Chapter 14 Arbitrariness


Although the Jin army never came after them, Zhao Shujiao did not dare to be careless and released the scouts thirty miles away.

When they were approaching Ningyuan, there was no movement from the Hou Jin Army, so they let out a sigh of relief.

He had first sent a message to Ningyuan, asking the Juehua Island navy to prepare to take the Han people to Juehua Island first, and then transport them into the customs by sea.

However, when they reached the beach of Juehua Island, Yuan Chonghuan said , only Fu Ru was allowed to board the ship to Juehua Island, while the other about 30,000 young men went to Ningyuan first, and then returned to Shanhaiguan by land.

Zhao led the teacher and said: "Master Yuan, there is still more than a hundred miles from Ningyuan to Shanhaiguan.

If Jian Nu comes after him, how can these young men with no armor or weapons resist them?"

Yuan Chonghuan said: "We have eight thousand soldiers.

How dare Jiannu chase him?

If he really chases us, then we will kill him personally and make a contribution first."

Zhao Shujiao recalled the battle at Thirteen Mountains and couldn't help but shook his head.

Houjin's white-armored soldiers were really powerful.

If the people from Thirteen Mountains hadn't attacked with bows and arrows from both sides, the outcome would have been uncertain.

He decided to fight for it: "Master Yuan, if the people chasing you are the Han army, there is really no need to worry.

But if the Jiannujia soldiers come to attack, I am afraid that our army will not be able to resist it.

Not only will the young and strong men not be able to help, I'm afraid that On the contrary, it will become a drag.”

Yuan Chonghuan laughed and said: "Don't worry, General Zhao.

It's only a few dozen miles from Ningyuan to Qiantun Guards City.

Once you get to Qiantun, you don't have to worry about building slaves.

Then it will be easy to go to Shanhaiguan via Zhongqiansuo.

We will bring so many by then."

When a young man enters the pass, do you think it will cause such a sensation?

The Holy Heart will be happy.

General Zhao will be a veritable general by then. " Zhao Shujiao blushed, but he always felt a little uneasy.

Qiantun was obviously more than a hundred miles away from Ningyuan, and it would take two or even three days to walk quickly on the road.

If the Jiannu armored soldiers caught up, it would be equivalent to the Thirteen Mountains.

It was all in vain.

But as Yuan Chonghuan hinted, he doesn't even have a formal position, so it's useless to talk about it.

So everyone first came to the beach of Juehua Island.

The navy took all the old and young women to the island, while the soldiers and young men had a good rest.

They were busy until midnight before they finished ferrying everyone.

Zhao Shujiao thought that he should start leaving now, but Yuan Chonghuan ordered him to continue resting and leave after dawn.

After discussing with Li Chengxian and Lu Zhijia, Zhao led Jiao to come to Yuan Chonghuan to get him to agree that the rested soldiers and Qingzhuang should set off overnight.

At least Qingzhuang should be allowed to go first, but unexpectedly the guard said that Master Yuan had already rested and said I was not allowed to disturb him, so I didn't dare to report it.

The three of them were filled with resentment, but had no choice but to go back angrily.

The next morning, more than 38,000 people marched to Shanhaiguan together.

When they reached the center right post, the scouts came to report that Hou Jin's army was chasing them.

Yuan Chonghuan hurriedly asked loudly: "How many people are there?"

The scout replied: "There are about five thousand people, and the flag is decorated with a red flag."

Yuan Chonghuan felt relieved and said: "Come on, a mere five thousand Jiannu slaves dare to chase after 38,000 of us.

Such meritorious service is really delivered to us.

All generals, station here and kill the Jiannu slaves."

It’s a waste of money.”

Zhao led the teacher hurriedly forward and said: "Master Yuan, why not let Qingzhuang go first, and we will resist from behind, lest Qingzhuang disrupt our army's formation."

Yuan Chonghuan scolded: "Thirteen Mountains and Jiannu have been fighting for so long, how can we treat them as ordinary Qingzhuang?

