Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 19 Dark Night

Chapter 19 Dark Night
Zhang Qi was standing not far behind Ye Xun. He was going to follow Ye Xun to release poisonous smoke outside the city, and he was a native of Tieling, so he couldn't participate in the looting of Li's house.

The flickering firelight in the distance reflected on Ye Xun's pale face, giving people a feeling of a vulture.

Zhang Qi is both respectful and afraid of Ye Xun in his heart now. He has long heard that the eunuchs who came out of the palace are vicious and greedy. This little Eunuch Ye is indeed ruthless, but little Ye Gonggong really has nothing to do with us bitter soldiers. Said, I heard that Eunuch Liu was quite greedy
"You said that the report we sent to Shenyang this morning, can Shenyang receive it?"

Ye Xun's sudden questioning immediately interrupted Zhang Qi's wild thinking, and quickly replied: "Under normal circumstances, it is possible, but the Tartar army is not far away, I am afraid we will not let us send the news!"

Ye Xun smiled noncommittally. He knew that Nurhachi would definitely not send someone to intercept the messenger. In Nurhachi's view, the more Ming troops that Tieling could gather, the better, so that he could wipe them out in one fell swoop.

The question now is whether Yang Gao in Shenyang will believe the information he sent. Hundreds of thousands of troops have been wiped out by Nurhachi. Can a small Tieling be defended?Not to mention defeating the old slave's army, for those generals of the Ming army who were already frightened, this is probably equivalent to the Arabian Nights.

what a pity!It is still impossible to contact the eunuchs in the imperial palace in the capital. The generals in Liaodong don't believe it, but those eunuchs will definitely believe it.

Ye Xun really wanted to keep a low profile in Tieling, but if he wanted to do big things, he couldn't keep a low profile. First of all, he had to have an identity that made everyone obedient.

Thinking of this, Ye Xun's mind flashed, and he suddenly thought of Jin Yiwei.

The largest spy organization in the Ming Dynasty should also have a yamen in Tieling, right?How did I forget this?

In fact, it's really no wonder that Ye Xun couldn't remember, since he opened his eyes in time travel, he has been busy with various things, and it's only been two days, how can he take care of everything?
Ye Xun didn't know, but Jin Yiwei, who he just remembered, had already noticed him first, and sent his performance in Tieling to the capital as quickly as possible.

While speaking, the shouts of killing from the direction of Li's mansion gradually subsided, but the fire became bigger and bigger.

Ye Xun knew that Liang Zhen's side was almost done, and it was time for him to leave.

He tightened his cloak, stopped talking, turned around and walked down the attic first, then disappeared into the night with Zhang Qi and others
The night was like black ink, and amidst the howling cold wind, Ye Xun and the others were like a group of ghosts, silently groping towards the direction of the Jurchen camp.

It was dark, and fortunately Zhang Qi, a local, led the way, otherwise Ye Xun would have been lost.

It stands to reason that with Ye Xun's current prestige in Tieling, even if he doesn't come, Zhang Qi and the others will definitely obey orders, but this matter is too important, and Ye Xun is really worried if he doesn't come. It's not like I didn't have the idea of ​​​​distrusting these Ming soldiers. After all, the Liaodong Ming army in the late Ming period in history was too rubbish.

Fortunately, Ye Xun's performance in the past two days has been remarkable, which has already given these Ming soldiers a kind of blind trust in him. Besides, Ye Xun also told them before coming that this time he is not going to fight, but to light these herbs. Come back later.

At the same time, Ye Xun also promised these soldiers that after returning, each of them will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver.

You don't have to risk your life, and you still have money to take, no fool would come here!
The distance of sixty miles, although it was dark, Ye Xun and the others arrived in less than two hours. If it was daytime, the time could be faster, but this time is just right, it is exactly ten minutes of midnight.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, which is the best time to do bad things.

Of course, Ye Xun and the others couldn't touch the side of the camp to ignite the herbs. After finding the limelight, Ye Xun and others lurked around three miles away.

There were a total of fifty soldiers who came out with Ye Xun. In order to operate smoothly, more than ten of them were from the scout battalion.

These people are all masters of stealth, and they are natives of Tieling, familiar with the terrain, so the location they chose for Ye Xun is not only hidden, but also the fire will not be too obvious after the herbs are ignited.

At this moment, the Jurchen camp was completely silent. The emperor Taiji wanted to lure Ye Xun into the camp, and the preparations were complete. Not only did the patrols outside the camp have been withdrawn, but the number of sentries inside the camp was much less than before, only at the camp gate. Some guard posts have been set up, making people look like they are still heavily guarded.

As soon as Ye Xun and the others hid their whereabouts, the scouts in front of them came over.

After saluting Ye Xun, he whispered: "Eunuch, something seems wrong! As far as I know, the defense of the Tartar camp has never been so lax. Could there be some conspiracy?"

After hearing the scout's report, Ye Xun couldn't help but sneered "hehe", and said to himself Xiao Huang, you underestimate me, don't you?

He whispered: "Don't worry about them, no conspiracy can do anything to us, brothers, light the fire when you are ready, be careful, cover your mouth and nose, and don't smoke yourself."

Before coming, everyone also made corresponding preparations. Without waiting for Ye Xun's order, they covered their faces with the prepared wet cloth, spread them out, and started to ignite the herbs.

In order to increase the coverage area and burning time, more than 50 people brought more than 200 packs of herbs. Fortunately, they were all dried herbs and had little weight. Otherwise, these people might not even be able to take weapons.

After the herbs were ignited, everyone retreated immediately to avoid being smoked by the fireworks.

Although these are all dried herbs, in order not to cause too much open flame, they have been processed before coming here, so after being ignited, only thick smoke comes out, but the flame is very small, and because of the distance, if you don't observe carefully , it's really not easy to find out at the Jurchen Camp.

After doing this, Ye Xun did not leave in a hurry, but led his men around half a circle, came to the other side of the camp, and moved a lot closer to the Jurchen camp.

Ye Xun was careful when he left the city. He told his subordinates to come back after ordering the herbs, but he didn't say that he would make some noise to attract the attention of the Jurchen soldiers, lest they find the flames.

It wasn't until Ye Xun and Zhang Jin put down their equipment and opened it that the accompanying soldiers were surprised to find that they were carrying two firearms, the Shenhuo Feiya and Zhentianlei.

Everyone couldn't help but thought at the same time, "Grandpa Ye is crazy, do you want to attack the Jurchen camp with these few people?"

It was dark and it was hard to see everyone's expressions clearly. At this time, Ye Xun was not in the mood to pay attention to everyone's thoughts.

Said in a deep voice: "Tartars are also human beings, no more than us Han people. Anyone who wants to be afraid can leave early, and our family will never stop them."

Zhang Jin yelled in a low voice at the side: "Fuck me up, cheer me up. When I get here, whoever dares to take a step back, I look down on him, and the guy in my hand doesn't know him. Ye Gonggong can say, come today!" All the brothers are rewarded, from now on we will follow Eunuch Ye, a great future is waiting for us, what are you waiting for, hurry up and light the fire for me.”

Having said that, if anyone dares to say no, or wants to sneak away in advance, it is no different from courting death.

At that moment, a soldier ran over to take the firearms in Ye Xun and Zhang Qi's hands. After aiming in the right direction, he directly lit the fuse.
