Lishui to Nanjing must pass through the Ningzhen Mountains, among which the Moling Pass under the Fang Mountain and the Dasheng Pass on the Yangtze River are all important checkpoints to Nanjing, the geographical location is very important, so the Qing army has guards in both passes. The www.biquge.info garrison of Moling Pass is the Jiangning Green Battalion, with more than 700 guards. The guard general Liang Shilun was not from Jiangning, but from Chang'an County, Xi'an, and Liang Huafeng, the general of Su Song, was his uncle and cousin.

Liang Huafeng likes this cousin very much, and has always been by his side, first as a personal soldier by his side, and later hung up a standard battalion commander. When Liang Huafeng led his troops to rescue Jiangning from Suzhou, Liang Shilun also followed, and as a result, Liang Huafeng broke the Zheng army, and Liang Shilun also made a lot of contributions. Although it is only a local garrison, it is not as important as being in the standard camp, but how can it be a military attache of the fifth grade, Liang Shilun is young, and there is a cousin above him, and the future will be optimistic.

After the bandits retreated, first the Jiangnan Governor Guan Allegiance led 8,000 troops to Susong to recover the lost territory, and then rushed to Jiangning Prince An Yue Le because he was not worried about Su Song's side, worried that Ma Fengzhi and Guan Allegiance would not be able to look at the bandits, so he asked Liang Huafeng to also bring his troops to Susong, so Su Song gathered the three elites of the Qing army in Jiangnan.

Before Liang Huafeng left Jiangning, he made a special trip to Moling Pass, and told his cousin that although the main force of the pirates had retreated, there was still some chaos in Jiangning's left and left, and there were many remnants of the Diao people and bandits who had been thieves, and some places were still controlled by the rebels, so Moling Pass must be optimistic here, and must not be careless. In this regard, Liang Shilun couldn't help nodding his head and repeatedly assured his cousin, but with him, Moling Pass would be foolproof.

Before leaving, Liang Huafeng's cousin said something about the incident, saying that in recent days, there have been activities of thieves in various prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River who are full of Mongolian soldiers, and these thieves have falsely passed on the orders of the governor of Liangjiang, not only killing local loyal officers and soldiers, but also destroying the information channels and military posts, and no one can distinguish between the true and the false, causing the local people to panic and the officers and men to be suspicious of each other.

Liang Huafeng warned his cousin that Moling Pass is related to the safety of Jiangning, so no matter who comes, even if it is really full of Mongolian soldiers, they must carefully print the customs defense before they can let them in, otherwise, they can't open the door even if they shout through the sky, and he will carry the consequences.

After his cousin left, Liang Shilun really did his duty for a few days, urging the soldiers to guard strictly every day, and the checkpoints were checked very strictly, for fear that the people would really mess up. I was also very concerned about the fake Manchurian soldiers told by my cousin, and specially arranged for my own soldiers to be on duty at the checkpoint, and if there were really Manchurian soldiers, they would come to report immediately, otherwise no one would be able to open the city.

After a few days, it was peaceful, not only did there be no fake Manchurian soldiers to cheat the customs, but even a few defeated soldiers of Diao Min were not found. In addition, when he heard that the counties near Jiangning had been recovered one after another, Liang Shilun couldn't help but be a little slack, thinking that his cousin was too careful, and some plants and trees were all soldiers. Without the support of the army of bandits, can those defeated soldiers and people still turn the sky in the south of the Yangtze River upside down? What's more, Moling Pass is not on the riverside, facing the west of Zhejiang, relatively speaking, it is much safer than Dasheng Pass, after all, the bandits are along the river, and they do not go too far, and there is chaos along the river, and there is chaos in this area of Moling Pass.

In the evening of this day, seeing that the sun was about to set, Liang Shilun wanted to get some wine and food with his own soldiers, and was ready to call a few of his cronies to have a good drink, and then gamble a few hands. The food and drinks here have just been prepared, but when the door is closed, a report comes to report that there are Mongolian soldiers arriving.

Mongol soldiers?

Liang Shilun was stunned for a moment, and the first thing that came to mind was the fake Manchurian soldiers told by his cousin, so he hurriedly led people to the gate. originally thought that if the thief was pretending, he would give the other party a blow to let them know that he was powerful, and at the same time earn some first-class merit. I don't want to, when I went to Guancheng, I saw that Guanxia was not a thief pretending to be a Manchurian soldier, but really a Mongolian soldier!

There were about three or four hundred Mongolian soldiers under the pass, all of them were cavalry, with white banners, and they were all Mongolian war horses, and they all looked like the second Mongolian master.

The Mongol soldiers seemed to understand the rules very well, and did not shout and scold the defenders for not opening the door for them immediately, but sent a Mongol officer who spoke Chinese to put the guards and military orders in a basket hanging from the city.

After the Mongolian officer put the things in, he shouted to the city: "Recently, there have been many thieves pretending to be our Manchurian soldiers, and the customs are carefully inspected, and some wine, food, and horse materials are prepared. ”

Hearing this, and then looking at the following group of Mongolian two masters, Liang Shilun has no doubts, because if the thieves are fake, where can they speak Mongolian so fluently, how can they be guarded, and more importantly, where did they come from Mongolian horses? You must know that even under his cousin, there are only more than 30 Mongolian war horses!

The soldiers showed Liang Shilun the customs defense and military orders handed over by the Mongolian soldiers, which were indeed the customs defense and military orders issued by the governor of Liangjiang. I didn't want the Mongolian soldiers to enter the customs, but they immediately drew their swords and slashed and killed, shouting something in Mongolian while chopping.

Liang Shilun was stunned, and the battalion soldiers under him were also stunned, and they couldn't figure out what was going on, why did the Mongolian soldiers kill them?

There are those who cry out for injustice, and there are those who run around, but none of them dare to resist, even Liang Shilun is also taken by the majesty of the Manchurian soldiers, and he is afraid to hold his head and run away, and he does not dare to order a counterattack. By the time Liang Shilun finally came to his senses, the Moling Pass had already fallen into the hands of the Mongolian soldiers, and his people and a group of remnants were surrounded by the Mongolian soldiers. Of the more than 700 defenders, except for the 100 who were killed on the spot, none of the remaining ones escaped.

After controlling the closing of the gate, Namutu immediately sent someone to light several bonfires on the closing door to report to the main force in the rear. Seeing the fire at the city gate, the soldiers of the Taiping Army hidden on both sides of the road immediately cheered, and marched towards Guanzhong in groups.

A few miles away, after listening to the report of the blind man Li, Zhou Shixiang smiled and said to Zhang Huang beside him: "Lord Shangshu, the Moling is closed." ”

"Down?"

Zhang Huangyan, who looked haggard because of the fast horse galloping for days, was stunned for a moment, and then said with emotion: "The Manchurian and Mongolian special operation team of the Duke of Yue is really a sharp weapon, and it is invincible." ”

Luo Lun, who came with Zhang Huangyan, was also impressed, but he asked curiously: "Isn't the Duke of Yue worried that the Qing army will see the flaws?" ”

"Flaws?"

Zhou Shixiang shook his head and said to Luo Lun: "Where is the flaw? My subordinates are all real Tartars, and there are the customs and military orders of the Yamen of the Governor of Liangjiang, even if Lang Tingzuo comes in person, he has to be confused for a while before he understands what is going on.
