Chapter 751

The banner of the Zhijin Dragon Banner is full of Baya La Qing soldiers with top helmets and armor, there are dozens of them, and among them is a Qing general in gilt armor.

He is quite tall and strong, with a rough rectangular face, which looks extremely heroic. The only fly in the ointment is the sinisterness in those mouse eyes.

"How is King Gongshun's injury?" Dorgon asked calmly, looking at the two hundred or so Mingqi not far in front of him.

E Keqin immediately said: "Go back to Uncle Wang, the last general has gone to see it, the tip of the spear pierced through the rib armor, and passed by the flesh, although the blood is profuse, but it will not hinder your life."

"I heard you hurt your head too?"

"Yes. When King Gongsun was picked off his horse by Yang Guozhu, he knocked his head and it has been bandaged."

"Hmph. A trash!"

Dorgon scolded in his heart, and showed a look of disgust on his face, but he said softly: "Go tell King Gongshun, ask him to cultivate well, and when the fighting here subsides, I will visit you in person again." .”

"Yes"

Er Keqin received the order with a respectful expression, then turned and left.

Dorgon walked towards the horse. He took the reins from the Bala warrior, stepped on the stirrups, got on the horse, and rode to the opposite side where the Ming army knights were.

Dozens of Ba Yala Tartars followed the guards, stepping on the dry and hard hills and slopes, raising a puff of smoke.

…………

Here is a continuous hilly area. The wormwood in the low-lying places is close to the waist, while the high place barely reaches the knee position. The hot summer wind blows, and the wormwood is low and rustling.

However, Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of Xuan Town, was not in the mood to savor the natural music played by the wormwood in the wind. He stood beside the horse, so that the horse, which had been galloping for a long time, could relax its legs and come back to prepare for another battle.

He stared at the golden dragon banner slowly moving in the distance, feeling mixed emotions in his heart. This time when he returned to his former residence in Liaodong, he often thought of his brother and nephew who died in the war.

Death, Yang Guozhu is not afraid!

However, looking back at the more than two hundred family members behind him, they are all young, in their 30s and [-]s, and they are the pillars of the family.

And these servants have followed him for many years, and now Yang Guozhu only wants to lead them to find a way out, one more escape is one.

He saw that the golden dragon banner stopped about 150 paces away, it seemed that Dorgon only brought ten Ba Yala Qing soldiers, and the rest were waiting [-] paces behind Dorgon.

From this, it can be seen how sincere Dorgon was in recruiting Yang Guozhu, but Yang Guozhu was unmoved. He looked coldly at the Qing army Bayala who was rushing over there.

"Master, did you shoot him?"

Yang Guozhu shook his head slowly, and said flatly, "No need, let's see what he has to say."

Then, he urged in a soft voice: "Tell the soldiers to eat some dry food, and feed the horses some beans, so as to slow down their strength."

"Yes."

The soldier retreated quietly, and the Qing army Bayala had already run forty steps away. After he stopped his horse, he shouted loudly in his not very fluent Chinese: "The Qing Dynasty and Prince Shuorui, please ask Marshal Yang, the commander-in-chief of Xuan Town of the Ming Kingdom, to come forward and answer."

Tan Zhenlin, the head of the hundred personal soldiers, came forward and said: "Master, let's take the brothers to rush up and capture that slave chief?"

Yang Guozhu turned his head and glared at him, saying, "Nonsense."

Turning back to look at Qingqi who was not far away, he said again: "Go, tell the Tathie, the commander will meet him later."

Tan Zhenlin agreed, and walked nearly ten steps forward before shouting back.

At this time, the soldier who had gone down to deliver the order just now came back and asked beside Yang Guozhu: "Master General is going to meet the slave chieftain, can you bring more brothers."

Yang Guozhu looked at Tan Zhenlin who was walking back, and said lightly: "No need, Dorgon only brings ten people, don't let him underestimate us!"

He went on to say: "Xiao Tanzi, you bring nine people, follow me to meet the thief Dorgon."

After Yang Guozhu said that, he walked towards the horse. He got on the horse, rode the horse in a circle, and scanned the rest of the soldiers.

Finally, his eyes stayed on the soldier who reminded him to bring more troops, and he said in a deep voice: "Huang Baozhong, lead all the soldiers to guard here, and wait for me to meet the slave chiefs!"

…………

Dorgon rode his horse under the banner of Zhijin Longzhu, looked at Yang Guozhu who was slowly galloping, and felt admiration in his heart.

The reason why he wanted to recruit Yang Guozhu wholeheartedly was actually selfishness. He wanted to use Yang Guozhu to recruit Yang Guozhu to damage the morale of the Ming army and guide other Ming army generals to surrender.

But at this moment, seeing Yang Guozhu also leading the Ming army of ten riders to talk with him, he couldn't help feeling admiration, thinking to himself that there are not many famous generals like Yang Guozhu.

In this way, the more Yang Guozhu refused to surrender, the more he wanted to recruit to surrender. It was like a strange circle, an infinite loop!
When Yang Guozhu rode his horse to a standstill more than forty steps away, Dorgon said with a smile: "It's really not easy to see Zongbing Yang riding today."

Yang Guozhu also replied with a stiff smile, "It's hard to meet King Ni."

