"Mr. Xia thanked you for your life-saving grace here." Xia Guang hugged his fists in the direction of the bird gun's fire, and then said, "The Jurchens have escaped, all the heroes can come out."

His eyes looked in the direction where the bird gun was fired, and he was curious about who saved him.

"Raise your hands above your head and stand there and don't move." The person in the dark shouted to him.

"Okay, I won't move." Xia Guang raised his hands above his head and said, "I am the head of Zhangjiakou, a Han Chinese. Don't get me wrong, all the heroes."

At this time, he saw someone shaking in the dark and walked in his direction.

He knew that these people should be the ones who had just saved him.

Soon, more than a dozen young and strong men wearing black iron armor came to him and surrounded him in the middle.

"In the past, a few people went to see if the Jurchens still had any living habits. If they were not dead, they would make up for it." One of them ordered.

Five or six out of a dozen young men walked around to check the situation of the Jurchens who were hit by muskets.

"You go and search for his body." It was obvious that one of these leaders ordered a young and strong man next to him.

The young and strong man walked towards Xia Guang and began to search his body up and down.

Xia Guang raised his hands and let the other party search.

At this time, he could have confirmed that the people who saved him were Han people, but the iron armor on these people and the bird guns in their hands made him a little confused about where the other party came from.

After searching, the person in charge looked at Xia Guang and asked, "Since you are an escort from Zhangjiakou, what are you doing on the grassland? Why are you hunting down by the Jurchens?"

Xia Guang said truthfully: "We were guarding the Fanji caravan. We arrived at the grassland. But we didn't expect that Fanji colluded with Hou Jin. After knowing this, we escorts left the caravan and wanted to go back to Zhangjiakou. We didn't expect that we left in the evening and were chased by the Jurchens at night. In the end, I was the only one who escaped. The other escorts died tragically under the Jurchens butcher knives. If we hadn't met you to save them, I would have died at the hands of the Jurchens at this time."

When he spoke, his voice choked.

There were more than a dozen stintsmen who came to the grassland with him, all of whom were with him day and night. Now he is the only one who is still alive, and the rest are buried in this grassland.

A young and strong man next to him said, "Captain, the news we have received is indeed an escort who followed the Fanji convoy to the grassland."

The man named Captain nodded.

Xia Guang was stunned when he heard this. He heard that the people in front of him seemed to have known that the Fanji caravan had come to the grassland, so he guessed that it was probably not a coincidence that he met these people here.

"Captain, I have investigated it. There are six Jurchen bodies, and there may be injured. They should have been taken away by the escaped Jurchens."

A young and strong man who went to check the Jurchens' situation came back to report.

The person known as the captain nodded and said, "Take away all the useful things on these Jurchens, and take away all the remaining war horses, and throw them here to feed the wolf. This person will also take them back together."

"All the heroes, I am Han like you, and I really have nothing to do with the Jurchens." Xia Guang shouted.

He fell off the horse before, and he was already in a state of death and wanted to use his life to fight against the Jurchens. After being rescued, his intention to die had disappeared, and instead he was worried about where these people would take him.

The people in front of them were obviously extraordinary, unlike ordinary horse bandits, who were pierced armor, holding bird guns in their hands and sabers on their waists.

Such a piece of armor would not even be so neatly raised by the generals. Most of the personal soldiers and servants used bows and arrows, and there was almost no one who used bird guns. Only the people in the firearm camp would use bird guns.

"Take it away." The man who was called the captain ignored him at all and ordered his subordinates directly.

Two men walked over from the side, tied Xia Guang's hands, and escorted him away from the grassland.

Not far from this grassland, more than a dozen horses were gnawing on the tender grass on the ground.

Xia Guang was thrown on the horse's back, and then a young and strong man carried him, and followed the others to urge the horse to gallop in one direction on the grassland.

More than a dozen horses ran on the grassland for more than half an hour before stopping, and everyone got off the horse.

At this time, Xia Guang noticed that he was taken to the edge of a low forest.

However, before they could get close to the forest, they heard someone shouting in the forest: "Stop, command."

"Night visit." Xia Guang heard the man in front of him who was called the captain saying these two words.

At this time, he had only one thought in his mind. These people were well-trained and more like the Ming Dynasty's official army. Otherwise, how could they even have commands? There would not be such strict orders among the horses and bandits.

"It turns out that Captain Chen is back. Captain has been waiting for you for a long time." The person in the forest said.

Xia Guang heard the title of captain again, and this time there was another title of captain, which made him frown and he couldn't figure out the identities of these people.

As the former night of the army, he also stayed in the border army for several years. He did not remember any captain or official titles of the captain in the army.

Chen Wu turned around and said to the two people guarding Xia Guang: "Take him with me and go to see the captain."

The group entered the forest.

Xia Guang originally thought that the so-called captain was in this short forest, but after he came in, he realized that he had guessed wrong, because he had been through this short forest and came to the other side of the forest before he saw the fire and shaking figures.

"Captain Chen Wu of the Sweeper Cavalry, I have met the captain." Chen Wu clenched his right fist and leaned his chest.

The man sitting by the bonfire turned around and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, sit down and roast the fire first."

Chen Wu walked forward two steps, sat on a wooden pier beside the bonfire, picked up a piece of dry firewood, threw it into the fire, and said, "The Jurchens are here, right in the Fanji convoy, I just fought with them."

"What's the result?" Ma Yunjiu turned his head and looked at him.

I heard Chen Wu say, "It is not as powerful as the rumors. It may be related to the fact that my subordinates are in the dark. After only three muskets were fired, the Jurchens fled, leaving six corpses, and none of our people were injured or killed."

Ma Yunjiu asked, "How many Jurchens have you met?"

"There were more than a dozen people who were chasing an escort at that time. The escort had been rescued by his subordinates. This person was an escort invited by Fan Ji, and the person was brought back by his subordinates." Chen Wu said.

Ma Yunjiu picked up the big teapot and drank the hot water in it, and asked, "Have you asked? Why did those Jurchens chase him?"

Chen Wu said: "According to his own confession, it was because he learned that Fan Ji colluded with the Later Jin Dynasty. He left Fan Ji's convoy with the escort. He was chased by the Jurchens that night. He was the only one who escaped, and the rest of the escorts were killed by the Jurchens."

Speaking of this, he paused and said, "The subordinates have sent someone to the place he said to verify. If all he said is the truth, the bodies of those corpses should still be there."
