The west can't go, before Jiahewei, I don't know how many people are waiting to be chased and intercepted, even if they enter Jiahewei, they just re-enter a big cage, and the final result is still death. Going South? It was originally his own foundation, but now I'm afraid it's already the world of Wu Yijun!

Only to the north, where are there deep mountains and dense forests, you can dodge, and if you hide in the old forest, what can Wu Yijun do?

As for the reason why he must come to the rescue of Jia Hewei, go to the × × his × mother! I can't save my life, and I'm still talking about a fart?

"Let's go!"

Amin and the others fled northward, while Nurhachi led people to chase after them.

Such a chase and escape, in a moment, they went out far away, and they were already out of the battlefield.

"It's not going to work, it's too slow!" Amin looked back and saw that the pursuers were getting closer and closer, and he shouted, "The armor is too heavy, take it off!" Thrown! ”

Hearing this order, Rao is Amin was as noble as a celestial man in the eyes of these kidnappers, and they couldn't help but hesitate. It is difficult for outsiders to imagine how precious, rare, and glorious it is to have a set of heavy armor in a country where the smelting technology is extremely underdeveloped!

When each of these carefully selected kidnappers and horses entered this army and wore this layer of steel heavy armor, they firmly remembered such a sentence - people can die, but armor cannot be lost! A, it's worth more than life!

In their hearts, this idea is already ingrained!

"Take it off!" I knew that this was the time to do so, and he took off his armor and threw it away, shouting.

Those kidnappers and horses began to obey orders. Tearfully threw away the armor.

As soon as these armors weighing sixty or seventy pounds were thrown, the weight of the war horse was greatly reduced. The mounts ridden by the kidnappers are selected to be of the finest quality, not only in height. He has a lot of strength, and he has excellent endurance and explosive power. As soon as the burden on the body is reduced, the speed suddenly increases!

The distance between it and the wild Jurchen cavalry behind is getting wider and wider!

Nurha's red eyes saw that he could no longer pursue supplies, and he couldn't help but turn blue with anger.

―――――――― Dividing Line――――――――

Amin escaped after all.

Not far to the north, Jiahewei is a dense forest and deep hills, in which the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the water system is vertical and horizontal. Many water veins are connected to the Heilongjiang River, and you can even float directly into the Heilongjiang River on a raft.

Amin is also desperate enough, risking being chased directly, he directly led people to get off the horse and drill into the old forest.

Not to mention that Nurhachi only has a small number of people, even if it is ten times dozens of times, it is also in vain.

Right behind him, thousands of people came to their aid. Nurhachi led his men to search in the old forest for a whole day, spread more than a hundred miles forward, and took out the spirit of Jinyi Wei to search the world and catch the thief. But in the end, no trace of Amin and others could be found.

Amin's dozens of people are like mud cows entering the sea, and there is no news.

It wasn't until Lian Zining came to the camp outside Jiahewei that the search was over.

"Your Excellency. marked incompetence, let Amin go, and the matter was marked to bear the responsibility. Please punish you. ”

Nurhachi knelt straight in front of Lian Zining and said.

Lian Zining rode on a horse. He looked at Nurhachi fixedly, and there was no expression on his face. Indifferent, indifferent.

Xiong Tingbi, Dong Ce, Dong Hanchen, Shi Dazhu and other generals around were all on the side, they looked at this scene with complicated expressions, some wanted to open their mouths to plead, but when they saw Lian Zining's face, they trembled in their hearts and didn't dare to speak again.

Lian Zining looked at it for a while, didn't say a word, turned around on horseback, turned in the direction of the battlefield, and said lightly: "A few of you, go for a walk with me." ”

"Yes, sir." Several people answered, and they all followed one after another.

Nurhachi was still kneeling on the ground, his body stiff and straight, and several people had to look at him sympathetically.

Ye Nai could see that Lian Zining turned around, and his face had become iron-blue.

Not far in front of him is the battlefield.

Two hours ago, there was a big battle here that was enough to change the situation on the battlefield in northern Liaobei. Except for Amin who led more than 50 people to escape, the other Jurchen remnants of more than 15,000 people were all wrapped in dumplings.

More than 2,000 people surrendered, and all the rest were killed, and the number of dead reached more than 13,000. This is a terrifying number, the vast majority of the Jurchen soldiers, all chanting, shouting, lined up in a neat queue, facing the countless flintlock pistols of the Wu Yi Army, brazenly launched a charge! They knew that the road ahead was death, but they still charged in vain and bravely as if they didn't know. Maybe they are not afraid of death, maybe they are desperate and just want to die, or maybe what they think is that even if they die, they will also pull Wu Yijun on their backs.

