After the city gate opened, Li Yuan took the lead and came to the outside of the city gate first. More than a hundred people behind him also came outside the city gate and put up a posture to prevent possible conflicts. They are all familiar with this trick.
, so they quickly guarded the city gate behind them. Moreover, their formation was also very tight.
Although Li Yuanren is greedy for money, he still has some skills. His more than 100 people are his elite soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of these 100 people cannot be underestimated. If someone wants to force his way through, it will not be that easy.
Once they are blocked by them, the people in the city will immediately come to support, and Li Yuan has also given an order not to worry about them if necessary and just close the city gate.
Li Yuan had just walked out of the city gate, and the soldiers behind him had just set up their positions when they saw a man wearing silk and satin, who looked like a dark-skinned shopkeeper, walking out of the caravan.
The shopkeeper came to Li Yuan's side, nodded and bowed and said to him: "Master, we are businessmen coming back from the north, and we have to trouble you this time." After saying this, he gave him a dozen or so taels.
A heavy gold ingot was stuffed into Li Yuan's hand.
Li Yuan glanced at his eyes and saw a yellow light appearing in his hand, and then his hand sank. Li Yuan understood what it was. He was used to this kind of thing, but getting other people's gold would be a waste.
Sorry for being too tough.
So Li Yuan asked in a kind manner: "Is the harvest good for this export? What's going on in the north recently?"
The man who looked like a shopkeeper said: "Thanks to you, Sir, we have had a pretty good harvest this time. We have made a few taels of silver, and we have lived up to our boss's trust. Now the Tatars have made a mess in the north, so for us in the Central Plains,
The goods are more desired, so we did more sales this time."
Li Yuan didn't want to talk nonsense with him. He just wanted to finish this matter as soon as possible so that he could wait for the next wave, so he said directly: "You still understand the rules, but you need me to explain it to you. Finish it as soon as possible."
Let’s relax early.”
The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly and said: "My lord, how can we not understand these rules as we often come and go? A cart of ten taels of silver will never be less."
After the shopkeeper said this, he waved to the back, and immediately two boys came over carrying a small wooden box.
The shopkeeper went over and opened the wooden box. There were fifteen silver ingots neatly arranged inside.
When Li Yuan saw these silver ingots, he immediately said with a smile: "Since you all know the rules, I won't talk nonsense anymore. Next time I come to Gubeikou, I will treat you to dinner."
After Li Yuan finished speaking, he waved to the soldiers behind him, and several soldiers came up to inspect their goods. This was also the rule set by Li Yuan. All goods entering and leaving through his gate must be inspected.
When the shopkeeper saw this situation, he felt panicked, but he immediately calmed down. He took a few steps forward and came to Li Yuan's side. He took out another ingot of gold from his arms and stuffed it secretly.
He put it into Li Yuan's hands and said: "Sir, the goods we bought this time are relatively expensive. We don't have to do this if we come and go frequently. If something is damaged, I won't be able to explain it to the owner when I go back. Then we will
If the boss takes the blame, you will also have to deal with it."
Li Yuan weighed the gold in his hand. This is another ten taels. The bribes from these people are considered his personal and will not be handed over. He takes people's money to eliminate disasters. Since he accepted his bribes, he will do it this time.
Open some convenient doors for him.
So Li Yuan said to the soldiers around him: "These are regular customers. There is no need to check anymore. Let them pass." After hearing Li Yuan's order, these soldiers immediately opened the road and turned to the city gate.
Get out of the way.
After thanking the shopkeeper profusely, he led the convoy towards the city gate. As soon as they arrived at the city gate, the shopkeeper in front of them suddenly shouted: "If you don't do it yet, we'll wait until later."
So in this caravan of more than a hundred people, a sheep suddenly turned into a ferocious beast. These people took out various weapons from the vehicles beside them and chopped them off like soldiers around them. But the shopkeeper took out
Pour a can of kerosene on one of the vehicles, then take out a firebrand and light the vehicle on fire. You will have a thick smoke floating into the sky.
When Li Yuan saw this situation, what was unclear about him? So he drew his scimitar and sent someone to report the news to the city, where he chopped down the Tatars beside him.
Besides, Battle in the woods five miles away saw that the sun was getting higher and higher, but there was no smoke rising from Gubeikou. He was getting more and more anxious on his horse. Suddenly, the soldier beside him pointed at Gubeikou and said: "General, look at it.
There is smoke."
Battle raised his head and looked forward, and sure enough, there was smoke rising from the direction of Gubeikou. Battle couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately ordered: "Everyone get on your horse and follow me."
After saying this, he immediately got on his horse and rushed forward. The cavalry behind him also followed him and galloped towards Gubeikou.
At this time, at the Gubeikou City Gate, the Tatars were still occupying the gate position and resisting desperately. Li Yuan, with more than a hundred soldiers under his command, and a steady stream of soldiers arriving, had compressed them into a small area.
Just when Li Yuan thought victory was in sight, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. When Li Yuan looked back, he immediately felt like death, and saw that today's cavalry behind him had arrived quickly. Li Yuan saw this situation and knew, I'm afraid
He had no time to close the city gate. It seemed that he had fallen into the Tatars' trick. In this situation, he could only fight to the death. Either drive the Tatars out of Gubeikou, or he would die in the battle.
