After Liu Pei finished cleaning the battlefield, those who were willing to leave received silver and enough food, and they left thankfully. Liu Pei then left the corpses all over the floor and turned to the north. As for the food that he could not take away, all the food and food were burned by Liu Pei.

The goal of Liu Pei's operation this time is Malanyu. It is directly close to the side wall. If Liu Pei can occupy it, it will cause a great shock to the Later Jin army. Because this means that the Later Jin army's retreat will be completely cut off!

If Huang Taiji did not want to be blocked by the royal army surrounded by all directions near the capital, he would probably have to consider withdrawing his troops as soon as possible. After all, there were still many troops in the Ming Dynasty at this time. Even if the Later Jin army could fight, they would be severely damaged when surrounded! The Later Jin army could not afford to die! Their population was a flaw!

At this time, Liu Pei's number of horses increased, which gave him more strength to conduct forward reconnaissance. He directly expanded the cavalry's reconnaissance range to a radius of 50 miles, covering the team and advancing towards Malanyu.

There are two problems facing Liu Pei now. The first problem is that he does not know how many defenders there are in Malanyu. Liu Pei arranged for people to search through the history books but did not find it. The second problem is that the cavalry reported that they had discovered the patrol teams of the Later Jin army many times. It seems that the Later Jin army was quite concerned about the defense of Malanyu.

After careful consideration, Liu Pei decided to capture several prisoners to interrogate the information. For this reason, he sent out the guards around him again.

The 20 guards were divided into two groups and advanced to the north under the guidance of the cavalry. The cavalry team had discovered the cavalry of the Later Jin army many times before. However, they did not get the order to fight and could only hide aside quietly. The arrogant Later Jin army did not search the surroundings seriously, so the two sides never had any contact.

But this time it was different. Liu Pei had to capture several prisoners in a short time for intelligence. So the war between the scouts was about to begin.

In a small woods, ten guards and a guide cavalry were gathering together to discuss how to attack the Later Jin Tartars. Finally, they decided to ambush the forest close to the official road.

The group rode their horses along the official road. Just passed by

A team of Later Jin cavalry. They were ready to ambush this team of Later Jin cavalry when they returned. So they had plenty of time to look at the terrain and ambush them.

The ambush was a small wood close to the official road. The official road walked in an arc against the small woods, wrapping the tip of the small woods inside. Everyone was planning to ambush the curved official roads.

The group of people approached the ambush location, and when they were lit up at which point, suddenly a sound of horse hooves came from the opposite side of the official road. Several people were stunned. Before everyone could react, a team of Later Jin Tartars ran out of the corner of the official road. They immediately recognized it. Isn’t this the team of Later Jin Tartars that just passed? Why did they suddenly return?

As soon as the team of Later Jin Tartars turned around, they found a team of Ming soldiers parked there in front of them. They couldn't help but be stunned and subconsciously grabbed the war horse. The two sides were staring at me and I stared at you and there.

Then both sides reacted almost at the same time! Four people in the back row of the Later Jin Tartars took off their bows and arrows and took the lead in the fight. The other six Later Jin Tartars pulled out their weapons and jumped off their horses, roaring and rushing over! They felt that a charge could solve these Ming troops!

Liu Pei's guards also drew their weapons at the same time. Both sides knew that within a distance of more than ten steps, the war horses could not run at all, which would make the people riding on the horse passive. After all, standing on the ground is much more flexible than riding on the horse!

The guards also divided six people to meet him, while the other five took out short guns to prepare for shooting. The one who rushed in front was Liu Pei's deputy guard commander. He was a native of Shandong, named Qin Gang, and had a good martial arts passed down from his family. After layers of selection, he entered the guard camp.

It is said that Qin Gang's ancestor was Qin Qiong, a Shandong hero. I don't know if Qin Gang was born with talent or to imitate his ancestors. Qin Gang used two steer maces! Moreover, he was very skilled in the mace and was one of the best heroes in the guard camp!

Qin Gang pulled out the mace and jumped off the horse. He had already seen the bow and arrow of the Later Jin Tartars aimed at him. This is the benefit of the Later Jin Tartars' long-standing battle formation! They quickly identified who was the leader here. As long as they shot and killed the leader, their team would

In chaos!

Qin Gang knew that the bows and arrows of the Later Jin Tartars were very poisonous! Unlike the Mongols, there were two types of bows and arrows used by the Later Jin Tartars. One was a wide-headed and heavy arrow, and the shape of the arrow was like a flat shovel! The other was the form of an ordinary arrow, but it was twice as big as an ordinary arrow!

The damage caused by wide-headed heavy arrows when shooting in places without armor or thin armor is extremely great! And ordinary heavy arrows are suitable for armor-breaking! The advantage of these two heavy arrows is that the arrows are heavier and the trajectory is relatively straight. After being shot, the wound is large, which can easily cause the opponent to die.

Qin Gang knew that he must be the first target to attack. So he raised his left arm to cover his face as soon as he landed! Unlike ordinary soldiers, the armor of the guards can be customized. So Qin Gang added a small arm shield to his left arm, specifically to protect the face door. At this moment, this arm shield was used!

Qin Gang raised his arm and just covered the door, leaving only a line above the shield, revealing two fierce eyes to stare at the opponent. Sure enough, as soon as Qin Gang's shield was raised to his face, two arrows were shot on the shield in front and behind! One wide-headed heavy arrow, and the other ordinary heavy arrow!

The huge force hit the shield. Qin Gang's charge step was fixed in place! His arm also hit his face! But thankfully, the iron wrist guard just hit his mouth, not the nose! The impact on the mouth was just a pain. If he hit the nose, his nose and tears would be covered with tears, he would be unable to see the movements of the Later Jin Tartars!

Then Qin Gang heard the screams behind him. He knew that someone among the people who were preparing to use the short gun was unlucky and was shot! It was easy to take out the short gun from the saddle bag, but it was necessary to have a checking pot and then pulling the dragon head. It was a little slower than the Later Jin Tartars directly drew their bows and arrows, but this slower means casualties!

The Later Jin Tartars shot very accurately! The cavalry leading the way was shot in between his eyes by a wide-headed heavy arrow, and he fell to the sky and died directly! At close range, the power of the bow and arrow was even stronger than that of the pistol. Another arrow was shot on the shoulder armor when the guard twisted and avoided it and was bounced away!
