Fu Ming Lu Chapter 2197 Brave Adventure Songshan Fort is twenty miles away from Jinzhou, separated by Rufeng Mountain, so these twenty miles are almost all mountain roads, although not steep but rugged, and because this mountain road is two cities The only passage has become a battleground for military strategists during wartime!
Therefore, Dorgon set up more than ten light and dark sentries along the way, and even had many informants in the surrounding villages. They would know if there was any trouble, so if he wanted to hide troops in the mountains for an ambush, I dare not say it was impossible. But the chance is too small!
Li Guo and his group of more than ten riders left Songshan Fort and traveled three or four miles before reaching the foot of the mountain. At this time, the wind and snow were too strong and the scenery in the distance was not clear. They could vaguely see the movement of the mountains. There was a small village near the mountain road, about From seven or eight households, the sound of barking dogs could be heard faintly, but no human beings or animals could be seen.
"Are you afraid?" Li Guo looked around with a faint smile on his face. Next to him, Song Xiance was curled up on the horse with no expression and said nothing. The entourage behind him was so heroic that he said, "I have followed you through mountains of swords and seas of fire. What's there to be afraid of?"
"I'm a little scared." Li Guo looked at the mountain road in the distance and sighed softly. The attendants around him looked blank, and he continued: "I'm afraid that this time I will return in vain, and I'm afraid that others will look down upon me."
All the followers took a long breath, and Li Guo looked at Song Xiance again: "Sir, are you scary?" Song Xiance took a breath: "Afraid, afraid of the cold wind hitting me, and afraid that the snow will make it difficult to walk."
"The wind and snow are terrible. If the military commander is afraid of the wind and cold, he will rest in this village while we go for a walk." A follower said, and Song Xiance let out a laugh: "You think this village is a good place to rest. Huh?" The attendant was startled at first and then narrowed his eyes: "The military advisor said that there are Tatars in this village? He looked at Li Guo again, young master..." Li Guo raised his hand to stop him: "We are waiting for this time We are not here to kill, at least not to kill a few Tatars..." Before he finished speaking, Song Xiance said leisurely: "If you don't kill others, others will kill you."
Li Guo was startled and saw something strange in his eyes. He followed his gaze and saw vague silhouettes of people and horses neighing on the mountain road ahead. Everyone was shocked. What a good guy, we have encountered Tatars before we even entered the mountain!
Li Guo's mind was spinning rapidly as to whether to go or to do it. The wind and snow were too strong at this time. He could only hear the sounds and couldn't tell how many people were on the other side. If it was just a few people, he would do it. If it was a large group of people, he would have to run away quickly.
"Come forward." Song Xiance let out a low roar, shook the reins and spurred his horse forward. Li Guo's heart moved, and he led everyone to follow him. He already understood what Song Xiance was thinking. The snow was falling heavily at this time, and he couldn't see the opponent clearly. On the contrary, the opponent I couldn't see him clearly, and everyone was covered in white like a snowman, so I couldn't guess who the other person was from their clothes.
After walking more than ten steps, he saw six figures in front of them, riding horses and dressed in white. Although they couldn't see their faces clearly, they could still tell that they were soldiers of the Qing Dynasty. Li Guo felt anxious, whether he should do it or not.
If you do it, the opponent has six or seven cavalry, and you must catch them all. Once one of them is gone, he may get stuck in the quagmire. If you don't do it, you may not be able to get through it.
Just when they were hesitating, the other party also noticed them. The first person made a noise and muttered a string of Manchu, which no one could understand. Song Xiance walked in the front and put his hand on his ear to pretend that he couldn't hear clearly. The man on the other side galloped towards him, shouting something, but as soon as he reached the horse, Song Xiance raised his hand and thrust a sword into his throat. Blood spurted out and splashed all over Song Xiance's face.
This sword was fast and accurate. The leader of the Qing soldiers was completely defenseless. He was confused until his throat was sealed with a sword. Although he was killed by a sword, he still sat on his horse and did not fall. Song Xiance was still mumbling and pretending to talk to him.
When Li Guo saw this, he understood clearly. He rode forward and surrounded the dead Qing army, pretending to say something. The wind and snow were so heavy that several Qing soldiers not far away had no idea what was going on. They saw them surrounded.
As he said something, he was curious and came over on horseback. As soon as he reached him, Li Guo and others drew their swords and slashed him.
The Qing soldiers were unprepared, and in the blink of an eye, they were chopped down. Three of them fell under the horse without death, and rolled to escape. Upon seeing this, the entourage jumped off the horse and went to chase and kill. The other three Qing soldiers reacted very quickly, and hurriedly drew their swords to resist several people.
He pulled his horse and fled.
How could Li Guo allow him to escape? He chased after him with his horse, and several of his men followed him. The snow was knee-deep and the horse could not run fast. He was overtaken in the blink of an eye. Several people slashed and killed him with swords, but he did not expect these Qing soldiers.
But they were very brave. Although there were few in number, they resisted vigorously. After fighting for a while, they took the opportunity to escape again, this time they escaped separately into the mountains and forests.
This is the entrance to the mountain road. It is located at the foot of the mountain and the terrain is wide. Although it is densely covered with trees and rocks, it is not dangerous. Several Qing troops rode into the forest and fled, relying on the wind and snow to cover their eyes. They were able to escape very quickly. Li Guo was impatient.
, shouting to everyone to split up and chase after each other, while he stared at Yiqi a few meters ahead and chased after him.
