Chapter 258 Luoyang Jing'er
Beijing has been besieged for several days, but the city is so tall that Huo Yandegang can't attack half of it at all.
Because of Li Wen's disappearance, Huo Yande just had a discussion with the group of generals and came out that he and others were trapped by Li Wen. Huo Yande couldn't help but be furious. Now he can't leave or go back. He is in a dilemma.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty."
Huo Yande was already very upset. At this time, he heard a personal guard rushing over from the outside and shouting him. He was even more impatient and scolded, "What's the matter?"
The personal guard took a few breaths and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, it's not good. The enemy reinforcements are coming, and there are 30,000 to 40,000 people!"
"What!"
Not only did Huo Yande just exclaim, but also the generals around him stood up and were stunned.
Huo Yande just shouted, "Where have they been now?" The guard was still gasping. It can be seen that he had been running for a long time before he came back. He said, "I'm going back to the king. When the little one came to report, it was said that there were still fifty miles away, but now I'm afraid it's getting closer and closer. And it is said that the people who came are all cavalry!"
A general shouted, "It must be the soldiers and horses transferred by the giant deer, it must be. The giant deer heard that Chen's soldiers were 80,000, and we besieged Beijing, which made Na Dorgun transfer the soldiers and horses who besieged the giant deer back. Previously, the soldiers and horses in Beijing were empty, but now we have transferred 30,000 lions. We are definitely not the opponent. King, let's withdraw our troops!"
After the general said, another powerful general retorted, "The king is now at the same time, and he can't retreat. We have fallen into the trap of Li Wengou thief. I'm afraid we can't get out of it. It is said that only 30,000 enemy reinforcements have come, and we also have more than 30,000 troops. What are they afraid of? Mongolian iron riders are invincible in the world!"
"Yes, yes, I saw that the reinforcements were defeated. Then Dornon in Beijing must be afraid. Maybe he will automatically open the gate and surrender. If we don't fight, maybe we can win."
"Yes, how have we Mongolian iron riders ever been afraid of others? A hundred years ago, Mongolian iron riders were invincible all over the world. How would they send some sahs?
"The king can't! Let's retreat! The tara is powerful and fierce, which is not what we can beat. What if the Qing soldiers and horses in the city attack again when the reinforcements fight?
"The king can't retreat!——"
"The king retreats!--"
“——”
Now Huo Yandegang only feels that there are countless mosquitoes in his ear that keep 'buzzing', and his mind is extremely uncomfortable, as if it is going to explode.
"Retired, or - don't retreat?"
Huo Yandegang has encountered a very difficult decision now.
"Report! King, the enemy reinforcements will arrive in 30 miles!"
The guard rushed into the tent, ignored the noisy generals, and shouted loudly.
"What! There are still 30 miles!"
Thirty miles is not far for the cavalry at all, and it will be reached soon.
"Your Majesty, it seems that we can't retreat. Now we absolutely can't retreat. Once we retreat, the enemy's reinforcements will definitely pursue us. We still have a large number of infantry, which will be defeated by the enemy!"
"Your Majesty, now the plan is to gather all the troops and fight with the Qing army reinforcements!"
"Your Majesty, no, the Qing army is powerful and can't be defeated by us. If you don't surrender, the Qing army will definitely forgive me."
As soon as Huo Yande heard the words, he immediately said angrily, "The Qing army will definitely forgive you, but I will definitely be killed!" What's the use of you, you coward?
I only heard what he just said. At this time, a general with a gloating face and respectfully said to Huo Yandegang, "Your Majesty, yesterday I saw him write a letter and sent it to him. I thought it was sent to the Mongolian family, but now it seems that it must be sent to the city of Beijing to beg for surrender. In exchange for glory and wealth, the king must not tolerate such villains!"
As soon as Huo Yande heard this, he was furious and said, "Someman pulled it out and cut it!"
As soon as Huo Yande spoke, he immediately paralyzed the man and shouted, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, your understanding!" How dare you contact Manqing, the king!"
