Chapter 147 Come here, the prince jumped into the river! (Please give me a monthly ticket, please subscribe)
When black smoke and firelight rose above Fushun County, Prince An, the general of the Qing Dynasty, Pingkou, Prince An, was not completely wiped out!
If you are beaten to the point where there is no one left, the entire army will be wiped out. There are still more than a thousand and hundreds of Eight Banners soldiers around Yue Le. How can this be considered annihilated?
However, these thousands and hundreds of Eight Banners soldiers were in a very difficult situation. In order to reduce the load on their war horses so that they could run faster, they had already thrown away their guns, helmets, cloth armor, large weapons, and other miscellaneous things. Each of them just carried a waist knife, bow and arrow, dry food, wearing a short jacket, and rode a horse barely, running for life.
It is no exaggeration to say that since Nurhaci rebelled with his thirteenth pair of armor, these Eight Banners soldiers (Jianzhou Jurchens) have not been in a very embarrassing situation!
When Nurhaci raised his army, he had thirteen pairs of armor. Now Yue Le and others are out of armor, and they all run away with their bare arms, which is really embarrassing!
Yue Le, who had been fighting for the rest of his life, was no longer ashamed to see people. As he escaped along the way, he lost his mind at the command. Fei Yanggu was in command. He was the one who asked everyone to throw away their armor and luggage so that they could escape with light clothes.
Now this big lord is following Yue Le tightly on his horse with his bare shirt. He has to watch the prince tightly! He is Yue Le's subordinate and must protect the prince. As for whether Yue Le will be angry after returning to Beijing, he will not care.
But now he must make sure that Yue Le will not let Wu Sangui's people catch the living, nor will Yue Le end up with "passing on Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan" - it is OK to spread the word elsewhere, but Wu Sangui cannot let Yue Le take Yue Le's head to show off.
However, it is a bit difficult to be thorough in Bao Yuele!
Because Wu Sangui's cavalry chased him very close, more than a thousand bamboo lances were biting Yue Le, Fei Yanggu and others, and Fei Yanggu tried every means but failed to get rid of them.
What's even more dangerous is that Yue Le, Fei Yanggu and others have been driven to the edge of the Tuojiang River by Wu soldiers. The water in the Tuojiang River is deep and urgent. Fei Yanggu is confident to swim. Yue Le and their men seem to have little confidence in their water, so they dare not jump into the river to swim, so they have to continue running along the Tuojiang River. When they are trapped and have not yet thrown away the pursuers behind them, they have run to a dilapidated town that has been abandoned for many years.
"Prince, there is a small town in front of you. It should be a town. Let's go in and take a breath first!" Fei Yanggu said loudly to Yue Le, who was running for his life with his head covering.
Yue Le looked up and saw that there was indeed a small town with a low wall in front of him, right by the Tuojiang River. It looked quite big, but there was no people, and he looked completely abandoned. At this time, he was a little tired, and he could feel that the war horse under his crotch was getting less and less energetic. If he didn't take a break and turned around and exhausted the horse to death, it would be really over.
"Okay, then go to the city to take a breath first." Yue Le paused and said, "This small town should be a town, and there should be many houses inside. When I came to Sichuan with Lao Su (Haoge) back then, I saw many such towns being slaughtered. It's a sin!"
"Yes! It's all Zhang Xianzhong's fault!" Fei Yang said, "But the current situation in Sichuan is also beneficial to us. We only need to learn Sima Yi's method, in Shaanxi, deep ditches and high acres in Ganzhou, and block Wu Sangui from going north. With the current manpower and material resources of Sichuan, even if Zhuge, a surnamed Wu, can only be blocked in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan!"
Yue Le nodded, "As long as Prince Shuncheng can bring Fushun's army back to Baoning, then I, the Qing Dynasty, can still survive the disaster in front of me." He paused, "Fei Yanggu, please send someone to search and see if there is any useful wood. Let's find a way to build a few wooden rafts, so it will be easier to cross the river."
"Don't worry, Prince, I'll send someone to do it." As he said that, Fei Yanggu waved his arms at the Eight Banners soldiers behind him and pointed to the town in front of him, "Come with me and go to the city to rest!"
