The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 156 Wang Jiang

"Report!"

"To reply to the general, about 30,000 enemy troops evacuated from the camp and don't know where to go. As for the specific situation, we can't get close, so we don't know who led them to leave or where they are going."

"What!" Liu Xia, who was watching the musketeers shooting on the campus, listened with a surprised look on her face, so she said in a low voice, "Let's go, conference hall!"

After saying that, the crowd followed Liu Xia to the council chamber. After entering the room, the crowd surrounded a map.

"Thirty thousand troops are not a small number, and they will definitely not leave for no reason. What do you think of Da Zhuang?" Liu Xia turned her head and asked Liu Dazhuang.

Liu Dazhuang obviously didn't expect that Liu Xia would ask him. He also couldn't figure out about this matter. Why did the enemy suddenly divide 30,000 troops to other places? Although the enemy divided 30,000 horses in terms of the number of people, it is several times more than the Pingbei army, but separation is not a good thing.

"General, it seems that something must be strange at this time!"

Liu Xia nodded and said coldly, "No matter what conspiracy the enemy has, it will not escape our eyes!" According to the order, some of the scouts outside stared at the 30,000 troops. I would not believe that the 30,000 troops could suddenly disappear, and it was not so easy for so many people to hide.

"Yes, I understand!"

"Where has the military division gone?"

The guard next to him came forward and replied, "I want to reply to the general, now that the military division has arrived in Yanshi City. It is expected that he will be able to reach the Hu Prison Pass as soon as tonight. If it is late, it will be almost tomorrow morning."

Liu Xia'en said, "The enemy suddenly split up. Although we don't know what they are going to do now, we can also guess that they must have a conspiracy, so we can't relax at all. This battle is related to our future lives, the lives of our old and young wives and children. Be sure to win! The Qing army is not invincible and invincible! They are also human beings! They will also be afraid, and they will also be defeated! Even if we are less than the enemy today, as long as we show high morale and the spirit of death, we will definitely win in the end.

"H Long live the Pingbei Army! Long live the general!" I don't know who shouted, and dozens of generals in the whole council chamber shouted in unison.

"Do you have any news about that brigade?" Liu Xia raised his arm and waved it, signaling that the voice was lowered, and then suddenly thought of something and asked again.

The brigade mentioned by Liu Xia is a large team of the Guards Regiment that was sent to carry out special orders before. That happened many days ago, but so far, Liu Xia has not seen anyone report their specific situation to him.

As the head of the Guards, Wang Stone is also very worried. After all, they are all the soldiers of the Guards. Every generals of the Guards seems to be Wang Stone's younger brother. That's how Wang Stone treats them.

"To report to the general, there has been no news about them for so many days."

"Alas" Liu Xia sighed and said in a condensed voice, "They are brave soldiers. You must not treat them badly. As soon as you find out their situation, come to report!"

Mount Song is the middle of the five mountains. Although it is not a large mountain range in the whole territory of China, it is not small. The peaks are like clouds, and the strange rocks and strange forests are one after another.

Hulao guan is between Songshan and the Yellow River.

In a forest of a branch of Songshan Mountain, more than 60 people were tattered and covered with dirty mud. People with messy hair were sitting on the ground eating wild rabbits, but these wild rabbits were not cooked, but ate them raw. Because if you make a fire and cook, there will be smoke, which will expose your whereabouts.

Even if these people have become beggars, they are still energetic, and the sword in their hands is extremely sharp.

These more than 60 people are the remnants of the 200-person brigade. Although they escaped 100 people before, because they did not receive timely treatment all the way, some of the soldiers were infected by injuries and eventually died, and there were more than 60 of them left in the end.

"Deputy team, do we have to stay in this deep mountain forest all the time? If that's the case, brother, I might as well go out and work for the Qing army. Even if I die, it's better than staying here!" A big man said to Wang Jiang, who was sitting not far away.

Wang Jiang held the [thousand-mile eye] (mon telescope) given to him by the captain in his hand. His eyebrows had frowned into Sichuan characters. After listening to the big man's words, he did not speak, but meditated.

Another soldier who bit a mouthful of raw rabbit meat fiercely, wiped the blood all over his mouth, and also followed this and said, "Yes, deputy team, although the captain wanted us to survive, if we hide in this deep mountain forest like this, I might as well follow the captain to death in the battlefield!" Since I came to this deep mountain forest, many brothers have died one after another because of their injuries. I don't want to live in this deep forest!"

