900, the camp and guard troops were defeated three times
Tian Peng finished writing a military report to An Sanxi, reporting on the situation at the mouth of the valley here. At the same time, he reminded that there may be reinforcements in the direction of Datong. Be careful of being outflanked from behind by the Datong army, cutting off the retreat to the grassland.
Tian Peng dried the ink, put the military newspaper into an envelope, printed it with ink, and gave it to the communications corps for dispatch.
Tian Peng couldn't sleep, so he walked up to the long sandbag wall and looked out of the valley.
Under the cover of night, the camp opposite was a large one, surrounded by felled trees to form a fence. There were groups of soldiers patrolling.
After all, Hou Shilu is a veteran, and he still has some abilities. Tomorrow's battle is expected to be more intense.
After the south gate of Zhangjiakou Fort was opened, the heads and servants of the eight major merchant groups rushed out with their belongings. They panicked and ran away as soon as they left the city gate. People screamed and horses neighed, and there was chaos.
Fan Yongdou led the people out of the city last, but they did not follow the crowd. The crowd was heading towards the mountain pass.
Because that's the only way to Xuanfu.
Fan Yongdou didn't think that there was no one holding a hand there. He even thought that there might be enemies responsible for blocking the attack somewhere outside the south gate. He also didn't think that these people could break through the blocking force in the valley.
A group of people ran westward along the city wall. There is no gate on the west side of the city wall of Zhangjiakou Fort, so there is most likely no one to intercept it. After all, the Mongols only number about 10,000 people. The number of troops is still relatively tight. They cannot cover everything.
.
Fan Yongdou led more than 3,000 people and a large amount of property to the corner of the city wall, and quickly left the city wall and ran toward the mountains.
In a hidden place in the mountains, there is a small village. It is a stronghold set up secretly by Fan Yongdou. There are many camels, food and supplies there.
At this moment, dozens of bright lights suddenly shone in the wilderness outside the south gate.
The bright beam of light in the dark night blinded the eyes of these people, causing them to lose sight for a short time. This was when a battalion staying outside the south gate turned on the carbide lamp.
Immediately afterwards, Fan Yongdou heard gunshots that sounded like exploding beans.
At this time, he could no longer care about surprise. This time, the Mongols had given him too many "surprises", and he was too lazy to think about why the Mongols had so many muskets.
From the beginning of the street fighting, he had been numbed by the intensive muskets. These muskets were all things he had never seen before. Their performance was excellent and their fire rate was so high that it was simply outrageous.
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the source-changing app, huanyuanapp, that is used by all chasing bugs.]
Now he just wants to take away the more than 3,000 elite members of the Fan family.
He knew that the eight major business groups could no longer survive in the Ming Dynasty. These people were his own people that he had secretly won over over the years, not members of the clan. He had decided to abandon the clan and go it alone.
Fan Yongdou was already wondering where these Mongolians came from. He had even begun to doubt Yang Fan. After all, Yang Fan was the only one with many Mongolians on the grassland.
Although the banner they are flying is undoubtedly the sacred relic passed down by Tushetu Khan from Genghis Khan. But who knows whether they are colluding.
In Zhangjiakou Fort, where the eight major business groups are stationed, there are too many things that cannot be seen in the light. I am afraid they cannot be hidden this time. Fan Yongdou can even think that the shareholders of the eight business groups are idiots, and they will most likely go back to find them.
He stayed in Jimingyi and refused to enter the capital camp of Xuanfu.
There are a large number of imperial censors and officials from the Six Ministries in Yang Fan's army. Most of these people are from the Donglin Party. This was specially arranged by the emperor to check and balance Yang Fan. These people are now trying to find ways to abolish the Jiubian and get the border troops away from the local parties.
.
When these people come to Zhangjiakou Fort, they will never miss this opportunity to overthrow the Jin Party.
When these things ferment, it is a disaster.
So we must make up our minds and leave early, otherwise we won’t be able to leave any later.
As for where he wanted to go, he had already made up his mind, so he went to Shenyang and joined Fan Wencheng. Daikin lacked business talents, and if he went there with thousands of direct descendants, he would definitely be valued by Huang Taiji.
The eight major business groups are finished, and there will be no eggs in the overturned nest. At this time, he must make a decisive decision and make the right choice. Fortunately, his choice has always been very correct.
At this time, in the distance behind, there were shouts of killing, and five hundred cavalrymen came out from the hiding place, killing the core members of the merchant group and the bodyguards who were running around. There were even two unknown firearms on the rack.
From a high place, flames began to erupt fiercely, and the bullets shot out were like lines of fire, like whips, shooting at the crowd.
A large number of guards fought back with shotguns, and were soon swept to the ground like wheat.
Fan Yongdou's eyes widened in surprise. If this were a Mongolian Tatar, he could eat the riding crop. When did the Mongolian Tatars have such powerful firearms?
In the entire Ming Dynasty, there was only one person with the most powerful firearms, and that was Uncle Dingyuan.
"Hurry up, don't stop, go into the mountains immediately." Fan Yongdou roared. He seemed not to notice some servants who were secretly slowing down while carrying money on their backs.
As the Nancheng breakout was revealed, large numbers of cavalry came from all over.
After all, humans cannot outrun four horse legs. These people were quickly surrounded, and the cavalry easily dealt with these rabble. As the guards who dared to resist were hacked to death, the remaining people knelt on the ground and raised their hands in surrender.
At this time, the battle in the city also ended.
An Sanxi rode the horse that Yang Fan rewarded him and walked into the south gate. The city was full of freshly extinguished fires, and black smoke was still rising from the ruins. The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, taking out the dead bodies and setting them up with firewood to burn.
Lose.
The Guards began to ransack the homes, clearing out the belongings from the Shanxi merchants' mansions in the fort and transporting them to Duolun. A large number of captured shopkeepers, stewards, clerks, guards, grooms and their family papers were all trembling on the ground waiting.
with their fate.
"Commander, Fan Yongdou ran away. Among the eight major business groups captured, Fan Yongdou was not included. There were more than 3,000 people missing with him. Our people captured some of their guys, all of whom were carrying property.
Trying to escape privately," Wang Hao said.
An Sanxi nodded, a day had passed. This time he was not equipped with horses, only camels, so he would definitely not be able to catch up.
"How is the progress of cleaning up the property? The master is keeping an eye on this matter." An Sanxi asked.
Chen Gang, the general of the Jiading Regiment, said: "We were ordered by the master to bring five sets of metal detectors. One set every five. We have now started searching the whole city. As long as there are metal objects within five meters underground, they can all be taken out. One
No copper plate will be left out."
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll give you three days to dig out three feet of the ground and loot it all." An Sanxi said with satisfaction.
Now that the snowstorm has stopped, the weather is getting warmer quickly. After all, it is already March. Although this period is relatively cold, as long as the cold wave passes, the ice and snow will soon melt.
"First, take all these unscrupulous people from Litong to Mongolia and take them to the winter pasture of Tushetu Khan. After the spring begins, Song Yingxing will send technical personnel to guide them in building the city of Ulaanbaatar."