"Yeah!"
These Eight Banners soldiers who followed Yue Le and Fei Yanggu's escape were already exhausted. Now they heard that they could go to the city to rest and shouted "Ye" almost cheered.
A large group of people soon poured into the small town.
Although the city is small, there are still walls and gate holes that can resist the pursuit.
The Wu Junzhu Lancers who were pursuing looked a little tired, so they did not launch an attack, but dismounted outside the town to rest.
It seems that they are not in a hurry, but they just don’t know if they are waiting for subsequent reinforcements?
After arranging a few "Bare-Shirt Eight Banners" to guard the city gate, Yue Le and Fei Yanggu rode into the town together. As expected, there were no people in the town. There were collapsed or fire-fried buildings everywhere. Various green plants had spread to every corner, and they were about to swallow the entire town. In the center of the town, there was an open space paved with bluestone slabs that had not yet covered the various plants. Yue Le and Fei Yanggu got off there, and a royal guard gave them some dry food and drinking water. The two were really hungry. After they took it, they started to eat and drink.
After filling their stomachs, Yue Le and Fei Yanggu stood up and began to check in the abandoned town. After a while, they had already passed by the town and arrived at the riverside pier north of the town. It turned out that the town was not protected by walls on all sides, and the side close to the Tuojiang River did not have walls, but there was a long row of abandoned piers.
There is also a small wharf on the other side of the Tuojiang River, and two small boats are parked on the wharf!
"There is a boat!" Fei Yanggu shouted in surprise.
"Where did the boat come from? Could it be..." Yue Le felt a little strange and looked around while talking to himself.
Suddenly, he seemed to see something and got stuck there and couldn't say anything.
"Prince, what's wrong with you?" Fei Yanggu asked with concern.
"There, there" Prince An Yue Le raised his hand and pointed at the black smoke rising from the sky ahead, "That is the direction of Fushun County. Something happened in Fushun County!"
"No, it's not right?" Fei Yanggu's heart skipped a beat. "The Prince Shuncheng has 20,000 elite soldiers, Rongxi and Tuojiang natural dangers, so he can retreat safely. By the way, the black smoke must be the Prince Shuncheng burned the city and retreated."
"Impossible," Prince An shook his head repeatedly, his face as if he was dead, "I retreated, what city would it burn? It was a dilapidated empty city with few people. Who cares whether it was burned or not? Something must have happened in Fushun County, maybe Wu Sangui's soldiers have already."
As soon as he said this, a sound of horse hooves came from his ears, and then a scream of anger: "Prince, Deputy Chief, something is wrong! The reinforcements of the thief arrived. There were one or two thousand infantry, and two cannons."
"What?" Fei Yanggu was shocked, "Why did it come so quickly?"
"Deputy Chief, Bei Yi doesn't know why they came so quickly." The guard shook his head, "You and the prince, come up with an idea, the thief will attack you soon!"
"Boom! Boom!"
Really fast!
As soon as the guard finished speaking, Wu Bing outside the city was already firing fire!
Fei Yanggu turned around and said to Yue Le with a sad look on his face: "Prince, I will take people to take over for a while. Please hurry up and cross the river!"
Yue Le's face was ashamed, with an expression of rest for everything, and said nothing, but just watched Fei Yanggu run towards the south gate of the town with a knife. When Fei Yanggu walked away, he sighed, then turned around, knelt down to the northeast, kowtowed three times, cried, and whispered: "Your Majesty, my servant Yue Le is sorry for you, I am sorry for the Qing Dynasty."
After saying this, Yue Le suddenly stood up and rushed into the river water outside the pier. With a thump, he plunged into the Tuojiang River.
This scared the two guards of the royal palace who were looking at him and shouted: "Come on, the prince has jumped into the river!"
The two royal guards were also good at water. After shouting for a few times, they took off their jackets and thumped into the ground. They tried their best to "draw" (dog-pad swimming posture) that was fluttering in the river. They swam to Yue Le and grabbed Yue Le's jacket. But Yue Le really wanted to be a drowning ghost at this moment, and they struggled to refuse to go back with them. The water quality of these two royal guards was obviously not as good as Yue Le, and they could not get Yue Le back at all. As a result, the three of them drifted along the water to the middle of the river.
