Chapter Seventy-Eight: Li Guangli's Story

Seeing the boss, Bi Keta and the others knelt on the ground "poof": "Returning to Lord Niulu, we were defeated by the Ming army, and only these dozens of people came back, and the rest were all killed." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Huh? Where is the Ming army? How many people are there? Alhatu asked, and he thought to himself: "This squad sent out has more than 100 people, which is enough to deal with seven or eight hundred Ming troops, but now only fifty people have returned, and if you want to cause such losses, unless the Ming army has more than 1,000 people." ”

Hearing Alhatu ask about the number of the Ming army, Bikota really couldn't answer, because he only faintly saw more than a dozen people, and in order to reduce the guilt, his eyes rolled and he said: "There are seven or eight hundred people, and there may be a large army behind." ”

"Oh? So many? Alhatu asked, surprised.

Nodding, Bikota said: "Seven or eight hundred have been seen, and the subordinates of the large army behind are guessing." ”

Staring at him with a calm face, Alhatu said, "Okay, I'll take you over to see Lord Jiala'e Zhen Duolong Ao, and you can report to Lord Duolong Ao yourself." ”

"Wow!" Beacon respectfully agreed.

Forty-year-old Jialazhangjing Duolong Ao was dressed in fine blue and red armor, riding in the middle of the team, Duolongao, born in the blue flag, because of his military exploits, step by step from Niu Lu Ezhen to the five Niu Lu in charge of Jia Lazhang Jing, he had already seen it when Bi Keta and others came, but he was a dignified Jia Lazhang Jing, and he would not go to meet a few ordinary soldiers.

Niu Lu Zhangjing Alhatu and Bi Keta and others rode over, saw him, hurriedly dismounted, and after half kneeling and saluting, Alhatu said: "Lord Yu Jiala, the subordinate forward Bi Keta has a military situation to report. ”

Glancing at him, and then at the Beacon Tower, Duolong Ao ordered the team to stop, and then said, "If you have any military information to report to the Beacon Tower, just say it." ”

"My lord, I took more than 100 brothers to Zhuozhou to threshk grass on the order of Lord Niu Luzhang Jing Alhatu, and I didn't want to encounter a Ming army in the southwest direction of more than ten miles away from Zhuozhou City......

After listening to Bikota's narration, Duolong Ao was furious, waved his hand and whipped him in the face, and scolded: "A group of fools, how could they be killed by the incompetent Ming army with firecrackers, and they can't run away if they can't beat it. ”

More than a dozen soldiers rushed over, pushed Bikota and the others to the ground, and beat them violently......

After the execution, Duolong Ao looked at Bikota with a gloomy face, and then said: "Biketa, you lead the way, let's go to the battlefield you said, I want to see how these hateful Ming dogs beat my Manchurian warriors to death with firearms." ”

"Tsk. The younger one will take Master Kala. Bi Keta said, limped on his horse, and rode towards the southwest of Zhuozhou City with more than 1,000 Qing troops.

Zhuozhou Prefecture Yali, pacing back and forth for a while, after careful calculation, Fan Jin finally thought of a way, he said to the garrison Li Xian: "General Li, you send someone to bring a batch of grain, grass and tents out of the city, try your best to stabilize this militia group, just say that the city is renovating their residences for them, let them live outside the city for a few days, and when the house is ready, invite them in." ”

Hearing Fan Jin's words, Li Xian asked, "My lord, what do you mean by this?" Neither let them go nor let them in? ”

"Don't ask, you'll find out later." Fan Jin said incomprehensibly.

glanced at him unhappily, guarding Li Xian and Qianhu Tang Zhenbei, so he had to walk out of the state office sullenly. After walking out of the state government for a distance, Li Xian said: "Tang Qianhu, what does this Fan Jin mean?" ”

"This, I can't guess ......" Qianhu Tang Zhenbei shook his head and said, indeed, he couldn't understand why Fan Jin did this.

Li Xian said stupidly: "Forget it, Lao Tzu doesn't guess anymore, he is Zhizhou, and he tells us to do what we do." Anyway, Zhuozhou is guarded, everyone has benefits, but if they can't keep it, the Tartars have entered the city, and everyone will be finished together. ”

Returned to the garrison mansion, called Chen Shimei to give instructions, and then sent him to the state treasury to receive 200 tents and 50 carts of grain and grass, the convoy went out of the city, and came to the barracks of the Volunteer Brigade. Did you come to pick us up in town? ”

With a sneer, Chen Shimei said: "Captain Zhao, Fan Zhizhou and Li Shoubei are repairing houses in the city to prepare to welcome your troops into the city, they sent me to send a batch of tents and grain and grass to your ministry first, please accept them first, and after the house is repaired in a few days, then welcome your troops into the city." ”

"So, thank you very much." Zhao Guohua said with a smile, and then shouted loudly outside the big tent: "Come on, accept these things." ”

After accepting these things, Zhao Guohua said: "Chen Baihu, at present, the Tatars are crisscrossing Gyeonggi, and our army is temporarily living outside the city, which is too risky, for safety, we need some wood and tools to build the camp fence, and please go back and tell Fan Zhizhou and Li Shoubei about my request, and raise a batch of timber for us as soon as possible." ”

"Okay! Good! This is as it should be, and I will definitely tell you that I will try to do it as soon as possible. Chen Shimei enthusiastically agreed.

