Chapter 675: Annihilation
At night, Azig, who had successfully taken over the defense of Shanhaiguan, was triumphant, sitting in the lobby of Dongluo City with the soldiers, drinking and having fun. accompanied the wine, as well as dozens of singers sent by Wu Sangui.
"Boom!"
After three rounds of drinking, holding the singer, Azig, who was drunk, suddenly heard a loud noise, which shook his eardrums and made the earth tremble.
"Did someone sneak attack?!"
Suddenly experiencing a drastic change, Azig immediately woke up from his drunkenness, pushed away the singer beside him, grabbed a sergeant who was guarding, and ordered him to go to find out what had happened.
"Boom!"
The sergeant had just rushed out of the lobby when there were two louder bangs than before, and even the tiles on the roof of the lobby fell to the ground and became dusty.
A cow who was in charge of the arsenal came in a hurry to report that a fire suddenly broke out in one of the arsenals, and the fire spread, igniting the gunpowder in the arsenal and causing a large explosion. The Manchu sergeants guarding the arsenal were bombed and suffered heavy losses.
An explosion in an arsenal? Once the mountain of gunpowder is detonated, the consequences are unimaginable, far more serious than being attacked by the Ming army.
The roof of the lobby was already crumbling, Azig was taken aback, and dragged the guard, a low-ranking officer, out of the lobby, looking at the skyrocketing fire in the distance, seeing that this formation was indeed an explosion caused by the burning of gunpowder, and scolded angrily, "How do you take care of the arsenal?!" Did you let the spy in?! ”
The officer knew that he had committed a capital crime, and he was so frightened that he shook his hand again and again, "Prince Ying, we haven't even released a fly into the military arsenal, how dare we let the spies in?!" ”
Azig kicked him away and shouted, "That is, someone was ambushed in the arsenal before, and you missed the search?!" ”
The officer knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Prince Ying, we have carefully searched the arsenal, and even the gunpowder has been checked barrel by barrel, and no one is hidden!" ”
"Boom, boom!"
Again, there were three rings, and this time, the roof of the lobby was finally blown down, but fortunately, Azig dodged in time and was not crushed under the girder of the lobby. But several middle- and high-ranking officers who were drunk and collapsed in the lobby were stoned to death and buried in the ruins because they had no time to escape.
The power of the explosion was so amazing that it was far more damaging than the battlefield, and the situation was already so critical that once the arsenal was completely detonated, the piles of gunpowder would be enough to raze the entire city of Dongluo to the ground!
Azig did not dare to investigate the fault of detonating the gunpowder, let alone stay in Dongluo City any longer, so he hurriedly ran out of the hall and fled to the gate of Dongluo City.
Azig fled in a hurry with the white flag of Gushan Ezhen Turge, and all he passed was the Manchu soldiers who were crying and screaming from the bombing, and the screams were heart-rending and resounded in the sky.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
There were four loud bangs in a row, and the direction of the arsenal, both the warehouse and the barracks, was razed to the ground. When Azig fled to the city gate in disarray, he found that the city gate had also collapsed and he could not get out at all.
Azig and his party were in a state of death, and as the loud noise continued to sound, his hand shaking the horsewhip, and he almost fell off the horse.
He has experienced hundreds of battles, countless battles in his life, and is full of contempt for the Ming army and even Fang Yuan. Unexpectedly, just after the war began, he had not yet confronted Fang Yuan head-on, not only lost 10,000 Qing warriors, but even he himself had to die in this Shanhaiguan. What made him even more annoyed was that he didn't even figure out how to lose, he really couldn't look at it, and shouted at the sky, "God wants to kill me!" Heaven will kill me! ”
Zhengbai Qigu Mountain Ezhen Turge pulled his war horse to the death, and hurriedly suggested, "Prince Ying, the city gate has been blocked, quickly dismount, let's swim out of the river!" ”
Azig hurriedly dismounted and pulled Turg's arm, "I, I can't swim!" ”
Turg hurriedly ripped off his clothes, covered his mouth and nose for him, and said loudly, "I, rough and watery, I will escape with Prince Ying!" ”
The sound of explosions in the distance continued to sound, and the waves of explosions had already hit the east gate, Azig did not dare to hesitate any longer, and the two jumped into the water together.
Less than a quarter of an hour after the two of them entered the water, a huge explosion shock wave engulfed the city gate and the entire Dongluo City, and even the wall of the main city of Shanhaiguan near Dongluo City was affected and collapsed.
Azig and Turg finally escaped from the hellish and terrifying city of Dongluo after half an hour under the cover of the waterway. The two of them went ashore a mile outside of Dongluo City, and fell to the ground gasping for breath.
After a short rest, the rout that imitated the two escaped from the waterway gradually increased, and they gathered at Azig's side. As soon as Turg counted the sergeants who escaped from Dongluo City with the two of them, there were 300 people, in other words, the 10,000 soldiers that Azig brought into Dongluo City were nearly wiped out.
Azig, there are still hundreds of Manchu Qing rout soldiers have not rested for two quarters of an hour, shouting and killing all around, the people are shocked, obviously the Ming army first ambushed outside the city of Dongluo, found the whereabouts of everyone escaped, and chased and killed.
Azig, including these Manchu sergeants who fled back, threw away all the big and bulky knives, bows and arrows they carried with them in order to dive and escape, and now they suddenly encountered a surprise attack by the Ming army, most of the Manchu sergeants were unarmed, how to deal with the battle?!
"Da Da Da!"
"Capture Azig alive!"
The sound of the horses' hooves of the Ming army sounded densely, or the cavalry came to pursue, and the defeated soldiers of Azig, who lost their horses, estimated that they would not even be able to escape far, and they would be surrounded and annihilated.
Seeing the opportunity, Turg snatched the war knives of two or three sergeants, kept one for himself, gave one to Azig, and changed his military uniform with Azig, and said in a deep voice, "Prince Ying, the war will start in a while, I will grab a war horse, you get on the horse and escape first!" I'm coming to the Queen! ”
He pretended to be the identity of Azig, and he must be the target of the Ming army, where can there be any life? Azig was so moved that his eyes were full of tears, and before he could say it, the ambushed iron cavalry had arrived, and all the military uniforms that came were black and pressing, where was the Xuanning Iron Cavalry, it was clearly Fang Yuan's Xuanjia Iron Cavalry!
Turg pushed Azig away, wearing Azig's princely clothes, brandishing his war knife, and shouted, "Azig, the prince of the Great Qing Dynasty, is here, and the southern barbarians dare to come and fight to the death?!" ”
He shouted and pretended to be Azig, and the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry rushed straight towards him, and in an instant he scattered the full duty of the sergeants and began the slaughter.
Turg commanded seven or eight personal soldiers, desperately killed and wounded, and finally snatched a war horse, hurriedly handed the war horse to Azig, and said in a trembling voice, "Prince Ying, run away!" ”
Azig clenched Turg's hand with tears in his eyes, nodded heavily, and then turned over on his war horse, "Turg, good, good!" ”
He took advantage of the opportunity of the remaining remnants of the soldiers to entangle the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, whipped his horse, and fled to the official road single-handedly, and soon disappeared into the night.
Azig had escaped safely, and Turge's hanging heart had also fallen, but seeing that the Manchu soldiers who had escaped were almost wiped out by the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, he had no chance to escape.
In order to avoid being captured alive by the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry and humiliated, before the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry came to capture him alive, Turg could only choose to commit suicide with a horizontal knife and end his life.
