At the foot of the chessboard mountain in the south of Yarkand City is a vast pasture, at this time it is late autumn, the pasture grass is yellowing, and the morning sun gilds the whole pasture with a layer of gold; Early in the morning, from the south gate of Yarkand City, a large group of cattle and sheep, about 500 old and weak drove cattle and sheep to this pasture, the cattle and sheep slowly dispersed under the drive of the herdsmen, and there were thousands of heads from a distance, some slightly younger shepherds carried scimitars and rode horses back and forth on the edge of the herd, looking into the distance vigilantly, and from time to time drove back the cattle and sheep that went out of the range, and the older shepherds began to harvest pasture grass to prepare for the winter; It looks like a peaceful scene of grassland life, as if no one notices the enemy army lurking behind the hills.

"General, can you do it now?" , Mingrui leaned over to Zhaohui and asked softly.

"Wait a little longer, send someone to Gao Tianxi to see if there is any change between the rebel and yesterday?" , Zhaohui put the clairvoyant mirror in front of him and patiently observed, this group of herdsmen looked relaxed, talking and laughing, and there didn't seem to be much of a problem.

"Yes!" , the guard Tetong led the order to personally gallop to the direction where Gao Tianxi's army was, about a stick of incense, Tetong came back and reported, "General Qiqi, the enemy camp is no different today, General Gao is attacking the rebel defense line, and there are a lot of familiar faces on the opposite side!" ”

"yes, got it!" Zhao Hui saw from the clairvoyant mirror that perhaps it was because there was nothing unusual for so long, and the herdsmen became relaxed, and the guards guarding the edge began to take the leather bag full of mare's milk wine from their waists and drank it, and threw the leather bag around from time to time, and after a while everyone drank a few sips; After drinking, the guards were not as cautious as they had been at first, and several herdsmen, seeing the fertile pasture on the other side of the river, drove hundreds of cattle and sheep across the only bridge over the river, and the guards drank twice when they saw this, and the herdsmen continued to cross the bridge with a disapproving smile; The guards finally remembered their duties, and ran to the bridge to argue with the herdsmen, and the herdsmen gradually became depressed, and the listless greeters drove the cattle and sheep back to the river, and the cattle and sheep in front wanted to come back, and the cattle and sheep in the back wanted to pass, and the bridge was suddenly in chaos; Now is the time! Zhao Hui keenly spotted the fighter plane, and suddenly put away the clairvoyant mirror, "Fire the cannon, order the three grids to dispatch immediately!" Special amount, Eshi! Let everyone hurry up and get ready to answer the three squares! ”

"The Last General's Order!" , With a cannon sound, Sange led five hundred cavalry out from behind the hill, and Sange pulled out the treasure knife that he was assigned to in the palace when he was Lan Ling's guard and rushed to the front, "Sons, don't care about those herdsmen, quickly rush across the bridge with me to rob the cattle and sheep of the traitors!" ”

"Kill!" The thunderous sound of horses' hooves shattered the peace of the grassland, and the herdsmen who had just crossed the river did not have time to gather their cattle and sheep and hurried to the bridge, but they were blocked by the crowded cattle and sheep on the bridge, so they jumped directly into the reasonable and desperately swam to the other side of the river despite the cold of the river, and the guards immediately pulled out their horns and whined, but the city did not see the slightest reaction.

Sange brandished his sword and slashed left and right, and after a while, he rushed to the bridge, and the cattle and sheep on the bridge fell into the water and wailed. "Hurry, hurry, hurry!" , Zhaohui has long seen that the south gate of Yarkand City is still open, if he can take the opportunity to rush into the city today, then the overall situation can be decided! Hurriedly urged the special pass and the Eshi army to follow.

"Ahh , The situation in the battlefield suddenly changed, and the five hundred people under the three grids were just about to cross the bridge when the bridge collapsed with a bang, and dozens of people at the end fell into the water.

"Oh no, it's a trick!" Before Zhaohui finished speaking, he saw a cannon fire at the head of Yarkand City, and thousands of men and horses rushed out of the south gate and surrounded the three grids. The three grids are brave, one horse takes the lead with his soldiers and horses to rush left and right, and from time to time the cavalry of Mu Zhuolun is chopped off by him; However, the disparity between the crowd and the more than 400 people he led across the river lost half of their efforts in a short time; Zhao Hui looked at the depth of the river, "All the soldiers followed me across the river to rescue Sange!" ”

As soon as they arrived at the river, they saw a group of men and horses rushing out from the south to cut the Qing army into several sections, and Zhaohui and Tetonge and others also fell into a bitter battle; "General, retreat!" , Mingrui shouted with a blank face, "While the thieves on the other side of the river are still being dragged by the three deputy capitals, let's go quickly, it will be too late when they finish solving the problem and rush over!" ”

"General, you take people to go first, and Eshi and I will cut off the road for you!" , Tetong returned to block an oncoming spear and then slashed the enemy off his horse with a backhand, and he couldn't care about the blood on his face and turned his head to Zhaohui and said, "General, are there more than 2,000 people in the battalion, if you fall here, the whole army will be wiped out!" ”

Glancing hatefully at the yellow-shirted woman who was the leader of the enemy army, Zhaohui pulled out his horse and turned back, "The two of you can't fall in love with each other, just go back to the camp if you stop the enemy army a little!" After that, he ran to the camp with his men, and he knew that it was basically impossible for these two people to come back.

"The Tartars are really fierce, more than 5,000 people surrounded 400 people, and they haven't solved it after fighting for so long!" , Lu Feiqing, who was watching the battle on the city wall, sighed.

"Chief helmsman, I'll go down and help too!" , Wei Chunhua couldn't hold it back for a long time.

"I've been waiting for so long, it's time to go down and join in the fun!" , Chen Jialuo took everyone down to the city and rushed over, and when he arrived on the battlefield, Lu Feiqing's swordsmanship was not as good as Zhang Jin's strong men, only to see Zhang Jin and Yang Chengxie wielding iron rods and maces on the left and right, and the three grids were caught off guard by Yang Chengxie's stick and fell off the horse, and before they could scream, they were trampled into meat by the horses.

The Qing army here was solved, Huo Qingtong immediately led people to rush to the other side of the river, and in less than half an hour, Tetong and Eshi were killed one after another, and the broken team was swept away by Huo Qingtong and others.

"It's a pity that I didn't catch Zhaohui!" , Huo Qingtong looked at the distant Daxu and said hatefully.

"Don't worry, after losing so many men and horses, and running out of food and grass, he won't be able to hold on for long!" , Chen Jialuo comforted.

"Hmm." , Huo Qingtong nodded, and continued to chase Zhaohui with the men and horses, Zhaohui had already retreated into the camp, gathered the defeated army and Gao Tianxi's subordinates to defend the camp together, and the camp was tightly surrounded by tens of thousands of Mu Zhuolun's people.

Because of the recall of the garrison on the banks of the Blackwater River, this siege is historically known as the Siege of the Blackwater Battalion.

"Qingtong has worked hard these days, and I can finally sleep peacefully tonight!" , Chen Jialuo said with a smile, and after a while, he didn't hear a reply, so he turned his head suspiciously, just in time to see Huo Qingtong's eyes closed and falling back.

The process of the battle and the strength of the troops refer to some papers on the siege of the Heishui camp, if according to Jin Yong, the Qing army had tens of thousands of people, Mu Zhuolun would have been beaten into slag a long time ago. PS: Thanks for not being able to £ days
