After returning from Peiping City, Wan Lei actively packed his bags and prepared to escape. He arranged for the three brothers of the Zhao family to dig pits to bury all kinds of important experimental equipment and finished products, so that they could reopen the seal if there was a chance in the future. And Song Jinming
Despite Wan Lei's urging, he finally went north with the reinforcements.
The days passed under such a tense situation. Two days later, the reinforcements came with the news of a small victory over hundreds of Tatars. Everyone was relieved and secretly thought that Wan Lao was unfounded. Everyone in the Shuntian Mansion regarded Wan Lei as a traitor.
He is a traitor who refuses to save his life. Every time Wan Lei delivers goods to Peiping, he often receives all kinds of abuse and attacks.
November passed quickly in the north wind. On the second day of December, under the hazy sky, the north wind hit people's faces like a knife. Wan Lei had just completed the payment handover and handed over to the Li family.
The antidote was given to him for ten days, during which time he was looked down upon by the Li family members. Who made him insist on "seeing death without saving".
As for the abusive attacks from the Li family, Wan Lei ignored them. With the sloppy Taoist accompanying him to protect him, the second young man of the Li family did not dare to make any move. Besides, his brother was now surrounded by enemies. Whether he could come back alive was still up to him.
Unknown, how could he still care about Wan Lei?
"Commander Li, come and see quickly. I heard that a wounded soldier has returned."
"Wounded soldier? What's going on?"
"I don't know. The guy next door said he was a wounded soldier. He had been hit by several arrows and was covered in blood. He was running towards the government office. Everyone was rushing to see what happened."
"Could he have come back to report the news? Could it be..." A middle-aged scholar was startled and ran north quickly.
At this time, Wan Lei was shopping to buy some daily necessities. He saw people nearby heading towards Chengbei. It could be seen from their words that something seemed to have happened. Without thinking too much, he pulled the horse
He merged into the crowd and headed towards the north of the city.
Just after crossing a few streets, I saw a man and a horse running past like the wind. The man was covered in blood and couldn't see his true face. He was leaning to the side and looked like he might fall off the horse at any time. Look at him again.
There were still a few arrow feathers stuck in his back. It seemed that he had been seriously injured in a fierce battle with the Tatars.
The wounded soldier ran outside the Shuntian Mansion Yamen in one breath and fell to the ground immediately. He spat out a mouthful of blood and moved his mouth a few times. The weak sound struck the hearts of everyone present like a sledgehammer.
"Reinforcement, army, whole, whole army, destroyed, Tatar, Tatar, already, have arrived at Yongguan."
The army was defeated miserably! Beiping was empty! A powerful enemy entered the enemy's territory!
The minds of the people watching went blank, as if the world had collapsed! After a while, a person suddenly ran back, and the people next to him also suddenly woke up and ran away. They wanted to run home and pack up their money.
Silver is thin and soft, because at this time, the only way to escape is for the whole family!
As early as thirty years ago, the Ming Dynasty general Xu Da led hundreds of thousands of elite troops to the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty emperor fled for his life in a panic. Who would have thought that only thirty years later, it would be the Ming Dynasty's turn to escape. However,
, no wonder the ordinary people, who made the imperial army so incompetent, the 300,000-strong army was wiped out in a single battle, not to mention the generals, not even a decent army was left in the city of Beiping. If you don't run away, will you be reduced to nothing when the city is broken?
A ghost under the knife?!
In less than a cup of tea, the streets that were once crowded with people have become as empty as tree branches swept by the autumn wind. On the empty streets, you can occasionally see a few ruffians taking advantage of the situation, and officials who usually run rampant
The government officials also disappeared, and what's worse, some unscrupulous officials even broke into civilians' homes and robbed them. In short, Peking was completely in chaos.
Wan Lei didn't run. He helped the sergeant who fell to the ground. As soon as he lifted his messy hair, a familiar face appeared in front of him. It was Song Jinming. This guy had been hit by so many arrows.
