【1972】Training soldiers, fighting in front of the village (11)
Run away when you get an advantage, this was what Ma Xiaoquan had repeated to the five soldiers before.
These five people are all real people. Now that you have said it, we should not be taken advantage of and become martyrs. In one word, run away.
...
Due to the suddenness of the incident and the fact that most of the Jurchen troops were putting out the fire, by the time they were about to react, Ma Xiaoquan had already led five of his men out of Qiantun.
At this time, Batu finally arrived at the scene, but unfortunately he could not catch up.
Ma Xiaoquan was also very hurt. In front of Batu, he took out the white tiger skin jacket from his bag and put it on himself. At the same time, he also raised the middle finger of his right hand.
Batu saw Ma Xiaoquan wearing his white tiger fur coat, and was so angry that he found out that Ma Xiaoquan had sneaked into Qiantun and visited his main camp.
"Ma Xiaoquan, I fucked your grandma..." Batu cursed a common curse among Han people.
Ma Xiaoquan laughed, took out a thunderbolt, lit it and threw it towards the front camp without hesitation. Then, with a bang, the front camp burst into mourning.
"Batu, see you later, haha..."
...
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan twisting his butt and disappearing into the night wearing a white tiger fur coat, Batu was going crazy.
Pulling out his saber, Batu said bitterly: "Ma Xiaoquan, I will cut you into pieces... You wait, you wait... Someone, come out with me.
I'm going to kill him..."
The general hugged Batu's waist and advised: "General, you must not do this. Now the grain and grass houses have been burned down. We must count the grains now."
Batu frowned tightly. It was not that he didn't understand what the general said.
Stomping his feet angrily, Batu waved his hand and said: "Forget it, put out the fire first, damn, when it gets daylight, come with me to beat Ma Xiaoquan and kill his mother."
...
Ma Xiaoquan returned to the camp, laughed and took off his white tiger skin jacket, and showed off in front of all the soldiers: "Did you see Batu's white tiger skin jacket? This thing is quite good. I have always wanted one like this."
pieces.”
The five people who went out and returned with Ma Xiaoquan also looked proud. They all straightened their backs and nodded in praise.
"Sir, we have destroyed their food and grass houses and the warehouses where they store clothes and quilts. What are we going to do after that?"
Ma Xiaoquan put away his smile, thought for a while and said: "Early tomorrow morning, Batu will bring his large army out to fight us to the death, so we will fight in hiding in this battle tomorrow."
"Hide and fight? How about hiding and fighting?"
"There are only eighty of us now. There are hundreds of people in Batu anyway. It would be absolutely unwise for us to go head-to-head with them. Well, we'd better go to Guangming Mountain. Let's leave now...
But we have to leave in groups. Well, in this way, you go to Guangming Mountain first and prepare for war. Leave twenty people behind and join me here to delay Batu's army."
"Sir, this is too dangerous."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "There is no way, Batu has reached the limit of his patience. Once he finishes the things in the grain and grass house and warehouse, he will definitely lead his troops to attack. If he doesn't see me, he will keep chasing me. You are all
My people, I don’t want any of you to be injured or even killed, but war is war, so...I will try my best to protect you as much as I can."
Ma Xiaoquan has stated many times that he values his people. We are all human beings and understand his painstaking efforts. With such a good master, what else can we ask for?
"Okay, don't hesitate, go get ready now and leave the tent behind."
"Yes~"
...
An hour later...
In the front camp, the Jurchen soldiers had moved the remaining grain and grass that had not been burned to the new warehouse. As for the burned quilts and clothes, the Jurchen soldiers had taken them out and thrown them away.
After counting the remaining supplies, Batu ordered all the soldiers to prepare for a surprise attack on Ma Xiaoquan.
At the same time, Ma Xiaoquan divided the remaining 20 people into four teams, each with five people, to guard the five corners.
Time was so tight that the soldiers only rushed to make three Juma horns. Ma Xiaoquan ordered his men to arrange the three Juma horns in a straight line.
After a moment of burning incense, Ma Xiaoquan heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
"Are you ready?"
"Sir, you are ready~"
"Hmm~" Ma Xiaoquan nodded, squinting his eyes and said, "Get your thunderbolts ready. You'll be closer soon. Throw them as hard as you can~"
"Yes~~"
...
Not far ahead, Batu led the cavalry to attack with murderous intent.
"Damn it, it turns out that Ma Xiaoquan only brought more than 80 people, which made me worry for so long..."
The general said: "Yes, general, but fortunately we have received the news from Jinzhou. In this way, we don't have to worry. The three hundred of us are enough to annihilate them in one fell swoop~"
"Of course, hum~"
...
When the distance between the two parties was less than one mile, Batu ordered the troops to stop and sent out exploration horses.
After a while, Tan Ma reported back and said that Ma Xiaoquan was in the camp and was still wearing the white tiger skin coat that belonged to you, the general.
Batu cursed and drew his saber: "Brothers, come up with me and kill that bitch Ma Xiaoquan~"
"Uh ha..." the Jurchen soldiers shouted in unison.
