Chapter 386

In addition, the Mongolian general Hauger fled overnight with more than 10,000 troops, and fled back to Hulangtu City at seven o'clock the next morning, and joined forces with Hulangtu guard general Zakbu, and there were more than 20,000 soldiers and horses.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Hauger and Zakeb, as well as the generals, were in the command hall of Hulangtu City to discuss the method of dealing with the enemy. Hauger said: "Generals, everyone has expressed their opinions to see how they can hold the city of Hulangtu." Zak preached: "How many soldiers and horses does the Ming army have, how can our Mongolian army be so vulnerable." Hauger said: "If you don't say good, we don't know how many reinforcements the Ming army came, I heard Arutai say that there are hundreds of generals, all of them are strong in martial arts, they are all rushing to kill in the front of the unstoppable, what is more terrifying is that the Flying Tiger General who is the leader, it can really be described as martial arts, the brave General Mahamu does not support the people, and in the blink of an eye, he was killed by someone else's knife, and the Flying Tiger General took Mahamu's big knife to kill our generals, just like chopping grass, several heads fell to the ground with a knife. ”

Zack preached: "This man is so fierce, we are invincible, how to start a war, we have to close the city gate and defend it to the death." Hauger said: "I'm afraid it's hard to hold, these people seem to be able to fly the eaves and walk the wall, the city wall can't stop them at all, the city wall of Dehua City is taller than this Hulangtu City, thousands of people guard the city gate, but in the middle of the night someone instantly broke through the city gate." Zach preached, "That's good." ”

At this time, Ha Chijin said: "I saw with my own eyes that the Flying Tiger General jumped from under the city wall to the head of the city, he swung his sword to kill people two zhang away, Mo will even roll and climb down the city tower to report the news, but his martial arts are too high, he jumped off the city tower and swung his sword to cut down the two big latches of the city gate, and the Flying Tiger Army outside followed and rushed into the city." If you don't get away with your life, please punish the general. Hauger said, "Forget it, that man is too fierce." General Mahamu doesn't have a single move, let alone you?" Ha Chijin said: "General Xie." Ha Chijin paused and said, "General, General Mo has a suggestion that I don't know whether to say or not." ”

Hauger said: "The soldiers are about to enter the city, if there is anything else that should be said or not, you can say it." Ha Chijin said: "Now the Ming army is unstoppable, and the only way to withdraw is the best policy." Zack preached: "Ha Chijin." Are you calling us deserters?" Ha Chijin said: "Those who know the times are Junjie, the city is not ours in the first place, and if we stubbornly defend the city, the whole army will be destroyed." Zack preached: "You are disturbing the morale of the army before the battle, and you should be beheaded according to military law." Ha Chijin said: "It doesn't matter if General Mo lives or dies, after two days, the Ming army will break the city, and everyone will be dead." Zakbu still wanted to reprimand, but Hauger said: "General Zakbu, you calm down first, what Ha Chijin said is not unreasonable, and defending the city is definitely a dead end." ”

Zack preached: "Then we have to report this great thing to the Khan." Please, Khan decide. Hauger said: "Arutai has returned to Dadu to move rescue troops, but two days have passed and there is no news." Zack preached: "Then we will hold for three more days, and if there is no news, we will withdraw our troops." Hauger said: "Okay, just according to General Zakeb, the four gates should be strengthened and guarded." Zack preached: "I have a way to defend and promise to wait for help to come and the city will not be broken." Hauger said, "General Zakb, tell me about it." Zack preached: "Tear down the house and block the city gate, and it is not so easy for them to come in and open the city gate." Then drive some of the people up to the head of the city to defend the city and use them as arrows, and see how they will attack the city. Hauger thought for a moment and said, "There is some truth to what you say. Without further ado, you copied it as soon as possible. ”

Zaqb immediately ordered the houses to be demolished and blocked the city gates, and the city gate holes were made of bricks and stones to form a wide wall, and the soldiers were ordered to arrest some people to go up to the city to defend the city. At four o'clock in the afternoon, all the four city gates were sealed, and Hauger and the others waited for help with peace of mind.

