Chapter 65: Dragon Trapped Shoal
"Holy Wisdom!"
After reading the three books, Li Yutian knelt down and shouted.
Wu Sangui was still immersed in it, and immediately put down the manual after hearing it, and hurriedly knelt down together.
"Just look at it, what are you talking about! If in doubt, just ask, no problem shut up! Zhu Youjian was startled and looked disgusted.
Li Yutian really didn't pat on the back, he sighed from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't expect to touch his nose, rub his nose, and sit back on the square bench in embarrassment.
Wu Sangui squinted at him, Lao Tzu was watching wonderfully, he was startled by you, and sat back in a huff.
The two of them watched it all afternoon, and until the evening, they were still reading carefully, studying carefully, and asking for advice from time to time.
Zhu Youjian was very satisfied, but he was also very tired, and when he saw that the sunset had been set for a long time and the sky was like ink, he blew the two away.
Early the next morning, Li Yutian and Wu Sangui met with two dark circles under their eyes.
It's another whole day, and I don't leave in Chongzhen's study, and I feel like I'm seeking the truth.
Zhu Youjian was helpless, thinking to himself, he will leave for Beijing tomorrow, and it would be good to communicate with them more today.
The three of you and the ministers talked to me until late at night, and then they said goodbye to Tian Shouxin's careful urging.
At sunrise in the east, Zhu Youjian led 300 guards to set off.
Wu Sangui and others strongly objected, believing that 300 people were too dangerous, and they had to ask for 10,000 horses to rest assured.
Zhu Youjian had no choice but to make a holy decree to stop a few people from nagging.
300 people changed into regular clothes and set off lightly, and it was impossible for people who did not know what they were in to think that this was the team of the Ming Emperor.
……
After leaving Jinzhou for two days, he had already passed Ningyuan City.
Everyone was in a relaxed mood, especially when they thought of the heroism of the previous pursuit of Jianyu on this road, and everyone had a proud look on their faces.
It's early summer, the air is clear, and you can see the mountains to the west and occasionally the sea to the east!
Although the scenery is generally the same, the soldiers, as the victorious army and accompanied by the emperor, do not feel bored at all.
After a day's journey, Zhu Youjian reined in the reins of his horse, looked around, looked at the sunset, and said loudly: "It's not early, let's set up camp, be careful, and arrange the scout and dark sentry." ”
After receiving the order, he led the team to participate in the general Huang Sheng, and quickly arranged it.
Huang Sheng is the earliest general of the Flying Dragon Army, and he usually follows Chongzhen most of the time, and he doesn't have much military exploits, but he is still very complacent.
After all, Chongzhen let him guard him wherever he went, obviously trusting him, and it was a matter of time before he soared.
In fact, the detectives had already reconnoitred this place in the afternoon.
Now set up camp, be sure to check again, after all, the emperor's safety is more important than anything else, and no one will take it lightly.
More than 50 of them scattered away, galloping out on horseback, in four directions, south, south, north, and west, surveying the terrain, searching the mountains and forests, and exploring the ambush, all with great care.
Huang Sheng looked at the detective in the distance and began to arrange other matters.
Fifteen miles north of Chongzhen's camp, a small group of people crouched in the grass, holding bows and arrows aimed at a cavalryman.
Sou......
The Ming detective rode off his horse in response.
"Enemy attack!"
Although the scout who landed on the ground was hit by an arrow in the chest, his mind was still quite clear, and he took out the signal fireworks in his arms, ready to release.
Sou......
Another arrow.
Nail his hand to the ground.
Whoosh ......
……
The scouts everywhere were attacked in the same way, and without seeing who the enemy was, they were shot and fell from their horses, and died without looking at them.
The enemy's arrows are extremely accurate and fast, and no one can give a signal.
On the side of the camp, the cooking has already begun to be buried, the aroma of horse meat wafts far away, the mellow aroma of rice is also lingering, and the soldiers are moving their fingers, and they have started the best time of the day.
"Yellow Head, the scout hasn't come back yet!" A pawn came to report. Huang Sheng stayed very well, and his subordinates called him Huangtou.
"None of them came back?" Huang Sheng suddenly felt bad.
"Not a single one. Maybe it's ......"
