"Brothers, we're here after crossing that hill, let's go to the other side of the river for breakfast." Hei Yougong encouraged the rebel brothers while walking.

As he walked, he heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the earthen ridge in front of him, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the two soldiers jumping off their horses and stumbling towards him, and he looked at their embarrassed appearance, and immediately asked, "How is it?" ”

"Master Hei, we have been ambushed by the enemy by the river, and they are all dead!" The two young soldiers turned their faces away and began to sob.

"Son of a bitch! The one who dares to ambush Lao Tzu. Gong roared angrily, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched. I only heard the sound of "brushing", pulled out the sword, and shouted "Get on the horse." A large group of personal soldiers flew on his horse with him, and all the horsemen and thousands of infantry followed the meritorious ones and rushed towards the mound.

After a while, I got up to work and came to the river. I saw a few enemy flags planted in the forest opposite, but there was no one. The dog and several of his own soldiers lay in a pool of blood, motionless. Yougong hurriedly dismounted, ran to the dog's side in three steps and two steps, picked up his body that had not yet stiffened, and choked up and shouted, "Dog, dog." But the dog could no longer hear his beloved black master calling to him.

At this time, Hei Yougong was extremely angry in his heart, "Get on the horse," he shouted, "The cavalry follow me, and the infantry will camp here!" He looked at the other leader of the pro-soldiers, "You stay." After speaking, he glanced at the dogs and them, and then ran in the direction of Wollongong like a whirlwind. After traveling for about two or three miles, I suddenly found that there was a group of people and horses in the dense forest in front of me, about one or two hundred people, lying and sitting, resting and playing there. But at this time, the other party's sentry also instantly discovered Yougong and others, and only listened to the whistle. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers and colonels who followed him were full of anger, and in an instant, they shouted for murder and rushed directly towards the enemy.

In the panic, before the enemy had time to get on the horse, most of them had been wiped out by the meritorious people who cut melons and vegetables, and the small half panicked and fled frantically, only hating his father and mother for giving him two legs. They continued to wield their swords and slash, and in less than a meal, the small force had been wiped out.

At this time, Yougong ordered loudly: "See if there is any alive to catch one!" Soon a soldier pulled over the enemy soldier who looked like a small colonel, and blood was still bubbling from his arms and legs.

"The general spares his life, don't kill the villain!" The enemy soldiers knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Let me ask you, where are you waiting for? Truthfully invite to spare your life!"

"We are the patrol soldiers under the White Governor of Shaanxi." The creep replied.

"Where are you White Governors?" Merit asked.

"Governor Bai and Wang Yizheng are now stationed outside Xiangyang City, with a total of 15,000 men and horses, and the regent Dolgon personally sits in Xiangyang Mansion." The little school answered honestly.

"How many men are there in Dolgon?" Merit asked again.

"This... I don't know this small, small one. The colonel replied again.

"Take it down!" Merit said.

Seeing that there was murder in the eyes of the black meritorious, the soldiers next to him dragged the little colonel to the ridge next to him, and a sword of 'poof' killed him.

"Clean up the battlefield immediately and return to Xihe." Yougong waved his hand and rode his horse back the same way, and sent a personal soldier to explore the horse and return to the palace to know, 'Wollongong is afraid that there are ambush soldiers, and they are now stationed along the Xishan West River, and Bai Rumei, the governor of Shaanxi, is afraid that there are signs of westward expansion. ’

……

At the end of the day, in the Xingshan Village, three cannons sounded, the drums were beaten, and the generals entered the account and saluted Li Laiheng in turn. At this time, although there were many people inside and outside the tent, they were silent, and Li Laiheng's usually amiable attitude became very majestic at this moment, making the generals even more breathless and afraid to look up.

"Generals, in the past year, our friendly forces have been wiped out one after another, Hu Lu is very arrogant, and now only the remnants of the "Eight Kings" of Sichuan (that is, Zhang Xianzhong, the leader of the rebel army in the late Ming Dynasty) and the rest of Guangxi are blocking Yinxi, and the rest of Li Dingguo is still resisting a little. We can't let the Hu people continue like this, we must take a heavy break from the Hu people's spirit!" After a pause, he glanced at the generals, and then said, "We need to move quickly in this battle, so as to retreat!" After discussing with Liu Shun and other generals of the Chinese army, various arrangements have been decided. The generals scattered their tents and went back to the camp to rest, just waiting to fight.

