Chapter 34: Ambush (1st Update)

There is also a shift in the evening, even if it is a small outbreak.

Wang Bin did not encounter any bandits along the way after leaving Jinzhou City with the guards, which is very normal, after all, he has been trying to exterminate some bandits around Jinzhou since he arrived in Jinzhou.

As a result, there are no bandits around Jinzhou City who dare to appear, so that the favorability of the people of Jinzhou, who have been deeply affected by bandits, has invisibly increased by a level.

A group of people rode on the road, and the people who were originally on the road avoided far away after seeing a group of Qiu Ba riding on horses, so that Wang Bin didn't even have the opportunity to communicate with these people, so he had no choice but to hurry away with peace of mind.

After a day of wandering, Wang Bin and others finally arrived at Zhong'anbao.

Zhong'an Fort is located in the Beizhen area, which was later renamed Zhong'an Town, and is the largest vegetable transit and trade market in Northeast China.

The word Zhong'an in Zhong'an Fort is said to have been determined by the Qing Taizu Nurhachi.

In that year, Nurhachi's father was killed in battle while helping Li Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, to defeat ethnic minority tribes.

In order to appease, Li Chengliang adopted the young Nurhachi.

Once, Li Chengliang inadvertently learned from his subordinates that Nurhachi showed the characteristics of the Son of Heaven and had an extraordinary bearing. Li Chengliang immediately felt that this matter was not trivial, and decided to arrest Nurhachi immediately and nip the matter in the bud in advance.

However, what Li Chengliang never expected was that his wife cared for Nurhachi very much.

When the lady learned that Li Chengliang was going to arrest Nurhachi, she immediately reported the news to Nurhachi.

After Nurhachi got the news, he immediately fled from Guangning City, the location of the Liaodong General Military Office, and ran all the way in the direction of his hometown of Jianzhou.

Li Chengliang, who received the report, could not let Nurhachi escape like this, and immediately divided his troops and sent generals to chase Nurhachi.

The panicked Nurhachi fled for dozens of miles east, burrowing into a large field of reeds, before he was out of danger.

Since then, this experience has been interpreted into many legendary stories, such as: Wang Gao Savior, Crow Rescue, Righteous Dog Protector, etc., which are still widely spread in the Beizhen area.

After returning to Jianzhou, Nurhachi finally formed an elite of the Eight Banners that could fight well, unified the tribes, and ascended to the throne of the emperor after continuous efforts. When he passed by the reed field where he escaped again, he felt that this was a turning point for his peace, so he personally inscribed and named this place "Zhong'an".

Whether this legend is true or not is difficult to verify is difficult to verify, but this story does add a touch of legend to the place of Zhong'anbao.

Later, it was recorded in the "Northeast Historical Monuments" that there was a big red stone in Zhong'anbao Primary School.

In the Qing Dynasty, every year the imperial court had to be sent by the capital to worship more than two ranks. On the day before the sacrifice, a canopy should be erected, and the stone should be placed in the center and washed with water. At the time of the sacrifice, the ceremony is particularly solemn.

The county governor and the city guard of Quang Ninh should dress up and fast, and accompany the sacrifice.

This fast stone is the "Wang Gao Stone" that originated from Wang Gao's Savior, and it is unknown whether it is true or false.

It was already noon after arriving at Zhong'an Fort, Wang Bin asked Sun Chuanfang to order him to go down at noon to rest here for a while and have a meal before leaving, this proposal was unanimously approved by the soldiers below, and this was really tired after riding on the horse for a long time and needed to rest.

So he asked Sun Chuanfang to find a restaurant to prepare for dinner, and by the way, let the horses rest for a while

After finding a restaurant, Wang Bin first instructed Xiao Er to feed the horses before sitting down with the soldiers, looking at this restaurant, it was a little clean, but this time suddenly I saw more than thirty or forty soldiers, which seemed a little crowded, and the people who were originally eating in this restaurant were a little uncomfortable after seeing a group of Qiu Ba.

But later, when I saw these Qiu Ba, they were all in order, and they all let go for a while, chatting about each day, eating their own meals, and returning to the previous lively atmosphere for a while.

Wang Bin asked the store to serve some rice and sauerkraut pork stewed vermicelli, plus Di San Xian, which was enough for a group of people to eat.

Eating and eating involuntarily untie the coat outside, a group of people sitting together to eat is really a little hot, Wang Bin has always been very fast, so after eating, he sat in his place to rest, by the way, you can also listen to the home of other people in this store.

"Alas, do you know that now the bandits in Jinzhou have been wiped out a lot, and there are many more people."

Not far away, a horse-faced man said to the people at the table with him.

"Brother Ma is right, this is now the boundary of Jinzhou, other places, alas, it's not bandits, in my opinion, if the soldiers of Jinzhou run out of the boundary of Jinzhou, they will be clicked by the bandits they have beaten."

A short man at the same table as the horse-faced man said.

"Li San's words have some truth, how much do the bandits who were driven out of the Jinzhou border hate the soldiers of Jinzhou?"

The horse-faced man said after listening to the short man's words

"Alas, don't you all talk about it, don't you see a group of soldiers sitting there, and you are not afraid that those soldiers will come to embarrass you when you discuss these here?"

At this time, a man who seemed to be the leader sitting at the table pointed to Wang Bin and said, and then the people at the table suddenly fell silent.

When Wang Bin heard these words, he was about to go to ask them about the situation they were discussing, but he saw that the people at the table had already eaten and drunk enough and began to check out and walk, and he couldn't catch up and ask for clarification, so he could only forget it.

After eating for a while, after Sun Chuanfang went to settle the account, Wang Bin and the others went to move out of the horses and prepared to continue to the Xinmin Mansion.

When Wang Bin was riding a horse, he always felt that someone was watching his group in Zhong'anbao, but he didn't pay much attention to it, but he just thought that maybe some people were just paying more attention to the soldiers who suddenly appeared in this line.

After passing through the big and small black mountain forts, Wang Bin and the others came to the edge of the Sand River, and Wang Bin decided to stop and let the horses replenish some water.

Taking advantage of the fact that the horses were drinking, Sun Chuanfang first let a few soldiers disperse, and then asked some soldiers to stand on the hills on the side to observe the distance.

Wang Bin sighed in his heart after seeing these actions, it is not a loss that the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces of the five provinces will not even forget to be vigilant when he is resting.

After Sun Chuanfang finished arranging the sentry, Wang Bin asked Sun Chuanfang

"Xinyuan, how far are we from this Xinmin Mansion?"

After listening to Wang Bin's words, Sun Chuanfang immediately opened the map he was carrying, opened it and looked at it, and then said to Wang Bin

"My lord, we have just passed the big and small black mountain forts now, and now we are on the edge of the Shahe River, and then there are Hujiawopu, Erdaojing Station and Baiqi Fort, and the staff department estimates that we will be able to reach Xinmin Mansion before evening."

Wang Bin nodded after listening to Sun Chuanfang's words, and was about to say something.

At this time, suddenly there was a "pop" of gunfire from a distance.