There are so many of us, seven of us can kill one, and we still can't win.

Go and rest."

Li Chengxian and Lu Zhijia also came to persuade Yuan Chonghuan to let Qingzhuang go first, leaving at most only some soldiers and armor to help the Ming army.

Yuan Chonghuan didn't listen at all: "I have never heard of an example where you can't win with more people, but you can win with fewer people.

If you are afraid, just leave first.

I will stand in the way here alone."

Zhao Lingjiao saw that this was not the case, so he suggested: "Master Yuan, not far ahead is Heizhuangwo Fort.

The walls there are much better than those in Zhongyousuo, and the place is much larger.

Why don't we go to Heizhuangwo Fort?

Be defensive."

Yuan Chonghuan said: "The main road on the right side of the center cannot be more dilapidated than the Heizhuang Fort.

Let's stay here.

We have many people and Jiannu will not dare to attack.

In the end, we will have to retreat."

So the army marched into the Zhongyou Suo.

A lot of the walls of the Zhongyou Suo were destroyed during Xiong Tingbi's last retreat, so they now had no defensive function at all.

The low wall foundations only gave the soldiers an illusory sense of security.

Zhao was worried, so he called two servants and asked them to ride quickly to Shanhaiguan, report the situation to Wang Jinglue, and ask him to send reinforcements as soon as possible.

After Li Yongfang was defeated, he fled back to Guangning.

Hou Jin was transporting supplies from Guangning and the surrounding forts, and Yue Tuo was stationed here personally with a red flag.

As soon as Li Yongfang met, he exaggerated the number of Ming troops to more than 10,000, with bright armor and sophisticated weapons.

He fought hard to escape, but Ah Qiusang was unfortunately killed.

Yue Tuo listened to him quietly and asked: "Are they soldiers from the Beijing camp or Shanhaiguan soldiers?"

Li Yongfang hesitated and said: "It should be the soldiers of Shanhaiguan."

Last time Du Du was beaten by the Beijing camp and lost his troops.

Now Hou Jin's combat power against the Beijing camp is estimated to have been greatly improved, but Li Yongfang knew that Yue Tuo would catch up with him.

I knew it wasn't Jingying, so I still didn't dare to lie.

Yue Tuo glanced at him, snorted softly and said: "Since it's not the Beijing camp, let's catch up.

I'll send twelve Niu Lu here, and you'll send three thousand soldiers.

We'll set off after dinner. " Later, the Jin army finally caught up with the Ming army near the Zhongyou Fortress.

Yue Tuo couldn't help laughing when he saw the Ming army in the dilapidated city wall.

Li Yongfang stepped forward and said, "I don't know why Lord Beile is laughing."

When Yue Tuo heard this, he laughed again and said: "This Ming army general is interesting.

Does he still want to defend such a city?

There are so many civilians crowded in the city, which is just a living target for us.

It's funny, it's so funny. , let me laugh again.”

After he finished laughing, he gave the order.

Hou Jinjia soldiers, 1,500 men, and Yu Ding, 1,000 men, dismounted and divided into two groups with the Han army.

One group approached from the east, and the other group went to the west to prevent them from escaping.

Later, when the Jin army changed formations, their formations were scattered.

Zhao Lijiao and Li Chengxian asked to lead troops to attack, but Yuan Chonghuan refused without hesitation: "When Jiannu gets closer, everyone will rush out together at fifty steps and win in one battle." , wouldn’t it be nice?”

When the Hou Jin army was about eighty steps away from the city wall, they stopped and started shooting arrows.

They used projectiles.

There were many people in the city, and every arrow could hit someone.

For a while, there were screams in the city.

The young men were frightened, many were shouting, and the morale of the soldiers was already showing signs of instability.

Zhao was impatient and requested to fight again.

Yuan Chonghuan guessed that Jiannu would not be able to get within the fifty steps specified by him, so he nodded and agreed: "You can lead two thousand soldiers to attack first
