Chapter 41: A New Worry—Juehua

Mang Gutai exclaimed in surprise again: "Great! I revived my father Khan! I revived my father Khan! Father Khan! Wake up! Father Khan! ”

But, no matter how hard he tried, he could not wake his father Khan from his coma.

"This ......" Mang Gutai used his recklessness to make Ah Shan and the three of them roll their eyes angrily for a while before they came to their senses.

Ah Shan looked at Lao Bahuang Taiji, and when he saw that he nodded slightly, he said: "Father Khan is in a coma, and the battle situation is critical!" Listen to me, three of you! ”

"Big brother, please speak!" Huang Taiji was the first to speak out, and Amin and Mang Gutai had no choice but to echo it.

Ah Shan said: "Third brother, you are the strongest among our brothers, and you are the only one who can hold your father Khan and retreat to a safe place as quickly as possible." Therefore, go first with your father! I'll wait for the queen! ”

"Wow!" Mang Gutai answered, and directly stood up with the majestic body of the slave chief. But when he looked at his father's dust and blood on his face, he couldn't bear it, so he wanted to find a cloth to wrap it in.

However, there is no idle and clean cloth to be found on the battlefield.

However, Mang Gutai's luck was still very good, and a glance of his inadvertent glance made him see a piece of yellow and clear brocade.

Without thinking about it, he held his father with one hand, and with the force of turning the other hand, he gently picked it up and wrapped it around the slave chief's body.

Surprised that this piece of brocade was extremely in line with his father's noble status, Mang Gutai ran wildly and quickly left the battlefield that was still threatened by artillery fire.

"Flag! Flag! ”

Ah Shan was looking for eight flags representing the glory of the tribe, but the seven that he found had been scorched by the artillery fire in their place.

I finally grabbed the last stout flagpole and lifted it up like a life-saving straw, but I saw that the pole was slippery.

Looking at the situation, I saw that the third brother Mang Gutai had wrapped the body of the slave chief with this yellow flag that was only stained with some blood and dust, and then ran away without a trace.

"Flag! Flag! Third brother, you ...... This...... Ay...... You're such a hammer! Mistaken for me! ”

Ah Shan tried to stop him, but he didn't succeed, so he coughed violently, not knowing whether he was angry with his reckless third brother or smoked by the dust he raised from running wildly.

Seeing that the city was obviously overwhelmed, and there was a faint tendency to retreat, Jiannu was faintly in the middle of it.

The honest ancestor Dashou wanted to learn and sell Chongzhen's heart-attacking plan yesterday, that is-Gou Jiannu was defeated and retreated! Jiannu Dog is defeated!

However, a shout through the tin horn was ahead of him.

Zu Dashou would have been furious, but when he heard the content of the shout, he couldn't help his blood burning, and he shook his arms in surprise and inexplicably, and roared angrily: "The slave chief is dead!" The Slave Chief is dead! ”

This kind of battlefield attack plan that makes a judgment before the facts are clarified, only an unruly bastard like Huang Chongzhen can think of it at that moment, and shout it shamelessly.

But come to think of it, who can survive the full eleven rounds of shelling of the seven Hongyi cannons?

Seeing the galloping Mang Gutai and the glittering brocade in his arms, he heard the other three Baylors with their personal guards, shouting "Don't panic" while squeezing the soldiers vigorously.

Seeing the many nobles of the Eight Banners again, they had already looked at the dust raised by Mang Gutai and chased after them, and many of them were crying hoarsely, for fear that their loyalty would be compared by others.

No matter how simple the Jiannu soldiers faced this situation, I am afraid they had to believe that the noisy sound made by the group of dog Ming troops at the head of the city was true - their Great Khan, the great leader of their tribe, had really been killed by the cannons.

A cavalryman who had retreated fairly calmly suddenly saw a flash of golden light on the dusty land in front of him, and casually bent down and copied it.

Holding it in his hand and looking at it, he threw it back in fright, only to mutter, "It's the Great Khan's golden sword!" Is the Great Khan really dead? The Great Khan is really dead! ”

The voice became louder and louder, and finally it spread ten, ten, hundreds, and reached the ears of every Jiannu soldier.

The collapse finally took shape, and the army was defeated.

Even if the four major Baylors join forces with the four Little Baylors to fight hard, and there are many loyal and brave generals who work hard to help, it is irreversible.

Jiannu, after all, ushered in the first rout since the slave chieftain raised troops to challenge the Ming Dynasty with seven hatreds.

The soldiers who had survived the battle, who had almost exhausted their strength at the head of the city, were finally able to beat their weapons on the city wall and roar in a cheerful tone: "The slave chief is dead!" Jiannu is defeated! The Slave Chief is dead! Jiannu is defeated! ”

The sound was condensed with the tin horn, as if chasing after Jiannu's hips, which made it even more terrifying, like half of the water at low tide, and it receded extremely completely.

The only way Zhou Ji celebrates his victory is probably to hug his brother Huang Chongzhen fiercely.

