Ming Dynasty: Starting from Liaodong Jiangmen

Chapter 76 Ambush all out
Several generals in armor stood side by side behind Li Shunzu.

They are the current leading generals of Shenshu Camp, Yu Kuan, Xiong Xinghu and Xu Dong.

"Where is Jiang Yong?" Li Shunzu asked.

Yu Kuan laughed and said: "The general sent someone to look for him, but he couldn't find him. The governor doesn't have to worry. Jiang Yong has always been like this. There must be no order from the governor to detect the army. With him here, he is very thorough. ”

Li Shunzu nodded slightly, without comment.

Xiong Xinghu and Xu Dong looked at each other and started chatting.

"What do you think of Jiang Yong?"

Xu Dong was slightly startled, searching his memory carefully, but he smiled miserably: "Brother Xiong, it seems that I have never seen Brother Jiang!"

"Ah?" Xiong Xinghu was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he said, "You are in charge of logistics, so it's normal that you can't see him. This kid Jiang Yong has been promoted from a servant to a general at night, and it's hard for me to even see him. "

"I don't know what he is busy with every day. I heard from people that he came back once a few nights ago, but left again before dawn."

Xu Dong nodded, smiled and said nothing.

But in his eyes, there was also a little curiosity about this mysterious Ye Bu Shou general.

Jiang Yong is 37 years old, which is exactly 15 years older than Li Shunzu, but he has not yet married and had children.

Because he was responsible for sentry duty, Jiang Yong usually left early and returned late. Not to mention the ordinary soldiers of Shenshu Camp, even Li Shunzu would not see him once in several days.

Sometimes everyone thinks that with Jiang Yong's behavior, he likes to travel lightly to investigate the enemy's situation. If he dies outside one day and cannot come back, maybe no one will find out for half a month.

Jiang Yong usually rushed out of the camp before the army had a meal, and it would be several days before he came back again. Once, he even returned to the camp after ten days. Many people even forgot that there was this person in the Shenshu Camp.

That time, Jiang Yong stayed in his camp for a few days, and then drove away with his war horse in the early morning of one day.

Although they haven't met each other for a few times, everyone is very relieved about Ye Busuo's sentry affairs.

The detectives who came and went in front of and behind the army were all sending back intelligence in an orderly manner according to Jiang Yong's orders.

As the ambush was getting closer, Jiang Yong went out more frequently. During this period of urgent marching, he was actually not in the army the whole time. He was always out exploring the enemy's situation.

Now the soldiers and generals of Shenshu Camp have developed a habit. When they see Jiang Yong rushing back to the camp on horseback, they often have a major military situation.

So where he has gone now, even Li Shunzu doesn't know.

However, when Jiang Yong was in Liaodong, he had served as Chief Qian for many years, and was one of the first people to notice the Dongnu attack during the battle at Guangqumen. He was extremely well-educated.

Li Shunzu had no doubt about his ability.

The Xuanwu helmet on Li Shunzu's head was still shiny when he left the capital, but now it is stained with blood, covering up the former brightness, but at a glance, it looks even more breathtaking.

Several people stood up on horseback, but suddenly they frowned.

A fast horse galloped back in front of the depression, but it was Jiang Yong, the general who had been away for several days, who returned.

As soon as they saw him, Li Shunzu and Yu Kuan looked at each other, and their hearts sank.

With Jiang Yong's acting style, what is worthy of him coming back to report in person must be extremely important military information.

"Governor! Sahalian is already twenty miles away!"

Li Shunzu was a little surprised when he heard this and asked: "What's going on? Sahalian's marching speed has increased. Did he receive any news?"

Jiang Yong's horse was panting and whining from the long run, but he ignored it and dismounted directly. He said anxiously: "The general led people to conduct a reconnaissance twenty miles to the west, and found that Saha Lian was leading the expedition. Come lightly armed with a small number of guards!"

Li Shunzu was stunned when he heard this information.

He didn't play his cards according to the routine. Shouldn't Saharian and his subordinates slowly lead the people through the yellow mud puddle, and then be ambushed by him and escape?

Now he came here with a few people, to fight or not to fight?

If you fight, you will alert the enemy. After receiving the news, the Hou Jin Army will not go back to Huangniwa. If the population is not robbed, Saha Lian will be acquitted by Huang Taiji when he returns, and Amin will still be unable to escape. One death.

