This blocking battle bought time for the people to retreat south. Under Li Yan's constant urging, they had already escaped from the battlefield for ten miles and rushed to the Zhulong River.

By the Zhulong River, at first glance, there is an endless head.

But fortunately, the role of a soldier in Beijing as a centurion in every hundred people has an absolute effect.

When the people saw Jun Ye beside him, they felt much more stable.

The original floating bridge was already crowded with people, and the soldiers leading the team were hoarsely urging the people they led to cross the river.

Zhang Ziyan and Hongniang stood in front of the floating bridge on horseback, roaring loudly.

"Quick, hurry, don't be crowded."

"Quick, hurry, throw away all the burdens except food, run, run."

Li Yan was also stomping his feet and roaring: "Hurry up and drive piles, lay the door panels quickly. Quickly, use the coffins as boats and connect them together, hurry up."

However, the new pontoon bridge was still slowly built, and five more pontoon bridges were originally planned, but it was still impossible to achieve due to material problems.

At this time, Princess Changping stood beside Li Yan and saw that the river water was turbulent, but it only reached the waist of the pile driving brothers. So she urgently proposed to Li Yan: "Hurry up and pull more ropes on the river, so that the people can hold the ropes and cross the river."

Li Yan slapped his head: "Thank you for the reminder of the princess."

Thick ropes were connected on the Zhulong River, and the people immediately diverted the flow, holding the rope and crossing the river with difficulty.

In this way, the speed of crossing the river will be faster.

But after all, it is more than 200,000 people who support the elderly and the young, and they will definitely not be able to cross the river in a short time.

At this moment, smoke and dust rose up in the sky in the north, and the sound of horse hooves like thunder trembled and shook the earth.

The enemy's cavalry are catching up.

The dust was together, and the order that was barely maintained was completely in chaos.

The people cried and called their parents, and they called their children and were furious.

Countless people were crowded with the completed pontoon bridge, and countless unfortunate people were squeezed out of the pontoon bridge, fell into the river, and struggled in the water.

Countless people rushed into the river regardless of the rapid flow of water. For a moment, the turbulent river was filled with people.

People are constantly being squeezed down and swept away by the turbulent rivers.

Zhang Ziyan was not anxious, showing her style as a daughter in the family.

He rode on the horse, raised his big gun and shouted: "Brothers from Beijing Camp, gather."

Although Zhang Ziyan was not a general in the Jingying camp, when he was acting as his elder brother in charge of the Jingying camp, all the soldiers regarded her as their general, her goddess, and her eldest lady.

With an order, the soldiers who were originally scattered among the people immediately left the people behind and moved closer to Zhang Ziyan.

The Hongniang ran towards Li Yan by horse and said, "You can protect the princess across the river immediately."

Li Yan looked at his wife lovingly: "You ride a horse and take the princess across the river, and I will accompany Miss Zhang to block the enemy."

"What can you, a weak scholar, do? Or I will accompany Miss Zhang, so you can cross the river quickly."

"No, I am the military advisor of Tianji Mansion, and it is my duty to block the enemy. Besides, if men and women are not allowed to marry each other, I can't ride a horse and take the princess with me, that's very disrespectful."

When the Hong Madam saw that the weak princess could not ride a horse across the river alone, what should I do?

At this moment, the princess stood up and said, "General Li Yan."

Li Yan hurriedly bowed and bowed.

"The people who cross the river need to organize, you cross the river first."

"That princess."

"I'll stay here."

"No." Li Yanhong's wife was shocked and opposed in unison.

The princess said firmly: "Only if I stay, the people can remain calm and the soldiers of the Beijing camp dare to fight."

Yes, princess, now the banner of this team and the backbone of the Ming Jingying. They have the obligation to die for the princess.

"I have to wait for my husband to come back." The princess looked north and murmured to herself.

Li Yan is not a person who can't let go of the importance of the matter.

Look at the huge and boundless sea of ​​people, and look at the densely packed and panicked people on both sides of the Zhulong River.

He nodded fiercely: "As for orders, take care of the princess."

He looked at his wife again.

The Hongniang smiled and said, "Don't let mother-in-law, let's do what we should do."

Li Yan nodded and beat the horse down the river.

The Hongniang protected the princess and came to Zhang Ziyan's side.

As soon as he saw that the princess had not left, Zhang Ziyan was anxious.

But the soldiers of the Beijing camp burst into shouts: "Protect the princess, I'll fight to the death."

As such news came out, the soldiers of the Beijing camp who had crossed the river took up their weapons without hesitation, swam back again, and gathered under the princess's banner.

When countless people saw the princess, they became quiet.

They saw a king who died in the country, and a princess who was strong and caring for the people.

They saw that the backbone iron-blooded Ming Dynasty, who believed in faith and thought about by their ancestors, were back.

This is the effect of Chongzhen's death.

Among the people, two old men stopped and walked under the princess's banner.

Groups of old men and strong women stood firm and gathered under the princess's banner.

The man who had crossed the river was scolded by their parents and pushed by their wives. He reluctantly bid farewell to his family, swam back again, and stood under the princess's banner.

Some of them have farm tools and sticks in their hands, but most of them have bare hands.

But they have a brave heart, a boiling blood, a great head, and a great man's body.

Princess Changping did not persuade them to leave. It was not that she needed their protection, but that they were blocking the enemy here, and more people could cross the river and be saved.

"The soldiers of Beijing camp are lined up in two rows, preparing muskets."

The 2,500 soldiers who were originally arranged to lead the people stood up and formed a neat team.

Jiannu came to kill him. They faced this team of almost all the people, looked at the people all over the river and smiled.

This will be another exciting killing, and this will be another happy harvest of slave capture.

But Ajig felt something strange.

What's strange is that he saw three female generals standing in front of the formation, still standing still.

He saw the people standing in front of him, and each of them looked firm and unmoved.

When did the people of the Ming Dynasty be so fierce and fearless?

If all the billions of people in the Ming Dynasty were so brave and fearless, how could the Qing Dynasty just a few million people rule this world?

"My sons, this time, we don't want any prisoners of slaves, we kill them all. Only such massacres can truly scare the Han people. Only one massacre after another can we conquer them. Kill-"

The war horses began to jog, preheat, slowly accelerated, and started charging.

This will be the sixth time that the Qing Dynasty has massacred in the Central Plains.

The first time, Zunhua was massacred.

The second time, Datong was massacred.

The third time, Jizhou was slaughtered.

The fourth time, Dingxing was massacred

The fifth time, Jinan was massacred.

This time, we will slaughter again with great pleasure.