"No kind!"
Huang Sheng's face changed, and he immediately shouted: "Form a formation, meet the enemy!" ”
Huang Sheng's horse ran back and forth in the camp, "Set up a circle formation and protect the emperor!" ”
"Gao Chuanwu, the person who took your little flag, go to Ningyuan for help quickly!"
"Fu Shouguang, the person with your little flag, go to Shanhaiguan for help!"
Zhu Youjian heard the noise, walked out of the military tent, and when he saw Huang Sheng like this, he knew that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, it's been nearly half an hour, none of the scouts have returned, and no one has even sent a signal, I feel like we are surrounded by a large group of enemy troops!"
Zhu Youjian listened, looking in all directions, the wilderness is flat, it is difficult to hide, this place is between Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan, and has not been ruled by Jianjiao or Mongolia, and theoretically there will be no large enemy army.
But the strange disappearance of the detective is definitely not a good phenomenon.
"Prepare for battle, throw away unnecessary objects, travel lightly, and prepare to break through!" Zhu Youjian drank heavily.
Huang Sheng felt that it was okay to stick to it, but he didn't expect Chongzhen to break through directly, could it really be that it was a life and death crisis?
Just when the Ming army was seriously preparing for battle, there was a horn sound in the distance.
"Uh......h Woo...... Woo......"
The trumpets are melodious, but the enemy is not visible.
All the Ming troops were nervous.
It's nothing to die in battle, behind them, but the Ming Emperor.
Zhu Youjian once again ordered all staff to be on alert, and everyone was ready to break through at any time.
The horns were whining, and the enemy's hundred-man cavalry was constantly passing in the distance, and although there was no attack, it was extremely dangerous.
After waiting all night, the enemy did not attack, and by dawn, all the Ming soldiers were tired and sleepy.
"They don't attack all night, they just blow their horns from time to time, aren't they afraid that we have reinforcements?" Wang Chengen looked at the rising sun and said angrily.
"The people sent out by Huang Sheng can't get to the place!" Zhu Youjian said in a deep voice.
"Holy Lord, you mean they were all intercepted and killed?" Wang Chengen was horrified.
"It's inevitable. Ning Yuan came here, half a day can be reached, Shanhaiguan came here, it didn't take a whole night. It's dawn now, but there are no reinforcements......" Zhu Youjian stopped talking, looked at the rising sun, and was silent for a long time.
He had never been in such a dilemma.
Although he knew very well that there was a dangerous enemy not far away, watching in the shadows, and would pounce on them at any moment and kill them.
But he didn't dare to march quickly and fled from here.
After a night of defense, everyone was very tired, and if they hurried to the road, once they were exhausted, they would be attacked, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
More than 50 scouts should have been killed, and a total of 20 people who asked for help from two small banners must also be intercepted and killed.
Now there are only more than 220 people left on Zhu You's fitness side.
Zhu Youjian said to Huang Sheng: "The enemy can silently destroy all the scout cavalry in all directions, not to mention three or five thousand elite cavalry!" The strength of the army is obviously several times that of ours, but it is always waiting, which is to consume our will and physical strength. ”
Huang Sheng frowned, not knowing what to do.
Tian Shouxin and Wang Chengen were also in a hurry, if they were surrounded by three or five thousand people, they would shoot arrows alone, and it would be enough to wipe them out.
"We need to be a hundred times more careful, and we need to be in combat condition at all times, the enemy is making us suffer from both physical and mental drain."
Huang Sheng listened and gritted his teeth: "Who the hell is it, it's really a femme fatale!" ”
The Ming army suffered from double attrition, and the enemy may be resting, occasionally sending people out to blow two horns to disgust you, and from time to time sending a hundred people out to deter, but he himself is waiting for work and giving you a fatal blow at any time.
"Holy Lord, I'll escort you out!" Huang Sheng hurriedly said, and Wang Chengen also stepped forward, with an expression of looking at death as if he were at home.
"The enemy should be in the thousands, and our little people are concentrated to break through, as long as they are trapped, they will definitely die."
"What then?"
Zhu Youjian forced himself to calm down and said:
"Let's divide into 3 ways first, and then choose the opportunity to consciously scatter and escape, I'll see who he can chase!"
