Chapter 21: The Soul of the Han and the Traitor

() The Ming army formed an arrow array, with Zhao Lingjiao as the arrowhead, and with an aura that seemed like death, they crashed into the dark Tatar troops.

With such a huge disparity in numbers, and even if they were killed, there would be no trophies, the Tatars even bothered to fight. The main ones who rushed towards the Ming army were Yu Ding and the Mongolian Tatars who were not very well equipped.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the arrow hit the Tatar team, it was like a pair of sharp scissors cutting through cloth. All the Tatars it hit were killed or wounded and fell off their horses. They quickly broke through the first Tatar charge line. The Ming army did not suffer many casualties.

.

Zhao Shujiao wiped the Tatar blood on his face and said happily. Then he bumped into the next Tatar team.

After hitting five Tatar charging lines, less than half of the team was killed or injured, and an estimated four to five thousand Tatars went to meet the King of Hell.

When the news was reported to Huang Taiji, he was shocked. He went over to observe the formation in person. He found that the Ming army's morale was like a rainbow, and they always maintained an arrow formation. They opened and cracked wherever they hit. The Tatars in front of the arrows were already a little scared and did not dare to step forward.

.

Huang Taiji quickly sent his own Baya La up.

Niulu Ezhen Shumulu has been promoted to Jia La Ezhen due to his merits, so he was sent there this time.

He is a veteran who is accustomed to fighting, and he knows that if the Ming army is now so powerful, the losses will be huge if they go head-to-head. In the arrow array, the hardest thing is the arrow, but if the arrow breaks, it is also the most deadly.

Shumulu summoned his men, followed a group of ordinary Tatars, and approached the arrow array.

Just when the arrow hit the group of Tatars in front, Shumulu ordered his men to fire out three waves of heavy arrows.

The Ming army never expected that there would be a rain of arrows during the close battle with the Tatars. The guards protecting Zhao Lejiao fell from their horses one after another. Zhao Lejiao was also hit by many arrows in the last wave of arrow rain, and fell from his horse.

At the moment when he fell from the horse, Sun Chengzong's figure appeared in Zhao Lejiao's mind, and he said silently in his heart: Jing Lue, I have not failed you any longer!

In fact, at this time, Zhao Lejiao was at the end of his strength. He was already sixty-one years old. Although he had the courage of Huang Zhong, he had been fighting for a long time and was already exhausted. He just kept fighting with a will.

When the surrounding Ming troops saw that the commander had fallen from his horse, they all dismounted and came to rescue him.

When he helped Zhao Lijiao up, he was no longer breathing.

"Avenge the commander! Protect the commander's body!" The Ming army formed a circle with Zhao Lijiao's body as the center and fought to the death with the surrounding Tatars.

Baya soldiers replaced the ordinary Tatars and attacked. They thought that the Ming army's main general was dead, and since he had fought hard for a long time, it should be easy to solve.

Unexpectedly, the Ming army knew that they would die, and under the inspiration of Zhao Lijiao, they completely sacrificed their lives for their own lives. The casualties of Baya La's soldiers also slowly increased.

At this time, Huang Taiji came to the outskirts of the battlefield. Seeing such a tragic battle, he couldn't help but feel very surprised. He was ready to add more troops.

Fan Wencheng, who was standing next to him, took a step forward and quietly said to Huang Taiji: "Master, the Ming army has lost the strength of its horses and formed a circle, just enough to greet them with bows and arrows."

Huang Taiji came to his senses and ordered the Baya soldiers to retreat, allowing everyone to attack with bows and arrows.

After the war ended, Huang Taiji took a breath of air as soon as the battlefield statistics came out. All four thousand Ming troops were wiped out, but his own side had more than 8,000 casualties, including more than 400 Baya soldiers.

If the Ming Dynasty had this kind of army, how could we, Dajin, still survive?

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng next to him and couldn't help but feel relieved: Fortunately, not all Han people have such blood and courage.

