Long En was very contemptuous of the Dashun army in the city, in his opinion, the Dashun army is the Ming army, the Ming army is the Dashun army, the two are comparable, since the Qing Dynasty can defeat the Ming army, it can defeat the Dashun army, he divided his subordinates into four divisions, cruising outside each gate of the Santun camp to prevent the Dashun army from breaking through from Tunzi.

Because reinforcements would come from the back of the Santun camp, Long En and the five Bayalas were cruising at the north gate of the Santun camp, and Ling Jingyang and the three of them happened to run back from the north side of the Santun camp, and the two people collided not far from the north gate.

Ling Jingyang saw Long En and other Bayala rushing here, scolding Jiannu for being shameless, why is it everywhere? Li Rufeng had a trace of fear and Bayala to fight, only Zhang Luofu, a fighting heart remained unchanged, the two groups of men and horses quickly killed together, Ling Jingyang horse battle was very unskilled, he stopped the running war horse, took out the Kaiyuan bow given to him by Li Daowei, and rode on the horse to shoot the Qing army, the Qing army is a fishing and hunting nation, and the riding skills are also very good, Ling Jingyang's archery skills were not fully exerted at night.

Li Rufeng fought with Bayala hard, only Zhang Luofu rode alone, singled out Long En with a spear, and the eight people fought outside the city in the dark, and the defenders of the north gate only heard the shouts of ding bells and bells outside the city, but they did not dare to go out of the city to support.

After Dong Daqi got the news, he immediately thought that it might be Ling Jingyang and others coming back, and hurriedly ordered to open the city gate, with more than 50 soldiers to support, a few soldiers were left behind, not daring to go out of the city, and were cut down by the old steamed buns that came later, with a big knife and a knife back, and several soldiers suddenly ran faster than rabbits.

At this time, Ling Jingyang was beaten very embarrassed, if it wasn't dark, he would have been cut in half by Bayala, he rode on a horse to avoid Bayala's attack, Zhang Luo supplemented by one enemy and three, not to fall behind, Li Rufeng gradually defeated fear, and Bayala was inseparable, only Ling Jingyang, who was beaten to hide in Tibet, did not come to support the city, Ling Jingyang was going to fold in the Santun camp.

Fortunately, Dong Daqi finally led the reinforcements to arrive, and he came with Yala, who was cruising in the east gate and the west gate, Bayala was strong in combat, ten cavalry rushed over, and took the lives of more than ten Dashun soldiers in one breath.

As a knife hand, the old steamed bun opened the way at the front of the team, he regretted not bringing more people out, more than fifty soldiers, in the blink of an eye, was killed by Jia Jiannu a small half, even if he rescued the banner, it was difficult to withdraw.

They approached Ling Jingyang and the others step by step, Ling Jingyang also saw the rescue inside the city, put down his heart, and hurriedly beckoned Li Rufeng and Zhang Luofu to move closer to the soldiers and horses of the headquarters.

How could Long En give up on these three people, slap the horse's buttocks, and kill Zhang Luofu.

Zhang Luofu didn't have the idea of retreating at all, he ran back, but he was using a drag knife, and found that Bayala was chasing after him, and suddenly looked back at a shot, the head of the gun was like a poisonous snake, burrowing into Longen's chest, and then it was pulled up again, bringing up bursts of snowflakes, and Longen's life was like a deflated ball, quickly disappearing.

Seeing that Long En was killed, the other Bayala attacked Zhang Luofu angrily, Zhang Luofu did not panic at all, he was good at kung fu and better riding, and before Bayala besieged him, he quickly rushed to the vicinity of the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, and was protected by the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, forcing the other Bayalas not to dare to rush over.

Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen are also in the reinforcements, one of them is in the middle of the team with a three-eyed gun and the other is in the middle of the team with a bird gun, aiming at Bayala, as long as Bayala dares to rush over, they dare to fire, and these Jiannu crying father and mother.

Jiannu didn't dare to rush hard, so he rode his horse and galloped, shooting near the infantry army, but it didn't work, and the bow and arrow shot out were blocked by the shield bearers of the Dashun army with shields.

It is definitely uncertain to fight like this, Ling Jingyang and Li Rufeng said: "You must go back quickly, it is estimated that there will be a large army of Jiannu in the back,"

Li Rufeng also thought hard, these Jiannu are really hateful, if they don't withdraw, they will be dumplings by Jiannu reinforcements, no one would have thought that the north gate of Santun Camp would be opened again, this time the soldiers of the Dashun Army in the whole city under the leadership of the whole iron wind, Leng Rutie, screamed and killed Bayala.

They are now the Dashun Army, but not long ago it was the Ming Border Army, the Ming Border Army is the army that guards the border, and Jiannu has been fighting for many years, tonight I vaguely saw Ling Jingyang and others fighting with Jiannu outside the city, although there are few Jiannu people, but there are few Ming soldiers who dare to fight with Jiannu field.

