Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

Chapter 286 This is a ruthless man

Let's talk about the Xuzhou battlefield.

Jin Xuan's cavalry battalion is wandering around Xiao County.

In the field not far from the cavalry camp, old and young women and children are busy pulling out seedlings.

There are even many folks who joined the ranks of pulling out the wheat seedlings. After all, a hundred catties of green seedlings cost one tael of silver.

So far, the old and young women and children in Xuzhou City have pulled out all the wheat seedlings within a radius of one hundred miles, and now they have begun to target the wheat fields one hundred miles away.

As a result, the patrol task of the cavalry battalion is even heavier.

Especially the direction of Xiao County is the focus of patrolling.

Because he was worried about the lack of troops in the cavalry battalion, Chongzhen even transferred the eight hundred barbarians.

The specific division of labor is that the eight hundred barbarians are sent out with three or five cavalry to be responsible for patrolling. Once Jiannu is found, they will immediately report to the cavalry battalion, and the cavalry battalion will deal with it.

As long as the army of slaves in Xuzhou does not come back,

Jin Xuan's [-] cavalry is enough to deal with it.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Just yesterday, the cavalry battalion fought against Xianglan Banner.

Xianglanqi dispatched about fifteen Niulu and four thousand cavalry, but facing Jin Xuan's three thousand cavalry did not find any advantage.

Because Jin Xuan's cavalry did not fight Jiannu head-on, but relied on horse speed to keep a distance, and then used Lumi guns to shoot at long distances, which was actually a kite-flying tactic.

This set of tactics of the Mongolian cavalry is actually quite easy to use.

The only thing that made Jin Xuan feel regretful was that because the cavalry battalion was restrained by the flagmen of the bordered blue flag, they neglected to protect the old, young, women and children who went out of the city to pull out their seedlings. Killed a lot.

But fortunately, Jin Shenghuan, Wang Zuntan and Ma Huabao's frontier troops also rushed to the battlefield in time.

After a scuffle, Jin Shenghuan and other frontier troops from the three towns actually withstood Jiannu's attack by relying on chariot formations and musketeers' volleys. Realizing that there was no chance, the main force of Xianglan Banner withdrew to Xiao County.

After nightfall, the old, young, women and children returned one after another under the protection of Jin Shenghuan and other frontier troops from the three towns, and Jin Xuan was also preparing to lead the cavalry battalion to return to Xuzhou later.

However, at this moment, Wu Batan brought a group of barbarians over, and escorted two Jian slaves.

"Lord Jin, we have captured two Jiannu! They look like messengers!" Wu said, cupping Tan.

Although Wu Batan was named a loyal and brave man by Chongzhen, he was a noble man, but he had contact with the Han people as early as in western Liaoning. He knew that the Han people respected civil servants, so he respected Jin Xuan very much.

Jin Xuan's eyes fell on the two Jiannu.

The two Jian Nu immediately stared back viciously.

He was also chattering in Manchu language.

Although Jin Xuan didn't understand, he also knew that it was not a good word.

But Wu Batan could understand it, so he slapped him twice.

Only two slaps were heard, and half of the faces of the two Jiannus swelled up.

One of Jiannu immediately shut up, but the other kept cursing.

Jin Xuan asked Wu the charcoal: "Lord Wu, have you searched yourself? Did you find any wax pills?"

"I've searched my body, but I didn't find anything." Wu Batan shook his head and said, "It's probably a message. They won't say it anyway. Why don't we kill him?"

"Not in a hurry." Jin Xuan waved his hand.

After pondering for a while, Jin Xuan signaled Yi Ding to take away the one who shut up.

Then he asked Yi Ding to strip the whole body of the Jiannu who was still screaming and tie him up in a big font.

Jin Xuan took out a gleaming dagger and walked up to Jiannu, and said with a gloomy face, "I know you can understand the official language of Ming Dynasty, so now you listen carefully."

When Jin Xuan spoke, his eyes were fixed on the Jiannu messenger.

After hearing the words, the Jiannu messenger showed a mocking look on his face.

From this reaction, Jin Xuan knew that he understood.

As long as the Jiannu messenger can understand, the next step will be easy.

These barbarians are indeed good at fighting, but they are far from playing with their minds.

Jin Xuan thought to himself, the Jian slaves in Xiao County are inlaid with blue flags, which can be seen from the armor.

If these two enslaved messengers were really going to deliver a message to the Xianglan Banner, they probably had a password from Duduo or other banner owners Baylor, then what would this password be?
There are nothing more than two possibilities, one is to build slaves or want to besiege Xuzhou.

If this is the case, Duoduo will definitely order Xianglan Banner to keep the farmland in Xiao County.

The second possibility is that Jianu has decided to give up, so the Xianglan Banner will be forced to retreat.

Immediately Jin Xuan asked: "Did you follow Duoduo's order to deliver a letter to Xiao County?"

The Jiannu messenger didn't respond at all, but just spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on Jin Xuan's face.

Jin Xuan wiped off the phlegm stains on his face, and then asked: "I'm not embarrassing you, you just need to nod or shake your head, as long as you do what I say, I won't kill you, and I can let you go after the questioning." Walk."

After a pause, Jin Xuan asked again: "Is Duoduo going to let the Xianglan Banner do its best to keep the village?"