...
The enemy troops are getting closer and closer, and the sound of horse hooves is getting louder and louder.
Ma Xiaoquan exhaled and said to the soldiers beside him: "Brothers, remember, fight for a while, listen to my orders, and then we will run~"
"Yes~~"
...
Ma Xiaoquan raised his head, squinted his eyes, and saw the cavalry at the front. He raised his hand to indicate that the soldiers were ready.
The Jurchen cavalry are getting closer and closer, with Batu at the forefront.
Ma Xiaoquan drew his bow and nocked an arrow, aimed at Batu's face, and fired an arrow with a loud bang.
Batu also noticed Ma Xiaoquan. He made an early judgment and turned sideways to avoid the arrow. However, the cavalry behind him screamed and was hit by an arrow in the face and fell off his horse.
"Kill me~~" Batu raised his saber and roared.
Ma Xiaoquan also stood up, raised the spear in his hand, and said: "Throw it at me and blow up those idiots~"
"Yes~"
Twenty soldiers all threw out the lit thunderbolt bombs in their hands. When the first wave of shock cavalry arrived, the thunderbolt bombs fell to the ground. The sound of rumbling continued, and bursts of screams could be heard.
Batu reined in the horse and asked in surprise: "Why does Ma Xiaoquan still have a cannon?"
"It's not a cannon, General. The ones they threw out of their hands were too powerful..."
Batu gritted his teeth and said: "Rush, keep charging, rush over and kill them~"
...
Ma Xiaoquan also saw Batu's intention. He waved and the soldiers threw a second wave of thunderbolts.
Ten more bangs sounded, and then Ma Xiaoquan called out: "Withdraw~"
Twenty soldiers got on the horses that had been prepared, shook off their whips, and ran away.
...
From a distance, Batu saw Ma Xiaoquan retreating and shouted: "Where are you going, traitor?"
Ma Xiaoquan was also on horseback. He turned around and said back: "You bandit, I just ran away. If you have the ability, come after me. Come on~~"
"Ma Xiaoquan, you... chase me~ If anyone takes Ma Xiaoquan's head, I will reward you heavily~"
Ma Xiaoquan laughed, lit a thunder bomb while running, and slipped out: "Batu, try my thunder bomb, haha..."
As soon as the laughter passed, the ground exploded with a rumble.
The screams rang out again, and Batu's forward cavalry suffered nearly ten casualties.
Everyone has the same horse. Except for Batu's horse, which is faster, the other horses are about the same speed. Therefore, Ma Xiaoquan ran in front and the Jurchen cavalry chased behind, but they could never catch up.
"Separate the cavalry from the two wings, be careful of Ma Xiaoquan's dirty tricks..." Batu suddenly raised his hand and shouted.
The Jurchen cavalry received the order and immediately split up. Ma Xiaoquan glanced back and cursed secretly in his mind. Then he grabbed the reins of the horse, waved the whip vigorously, and the horse galloped away.
In the rear, the Ming army on Guangming Mountain was almost ready. I heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance. I looked up and saw that Ma Xiaoquan was in charge.
At this time, because the number of Ming troops was too small, they were gradually surrounded by Jurchen cavalry. Seeing that the circle was getting smaller and smaller, Ma Xiaoquan had no choice but to order his detachment to go to Guangming Mountain.
Originally, Ma Xiaoquan arranged for the remaining people to go to Guangming Mountain just to escape, but unexpectedly, he inadvertently became the Jurchen cavalry's intention to strangle him.
When Batu saw Ma Xiaoquan leading people to run towards Guangming Mountain, he laughed and said: "When the opportunity comes, chase me and force Ma Xiaoquan up the mountain, haha..."
Halfway up the mountain, the Ming army was not idle either. The moment Ma Xiaoquan entered Guangming Mountain, they collectively threw thunderbolts.
Throwing it from the mountain down the mountain, not only the angle can be calculated, but also the distance.
There was a rumbling explosion at the foot of the mountain, and in just that moment, dozens of Jurchen cavalry were killed or injured.
There were three hundred cavalry brought out by Batu. More than 20 were killed by Ma Xiaoquan before, and now more than 60 were killed by the Ming army on the mountain. The number of cavalry was suddenly reduced by more than a quarter. Batu could
It can be described as overwhelming hatred.
"General, they abandoned their horses. The horses can't go up Guangming Mountain!" said the general.
Batu was also anxious. Since Ma Xiaoquan was already surrounded in Guangming Mountain, he was not afraid of him escaping.
"Let's get off our horses and search every inch of land on this mountain. We will definitely kill Ma Xiaoquan on the spot~"
"Yes~"
...
Ma Xiaoquan led twenty people to run all the way, and finally met up with the remaining people at the rear.
Everyone was very excited to see Ma Xiaoquan.
"Sir, let's fight to the death and fight them~" The soldiers were high in fighting spirit.
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and cursed: "I'm sorry for everyone. I didn't expect to lead everyone to a dead end. Damn it, I have to fight~"
