Chapter 147 Huang Xiu of the old camp
The old camp only had 1,000 men and horses of Huang Xiu, and then more than 100,000 people from Jin left only 60,000 people to fight with Li Guo at the west entrance, and the remaining 40,000 or 50,000 people must have attacked the old camp from the side pass.
Li Guo is really a little hopeless about the situation in the old camp, but Li Guo still has to go to the rescue! Because they are all the generals around him, the families of his brothers, and Li Guo's own.
Li Guo and Liu Tichun went to the rescue, although Li Guo was also injured, fortunately there was no major problem. After bandaging the wounds on his body briefly, Li Guo led people to set off.
Li Guo and Liu Tichun only took 3,000 people to the old camp.
It's not that Li Guo doesn't want to bring more people, but except for the dead, almost all the people who are alive are not lightly injured. Li Twelve was stabbed four or five times, Gu Ying, Niu Decao and others were shot with a lot of arrows, and when they were victorious, they also fainted due to excessive blood loss and couldn't move.
Even among the 3,000 people who followed Li to rescue him, in addition to Liu Tichun's 1,500 people, the other 1,500 people were also injured, and two of them, Zhao Dagou and Wang Dabangzi, who were seriously injured, had to follow.
Li Guo couldn't bear to look at the scene on the battlefield, he ordered Nie Xin to take the people to check the casualties, and then took Liu Tichun and others to run to the old camp.
When Li Guo set off for the old camp, the battle of the old camp was over.
But Huang Xiu did not order the battlefield to be cleaned, nor did he have time to report the battle situation to Li Guo, but led the soldiers all over the mountain to find people. Despite the victory, no one was happy, and everyone went mad in a hurry.
Huang Xiu's throat was smoking, and her body couldn't stop sweating. She was frightened. Because Li Guo's son Li Taiping is gone. Why is Li Taiping gone? This starts with the old battalion defensive battle.
The defensive battle of the old battalion has just ended, and it seems that the time is a little later, and it stands to reason that it will. The battle should have started and ended long ago. Because according to the normal marching speed of the Houjin soldiers, the battle would have started a long time ago, but this was not the case.
According to Dolgon's Jianyì, Huang Taiji secretly led 50,000 elite soldiers to attack the side pass a few days ago.
It stands to reason that the partial pass is an important pass, and it should be much more difficult to fight than the west pass, but the fact is the opposite.
The pass is located in the western part of the Great Wall under the jurisdiction of the governor of Xuanda. Very close to the West Exit Pass. In recent years, because the horse markets in Datong and Zhangjiakou have been opened, the grassland tribes that used to often plunder have rarely invaded. Even if there were, they were all small groups of horses, and they posed no threat to the various passes of the Great Wall.
Guarding the pass was a general surnamed Wang, who had more than 2,000 people in charge. In the various gates of the guarded gates. He is an extremely mediocre person. General Wang, like most of the generals of the Ming army, deducted military salaries and treated soldiers very thinly, so the combat effectiveness of the defenders was not strong. Although General Wang also heard that Hou Jin's soldiers and horses were attacking Xikou Pass, he did not attract the attention of General Wang, let alone guard against the attack of the Later Jin army.
When Houjin's 50,000 elite soldiers suddenly appeared at the side pass, the first thing General Wang did was to run back to his mansion with a smoke. Pack up and take your wife and children with you. Swift gone. The punishment of the court will be talked about later, and it is important to save the lives of the family in front of the eyes first.
Fortunately, the deputy general guarding the side pass was quite heroic, and continued to defend the city with panicked soldiers. The adjutant general encouraged the soldiers, but the soldiers were still very panicked, and the main general ran away, and no one could calm down.
But the lieutenant was very unlucky, and was suddenly killed by a stray arrow while probing the enemy at the head of the city, and then the whole defender broke up and ran away. There was not a single soldier in the city.
However, Huang Taiji did not order to enter the city immediately, he observed for a long time, he was afraid of an ambush, and only then did he order the Houjin soldiers to attack. The reason why Huang Taiji is so serious is that Li Guo of Xikou Pass is too cunning, and he can't guarantee that the guards here are just as bad!
When he entered the partial pass, Huang Taiji was still worried, why was there such a big difference between the partial pass and the Ming army in the meander? No, maybe there is a conspiracy on the part of the Ming army.
