Chapter 303: The situation is complicated

Gao Yihuan clenched his fists and scanned the entire mine, there were corpses everywhere, and the houses at the foot of the mountain were also burned by the Tartars.

The entire mine was destroyed by the Tartars, and more than 1,000 Wei troops guarding the mine were gone.

"Investigate the surroundings and see if there's any alive?" The joints of Gao Yihuan's hands sounded, and the anger in his words could be felt by many generals.

When the corporal hurriedly went to investigate, the entire mine was indeed slaughtered by the Tartars, but most of the dead were women and the old and weak, and some of the soldiers and young men should have been taken away by the Tartars.

This further corroborates Gao Yihuan's previous judgment, Duoduo wants to attack the city with the people, but he doesn't have much food, so as long as it is useful and strong, the useless ones are driven over and killed.

At this time, Wang Deren led the soldiers to carry over a headless corpse wearing iron armor and put it in front of Gao Yihuan, and then untied a bloodstained waist card, presented it to Gao Yihuan, and said heavily: "Jie Shuai, it is Gao Zugui of the mine protection team." ”

Gao Yihuan took the military card, which read, "New Attached Battalion, Deputy Lieutenant Gao Zugui of Part B", and his face suddenly sank like water.

The deceased person was a mine protection general arranged by Gao Yihuan, and he was Gao Yihuan's uncle according to his generation.

Baofeng is in the hinterland of Henan, and the surrounding bandits and bandits have long been surrounded and suppressed, even if they are not exterminated, they have to sell him Gao Yihuan a face, and they dare not fight the idea of the mine.

This was originally a safe place, but I didn't want the Tartars to be able to quietly get out of Longmen Pass, and then after Rulin, they suddenly killed Baofeng and destroyed Gao Yihuan's mine.

This made Gao Yihuan a little puzzled, he encouraged with his cheeks, "Lift it down and find the first level of thick burial!" ”

Wang Deren immediately waved his hand, and several soldiers carried the body away.

Gao Yihuan said with a calm face, "Is there anything else you have discovered?" ”

"Marshal, the soldiers just counted and found that the corpses of the soldiers were less than five hundred. There should be five hundred, I don't know if they were captured or escaped! Wang Deren hugged his fists.

"Send scouts to expand the search area, such a large mine, it is impossible to have no live mouth!" Gao Yihuan's eyes were red, "In addition, let the soldiers dispose of the corpses, so that the tragic deaths can rest in peace as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!" Wang Deren clenched his fists to receive the order, and then said: "Jie Shuai, the humble post just sent down a lot of corpses of the Shun army, nearly a thousand people, and they have not been beheaded!" ”

Gao Yihuan was slightly stunned, "Shunjun's corpse? ”

How can there be a Shun army in the mine? Gao Yihuan frowned, as if he had caught a clue, but he still needed more information to support his thoughts.

Now his eyes were dark, and he was eager to know more information, such as how many people had come from the Tartars, and when they had left, and why there were nearly a thousand corpses of Shunjun in the mine.

Gao Yihuan said with a gloomy face: "Where did the wolf smoke go, did you find it?" ”

"Back to the marshal, the humble post has already sent someone to investigate!" Jin Shenghuan said hurriedly.

At this moment, a pair of cavalry in the distance suddenly rushed towards the mountain, attracting Gao Yihuan's gaze.

The cavalry gradually approached from afar, and after a short time, they galloped not far in front of Gao Yihuan, and a very embarrassed figure turned over and dismounted before the scouts, and galloped to Gao Yihuan's horse, pounced and bowed down.

The man was wearing a tattered piece of iron armor, and there were multiple wounds on his body, and the blood had solidified on his body, which had turned jet black.

Looking at his appearance, you know that it must have gone through a bloody battle, and there are still living people in such a large mine.

"Dashuai, avenge the brothers!" As soon as he bowed down, he wept bitterly and his voice choked.

