Chapter 303: The Storm Rises Again
The night is soft. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoThe moonlight is hazy, the stars are blurred, the lights are brilliant, the colorful light is intertwined, and the silver is shining. The wind flew softly and softly, and the huge wings caressed everything kindly. The moonlight, the starlight and the breeze, are intertwined into a network of infinite charm, wrapping everything in the world, and everything seems so warm and peaceful.
"Drive!" "Drive!" "Drive!" Abrupt shouts and galloping horses' hooves sounded, at this time a team of Ming soldiers were protecting a man in black galloping towards Jinzhou City, the sound of horse whips rang out constantly, the war horses accelerated the pace of running because of the pain, for a while, the dust and smoke were billowing, the beautiful picture seemed to be slowly torn apart, behind them, the sound of bigger horses' hooves sounded, and the huge smoke and dust showed that there were more cavalry behind them.
"They're about to catch up! Captain Guo Qi! A soldier said.
"That's it! The five of you continue to escort this brother of Zhongxingwei to Jinzhou, and be sure to send the information to the Manchu General Army! The rest of the brothers will come with me and lead them away! Do you understand? Then Guo Qi said.
"Flag Commander! This...... "They knew that these brothers of theirs were going, and they really couldn't come back.
"Less nonsense! That's it! Other than that...... Besides, we can't come back! Please also ask my brother to help take care of my family! Guo Qichang smiled bitterly, and then quickly turned the horse's head and said, "Go!" Brethren! After saying that, he quickly rushed back.
"Brothers! Treasure! The other four said that they cherished, and followed without hesitation.
Enduring the pain, they continued towards Jinzhou, and soon after, they heard an explosion, thinking that their brother had pulled the grenade on his body, and they didn't know whether it was suicide or killing, they just hoped that they would have a chance to see each other again.
"Drive!" With a whip of the whip, the rest of the people sped up, "Bang! "Bang!" "Bang!" Sudden gunshots rang out, and the Ming soldiers who were still galloping suddenly fell off their horses and lay on the ground, because of the huge impact they didn't understand what was going on at once, and after they calmed down, they saw in a daze that there was a cavalry not far in front of them, and their costumes were more peculiar, only to see some wearing cylindrical curly hats, some wearing black hats, they were carrying cross-body rifles on their backs, and sabers were hanging from their waistsγγγγγγ But soon, they saw the cavalry on the other side move, rushing towards them quickly, and before they could take up their weapons to resist, a sharp blade had pierced their chests, and slowly, blood began to flow out, and their vision began to blur even more, and finally, one by one, they fell down with reluctance and regret.
"It's finally time to catch up!" Humanity at the forefront.
Soon, the cavalry in the rear also arrived, and looked at the six corpses that fell to the ground and slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay!" It's fine!"
The leader of this cavalry looked at him, didn't say anything, then got on his horse and left quickly with his own people, looking at the few people who had left in the dust, "These yellow-haired ghosts! Angry bird! After speaking, he looked at the ground and continued: "Carry it away!" Clean it up! Don't let the Ming army find out! β
"Yes!" Soon his subordinates came out of the ranks and removed the bodies of the dead Ming soldiers and cleaned them up.
At this time, on the wall of Jinzhou City, Man Gui looked at the dark outside of the city, a trace of anxiety climbed his brow, and he turned around and asked, "Hasn't a single team of the flag team sent out to investigate recently returned?" β
"Yes! Total Soldiers! The soldier replied.
"Full of soldiers! Our Zhongxingwei has not had any information back from the Tartar side recently! I suspect something might be going on over there! A man beside Man Gui.
Man Gui's brows furrowed even tighter after hearing this, and then asked, "What about the Bandung Commercial Bank?" β
"We've sent someone to ask before! They didn't get any news back! Recently, there is no supply over there! The man continued.
"Looks like there's going to be some big move on the Tartars' side!" Man Gui shook his head, and then said, "Lin Baihu, you quickly send a message to Ning Yuan, so that Governor Yuan can be prepared!" And the Jingshi side has to be notified! "Man Gui said.
Lin Baihu nodded, and then saluted and was about to leave, at this time, not far from the city, there was a sudden rumbling sound of horses' hooves, and among the smoke and dust, Lin Baihu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "This is our people back?" β
Man Gui looked into the distance, frowned and said, "No! Then he ordered: "All soldiers enter combat readiness!" Artillery ready! β
Soon, the originally calm city wall began to be busy, a piece of defensive equipment was moved to the city wall, the archers bent their bows and arrows, the cold arrows were facing the distance, and the Ming artillery of the city wall also began to adjust the range and angle, and opened its bloody mouth quietly, quietly waiting for their prey.
Soon, Man Gui saw the true faces of these people clearly, looking at these strange soldiers, Man Gui was stunned, "Could it be that it's not a Tartar?" "It turned out that none of these soldiers wore the armor of the Tartar soldiers, and they basically didn't even wear armor, which made Man Gui also make the Ming army defending the city very curious, how can they resist damage without armor? However, these people were obviously not good people, because the Ming army found that each enemy had a musket in his hand, and in front of the infantry and cavalry, there were at least thirty artillery pieces.
"Not a Tartar? Could it be yellow or red? Man Gui was stunned, the previous war had already made him know that the enemy outside the Ming Dynasty now has more than Tartars, and there are also these so-called two cents.
"Ready! Fire! Man Gui ordered.
The flag waved, and then, the artillery of the city defense roared, the rumbling artillery seemed to disrupt the enemy army under the city at once, but the opponent quickly adjusted the formation, although their artillery range is not as good as the Ming army, but the speed of movement is very fast, can easily open more Ming artillery attacks, and then after entering the firing range began to counterattack, the attack of fifty artillery guns should not be underestimated, for a time, the artillery fire, the quiet night was completely broken, Liaodong, which had been quiet for several years, opened the war machine again.
A fierce battle began, Jinzhou City in a hurry to meet the battle, with the roar of artillery, the alarm in Jinzhou City also sounded, all the Ming defenders have entered their respective posts to meet the war, with the beginning of the war, the news of the war in Jinzhou also began to transmit to Ningyuan and the heart of the Ming Kingdomγγγγγγγ
