Chapter 191 Vulnerable

In the 11th year of Chongzhen, on December [-]th, at noon, the sun was in the middle, the sky was bright, and the cold wind was not strong.

In Jize County of Guangping Prefecture, in the camp of Director Gao Qiqian's army, all the commanders of Guan Ning are gathering together. Although they did not go to Julu to rescue Lu Xiangsheng, they are very concerned about the war there.

But the sentry cavalry they sent didn't dare to go far, not to mention spying on the Julu battlefield, they didn't even dare to go out of Jize County, they only wanted to patrol around the camp for dozens of miles.

Gao Qiqian sat behind the first big table, and the brewed tea was placed on the table. He looked at the group of general soldiers below, but he was thinking about the situation on the Julu side.

In his heart, he wanted Lu Xiangsheng's army to be defeated by the Qing army, but also hoped that Lu Xiangsheng would block the Qing army in front of him, which was really contradictory.

Ever since he received Lu Xiangsheng's letter asking for help on the night of the tenth day of the lunar new year, he has been thinking about whether and when he should go to Julu in his heart.

His original intention was to hope that Lu Xiangsheng could hold on with his own strength, and when the Qing army retreated, he would lead the army to rescue Julu and chop off some heads at will.

In this way, there is no risk, and you can gain military merits. You can even write a letter to impeach Lu Xiangsheng for the defeat of the army, so as to show your merits.

Gao Qiqian thought about it here with gusto, on both sides of his lower head, the generals of Guan Ning were also chatting relaxedly, they were chatting about the weather, the scenery, and women.

But no one mentioned the battle at Julu, dozens of miles away, as if the Qing soldiers and Xuan Dajun there were selectively forgotten.

Thinking of the beauty, Gao Qiqian twitched the corner of his mouth, showing a sense of satisfaction, and couldn't help laughing out loud, but he himself didn't care.

Tang Tong, the commander-in-chief of Miyun, and Bai Guangen, the commander-in-chief of Jizhen, looked at each other and exchanged meaningful glances.

From the tenth day of the first lunar month, after Gao Qiqian received Lu Xiangsheng's letter asking for help, their hearts were no longer calm. They knew the strength of the Qing army best, after all they had been confronting it in Guanning for so long.

In their hearts, they were afraid of the Qing army, so they were very worried that Gao Qiqian would be moved by Lu Xiangsheng's letter asking for help, and foolishly rushed to fight the Qing army.

Later, seeing that Gao Qiqian didn't even read the letter, he just threw it aside, everyone felt at ease, only Wang Tingchen, the former commander of the garrison guard, was silent in his heart, he once mentioned the Julu war, Before he finished speaking, he was diverted by Gao Qiqian, and it was inconvenient for him to mention it again after that.

Now that the Superintendent is unwilling to send troops, these general soldiers are even more confident, and of course they are even more unwilling to move. What's more, there are at least [-] Qing soldiers on Julu's side. It's not a joke, who would dare to go?

Even if Wang Tingchen really has a heart of loyalty, he has no intention of sending troops to Julu from the top up to the commander-in-chief's army, down to the town's commander-in-chief. If he leads the army alone, let alone his thousands of troops, what can he do? use?
Even if the battle of Julu is won for just one charge of sending troops without military orders, with the abilities of Gao Qiqian and Yang Sichang, and the degree of their favor in front of Emperor Chongzhen, I am afraid that the lives of Wang Tingchen will be in danger!

Gao Qiqian was unwilling to move, and Guan Ning's army was also happy to move. From this, a strange sit-down war was formed.

Tens of miles away, Zhang Cheng, Lu Xiangsheng and other Xuan troops fought bloody battles with the Qing army. Here, tens of thousands of Guan Ning troops sat guarding Jize, quietly watching a play.

This is the serious behavior of the various warlord forces in the Ming Dynasty. In the future, the Ming Dynasty will form one new warlord force after another. They no longer have a family, a country, a world, and loyalty in their hearts. What they have is how to protect themselves, how to collect money and food, It's just killing the good and taking the credit.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty at this time, the lost literati in the court and the military and warlord groups from all over the world are like a bastard against mung beans, the elder brother does not laugh at the second elder brother is ugly.

They were obsequious to Chongzhen and powerful ministers Guidang, obedient to others, vicious to poor people, and greedy for life and afraid of death when they faced the more brutal Qing army.

What's more, the friendly army was in danger and did not care about each other, dragging the Ming Dynasty to the brink of collapse, just to keep their own little self-interest.

…………

Today, the generals didn't have any major discussions in the high-altitude stealth chamber, it was just a routine discussion, but when he was about to let the generals disperse, suddenly, a sentinel rushed in like a mourning concubine , howling loudly:
"Supervisor, supervising the army, the big thing is not good, the big thing..."

Gao Qiqian's face was gloomy and cold, and he scolded sharply: "I'm in such a hurry, why are you so flustered?"

That night, he knelt down in panic and said: "Julu's Xuan army has collapsed, and the tartars have disappeared!"

As soon as his words came out, it was like a thunderclap on the flat ground, everyone in the Xingyuan exploded with a "boom", and they all started discussing in a panic.

Gao Qiqian sat there with a blank expression, blinked his eyes and muttered: "Where did you go? Where did you go?"

He stood up abruptly, pressing his hands on the table and trembling, he stared and shouted sharply:

"Xuan's army was defeated, where did you know? Where did the cavalry go? Tell me..."

That night, I was at a loss for a while, and hurriedly said: "The little ones were on the lookout in the south and surrounding areas. When camping in the wild last night, we encountered soldiers from Shanxi Town who had fled. Xiang, but I don't know..."

Yebushou said: "He also said that Duchen Lu has been martyred, and the life and death of the military gates of the towns are also unknown. The Xuan army has all fled, and there is not one out of ten."

Gao Qiqian was dumbfounded, and there was no sound in Xingyuan.

Suddenly, Gao Qiqian shouted sharply: "Quick, hurry up! Our family wants to know where the cavalry is? Where..."

At this moment, a few blood-soaked night riders yelled and scrambled into the shaft, shouting in shock: "Supervisor, slaves... tens of thousands of slaves have arrived! A few miles to the north... come to Jize... you can reach it in time..."

Gao Qi's expression froze on his face, he could no longer hold back the fear in his heart, and fell heavily back to his seat.

Wang Tingchen, the former commander-in-chief of the garrison guards, hurriedly got up and said: "The slave bandit group is coming, please dispatch the supervising army quickly, we will definitely be able to hold on to the camp, defeat the slave bandits, and keep the supervising army safe."

Gao Qiqian ignored him, stood up abruptly, and seemed to have exhausted all his strength, screaming and shouting: "Shut up, our family doesn't want to die here! Go, go, go!"

…………

High dive with only a few trusted guards.The first horse rushed out of the camp, tens of thousands of Guan Ning's army hurriedly pulled out of the camp, and fled away in a hurry.

On the vast wilderness to the south of Jize, smoke and dust billowed everywhere, and countless cavalrymen from various towns in Guanning fled.

Behind them, the captive cavalry of the Qing army in various armors chased south and north, not forgetting to howl again and again, which caused the panic of the Guanning army.

"Our army has won a great victory. I never thought that the Guanning armies of the Ming Dynasty would be so vulnerable!"

In the wilderness, a sea of ​​Qing army flags spread out, and under the banners of several golden dragon banners, Dorgon, Hauge and others looked at each other and laughed.
