At the same time in Shengjing, Liaodong.

Lee has already taken Park Dong-hee, Kim Jae-woo and more than a dozen attendants to "escape" back to Shengjing.

After receiving the news, the Shengjing general Ye Keshu immediately sent troops to bring Lee to his line, and more than a dozen attendants such as Park Dong-hee and Kim Jae-woo were also detained.

"Lord Linping, how did you abscond?"

"As far as I know, the Ming army of Gaizhou Wei is heavily guarded, and there is almost no flaw."

Ye Keshu looked at Li and the others with scrutinizing eyes, and his tone was also full of suspicion.

Regarding Ye Keshu's reaction, Xu Yingwei had already expected it, and he had already had a countermeasure.

Li directly told the truth: "Returning to the general, it was the Ming army who deliberately let the ministers come back as internal responses, not the ministers who tried to escape by themselves." ”

"Huh? The Ming army deliberately let you come back to do internal response? Ye Keshu was really caught off guard at this time.

"That's it." Li said with a sincere face, "So the general should quickly lock us up." ”

Ye Keshu originally planned to lock Li up, at least for ten days and half a month, but now Li took the initiative to admit that it was the Ming army who released him, and it would be a little inappropriate to lock him up again.

In any case, Lee was the prince of Joseon.

If Lee is really locked up, it will inevitably affect the morale and morale of the 5,000 Korean troops.

In the event of a mutiny of the 5,000 Korean troops, the gains outweighed the losses, and if the Ming army took advantage of the mutiny of the Korean army to attack Shengjing, it would be even more troublesome, so it must be handled carefully.

At that moment, Ye Keshu waved his hand and said: "The prince of Linping is laughing, North Korea is a vassal state of my Qing Dynasty, and you are the prince of Korea, how can this general lock you up for no reason, but since the Ming army is willing to let the prince of Linping come back, there must be a follow-up plan, but I don't know what the follow-up plan of the Ming army is?" ”

Li had nothing to hide: "The plan of the Ming army is to let the ministers secretly plot against the Korean army to launch a mutiny, seize one or several city gates, and let the Ming army enter the city." ”

"This ......" Ye Keshu's face became a little embarrassed.

Several Jiannu generals on both sides of the division also looked at each other.

To explain this plan of the army, it is not necessarily clever at all.

Even if you are an idiot, you can easily guess the plan of the Ming army.

But it's one thing to be able to guess, and it's another thing to deal with it.

After a long time, Ye Keshu asked a little dryly: "How did the Lord of Linping reply to the Ming army?" ”

Li said with some guilt: "Back to the general, in order to get out as soon as possible, the minister had to make a false accusation and pretend to agree to the conditions proposed by the Ming army, but the minister couldn't prove himself, so he asked the general to detain the minister and his entourage, and wait until he verified that what the minister said was true before releasing him." ”

"There's no need." Ye Keshu could only wave his hand and refuse.

The more Li took the initiative to ask for him to be locked up, the more Ye Keshu couldn't be locked up.

Because paper can't contain fire, every word that General Li Zaiyuan said will reach the ears of the North Koreans, and the North Koreans have always been inferior and sensitive, and Ye Keshu's detention of Li and the more than ten attendants accompanying him without conclusive evidence will inevitably offend the sensitive self-esteem of the North Koreans and leave hidden dangers.

What's worse is that Korea has been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years, from the king of Korea to the people at the lowest level, and their favor and loyalty to the Ming Dynasty can be said to be deep-rooted.

Therefore, Ye Keshu could only let Li and his attendants leave.

Even if he monitors, he can only secretly spy on Li behind his back.

After Li and the others left, Ye Keshu called his eldest son, Dao La, to him.

"Dao La, you send a few people to keep an eye on Li secretly, especially the dozen or so attendants who follow him, and if you find out that someone is sneaking out of the city, or taking advantage of the night to pass the news outside the city, arrest them immediately."

"Huh!" Dao Lama agreed, turned and walked away quickly.

……

Early in the morning, Xu Yingwei and Zhu Cijiong led more than 100 horsemen to the north.

More than a hundred scout cavalry divided into a dozen scout squads, scattered in all directions, and searched along the Great Plains.

When Xu Yingwei first arrived in Gaizhouwei, there were only mules and horses in the army and no war horses, but in the more than a year since he came to Liaodong, large-scale battles have not broken out, and the outpost battle between scouts and night has never stopped.

At the beginning, the Ming army was at an absolute disadvantage in the outpost battle.

The reason why he can't beat it is because of his lack of actual combat experience, and second, because he has no war horses.

However, with the passage of time, the actual combat experience of the Ming army gradually improved, and the situation was slightly better because they also snatched some war horses from the Jiannu Ranch.

But it is only slightly better, and overall it is still at a clear disadvantage.

Because in small-scale outpost battles, the Ming army's flintlock pistols had no advantage over Jiannu's large bow, and the most fatal flaw was that the continuity of firepower was too poor.

A well-trained scout cavalry can reload on horseback, but it is extremely slow, and it can be reloaded in a normal ten seconds, but it can take a minute or more on a galloping horse.

However, Jiannu's big bow could shoot more than a dozen heavy arrows in half a minute.