"Yes, deputy team, let's rush out!"

"Deputy team, let's rush out!"

Wang Jiang is still thinking, but his other hand is also clenched into a fist, because the fingernails that have not been repaired for a long time have grown crazily, and now they are all inserted into the palm of his hand.

"No! We can't rush out so impulsively. If we all die in battle, what's the meaning of the captain's death?

At this time, a soldier suddenly angrily threw a rabbit's thigh on the ground, licked the blood stains on his mouth, and shouted angrily, "Wang Jiang, if you are afraid of death, stay and live in this deep mountain forest!" I'm not afraid of death, so I won't accompany you to eat bird meat here! I'm going to kill the sahs!" After saying that, the big man looked up and shouted at the crowd, "Brothers, follow me if you are not afraid of death. Let's avenge the captain!"

"Good, good!"

"Let's go and avenge the captain. Since the deputy team is so afraid of death, let's eat rabbit meat here!"

"Let's go to the East Valley to lead the horse! Let's go!"

Everyone's horses are not here, but in a ravine two miles away. The ravine is full of grass and no woods, so it's good to place war horses.

Wang Jiang was angry without the words of the big man. He knew the mood of his brothers. Why didn't he want to rush out and fight with the enemy like that? But if they are all dead, is it worthy of the captain who died for them?

No! You can't just rush out like this and die meaninglessly. Absolutely not!

"Hight! Stop it for me! Now that the captain is not here, I will exercise the captain's rights for the time being! You all stop!"

Wang Jiang suddenly stood up and shouted at the people who were about to go to the East Valley.

Wang Jiang's shout suddenly shocked everyone. The leader laughed and said, "What's wrong? You, Wang Jiang, are afraid of death. Why don't you let us avenge the captain?

Wang Jiang said coldly, "Now that the captain is not here, I am the captain. You are not allowed to go anywhere now. This is a military order! Have you forgotten your identity? You are a member of the Pingbei Army and the warriors of the loyal Guards! You must obey the military order!"

Military orders are like mountains. For soldiers, military orders are above all else! Even if the military order allows you to go up the mountain, you can't retreat. If you step on the fire, you can't escape. This is the real soldier.

Wang Jiang's words stunned the big man, and everyone was silent.

Wang Jiang immediately said, "I know what you are thinking! Thinking that I, Wang Jiang, am afraid of death, I, Wang Jiang, am timid. However, I want to tell you that I, Wang Jiang, am not afraid of death, and I, Wang Jiang, am afraid of death is meaningless. What did the general ask us to come out? It is to make us have some interference with the enemy. If we are so brainless and confront hundreds of thousands of enemies, it is estimated that more than 60 of us will not produce any small waves and will be annihilated! What's the point of the captain's death?"

After listening to Wang Jiang's words, everyone, including the big man, was silent and stopped talking. There was only Wang Jiang's voice in the whole forest.

"Well, that deputy team, what do you think we should do?" A soldier asked timidly.

Wang Jiang said in a low voice, "Brothers, don't worry, I, Wang Jiang, am not a person who is afraid of death, and I won't let my brothers stay in this place where birds don't shit. This afternoon, we had a big meal of cooked food and immediately moved to other places, constantly harassing the Qing army in the rear to do our best for the brothers in the Hu prison. Some strength, even if our strength does not have the slightest impact on the overall situation, it can at least slightly relieve the pressure on the brothers once the customs.

"Good!" After Wang Jiang finished speaking, many brothers shouted for approval.

Wang Jiang looked at the excited soldiers with a little dim eyes. How many of these brothers will be able to live in the end?

Alas, the damn Tartan wild boar skin is full of people. What's wrong with hunting in your own deep mountains and forests? Why do you enter our Han world? You walked out of the forest and killed my friends and relatives. You are the source of evil. Even if I, Wang Jiang, can't destroy you, the general will destroy you sooner or later.

It was getting dark. More than 60 people in Wang Jiang and his party returned to the East Valley with more than a dozen dead rabbits. There were also four brothers and guardians in the East Valley with more than 100 war horses.

"Brothers barbecued all the rabbit meat, had a big meal tonight, and then we moved overnight!"

"Good, good! I can finally eat cooked food. It's a little disgusting for me to eat raw meat these days.

"Yes, have a good meal!"

There is only a dim starlight left in the night sky, and everything is so dark.

Under the tiger prison, tens of thousands of people of the Qing army have carried the ladder and stared at it.