If he didn't fight, would he just watch Saharian calmly withdraw from his eyes?

Several people did not expect such a change, and they all looked at Li Shunzu, waiting for him to make the final decision.

"Send the order, the army ceases its flags and drums, and stops encamping."

Li Shunzu clenched his fists and said: "Let Sakhalian pass!" Intercepting Sakhalian is not the purpose. The real purpose of this battle is to intercept the tens of thousands of people who were taken away by Zhenghongqi. This is what allows Sakhalian to pass. The key to Ha Lian's return and conviction was that Li Shunzu also wanted to keep this evil-doing slave chief.

But this is war, and you cannot rely on your own temporary pleasure and ignore the overall situation!

Keeping Amin is the ultimate goal of this battle, everything else can be put aside!

"I can not be reconciled!"

Xiong Xinghu yelled and shouted: "Governor, this Saharian is notorious near Yongping and has done many bad things. Now we just happened to intercept him and avenge the dead people!"

"I'm not willing to let him go like this!"

Li Shunzu looked at Xiong Xinghu and said coldly: "This is a military order, execute it!"

"Saharian, there will be plenty of opportunities to deal with him in the future!"

When Xiong Xinghu saw Li Shunzu's cold expression, he suddenly realized that he had transcended the distinction between upper and lower, and he quickly shut up and said no more.

"Report! No Ming army ambushes seen!"

Saharian laughed loudly when he heard the news about the return of the Sentinel Cavalry: "Well, let me tell you, our Dajin invaded the Ming Dynasty this time, with overwhelming force, as if entering an uninhabited land, the Ming army has no fighting spirit, how can Do you dare to go out of the city and set up an ambush?"

"One part of the Liao army is still in Luanzhou, and the other is still far away in Changli. They don't know our army's retreat route. Send an order to the rear army to keep moving forward. I'm rushing to Jialing first!"

After saying this, Saharian flicked his riding whip, led several guards, and galloped away.

When passing by Huangniwa, Saharian also realized that the terrain here was dangerous and difficult for horses to pass. However, he was full of contempt for the Jifu Ming army, so he decided to speed up and rush to the boundary ridge to join the army.

Many people in the Shenshu Camp and Tuanshan Camp did not understand why Li Shunzu set up an ambush and deliberately let the Dongnu leader go.

For a time, rumors spread among the army.

However, due to Li Shunzu's strict order, no one caused trouble while Saha Lian passed.

When Saharian left, many military generals had angry faces.

It was really unpleasant to watch the slave chief run away in front of his eyes.

About two hours after Saharian passed by, the sky was gradually getting dark. At this time, no reports were received at night, and a large group of men and horses with red flags were discovered in the rear, as well as a group of people who were being held hostage that stretched for several miles.

Everyone immediately cheered up and prepared for the attack.

Two generals of the Later Jin Army in red armor led the team, marching and laughing at the same time.

"This is really a dangerous place to set up an ambush. If the Ming army sets up an ambush here, we may not be able to return home alive."

Another person sneered: "Looking at your cowardly look, half a day has passed since the little flag leader, and the ambush troops have already come out. Besides, except for the Liao soldiers, which other Ming army saw that we were not invincible and fled all the way? "

"The Great Khan conquered the Ming Dynasty, and it was overwhelming all the way. How could the Ming army dare to go out of the city to fight? There is nothing to worry about."

At first the man nodded and rode forward, but he was still frightened.

Not long after walking, suddenly a fast horse galloped over.

"Report! There's movement on both sides!"

"I know, let's explore again!" The two men only agreed on the horse, not taking it seriously at all, "They are just birds and animals. Even if they meet the Ming army, they may just explore the horses and tell the rear team not to pursue them and let them go. You can run away for your lives!"

A group of red flag slaves laughed loudly, holding whips in their hands and urging the refugees to speed through.

"Gounikan, let's go!"

"Speed ​​up!"

The whip penetrated the flesh, and screams and heart-stopping beatings were heard from the marching team.

When most of the meandering refugee team entered the Huangniwa, an earth-shattering cry of killing suddenly rang out. A high-waving flag was raised behind the depression, and countless Ming troops rushed out from behind the depression.

"Kill slaves——!"

The two leading Zhenghongqi generals were stunned when they saw this scene.
