Chapter 24: The Bloody Battle in Kunming (6)
After the army entered Kunming City from the east gate, Li An quickly pacified the north gate and the west gate with 20,000 soldiers and horses. There was some trouble when pacifying the south gate, which was garrisoned by 3,000 Guanning iron cavalry.
The Guan Ning army of the small department was stationed at the city gate, and Li An led the troops to take it quickly. Most of the Guanning army was led by Wu Anzhi and firmly guarded the wall of the south gate. Li An sent people to attack several times from the horse road to the city, but they all ended in failure.
After a long time of fruitless attack, Li Anxin's anger gradually became a little bigger. An army built by Daming with a lot of money, millions of taels of Liao Xiang every year is smashed, but this group of white-eyed wolves who eat inside and outside are raised.
Now, Kunming City has been taken, but this part of the Guanning Iron Cavalry is still resisting. Li An also showed no mercy, and ordered his subordinates to seal the road to the city with fire oil. The archers were divided into two groups, one outside the city and the other inside the city, and shot arrows at the head of the city. The gunners also divided into two groups and threw fire canisters at the head of the city.
Suddenly, arrows rained down on the city's head, fires flared up, and Guan Ning's army was beaten and scurried. Seeing that the timing was almost the same, Li An stopped his attack and personally led the elite to kill the city.
"Kill, the soldiers will rush with me."
Li An rushed to the city with a steel gun in hand, and at this time the Guan Ning army was in chaos. Li An killed it like a wolf into a flock of sheep, stabbing out one shot after another, constantly harvesting the lives of Guan Ningjun.
But soon, the Guan Ning army stopped the chaos and spontaneously organized to fight the Ming army, Li An couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the Guan Ning army deserved to be the world's famous elite.
Just as Li An lamented that the Guan Ning Army was well-trained, a spear suddenly stabbed obliquely from the side. Li An hurriedly dodged, but he was still a step slower, and was stabbed in the left arm by the spear.
"Haha, Li Dingguo is your death today."
Wu Anzhi, who was sneaking up on the side, saw that this shot stabbed Li An's arm and shouted proudly.
In line with the principle of taking advantage of your illness to kill you, Wu Anzhi's "brush" was stabbed out with three shots.
At this time, Li An, who was stabbed in his left arm, forcibly raised the starting steel gun to block the three shots stabbed by Wu Anzhi. Ang Lee's guards were left under the city walls, and the Ming and Qing dynasties were in a scuffle, so that no one noticed Ang Lee for a while.
Wu Anzhi saw that Li An still had the strength to parry himself, so he hurriedly accelerated the offensive, and each shot became faster and faster. After more than ten rounds, due to a serious injury to his left arm, Li Ang gradually lost his legs.
Seeing that Wu An's gun was about to stab Li An in the chest.
At this critical juncture.
"Ho!" There was a loud roar from the side, Li Lu held a big knife and opened a spear with great speed, and several soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to support the crumbling Li An and quickly evacuated the battlefield.
After Li Lu opened Wu An with a knife, he quickly stepped forward and slashed straight down, and Wu An hurriedly raised his gun to resist. The two exchanged guns, and after more than 20 rounds, Li Lu seized the opportunity to shout and split Wu Anzhi in half with a knife.
At this time, with the continuous influx of Ming troops on the battlefield, the Guanning army was defeated and retreated.
The more than 700 Guan Ning soldiers who were forced into a corner saw that the general trend had gone, and they all laid down their weapons and surrendered to the Ming army.
Li An, who was injured, was helped down by several soldiers, and Li Sixing hurriedly shouted: "Quick, go and call Dr. Zhao over." ”
After a while, Zhao Yulin hurried over and treated Li An's wound urgently. Then he prescribed a prescription and asked Li Sixing to quickly take the prescription to grab the medicine.
When Li Sixing heard this, he hurriedly went to find the pharmacy with people. After searching for a while, I finally found a pharmacy with a locked door on a street.
Li Sixing stepped forward and knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no reaction in the pharmacy. Just as he was about to have someone kick open the pharmacy, the door of the pharmacy slowly opened, and the shopkeeper walked out tremblingly.
As soon as the shopkeeper of the pharmacy came out, he knelt down with a thud and shouted: "The general spares his life, the general spares his life, and the grass people and their families are all in their own right." Li Sixing didn't have the kung fu to talk nonsense with the pharmacy boss at this time, and directly took out the pharmacy and put the pharmacy shopkeeper in to quickly grab the medicine.
The shopkeeper of the pharmacy breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it turned out that he was looking for his own medicine. He didn't dare to delay, so he hurried into the store with the pharmacy to grab the medicine according to the prescription.
After a while, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy took out the two packets of medicine and said to Li Sixing: "General, this red paper bag is a medicinal powder, and the yellow paper bag is a medicinal herb, you have put it away." ”
Li Sixing nodded when he heard this, stepped forward to take two packets of medicine, and then took out a silver ingot from his arms and threw it to the boss.
The shopkeeper hurriedly took the silver, took it in his hand and saw that there were at least about 5 taels. hurriedly spoke: "General, there are too many, one or two is enough." ”
"I've got the rest of the rewards." Li Sixing said that he didn't wait for the pharmacy owner to react, and quickly left with his subordinates.
Seeing Li Sixing leaving, the shopkeeper hurriedly returned to the pharmacy and locked the door of the pharmacy tightly. After returning to the inner room, he sighed to his wife: "Xiulian, do you know who was just now?" ”
"Who?"
"Master of the Great Ming Dynasty!"
"Isn't Da Ming gone? Are you dazzled by the black light?"
"It's gone...... Woo woo woo" said the pharmacy shopkeeper whimpered, he didn't know that Da Ming was gone. In the past, he always felt that it was the same with or without Daming, no matter who sat in the world, his life was still the same.
But since the Tartars came, everything has changed. His original partner was raped, his eldest son was killed, and he and his younger son escaped by hiding in a well.
Immediately after that, the whole city was forced to shave their hair and make it easy to wear. From now on, he not only has to live with a pig's tail, but also has to see the flag man kneel and call himself a slave.
The few acres of land that the family had outside the city were also forcibly occupied by the banner people, and they could only rely on this pharmacy in the city to survive. But who knew that every time the Qing soldiers and banner people came to see a doctor, not only did they not give a penny, but they also extorted money and even teased their own continuation when they left.
One thing made him understand that the sky had completely changed, and the world belonged to the banner people, not the Han people.
At this time, he remembered that Da Ming was coming, and he thought all day long that Da Ming could fight back and drive the Tartars back to the outside of the gate.
"The remnants are in tears, and the king is looking south for another year." He never saw the shadow of the king.
"That's right, I recognize it, they don't have braids." The shopkeeper stopped whimpering and said earnestly to his continuation.
On Li An's side, Zhao Yulin had already applied the medicinal powder to Li An's wound. Then Zhao Yulin said to Li Sixing: "General Li, King Jin needs a room to recuperate now. ”
When Li Sixing heard this, he immediately sent someone to find the courtyard of a large family nearby, and sent his own soldiers to call the door.
The soldiers went over and slapped on the mahogany gate and shouted, "Open the door, open the door." ”
The door soon opened a crack, and a head poked out and asked cautiously, "General, I don't know why I knocked on the door late at night?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, my king is injured and needs to use his room to recuperate. You quickly go and ask your master to arrange it. ”
The housekeeper didn't dare to slack off after hearing this, and hurried to the hall to report the matter to the head of the house.
"Oh? I'll go out and have a look, and you go and clean up the best room first. Jiang He commanded.
Then Jiang He hurried out of the house with a few subordinates.
