0400 Men's Day of Shame
When this general was still on the vine rope, Jia Min was angry with him.
At this time, the order of coming down, if it was arranged by him or even other people in the Fu Corps, it should be the princess of Chang'an first, the prince second, and then Lichun and other women. And finally it's these men.
If this general is the main general under the crown prince, he should be in charge of the palace at this time, and he will not come down until everyone has come down.
This is not only an exemplary role for the generals to take the lead, but also for the purpose of organizing and commanding in the back.
Now he is the first to come down, and it is obvious that he is a guy who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
As soon as he came, he was about to snatch the command, which showed that he was a person who was greedy for vanity and had a strong desire for power.
Now, he is only a rescued person, and he doesn't know much about the entire rescue plan. But anyone with a little self-knowledge will not snatch command at this time.
The only explanation is that he thinks that he is now saved and can take the credit for this rescue operation.
The second one to come down was the crown prince.
The prince was now only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, but now he looked like he was in his forties, and his face was full of haggardness.
After simply seeing the ceremony, he distributed clothes, food, water, and weapons such as bows and arrows to those who came down.
As for firearms, they were not given to them. If you give it to them, it won't necessarily work.
The speed of the people who descended was relatively slow, and they didn't have any decent training at first glance, which indirectly proved that they were not from Chang'an.
A total of 31 people came down, and no one came down again.
Wei Ruolan was not among them.
Jia Min's heart has been sinking.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, what about them in Chang'an?"
"Encountered the Tatars, they are responsible for covering us, and it is estimated that they have not yet arrived."
"What about Wei Ruolan?"
"Wei Ruolan sent us here just now, and now she hasn't come down, she must have gone to pick up them in Chang'an."
"Who arranged for Chang'an to cover you after the break?"
"Chang'an himself."
Although the prince said it, his voice was a little sloppy and flickering.
"How many people are there under Chang'an?"
"A dozen people."
"How many Tatars are there?"
"One hundred and sixty or seventy."
"How many people did you have when you entered the mountains?"
"It's these thirty-one people, all of them have withdrawn."
According to Lichun's information, there were originally a total of fifty-seven people in the mountain, and with Lichun and Wei Ruolan, the total number was fifty-nine.
Thirty-one people came down from the prince's side, that is to say, from the beginning of their entry into the mountain, to the present few months, not a single one was injured.
Now there are no new injuries on these people's bodies, which proves that they have not experienced the battle this time.
Excluding these thirty-one people, Chang'an should have twenty-six people in his hands, plus Wei Ruolan and Lichun, there are only twenty-eight people.
The prince already knew that there were only a dozen people under Chang'an, which proved that Chang'an's men had already lost more than a dozen people in battle.
Jia Min suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Qin Zhong, this retreat operation is under your full command. If anyone does not listen to the command, he will be killed. Be sure to save the crown prince. ”
"Now the situation has changed, and the situation here, the Tatar patrols will soon find out."
"The four rivers will soon rise, and they must be crossed before they rise."
"Time is running out now, and it's no longer possible to march just at night. Take advantage of the rain, go on the road for a while, day and night, day and night, and rush back. When you encounter Tatars, don't dwell on them for too long, get rid of them as soon as possible. ”
"Understood, Chief Min, but you?"
"I'm going to pick up His Royal Highness Chang'an and the chief of the guard. Tall and strong, you stay with me, I will go up first, and you will go up again. Battalion Commander Qin, set off immediately. ”
"Chief Min."
"Chief Min."
"This is an order, go immediately, do you want to disobey the order?"
"Also, you remember that today is a day of shame for men. If you encounter such a situation in the future, do not ask a woman to give you cover. Leave me a handful of guns, and let's go. ”
Qin Zhong and the others knew that it was useless to talk about it, so they had to organize a team and leave.
"Sir Min, give me the serial guns."
If you are tall and strong, you have to carry a chain of guns.
"No, tie it to my back, you wait down there first, when I tell you to go up. Go up again. ”
Jia Min said, and climbed up. When he went up to more than ten meters, he drew his dagger and cut the vine rope below.
"What are you doing, Sir?"
Gao Dazhuang and his soldiers finally understood that Commander Min was going alone.
"Gao Dazhuang, now I order you, immediately go and retreat after the troops, and return to Bukui to wait for me."
"Sir Min, we're not leaving."
"Don't talk nonsense, let's go."
After Jia Min finished speaking, he ignored the shouts of his own soldiers below, and climbed up by himself.
Because he carried a chain of guns and ammunition on his body, plus short guns, bows and arrows, etc., it was enough to have a hundred or dozens of catties.
Even for a person with abundant physical strength like Jia Min, it was extremely difficult to climb up, so he had to grit his teeth and persevere.
Rao is like this, every time he climbs, he has to find a foothold on the cliff and rest for a while before he can continue to climb.
It took twenty-six or seven minutes to finally get up.
The soldiers who had been waiting below looked at each other when they saw the long vine rope falling.
"Brothers, retreat. Don't let down Chief Min's wishes. Chief Min is invincible, and he will definitely be fine. Let's go back to Bukui and wait for him. ”
After speaking, the tall and strong took the lead and left.
