When Zhiwen returned to his camp, it was close to the dawn of Buddha, and seeing that the sky was about to brighten, he simply didn't sleep, and woke up Su Desulut, as well as Lin Yuan, Song Xiance and others one by one, and didn't say anything, just asked everyone to pack their luggage.

Sulut and Sude passed on this order suspiciously, and according to Zhiwen's instructions, sent sentry cavalry to keep a close eye on the movements of the Jin, and then began to pack their luggage and pack the camp together with the entire Sunit department and the Han people who supervised it.

The movement was a bit big, and it even alarmed the other Mongolian tribes living next to them, but at this moment Zhiwen couldn't take care of so much, even if the Jin people didn't order the withdrawal of the army, he would take the Sunit Department and the Han people under his command to evacuate the Daling River as soon as possible.

At present, the overall strength of their Sunit Department is the strongest, 5,000 people and horses plus nearly 10,000 Han people who are working, almost undamaged, there were scruples and hidden before, and now since they want to rush to meet Sun Kewang for the next move, there is no need to taboo anything, with the Mongolian tribes on their left and right, even if they find something wrong, they are powerless to intercept it.

When these Mongolian tribes were about to send someone to ask what was going on with the Sunit Ministry, the sentinels sent by Sunit to inquire about the news rushed back one after another, saying that the Great Bel Daishan had already held the Great Khan's warrant and ordered the Eight Banners to pull out the camp and return to Shengjing.

As for the Mongol tribes, they were disbanded on the spot and returned to the steppe.

The Han slaves who worked for them were ordered to follow the Dajin army on their own, and these Han people, except for those who followed the Sunit department, the rest of the people suffered heavy losses in this epidemic, and no more than 30% survived, and those who could barely walk, at most 20%.

The Jin people's order is obviously to let the Han people fend for themselves, and if they can still keep up with them, they can naturally continue to be enslaved.

Subsequently, the galloping Jin herald also arrived, conveying exactly the same meaning as the news heard by the Sunit sentinels, and the other Mongolian tribes who wanted to come to inquire about the news also gave up their thoughts and began to pack their bags.

Just when the other departments had just begun to pack, including the Jin people, they were also in a hurry, the Sunit department had already been cleaned up, and after the two of them gave their own orders, the brigade of 15,000 people roared and began to evacuate the Daling River.

......

At the head of the city of Dalinghe, the Ming army stationed in the city obviously also discovered the abnormality in the Houjin camp, especially when the Sunit Department pulled out the camp and retreated, the momentum was not small, and soon, someone flew to report the supreme commander in the city - the young master of the Ming Dynasty, the general of the Liao Qianfeng Yin, and the governor of the left army, Zu Dashou.

"Young Master, great joy, great joy." Zu Dashou has a lot of titles, but he still likes the title of young master the most, and the people below do what he likes, not calling him a general or a marshal, they all call him a young master, which sounds crepe and very stylish.

"What's the joy of?" Zu Dashou has not woken up yet, he was quite unhappy after being alarmed by the shouting, he has been exhausted these days, he has not slept well, and finally wants to sleep more, but he was disturbed by others.

Since the piers outside the city were all uprooted by Jiannu, they could no longer echo each other, so they could only defend to the death, and the reinforcements were also repulsed, the battle situation deteriorated again and again, and the plague was rampant in the city, with countless casualties, and if this continued, even the manpower to maintain the defense of the city head would be insufficient.

This made Zu Dashou very annoyed, originally there was enough food, he was very confident to stick to the Daling River and drag down Huang Taiji, but since Jiannu also moved out of the artillery, this confidence was discounted, and then the epidemic hit, and the dead and wounded in the city made him even less confident.

However, fortunately, the Jiannu outside the city were also hit by the plague, and it seemed that the situation was not less serious than theirs, and the offensive had been stopped for many days, which gave them a chance to breathe.

Zu Dashou is still a pity, it would be good if this epidemic came earlier, at that time, the earthen wall of the Jiannu trench had not yet been built, how could a few people run out and report to Ningyuan in Jinzhou, taking advantage of the Jiannu epidemic to help, maybe they could take a big advantage on them.

At this moment, the various fortifications of Jiannu have been completed, and it is not so simple to break out of the encirclement.

After a little tidying up, Zu Dashou put on a robe and walked out of the camp, he also lived in a tent in Dalinghe City, not that he was willing to share weal and woe with ordinary soldiers, but that Dalinghe was built in a hurry, and it was too late to build his mansion, so Jiannu called.

"Master Young Master," a guerrilla came to report the news, with a flattering smile on his face, "Jiannu is withdrawing the army, which should be a happy event." ”

Jiannu withdrew? Zu Dashou was slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted, presumably because of the plague, there were too many injuries and illnesses, and he couldn't afford to spend it, in this case, evacuation was a good choice.

"Let's go up town with me."

"Young Master, please come with me, the last general only noticed that the camp outside the city was a little noisy, and it was only after a team of men and horses left that it was confirmed."

This guerrilla took Zu Dashou to the top of the city, facing the camp outside the city, which was where the Sunit Department was located.

On both sides of the clearing, it was obviously very busy, except for a small number of vigilant soldiers, most of them were busy cleaning up.

There were a large number of dead bodies, lying motionless on the ground, and some figures slowly squirming on the ground, I don't know if they were making a final struggle before they died, or begging the sick to take them, but no one seemed to pay attention.

This scene is so familiar, Zu Dashou secretly sighed, this plague is really indistinguishable from friend and foe, and the scourge is not shallow, all because the same scene is also in Dalinghe City, and even because the city occupies insufficient land and there are too many dead people, it cannot be buried in time, and the scene is even more unbearable than outside the city, and the smell is stinking.

Zu Dashou, who sighed in his heart, did not notice anything abnormal, and the vacant land vacated after the withdrawal of the army in front of him did not have a single dead body except for a little sundries.

"My lord, do you want to take advantage of the evacuation of Jiannu to send troops out of the city and fight a few battles?" The guerrilla next to him suggested.

Zu Dashou groaned slightly, to be honest, he was still a little tempted by this suggestion, he didn't have to take Jiannu to open the knife, but it was still possible to find a Mongolian Tartar to vent his fire.

However, as soon as he saw the earthen wall and ditch, he thought about his already stretched manpower, so he gave up this thought, "Forget it, we are also too busy to take care of ourselves, just hold on to the city." ”

After saying that, he waved his robe, turned around and went down to the city, explaining this guerrilla as he went, "After all the Jiannu retreat, send some men and horses out of the city and fly to Ningyuan, Jinzhou." ”

"Yes, my lord, the last general will take orders."

After walking a few more steps, Zu Dashou sighed, "Forget it, Ning Yuan doesn't have to go there, I will write a letter to explain the situation here in detail, and you ask the Jinzhou guard to transfer it to Ning Yuan's Governor Sun." ”
