The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 740
Obai was shocked, these Taiyuan rioters moved so fast!

He ordered the lieutenant beside him, "Fu Ta, send the order, the whole army will pull out the camp and go to the east of the city to help!"

"Whoo!"

The messenger sent by He Luohui hurriedly stepped forward, "Wait a minute, my lord, there is one more thing." But he hesitated to speak and looked at the other people in the tent.

Aobai waved his hands impatiently, "Everyone go out."

After the others left, the members of the He Luohui whispered: "Lord Batulu, my general also said that Kong Xigui might have defected to the enemy, so you need to be more careful."

"Okay, I see. You go to write back to He Luohui first."

Aobai signaled the man to leave, but he couldn't help frowning, there were more than 700 gunners from Kong Xigui's troops in his battalion, so he shouted to the outside: "Come here, arrest the gunners of the Henan army."

He changed his mind, since Kong Xigui had turned against him, then Wei Zhouyin had to be on guard too.These two are both generals of Henan Luying, and they have a very close personal relationship. If the surname Wei turns against him and comes behind his back when he is in battle, he will die.

The combat power of the left and right green camps could not be counted on, so he simply ordered Wei Zhouyin's troops to stay where they were and not to leave the camp for half a step. He also pointed out a Jianzhou officer and asked him to lead more than 1000 people to watch from the side.

When he finally ordered more than 8000 people under his command and was about to go to reinforce He Luohui, he was shocked to hear the sound of the medium-sized cannon in Linfen City, followed by the sound of screaming and killing.

After a while, Fu Ta rushed over and said: "General, Jiang Xiang suddenly rushed out of the city and attacked my rear!"

"Damn it, court death!"

Ao Bai immediately ordered the army to turn around where they were, and to face Jiang Xiang's men and horses and kill them.

He was riding on the horse, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. It happened that Kong Xigui rebelled. As soon as he ordered Zhou Yin to be imprisoned, Jiang Xiang from the city attacked. These three Han people must have hooked up!
That's right!The people in Linfen City should be attracting my attention, and the people who will defend Zhou Yin will attack my flanks!
He hastily ordered the whole army to stop, face north and west to set up defenses, and secretly ordered the officers who monitored Zhou Yin to try to surrender the weapons of the Henan army.

In fact, Jiang Xiang only saw the fierce battle in the east of the city, and knew that reinforcements should be coming.He was also quite flexible, thinking that if the Qing army in the south of the city was allowed to rush to the east of the city, most of his reinforcements would not be able to withstand it.So he brought 3000 troops and went out of the city with great fanfare, just to hold Oboi back.

Unexpectedly, until it was dark, Oboi's nearly ten thousand army just cautiously confronted him at a distance, as if they were afraid of something.

It doesn't matter to Jiang Xiang, as long as you don't go to the east to help in the battle, we'll just stare at you, that's fine.

Besides, on Wei Zhouyin's side, he suddenly received a strict order that his subordinates were not allowed to leave the camp for half a step, and even the horses were not allowed to be released.

Although he was puzzled, he still followed the order.

Only a while later, another Ming army came out of Linfen City.He was planning to get his troops ready for battle, but unexpectedly thousands of Jianzhou soldiers poured into the battalion and offered to borrow his weapons for use.

Even a fool can find something wrong.

Wei Zhouyin was procrastinating while interviewing the visitor, when he suddenly saw his confidant keep winking at the side.

He found an excuse to get out of the big tent, and an officer with crooked armor thumped and knelt down in front of him. It was the officer who had witnessed Kong Xigui being shot down by He Luohui's cannon.

The man cried, "General, my general was attacked by the southern army and had no choice but to retreat. Unexpectedly, He Luohui plotted behind his back. The guns were fired, and seven or eight of the army died. My general was... also framed." The white flag cannon kills..."

"Brother Kong is dead?!"