In fact, not all of Zhao's teaching army was wiped out. There was another one, Zhu Yuanzhong, who had diarrhea, but his diarrhea actually saved him. When Zhu Yuanzhong was chasing after the large army after having diarrhea, he happened to witness countless Tatars showing up to besiege Zhao's teaching.

Although Zhu Yuanzhong was brave and powerful, he was not a fool who would step forward to kill the enemy in such a situation. (Unless he was Ultraman.) At that moment, Zhu Yuanzhong abandoned his helmet, reduced his weight, and fled back all the way.

.

He knew that Jianlu would end the battle soon, so the sooner he left here, the better. After thinking about it, he did not go back to Santun camp and ran directly to Shanhaiguan, which was safer and where he could alert subsequent reinforcements.

Huang Taiji was very depressed and opened a Supreme Treasure. As a result, his opponent only placed one dollar in chips and broke his finger when turning over the cards. As soon as the battle was over, a military meeting was held and the troops were divided into three parts.

Second, attack Zunhua and Santun camp at the same time. The main force has already appeared, and there is no point in besieging the city for reinforcements.

When Huang Taiji personally led most of the main force to Zunhua, Fan Wencheng came up with another plan: first send the Mongolian allies to attack the Malan Valley to the west of Zunhua, and the governor of Shuntian Youqiandu Wang Yuanya would definitely send troops from Zunhua to rescue him.

, as long as they ambush them on the way, one can kill more Ming troops and capture Malan Valley, and the other can mobilize the Ming troops in Zunhua City to leave the city, allowing Fan Yongdou's people to move around in the city, hoping to capture Zunhua in one fell swoop.

The emperor was very happy and adopted his plan. Sure enough, Wang Yuanya heard about the dangerous situation in Malan Valley and hurriedly sent his generals to rescue. Needless to say the result.

When the army besieged the city, Wang Yuanya fully understood the situation. Because the Jianlu had blocked the roads leading to Zunhua, Wang Yuanya never got the detailed military information that the Jianlu were attacking.

In addition to admiring Emperor Chongzhen's foresight, Wang Yuanya hurriedly mobilized troops to defend the city and wait for reinforcements.

After the Jianlu Tatars besieged the city, the main force was stationed at the north gate, but they did not attack the city and only made a bluff outside the city.

Fan Yongdou's people had entered the city in batches the day before. They were all desperadoes who only valued money. The leader was a native of Zunhua named Yu Haijing. He was powerful, both coarse and fine, and had a lot of skills.

Previously, he had supervised a group of street gangsters in Zunhua, but he was extremely filial. He had an old mother who was sick for a long time at home, and he often scolded him when he saw him hanging out with gangsters day and night. So Yu Haijing bought a maid to serve his old mother.

He dismissed his gangsters and joined Fan Yongdou to seek wealth. But he often went home to visit his mother every once in a while.

A few years later, Yu Haijing was already Fan Yongdou's number one general. Since he was a native of Zunhua and familiar with the situation, he was sent over to cooperate with the Tatars in their attack on the city.

The night before the Tartars besieged the city, Yu Haijing brought someone home. His sister opened the door and saw that her brother had returned. She was very happy. (His sister was a maid, and because she had served her mother wholeheartedly for a long time, her mother recognized her as her daughter.) She was busy working up and down.

Yu Haijing went to greet her mother before she died, and when asked about the people she brought back, she concealed them as business friends.

After settling in, Yu Haijing led people to inspect the locations, where to set fires, when to concentrate, and to attack which city gates. The arrangement was in an orderly manner.

The next day, the Tatars besieged the city, but Yu Haijing and others did not go out. After three o'clock that night, he led his people out quietly, bypassed the night watchmen, and went their separate ways. They set fires everywhere in the city to disturb the sight.

While they were busy putting out the fire, they gathered their manpower and waited. At the second quarter of the third watch, the Tatars from the north gate began to attack the city. At the fourth watch, Yu Haijing led people to attack the south gate according to the agreed time, cooperating with the police who had been lurking outside the city for a long time.

