Chapter 77: Heavy Snow Falling on the Swallows Part 7: Incident at Long'an Temple (Part 2)
Although he was selected as the heir by Emperor Qianlong, although now he has completely changed, he is obviously an abandoned son, and Yongyan will become the real successor without any surprise, but in turn it also shows that he is more capable than Yongyan to achieve Emperor Qianlong's great goal of "sustaining the enemy as much as possible."
Therefore, he is naturally not a fool. In an instant, scenes of lightning have appeared in his mind in recent days.
In the past month, Hudson, the new general who took 10,000 troops to station Zhang Chengxun on the East City Wall, conducted rigorous training for another 10,000 young and strong. Although his combat power is still worrying, he can already implement orders, which is quite good.
If it is normal, not to mention one month, it is unlikely to achieve even three months.
If you can implement orders, it is not a simple cannon fodder, but a cannon fodder like an arm that uses fingers. The energy is more than one level higher!
Then Hudson wrote another book.
"I think the thief is too powerful. If all the regular troops are placed on the city wall and in the hidden soldiers, they will be attacked and killed by unrivaled velocity artillery in an instant, and they will lose a lot of combat power in vain"
"The Qingzhuang Camp is now barely formed an army. It is better to pile them all around the city wall to block the first group of thieves' attacks, and place all the regular troops in the major huts in the city to complete the idea of Your Highness to block the enemy in the city"
"The city blocking war is a small-scale battle, and the large army cannot be used, and the quality of soldiers is more considered. Compared with this, regular troops are much stronger"
Yongyan, Agui agreed to his idea after consideration, but in order to test him, he still asked him to attack Dongbianmen while the night was falling.
The attack lasted for three days, and naturally returned in vain. However, it is gratifying that the trained Youth Camp only lost less than a thousand people!
Yongyan was naturally happy and allowed Hudson to arrange the remaining nine thousand young men around Long'an Temple near Guangqumen.
The ten-mile-long outer city has only two city gates. The East Gate has lost the Dongbian Gate. The Guangqu Gate in the middle must not be lost again!
However, as these three fireworks lit up near Long'an Temple, only one thing is said.
Hudson turned against it!
"Protect the car!"
Yongyan shouted loudly to the sky, and the golden plate with the "supreme relics" in his hand also fell to the ground.
Bright is sober at this time.
"Your Highness, for the sake of this plan, you can only let Xishan Ruijian Camp escort you a bloody road. Hudson has only been in charge of the East City Wall for a month, and only one thousand standard camps have really listened to him. In addition, the young and strong people who were bewitched, there are up to tens of thousands of people"
"Although the young and strong have been trained by him for a month, they are still far from the regular army. His standard camp will definitely not resist the rapid attack of Xishan Ruijian Camp, Tefeiying!"
He was nearly two meters tall and extremely majestic. He was known as the warrior of the former Kurkha tribe (near Hunchun) of the Qing Dynasty, the first of Batulu, and the deputy commander of the Zhengbai Banner, Tefying Ah, quickly flashed out.
"The last one will be here!"
"The three fireworks lit up in the north, east and south of the temple, and it is where Hudson, the dog thief, stationed the Qingzheng Camp. They are close to the city walls, and they may be exposed further west. There must be only a small number of young and Hudson's camp guards in the west."
"If the general is not allowed to fight hard, as long as the rebels in the west are repelled, he will quickly escort His Highness to quickly evacuate from Chongwen Sect. As long as His Highness returns to the inner city smoothly, everything will still be under the control of our army!"
Yongyan also woke up at this time.
"Not good, Hudson, a thief, dared to act like this. It was obviously because he had received the promise from the thief army outside the city. If the thief army attacked the city at this time..."
Mingliang quickly said: "Even if the thief army attacked the city at this time, it would not be possible to take down the entire East City Wall within one hour. As for Dongbianmen, since its fall, the nearby defense has been taken over by the Eight Banners soldiers in the Chongwenmen area of the inner city. It is not easy for them to come from Chongwenmen East Street"
"The situation is extremely urgent now. Your Highness should not delay it. Tefeiying, please quickly lead Xishan Ruijian Camp to escort Your Highness away!"
"Yeah!"
Tefei Yinga solemnly gave Mingliang.
Although Tefei Yinga is also the deputy commander of Zhengbai Banner, he is still a new Manchuria after all. Compared with the Minister of War and the Minister of War, the Chief of the Inlaid Red Banner Mingliang, he is still much worse.
Although Yongyan was anxious, he knew that Mingliang's approach was the only feasible thing now, but he asked again: "Then wait..."
