Chapter 125: How is it possible?
On the peak on the left side of the Yaoshan Mountain Road, the integrity officer Li Jiwen was looking nervously at the bottom of the mountain, and suddenly noticed that the roar of birds and the looming sound of fighting over there had gradually subsided, and his face suddenly showed a complex expression of joy and fear.
The commander on the side, Hu Zongming, also had a complicated expression, and Zhengsheng was talking to Tang Jingming, the guard of the Jiaozhou Thousand Households, and Ji Xianhai, the guard of the Middle Thousand Households, for a while, and then they all looked at Li Jiwen.
"Your Excellency?"
Hu Zongming asked tentatively: "My lord, the situation on the side of Yaoshan Mountain Road is unknown, do you need to gather a large army with subordinates, let's gather soldiers and horses to go over and have a look?" ”
"Look what! Liu Baihu is leading his troops to block most of the Qing army, what are you going to see! ”
Li Jiwen glared at Hu Zongming angrily, the night he sent out before was not received and now he is gone, either he ran away halfway, or he was killed by the Qing army. The Qing army on the Yaoshan Mountain Road was more than 100 people, but how many were actually there? I'm afraid only know!
At this time, Li Jiwen only wanted to gather the crowd to stay here, and wait until the situation was really clear, and then make a decision. If Liu Yan is really defeated by the Qing army, Li Jiwen is not willing to stay here, and the soldiers and horses will have to protect him and flee back.
So Li Jiwen calmed down and said to Hu Zongming, Tang Jingming, and Ji Xianhai: "Look around, this is a place where soldiers must fight, and there is no room for loss!" The three of them should work hard a little more, and immediately lead their troops and horses to guard everywhere to prevent the Qing army from attacking! ”
"In addition, all the departments must be sent out if they do not collect at night, and people must be sent to investigate the mountain road of Yaoshan Mountain and the peaks opposite
Message, understand? ”
The three of them looked at each other, this is a place where soldiers must fight?
However, the three of them were all human spirits, so they naturally understood Li Jiwen's words, and they all hugged their fists to receive their orders, and each of them reorganized their troops and horses.
Li Jiwen saw that Hu Zongming, Tang Jingming, and Ji Xianhai were very interested, so he looked at the direction of Yaoshan Mountain Road, and then looked at the opposite right peak, and said secretly in his heart: "Perhaps, Zhang Hailin led his troops to succeed?" If that's the case, this person is really a fierce general, and I really want to use it again in the future. ”
Just when Li Jiwen was guessing wildly, not knowing whether Liu Yan's troops were defeated by the Qing soldiers, or whether Liu Yan led his troops to repel the Qing soldiers, and his heart was stale, Zhang Hailin was also entangled.
"We can't wait any longer!"
Zhang Hailin was naturally not as calm as Li Jiwen, and at this time, there was no movement on the side of Yaoshan Mountain Road, and Zhang Hailin became worried. After all, Liu Yan is his subordinate, and if he wins the battle and shares the profits, if he loses, he will have to eat melons and fish with him, and he will have no chance to enter the Lingshan Acropolis in the future.
So Zhang Hailin said to Wang Weizhen, Jia Hongyu, Song Gongming, Dai Jingbin and others: "All departments immediately assemble and follow me in the direction of Yaoshan Mountain Road!" ”
Everyone was embarrassed, Wang Weizhen and Jia Hongyu could still remain silent, but Song Gongming and Dai Jingbin were different, the two of them stood up to dissuade them, they didn't want to lead their troops over at all, they just wanted to withdraw from here at any time.
But Zhang Hailin has already regretted it, if he could lead his troops to attack just now, maybe the battle would have ended at this time, and he would really be able to defeat the Qing army with Liu Yan, but now
It's too late for anything.
"The officer asked you to gather troops and horses, don't you understand? Do you want the official to do it again! ”
Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to mobilize their own troops and horses, but the speed at which the troops and horses were assembled was extremely slow.
Under Zhang Hailin's repeated urging, Wang Weizhen, Jia Hongyu, Song Gongming, Dai Jingbin and other talents have assembled soldiers and horses one after another, and more than 1,000 soldiers and horses from the Qianhu Institute in front of Xiahe Village were divided into several departments and assembled in the mountains and forests.
Zhang Hailin immediately ordered to set off, and the army marched slowly in the direction of the Yaoshan Mountain Road, and the original formation was straightened out, but it didn't take long for it to become crooked because of the terrain and trees, and finally most of the soldiers and horses didn't even have a basic formation, and more than 1,000 people were completely herding sheep in the mountains and forests."
At this time, Zhang Hailin was anxious, and he couldn't care about so much, and he didn't even order to take a step ahead at night and go to the front to investigate the situation, but he kept urging all departments to speed up and march towards the Yaoshan Mountain Road.
Suddenly, there was a commotion among the soldiers and horses in front, and then Zhang Hailin saw many soldiers turning around and running back, and many soldiers shouted loudly in horror: "Qing army!" It's the horse team of the Qing army, and the Qing army is here! ”
At this moment, more than 1,000 soldiers and horses in front of Xiahe Village suddenly exploded, and almost all the soldiers began to run backwards, and the mountains and forests were suddenly in chaos.
Under the protection of Jia Hongyu and more than 100 family members, Wang Weizhen ran directly towards the direction of the mountain peak, everyone threw away all the baggage, and the dun army that came with him couldn't take care of it, and now there is a Qing army behind him, who will take care of whom?
surname
Gongming ran faster, he originally brought three hundred soldiers and horses, including fifty family members, these people are all the family funds accumulated by the Song family in the ancient town for many years, and they also came in handy at this time.