Therefore, in the outpost battle, the Ming scouts only have one chance, and the error tolerance rate is extremely low.

However, the accuracy of the flintlock pistol is not good, and it is difficult to grasp this only opportunity.

Therefore, in the small-scale outpost battle, the scout cavalry of the Ming army has always been at a disadvantage and suffered a lot of losses.

Zhu Cijiong rode his horse forward, and asked Xu Yingwei: "Xu Zhizhi, your formation is so scattered, aren't you afraid of being suddenly attacked by Jiannu who does not collect at night?" ”

"Why aren't you afraid." Xu Yingwei said helplessly, "But it's more dangerous not to pull it away." ”

Xu Wuniu next to him continued: "King Ding, we didn't open up when we patrolled before, but we were ambushed by the Jiannu cavalry and were almost wiped out. ”

Xu Yingwei said: "Although it is all plains here, the grass grows too high, and thousands of cavalry with 800 or even tens of thousands of cavalry are hidden in the grass, and they can't be found if they don't get closer." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Yingwei said again: "In order to avoid being surrounded by the Jiannu cavalry of the brigade, our scout cavalry can only widen the distance between each other, even if it will suffer from the surprise attack of Jiannu at night, this is probably the lesser of two evils often said by the saint." ”

Zhu Cijiong asked again: "Then you must have suffered a lot of losses under Jiannu's subordinates who didn't collect at night, right?" ”

"Needless to say." Xu Yingwei's face fell, and he said in a deep voice, "In this half-year outpost battle, we have sacrificed more than two hundred scouts. ”

"Xu advised, you won't have to suffer this loss in the future."

Zhu Cijiong said: "Because Lone brought you a good thing." ”

"Something good?" Xu Yingwei asked suspiciously, "What good things did King Ding bring?" ”

As he spoke, a neighing of horses suddenly sounded in the wilderness ahead, followed by two gunshots, and the sound of the guns was faintly mixed with a painful snort.

Xu Yingwei and Zhu Cijiong hurriedly raised their heads and looked ahead,

I saw a few hundred steps ahead, and I don't know when a horse came out of the grass and didn't collect it at night.

It seemed that he had just released an arrow, and then he took a heavy arrow from his quiver behind his back, and was about to buckle it to the bowstring of the big bow.

Almost at the same time, a Ming scout in front of him fell from his horse.

Obviously, this cavalry scout has already been hit by an arrow, so I don't know if he was only wounded or has been shot dead.

"Damn it!" Xu Yingwei punched his fist with hatred, and shouted, "Give me back, don't chase me!" ”

Xu Yingwei summed up a bloody lesson from countless outpost battles, don't pursue Jiannu and don't collect it all night, otherwise you will only shed more blood and suffer greater losses.

However, as soon as Xu Yingwei's words fell, Zhu Cijiong rode a horse to chase after him.

"Xu gives advice, look at it." Zhu Cijiong shouted, "Look at how Gu kills this Jiannu and doesn't accept it at night." ”

"King Ding, come back quickly!" Xu Yingwei was shocked when he saw this, and said in his heart that if the king was a good person, how could the saint spare him? This is the golden branch and jade leaf of the Ming Dynasty, and there must be no accident.

However, Zhu Cijiong turned a deaf ear, and just urged the war horse to chase forward.

Xu Yingwei saw that he couldn't stop Zhu Cijiong, so he hurriedly ordered Xu Wuniu and Xu Yinglong to lead a team of scouts to protect the two wings, and then personally led a team of scout cavalry to follow after him.

However, Zhu Cijiong's war horse was a BMW brought from Nanjing.

Xu Yingwei: The Mongolian war horses they captured couldn't catch up at all.

In a moment, Xu Yingwei and the others were left far behind by Zhu Cijiong.

Seeing this, Xu Yingwei was really in a hurry, and immediately whipped the horse with a whip, but the war horse under his crotch ran off the horse's hooves, and he still couldn't catch up with Zhu Cijiong.

Xu Yingwei could only watch Zhu Cijiong pass the scout cavalry in front.

At this time, there was no Ming cavalry between Zhu Cijiong and Jiannu Yebuhui, and Jiannu in front of him had already discovered the pursuing Zhu Cijiong, and immediately buckled the bowstring to slow down the horse.

Jiannu didn't accept it at night, and from time to time he looked back at the pursuers.

Those who can take on the night are the elite of Jiannu.

Therefore, the effective range of the large bow can reach eighty paces.

Zhu Cijiong also has a clear understanding of this.

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was only a hundred steps.

A hundred paces, this distance for an ordinary flintlock pistol, has exceeded the effective range, even if you shoot standing up, you can't hit accurately, and you can only follow the fate on the back of a galloping horse.

But what Zhu Cijiong was holding in his hand was not an ordinary flintlock pistol, but a rifled flintlock pistol!

While galloping on the horse, Zhu Cijiong had already gotten up from the horse, his buttocks were hanging in the air, only his legs were clamped on the horse's belly, and his whole body rose and fell with the rhythm of the war horse, achieving the perfect unity of men and horses.

At a certain moment, Zhu Cijiong gently pulled the trigger, and then there was a bang.

When I looked at it again, I saw that Jiannu, who was a hundred steps away in front of me, had fallen off the horse at night.
