The rest of the Jiannu cavalry no longer cared about snatching Lord Huerhan's body. It was urgent to escape, so they turned their horses and fled.
The team of bird gunners in front of the Yaowang Temple had loaded their ammunition again, and they were condescending to light the fire and fire the guns. There was a loud "bang bang" sound, the fire was splashing, and the smoke was filled. It was very powerful, but this round of shooting was completely lacking.
As a result, Zhang Yuan clearly saw that a Jiannu cavalry was shot in the back shoulder, but the projectile seemed to fail to penetrate his armor. The Jiannu groaned, leaned on the saddle, and continued to gallop on the horse——
With a "swish" sound, an arrow shot out, passing by the back of the Jiannu cavalryman who had just been shot, but hit the neck of the mount under his crotch. The mount hissed loudly, and the man stood up instantly.
The Jiannu cavalryman slipped off the horse's butt, but his left foot was still hanging on the stirrup. He was dragged by the horse for a few steps before he was freed. When he was about to stand up, a military captain in gilded uniforms caught up with him and slashed his calf with a knife, causing him to scream.
Falling to the ground with a sound——
The person who bent the bow and shot the arrow was Ke Guangxian. He took the hemp-backed bow that Mu Jingyan had placed beside the cart, controlled the string and fired furiously. He shot people first and horses. This Jurchen of Yehe tribe was very good at archery.
Zhen Zidan failed to kill or injure a Jian slave, so he was eager to make a contribution and shouted: "Catch up and annihilate the Jian slaves." He led his mount, got on his horse, and called his captain to follow him in pursuit.
There were thirty-two of the Jiannu cavalry when they came, but there were still nearly twenty who fled. They came like a gust of wind and fled as fast as they could. They were more than ten feet away in the blink of an eye. With the strength of these Jinyiwei's mounts, they would not be able to catch up.
, and the musketeers are all infantry and cannot pursue them. If we rely on these guards who only know how to use swords to pursue them, we are afraid that they will never come back——
Zhen Zidan took the lead and gave chase. The other Jinyi guards did not dare to fall behind and rode their horses to chase. At this time, the fleeing Jiannu cavalry had already approached the bend of the mountain road. Two of them turned around on horseback and fired arrows.
Zhen Zidan, who was chasing at the front, fell off his horse. The other Jinyi guards immediately reined in their horses and did not dare to pursue anymore.
The slave-building cavalry did not even run away. They reined in their horses one by one, drew their bows and shot arrows at the imperial guards. The people who sneaked into the territory of Ming Dynasty and Liaodong Capital this time were all the elite cavalry of the Eight Banners Army. They had just galloped down and fired arrows.
Very accurate killing power. At this time, he immediately drew the bow. The arrows were really accurate. The Jin Yiwei in the front were hit by the arrows and fell off their horses. The souls in the back were so frightened that they quickly turned around and ran back——
The sound of hoofbeats suddenly started. The twenty cavalry slaves who had originally fled for their lives now chased after them, firing arrows as they chased, threatening to kill all the dozens of royal guards.
The situation was critical. If Zhang Yuan was so frightened that he quickly retreated to Yaowang Temple, the balance of victory and defeat would immediately flip. These Jiannu cavalry could turn defeat into victory with a single charge. Scenes like this were common in the Liaodong War in the late Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Yuan said loudly: "Rumi Gun, don't panic, wait until the thief gets close before shooting."
There were about twenty Lumi guns loaded with projectiles. The musketeers stared nervously at the retreating Jin Yiwei and the Jian Nu who were chasing after them.
It's your own people.
Seeing that the Ming envoy's horse-drawn defense line was intact, the Jiannu cavalrymen knew that the Ming army's firearms were waiting for them, so they did not dare to pursue them anymore. They fired another round of eagle-feather arrows and then retreated, quickly disappearing in the
Back mountain col.
