Chapter 53: Cornered

"Childe! All the people have crossed the bridge, do you want to keep going! ”

After all the people crossed the bridge, Wang Yantong reported to Sima Yu. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Well, send a few brothers to bring them back to Kirin Town"

Sima Yu nodded when he heard this, and then looked at Jin Laosan and the others on the ground and ordered.

"Yes, Childe!"

For Jin Laosan and the others, Sima Yu was a little curious in his heart.

Judging from the moves and routines of this group of people just now, they obviously learned some martial arts, and they are very similar to the Bajiquan that Sima Yu learned in later generations.

Bajiquan is known for its strength, simplicity and rapid movements, and is known as "Wen has Tai Chi to calm the world, and Wu has eight poles to set the world".

This set of boxing techniques may not be commendable in the eyes of top generals such as Wang Yantong, but if it can be popularized in the army, it will greatly improve the melee combat ability of the officers and men in the army, which can have a great advantage in the small-scale battles between the two armies.

Moreover, with Jin Laosan's strength just now, he can completely compare with Pei Wei and other generals in the middle stage of body refining, it is a pity to kill!

Therefore, Sima Yu did not plan to deal with Jin Laosan and the others on the spot, but asked people to bring them back to Qilin Town for later use.

After arranging for people to send Jin Laosan and the others back to Qilin Town, Sima Yu and the others set off again and galloped towards the center of the Jinzhuwan Plain.

Baiyun Town, located in the northeast of the Jinzhuwan Plain, covers an area of 4 square kilometers, with a population of more than 50,000 in the town, and is the family residence of Bai Yunfei, a general under Zhang Xianzhong.

There are 2,000 private soldiers of the Bai family in Baiyun Town, all of whom are new troops, and the original 6,000 soldiers have been taken by Bai Yunfei to help Luzhou City.

At this time, the gate of Baiyun Town was closed, and less than a mile outside the city, a group of thousands of displaced people were hurrying towards Baiyun Town.

"I am Su Yong, the head of Baosheng Village, and I also ask the adults above to do well and let the people in my village in!"

When the group came to the outside of Baiyun Town, a middle-aged man with a resolute face and a goatee raised his voice towards the guards on the city wall.

"Baiyun Town is the residence of General Bai Yunfei, how can you wait for the homeless people who don't know where they came to come to come and go at will, hurry up and leave, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"

On the city tower, a general showed his head, looked at the middle-aged man below and shouted loudly, and after speaking, he also commanded the soldiers behind him to draw their longbows and aim at the many homeless people below.

For these private soldiers of the Bai family who stayed in Baiyun Town, defending Baiyun Town, protecting Bai Yunfei's family and property is the greatest credit, as for the life and death of the displaced people below, what do they have to do with it!

Moreover, there is an army of pigtails raging outside, and they have closed the gates all day long, and they dare not open them easily.

"Uncle, this Great Western Army is really vain, empty territory, but in the face of the Great Qing Army, but there is no resistance, let it rage, the local guards are completely disregarding the life and death of the people, just to protect themselves, from this point of view, the Great Western Army may not be able to support much time. With such a state of decay, it is no wonder that Sima Yu took advantage of the chaos to attack the sixteen villages in succession."

In the crowd, a handsome young man in light armor looked at the Baiyun Town guard above, and then whispered to the middle-aged man standing in front of him.

This handsome young man Hao Ran is Xiang Pet, and the middle-aged man in front of him is Xiang Lang, the former mayor of Xiangjia Town, next to Xiang Pet is Xiang Chong and Xiang Tiao, as well as more than a dozen guards who ran away with them.

After leaving Xiangjia Town that day, Xiang Lang and Xiang Pet and other three brothers led dozens of guards all the way along the northeast direction, preparing to go to see the situation in Luzhou City and Daxi.

However, what they saw in their eyes was a great disappointment.

The entire Onishi regime's sphere of influence was displaced, and there were fleeing refugees everywhere, and the powerful and defenders in various places did not pay attention to this, and they only wanted to protect themselves.

When they went to Baosheng Village to rest, the people of the Xiang family encountered the Daqing Iron Cavalry that was raging in the Daxi sphere of influence, and the Zhuang Dingpu organized by Su Yong was scattered by the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry as soon as they came into contact, and fled all the way to Baiyun Town, and even the war horses had already been abandoned by them.

"It's not that the Great Western Army is too weak, but that the Qing Army is too strong! Zhang Xianzhong and the others must also know the situation in the current territory, but they are powerless! Xiang Lang was silent for a while before he sighed.

After the battle of Gyala Jiazhen ended, Xiang Lang knew that Xiangjia Town would no longer be independent of Qilin Town, and he was ready to surrender to Sima Yu in his heart.

However, after the end of the war, Sima Yu's delay in making a statement made Xiang Lang feel snubbed in his heart.

Only then did he decide to leave, but what he saw and heard along the way, the decay of Daxi and the strength of the Daqing Iron Cavalry couldn't help but make Xiang Lang feel a little depressed in his heart.

If this development continues, in the near future, the entire territory and coastal areas of Daxi will be owned by the Qing Dynasty. Do you want to serve this Qing Dynasty?

As a dignified man from a Han family, I am afraid that the entire Xiang family will not be able to accept such a barbarian surrender to the Qing Dynasty!

"Village Chief Su Yong, I'm afraid that the guards of Baiyun Town will not accept us, it's too late to escape at this time, instead of waiting for death, we might as well go to that mountain to defend ourselves, and we may be able to resist one or two by virtue of our geographical advantages."

However, Xiang Lang was a resolute person after all, and quickly put away the frustration in his heart and suggested to Su Yong.

"That's all there is to do now! Walk! ”

Su Yong couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, said with a wry smile on his face, and immediately led people to a small hill outside Baiyun Town.

Most of the fleeing Shengbao villagers were women and children, and it was like a fool's dream to resist the attack of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, and this attitude could only be done to the best of their ability, and it was probably unknown how many people would escape from the tiger's mouth in the end.

Soon, Su Yong and others led more than 1,000 homeless people to climb the hillside, and the remaining more than 300 young people armed with clubs, spears and other rudimentary weapons blocked the front, protecting the old and weak women and children behind them.

In the formation, the three brothers Xiang Chong, Xiang Chong, and Xiang Tiao also led the only 15 remaining guards in front of the formation, and it was impossible for them to ignore Xiang Lang in the rear.

Therefore, in this battle, they and the life and death of many people in Shengbao Village are on the front line, and they should fight to the death.

"Boom!"

Just when Su Yong led the people of Baosheng Village to climb the small hillside, there was a slight tremor in the open space outside Baiyun Town, and with the rumbling sound of iron hooves, hundreds of iron horsemen wearing blue armor rolled over.

"Stop"

The vigorous cavalry galloped to the small soil slope, when the first cavalry general gave an order, hundreds of Eight Banner cavalry behind him immediately reined in their horses and stopped their bodies, and the army did not see the slightest panic between the rapid stops, which shows that this Eight Banners Iron Cavalry is really a well-trained elite division.

On the small dirt slope, Su Yong, Xiang Lang and others, who were waiting intently, were even more shocked by the momentum of the Eight Banners Iron Horse.

With such an elite division, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under the command of Jin Ma Chao back then was probably nothing more than that!

In the face of such elite soldiers, the two armies have not yet fought, and the Shengbao villagers on the small soil slope have gradually collapsed.