……

After dealing with the Tang Bao, Song Qingping's personal soldiers came in to report that Mrs. Zhenyi had arrived. Qingping hurriedly got up to greet her and let her go inside.

"Madame is coming, and if you have something to do, just tell me." Qingping said respectfully.

"Qingping, Hongxia, how do you arrange it?" Mrs. Gao said.

"It's all up to Madame," Qingping replied respectfully.

"Is it possible to come to Fengying?" Mrs. Gao asked.

"I heard Hongxia's personal soldiers say that this time Hongxia and they came from Chongqing, Sichuan, and are now stationed in the opposite mountain west of the gorge, and there are a lot of troops! If Hongxia goes up the mountain, I am afraid that this new force will have no leader, and I will foolishly think that it is ......" Qingping said slowly:

"It's better to defend the mountain for the time being, and you can also protect Xiling Ferry and Xiakou Town."

When Mrs. Gao heard this, she knew that Song Qingping wanted to use Hongxia as a pioneer, but she had nothing to refute, so she had to sigh and say, "You have to ensure Hongxia's safety!"

"Don't worry, this lady, I have sent someone to inform Gui Huaiyuan of them." Qingping replied.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gao asked again: "Laiheng, where did Laiheng go?"

"I went to Xingshan Dazhai," Qingping said.

"What's wrong with Xingshan?" Mrs. Gao asked.

"The master surrendered to the Qing soldiers." Qingping didn't hide it.

"Alas, if this is the case, it is not as expected by the first emperor!" Mrs. Gao sighed deeply, and silently left the Guogong Mansion with Qiao'er.

……

In Baiyang Dazhai, there are constantly teams of soldiers patrolling. Since the beginning of yesterday's change, the sound of horses' hooves has not stopped, whistle horses and Tang Bao passed one after another, groups of people and horses in and out of Dazhai, some to Xingshan, some to Huangliang Town. In the direction of Xingshan, the destination is very clear, Baicheng Village and Changping Village. Baichengzhai is located more than ten miles east of Xingshan, while Changping is located in the southeast of Wanchao Mountain, closer to Dangyang. Several team leaders were Li Shouyu and veteran Wang Guangsheng went to Changping Village, and General Ruan Longde went to Baicheng Village.

The geographical location of this Baiyang Village is also very important, and it is the traffic throat of the thirteen families in Kuidong. Dazhai is divided into five gates and a side gate, respectively can lead to Maolu Mountain Village, Xingshan Village, Huangliang, Xiakou, Nanyang and Gufu and other villages, and the side gate is directly to Nanyang Town, only allow one person to ride through, thorny bushes, is located in the mountains and mountains of an unknown mountain road.

At this moment, the general guarding the village is Yuan Chongli, the son of Yuan Zongdi, the fierce general under the command of King Chuang, "Mianhou", Yuan Chongli, this son is about two early teens, very brave, good at making double whips, and even has the style of a father, and is currently the commander of the loyal battalion, one of Li Laiheng's several powerful generals.

At three o'clock, another large group of people entered Baiyang Village from the West Gate, and the people who were the leaders were Niu Xi and Wu Yingzhao, the commanders of the Chinese military camp who returned from the Gufu Gorge, and the two of them greeted Yuan Chongli who was standing on the side of the road warmly, "Brother Yuan, come back and drink with you, don't get drunk and have no home!" Niu Xi said.

Yuan Chongli looked at the two with a smile, beckoned, and said, "Be careful all the way!" Immediately watched the brigade leave.

……

However, it was said that Li Laiheng was looking in the direction of Baiyang Village with several pro-soldiers and generals, and when he saw that the time was close to noon, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and he lowered his head and paced back and forth, only to hear the pro-soldiers shouting:

"It's coming, it's coming, General Niu has arrived."