Ruibaya La soldiers captured the south gate and Zunhua City was destroyed.

As soon as the south gate opened, the Tatars were like water overflowing Zunhua and began to scatter and kill.

After hearing the news, Wang Yuanya regretted not listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words and committed suicide by hanging from a beam.

After the Tatars killed all the Ming army, some Tatars began to burn and loot the guns. The other Tatars started to rob them, so they had to take care of military discipline. They had quick hands and slow hands, so they all started to disperse and loot the guns. Suddenly, everyone was full of people.

The city's flames soared into the sky, and the sound of crying could not be heard.

It was getting slightly brighter, and the Tatars outside the city began to enter the city. They were so happy when they saw the Tatars who entered the city robbing them that they were jealous. After robbing them once, they started to rob them a second time.

After Yu Haijing cooperated with the Tatars to capture the city gate, she led the team back to her home, comforted her panicked sister and mother, and guarded the door of her home.

At first, when the Tatars saw that this man had a white towel tied to his arm, they knew he was one of their own and did not come in to disturb him. There was plenty of room for them to rob.

At dawn, the Tatars who had just entered the city were looting everywhere, but they had already been robbed once by the Tatars who had never seen the colorful world before. They didn't get much leftovers. The more they grabbed, the more anxious they were, and they became red-eyed.

A group happened to pass by the door of Yu Haijing's house. Seeing that the house was intact, they didn't care whether the person guarding the door tied a white towel or not, so they rushed in and started robbing them.

Yu Haijing really didn't dare to challenge these Tatar princes. She had no choice but to consider herself unlucky. Anyway, the reward Fan Yongdou promised for this vote was extremely rich.

Unexpectedly, he heard his sister's screams. He quickly rushed over and saw that several Tatars were holding his sister down and doing something good. His old mother had been hacked to death with a knife.

Suddenly, a stream of blood rushed straight to Yu Haijing's forehead. She took a knife and was about to rush forward.

When his men saw something was wrong, they hugged him quickly and snatched his knife away.

The knife was taken away, but the man was freed, and Yu Haijing rushed towards the Tatars like a tiger.

At this time, the Tatars had no desire to fight. They met a man as crazy as a tiger, who was their opponent. Fortunately, with the help of Yu Haijing's men, they escaped to the gate.

Duduo happened to be heading to the former governor's residence, where the Great Jin Khan was currently holding a meeting. Passing by, he saw a Han chasing the Jurchens. This was not bad, so he ordered people to capture him. Then he said to the chased Jurchens:

"It's such a disgrace to Dai Jin. Come here, drag him down and beat him with twenty military sticks each."

Duduo had already seen the white towel tied to Yu Haijing's arm, and knew that this was Fan Yongdou's inside job. He just didn't know how to cause a conflict.

Yu Haijing's men hurriedly explained the reason for the incident.

After hearing this, Duduo raised his eyebrows and said: "Dajin Warrior favors your sister and thinks highly of you. Not only are you ungrateful, but you dare to beat me, Dajin Warrior. Come on, beat me hard with the eighty army stick."

After giving the instructions, Duduo turned the horse's head and continued to move forward. Before leaving, he even said something: "I hope you have done a good job in opening the door, otherwise I will kill you without mercy! Han dogs, you must always remember your identity."

"

Yu Haijing was completely speechless and just roared. The Tatars didn't care. After beating him with eighty military sticks, they dropped the unconscious Yu Haijing and walked away.

Although Yu Haijing's men were sympathetic, they were Jurchen princes and did not dare to complain, so they had to carry Yu Haijing in for treatment.

As soon as she woke up from the pain of the wound, Yu Haijing was told that her sister could not bear the insult and had hanged herself, so she fainted again.

Things in the world are often like this. When suffering happens to others, it has nothing to do with oneself and is ignored. Some are even one of the creators of the suffering. But when it really happens to oneself, one realizes that it is actually the cause of the suffering.

It hurts so much.