The blood in the hearts of the soldiers in the city was stimulated, under the leadership of the two generals, they mustered up the courage to kill Jiannu, Bayala saw that hundreds of soldiers of the Shun army rushed out of the city, they were only twenty people, how could they beat hundreds of people, so they hurriedly withdrew to the north, Ling Jingyang and others were immediately rescued, everyone escorted Ling Jingyang and others back to the city, and after returning to Tunzi, Ling Jingyang ordered the city gate to be closed, and the whole army was ready to defend the city.

Leng Rutie thought that there were only a few Jiannu troops outside the city, and there was no ability to attack the city, Ling Jingyang told him that there was a Jiannu army that was coming here, and the target should be the Santun camp, and the soldiers only needed to hold on for a few days, and the large army would come to the rescue.

When the soldiers heard that there was a Jiannu siege city, they hurriedly put bundles of bows and arrows on the city wall, and all the weapons such as knives, guns, swords, and bows were also prepared, waiting for the Jiannu to attack the city.

Then Ling Jingyang convened the officers above the general post of the whole army, and gathered together to discuss how to resist the attack of Jiannu, Jizhen soldiers and horses are not strangers to Jiannu, but Ling Jingyang brought the Dashun army, most of them do not know Jiannu, more than 500 people are a little difficult to defend the Santun camp, but it is not impossible to fight, but after resisting the attack of Jiannu, where should I go?

This is the problem that everyone is most concerned about, and it is also the problem that Ling Jingyang needs to solve, Ling Jingyang at this moment, has the advantage of opening the eyes of the sky, and there are only a few days before the Battle of Shanhaiguan, during this time, the Dashun Army and the Guanning Army scouts will have a skirmish, and the battlefield of the battle between the two sides is near Shanhaiguan.

Santun camp is not a small distance from Shanhaiguan, this will not be the main battlefield, and Jiannu will not put valuable troops here to drain it, Ling Jingyang is very confident and cheers everyone up, as long as he holds for a few days, Jiannu will withdraw.

Ling Jingyang suddenly remembered another question, what day is it today, and there are still a few days before the Battle of Shanhaiguan?

"Steamed buns, what time is it today?"

The old steamed bun half-closed his eyes, thought for a while and said, "April 16." ”

Ling Jingyang couldn't help but widen his eyes, he was a person with a strong time principle, how could he ignore the time of the Shanhaiguan War at this time? Today is still five days away from April 21, more than 500 people want to resist the five-day attack of Jiannu, they need to pay a lot of sacrifices, and Li Zicheng of Shanhaiguan is defeated, will he choose to retreat from Sanyingtun to Jizhou?

If you retreat from here, won't these three camps become the main battlefield?

Ling Jingyang thought a lot in an instant, but he had the impression that the soldiers of the Santun Camp did not appear in the Battle of Shanhaiguan, even if it was described in the history books, it was only a few strokes, could it be that the Santun Camp would become a new battlefield for the Dashun Army and Jiannu after the Battle of Shanhaiguan?

Dong Daqi watched Ling Jingyang's expression change, and asked with concern: "Zhangqi, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ling Jingyang and Dong Daqi shook their heads, saying that they didn't have to worry, and said to everyone: "Now distribute the troops, Zhang Luofu, among us, you are the most capable of fighting, you lead fifty troops, as the captain of the fire brigade, where you can't resist, you will go to support." ”

Zhang Luofu couldn't wait for a vigorous battle with Jiannu, and nodded his head as fast as a chicken pecking rice, Ling Jingyang ordered again, Quan Tiefeng led a hundred people to guard the east gate, Leng Ru Tie soldiers to guard the west gate with one hundred, Li Rufeng led a hundred to guard the north gate, and the rest went to guard the south gate with him.

He gave a death order to all the soldiers to be sure to hold on until April 20, before which there were those who broke through and beheaded, and those who surrendered, chatter.

Everyone suddenly received the order, Ling Jingyang brought Dong Daqi, Lao Mantou, Zhu Youzhen, Wang Chengen and other more than 120 people to garrison the south gate, and set up bows and arrows, fire guns, and some hard objects such as stones and wood at the south gate.

