Chapter 287: Abandoned City
"The whole army listens to the order, open the south gate, withdraw all, and abandon the city!"
Just when a group of Tatar leaders outside the city came to Bo Chengen again to ask for an explanation. In the city, Li Gui unexpectedly ordered the abandonment of the Tatars who were lucky enough not to die.
City’s orders!
"Abandon the city? Brother Li, you fought well, why did you abandon the city?"
"If we don't give in, these Tatars will run away. We have to leave them some hope, right? Otherwise, how will we drag them until our reinforcements arrive, hahahaha!"
"That's right. Besides, our war horses are still outside the south city. If these Tatars want to run away, we won't use two legs to chase them, hahahaha!"
Hearing what Li Gui said, all the soldiers reacted instantly and began to move the masonry and sandbags that had previously blocked the south gate.
…
"Explanation? What explanation do you want? There is no one who can't die in a war? Besides, it's not just your people who died in the battle, most of my musketeers also died in the battle!"
Seeing another clean siege failure, Bo Chengen, who was already in a bad mood, could not help but turn cold when being forced by these Tatar leaders.
"We don't care. If you don't give us a suitable explanation today, we will... Huh? Those Ming troops escaped?"
Just when a Tatar leader was about to argue with Bo Chengen again, he suddenly discovered through the collapsed north gate that the south gate of Pinglu City not far away was opened. At this moment, the Ming army in the city was
He is quickly 'escaping' from the south gate!
"Hahahaha, I know, my father must have successfully captured the city of Ningxia! Now that the Ming army's home base has been lost, they must be afraid and want to escape!"
Following the gaze of the Tatar leader, Bo Chengen also discovered Yu Linwei who was 'escaping' from Pinglu City.
'Haha, no matter how strong your Habayashi Guards are, what's the matter? If your lair is taken away, you still have to withdraw your troops and run away!'
Seeing the Yulin Guards hurriedly abandoning the city and 'escaping', Bo Chengen couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.
"Haha, how about it? Are you guys ready to leave now, or are you going south with me?"
In the end, Bo Chengen knowingly looked at the Tatar leaders who had just surrounded him to 'account'.
"Haha, the young general is joking! We are allies, so naturally we have to help each other and send troops together to teach those barbarians of the Ming Dynasty a lesson!"
Looking at Bo Chengen's joking expression, the Tatar leaders, who had been aggressive and unyielding just now, immediately performed a face-changing stunt, and friendly smiles instantly replaced their previous anger and enthusiasm.
He once again reaffirmed his alliance with Bobai and his sons.
Just kidding, as long as we capture Pinglu City, the road south to Ningxia will be a vast plain. If we leave at this time, wouldn’t those who died before die in vain?...
"It's almost there. If we retreat, we won't be in danger. Those Tatars might be able to bypass it from other places!"
After leaving the city, when they retreated to Zhou Dengbao, about ten miles south of Pinglu City, a group of Yulin Guards soldiers finally stopped and began to build a new line of defense relying on Zhoudengbao.
"I don't know when Lao Li will be able to come over with his brothers. After a long fight, I fired two muskets and dropped two grenades. This has just aroused my addiction, but there are no fucking Tatars.
It’s a hit!”
An "Old Yu Lin" who was leading a group of soldiers to dig trenches with shovels couldn't help but keep looking up to the south.
"Haha, Zhao Qianhu is right. In addition to traveling all day and night, we are still traveling. In the end, the traveling time is much longer than the time spent fighting!"
Hearing the muttering of the old Yu Lin, who was already a Qianhu official, several Yu Lin guard sergeants who were also working hard digging the soil couldn't help but laugh in agreement.
"Don't worry, Brother Zhao. After those Tatars help us clean up Pinglu City, you will have some fun, haha!"
Looking at the three parallel trenches that had quickly taken shape thanks to the efforts of the subordinates, Li Gui, who was personally leading the team to dig a horse pit in front of the trenches, heard Zhao Qianhu's 'complaints'
, but couldn't help laughing.
Speaking of which, although the Yulin Guards have hardly fought on the battlefield since the expansion of the Yulin Guards, before the expansion of the Yulin Guards, Wang Bing and dozens of veteran Yulins dug the kind of horse traps specially designed for horse legs on the grassland.
The pit became a classic example of positional warfare with the Tatar cavalry in the military academy classroom.
Therefore, facing this difficult-to-encounter battlefield battle, in addition to trenches, horse traps are naturally indispensable.
…
"Ugh~"
Just as Li Gui and a group of Yulin Guards relied on Zhou Dengbao to set up a new defense line, Bo Chengen and a group of Tatar leaders finally stepped into Pinglu City. In half a day, they almost swallowed them up.
Pinglu City with 7,000 people.
However, as soon as they entered the city, a violent smell of blood rushed straight to the front door, making the Tatars and rebels who were accustomed to seeing casualties and blood immediately make them retching!
"Someone, please clean up the bones of our brothers and bury them properly!"
Yes, if you want to enter the city, you have to clean up first, otherwise you will have to step on the corpses of your own people.
Fortunately, the coalition forces had enough manpower, and after more than an hour, the corpses of these Tatars were basically cleaned up.
Of course, this only means cleaning up the corpses blocking the road. As for the blood flowing all over the streets, the scattered meat and so on, the Tatars who are rushing to enter the country and plunder have no time.
Go clean.
"Rumble, rumble..."
Soon, when the main street running through the north and south city gates was cleared, a group of impatient Tatar cavalry immediately chased them out without any need for Bocheng's orders.
"Major General, should we..."
Looking at the Tatar cavalry rushing out of the city, a rebel general in his thirties dressed as a Ming army looked towards Bo Chengen.
"Don't worry, wait until those Tatars go to explore the way for us first. Even if those Yulin Guards retreat, they will definitely not just escape like other Ming troops! After they help us find the way out, Wenxiu
You and I will lead the army back to Ningxia City and join my father."
Speaking of which, Bo Chengen, who had no idea that his father had already become a demon, knew a lot about Yulin Wei.
But what he didn't know was that the reason why the three thousand Yulin Guards led by Li Gui evacuated Pinglu City was just to give him a little hope of victory so that he could be firmly held in Pinglu City.