Jin Shenghuan hurriedly turned over and dismounted, "What's the matter?" You can tell the festival marshal! ”

Gao Yihuan saw the person coming, a little reflective, it seemed to be the first batch of students in the martial arts hall, he tried hard to recall, and finally remembered his name, so he turned over and dismounted, helped him up, and asked in a deep voice: "Sun Grade, what's going on here." Ben Shuai got the news and rushed to it immediately, why did it only take six days for the mine to become like this? ”

"Returning to the marshal, Liu Zhong, the commander of the Ruzhou town of the straight lady thief, surrendered to the Tartars. The brethren were unprepared, and were killed by Tartar and Liu Zhong, and most of them were killed in battle. Only the lowly led some miners and craftsmen escaped from the back mountain. Sun Cheng cried.

Gao Yihuan listened, and was instantly furious, he said how the Tartars killed Baofeng, there was no one to warn him along the way, and when the Tartars arrived in Baofeng, he received the news, it turned out that Liu Zhong surrendered Duoduo.

"How did Liu Zhong and Tartar take the mine?" Gao Yihuan couldn't hide his anger.

Sun Chengcheng said sadly: "I don't know the specific situation, but I know that someone came to the mine to ask for help, saying that there were thieves attacking the county seat, and after the deputy lieutenant discussed with a few colleagues, he asked Zhou Zhanglu to take three hundred brothers and more than two thousand miners to the rescue." When it was dark, there was a defeated army in the county town and fled to the mine, and the deputy lieutenant and the brothers did not suspect it when they saw that it was the general of Baofeng County, but they did not expect that they had already surrendered to the Tartars, so they were poured into the mines by the Tartars. That night, the mine was captured by the Tartars, and thousands of Tartars and more than 10,000 rebels blocked the road, and they broke through the resistance of the rebels from the back mountain before escaping from Ascension. ”

"How many escaped?" Gao Yihuan's face sank like water.

"There were only more than 2,000 people, and they broke out of the siege, and then they were chased by the Tartars for a while, and more than 500 people died. The lowly and the rest were trapped on a hill and never dared to descend the mountain. Sun Cheng choked up and said: "Dashuai, the brothers are miserable! ”

Gao Yihuan clenched his fists, "Do you know where Tartar and Liu Zhong are going?" How long has it been gone? ”

"I don't know what this lowly position is, but Tartar and Liu Zhong must have gone in the direction of Ruzhou Fucheng."

"How far is Ruzhou from here?" Gao Yihuan asked angrily.

"Jieshuai, about two hundred miles!" Jin Shenghuan replied.

Gao Yihuan turned his head and glanced at the corpses on the mine, and said through gritted teeth: "Wang Deren, I ordered the rear army to arrange for a thousand people to clean up the corpses, and the other departments followed Ben Shuai to kill Ruzhou." Ben Shuai wanted to pick off Liu Zhong's skin. ”

Since he brought the Tartars to slaughter the mines, and also built the corpses into the city landscape to humiliate Gao Yihuan, Gao Yihuan will definitely kill this thief and relieve the hatred in his heart.

Three days later, on the city of Ruzhou, there were many rebels and Tartar soldiers, and a tower-like man stood with a Han general in white armor, looking out from the city.

A day ago, a large number of Wei horse troops appeared outside the city, but as soon as the Qing cavalry left the city, the Wei army and horse army under the city immediately retreated.

Today, a large number of foot soldiers began to appear outside the city, and a group of Wei soldiers gathered outside the city, set up camp, and rushed to make equipment, posing as if they were going to attack the city.

"Look at that big face, Gao Yihuan is afraid that he came over in person!" The white armor will point to a large flag in the distance and smile to the left and right.

"Guogong, looking at the formation, there are a lot of people who come with Gao Yihuan. This person is famous for his revenge, and he will inevitably storm the city, are we asking for help from Prince Yu? "The tower-like man is Liu Zhong, but he is not as confident as Shen Zhixiang, the Duke of Xushun next to him.