But since the partial pass has been defeated, let's take a detour to hit the river meander! Dolgon is still spending time outside the west pass of the meander!
Therefore, while on guard, Huang Taiji ordered the team not to rush forward, and to kill from the side pass to the river meander, and the route of the march was the road through the old camp.
Since the Houjin soldiers captured the partial pass and marched towards the river meander, Huang Xiu knew that the partial pass also had Li Guo's fine works.
She did several things at once.
The first thing was to send someone to inform Li Guo and ask Li Guo to leave quickly, because intelligence showed that Houjin not only had 50,000 heavy soldiers, but also the most elite elite soldiers, and the old battalion could not hold it. If Houjin attacked Li Guo in front and back at Xikou Pass, Li Guo would have no way out.
The second thing is to find Jiang Yingrong. Seeing Jiang Yingrong affectionately hugging her son Li Taiping, Huang Xiu's heart rose with a warmth.
Huang Xiu kissed Li Taiping's little face apologetically, with tears in her eyes. Then, Huang Xiu put away her love and solemnly bowed to Jiang Yingrong.
Jiang Yingrong was taken aback, "Sister, what are you doing here?" ”
"I want you to run! I want you to run away with Li Taiping and the whole battalion's family! Houjin Bing is coming soon, if you don't run, it's too late! Huang Xiu said to Jiang Yingrong.
"In that case, let's run together, why bother fighting with them!" Jiang Yingrong said.
"No! I want to block here for our master, and I want to buy him some time to escape, I'm afraid that our master's temperament will come up, and if he refuses to go, he will be in trouble. Huang Xiu was worried about Li Guo.
"So, you go! If my father and I really have an accident, Li Taiping will entrust it to you! It's also a queen for our lord. You take this and keep it for self-defense. Huang Xiu handed Jiang Yingrong a dagger.
"Sister, don't say that! We'll be fine, Xiao Taiping has me watching, you can rest assured. But I also know my temperament, it's very soft. How can I lead so many family members? Jiang Yingrong was a little worried.
"Don't be afraid, I have ordered Ma Shiyao to go with you, and if you encounter a big event, you can discuss it with him." Huang Xiu pointed to Ma Shiyao on the side, who was standing on the side.
Ma Shiyao originally wanted to follow Huang Xiu to fight with the Houjin soldiers, and didn't want to escort his family, but Huang Xiu changed his mind with just one sentence.
"Shiyao, don't shake your head, this matter is not easy, because I won't give you a single soldier. And you have to protect not only your family, but also your brother Li's son! Huang Xiu said to Ma Shiyao.
Ma Shiyao thought about it and nodded, the importance of Li Taiping is self-evident. So he's ready to flee with his family! Escape? Where to flee? Ma Shiyao looked at the mountains around the old camp and prepared to flee to the mountains.
And Huang Xiu took Wang Si, Zhu Huan and Tie Dan of the child soldiers to guard the most dangerous place on the road connecting the side pass and the meandering river, and the broken pass behind the old camp. Huang Xiu gathered them together.
"Little four, are you afraid?" Huang Xiu asked Wang Si about them.
"Madam, don't be afraid, if Daddy Li and you hadn't adopted us in the first place, we would have starved to death! Afraid of what? If you die again, you have to block the enemy soldiers for Daddy Li! Wang Si said.
"You can't die in vain, fight with those dog-day Houjin soldiers! Kill more and die! Zhu Huan was holding a big knife.
Tie Dan was a little older, and he thought about things thoughtfully, so he knelt down for Huang Xiu, "Madam, the Houjin soldiers are menacing, it's too dangerous here." I ask you to leave the army immediately and leave quickly with my father Li! We are here, we will never disgrace you, and we will desperately block the Houjin soldiers! ”
Huang Xiu shook his head.
"Madam, then offend!" Tie Dan confessed his sin and ordered someone to "come, send the lady away, and carry it away." ”
A few strong soldiers had already prepared, and they were about to tie up Huang Xiu when they came up. Everyone knows Huang Xiu's temperament, loyal and strong, and it is impossible to persuade her to leave! Only tied!
Huang Xiuteng jumped up, pulled out his knife, and scolded, "Little rabbit cubs! You're still against the sky! (To be continued......)