Now the two guards who went to rescue Yuele were completely panicked. Their water quality was not very good. They were okay to deal with the small rivers and streams in the north. Now they were in the big rivers and rivers in Sichuan. They also wanted to catch a bad prince who was determined to drown. The water quality was better than the two of them. What should we do?
Just when I was anxious, a small boat suddenly came on the water, and there was a shouting on the boat: "Don't panic, don't panic, grab the bamboo pole, I'll catch you up!"
The two guards quickly looked at the sound and found that a small boat had arrived in front of them at some point. There were only three people on the boat, two of them rowing, and a shirtless strong man was shouting with a long bamboo pole in his hand. Both guards knew the strong man, and it was Wang Zhongxiao who helped the little emperor drive away the Ao Taishi.
The two guards quickly shouted: "Guard Wang, the prince has fallen into the water! Save the prince quickly!"
"What? Prince? Which prince?" Wang Zhongxiao was also shocked when he heard this.
He was actually waiting here on purpose to save people - he was a little guilty now! He cheated so many Kang Mazi! Kang Mazi was so deep in mind that he would definitely think that there was a spy inside him! Now, if you get a little back, you can wash away most of the suspicion.
But he never expected that the first time he took action to be a charity, he caught a prince who committed suicide by jumping into the water. He didn't know who this prince was? Could it be Yue Le?
"It's Prince An! It's Prince An, please save the prince quickly. The prince is almost out of reach!"
All are drowning soon?
Wang Zhongxiao was shocked. Before he could react, the kiss who was rowing him at the back had already opened his throat and shouted: "Guard Wang, please save the prince quickly, please hold on for a while, and Guard Wang will come to save you immediately!"
This guy is good!
However, Wang Zhongxiao could not be a villain at this time, and it was good to pick up Yue Le. With this "credit", Kang Mazi could not suspect that he had colluded with Wu Sangui.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhongxiao threw down the bamboo pole and jumped into the Tuojiang River. His water quality was much better than those two guards! Yue Le struggled in the water for a while and couldn't struggle anymore, so it was easy to be caught by Wang Zhongxiao.
When Yue Le was working together to catch the small wooden boat by Wang Zhongxiao, he had already thought about it and didn't want to die for the time being. He also thought of Fei Yanggu, so he coughed (choked on the water) while saying to Wang Zhongxiao, "Hurry, go and save the town on the south bank of Fei Yanggu Tuojiang River. There are more than a thousand Eight Banners children in the town on the south bank of Fei Yanggu, and the place will be broken by the thief!"
Wang Zhongxiao turned his head and looked at Anxi Town. The dock where Yue Le jumped into the river just now was already crowded with shirtless men and raiding guys. A small wooden boat had already leaned on it. This small wooden boat was led by Li Tianyu and Lu Sanhao to pick up people! Wang Zhongxiao wanted to save people and wash himself.
These shirtless men on the dock were the Eight Banners soldiers who followed Yue Le and Fei Yanggu all the way. Fei Yanggu had planned to take them to guard the city gate before, but when the news of "the prince jumped into the river" spread, Fei Yanggu's barely gathered up the defense line immediately collapsed, and everyone rushed to the dock - it's important to save the prince!
When they arrived at the dock, these people discovered that two small wooden boats were coming!
Moreover, there are two Qing civil servants on the two wooden boats. This is a life-saving boat!
No one was intent on fighting with Wu Bing now, and they all wanted to squeeze into the two boats. The dock was in chaos. Li Tianyu and Lu Sanhao were also scared when they saw this scene and did not dare to let the boat lean on, for fear that the small wooden boat would be overturned.
On the south of the dock, the "Red Turban Wu Soldiers" who were fully armed were sorting out their formation and were about to attack.
The dock was already in chaos, and suddenly there was a crisp gunshot. Everyone was in a hurry. The originally noisy pier suddenly became quiet. Everyone turned their heads and looked over and saw an extremely tall and strong man holding a short gun in one hand and holding a Pu knife in the other, and was standing there with a glaring eyes. It was Fei Yanggu.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Fei Yanggu shouted angrily: "Don't get on the boat one by one!"