Let's talk about Dehua City, clean up the battlefield. Except for the defenders of the city, the other generals went back to the barracks to rest. After dinner, Chang Yue'e and them, Liu Qingyang, and Hong Feng. Tong Yunfei and the others all went to Lingyu's residence to get together and chat. Liu Qingyang said: "Brother Zhang, when are you going to attack Hulangtu City." Lingyu said: "I haven't decided yet, I'll go to Hulangtu City to check the situation later." Ma Junlan said: "Big brother, let's go with you." Lingyu said: "I'm just going to check the situation, and it's not a war, why do you go to so many people." Ma Junlan said: "No matter how good people are, they take care of each other." Lingyu smiled: "I can still take care of it when there are few people, but it is not easy to take care of it when there are many people." Ma Junlan said: "Can't people take care of you if they don't want you?" Lingyu smiled: "Okay! Ma Junlan smiled and said, "Who wants you to take it! After speaking, they looked at Chang Yue'e and said with a smile: "Sisters, do you say yes?" Hong Xia said: "If you go alone, we really don't feel at ease." Lingyu said: "Okay then, Xia He, you go and call the messenger Wade, and I will ask him to take me to Hulangtu City." Xia He said: "Yes, Childe." With that, he walked out.

Lingyu said: "Sister Lan, you all go and prepare, and we'll leave when Wade comes." Chang Yue'e and the others all went back to the room, Lingyu also went to the room to change into night clothes and walked out, and after a while, Chang Yue'e and Xiang'er came back, they all changed into night clothes and brought weapons. Ma Junlan said: "That Wade hasn't come yet." ”

At this time, someone outside the door said: "The young general Wade is here." After speaking, he walked into the house, clasped his fists and saluted: "The young general has seen the generals, and I have seen the generals." Lingyu said: "Let me ask you, how far it is to Langtu City, and how to go, do you know?" Wade said: "Tell the general, the young generals are very familiar with Hulangtu City, Butumu City and the surrounding paths, and Hulangtu City is about a hundred and ten miles away from here. Lingyu said, "Let's go." After speaking, he said to Liu Qingyang and them: "Brother Liu, Brother Hong, and Brother Hong, you all go back and rest in peace!" Everyone was polite, and Lingyu and Chang Yue'e walked out.

Lingyu and the others came to the stable, they each took out their own horses, and Wade also led the horses and walked over, saying, "General, shall we go here?" Lingyu said: "Yes, get on the horse and set off." The men jumped on their horses and sat down, and urged their horses toward the camp gate. When he arrived at the camp gate, he said, "Who are you, and where are you going so late?" Wade said: "This is General Zhang, if you want to go out of the city to do business, open the camp gate quickly." When the gatekeeper saw that they were all in civilian clothes, he approached and took a closer look by the light of the torches, and when it was the great general, he immediately saluted and said, "General, the little ones are offended, please forgive me." Lingyu said: "You are loyal to your duty and are not guilty, so you don't need to forgive your sins." The gatekeeper said, "General Xie." After speaking, he said: "Open the door and let the general pass." "A few soldiers over there were busy opening the door.

Lingyu and they went out of the camp gate to the north gate, the north gate guard stepped forward to interrogate, and when he got closer, he saw that it was Lingyu, and hurriedly saluted: "General, are you here to patrol the defense?" Lingyu said: "We want to go out of the city to do business, you order someone to open the city gate." The general said, "Respect the order." Then he shouted, "Open the gates and lower the drawbridge." Immediately a dozen soldiers went to open the gates, and the drawbridge creaked downward.

Lingyu waited for the city gate to open half before urging the horse out of the city, and when the drawbridge landed, a group of seven people, Wade took the lead and ran towards Hulangtu City. (To be continued......)