After bidding farewell to Zhao Guohua, Chen Shimei returned to the city, told Fan Jin and Li Xian about Zhao Guohua's request, and after thinking about it, Fan Jin said: "Promise them to buy a batch of timber in the city and give it to them, and the cost will be paid by the state." ”

"Good. I'll do it. Li Xian went out happily.

Jialazhang Jingduolong Ao led more than 1,000 Qing troops to the southwest of Zhuozhou City to a place more than ten miles southwest of Zhuozhou City, and after some searching, found 55 headless corpses buried in the soil.

Looking at these headless corpses, Duolong Ao's face was pale, when did the warriors of Manchuria become the prey of the cowardly Ming army, he gritted his teeth and said: "Despicable Ming dogs, actually humiliating my Manchurian warriors so much, I will never let them go, quickly, quickly find out the whereabouts of these Ming dogs for me, Lao Tzu will lead the troops to destroy them, cut off their heads one by one, and pay tribute to my Manchurian warriors." ”

After listening to the order, his subordinates scattered around to find the whereabouts of this Ming army.

The Mongols were good at finding animal footprints, and soon, the whereabouts of Niu Huan and others were found by several Mongolian knights.

"Lord Jiala, these people are heading to Zhuozhou City." The Mongolian knight Uzhtana came to report. Uzhtanashun is a hunter who is good at identifying and tracking the tracks of animals.

"You can't let them escape, chase them and destroy them." Duolong Ao said loudly, so more than a thousand Manchu and Han troops chased after Zhuozhou with murderous spirits.

With money, it is easy to do things, and soon, a truckload of wood, hundreds of craftsmen and hundreds of farmers followed the car out of Zhuozhou.

Seeing these timbers and craftsmen and farmers, Zhao Guohua was overjoyed, and commanded everyone to start building camp fences, digging ditches and sawing wood, sawing wood, and doing it in full swing.

Looking at the craftsmen and farmers who were working, Zhao Guohua said: "Niu Huan, you go and invite Li Guangli, I have something to ask him." ”

After a while, Li Guangli came to Zhao Guohua's tent.

Poured a bowl of water and handed it to him, maybe he was thirsty, Li Guangli took the water and drank it all in a few sips, and after he drank the water, Zhao Guohua smiled and asked: "Li Guangli, do you know what I am looking for you for?" ”

"This, the villain doesn't know." Li Guangli lowered his head and said

Glancing at him, Zhao Guohua said: "You are from Liaoyang, Liaodong, then you must have seen the atrocities of the Tartars?" ”

"Yes. I have also seen the Tartars slaughter my Ming people, even the old and weak women and children, it is really inferior to animals. I want to kill all these beasts. Li Guangli gritted his teeth and said hatefully, with a blazing light shining in his eyes.

Zhao Guohua asked again: "Then have you ever killed a Tartar?" ”

"I have killed, I think back then, I followed General Zhao to fight with the Tartars in Liaodong, if it wasn't for General Zhao, he would have died in battle" Speaking ......of this, Li Guangli stopped talking, and the blazing light in his eyes dimmed again.

After being silent for a while, Zhao Guohua said: "Everyone has their own story, I won't force you to tell your past, but, we are going to fight with the Tartars, as the saying goes: know yourself and know that the other is invincible, since you have fought with the Tartars, you know the Tartars better than us, I need to know the situation of the Tartars, I hope you can help me." ”

"Are you really going to fight the Tartars?" Li Guangli raised his head and asked.

Zhao Guohua said solemnly: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have come looking for you, besides, didn't you also see the more than fifty Tartar corpses in front, don't you still believe what I said?" ”

After being silent for a while, Li Guangli said: "Since the general said so, there is nothing to hide below." ”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then said: "Under is a hundred households under the command of General Zhao Shujiao of the Liaodong Army, in November of the second year of Chongzhen, General Zhao led the education in Zunhua (now HB was killed, and the rest of the team broke through without a leader. After some of my brothers and I were dispersed, we hid outside for a while. I wanted to go back to Liaodong to find the old department, but I heard that the supervisor Yuan Chonghuan was killed by the imperial court, so I was disheartened, so I took my family to Gu'an, and I didn't want to barely settle down for a few years, and the Tartars came again, so we had to flee to Zhuozhou. After talking about his experience, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Zhao Shujiao (1569-1629), the word Xilong, the name Mingshan, SX people, born in Jingyuwei, a general of the Ming Dynasty, successively served as the general soldier, the governor of Zuodu, the general of Pingliao, and the general of Yuan Chonghuan.

On the fourth day of November in the second year of Chongzhen (1629), in Zunhua (now HB, the army of Houjin Bel Azig fought fiercely, surrounded by the four banners of the left wing and the Mongol soldiers, and led the middle arrow of the sect to fall from the horse, and was martyred in the battle.