The group came to the south gate city wall, the old steamed bun asked Ling Jingyang for instructions, whether to arrange for his powerful subordinates to guard the grain and grass, Ling Jingyang thought about it, and asked Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen to guard the grain and grass, Zhu Youzhen's face was suddenly ugly, he wanted to be a turtle with a shrunken head, and Ling Jingyang said: "Zhangqi, I am not a sick man, I am willing to spill blood on the city wall with you." ”

His eyes were firm, completely different from Ling Jingyang's decadent appearance before he saw him hanging himself in Bauhinia City, Ling Jingyang half-closed his eyes, suddenly opened them, pulled out half of his waist knife, and said solemnly: "Leng Pang, do you think that Ben Zhangqi waist knife is a vegetarian?" ”

Zhu Youzhen's face had a rich expression, there was disdain, anger, and even more shame, he was a dignified Ming Emperor, but he wanted to resist the attack of Jiannu here, but he was threatened with a knife by a low-level general, which made him almost lose face.

Wang Chengen hurriedly pulled Zhu Youzhen away, one of them raised his head, the other lowered his head, and carried two bird guns to guard the grain, Ling Jingyang saw that they went in the direction of the martial arts field, and then turned around and the old steamed bun, Dong Daqi said: "Grain and grass are our lifeblood, and we must arrange them effectively, and we must trust people to protect them." ”

This sentence means to let Lao Mantou, Dong Daqi and others know that Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen are his henchmen and powerful subordinates, and everyone nodded tacitly, Dong Daqi was quite disgusting and said to Ling Jingyang: "The flag is smart." ”

......

The soldiers of the Santun camp were fierce, waiting for Jiannu to attack, but from the morning to the afternoon, they did not see the shadow of Jiannu.

In the evening, the east gate of the Santun camp, the north gate suddenly to the drum sound, the sound is urgent, this is to the whole city soldiers to send an alarm, the east gate, the north gate has the enemy appeared, Ling Jingyang in the short after, found that the south gate also has a large number of enemy troops, so the south gate also sounded the drumbeat, only the west gate has no trace of the enemy, or quiet.

Ling Jingyang ordered all the troops to enter the battle state, to defend the Santun camp, outside the city Jiannu is subordinate to the yellow flag soldiers and horses, there are three hundred and eight banner soldiers, eight hundred armored people, one thousand clothes, the leader is the yellow flag leader Ganda, he actually arrived in Santun Yang in the morning, but did not give the order to attack, because he led this soldier and horse does not belong to the elite troops of Jiannu, nor does it belong to the field troops.

They entered the customs from Xifengkou, trying to cut off the grain route between the Dashun army from Jizhou to Shanhaiguan, who had ever wanted to meet the Dashun army in the Santun camp, the troops under their command rushed for days, and they were already a tired division, and they urgently needed to rest and recuperate, and they had to recover their physical strength in order to restore their combat effectiveness.

Therefore, he ordered the troops not to approach the Santun camp, and wait until they had enough energy to plan for the long term.

Later, Bayala, who was besieging the Santun camp, rushed to join him and told Ganda the news of Longen's death, Ganda frowned and said, "This Dashun army has some strength, how many troops are there in this city?" ”

More than a dozen Bayalas suddenly knelt on the ground and prayed to Ganda for revenge for Longen: "There are only a few hundred people in the city, and the servants ask the lord to avenge Longen." ”

"Get up, we are ordered by the regent to cut off the grain and grass of the Dashun army, these three camps must be pulled out, now it is dark, you all go down to prepare, attack the city at midnight, and capture the three camps for Lao Tzu before dawn."

Chirp

The generals under his command responded to Ganda in unison, and went back to gather the soldiers to make pre-war preparations for tonight's siege, the main force of the Qing army to attack the city is to bring a thousand clothes, these clothes are dead and dead, it's a big deal to grab some back, the clothes rush up to consume the weapons and ammunition of the Dashun army, and when the Dashun army and the clothes fight, the armor people kill into the battlefield, the combat effectiveness of the armor people is second only to the eight banner soldiers, they join the battlefield, they can attack the city in one fell swoop, wipe out all the Dashun troops in the city, occupy the Santun camp, take the Santun camp as a stronghold, cut off the food route of the Dashun army, Create favorable conditions for the regent to defeat the Dashun army.

If it weren't for the banner waving at the head of the city and under the city, Ling Jingyang would have thought that the Qing army outside the city was cooking, he watched the Qing army swaggering and cooking on the fire, without a little defense, thinking that the Qing army had been fighting the Ming Dynasty over the years, and he was not afraid at all when he encountered the Dashun army composed of Ming people.

How good it would be if you gave the Qing army a punch at this time, Ling Jingyang suddenly had this idea in his mind, and he suddenly found that the Qing army's defense was very lax, and they were all clothed in front of the position, that is, a group of unclothed slaves, and behind them was a group of well-equipped soldiers, and he couldn't see clearly in the back, it should be the Eight Banners of the Qing Army Headquarters.

He hurriedly summoned Li Rufeng and other generals to discuss with everyone whether it was possible to defeat the Qing army and let the Qing army lose part of its vital strength, so as to reduce the defensive pressure in the next few days.