Driven by this incredible fighting spirit, they withstood the lead bullets, slaughtered into the forest, and resolutely rushed forward in the face of the spear phalanx of the Wu Yi Army.

They brought a lot of trouble to Wu Yijun.

Wu Yi's army suffered more than 2,000 casualties.

In Lian Zining's imagination, this battle could have been undamaged, with hundreds of casualties at most.

This kind of will to fight made Xiong Tingbi and others who were watching the battle not far away frightened. And after Lian Zining heard it, he was also silent.

This reminded him of the heroes who charged against the enemy's bullets with their flesh and blood in the War of Resistance, and the Cossacks under Budyonny, wielding their swords, bravely and vainly rushing towards the German tank clusters. The fiery red sunset reflected their sad silhouettes.

The war was over, and the soldiers had withdrawn to the camp outside Jiahewei, where there were comfortable tents, hot water, food, and plenty of rest. Hidden in this mountain forest for a long time, they are already tired.

The battlefield was littered with charred black craters, and even this patch of muddy water had been steamed dry. The corpses of Wu Yi's soldiers were all collected, and on the ground were the corpses of Jurchens—all stripped into bare pigs. Most of these Jurchens are armored cavalrymen, and the iron-leaf armor on their bodies is a good thing, and Wu Yijun will not let it go. Others such as mace. Heavy weapons such as Iron Guduo will not be wasted. This thing melts and you can still practice a lot of good iron!

This battle, that's all there is to it. It's also quite rewarding.

It is conceivable that in the future, there will definitely be many more ironclad troops in the Wu Yi army.

As for the corpses, this area is high and densely forested, and there are many wild beasts, and it will not be long before they will be gnawed to the bones.

Lian Zining rode among them, such a big victory, but his face was always gloomy.

He was very important to Nurhachi, this young man. Hard work, hard work, and a good foundation, it will be a good material in the future.

This time, I also had the intention to give him a great credit, and he had done so many arrangements before, so many plans, so much painstaking consideration, and hundreds of thousands of troops were mobilized for several months. For what? Isn't it just to kill Amin!

All of the previous ones were all paving the way for the killing of Amin! Weakened step by step, please enter the urn and besiege the city to help. Layers of interlocking plans until Amin is forced into this desperate situation - a desperate situation from which it is impossible to escape!

If it is said that Amin can be killed in this battle, in fact, Nurhachi's credit accounts for 10% of it. More credit is due to the erosion of the previous layers - this is easy to understand. It seems that Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, died at the hands of the former general Lu Matong, but you can say that Xiang Yu was defeated by Lu Matong. Defeated Xiang Yu? The great merit is due to Liu Bang, Lu Xuan, Fan Xu, Zhang Liang, Han Xin, Xiao He, and he Lu Matong. At best, he's a pawn. But the groundbreaking merit of killing Xiang Yu with his own hands was enough to make Lu Matong a marquis and famous for eternity.

If Nurhachi can kill Amin alive with his own hands, then after this war, Lian Zining will rank him first in terms of meritorious deeds, and everyone is also convinced.

But such a great opportunity was let go by Nurhachi himself.

When Lian Zining heard the news, he couldn't believe his ears, and the shock was followed by uncontrollable anger.

Lian Zining knew very well what was terrible about Amin - he had always been quite jealous of the remnants of the Jurchens. He was not afraid of the 30,000 remnants, but of their leader, Amin. Amin is now the spiritual totem of the entire Haixi Jurchen, as long as he is there, the Jurchen are the most elite warriors who are not afraid of death. Without him, it's just a plate of loose sand.

Although this time it seems that he has the upper hand, playing Amin in applause, wanting him to go east, he will not go west, he will take what he wants, and he has fought several times in a row, and Amin has been defeated by the army, and even this last bit of combat power, the elite blood of the Jurchen has been thrown out of this line. But Lian Zining knew in his heart how exhausted and painstaking he was in order to fight these two battles.

People grow, and the terrible thing about Amin is that he has infinite potential and is always improving.

And with these two lessons, it is conceivable that he will never be easily fooled again in the future, and he will never have such a great opportunity in the future.

If you don't die, you will have endless troubles.

Lian Zining could even imagine that Amin, who had suffered a blood loss, would never fight with him again, but would take his troops out of the city and fight guerrilla warfare with himself in the dense forests and mountains. It's a headache to think about. As for the fact that Amin's men were almost dead and wounded, and how much control they still had over those Han slave soldiers, even Zining had never doubted this. If he didn't have that ability, Amin wouldn't be Amin.

With such an ending, how can Lian Zining not be angry?

