The harrier crouched on the slope, munching on the weeds it picked everywhere and keeping its head down to watch the trail below.

It shouldn't be, why haven't you come yet? He was a little puzzled, he had been dormant for nearly two hours, and he was reluctant to even spill urine, if the bastard surnamed Wu didn't come with him, wouldn't he suffer in vain.

When I was bored, I only heard a string of crisp partridge calls, "Hook and go!" "Short four tones, rising and rapid.

Hearing the code, the harrier's eyes lit up, and after a little thought, he pinched the sides of his mouth with his hands and blew a partridge whistle in response.

"Hook Boat, Hook Boat."

You come and go, vividly, only hear the sound of birds, but do not see people.

He fought with the Tartar sentry cavalry no less than ten times, and lost many brothers by not closing the camp at night.

Today's horse harriers have learned well, and no longer fight head-on with the horse fast armor and thick tartars, but choose to hide the war horses and set up ambushes along the way in advance, using the mountain advantage to find opportunities to sneak attack.

Not long after, several knights appeared on the mountain road, and when they saw that the trail they had followed had come to an end, they immediately stopped and looked around, and talked in words that the harrier did not understand.

The harrier slowly moved forward and picked up the riding bow that had been set aside.

"Hook!" A long partridge voice swirled and turned, and countless small arrows were shot at the same time in all directions, and the arrows went in a tricky and fierce direction, not to shoot people but to hurt horses.

No matter how well-trained your war horse is, it can't erase its survival instinct after all.

In response to the sudden cold arrows, several Tartar riders subconsciously raised their swords to parry, but they seemed not in a hurry, but the mounts under them were frightened.

One of them was hit with several arrows in the buttocks, pouting and jumping up and down, and the Tartar on horseback was thrown to the ground unsteadily, and his vertebrae were immediately broken, and he was no longer able to move.

The harrier didn't care about the outcome of the battle at all, and left after the three arrows he had prepared.

At the same time, there are figures passing through the mountains from time to time, bringing bursts of branches and leaves to shake, and birds chirping one after another.

After the night did not disappear without a trace, Wu Sangui led most of the troops to rush here, and after asking about the situation, he ordered someone to take the seriously injured sentry to the rear for treatment, and he took his son-in-law Xia Guoxiang to climb the nearest hillside to investigate.

Grabbing a handful of moist soil and sniffing it, Xia Guoxiang said angrily: "Uncle Yue, it's human urine, depending on the situation, I haven't gone far, can I chase it?"

"This group of people came prepared, and it was difficult to catch them." When Wu Sangui spoke, he looked at the surrounding mountains, with the word worry on his face.

The elite of the Guanning army, which rode more and walked less, had no advantage at all in this vast mountainous area, and in the future it was just a foot soldier on horseback, which was not a good thing for Wu Sangui, who was outside the guest army.

"Unexpectedly, the Ming army still has such elite scouts in Shanxi, and our opponent is afraid that it is not simple."

"What Uncle Yue said is extremely true, the enemy's movements are very little known to our army, and now the location is inconvenient, so we should be cautious." Xia Guoxiang nodded in agreement.

Among his three sons-in-law, Xia Guoxiang, who is both civil and military, is most valued by Wu Sangui, who is often cultivated by his side, and listens to his scheming words, which is quite his true biography, and he feels very relieved.

"Let Ma Bao take a group of people up the mountain, since there are no horses on the other side, we don't need them either."

"Yes."

.....

The epidemic spread in the camp, but the villagers in Duanjiazhuang were not affected because they had no contact with the sick people, and the masks, isolation and other measures came in time.

Under the rush of work day and night, the abrupt bunker rose from the flat ground and began to take shape. In Chongzhen's design, the wall on the front is required to be as strong as possible, so Duan Xiaogang ignored the cumbersomeness, and built a layer of green bricks and a layer of triple soil with a thickness of six layers.

The soldiers pushed the artillery into the fort one after another, and the reserved cannon hole could just stick out the captured Hongyi cannon barrel, which was entirely due to Chongzhen's memorization of various data.

Duan Xiaojun, who had nothing to do, secretly spat yellow phlegm on the wall of the bunker when others were not paying attention, and Duan Xiaogang's complacent ambition recently made him extremely red.

It's just a skill of peeing and mud, but now it's lucky, and what is it called by the emperor.... What kind of engineer, not to mention the fact that he received a lot of bounty on a dog day, even Xiaocui began to revolve around him! Brother Xiaogang is long and Brother Xiaogang is short all day long, and when he thinks of his sweetheart Xiaocui, Duan Xiaojun's heart is sour.

"I don't believe it, why don't we play with mud?" Duan Xiaojun said in a low voice, sitting cross-legged on the ground and thinking about countermeasures, how could he cover Duan Xiaogang's limelight?

Due to the convergence of the follow-up troops, the original military camp was not enough to accommodate all the soldiers, and as soon as Tang Tongfu arrived, he was sent by Chongzhen to command the expansion of the camp.

It seems that such a trivial matter should be left to the people below to do, but Tang Tong doesn't think so, regardless of the fatigue of the journey, he has to keep an eye on it personally, and he will never allow the slightest mistake.

Under the pressure of the war situation in Hebei, Chongzhen finally cleared out all the sick and suspected sick people in the people's husband, and completely blocked the source of infection.

For this reason, he deliberately took the lead in promulgating the 10 anti-epidemic measures in the army, and in addition to the various countermeasures against the epidemic, the rules prohibiting the drinking of raw water and dirty water were established in the form of military law.

.......

Wuchang Mansion is located in Huguang, leading seven counties of a state, and the people of Wufu are abundant.

Ningnan Bozuo Liangyu guarded here, and the number of available troops in his hands was about 40,000.

Like most people, after receiving the news of the fall of the capital and the death of Emperor Chongzhen, Zuo Liangyu chose not to move.

After receiving the news of Li Zicheng's defeat at Shanhaiguan, Zuo Liangyu made a decisive attack and took Jingzhou, De'an, and Chengtian into his pocket.

King Fu ascended the throne, and naturally he would not forget this general who led the troops outside, Jin Zuo Liangyu was the marquis, and his son was named Jinyi Wei Zheng Qianhu.

Nanjing affairs, Zuo Liangyu heard about it but was indifferent.

It is enough for him to introduce a martial artist to Wuchang, as for which prince will succeed him, it is a matter for the old Zhu family and the literati, and he neither cares nor wants to get involved.

Zuo Liangyu was recommended by Hou Sui as an official, and Hou Sui was a member of the Donglin Party, and this relationship was extremely dangerous in Ma Shiying's eyes.

Ma Shiying immediately persuaded Emperor Hongguang to send people to build the Trigger City, which was ostensibly used for defense on the Western Front, but secretly it was nothing more than to prevent Zuo Liangyu and the Donglin Party from resurrecting.

For Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and the four towns of Jiangbei Caobao, which have been arrogant and domineering recently, Zuo Liangyu did have the idea of Qingjun's side, but the timing was not good at the moment, and this thought disappeared in a flash.

Today, when he heard that the team of the imperial court had arrived, Zuo Liangyu took his eldest son Zuo Mengeng to go early, and he didn't have too much of this kind of thing.

"The Cabinet Department? Why did you come here? Seeing Shi Kefa standing at the head of the team, Zuo Liangyu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, this is too abrupt.

Shi Kefa, who was thin and thin, had a dusty face on his face, and he wanted to speak again and again.
