Chapter 404: Reinforcements (3)
Xu Yun was a little stunned when she saw Fang Xiaoyan, and said a little shyly: "What are you doing in a daze?" Let's go! ”
"Oh, uh-huh, uh-huh."
Fang Xiaoyan immediately turned his horse's head and took Xu Yun to Ninghua City, which was still twenty miles away from Ninghua City, and he found that there were a few unknown cavalry active here.
He stopped moving forward and led Xu Yun to the back of a hillside, staring at the group of people with his eyes.
This group of people are also dressed as soldiers, Fang Xiaoyan can't be sure which force they are, this group of people is resting in a hillside forest, it is not dawn at this time, and suddenly another cavalry rushes here.
When passing through the forest, the cavalry in the forest, led by a man, drove the war horse, rushed up with weapons, and the two sides fought fiercely, and after a while, the cavalry in the forest eliminated the cavalry passing through the forest.
Fang Xiaoyan was not surprised, after all, he had seen too many killings, but Xu Yun was frightened to see it, a group of big men were killed like this, she carried a fire gun from her back, aimed at the cavalry in the woods, if she dared to rush up, she would kill them with one blow.
At this time, the group of cavalry suddenly rushed in the direction of Fang Xiaoyan, which scared Fang Xiaoyan enough, he asked Xu Yun to leave quickly, and he came to lead away this group of enemies.
But these dozens of cavalrymen came to a distance of more than a hundred steps from Fang Xiaoyan, and stopped, and one of them shouted in the crowd: "Is it a friend of Ning Wuguan?" ”
Fang Xiaoyan recognized this voice, it was not someone else, but Ling Jingyang and Zhang Luofu, the traitor of the entire Governor's Mansion, he rode forward, Xu Yun wanted to hold him, but he didn't hold her, Fang Xiaoyan came straight to Zhang Luofu.
"Zhang Luofu, long time no see?"
Zhang Luofu also recognized Fang Xiaoyan's voice, and felt a little guilty in his heart, but he quickly adjusted, and said to Fang Xiaoyan: "I slaughtered some Qing soldiers outside the forest just now, are you going to Ninghua City?" ”
"Hmph, where am I going, I have a relationship with you for half a copper coin, so let's hurry back to Yicheng and serve your family, long live, right?"
One of Zhang Luofu's subordinates drove the war horse to take a step forward, but was stopped by Zhang Luofu, Zhang Luofu and Fang Xiaoyan continued: "Your soldiers and horses in Ninghua City were captured by the Qing army
Encircled, the Qing army still has more than 10,000 reinforcements on the way, and if you want to save the soldiers and horses of Ninghua City, you have to be fast. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Luofu left with his subordinates, Fang Xiaoyan didn't believe his words, and after making sure that Zhang Luofu walked away, he came to the woods again, and looked at the corpses on the ground, all of which were Qing soldiers with money rattails.
He then took Xu Yun to continue to Ninghua City, and after arriving at the outskirts of Ninghua City, there was a large area of Qing army camps. Ninghua City was indeed besieged by the Qing army.
The Special Bureau had three soldiers in Ninghua City, but none of them came back to report the military situation to him, perhaps because the Qing army was besieging the city, and the three did not have time to withdraw, or Gao Ding ordered the city to be closed, and no one was allowed to leave the city.
Li Rufeng was also on the periphery of Ninghua City, and met with Fang Xiaoyan, Fang Xiaoyan told Li Rufeng about what he saw Zhang Luofu on the road, and after Li Rufeng heard it, he pulled out his waist knife and yelled with his subordinates: "Go, go with Lao Tzu to kill Zhang Luofu." ”
Fang Xiaoyan hurriedly said: "Brother Rufeng, Zhang Luofu slaughtered a group of Qing soldiers on the way, and he said that there is also a Qing army of more than 10,000 people, which is also rushing to Ninghua City. ”
Li Rufeng gasped, he asked Fang Xiaoyan to rush back to Ningwuguan and Ling Jingyang to report, he went to the periphery of Ninghua City to continue to obtain information, to see if there were still Qing troops on the way to Ninghua City?
Li Rufeng led the cavalry to the south of Ninghua City, and ran for 20 kilometers in one night.
After dawn, I finally saw a larger Qing army, which was camping on a high ground, this Qing army was a mixture of the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion, and the whole army had more than 10,000 people with infantry and bows.
Retreat to a Shangqiu north of Ninghua City, where they were ambushed by a group of Qing troops who were scouts on the periphery of the Qing army besieging Ninghua City.
After Zhang Luofu ambushed the Qing army last night, the Qing army generals gave reinforcements to the peripheral scouts, and set up ambushes on Ninghua City and Ningwuguan Road in an attempt to eliminate the Ming scout troops.
Li Rufeng did not bring a lot of cavalry this time, there were only more than 50 cavalry with him, and they were besieged by more than 400 Qing infantry cavalry.
After Li Rufeng hacked to death seven or eight Qing soldiers
, and gradually lost the Qing soldiers to besiege, and the besieging Qing soldiers were also very surprised, how could this group of Ming troops have such a strong will to fight, almost all of them are dead, and they still do not surrender.
Zhang Luofu came again, after he was defeated by the Qing army, he led the troops to fight guerrilla warfare in Shanxi, as long as there was a Qing army besieging the city, he would haunt where he was, if it wasn't for the huge power of the Qing army in Yicheng, he had no way to get close, he still hunted and killed the Qing army outside Yicheng.
When he found out that the Qing army was attacking Ninghua City, he immediately took his subordinates to Ninghua City to attack the Qing army scouts here, most of his subordinates did not understand why he did this, many of his subordinates left the team after the battle, and finally there were more than 100 cavalry left, and they continued to fight with him.
Last night, he raided dozens of Qing cavalry scouts, he knew that the Qing army would choose to retaliate, so he led his troops to walk on the roads of Ninghua and Ningwu Pass, and at dawn, he found a Qing army ambushing here, and he also led his troops to ambush at a greater distance.
Sure enough, not long after, Li Rufeng was ambushed by the Qing army, he saw Li Rufeng being ambushed, and hurriedly rushed to support with his troops, but because the distance was too far, when he arrived, almost all of Li Rufeng's subordinates were killed, and there were only seven cavalry with good kung fu and Li Rufeng who were desperately rushing to kill.
After Zhang Luofu entered the battle group, he instantly crushed the Qing army, and then frantically harvested his life, Li Rufeng also took the rest of his subordinates to slash and kill the Qing soldiers, he wanted to avenge his subordinates, under the attack of Zhang Luofu's cavalry, the Qing army that ambushed Li Rufeng was all annihilated.
After the battle, Li Rufeng saw that it was Zhang Luofu who saved his life, and he stared at Zhang Luofu deadly, eager to chop Zhang Luofu's head with a knife.
Zhang Luofu looked at him brightly, wanted to speak but couldn't speak, and finally left with his subordinates, Li Rufeng looked at Zhang Luofu's back, and then looked at the corpse of the Qing army on the ground, gave up the idea of raiding Zhang Luofu, and took his subordinates back to Ningwuguan.
In Ningwu Pass, Ling Jingyang listened to Fang Xiaoyan's report, he got two pieces of news, one was indeed the Qing army besieging Ninghua City, and Zhang Luofu was also attacking the Qing army in Ninghua City, but Fang Xiaoyan was not sure if there was really a Qing army attacking Ninghua City.
At noon, Li Rufeng rushed back and reported to Ling Jingyang that there was indeed a Qing army of more than 10,000 people, less than twenty miles away from Ninghua City, and he could arrive at Ninghua City this evening.