This also made him very disappointed in Nurhachi.

Fortunately, he still has a trick left, but I don't know if it works.

Lian Zining rode forward, Xiong Tingbi and the others followed, and after a while, Lian Zining suddenly asked: "Xiong Tingbi, you said such a big victory, how many more times can we have it?" ”

Xiong Tingbi was stunned, and then said: "The adult's strategy is unparalleled, as long as the adult is here, such a big victory for our Wu Yijun is indispensable." ”

These words are half compliment, half admiration.

"You're wrong." Lian Zining smiled bitterly: "Such a big victory, if you want to have it in the future, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky!" ”

He glanced back at everyone, and his voice suddenly rose: "The more famous our Wu Yijun is, the more others know about us, and others are not stupid, so they will naturally take their strengths and sacrifice their weaknesses, and we still want to act like this." It's hard! It's like Amin, this time he went back alive. In the future, I want him to do such evil, that's a dream! ”

said. His face was full of anger again.

Seeing him like this, Xiong Tingbi knew that the anger in his heart had not subsided, and he didn't dare to say it again.

Lian Zining suddenly approached the horse and said in a low voice: "Can you be obedient?" ”

This sentence is a brainless question, if it is an ordinary person, it must be blinded. What kind of splendid character is Xiong Tingbi? At that moment, he understood and said, "Very deferential." ”

Lian Zining nodded, and after a while, he also felt uneasy.

Let the horses go back. Nurhachi was still kneeling in the icy muddy water.

"You will recuperate for two days, and as for the affairs of the army, Abatai and Shulhachi will temporarily take over, and your headquarters will rest for five days."

Lian Zining coldly dropped a sentence and walked away.

This punishment is not light or heavy, but it can be light or heavy, and it is still the same sentence. I saw the performance.

Nurhachi breathed a sigh of relief, slammed his head on the ground, and said loudly: "Thank you, sir!" ”

Outside of Jiahewei, it has become very lively.

Originally, the military camp built by Chen Dakang and Nurhachi in the north of the city had been expanded by five or six times. It formed the shape of a crescent moon, and almost encapsulated the entire northern half of Jiahewei.

The wooden fence outside the camp was erected high, and the fighting was fierce. It was very quiet inside, and the soldiers must have rested.

When Lian Zining came over. A dozen or so loud-voiced soldiers were standing not far from the Jiahe Guard, holding a simple megaphone rolled into iron sheets. What is shouted in the mouth.

This is the method that Lian Zining came up with, and these soldiers shouted that Amin naturally led the army to come, but the whole army was wiped out and Amin was also killed.

Their own god of war was defeated, and the defenders in the city naturally did not believe it, but they could not believe it and there was no way - the evidence was ironclad. Not far from the city walls, there were mountains of armor, all ripped from the dead Jurchen soldiers. And next to the armor mountain, there are a dozen or so tree stumps, on which are tied a lot of Jurchen captives, their mouths are strangled by strips of cloth, but they can't say a word.

This is to prevent them from telling the truth about Amin's escape.

This series of means will not be unbelievable to the people in the city.

At this time, the head of the Jiahe Acropolis was quiet, and the flag was occasionally rolled up twice with weak strength, and there were not many defenders in the city.

At this time, Jiahewei was guarding the General's Mansion, and he was already in a state of fear and panic.

The door to the hall was slammed shut, and the sounds of women crying for mercy could be heard inside, mixed with the furious yells and insults of men. Outside, the few guards who were supposed to be standing disappeared and hid far away in the gatehouse of the second gate.

Several guards sat on the floor of the gatehouse, looking at each other one by one, all of them were a little listless, and if you look closely, you will find that their expressions are very sluggish, and their eyes are full of confusion.

The news that came this morning spread almost instantaneously throughout Jiahewei.

Lord Amin led an army to help, but as a result, the ambush of the Wuyi Army was planted, and the whole army was wiped out, not to mention, even Lord Amin was killed. Naturally, they didn't believe it, but the mountains of blood-stained armor not far from the city wall were not lying, they were insiders, so they could naturally see at a glance that this was the kind of armor they were wearing.

And if it's not true, what about the robes tied to the wooden stakes?

In everyone's hearts, they actually already believe it, so they are even more panicked. Lord Amin is dead, and the reinforcements are all gone, so isn't the Haixi Jurchen finished? Relying on the lonely city of Jiahewei, how can you beat these wolf-like Wu Yi army?

But the officials above seemed to acquiesce and did not come out to refute the rumors.

In particular, the general of the town guard, Lakshen, after learning the news, was like crazy, and yelled on the city wall for a while, and on the spot he waved his knife to chop a few honest Han slaves into meat sauce, and then returned to the mansion, closed the gate, and ravaged the poor women.

