The two of them quickly decided to pass on the order and return to Haizhou along the original route.
Not long after entering the mountain pass, the sound of firecrackers like frying beans erupted from the mountains on both sides.
Zhang Zongling's ambush was finally right.
It was getting late, and the Hou Jinjia soldiers fired back at both sides of the mountain with bows and arrows, but soon found that this was impossible to use.
Huang Taiji ordered: "Don't attack, move forward quickly."
Hou Jin's soldiers fled in panic, but Huang Taiji finally had a clear mind and issued the correct order in time.
Then Jin's pursuers all came on horseback, so they rushed forward regardless.
Although some corpses and horses were thrown away, it was not too big after all. of casualties.
After Hou Jin's soldiers fled far away, Zhang Zongling came out of the woods on the side of the mountain with a gloomy look on his face: "Why the hell did you wait until now?
I can't even see clearly.
Guys, be careful if there are any guys who are still alive.
Let's take care of them first."
Look again."
In fact, even if you can see it clearly, the gains will not be much greater than now.
This is mainly because the firing speed of the fire cannon is low, and the Jiannu horse speed is too high.
The cavalry can only fire two or three times to complete the whole distance.
The guards are moving at high speed.
Cavalry is also difficult to aim at, besides The accuracy rate of the fire blunderbuss was originally low, which restricted the results of the battle.
In the end, after clearing it out, more than 320 heads were obtained in the valley, and more than 100 useful horses were obtained.
However, there is one thing that Zhang Zongling deserves to brag about, and that is The Guardsmen were unscathed.
When Zhang Zongling's troops returned to Tashanpu, the battle situation here was almost cleared up.
A total of more than 480 Jin soldiers were captured, and the Guards also lost 215 people and 85 were seriously injured. , 237 people were slightly injured.
Overall, the exchange ratio between the two was about four to one.
Of course, this is due to the participation of artillery and the final sneak attack.
If we look at the situation of hand-to-hand combat, the exchange ratio should be close to one to one.
Lu Xiangsheng was already very satisfied with the result, because this was a hand-to-hand fight, which did not rely on the advantage of weapons, but on courage and fighting ability.
After everyone rested in Tashanpu for a night, they broke camp and returned to Gaizhou.
As for Yaozhouyi and Li Luoguo on the road, they only sent one banner of cavalry to guard here, and all other troops entered Gaizhou City.
It was already October of the second year of Tianqi.
At this time, Cao Wenzhao sent a messenger to report the situation in Fuzhou, and Cao Wenzhao had also recovered Yongning City.
Now all south of Gaizhou has been occupied by the Ming army.
Lu Xiangsheng ordered Cao Wenzhao to rush to Gaizhou immediately to discuss future actions together.
Then he began to send messengers, one to the general staff on Juehua Island, and the other directly to the capital.
He had some issues for which the emperor had to make the final decision.
In September of the second year of Tianqi, the stars in Guyuan Prefecture, Shaanxi Province fell like rain.
Pingliang, Longde counties, Zhenrong, Pinglu and other places, Magang, Shuangfeng and other fortresses were shaken by earthquakes.
The city walls collapsed more than 7,900 feet, more than 11,800 houses collapsed, and livestock were crushed to death.
More than 16,000 of them killed more than 12,000 men and women.
After the earthquake, Zhang Zhihou, the governor of Shaanxi Province, first concealed the disaster and failed to provide disaster relief.
As a result, he was impeached by the imperial censor.
The emperor was furious and sent Jin Yiwei to arrest him and bring him to the capital for questioning.
Then he decreed that Sun Chuanting, the prefect of Yan'an, should be promoted to the position of left minister of the Ministry of War, and he would patrol Shaanxi.
Several censors thought that Sun Chuanting was promoted too quickly, fearing that he would lose his holy hope due to lack of experience.
Zhu Youxiao said: "I am very relieved that the censor can have something to do.
However, Sun Chuanting did not do what he did when he was in Yan'an Prefecture.

Perhaps you are not very clear about this matter.
Everyone knows about his rejection of the Northern invaders.
At that time, I promoted him to the title of Minister of War, and he stayed in Yan'an Prefecture for two years, cleaning up the fields and increasing the number of soldiers.
You may not be clear about the increase in output.
To put it simply, Yan'an Prefecture, as the poorest prefecture in Shaanxi, has now solved the problem of food for the people, and all the soldiers recruited by Yan'an Prefecture are self-supported.
This year, the Yan'an government has collected all the summer grain.
I believe you all have an idea of whether such officials who are excellent in military and civil affairs can manage Shaanxi well. " Several censors made a big fuss and knelt down to apologize.
After Zhu Youxiao asked them to get up, he said: "You are not guilty.
You are the censor.
You are meant to remind me to pay attention to some things that I may not have noticed.
However, I hope you will not look at a person based on his qualifications, but rather based on his qualifications."
Whether you can do things, whether you can do things, whether you have Judgment of what kind of person he is in terms of illegal activities can determine whether he can be the governor of Shaanxi.
And after he becomes the governor, I will keep an eye on him to see how he is doing.
If he makes a mistake, I will punish him.
Come and report to me immediately.
Only in this way can you fulfill your duty as a censor. " The ministers were stunned when they heard this, and understood that the emperor was also telling them that the emperor did not like to judge a person from some false aspects.
If you want to attack a person, it is best to have some solid evidence.
Zhu Youxiao thought that there was an earthquake in Shandong in February and another earthquake in Shaanxi in September.
According to statistics from the Ministry of Rites, the weather was colder than in previous years.
Like last year, it snowed heavily for more than a month in Zhejiang, Anhui, Hubei, and Hunan, and the Han River was icy.
Strong enough to cross.
He began to consider whether to store some food for emergencies.
Of course Sun Chuanting would order him to plant sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn in various places in Shaanxi, but could he also get some food from other places?
He said to Zhu Yanxi, the Minister of Rites, "Have the tributes from Annan and Champa come?"
Zhu Yanxi replied: "Your Majesty, people from the north and south of Annan are here, and they are also here from Champa."
Zhu Youxiao said: "Tell them, I want them to replace all the tributes next year with rice.
The more, the better.
I will buy it at 20% more at the market price."
Zhu Yanxi said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, according to the rules, we should give gifts in return at least five times the price of the tribute items."
Zhu Youxiao didn't know this, so he asked: "What's the truth?
Isn't it true that we lose every time?"
Fang Congzhe hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, we are a great country in heaven, and we treat the vassals below like this."
It turns out it’s all about saving face, I understand.
Zhu Youxiao said: "Tell them to buy their rice at 20% more than the market price.
Their price is much lower than ours.
At this price, they make a lot of money.
I don't believe they don't want to make this money.
This time the quantity is large." , we can’t afford it at five times the price.”
Ye Xianggao came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have an idea.
We asked them to pay a tribute of one hundred shi of rice.
We can pay them five times the price for these, and then tell them that our court is willing to pay 20% higher than the market price."
The rice is profitable for them, so they will naturally sell it to us.
Since it cannot be considered as tribute, they have nothing to say.
Please ask your Majesty for your judgment."
Zhu Youxiao said happily: "This method is good.

You can save face and dignity.
Let's do it as Ye Gong said