But how can Huo Yande be upset? How can he listen to him? He didn't even look at it at all. He waved his hand. The four guards were pulled out, and soon there was a scream outside. Then it didn't take long for a guard to bring up a head on a wooden plate. It was the person who had just been pulled out and beheaded.
"Gather troops!"
At the time of incense, the 30,000 troops scattered outside Beijing quickly gathered and stood together neatly to meet the coming enemy. Huo Yande had just rushed up on his own horse, leading more than a dozen former generals to stand in front of the 30,000 troops. At the same time, Huo Yandegang did not forget to arrange troops to watch your Beijing city to prevent a sudden attack!
After all, if you are attacked by the enemy, it is a taboo for soldiers. Even if you don't know the art of war, you know that it is a taboo to be attacked on both sides.

There was a sound of horseshoe. Before the Chu army, which had just rushed to the mouth of the valley, was beaten into a sieve by the sudden cavalry's musket. At the same time, the artillery behind the cavalry also roared one after another, and countless troops were killed.
"No, the valley is blocked, the valley is blocked!"
"There are so many cavalry in the valley, what should I do!"
"Let's go back, go back, I don't want to be here, I don't want to be here--"
The shrill sound, the call, and the cry suddenly resounded through the valley.
"Kill!!"
With an angry shout, the 3,000 cavalry at the mouth of the valley ruthlessly slaughtered the Chu army who wanted to rush out of the valley. Once the front was tired, the back would go up to replace it and cycle in turn. The 3,000 cavalry were not killed or injured much, but the Chu army was seriously injured.
At this time, Wu Sangui finally realized that something was wrong and regretted why he didn't listen to Ma Bao's advice just now.
Ma Bao! It's Ma Bao again! Wu Sangui scolded fiercely in his heart.
A cold wind blows, and the smell of blood spread all over the valley. The originally dry yellow valley has now turned red, as if it were covered with a layer of red carpet, and as if the sea of blood was beating on the shore.
Blood is sprinkled all over the valley.
On the top of the mountain, the military squiror Chen Liu swayed slightly with a feather fan, and Ma Peng stood next to him in turn. Looking at the corpses under the valley and the blood flowing all over the ground, Ma Peng couldn't help licking the corners of his mouth and said, "The military master is really a good strategy. This time, even if the 30,000 troops of Wu Sangui are not completely annihilated, they must have been killed and injured. It's good to bring back more than 10,000 people."
Chen Liu smiled and said, "Thanks to the fighting spirit of the soldiers who are not afraid of death. Otherwise, how can there be such a result?"
Ma Peng smiled and said, "Military division, what do you think will happen to Wu Sangui next?" Chen Liu laughed and said, "Wu Sangui is not stupid. After all, he is a general in a hundred battles. How many battles have he has fought. This time, he was just overwhelmed by his own atrodity, and he didn't understand our strength and the power of our improved musket. Otherwise, how can Wu Sangui get into the trap so easily and let us catch the turtle in an urn?
Ma Peng laughed and said, "Hahahaha, the military division is really an ordinary person. You must be the only one who made a great contribution this time!"

Luoyang
"This is a secret letter from the regent to you. You have been lurking here for so long and have won the trust of Liu Xia. Now that you are in power, you will definitely succeed." In a secret room in a certain house in Luoyang.
Another person frowned, took the secret letter, opened it directly, and then read it again. Suddenly, he said bitterly, "I'm afraid it won't work. You know that the Zheng Palace is tightly defended, and others can't approach it at all."
The masked man was silent for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid of this. Naturally, the prince has a way. Two hundred warriors have been secretly arranged in Luoyang City, which are in the house in the east of the city. As for the defense of King Zheng's Mansion--"
The official looked at the masked man doubtfully and asked, "What should I do?"
The masked man said, "Huh, Liu Xia thinks he is the most powerful in the world. How can he know that there are people we have arranged in the Guard Brigade. Although the position is not high, it is now the defense of Luoyang City. After Liu Xia left, the Guards also left. Now the defense of Zheng Wangfu has been taken over by the captain of the city gate, and naturally some of us will transfer those soldiers. At that time, you just need to--"