This result made his soldiers dumbfounded, and at the same time extremely disappointed - what is this thing in your mother? When you are most needed to be in charge and take the lead, but you are playing with women behind closed doors?

Your grandma's!

The entire Jurchen up and down, now the people are panicking, if it weren't for the strict top-down officer system that is still operating and controlling by inertia. I'm afraid that the army will already be in chaos at this time.

Several guards looked at each other a few times, but they were all silent. Panicked.

What else could it be? We are little people, and we can only wait for who will take the lead! It's just that it doesn't matter if it's hit or dropped. Can you give us an accurate word as soon as possible? On such a day, a day is better than a knife mountain oil pot!

It's still that small courtyard in the middle of nowhere.

In the daytime, there was no scorching and bright fire shining at night, but it was much softer and quieter, and the guards were still upright as usual, patrolling and watching, seemingly meticulously, just like the past hundreds of days.

But Fortitude is still keenly aware of the difference between today and the past.

He leaned under the vine trellis. Squinting his eyes seemed to be closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, but in fact, he was carefully observing the every move of those guards.

If you look closely, you can see a lot of problems.

These guards were obviously a little absent-minded today, as if they were out of focus, and their patrols were more like looking for something to do for themselves, wandering around aimlessly—Resolute even noticed that one of the guards had been going back and forth eight times, and in the past. He made a maximum of four trips. The sharpness in their eyes had disappeared without a trace, replaced by confusion and panic, and a strange atmosphere enveloped the place.

Every day during the day in the past few days, Wu Yi's army will attack the city in a big way. The cannons rumbled, the ground collapsed, and the people were panicked. Although the effect is not great. But the momentum is not small.

And today, the sound of the siege. But it stopped.

Linking these two points, Gang Yi suddenly guessed that something was wrong. Something big is wrong.

"Could it be that Amin's little cub led the troops back to help, but was slaughtered by Wu Yijun?" Gangyi speculated maliciously in his heart, but he didn't expect that his casual guess was already close to the truth.

It's just that this idea was quickly rejected by him: "Amin has 30,000 soldiers under his command, all of whom are elites who can fight, half of them are armored people, and Wu Yi's army can defend the city. Impossible, impossible. ”

Such an idea, you can't blame him, to put it bluntly, it's still the old idea, he is closed to news, and his understanding of Wu Yijun is still stuck nearly a year ago, so he naturally doesn't know that this year, Wu Yijun has undergone earth-shaking changes.

I was thinking to myself, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, followed by a low voice of inquiry and scolding, it seemed that the comer and the guard had a conversation, and the resolute heart moved, and Huo stood up.

A moment later, with a crisp clang, the iron plate on the small one-foot-square hole in the wall was pushed open, revealing a face outside.

Gangyi saw the man's face clearly, and at that moment his heart was surging with ecstasy, and his whole body trembled with excitement, and shouted: "Hu Yake, is it you?" ”

The man outside the wall was none other than Huyak.

Jiahewei is the deputy general of the town guard.

His eyes were dead on the resolute body, and his face was full of disbelief, the white-haired old man in front of him was still the former general who was rich and martial?

Suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes, and he cried: "General, I should die, I am too late to make you suffer." ”

Fortitude was also agitated in his heart, and suddenly remembered something, his face changed, and he stepped forward and said sharply: "Hu Yake, how dare you come here?" How could they let you in? ”

This is the hero, and emotions can also overwhelm their minds, but it is extremely rare. Fortitude is here, and I have imagined the scene when I got out of trouble countless times, but there is no such scene? After a moment of excitement, there was immediately suspicion and jealousy.

He knew that these people were loyal to Amin, and they could be said to be dead soldiers, even if Hu Yake was the deputy general of Jiahewei, how could they let Hu Yake in?

"Could it be that he came to take my life?" Resoluteness suddenly sounded a terrifying possibility.

Hu Yake knew that he had misunderstood when he saw the change in his resolute face, and he hurriedly said: "General, I was cultivated by you with your own hands, although I had to get rid of the traitor because Amin was powerful a while ago, but it was just to save my life!" Now Amin is dead! Amin's soldiers were also wiped out. As soon as I got the chance, I rushed to it! ”

"What? Amin is dead? Fortitude couldn't believe his ears at all.

"It's complicated, I'll talk to you later." Hu Yake said: "Now the dragons in Jiahe Weizhong have no leader, and the slut of Lakshen only knows how to drink and play with women, and he specially invites the general to preside over the overall situation!" (To be continued.) )
