readx; Dawn is approaching, and the northeast land is still shrouded in a cold fog, and even if you climb high and look at it from afar, you can't see too far through the thick fog. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Although there was a loud sound of killing in the direction of Jinzhou, Zhu Youzhen and the others couldn't see anything, and they couldn't even tell whether the shouting of killing was the Ming army or the Later Jin army.

However, judging from common sense, the Ming army was trapped in a lonely city, and it was good to be able to hold the city, let alone reinforce the Daling River. On the contrary, it is possible that the Houjin army heard the shouts of killing on the side of the Daling River and sent a part of the army to flank the Ming army. If this is the case, tens of thousands of Ming troops will be in danger of being attacked on their backs!

The military situation was urgent, and Zhu Youzhen immediately made arrangements, on the one hand, he sent Guanning Tiecai to prevent the enemy from catching up in the direction of the Daling River, and on the other hand, he sent Li Laiheng's 3,000 light cavalry to block the mountain road in the direction of Jinzhou. The rest of the troops continued to climb the mountains and mountains, turning northwest along the course of Yiwulu Mountain. As long as you walk a few dozen miles of mountain roads, you can turn from the north of Jinzhou to Songling Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles. The Songling Mountains are stacked with mountains, and it is not a problem to hide tens of thousands of people, so it will be relatively safe at that time.

Li Laiheng immediately led his subordinates to seal the road into the mountain, staring at the dense fog in front of him, quietly listening to the sound of killing approaching. After a meal, I saw the smoke and dust in front of him, and the figure swaying in the fog, Li Laiheng immediately shouted: "Get on the horse!" ”

The three thousand light cavalry immediately prepared for battle, and just as they were about to charge, a sharp-eyed cavalryman suddenly shouted: "Commander, you see, it seems to be your own people!" ”

Li Laiheng looked at it, but no, what suddenly appeared from the dense fog was about 2,000 Ming troops! These Ming soldiers were mixed in horseback, all with crooked helmets and oblique armor, panting, and many of them were still wounded, looking miserable. And not far behind them, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves resounded across the land, presumably the Houjin army was chasing after them!

Li Laiheng hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a loud voice: "Is it the Jinzhou garrison coming from the other side?" ”

"Exactly!" A veteran general on the opposite side also saw Li Laiheng's troops, and was overjoyed, "I am Zhu Mei, the defender of Jinzhou and the deputy commander-in-chief, and the defenders of the Daling River on the other side?" Be sure to defend the mountain pass, the Tartars will catch up! ”

Although Li Laiheng has never seen Zhu Mei, he has heard Zhu Youzhen mention it. As soon as he saw this person's appearance, coupled with the embarrassment of the other party, he knew that it was the defenders of Jinzhou, and immediately shouted: "The old general, please retreat into the valley quickly, and the chasing soldiers behind will be handed over to the last general!" ”

Zhu Mei gasped violently and ran to Li Laiheng, who found that he had been wounded at least three or four times, and that there was an arrow nailed to his back, and the red blood stained all the robes outside the armor red. And the soldiers under his command are not much better, almost all of them are injured, and they are about to be unable to support it.

Li Laiheng hurriedly ordered 3,000 light cavalry to quickly advance the front line and let the remnants of the army go. In the blink of an eye, the pursuers had already been killed, and thousands of Jurchen cavalry roared furiously while constantly firing their bows and arrows. It seems that this Ming army was driven all the way here, and I don't know how much it sacrificed on the way!

"I'm a thief fucking a dog tartar!" Li Laiheng was furious and said, "Brothers, give them some iron melons to taste!" ”

At the sound of the order, the three thousand light horsemen repeated their old tricks, lit grenades and threw them out. And the Houjin army on the opposite side didn't suffer from this thing, and thought that the Ming army was just throwing stones and other things, so they didn't take it seriously at all, and still rushed forward with their lives.