The faces of the soldiers were covered with water, and they could no longer tell whether it was rain or tears.
Jia Min lay on the ground for seven or eight minutes before he turned over and began to assemble the chain of guns.
Due to the poor material technology, the back seat of this chain gun had to be made big and heavy. Plus the barrel and ammunition for replacement, it's even heavier.
In accordance with the procedures for the operation of firearms, these items were carried separately by two persons.
Although I only brought five barrels this time, the total weight was about 100 catties.
The Tatars here have an absolute advantage in numbers, and Jia Min has to count on the chain guns to play a major role.
Now, Jia Min regrets it very much.
He regretted that he had agreed to Chang'an to train in Yeduju.
If Chang'an didn't go to Yeduju to train the army, she would now be a delicate princess who spends money indiscriminately, bored every day, sneaking out of the palace and making a mess.
If she hadn't learned some skills to fight, she wouldn't have come to war. None of this is going to happen now.
At most, she will be anxious for her prince brother in the palace, without having to fight for her life, first rescue her brother from the siege, and then protect her brother in the mountains and jungles.
Now, there is no need to ask my brother to withdraw first, and he will stay behind.
What's even more hateful is that the prince's brother, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, really agreed to let his sister cover himself.
Even his own subordinates were brought out one by one intact. Ignoring his sister's life and death, he only cared about running for his life.
Not to mention who is superior or inferior to the prince and the princess, just from the two of them, you can see the ups and downs.
The princess's subordinate Li Chengbin sacrificed his life and forgot to die, and died heroically.
The general under the crown prince had just made peace with the person who answered, and before he was completely out of danger, he began to play prestige and grab credit.
The other subordinates of the crown prince came out one by one intact.
But the princess's men were all left behind. Even Lichun and several other maids lived and died with the princess.
It has been a few months since he entered Wendula Mountain, and even Lichun was able to come out of the mountain alone, break through the blockade, and return to the imperial capital to report the news.
There are dozens of people under the prince, even if there is an outstanding one, there may not be no chance to escape.
Single-mindedly thinking about going to war to make military achievements and establish his prestige. It is defeated at the first touch, and it can only survive.
Where is there any wise and martial, eloquent and decisive crown prince, it is just an enlarged version of Baoyu and Jia Huan.
For Chang'an, Jia Min's feelings are a little complicated.
If she hadn't been a princess, the two might have become good friends.
In terms of personal friendship, he still likes Chang'an.
Of course, for now, it is only limited to his former subordinates and the relationship between friends.
Regarding the emperor's ban on marriage, Jia Min also vaguely felt that this might be Chang'an's hands and feet inside.
Maybe Chang'an will have a good impression of himself, but Jia Min doesn't think that the two have the possibility of coming together.
I didn't think so before, but in the case of falling out with the emperor now, it will be even more impossible in the future.
However, this did not delay him from resolutely coming to save Chang'an now. Just like he saved Baoyu, there are some things that must be done.
It's his responsibility!
However, Jia Min is still confident, as long as Chang'an is alive now, he is confident that he will rescue Chang'an.
As for Wei Ruolan, he was not too worried.
After checking the equipment, Jia Min took out a piece of beef in sauce and ate it as he walked.
Next, there will be a brutal battle, and he must ensure sufficient physical strength.
After about ten minutes, Jia Min discovered the anomaly.
Four Tatars came into his field of vision.
Apparently, these guys are searching for targets. This made Jia Min's heart a little lighter.
As long as the Tatars are still searching, it proves that they have not been completely wiped out in Chang'an. If Chang'an still has subordinates, then Chang'an is likely to be the one who survives to the end.
Jia Min quickly handed over four target numbers: No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4.
Now No. 3 is closest to him, but he decided to take No. 4 first.
The method is simple, with a bow and arrow.
With little effort, an arrow was fired, and with a scream, Number Four fell into the jungle with a scream.
Four screamed, startling Three, instinctively got up and looked up. At this moment, Jia Min's crossbow arrow shot out and hit No. 3 in the throat. That guy immediately threw his head up and fell.
Jia Min didn't go to check, lying on the ground, he crawled on the ground continuously, and quickly approached No. 1.
He grabbed a stone like a number one and threw it away, and then quickly climbed seven or eight meters away and stood up.
No sooner had One fired an arrow in the direction of the stone when he heard the sound of an arrow whizzing through the air from the side. Before he could dodge, he was hit by an arrow in the ribs.
As soon as he wanted to kneel down to check the injury, he saw that a black shadow was about to pass through, and a white light flashed, and his head flew out.
After killing No. 1, Jia Min hid under a clump of dense vines about three meters next to No. 1.
He took out a dagger, quickly cut off a long vine, felt a stone, and tied it to one end of the long vine.
This is the wild kiwi vine. The vines are still densely hung with fruits, and they are emitting a refreshing fragrance.
This kiwi is called soft jujube by the locals. It is slightly hard when it is not ripe, and when it is ripe, it becomes soft. There is no hair on it, and the skin is very thin, so you can eat it with the skin together, which is very delicious.
Jia Min picked a few and waited for the arrival of No. 2 while eating.
Number Two noticed the anomaly and really touched it this way.