I saw three hundred soldiers and horses escorting Song Gongming to turn around and run, anyone in front of him, whether it was an ordinary dun army, or other part of the officers, would all be slaughtered, these three hundred soldiers and horses directly used knives and guns to open a passage in the crowd, escorting Song Gongming into the deep mountains, and soon disappeared.
As for Dai Jingbin, although he wanted to escape for his life at this time, the one hundred and fifty families directly under his hands were all Zhang Hailin's henchmen, and Dai Jingbin couldn't take these families away even if he wanted to run.
So Dai Jingbin had no choice but to lead his troops to escort Zhang Hailin to retreat quickly, but at this time, the army of thousands of people was completely chaotic, and even the Qing army iron cavalry could be seen in the rear.
Dai Jingbin glanced back, and saw dozens of Qing army iron cavalry driving and killing the Ming soldiers behind, and the arrogant laughter and vulgar nonsense even reached Dai Jingbin's ears, knowing how many Qing army iron cavalry were killing behind.
"Damn Liu Yan, isn't he a fierce general? Doesn't he have an army of thousands? Why can't you stop the Qing army! ”
Dai Jingbin shouted and scolded while protecting Zhang Hailin to escape, but at this time, Zhang Hailin was still thinking about his future, and he didn't believe that Liu Yan's troops were defeated like this, so he roared loudly, and even wanted to restrain the rout of the army, and held on the spot and waited for Liu Yan to lead his troops to come.
"Defend on the spot! Defend on the spot! When Liu Baihu's elite Wangjiazhuang arrives, under the internal and external attacks, this battle can be turned into defeat
Victory! ”
But Zhang Hailin's roar had no effect, and countless Ming troops passed by Zhang Hailin's side in defeat, but no one stopped, everyone was struggling to run for their lives, and they didn't pay attention to Zhang Hailin at all.
"Your Excellency!"
Dai Jingbin looked back at the Qing army's iron cavalry that was getting closer and closer, and suddenly became anxious, and shouted at Zhang Hailin: "My lord will go first, and my subordinates will lead my troops to block here!" ”
Over, Dai Jingbin didn't care whether Zhang Hailin agreed or not, and said to the one hundred and fifty families around: "Ten of you escort the adults and leave quickly, and the rest will be killed by me!" ”
The ten family members dragged Zhang Hailin to continue to flee for his life, Zhang Hailin was moved in his heart, what else did he want, but he was taken away by all the family members, and he didn't have time for anything.
Dai Jingbin led the remaining 140 Jiading to turn around and run for a while, and then with an order, he turned around and ran to the left.
"My lord, the Qing army is riding over there, you are wrong!"
The captain of the family grabbed Dai Jingbin and said loudly, but he didn't want Dai Jingbin to cut him directly with a knife, and the surrounding family members were dumbfounded, and they all drew their knives to look at Dai Jingbin, but some family members reacted and surrounded Dai Jingbin one after another, protecting Dai Jingbin.
I saw Dai Jingbin say coldly: "You want to kill the Qing soldiers? The Qing soldiers are over there, just go by yourself, don't bother us if you want to die! ”
When those family members heard this, they completely understood, and most of them put down their refining guns and lowered their heads one after another.
Only three family members glared at Dai Jingbin angrily, scolded a few words, and then really rushed towards the Qing army's iron cavalry.
"Okay, those who want to die are gone, and those who want to live are with me
Walk! ”
Dai Jingbin then ran in the other direction, and the rest of the family members followed, directly turning into a rout, fleeing for their lives in the mountains and forests, and soon disappeared.
"Haha!"
At this time, the Qing army's iron cavalry that attacked the Qianhu army in front of Xiahezhai was the Qing army Zhuanda who was defeated by Liu Yan's troops, and his troops were only more than 30 cavalrymen, and even half of them were in armor.
But even so, these more than 30 people still crushed the army of 1,000 people in front of Xiahe Village.
Na Zhuanda laughed insolently while slashing and killing the fleeing Ming soldiers, and saw three Ming soldiers rushing up with a roar, which were the three family members.
Seeing this, Zhuanda immediately became angry: "Where are the Ming troops who are not afraid of death? ”
I saw Zhuanda riding a horse with a gun, directly stabbing a family member to death, and then riding a horse into a family member. The remaining family member was holding a spear and wanted to pick out Zhuanda down, but he was flashed by the Qing army's Zhuanda horse, and the only remaining family member was surprised by his riding skills.
"Damn it!"
Suddenly, two Qing soldiers rode horses to kill, and the two knives were cut down, and the family fell unwillingly, and his head was in a different place.
"Rush me! Kill me! ”
Zhuan Da roared loudly, led more than 30 cavalry to form a long line, swept through the mountains and forests, and the Ming soldiers along the way were ruthlessly slaughtered, and they could not organize an effective counterattack at all.
"That's the general of the Ming army!"
The Qing army saw Zhang Hailin who was fleeing for his life at a glance, and chased after him with three Qing army vests, laughing wildly and shooting two family members.
The three Qing army vests are also brave and only care about fleeing for their lives
Ding was not an opponent at all, and in the blink of an eye, the remaining eight family members were all killed, leaving only Zhang Hailin, who had a pale face.
"Ahh
At this time, Zhang Hailin couldn't have imagined why his thousand-strong army would suddenly rout, and he would die here.
"I am the former ...... of Xiahe Village"
So the impulse to live instantly matched only Zhang Hailin's mind, and the word surrender also emerged, Zhang Hailin immediately dropped his saber and shouted at the Qing army.
But Zhuan Da, who had already killed the red eye, didn't give Zhang Hailin a chance at all, rode a horse to Zhang Hailin's side, and stabbed him to death without waiting for Zhang Hailin to finish.
Until he died, Zhang Hailin couldn't believe that he would die in this mountain forest