Now they are out of luck. The defenders who pursued Jinzhou just now were killed, and the formation of the Houjin army was very dense, and they didn't expect that there would be a Ming army that dared to block it. Hundreds of grenades were thrown at this time, which was much more lethal than the white armor soldiers. The white-armored soldiers still had triple armor, which could somewhat offset some of the energy of the explosion, but these cavalry took it all, and in an instant, hundreds of cavalry fell from their horses in the rumbling explosion. This is no longer a plain, the terrain is undulating, the front army fell from the horse, and the road of the rear army was blocked at once, and the formation of the rear Jin army was in chaos.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Laiheng led his troops to fight and retreat, throwing more than a dozen grenades every once in a while. At this time, the Houjin army on the opposite side already knew that these black guys were amazingly powerful, and they didn't dare to chase too close.

In this way, more than 2,000 Jinzhou defenders and Li Laiheng's 3,000 light cavalry successfully retreated into the mountain pass of Yiwulu Mountain. After the passage of the army, the Ming army immediately blocked the mountain road with rocks and felled trees. The Houjin army was all cavalry, coming and going like the wind on the plains, but in this case, it was difficult to move an inch, and was left far behind by the Ming army.

Not long after, Zhu Youzhen, who got the news, rushed Yuan Chonghuan and the generals to respond. Zhu Mei had always thought that it was Zu Dashou who came to save herself, but now when she saw that it was Zhu Youzhen, she was immediately moved and cried!

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly comforted him and ordered all the troops to immediately dismount and climb the mountain. Because they are not out of danger now, there are hundreds of thousands of Houjin troops on both sides of Yiwu Lu Mountain, and once they are caught up, their previous efforts will be wasted.

Although the defenders of Jinzhou were all wounded, they were still strong in their fighting spirit and supported each other to encourage them to move forward under the strong encouragement of survival ** and the emperor's personal expedition. At this time, the dawn has arrived, and as far as the eye can see, tens of thousands of Ming troops are difficult and persistent to climb over the snow-covered Yiwulu Mountain, the scene is both tragic and moving, and it is really similar to the Red Army crossing the snowy mountain.

Only then did Zhu Youzhen have time to ask about what Zhu Mei had passed before. Zhu Mei said gloomily: "Your Majesty, the last sentence is a capital crime, Jinzhou City has been lost!" ”

In fact, this is also a self-evident thing, the defenders have run out, and Jinzhou has become an empty city, of course, it will fall into the hands of the enemy. Zhu Youzhen didn't care about this at all, he was going to give up Jinzhou, what he really cared about was people.

After listening to Zhu Mei's introduction, Zhu Youzhen and others couldn't help but sigh. It turned out that Mang Gurtai besieged Jinzhou, and he didn't think about persuading the defenders to surrender like Huang Taiji, and he attacked the city like a storm from the beginning. In the past ten days, every day he has been crazy and forced to attack the city with his life under the banner of the Han army, if it were not for the strong artillery of Jinzhou City, with Zhu Mei's 8,000 border troops, I am afraid that it would have been lost long ago.

Rao was so, and the defenders also suffered heavy casualties, and by last night there were less than 4,000 men left. When he was desperate, the direction of the Daling River suddenly burst into flames, and the Houjin army began to move on a large scale inexplicably, seeing that it meant to rush to the Daling River.

Zhu Mei thought that Jinzhou couldn't hold it anyway, so instead of sitting and waiting to be killed, it was better to rush to the Daling River to join forces with Zu Dashou. Therefore, seeing the opportunity, the whole army went out of the city. The Houjin army didn't expect the Jinzhou defenders to suddenly kill, and they were caught off guard and let Zhu Mei escape, but the Ming army lost more than half of this battle, and now there are only 2,000 people left.

"General Zhu, your decision is very correct. Not only is it not guilty, but it is a great achievement. Zhu Youzhen's eyes flushed after hearing this, and said, "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood." As long as we keep the useful body, we will definitely kill it back in the future! ”