Here, otherwise with the mistakes he made this time, his family will definitely be implicated.
After thinking about this, Li Yuan put aside other distracting thoughts. He led the soldiers in Gubeikou and fought desperately in the hope of closing the city gate before the cavalry arrived. But this thought was completely in vain. The cavalry led by Battelle soon approached the city gate.
, Li Yuan saw the despair on Barthel's face, he turned around and rushed towards Barthel with his scimitar in hand.
Li Yuan's current thought is to capture the thief first and capture the king first. As long as he kills the leading general, the other soldiers will inevitably disperse. In this way, he may be able to keep Gubeikou intact.
When Battle saw someone rushing toward him, he raised his iron spear and stabbed forward. At this time, Li Yuan was already as strong as a madman. He didn't care about the incoming iron spear and swung his knife to strike Battle's waist.
How could Battelle make him achieve his wish? The iron gun turned slightly and collided with Li Yuan's waist knife. Li Yuan was able to become the guard Qianhu of Gubeikou. In addition to his own ability to play both sides, his own kung fu was also his.
The capital to stand on.
Since he is now at a disadvantage when using his sword with his feet, Battle did not knock his sword away. This shows that Li Yuan also has some courage.
Seeing that Battelle had not killed Li Yuan, he swung his iron spear and swept it across Li Yuan's waist. Li Yuan quickly raised his sword to parry. But Battelle used his power to use the spear again. Although Li Yuan resisted hard, he still swept him away this time.
Nearly ten feet away, when Battelle saw Li Yuan lying on the ground, he immediately urged his horse forward and was about to kill Li Yuan with one shot. At the last moment, Li Yuan suddenly threw his knife straight at Battelle. Battelle
He was caught off guard and was struck by the knife right across his waist. Blood immediately started to flow from Barter's waist.
But Battelle was also brave. He gritted his teeth and shot Li Yuan to death.
After Bater killed Li Yuan, he opened his armor to look at his wounds. Although Zhijian had a deep wound, it was nothing serious.
So Battle hastily bandaged it with clothes, led the cavalry into the city gate, and massacred the soldiers at the gate. After a while, he completely controlled the city gate, although there were still soldiers coming from far away in the city.
He wanted to recapture the city gate, but Battle led his cavalry near the city gate, galloping back and forth. He kept taking advantage of the cavalry to attack and kill the infantry who came to support him.
At this moment, thunder broke out outside Gubeikou. It turned out that Alsileng Khan came with a large group of cavalry for reinforcements. Seeing this situation, the soldiers in the city were already desperate, so they dropped their swords and guns.
Scattered and fled.
When Battle saw that the enemy had fled, he did not risk an attack but instead guarded the city gate. When Alslenk Khan arrived at the city gate with his soldiers, Battle had already cleaned up the area around the city gate, allowing the army to pass unimpeded.
As soon as Alsileng Khan saw Barter, he said loudly: "Bartel, you have done great service today. When you go back, I will reward you with a hundred beauties from the Central Plains." After saying this, he burst into laughter.
Alsileng Khan led his army into Gubeikou and began to clean the inside of Gubeikou. Alsileng Khan believed that Gubeikou was an important passage for him to travel, and there must not be a single Han person there. So he ordered an inhumane massacre at Gubeikou.
.
There are no ordinary residents living in Gubeikou. The people here are the family members of Gubeikou soldiers. Except for young women, all of them were killed. On this day, the Tatars killed more than 3,000 innocent people, and more than 1,000 more.
Han women became military prostitutes.
While Alsileng Khan was reorganizing his retreat at Gubeikou, the defeated troops at Gubeikou had already arrived at Miyun.
As soon as Miyun garrison Gu Xu received the news from his men, he was frightened. On the one hand, he gathered his troops and closed the gate of Miyun City. On the other hand, he sent a fast horse to report to the capital, requesting reinforcements.
Alsileng Khan did not delay much at Gubeikou. After he cleared Gubeikou and ensured the escape route, he led the army straight to Miyun. It only took one day to reach Miyun. After arriving at Miyun, he immediately
Then the dense clouds surrounded him.
Miyun guard Gu Xu stood on the top of the city and shuddered when he saw this situation. It seemed to him that there were at least 200,000 to 300,000 Tatars outside, and they were all strong and tough. Although his men were considered elite,
But to be honest, there is still some gap compared to the Tatars in the city.
Now the only thing facing Gu Xu was to stick to one road and hope that the imperial court would send reinforcements before the Tatars broke through the Miyun.
On the second day after he besieged Miyun, Alslen Khan opened the camp gates and sent his army, pushing various siege equipment to the Miyun city wall.
Arsleng Khan still didn't want his army to suffer too much loss in the siege station. After all, they were just a people on horseback and were not good at sieges. If they wanted to force a siege, they would suffer heavy losses.
So he came to the front of the battle and prepared to talk to the general defending Miyun, hoping to persuade him to open the city and surrender, so as to reduce his losses.
Alsileng Khan is so afraid of attacking the city now because he was provoked by Jia Ke. I think back then, he led tens of thousands of troops to completely siege Kaiping Town. He suffered heavy losses after attacking for several months, but he did not break through Kaiping Town. This is a great achievement for him.
The impression left was very deep. Therefore, in subsequent wars, he tried to avoid siege warfare.