Wei Zhouyin's mind buzzed, and suddenly all the events that happened today were strung together—He Luo would plot against Kong Xigui, and Oboi wanted to hand over Lao Tzu's weapons. It seems that they had already planned to eat Get rid of our two brothers.

Although he couldn't figure out how he and Kong Xigui had offended them, it was important to save his life right now, after all, brother Kong had already died.

He summoned his confidant officers and said in a low voice: "Order all the brothers in the battalion, when I sound the trumpet, they will rise up at the same time and take down the Jianzhou soldiers in the battalion!"

Obai soon received the news that Wei Zhouyin had tied up the men he sent to monitor him, obviously it was the opposite!

I guessed right!

His heart was like a taut bowstring, and he was on guard all night. It wasn't until dawn the next day that he realized that Jiang Xiang had already retreated into the city, and Wei Zhouyin's camp was also empty.

At this time, the He Luo club has been defeated for a long time, with countless casualties.The original barracks with white flags have been replaced by Ming army flags with blue background and bright sun and moon.

In a rage, Aobai sent someone to chase after Wei Zhouyin, and asked him why he wanted to rebel, but the latter asked him why he wanted to harm himself and Kong Xigui.

After going back and forth between the two sides more than ten times, they barely figured out what was going on.When Wei Zhouyin returned to the city of Linfen suspiciously, and "resolved his suspicions" with Obai, two days later, the defeated troops of He Luohui and Kong Xigui fled back to the camp of Obai, most of them had been wiped out by the Ming army.

Aobai was furious, and went to attack Qin Yiming's camp with his whole army, but found that there was already a high wall and ravines, and there was nowhere to attack.

Wang Xiang is worthy of being a general of Wang Yingxiong's army. He won the true inheritance of the latter's good at fortification, and combined with some advantages of the bastions, he built the Baigan Army's camp with three floors inside and three floors outside, forming corners with Linfen City on the west side.

Afterwards, Oboi managed to attack twice more, the casualties were extremely heavy, he had to set foot in the south of the city, and there was no way to take Linfen for a while.

Qin Yiming got the emperor's will, so he only sent people to keep a close eye on the movements of the Jian captives, and was not in a hurry to fight.Because he knew that as long as the emperor's army took Beijing, the [-] or [-] Jian captives in front of him would have no choice but to surrender.

But he said that He Luohui escaped with a hundred of his confidant guards, and he didn't bring any dry food when he was in a hurry. After starving for two days, he didn't know how far he ran, and saw a large herd of cattle and sheep on the gentle slope in front of him.

He almost couldn't saliva, and immediately ran over to grab the livestock, but suddenly a dozen people appeared behind the slope, and asked loudly and vigilantly, "Who are you?!"

He spoke Mongolian.

He Luo knew Mongolian well, and when he saw someone who was not from Nanming, he didn't pay much attention. He immediately reported his identity and asked, "Which tribe do you belong to?"

The Mongols froze for a moment, then returned with a sly smile: "We are from the Horqin Ujit Department. We are here for reinforcements at the order of the Regent."

He Luohui was overjoyed, and told them about how he was framed by Kong Xigui and the army collapsed.The Mongol enthusiastically slaughtered the sheep and roasted it on the fire, asking his people to satisfy their hunger.

Before the meal was finished, horns sounded from all directions, and four or five hundred Mongolian cavalrymen aggressively surrounded He Luohui and others. The leader brandished a knife and said coldly: "Not one will be left behind!"

When the killing was over, the Mongol who asked He Luohui to eat barbecue happily carried the heads of two Jianlu, and said to the leader: "My lord, I don't know if He Luohui was slaughtered, what can God Khan reward us?"

It turned out that it was the Sunite troops who escorted the "food and grass" for the Baigan Army.They have been canonized by the Ming Dynasty, so they call the Son of Heaven Tian Khan according to the custom.

The leader said with a smile: "It's a pity that no one was caught alive, otherwise a thousand households would definitely not be able to escape!"
