Chapter 199: Zhu Chunchen's nephew

The leader of this scout is called Juan.

In other words, this Zhu An still has something to do with Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo.

He is Zhu Chunchen's distant nephew, and although he is a little far apart, he is also a little related.

Since Zhu Chunchen sent people to the north to inquire about the news, he naturally had to send some more powerful and loyal people over, and he really didn't trust other people.

Zhu An has been exploring from the south to the north, and he has not found any trace of Jiannu, and unconsciously found that he has come to a place not far from this Xifeng Pass.

He was a little hesitant in his heart, could it be that the fact that Jiannu had already entered the customs was fake?

Could it be that all this was a forgery from his uncle?

What kind of uncle, in fact, he has never seen Zhu Chunchen, the so-called uncle, just because the two families are too far away.

Normally, when the elders of the family went to visit Zhu Chunchen, they didn't even bring Zhu An, so he only met Zhu Chunchen twice now, and he didn't even say a word, because it was too far away.

If Zhu An had to say that the two parties were relatives, it would be considered a relative, at least Zhu Chunchen had not denied it.

After all, if he is not a relative, this Zhu An will not agree.

Of course, Zhu Chunchen has heard that there is such a person, but with Zhu An's status, it is impossible for Zhu Chunchen to inform him of any inside information when he sets off, so that he is not defeated or retreating now.

They know the skills of this Jiannu people, and if the Jiannu finds them out, they won't even be able to run away.

Juan didn't want to die yet, but if he didn't go north, he wouldn't be able to complete the mission when he went back.

The remaining soldiers surrounded Zhu An and asked, "Baihu, what should we do now?" Do you continue to explore the Xifeng Pass, or do you want to run back quickly? ”

When Zhu An heard this, he was also very unhappy, "Run back? Now run back, then how do we go with Chengguo Bus, do you people want to lose your heads? ”

After finishing speaking, Zhu An sighed, "There is no way now, I can only cautiously continue to march towards Xifengkou." ”

He decided, as long as he glanced at the top of Xifeng Pass, and looked at the people in charge of guarding above, whether it was the Ming army or the people who built slaves, he would know the current situation.

At that time, if it is the Ming army, the people above will definitely not pose any threat to them, and he can also go to Xifengkou to inquire about the news. If the person above was Jiannu, they sneaked a glance and quickly ran away.

Zhu An thought about it and was still not at ease, and said to his subordinates, "You must be careful when you go with me to find out the news, if Jiannu finds out, we won't be able to escape, and if someone makes any noise at that time, causing us to be in danger, then no matter whether Jiannu slaughters you or not, I will slaughter you first." ”

When the subordinates heard Zhu An say this, they were also a little trembling.

This Zhu An usually relies on being a so-called distant relative of Cheng Guogong, and he has always been arrogant and domineering, and he scolds ordinary soldiers or beats them, and he looks like he is on top, so the soldiers are very afraid of him.

In fact, the soldiers also understood that Zhu An was a fart distant nephew, and he was recognized by the country.

But it doesn't affect it at all, Zhu An relies on this identity, although he doesn't have much ability, and he also mixes with the official position of a hundred households.

Zhu An led his subordinates to secretly march in the direction of Xifengkou, they had to be more careful along the way, they were afraid of exposing the whereabouts of their people.

But what they just didn't know was that the scouts of the Guards had already discovered them.

On a small hillside half a mile away from them, a group of guards, about two hundred men, was looking mockingly at the soldiers of the Beijing camp.

At this moment, the deputy company commander next to him came up and said to the company commander: "Company commander, seeing that this group of rabbit cubs is obviously intending, they will grope in the direction of Xifengkou like this, should we wait for them to advance a little further before taking them down, or will we rush up to take them down now?" ”

The company commander shook his head and said, "The guards who are active in this territory are not only us, and if it is a little later, Hu Laosan's side will have to find them." ”

"Your Majesty has passed on the order, now all the troops rushing over from the south are not trustworthy, they can all be taken as enemies, and they are all credits, Hu Laosan will not let go of such a good opportunity."

The deputy company commander heard this. He nodded, and he meant the same thing.

All the Guards soldiers loaded their muskets with gunpowder and cartridges, and then loaded their muzzles with bayonets.

The powder gun was also quite strenuous to reload on horseback, so they were generally only able to fire one round, and then used the breech as a spear.

Well...... It's a bit too much to say it's a spear, but if it's a short spear, it's definitely okay.

However, although they can only fire one bullet, with this weapon, they can also be said to have quite an advantage.

Soldiers on war horses galloped down the hillside, setting off a burst of echoes.

Although the soldiers of the Beijing camp had been stationed in the capital and had not fought any cavalry, as soon as they heard this sound, they also knew that the enemy had killed them.

Zhu An, who was the leader of the 100 households in Beijing at that time, heard this movement and trembled on the spot.

He was very sure in his heart that it was Jiannu who had killed him, if it wasn't for the Jiannu cavalry, how could there be such a big movement.

Zhu An hurriedly looked at the place where the smoke and dust were raised, but he saw an extremely terrifying scene, the person who killed him was not Jiannu, but their Ming soldiers.

But if you say that these armies are Ming troops, their uniforms are a little different from ordinary Ming troops.

They quickly remembered that the Ming army wearing such a uniform could only be the Guards.

As soon as Zhu An saw the Guards, his first reaction was why there were so many Guards here, didn't it mean that Jiannu had already killed them?

The second reaction is to run quickly.

Zhu An also knew that the file thing that his distant uncle did was no different from rebellion.

There are so many guards here, it is possible that His Majesty was not defeated, and then or rather, His Majesty was defeated, but fled back.

These people rebelled against Zhu Chunchen, and if they were caught by the guards, there would be absolutely no good end.

The soldiers behind him saw Zhu An running away, and they also ran along.

Although they didn't understand it, they met the Ming army, and everyone was said to be robes, so why did they run away?

But two legs, how can they run more than four legs, and soon Juan and they are already surrounded.

Juan's first reaction was that he would never let the Guards know what his origin was.

But Zhu An here didn't speak, and a test hundred households next to him stood up on the spot, pointed to Liu Shi, an officer of the Guards over there, and scolded: "What kind of dog are you, you dare to block the road here, aren't you afraid that Shangguan will blame you?" Do you know who we are? ”