He could still insist on running back to deliver the letter. Wan Lei couldn't help but be moved by his tenacity.
"I told you not to join the army, but you went instead. Now I know you regret it!" Wan Lei cursed secretly in his heart, and hurriedly cut open Song Jinming's battle clothes with a knife. It may be that he has been injured for a long time, and those stains on the battle clothes are stained
The blood had formed into blood clots. When Wan Lei pulled it, Song Jin screamed and woke up from the pain.
"Master Wan..."
"Bite this." Wan Lei stuffed a piece of cloth into his mouth. He whined a few times and had to shut up.
A total of five arrows hit Song Jinming's back. Fortunately, he was protected by soft armor. The arrows only penetrated half an inch and did not damage his heart, spleen and internal organs. It was only because of excessive bleeding that he was so weak.
However, the arrows used by the Mongols are really vicious and V-shaped. When the arrow is dug out, it will definitely bring out a large piece of flesh, which can hurt people to death.
"Do you have any wine?" Wan Lei reached out to the sloppy Taoist priest, but the sloppy Taoist priest ignored him and stretched out his fingers to tap Song Jinming's back a few times. Song Jinming fainted and fell asleep. After that, he
Holding the wound with one hand, he suddenly pulled it out with the other hand, and the arrow came out of the flesh. Fortunately, not a lot of meat came out, and there was no rush of blood. This old guy is so good at this, he must have given it a lot in the past.
People pull out arrows.
Now that there was a healing hand by his side, Wan Lei was too lazy to show off his poor first aid skills. He took out a bottle of healing balm from the wooden box he carried with him and applied it evenly on the wound.
Soon, the bleeding from the wound stopped.
After hastily dealing with these five wounds, Song Jinming was awakened by pain five times. At this time, a large group of people finally came out of the government office. The leader was Yin Tiexuan of Shuntian Prefecture. As soon as he saw this place
It was a bloody scene, so he said to his subordinates: "Hurry, help him into the house quickly."
"Don't, don't move. His wound hasn't stopped bleeding. You can't carry him like this. Go and get a stretcher." Wan Lei stopped several government servants who were about to pull people away. He didn't want Song Jin to let him go.
The wounds that had just stopped bleeding were opened.
"What's going on?" Tie Xuan recognized Wan Lei and Song Jinming lying on the ground at a glance, and couldn't help but frown and asked.
"Don't you see? Look around, and then look at the entire city of Beiping, you still don't understand what's going on?" Wan Lei rolled his eyes at Tie Xuan angrily, and said: "I told you not to go out again, you guys
I didn’t listen, now I’m fine, just wait and see the lives of all the people in ruins.”
Tie Xuan still didn't understand. He looked at the government officials guarding the door. One of the government officials whispered: "Young man, I don't know what's going on. I just heard this man say, what about reinforcements?"
The whole army has been wiped out, and the Tatar army has reached Juyongguan."
"No, it's impossible? Even if the reinforcements are really defeated, it's impossible for the whole army to be annihilated. And even if the Tatars really come to Juyong Pass, General Li, who is guarding the pass, should have sent back military information." Tie Xuan naturally didn't believe it.
.
And just when Tie Xuan was looking for a sense of security to comfort himself, Song Jinming woke up again and said urgently: "General Li Shen will surrender to the enemy before the battle, and Juyong Pass has fallen into the hands of the enemy! Under the leadership of the Yan thieves' remaining party, the Tatars have already
We gathered our troops at Juyong Pass and prepared to storm Peiping. I, I, risked my life and ran back to deliver the message."
When Song Jinming said this, he couldn't help but cough whether it was because of nervousness or pain. When Tie Xuan heard the news, his eyes turned white and he almost fainted.
Juyongguan fell into the enemy's hands, and the gates of Peiping were opened wide. The sky was really going to collapse!
