Chapter 591: Late Night Movement

Hauge had to slow down his horse again, there was both anger and a trace of fear coming out of his heart, Amin's vicious methods made his back can't help but chill, as for the palace, as well as the property on the mansions, he can't escape the control of this guy.

"Lord Belle, except for the north gate where we came in earlier, the rest are still good and can be used, and the north gate servants have arranged for someone to repair them, but the materials are not complete for a while, so we can only do it tonight."

"I know, send more people to guard the north gate, and the rest of the city gates will be closed." Hauge Road.

"The Great Khan's palace, several gates have been destroyed, Lord Belle, do you think you want to send troops to guard it?"

Hauge thought for a while and instructed his subordinates, "Send one or two Niu Lu to guard Amma's dormitory, study and other places, and beware of fires, and the rest of the venues don't have to go through a lot of trouble." ”

As he expected, whether it was the palace or the mansion of the beyle, including himself, not only were all the people killed, but there was not a single thing left, and they were all looted.

Especially in the palace, Amin's house is estimated to be convenient for transporting money and food by chariots and horses, several gates have been destroyed, and there is nothing worth guarding in the territory of Nuodadi, Haoge has the intention not to arrange soldiers to guard, but he is afraid of fire, so he draws part of the limited troops into the palace.

Shengjing City turned around in a circle, and what surprised Haoge a little was that there were several city gates, except for the north gate being destroyed, the rest of the city gates were not damaged at all, and they could still be used, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, there were city gates available, and the pressure on defense was greatly reduced, so he didn't have to worry about being touched in the middle of the night.

In addition, there are not as many people who died in Shengjing City as he thought, in addition to the north gate, there are also a few other places where more people die, such as the imperial palace, and the rest of the places are not so tragic, but there are only some corpses scattered and scattered.

Like Hauge's own mansion, there are indeed a lot of dead people, but it is not so bloody, and he can still live in it after cleaning it up, and he doesn't have to sleep in the open, which also makes him quite satisfied.

Thinking about it, Ama and himself took away a lot of people, there is not much left in Shengjing City, how can it be that the city is full of blood, maybe the north gate is a terrifying scene that Amin deliberately created, just to demonstrate to himself.

"Does the master have any other orders?" The subordinate asked again.

"Arrange a few more cattle records to patrol the night, and if there is any abnormal movement, it can also alert everyone." Haug was quite vigilant, and although he believed that there was no one else in the city but them, there was still a night watchman, and in any case, all these years of fighting had not been in vain.

As for cleaning up the entire Shengjing City, with their 8,000 troops, they still have to defend the city, I'm afraid it is not enough, Haoge has already decided to arrange people to go to the surrounding Niulu tomorrow and gather some people to come to Shengjing to clean up, and the people in Shengjing City may not all be dead, and some of them have run out, and they should be able to come back.

"Hey, the minion will arrange it." After his subordinates retired, a wave of tiredness hit Hauge, and his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't lift them.

On the way back to Shengjing, in addition to letting the horses rest and rest a little, they rushed all the way almost non-stop, even if Haoge was young and strong, he couldn't stand it at this time, and he didn't care about the news to Huang Taiji that made him even more annoyed, so he quickly found a room and fell asleep.

Similar to Hauge's situation, the 8,000 soldiers who had made the long journey from Hetuara were also tired, except for the night watchmen who forced themselves to walk around the streets, and the guards who guarded the city gates in turn, and the rest of them quickly fell asleep.

"It's almost over, Captain Li, it's already the second half of the night." In the darkness, a voice asked in a low voice.

"Well, send a signal, let the brothers come out, and get ready to act." Li Dingguo replied, his voice echoing in the small space.

After a while, the bricks of the stove were loosened, and a hand stretched out, and a few bricks were opened, revealing a small hole that only allowed one person to enter and exit, and more than ten people came out of the hole one after another, Li Dingguo was among them, and someone began to carry things out of the cellar.

"Meow woo!" one of the dozen or so people opened his mouth, and a vivid cat meow was heard far away in the middle of the night, and then the same cat meow was echoed outside the house.

"Captain Li, the brothers are ready, do you want to start acting now?" Someone asked, when the cat's meow outside the room fell.

"Don't worry," Li Dingguo replied, and asked another person, "I heard that there are people patrolling the night in Jiannu, haven't I?" ”

"That's right, Captain Lee." The man was evidently adept at listening, "Almost every hour or so, there will be a slave passing by the street in front of the house, and at most half a pillar of incense, and they should come again." ”

"How many people are there to patrol the night, can you hear it?" Li Dingguo asked again.

"About a hundred."

"Okay, let's wait for half a pillar of incense." Li Dingguo said to the man who learned to bark, "You tell the brothers in the other houses, listen to my orders after half a pillar of incense, release arrows together, and leave this team of Jiannu, by the way, let them all change to longbows and hard arrows, so as to kill with one blow, and don't let them make a noise and alarm others." ”

"Yes." The man turned his head and stuck his head out of the window, and a few more cat meows.

That's right, this is Li Dingguo's trick.

His idea was naturally to use the news of the fall of Shengjing to lure Hauge out of Hetuala, so that he would only intercept and kill those who fled south, but did not care about those who fled to the north of Shengjing.

Originally, Li Dingguo wanted to ambush in the middle of the road, but between Shengjing and Hetuala, the terrain was flat, and the location of the ambush was not ideal, so he had specially seen it on the way to Shengjing.

If there is no geographical advantage, if you force the attack, the troops may not have an advantage, and the lazy mercenaries who are only suitable for guerrillas, plus the salt field guards who have just formed and have not yet seen a hard battle, may not be the elite opponents of the Eight Banners.

In addition to a slight advantage at the beginning, I am afraid that the rest will have to fight hard, so that no matter whether you win or lose, you will suffer heavy losses, which is against Li Dingguo's original intention.

It was because he decisively abandoned the idea of half an ambush and made an idea here in Shengjing.

Allowing the mercenaries to slaughter the city was to empty Shengjing, but they were not allowed to set it on fire, in order to achieve the current goal - to hide some of the soldiers in Shengjing City.

Before coming to Liaodong, Li Dingguo did his homework seriously and knew that the large and small cities in this area of Liaodong, except for the Jin people's own ancestral land Hetuala, the rest were all built by the original Han people in Liaodong.

That is, the Han city, then the custom of the Han people in the north - to build a cellar of various sizes in their own courtyard to store grain and vegetables, and even for Tibetans in times of danger - should have existed.
