Chapter 1334 - Fun
The pursuers led by Lu Xiangsheng rushed to the edge of Jianchang.
When I looked up, I saw a prairie ahead.
This is nominally the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact it is the pasture of the Mongols, which Lu Xiangsheng is also very clear.
He frowned: "Dolgon's party seems to have entered the Jianchang Ranch. This is the territory of the Mongols, and if we want to hunt them down, we need to be mentally prepared to deal with the Mongols at all times. ”
In fact, Lu Xiangsheng did not see the Mongols as a great threat.
After he became the governor of Xuanda, he opened a horse market in Hukou, traded with the Mongols, and became friends with the leader of a Mongol tribe, Qitan. (Forgot friends read chapter 1135)
However, Lu Xiangsheng knew that Mongolia was not a country with tight centralized power, but was divided into various tribes, each of which had its own policies, and the relationship between them was not so great.
Although he made friends with Qitan, it didn't mean that the Mongolian tribes on Jianchang's side would be friends with him, and if they didn't do it, the two sides would have to fight again.
Just as he was thinking of this, he saw a huge cavalry unit appearing in front of him......
The dust and sand raised really scared Lu Xiangsheng.
Just as he was about to give the order to prepare to meet the enemy, he heard a familiar laughter: "Lord Lu, hello." ”
He looked forward, huh? It's actually his old friend begging for charcoal!
Lu Xiangsheng was surprised: "Begging for charcoal, aren't you in the grassland north of Xuanfu?" How did you get here? ”
Begging Tan smiled: "Because our Yuan Dynasty's Heavenly Khan Ezhe sent a letter to crusade against the Manchu Qing Dynasty and summoned all the Mongolian tribes to come over, so I have been active here recently, and I got the news yesterday that the Manchu general Dolgon ran over from here." Then I heard that Lord Lu would chase after him from here, so Zhebu, the representative of the Heavenly Khan, asked me to lead an army to help Lord Lu. ”
Lu Xiangsheng: "! ”
This really surprised him, where did this news come from? The news that I will march through here has spread so far that even Jeb, the leader of the Mongols, knows about it? Is the military situation so unclassified?
Begging Tan said: "Lord Lu, I brought a large number of horses, although the soldiers under your command are infantry, it is still no problem to ride horses, right?" ”
Lu Xiangsheng perked up: "This is no problem. ”
With a wave of his hand, a large group of Mongolian cavalry led the horses.
Mongolian cavalry has more than one horse, this is the norm, so Lu Xiangsheng just saw that each of them had a few horses, and he didn't care about it, but now he knew that they were actually here to send horses to himself this time.
That's true!
I don't know what to say for a while.
It's a little touching.
He had nine thousand men under his command, and soon seven or eight thousand of them were turned on their horses.
But there are still more than a thousand war horses left, which is a little embarrassing.
At this moment, a rumbling sound sounded on the grasslands in the north, and a large area of large iron carts, the kind of troop carriers with cargo buckets, drove over and lined up in front of Lu Xiangsheng......
Beggar smiled: "The troop carrier is here, then there will be no problem." Lord Lu, please let the rest of you get on the bus. ”
Lu Xiangsheng only glanced at the big iron car, and his whole person was messy in the wind.
This...... What kind of terrible weapon of war is this?
The Mongols had already mastered such a terrifying weapon of killing?
Not only was he messy, but the three thousand Tianxiong troops under his command were also messy, and Yang Guozhu, the governor of Xuanfu, was also messy.
The only one who expressed calmness was Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong who had been eyebrow-raising with Gaojiacun and secretly communicating with him...... At that time, Wang Pu defeated the Qing army with the help of Wang Er and Ma Shouying, and since then he has been quietly in contact with several generals in Gaojia Village, and they will rub together if they have nothing to do.
He also watched "The Legend of Daoxuan Tianzun Destroying Demons".
He knows this thing with a big iron car!
The more than 1,000 infantrymen who had not been assigned to war horses climbed into the cargo hoppers of nearly 100 large iron cars, and stood in the cargo bucket with a blinded face: "Can this thing really carry us away?" There are more than ten or twenty people in a car, how heavy is it? ”
Just as they looked puzzled, the big iron car "whined" and spewed out a puff of black smoke.
The soldiers in the cargo bucket choked for a while......
The driver laughed, grabbed the coal, and threw it into the boiler: "Brothers, hold on to the railing next to you and let's go." ”
The big iron car began to run!
Although the grassland is flat, it is not at all flat compared to the cement road, and the big iron car is running and jumping, and the car in this year does not have a shock absorption system such as air suspension.
The faster it runs, the more it soars.
The soldiers in the cargo hopper were screaming "whoa", "oh oh", and "yo yo", but the experience was not bad, like riding a pirate ship in an amusement park for the first time, it was sour.
The soldiers actually had a great time!
Now it was the turn of those who rode horses to envy: "Why do they play in big iron carts, and we can only ride horses?" If you don't accept it, you can play it instead. ”
Lu Xiangsheng was also riding a horse, and when he saw that the big iron car seemed to be very funny, he couldn't help but want to go up and have fun, but he was a dignified soldier, how could he do such an undignified thing, so he had to forcibly hold back.
At this time, a big iron car drove to his side, and the driver smiled and said: "Lord Lu, the cab of our car can seat two people, in addition to me, it can also carry a firecracker, the firecracker on my car has been locked up because of violating military regulations, and a place is temporarily vacated, do you want to come?" ”
Lu Xiangsheng didn't say a word, brushed the ground and turned over and dismounted, and then Ling Bo walked slightly to the position of the firecracker of the big iron car.
This position was a machine gun in later generations, but unfortunately Gaojiacun's technical strength was not enough to build a machine gun, so it could only be equipped with a large-caliber firearm.
Lu Xiangsheng sat on it, stretched out his hand to grab the firecracker, aimed left and right, and felt good...... Oops, always want to shoot something...... At this time, it would be nice if there was a Jiannu cavalry to fight him.
The large mixed team of the big iron chariot and the Mongolian cavalry used a fast speed to pass through Jianchang and chase towards Jinzhou......
The remnant sun was like blood, as red as Little Red Riding Basket's hat.
Dolgon led five hundred wounded, tired and hungry cavalry, and slowly advanced eastward.
The wild run through the Mongolian pasture in Jianchang made them sleepy and about to collapse, and their speed of action naturally slowed down, and they could no longer run wildly.
If you run any further, you won't be able to carry it.
Dorgon walked slowly......
The sound of horses' hooves behind him was abrupt, and a scout who was dragging behind suddenly caught up from behind and shouted, "Dashuai, something is wrong." Lu Xiangsheng's men caught up again. ”
Dolgon: "Holy shit, he's all infantry, how can he catch up?" ”
Scout: "The Mongols provided them with horses, and large iron carts dragged them through Jianchang, and now they also entered Jinzhou, dismounted, and followed on foot. ”
Dolgon: "it! Cheer up, we have to speed up again. ”
