Everyone was silent for a while, then Qin Nan stood up and said: "Your Highness, Duke Liang, I'm here to charge into the battle. Daming has provided food for my family, and Your Highness has been so kind to my family. Today is the time for my family to repay Your Highness!"
Qin Song rushed out and said, "Brother!" Then he choked and collapsed to the ground.
Qin Nan dismounted, walked up to Qin Song, touched his head, and said, "Why are you crying? When Mr. Qi sometimes asked us to study, His Highness once said: 'It is the honor of a soldier to shroud a general in horse leather on the external battlefield.
.'Although I am not a general, I am still fighting the Mongols."
"When we were born, the Mongols had already been driven out of the Central Plains, but I heard from my father all the things the Mongols did when they were in the Central Plains."
Qin Song didn't speak, just shed tears.
Guards Luo Bingzhong, Mao Zhong and others also stood up and said, "I'm here to join the battle too! Today is the time for me to repay His Highness for your kindness!"
Yunxi's tears fell down all of a sudden. He choked with sobs, but couldn't speak. These are his closest guards!
Yunxi sat on the horse and sobbed. Lan Zhen calmly selected the people who would rush into the battle. A total of thirty-seven guards were selected. Then Lan Zhen selected sixty-three more soldiers, making up a hundred people, and then sent out
Everyone brought some food with them, and asked these people to dismount and eat something. Fortunately, it was still dark, so the Mongolians a mile away could not see clearly, but they did not move even slightly when they saw that they were not moving; after all,
They also ran all night and had to protect their horsepower.
Then Lan Zhen dismounted and knelt in front of Yunxi and said: "Your Highness, I failed to protect you tonight and put Your Highness in such danger. I deserve death. I will lead my personal entourage and two hundred soldiers to guard Your Highness's retreat!"
Before Yunxi could speak, Lan Lian had already rushed out and said to Lan Zhen: "Brother! You can't be the rear! The only one who can command this team now is you." Then he knelt down on the ground and said to Yunxi: "Your Highness
, I, the Lan family, did not protect me well and deserve death, so let me take command of the rear."
Yunxi was speechless at this time. He just sat on the horse and cried. What happened tonight had such a great impact on him that he could no longer make any choice. As the highest-ranking official in the East Palace, Guo Zhenmomo had been
Tears washed away the gray on his face and turned it into a dirty face, and said: "Dong Liang, you are the only one who can command the people here now. You must not leave the queen behind."
Cao Xing also advised: "Brother Lan, you can't cut off the queen, I will cut off the queen."
Guo Wei said: "Let me stay. My wife already has a son. Mr. Lan, you don't have a son yet. You have to go back alive."
Lan Lian said: "Don't fight anymore. I once served as a soldier in Jinwu's vanguard and I am familiar with them. Let me cut off the rear!"
Others wanted to talk again, Lan Lian said: "There is no time to argue," he pointed at Qin Nan and the others: "The people rushing to the battle have finished their meal. Although they haven't heard more hoofbeats from behind, they still have something to say.
We must rush into battle immediately."
Others also knew that Lan Lian was right, and some argued with Lan Lian for a few more words, but there was no dispute. Finally, Lan Zhen said with tears: "Then you will be the commander of the rear guard."
At this time, the one hundred soldiers headed by Qin Nan had finished eating the remaining food and had recovered a little strength. I don't know who was still tied up with several bottles of wine on the horse, so Lan Zhen ordered to give all the soldiers a kettle.
The people rushing into the battle gave them some wine to drink.
Qin Nan was the first to finish the wine, then threw the kettle on the ground and shouted: "I, Qin Nan, took the first step today! If there is an afterlife, let me serve as a bodyguard for His Highness."
The others also did the same as him, finished their wine and left the kettle on the ground, and then shouted: "I will serve your Highness again in the next life!"
Then Qin Nan and others got on their horses and rushed towards the Mongolian army ahead.
Ye Xiantu Gan, who was following the Ming army, said to the people next to him: "They have been at the front for a stick of incense. It seems that they are in a dilemma now and don't know what to do."
The people next to him complimented: "There are pursuers in front, interceptors in the back, and rivers on the left and right. They can't escape even if they have wings. Prince, why don't you attack them now?"
Ye Xian Tu Gan said: "What do you know! First, the five thousand warriors behind have not come yet, and we only have more than a thousand people, so we may not be able to defeat them; second, the sky is so dark now, if the Nanman in front
If the princes are scattered, it may not guarantee that no one can escape. If the Nanman prince escapes, wouldn't all the previous efforts be wasted? Why do we only have more than 500 people here now? Not many warriors have been sent out to search for the scattered Nanman.
"
The person next to him asked again: "Then why didn't the Nanmanzi spread out and escape separately?"
Ye Xiantugan replied: "If we separate and escape, although someone will definitely be able to escape, it may not be the prince of the Nanmanzi! The rule of the Nanmanzi court is that if the prince of the Nanmanzi dies here or is captured by us,
Anyone else who escapes will face a dead end, so they will protect the Southern Barbarian Crown Prince to the death."