To complete the key blow to the slave chief by himself, Huang Chongzhen also felt very relieved and proud.

However, there are all regrets - if a strong cavalry reserve is sent out of the city to charge at this time, no matter how good Jiannu is, I am afraid that the Ming army will only take the opportunity to expand the results of the battle.

But it's a pity that Ning Yuan's troops are really insufficient in the face of the national mobilization of Houjin's "out for soldiers", and Yuan Chonghuan still feels that he can't bear it even when he sends out his own guards as reserves.

If it weren't for the success of Yuan Chonghuan's strategy of "luring the enemy with his body", if it weren't for the cannon carriage made in a race against time to transform the bulky Hongyi cannon and increase the shelling distance of a full mile, if it weren't for Huang Chongzhen's first-class artillery skills......

All in all, the victory in this battle is the result of everyone's hard work, and it is the only big victory in the previous battles of Mingjin, which is a miracle and is indeed worthy of celebration and pride.

However, after a short period of joy and relief, Huang Chongzhen had other worries rising in his heart.

He set his sights on the place where the sea and the sky were connected in the east—in the sea area eighteen miles away from Ningyuan, there was an island that was surrounded by thick ice, called Juehua.

Zhou Ji keenly felt his mood fluctuations, followed his gaze, and saw that the sea was vast, and there was nothing else, so he asked suspiciously and with concern, "What's wrong?" What are you looking at? ”

Huang Chongzhen said: "I'm looking at the upcoming Juehua War, how tragic it will be." ”

"Juehua War? Are you saying that Jiannu can't capture Ningyuan, and will turn to attack Juehua Island? Zhou Ji was stunned, startled, and said with a smile, "It's impossible!" The eighteen-mile sea route is an insurmountable moat for the Jiannu cavalry! ”

Of course, Huang Chongzhen also knew that it was hard to believe, but when he saw that the sea surface that should have been rough was no longer in the water due to the ice on the surface, he firmly believed that his understanding of history would not be wrong.

So, he shook his head and said, "I'll go find the big handsome." ”

Zhou Ji guessed his concern based on his gaze, so he chased after him and said, "Don't worry, it's just a thin layer of ice, which happens almost every winter, and we Guanning people have long been used to it." ”

"No, it's not thin ice, it's already thick. And the weather is getting colder, and the ice will continue to thicken, sometimes even so thick that it is no problem to drive on it, let alone run horses. ”

Huang Chongzhen's footsteps are very fast, very steady, even Zhou Ji, who was born as a scout, can't keep up, plus he doesn't dare to be like this guy, he goes to report to Yuan Chonghuan at every turn, so he just follows from afar.

"Handsome! Handsome! After Huang Chongzhen walked down the Yongqing city wall, he soon saw Yuan Chonghuan's figure on the street, and he shouted urgently.

Yuan Chonghuan had just made an inspection, and he also celebrated with the soldiers, boosted morale, and told Haozu Dashou to seize the time to repair the city defenses, treat the wounded, and replenish the equipment to defend the city, so as to prevent Jiannu from killing a horse gun.

In addition, he also specially allowed Zu Dashou to send some soldiers and auxiliaries who were quick with their hands and feet, and put them under the city through hanging baskets, so as to clean up the battlefield as much as possible, collect strategic materials, and destroy all the camps of Jiannu.

Yuan Chonghuan, who was busy with all this, was about to rush back to Ningyuan Daofu at this time to write good news to the Beijing masters who were not optimistic about him.

In order to put the news of "Ningyuan's great victory" into the customs as soon as possible, and then spread it all over the world, and by the way, let yourself be famous all over the world.

At that time, Ning Yuan's army, as the first army to resist Jiannu's attack and defeat it fiercely, will definitely get a lot of support.

He Yuan Chonghuan will also shine brightly because of this, and even replace Gao Di, who has just been in office for a long time, and become the new governor of Liaodong.

By that time, he will have a lot of resources to build this army into a real iron army.

Yuan Chonghuan's mind kept swirling with these bloody thoughts, and he couldn't wait to make them come true.

Therefore, when he heard someone calling out to him from afar, he turned around without hesitation.

However, when he saw that it was Chongzhen's kid, he laughed and took a few steps up.

This surprised the guards who knew his way of doing things very well, but even more surprising was yet to come.

I saw that when Huang Chongzhen trotted to Yuan Chonghuan and stood still, the latter stepped forward and punched him heavily on the shoulder, and gave him a big hug, saying: "In this battle, you have made great contributions!" ”

Feeling the gaze of the guards behind Yuan Chonghuan towards him, and because of this group of actions, he changed from anger to softness, Huang Chongzhen understood that this handsome man was easing the relationship between himself and his guards.

So, he sincerely hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you for the grace of the handsome!" ”

Yuan Chonghuan patted him on the shoulder encouragingly, which meant that the knot was completely untied, and said, "Is there anything important that you are looking for such and such in such a hurry?" ”