The mountains were covered with dense forests and the snow was deep. The two cavalry were chasing each other but could not run fast. They were always a few steps apart. Li Guo was impatient and threw his knife at the head of the Qing soldier. From the corner of his eye, the Qing soldier lowered his head and flashed.
However, the horse stalled and Li Guo chased him behind him. He jumped up and threw the Qing soldier off his horse. The two of them rolled to the ground, both of them knocked unconscious. The Qing soldier took the opportunity to turn over and tried to escape. Li Guo
Guo had no weapons in his hands, so he casually picked up a stone and threw it at the Qing army.
There was a pop and hit the Qing soldier in the back of the neck, but with a bang, the Qing soldier fell down and blood flowed from the back of his head. Li Guo gasped for breath, picked up his sword, walked over and was about to make a stabbing blow,
The cold light flashed, and the Qing soldier turned over and swung his sword. Li Guo hurriedly avoided it, but he was still a little slow. The cotton coat on his chest was torn open. Fortunately, there was still leather armor inside, and he was lucky enough to escape. When Li Guo was frightened, the Qing soldier
The second knife came in front of his face. Li Guo, who couldn't avoid it, kicked him with his life, and fell heavily on the snow. He rolled over, swung the knife and rushed towards him. The Qing army also reacted quickly.
, he rolled up after being kicked by him, and the two of them fought with swords.
Li Guo was very brave during his whole life, and it was difficult for ordinary people to defeat him with any move. However, he did not expect that the Qing army in front of him was also a ruthless soldier. He was ruthless and fierce, and his strength was amazing. The two of them slashed at each other with their swords in the wind and snow.
, rolled and rolled in the snow, fought dozens of times, but no one could win or lose. Although everyone was covered in glory, no one fell down, but they were all exhausted and panting!
It is said that the Tatars are brave, and the rumors are true. Li Guo murmured in his heart, it is obvious that the Qing army in front of him is a tough soldier, and he is just an ordinary Tatar soldier. It is no wonder that the imperial court has been beaten by the Tatars in recent years.
The situation was so miserable, but they were really brave!
"Come and kill him!" Just when the two of them were inextricably tied up in killing each other and both were exhausted, Li Guo heard a sound not far away. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw three or four of his own men coming, and he shouted.
When the Qing army saw this, they were shocked and ran away. As soon as they could not escape more than ten steps, Li Guo's men rushed over and surrounded him and hacked him to death!
Li Guo sat down in the snow, panting heavily, and did not forget to ask: "Were they all killed?"
"Come back, young master, I haven't missed any of them!" the attendant said, going to subdue him. Li Guo waved his hand feebly, indicating that he wanted to take a rest, and he didn't forget to laugh at himself: "I'm old, and I haven't moved my muscles for a long time.
The boat almost capsized in the sewer just now."
"Young master is in the prime of life and ready to fight. What can I say? These Tatars are indeed troublesome. We have injured three or four of our people..." Several followers talked about what they had just fought.
Li Guo's face became serious after hearing this. These Tatars grew up on horses since they were young. They are good at riding and shooting, and are extremely brave in single combat. In the early years, they had only heard about it, but now that they saw it, they really deserved their reputation.
After a while, Song Xiance came with a few entourage and some captured war horses. He handed Li Guo a leather bag and said, "These should be messengers."
Li Guo took the leather bag and took out a letter from it. It was all written in Manchu and was incomprehensible. He stuffed it in and got on his horse: "It's getting late, we have to take a walk again."
It seems that this fight not only did not disappoint, but also aroused Li Guo's pride. Of course, this is also related to the weather. Although the sound of the fight just now was loud, the wind and snow were also strong. Although there were villages nearby, people could not hear the news.
There was no movement, even if ordinary people heard about it, they didn't have the guts to come and see.
Because of this snowstorm, it brought them a lot of convenience. Otherwise, the fighting just now might have attracted nearby Qing army spies, and they would not have been able to continue strolling toward Jinzhou in a swagger.
Li Guo came here to survey the terrain, but he didn't have to come because the mountainous terrain near Jinzhou had already been clearly mapped by spies. There was a similar terrain map in Tashan Fort, and Li Guo had also seen it.
, he also knew that if you go north along this mountain road, you will find the intersection of Nerv River and Xiaoling River on the other side of the mountain. After crossing the river, you will reach Jinzhou City.
But as a general, when marching and setting up formations, it is most reassuring to go to the scene to take a look. For example, Chang Yu also wanted to come to Songshan Fort to take a look.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons. The other reason is to establish prestige! Li Guo has no soldiers here. Whether it is to attack the city or to stop the enemy, he needs to borrow Ningyuan's soldiers. You can use them, but you have to convince the crowd. There are all soldiers.
The mentality of admiring strong people, the stronger and fiercer you are, the more he will obey you!
But Ning Yuanbing's knowledge of Li Guo was limited to the big leader of the bandit army who surrendered. Whether he was strong or not was just a rumor. Who knows whether he was true or false.
At this time, Li Guo's lone army went deep outside Jinzhou City, which is enough to explain everything! At least it shows that he is very courageous!
So we can't just go back in despair as soon as we arrive at the place. What's more, we were filling a cup in front of the eunuch earlier. After we go for a walk outside Jinzhou City and come back with a dozen Tatar heads, the effect will be... Wow!
Of course, Li Guo also knew that the future was dangerous. He had just encountered a group of Tatars at the beginning, and he didn't know how many more were behind him. But he also had some confidence in his heart. After all, with the cover of this heavy snowstorm, as long as he didn't encounter a large force, he could survive.