Zhang Yuan ordered the musketeers to be on guard against the Jiannu cavalry before they came back, and the rest hurriedly treated the wounded. Zhen Zidan's reckless pursuit caused heavy losses to the Jinyiwei. Five people were shot in vital parts by sharp arrows and died on the spot, seven others were seriously injured, and four others
The horse was hit by an arrow in the crotch. The horse knocked them off the horse and injured them. In addition, the Jiannu cavalry killed and wounded eleven musketeers and guards during the previous charge. When they rushed to the carriage defense line and fought hand-to-hand, four more
A famous Jinyi guard was killed by the tiger-tooth knife of the Jiannu cavalry, and six people were injured. In this short tea time, twelve Jinyiwei died and twenty-one were injured, and four musketeers died and nine were injured, two of whom were
Among the injuries caused by the explosion of the musket, one had three fingers blown off, the left side of one's face was cut by the iron piece of the barrel, and Ma Kuoqi was also injured by an arrow.
Nineteen of the thirty-two Jiannu cavalry who attacked retreated safely. The losses of the Ming envoy in this encounter were far heavier than those of the Jiannu!
"Master Zhang——"
Zhen Zidan leaned her scabbard on the ground and stood up with a pale face. Just then Jiannu turned back and fired an arrow, which was as fast as lightning. After all, Zhen Zidan had been practicing martial arts for many years, and her adaptability was better than ordinary people. She ducked to the left based on her feeling, and she unexpectedly shot an arrow.
The shot hit the junction between his left shoulder blade and clavicle, causing severe pain. He also injured his left leg when he fell off the horse.
Seeing that Zhen Zidan had saved his life, Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards Zhen Zidan. He was not Zhen Zidan's immediate boss, and Zhen Zidan was seriously injured. He deeply blamed the inconvenience and asked someone to quickly treat Zhen Zidan's injuries.
Of the thirteen Jiannu cavalry who were lost here, seven were hit by muskets and fell off their horses. Five others rushed to the carriage formation and were killed by Mu Jingyan and the Jinyi guards. Another one died in the guest room.
Shoot the arrow first.
Zhang Yuan walked up to Zhen Zidan and saw that the iron cluster of the carved feather arrow had penetrated deeply into Zhen Zidan's left shoulder blade. If treatment was not carried out properly, Zhen Zidan's left arm would have been disabled, so he immediately comforted Zhen Zidan.
Three feet away from Zhang Yuan's back, a "dead corpse" of a Jiannu lying prone on the ground began to move slowly. This Jiannu was not dead, nor was he seriously injured. He was shot by Rumi's gun during the charge and fell off his mount.
After fainting, he woke up and realized his situation. The Nanchao sergeant was searching the body of his companion. It would be his turn soon——
A warrior in imperial robes murmured curses and walked over and kicked the "corpse", trying to turn the "corpse" face up for inspection. Suddenly he saw the "corpse" leaping up and snatching away his embroidered spring.
The knife was inserted into his chest——
Seeing that the sword was successful, this Jiannu immediately rushed towards Zhang Yuan. He had already seen that Zhang Yuan was the leader, and his goal was to kill or capture Zhang Yuan alive.
In addition to a few Jinyi guards, the only two people following Zhang Yuan were Wang Zongyue and Sheba. Wang Zongyue was closer to the right of Zhang Yuan, and Sheba was on the left side of Zhang Yuan's body. Sheba was the first to be alert, with a thin body like a civet cat.
Turning around as lightly as he did, the narrow-edged knife was already in his hand, stopping the Jiannu's crazy counterattack. The sound of the swords clashing was ear-piercing——
Wang Zongyue stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Yuan's right elbow. Zhang Yuan involuntarily stepped back seven steps, farther away from Jian Nu. Zhang Yuan shouted: "Leave a life alive."
Wang Zongyue agreed, but he had never had the chance to use his Tai Chi spear. At this moment, he hunched up and stabbed out with his spear, accurately piercing the right leg of Jiannu who was fighting fiercely with Sheba. Almost at the same time, Sheba's narrow
The blade also pierced the chest of the slave, and Wang Zongyue screamed, "Save him alive!" It was too late.
Mu Jingyan ran over and couldn't help but feel scared. He didn't expect that there was a Jian Nu who was cheating to death. If this hurt Zhang Yuan, it would be a disaster. The Jian thieves were so fierce that they really couldn't be careless in the slightest. Only then did they admire him.
