Chapter 6 Encounter on the way to rescue(2/2)

"If the main force of Songshan is defeated, as long as Lianshan City is defended, the defeated soldiers on the front line will not be cut off. At least they can safely retreat to Ningyuan."

Zhu Yunfei was wearing fish scale armor and gave Zhang Tianfu instructions in a low voice.

"You mean that Songshan's main force will be completely defeated?" Zhang Tianfu looked surprised. He had never thought of this result.

Although the food and grass were destroyed, as long as they retreat in an orderly manner, the army of hundreds of thousands will not be completely defeated.

"I also hope that Commander Hong can turn the tide of the battle and win the battle." Zhu Yunfei answered the unexpected question.

It is a pity that Governor Hong, like his predecessors Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan, and Yang Hao, could only end up in Liaodong with broken wings.

Zhu Yunfei led Li Hu, Zhang Tianfu and a thousand cavalry, one person and two horses, fully armed, and came out from the south gate of Lianshan Mountain.

After a quick march one day, the soldiers and horses led by Zhu Yunfei arrived at the outskirts of Songshan City early the next morning.

It was just getting dark, and after a day and a night's journey, Zhu Yunfei led his army to an abandoned village.

"Li Hu, you lead a team of people to take charge of the perimeter security. Tianfu, please arrange to make a fire and cook, eat and rest for a while before setting off."

Zhu Yunfei rode his horse, whipped his whip, and shouted loudly.

After receiving the order, the soldiers entered the village to rest.

Just as he was full, a cry of death suddenly came from outside the village, and then Li Hu came flying to report.

"Mr. Qian, there is a Ming army team on the official road, and they are being chased by Jiannu cavalry."

"Gather immediately and prepare to fight." Zhu Yunfei stood up and shouted loudly.

As soon as the team gathered, they saw that the Ming army had broken down and was already running towards the village.

The Qing cavalry chasing after them numbered only about a hundred cavalry. Judging from the color of the opponent's armor, Zhu Yunfei recognized at a glance that they were cavalry from Jiannu with a blue flag.

"Zhang Tianfu, Li Hu, each of you will lead a team of soldiers and horses, and surround them on both wings. The rest of the soldiers will follow me to kill the slaves!"

When Zhu Yunfei saw that the opponent only had more than a hundred troops, he immediately drew his long-handled sword from his horse, galloped out, and rushed straight into the Jiannu army formation.

"Kill the slaves!"

The thousand fine knights behind Zhu Yunfei drew out the phoenix-wing knives from their waists and charged forward with roars.

Facing the sudden attack of Ming cavalry, General Jiannu, who led his team to chase the Ming army, changed his expression and immediately raised his sword and roared.

"Gather up a formation and follow me to fight out."

"Kill the slaves!"

Zhu Yunfei rode his horse, held a sword, shouted loudly, took the lead and rushed into the enemy's formation.

"Bang!" The Jiannu cavalry who collided head-on with a long sword slash, was cut in the middle by Zhu Yunfei and fell off his horse.

The long sword, which was not losing its momentum, turned around and slashed hard at the chest of another enemy knight.

"Uh~ah!"

A scream rang out, and blood spattered from the chest of the enemy knight, and his body fell off the horse.

"Kill the slaves!"

The soldiers waved their sabers with high morale, and launched an attack without hesitation against the hundreds of Jiannu cavalry who were surrounded layer by layer.

Although Jiannu's cavalry of more than a hundred people is small in number, its combat effectiveness is very fierce.

The main reason is that the commander of the army, Aldoli, was the son of Beile Amin of the Qing Dynasty and was granted the title of Duke of Zhenguo.

The cavalry under his command was Bagala from the Zhenglan Banner, and they were the elite among the elite of the Qing army.

Although the Ming army led by Zhu Yunfei had an absolute advantage in strength and had strong generals like Li Hu and Zhang Tianfu.

Zhu Yunfei even used his own power to kill more than ten people in a row, but after a fierce battle, he still paid the price with the death of nineteen people.

Only then did they completely annihilate the more than 120 slave-building cavalry in front of them.

"Let me go, let me go." The last few injured Jiannu cavalry were escorted to Zhu Yunfei.

Zhu Yunfei glanced at the six people and waved his hand: "Cut off their heads and take them back to receive the reward."

"As ordered." Li Hu shouted with a ferocious smile while holding a bloody sword.

"General, spare my life. I am the Duke of Daqing Town, Ai Duli. As long as you spare my life, I will definitely get more benefits in exchange."

Facing Zhu Yunfei's butcher's knife, Al Duli, who had been captured by Li Hu in the battle just now, suddenly begged for mercy and revealed his identity.

"Now that your Ming army has been defeated and a large number of generals have been captured, if you spare my life, you can definitely get more troops back."

Zhu Yunfei looked at the guy in front of him sharply and said coldly.

"I don't accept this condition, you can go and die."

"General, General, spare your life, as long as you let me go, I will promise you anything."

Aldoli did not expect that Zhu Yunfei would be so decisive, and he was so frightened that he shouted repeatedly.

Aldoli really doesn't want to die. He is only in his early twenties now, at the prime of his life. As a member of the royal family, as long as he lives, there will be a lot of good days waiting for him in the future.

"Do you really want to live?" Zhu Yunfei didn't expect that in the fight just now, this guy hacked and killed two of his soldiers. He was so cruel that he was now greedy for life and afraid of death.

"Think, think about it." Eduli nodded repeatedly. On the battlefield, he killed the enemy desperately for meritorious service, but he was really unwilling to be beheaded after being captured.

"Then let me ask you, where are your military rations?" Zhu Yunfei asked tentatively with a joking attitude.

What was unexpected was Ai Duli, who spoke without hesitation: "Yizhou City is located to the west of Jinzhou, about two hundred miles north."

"Yizhou?" Zhu Yunfei quickly recalled the map in his mind and vaguely felt that what the other party said was true.

"Li Hu, take him down and leave it to you." Zhu Yunfei waved his hand, no longer interested in the person in front of him.

"General, General, I've said it before, you can't keep your word." Seeing Li Hu charging forward ferociously, Ai Duli shouted in panic.

"The general agreed, but I didn't." Li Hu sneered, raised his knife, and chopped off the opponent's head.

Do you have credibility with the Jiannu Tatars?

This is not Zhu Yunfei's style, and he has never promised to spare his life, right?

After dealing with this group of Jiannu, Zhang Tianfu now led a team of troops to gather up the fleeing Ming army.