After he said this clearly, he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats from behind. He turned around and saw a man riding a horse and stopped beside him. Xian Tugan also saw clearly that the man was Baotai's personal attendant, so he asked: "Baotai
Why haven’t the troops under Taiwan’s command arrived yet?”
The man said: "Prince, the Nanbarbarians from Yanghe Fort came down to stop the warriors led by Master Baitai. Although they failed to kill a few of us, they forced us to stop for a while. After a while, Master Baotai can lead
People come here."
Just as Ye Xiantu Gan was about to speak, the attendant next to him said: "Prince, the Nanmanzi are moving!"
Yexian Tugan looked back and saw that the entire Ming army was dispatched and rushed forward.
Yexian Tugan cursed loudly: "Damn it, I can't wait until morning!" Then he turned around and said: "You ride back immediately and tell the soldiers at the base to arrive immediately!" Then he shouted: "Warrior
Hey, the Nanbarbarians are going to run, hurry up and charge at me!" Then he led the Mongolian soldiers and charged forward.
The death squads led by Qin Nan rushed towards the Mongolian army.
The Mongolians on the opposite side were obviously very dissatisfied with staying here, but they did not dare to disobey Ye Xiantugan's order. Now that the Ming army took the initiative to attack, they could finally let go and fight the Ming army, and all the Mongolian soldiers also gave way.
The horse begins to charge.
Qin Nan took the lead and met the Mongolian soldiers rushing over. At the moment when the two horses crossed each other, Qin Nan swung his sword to attack the Mongolian soldiers;
The knives touched each other, and then Qin Nan withdrew the knife and slashed at the next Mongolian soldier who came over.
The Mongolian soldier did not expect Qin Nan to react so quickly. He tried to change the direction of his knife in a hurry and it was too late. Qin Nan chopped off his horse with a knife and was trampled to death by the horse's hoof.
Qin Nan and his group were very brave. Everyone showed their greatest strength and most exquisite martial arts, because they knew that this was their last stage. The Mongolians should not be mentally prepared, and they were suddenly attacked by Qin Nan
They created a gap. The Mongolian soldiers suffered more than 80 casualties, and Qin Nan and others also suffered more than 20 casualties.
Then Qin Nan and the others, who had already passed through the Mongolian soldiers, turned their horses and charged towards the Mongolian soldiers again. The Ming army led by Lan Zhen behind them also rushed up.
Although there are still more Mongolian soldiers between the two Ming armies than the total number of Ming armies, Lundulhui, the leader of the Mongolian soldiers commanding in the middle, seems to have remembered that he followed Timur (Wang Baobao) to fight the Ming army.
After being beaten so badly, I couldn't help but tremble.
Qin Nan and the others turned around and fought again. This time, because the charging distance between the horses of both sides was not long, they rushed together and did not separate again and fought together.
Lan Zhen also asked Cao Xing to rush forward with some soldiers to help out, but Yunxi watched the soldiers fighting in front under tight protection!
Qin Nan and the others fought the Mongolian soldiers with the intention of dying. Even if they were slashed by the Mongolian soldiers' swords, they had to pull a cushion on their backs before dying. Yunxi saw with his own eyes that a guard who seemed to be Luo Bingzhong was killed by a
The Mongolian soldier cut off his left shoulder with one knife, but he still cut off the Mongolian soldier's head with the knife with his right hand!
At this time, Lan Zhen said in a tearful tone: "Your Highness, Qin Nan and the others have already carved a way out, let's rush over immediately." Yunxi cried and followed Lan Zhen through the way out.
When Yunxi and others passed by, Qin Nan and others who were still alive let out a sigh of relief. At this time, only a dozen of them were still alive, but they were not afraid and still fought with the Mongolian soldiers.
But what is coming will always come. Qin Nan no longer has the strength to lift his sword. He took out an arrow and seemed to want to use the sharp arrowhead to pierce the Mongolian soldier in front of him. The Mongolian soldier dodged his right hand and
Then she clamped her left arm towards his neck.
Qin Nan immediately guessed that the Mongolian soldier wanted to capture him. Qin Nan would never allow himself to be captured! He didn't know where the strength came from, he opened his mouth and bit the Mongolian soldier's arm. The Mongolian soldier felt pain and swung the knife in his right hand.
He came over and inserted it into Qin Nan's stomach. But Qin Nan still bit the Mongolian soldier's arm. He didn't fall off his horse until he bit off a piece of meat from the Mongolian soldier's arm.
A Mongolian soldier said to their leader Lundur Hui: "Are you chasing me?"
Lundur Hui spat and said: "What a fool! One hundred Ming troops killed more than four hundred of us, and these are all people from our Zuo Banner! Go back and help Mr. Tugan clean up what's left behind
Those southern barbarians." As he said that, he turned his horse's head and headed east.