Li Laiheng looked at the sudden appearance of many flags and people on the hillside three or four miles away in the distance, and a big "cow" word on the first banner, he couldn't help but say, "Good boy, it's on time!" Praise exports.

Niu Xi and the others arrived in front of Lai Heng and shouted, "I've seen the general." Lai Heng saw that everyone looked tired. He immediately ordered his soldiers to prepare a meal, arranged for a nest to rest, and muttered a few words to a soldier, who immediately rode away. Then he said to Niu Xi:

"Hurry up and rest, the troops will have dinner at the end of the application, prepare dry food for each of them, and stand by for departure at the time of the unitary." After Lai Heng finished speaking, he walked towards the Chinese army, and he himself had to squint for a while. If you have enough spirits, you can kill Hu Lu and the master righteousness!

At the beginning of Shen Chu, Lai Heng called Zhang Xiaobao.

"Xiaobao, are you ready to stop your crutch gun (repeating arquebus with a crank)?"

"General Hui, five hundred soldiers of the firearms battalion are ready, but five hundred cavalry are needed."

Lai Heng groaned, nodded and said, "This is no problem, and then ask Wu Ying to lead five hundred cavalry to guard the firearms battalion!" As he spoke, he looked at the detachments of infantry outside the tent and walked in the direction of Wanchao Mountain. He knew that these infantry were used to reinforce the pass on the northern slope of Wanchao Mountain, because he gave a strict order: the pass must be defended to the death, and those who violate the order will be beheaded. So he instructed Xiaobao again: "Take care of yourself!" I thought that tonight's battle must be fierce, but this battle had to be fought again. The Qing soldiers are too arrogant. He thought about today's plan again and again, and whether he could retreat after cleaning up the master righteousness and severely damaging the Qing army was the most important thing. He looked at the sky again, and the weather was fine.

At dusk, the caravan set out, and everyone was well fed and light-dressed, and in good spirits. Only the sound of the horse's hooves echoed in the empty mountains and forests, startling flocks of mountain birds, and the oolong foal seemed to understand the owner's mind, and tried not to make a loud noise. Under the cover of night, the troops quickly assembled in the direction of Dangyang.

As the time approached, the men and horses lined up in two ways, facing the Qing soldiers, and the soldiers slowly drew their steel knives, which had already been sharpened, and stared at the enemy camp. Suddenly, several fires burned in the Qing military camp. With the shout of "on fire, on fire", a trumpet sounded, the war drums thundered, the sword in Lai Heng's hand swung forward, and everyone rushed forward, accompanied by the overwhelming shouts of killing, shattering the enemy's courage. Before the Qing army could recover from its sleep, it had already become a ghost under the sword. "General Jingxi" Mulima did not wake up from a hangover, but fortunately escaped by several generals who had been accustomed to fighting for a long time. But the master Yi was not so lucky, because he met the killer swordsman Yitian Zhongshun in the Heng army.

The cavalry of the righteous army rushed all the way to kill, and the Qing soldiers all fled, at this time Zhongshun met Lai Heng on the way, and Lai Heng ordered Ming Jin. Unexpectedly, the two town pacesetters and horses in Yang City rushed out, packed up the defeated and remnant military horses, and came together to chase the righteous army. Due to the overnight attack, the rebels had to fight and retreat.

Under the moonlight, the Qing soldiers all over the mountains pressed forward step by step under the cover of artillery fire. At this critical moment, several cannon shots suddenly came from the northern foot of Huanglong Mountain, and they immediately shouted to kill the heavens. Lai Heng knew in his heart that it must be Pi Xingyong's 2,000 cavalry to kill him! He immediately called the soldiers of the firearms battalion to step forward, and they should follow the front to escort them, and Lai Heng shouted "kill!" The first to turn around and wave his sword and rush into the enemy's army, slashing left and stabbing right, and he was invincible, and at this time, the southern foot of Huanglong Mountain was also full of cannons, and it turned out that it was Li Shouyu, the guard general of Changping, and others who launched an attack on the Qing soldiers. For a time, the Qing army did not know how many enemies were killed, so they had to mingjin. Prince Azig personally led his troops out of the city to meet them, and only then did he contain the defeat slightly.