Mingliang smiled and said, "When we arrived here, each of us brought a hundred cavalry, and there were five or six hundred cavalry in total. In order to protect His Highness from evacuation smoothly, I will divide these six hundred cavalry into two, three hundred cavalry breaking through the north of Long'an Temple, and three hundred cavalry breaking through the south, making the rebels confused"
"Hudson's camp is located in the west of Long'an Temple, and it can be repelled by Tefei Ying'a. There are only one spear on both sides of the north and south. Under the assault of my three hundred cavalry, I will definitely be invincible!"
Yongyan nodded after hearing this, "Be careful!"
As he said that, under the escort of Tefeiyinga, he walked towards the temple gate with a group of officials in the inner city.
When Yongyan and others disappeared, the relaxed look on Mingliang's face disappeared immediately. He suddenly grabbed Sun Shiyi and killed him with one knife. His guards also took action at the same time, killing several personal guards of the Central Army Balance Battalion who came with Sun Shiyi!
Zhang Chengxun hurriedly asked, "Sir, why is this? Although Hudson was supported by Sun Shiyi, Sun Shiyi has been stationed in Fahua Temple, and his troops are still separated from me. And he has also come here, so it is impossible for him to rebel."
Mingliang shook his head, "It's urgent, I have to do this in case of precautions. When we break out of the siege, you will take over Fahua Temple and take over the defense of the entire eastern half of the outer city!"
"In this way, you will take three hundred riders to the south, and I will take another three hundred riders to the north!"
"Yeah!"
Not long after, Long'an Temple was empty, and only some monks were left stunned.
Fu Chang'an followed Mingliang. He followed Mingliang to the side of the war horse. He was about to get on the horse, but Mingliang pulled him aside.
"Chang'an, after rushing onto the street later, you rush out of the alley and don't worry about us"
"Why is this? Since Hudson has rebelled, he will definitely block all exits tightly. How could he leave a gap?"
Mingliang shook his head, "I didn't say anything just now. Hudson is so brave. He must have colluded with the Truqin barbarians in the morning. Not only that, it is estimated that someone in Long'an Temple also participated in it."
"You mean that relic..."
"Yes, it's probably fake, so that people from the inner city can come and see it. Now it seems that this is obviously a trap. Hudson's subordinate bidding camp is not scary, but the one who is afraid of Truqin's army also sneaks in!"
"The emperor is still too kind and ruthless. Knowing that Hudson is a figure from a certain sect in Muslim, he did not kill him on the spot to prevent future troubles, but instead recruited him to the capital. Alas, it's really a chess game."
Now Lian Fu Chang'an is also anxious.
If Hudson's Bian Battalion or Qingzhuan Battalion were blocked by him, he would not be afraid at all. He would pass by the three hundred fully armed Manchurian Eight Banners cavalry under their command, but if there were still Truqin troops hidden inside, it would not be necessary.
But no matter what, it is impossible to stay in Long'an Temple and sit and wait for death. There is still a glimmer of life when rushing out. If you stay here, you will have a dead end!
Thinking of this, he quickly got on the horse and was about to rush out of the temple gate with Mingliang...
At this moment, a sound of horse hooves came from afar. In an instant, Yongyan, Abida and others appeared again!
Bingliang's mentality was frightened, and he quickly urged the horse to meet him.
"Your Highness..."
I saw Yongyan's expression was bleak and seemed to be a little shaky. Abida, who was beside him, kept a little clear-headed.
"Mr. Dutong, the situation is very unfavorable to us. A large number of barbarian thieves have appeared in the city"
"Ah?!"
Abida gritted his teeth and said, "I guess it was because Hudson's guy pretended to counterattack Dongbianmen a few days ago. Because it was at night, most of the Truqin army was led in, and the ten thousand young men were stolen and replaced by pillars."
"Ten thousand?!"
Bright is also a bit dizzy at this time.
But he quickly recovered from his calmness.
"Ten thousand young and strong? How is it possible? Do these people all listen to Hudson? How is it possible? How is it possible? I, the Qing Dynasty, have always treated them well, why is this? Why is this!"
After a while, he looked at Abida, "So, all roads have been blocked by barbarians?"
Abida was also very disappointed at this time.
"Yes, many short walls that have just been built have appeared on all roads. The walls of nearby alleys are also full of barbarian soldiers. The firearms of these are fierce. The Xishan Ruijian Camp is full of cavalry, so they can only break through the low walls blocking Guangqumen Street to death."
"Because the bandits also carry light artillery, in order to prevent artillery fire from hurting Your Highness, we can only return first, waiting for Tefeiyinga to break through the low wall before rushing up"
Bright gritted his teeth, "The firepower must be dense near the low wall. Although Tefei Yinga and others are extremely brave, they are also useless places for heroes to attack by firearms. However, the alleys near Long'an Temple are widely distributed. Even if the thief army comes in, it is impossible to fully protect them."