Then he strode to the edge of the dock, and Park Dao slapped on the bluestone slab of the dock, widened his eyes and looked at the big guy, "If you have a horse, you will cross the river with your tail. Now you can pass! If you don't have a horse, you will call me and get on the boat. Whoever dares to rush to get on the boat? My big knife will not recognize anyone!
If you can’t name it, I will just take you to swim over a small river. It won’t be a problem for us Eight Banners children!”
Not to mention, this guy is really shocking. With just one shot, one knife, one rage, one encouragement, no one dares to act rashly, and the order on the dock was immediately restored.
Moreover, what he arranged was in order. Some of the Eight Banners soldiers who had not forgotten to lead their horses when they were driven by Wu soldiers did not wait to get on the boat. They drove the horses into the Tuojiang River, and then pulled their ponytails and started marching.
Others were waiting for Fei Yanggu to name the name, and the order was OK.
Wang Zhongxiao looked at this scene from afar and thought to himself: The current Eight Banners' children are only a part of them, and they are not completely decayed. After entering Beijing, the middle and lower classes of the Eight Banners lay flat and walked around. Although they were not yet corroded into a pool of mud by foreign medicine, they were indeed very embarrassing. But there are still some people in the middle and upper classes of the Eight Banners' children! Fei Yanggu is one of them. He was a famous general in his original history, right?
At this time, Fei Yanggu had already started to name one by one - he might not know all the people gathered on the dock, he would call them by the name, and if he didn't know, he would point his fingers. He picked out all the ones who looked stronger and younger. He picked seventeen or eighteen people and squeezed into the boat Li Tianyu and Lu Sanhao.
After Li Tianyu and Lu Sanhao's ship left, the small boat where Wang Zhongxiao was also leaned on. Fei Yanggu ordered thirteen people to get on the boat and wanted to ask someone to get on the boat, but Wang Zhongxiao stopped him: "Vice General Fei, there is only one seat!"
This wooden boat is as big as Lu Sanhao's ship, but Yue Le and his two guards have already boarded the boat.
Fei Yanggu smiled and said, "It's just a Tuojiang River, can't the good guys swim over?"
Wang Zhongxiao laughed and got off the boat. He grabbed two small flagmen and threw them up, then waved his hand to let the boat leave quickly.
Fei Yanggu smiled and raised his thumbs up: "Let's compete with good people?"
"Okay!" Wang Zhongxiao nodded, "Let's see who will arrive on the other side first!"
"Qingtian is dead, Zhoutian should be established"
Wu Bing has already started shouting slogans and is about to kill him!
Fei Yanggu opened his throat and shouted, "The Eight Banners children have heard it. Let's swim together. Just a small ditch, can't swim? The guys who swim over are heroes. When I return to Beijing, I will invite the eight alleys to have flower wine!"
His words were simple, but in fact, it is rainy season now. The water surface of the Tuojiang River is very wide and the water flows are fast. It is definitely a good person to swim through! Now, two-thirds of the Eight Banners children gathered on the banks of the Tuojiang River can swim over.
However, these Eight Banners children were still inspired by Fei Yanggu.
"good!"
"Swim over!"
"Just a small ditch!"
"Yes, our Eight Banners children are not afraid of swords and fire!"
While the Eight Banners were yelling, they began to thrust the water. Wang Zhongxiao smiled and said to Fei Yanggu: "You swim first and I'll wait for you on the other side!"
"Haha, I swim very fast!" Fei Yanggu laughed, then plopped into the water and swam forward like a bullfrog.
Wang Zhongxiao looked back at the group of red-headed Wu soldiers. They were wearing the word "king" and a flag of admiral. They should be the team of Wu Sangui's general Wang Pingfan. Wang Zhongxiao and Wang Pingfan are quite familiar, but now is not the time to say hello.
So he turned his head and stabbed it in the water, waved his arms, and used the "special skills" of freestyle (no one can do this swimming posture now), and it was like swimming on the other side of the Tuojiang River.