Wang Zongyue stayed with Zhang Yuan's steady side, as well as Ma Kuoqi and Sheba——
A careful search of Jiannu's body revealed that another Jiannu had only been slightly injured by a musket, but he had fallen heavily and woke up later than the previous Jiannu who had intended to attack Zhang Yuan. He had already been tied up by two Jinyi guards.
Ke Guangxian was very surprised. He kept guarding the corpse of a Jiannu and refused to let the Jin Yiwei examine the body. The Jin Yiwei informed Zhang Yuan. When Zhang Yuan came back, Ke Guangxian pointed at the corpse and said, "Master Zhang,
This Hu'erhan is Tong Nuer's adopted son." Ke Guang, who had been silent all this time, looked happy.
The battle situation was so urgent earlier that Zhang Yuan heard the Jiannu cavalry crying "Lord Hu'er Khan" and did not have time to think about it. At this time, the guest said this first, and he remembered that there was a report about the governor of Liaodong in the Di's newspaper in July last year.
Li Weihan's memorial stated that Nurhachi's adopted son Hu'erhan killed more than fifty Han people on the pretext that the Ming Dynasty people crossed the Jinshitai boundary monument and came to Jianzhou to cut trees. Li Weihan strictly ordered Nurhaci to hand over Hu'erhan.
, Nurhachi only killed twenty Jurchen tribe prisoners who were enemies of Jianzhou at the foot of Fushun City, even if they were handed over to the Ming Dynasty——
Zhang Yuan looked at Hu'erhan's body on the ground. He looked about forty years old, with a broad face, short beard, and long arms. He should be Nurhachi's right-hand man, otherwise Nurhaci would not have done anything.
The adopted son, Zhang Yuan, said to Ruan Dacheng and others who came out of Gang Temple: "This Hu'er Khan was the culprit who killed more than fifty Ming people outside Fushun City last year. He died today at the hands of Mu Baihu, at the foot of Fenghuang Mountain.
, this is really a great thing about Skynet.”
Ke Guang first said: "Sir Zhang, Huerhan is still one of the five ministers established by Tong Nuer last year, and he is more noble than Nalan Baksh."
"Five ministers!"
Zhang Yuan raised his eyebrows, with a look of surprise. The five ministers were the most important contributors after the founding of the Later Jin Dynasty, second only to the four major Baylors. Zhang Yuan knew the important status of the five ministers in the Later Jin Dynasty, but he did not remember which five ministers they were.
I didn't know the Qing Dynasty, and I didn't expect that the Hu'er Khan who died in front of me was one of the five ministers. With this person, the sacrifices of the Jin Yiwei and the Musketeers today would not be too aggrieved.
Nalanbakshi in the prison car couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard that Khurhan had died here in battle. Just now he was hoping that Captain A's army would save him and take revenge by killing all the Ming and Korean envoys.
Hong Ji, Hong Xin and others all congratulated Mu Jingyan for his great achievements. Mu Jingyan is now a member of the 100-household trial. If he kills an important minister of Jiannu this time, he will definitely be promoted, and he may be promoted to 1000-household or even 1000-household.
The rain had long since stopped, and the red sun was shining calmly. Zhang Yuan interrogated the Jiannu cavalryman who had been injured by a musket in Yaowang Temple. At first, the Jiannu cavalryman refused to speak, but when he saw the shackled Nalanbak,
What, the Jiannu cavalry was shocked and asked: "Master Erdeni, why are you here?"
But it turned out that Huerhan and the others did not know about the North Korean coup. This time they sneaked into the Ming Dynasty not to rescue Nalan Baksh, but to rob. The snowstorms and floods in Jianzhou area that started last year caused many Jurchens to die.
, came to rob the Han people on this side of the Liaodong border wall without food or clothing. This was the consistent style of the slaves. Hu Erhan, who was patrolling Kuandian, heard that the Ming Dynasty envoys were followed by caravans when they went to North Korea, so he thought
When the mission returned, they looted and made a fortune, but unexpectedly lost their lives here.