The Jiannu Messenger still looked at Jin Xuan with mocking eyes, and glanced at the dagger in Jin Xuan's hand with disdain, his eyes seemed to say to Jin Xuan, come on, take this dagger and kill me, I'll kill you If you frown, you are not a Jurchen man!
Jin Xuan didn't talk nonsense, he just swiped the dagger and smashed one of the balls under the crotch of the Jiannu Messenger.

This was as expected by the Jiannu Messenger, first there was a scream, and then he cursed Jin Xuan angrily.

"Ming dog! Ming dog who is a thief, you will die! If you have the guts, you will kill me. What kind of hero is the egg?"

Wu Ba Tan and the dozen or so barbarians behind him also shrank their necks, thinking that they hadn't noticed before that Mr. Jin, who is gentle and gentle, is also a ruthless person?It's scary to be a human being who doesn't agree with each other.

Jin Xuan wiped the dagger, and then asked with a blank face: "Again, you only need to nod or shake your head, as long as you follow through, you will be fine. If you don't follow suit, the next knife will directly kill your life."

After a short pause, Jin Xuan asked again: "Is Duoduo going to let the Xianglan Banner do its best to keep the village?"

The Jiannu Messenger still just looked at Jin Xuan with mocking eyes, and Jin Xuan cut him down without hesitation.

Blood splattered, dicks and eggs fell to the ground, and the Jiannu messenger also screamed, finally showing the color of fear.

But this Jiannu messenger was really ruthless, fearing that he would not be able to hold back the secret, he decisively bit his tongue and sprayed a ball of flesh and blood on Jin Xuan's face.

Kim Hyun still had no expression on his face.

But a dagger in his hand pierced into the heart of the Jiannu messenger.

The Jiannu messenger twitched a few times and then remained silent.

With another wave of Jin Xuan's hand, Yi Ding brought up another Jiannu messenger. The second Jiannu messenger glanced at the fallen companion and the separated dick, and subconsciously tightened his body.

But the two barbarians couldn't help stripping off his armor and robes.

The Jiannu Messenger looked at the dagger in Jin Xuan's hand with horrified eyes.

While wiping the dagger with a towel, Jin Xuan said with a sullen face: "Your companion told me just now that Dorgon asked you to send a message to Xianglan Qi, asking Xianglan Qi to keep the farmland near Xiao County. I think he is Lied to me, lied, so I'm going to let him die and separate, I hope you don't make the same mistake."

Wu Batan and a few Yi Ding were taken aback when they heard the words, how did Duoduo become Dorgon?
When interrogating Jiannu who had his dick and eggs thrown out just now, Mr. Jin was talking about Duoduo.

Jiannu Messenger subconsciously glanced at Jin Xuan, with a little panic in his eyes.

Seeing this look, Jin Xuan was basically sure that Dorgon had already personally arrived in Xuzhou, and that he had brought an army to Kaifeng Mansion to fight Li Zicheng.

But this is actually not surprising.

It is strange that Dorgon is not close to such a big battle.

Jin Xuan then asked: "I ask you, what is Dorgon's message?"

The Jiannu messenger was already terrified in his heart, but he still resisted the urge to reveal the secret.

This result was also expected by Jin Xuan. Jiannu must have extremely severe punishment for traitors.

At this time, it depends on which one is more deterrent, Jiannu's punishment for the traitor or the real threat in front of him.

"Okay, then let's change the way." Jin Xuan said, "If I ask you something, you just nod or shake your head, so you don't count as leaking secrets, because you didn't say anything."

There was a look of struggle on the face of the Jiannu messenger.

Apparently, Kim Hyun's words worked.

But in fact, it was Kim Hyun's previous "inducing confession" that worked.

Jin Xuan deceived the slave messenger. The slave messenger who was killed actually said nothing, but the remaining messenger believed that he had confessed half of the secrets.

Now that his companions have already confessed, there is no need for him to hold on.

Jin Xuan then asked: "Has Dorgon ordered Xianglanqi to retreat?"

While asking questions, Jin Xuan had already raised the shining dagger.

Jiannu Messenger didn't have time to think, so he hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Very good." Jin Xuan nodded, and then asked, "Should we let Xianglan Banner retreat to Shandong?"

The Jiannu messenger hurriedly shook his head, keeping his eyes on the dagger in Jin Xuan's hand, lest it would suddenly fall.

"That's right, it can save you from suffering." Jin Xuan smiled slightly, and at the moment when the Jiannu messenger also relaxed, the dagger suddenly slashed across his neck.

Jiannu Messenger's gaze became dull in an instant.

Staring blankly at Jin Xuan, it seemed a little unbelievable.

Wu Batan and a dozen Yiding were also a little surprised.

This Jian slave messenger is very cooperative, how can he kill him?
"None of these Jian slaves is innocent." Jin Xuan wiped the blood on the dagger with a towel, and said, "Which hand is not covered with the blood and tears of our Han people? They all deserve to die!"

Wu Batan and a dozen or so Yi Ding were awe-inspiring when they heard the words, but they thought to themselves, Mr. Jin is a ruthless character, if there is nothing to do in the future, it is better not to provoke him, otherwise not only their lives will be lost, but they will also lose their lives. Well, even the corpse has become mutilated, for example, the Jiannu just now may only be a eunuch in his next life.

At this time, the old and young women and children and the frontier soldiers had all gone away.

Jin Xuan immediately shouted: "Lord Wu, let's go back too."

Immediately, the two of them came back to Xuzhou with their respective songs.