"Hahaha……"

Dorgon laughed instead of anger when he heard the words, he laughed and said: "In the winter of the third year of Chongde, I met General Yang in Julu. Unfortunately, things started in a hurry, and I didn't get to meet General Yang, but I really admire him in my heart." Endless."

He went on to say: "A great talent like a general is underestimated by the mediocre monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty. How can this king bear it? According to this king, General Yang would not give up on me, let alone make a general soldier." , even if Yang Shuai is made king, hereditary will not replace him, and Yongzhen will be one side, is it necessary?"

Yang Guozhu watched Dorgon talking eloquently, but never answered. His idea was very simple, that is to try his best to delay the time so that the generals under his command could have a breathing space.

Until now, after listening to Dorgon's nonsense, he said: "Prince Rui can value me, Yang Guozhu, so much, I am really grateful.

However, although Guozhu is a rough person, he also knows the word loyalty and righteousness. Since his heart belongs to Daming, he has no other intentions. He was born as a man and lived between heaven and earth. How can he be a second minister? "

He paused a bit when he said this, looked at Dorgon with determination in his eyes, and said: "Besides, this is the place where my brother died, how could Guozhu live alone!"

He reckoned that it was almost time, so he reined in his horse and turned his head after saying this, wanting to leave.

Although Dorgon only thought about Yang Guozhu's determination, he didn't want to give up, and he still shouted: "General Yang, walk slowly, even if you don't think about yourself, you should also think about the thousands of soldiers under your command.

But General Yang nodded in agreement, and our warriors of the Qing Dynasty withdrew immediately, and all the ministries were still under the command of General Yang, without a word! "

Yang Guozhu had already turned around, but when he heard the words, he turned around and said loudly: "Since he can fight with me, he will know that today will happen. If he has any complaints, he should go to Abi Hell to find his commander.

There is no need for Prince Rui to worry! "

After he said this, he urged the horse to leave. Although the sound of the horse's hooves stamping on the ground was not very powerful, there was an indescribable sense of oppression in the invisible.

…………

Dorgon knew that Yang Guozhu would never surrender, and he did everything he could to save face at the moment, whether it was three rejections or three requests, or even personally coming forward to make the fourth request.

Looking at the back of Yang Guozhu riding away, he said: "Send the order, the whole army is ready."

"Woooooooo..."

The horn sounded everywhere, and the soldiers of the Qing Army Zhengbai Banner around the hills immediately cheered up and got on their horses one after another.Prepared for battle.

At this time, Yang Guozhu rode away for more than ten steps, and heard the melodious sound of horns in his ears, and he guessed that the Qing army was about to launch a counterattack.

He hastily shouted to Tan Zhenlin beside him: "Communication, the whole army is heading south!"

After hearing the order, Tan Zhenlin didn't have time to say anything else. There were whistles from the horse galloping, and in a short while, he heard the message from Qiu Ling that they had received the military order.

On the other side, Dorgon seemed to have expected that Yang Guozhu wanted to break out of the siege, and when the whistle sounded there, the drums and trumpets rang together.

The officers and soldiers of the Qing army with the white flag gathered around the hills rode up one after another, and rushed towards Yang Guozhu's place like wolves and tigers.

Here, Huang Baozhong knew that the situation had changed when he heard the whistling of the whistle, he hurriedly ordered all the knights to mount their horses, and rushed to the south of the hill first, trying to clear the way for Yang Guozhu and others.

For a moment, the dust was flying, and if you looked down from the sky, it was like a big trap outside with an arrow inside, the smoke and dust billowed and moved, and the elite knights of the Ming and Qing Dynasties fought at close range again.

Huang Baozhong took the lead bravely and shot several arrows head-on, but he ignored them completely. He saw that his body was on the horse's back, swinging left and right with the rhythm of the horse galloping, and he dodged most of the arrows.

He held the gun with three eyes in his hand, aiming at a Tartar cavalry in front of him, with a "bang", with the flash of fire, a deadly bullet was shot out from the muzzle.

"Bang... bang... bang..."

There was a burst of three-eyed blunderbuss explosions, with arrows flying "嗖...嗖...嗖...", and knights fell from both sides of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The originally peaceful hilly area has once again become a killing field, and began to harvest healthy lives one by one!
…………

After Tan Zhenlin led nine fine cavalry to guard Yang Guozhu, everything went smoothly, but there was still some gap between them and the Ming cavalry in front.

Seeing the knights of the Qing army with the white flag on both sides riding their horses towards this side, their intention is very obvious, that is to penetrate the gap and separate Yang Guozhu and others from the cavalry in front.

He shouted loudly: "Donkey ball, even if you fight today, you won't be able to make the Tartars win..."

Tan Zhenlin was about to urge his horse to charge up, but Yang Guozhu yelled behind him: "Turn west, don't fight recklessly!"

Although he couldn't understand the deep meaning of it for a while, he habitually obeyed Yang Guozhu's military order, immediately turned the horse's head around, and turned towards the west while stabbing diagonally.

Yang Guozhu is worthy of being a veteran who has experienced many battles. He just glanced at the surrounding situation in his eyes.

At this moment, the Qing Army's Zhengbai Banner's Tartar cavalry were all around, but Dorgon's back and the east were the most, but the south and west were less Tartar cavalry.

Therefore, Yang Guozhu saw that the way ahead was about to be blocked by Tartar thieves, so he ordered Tan Zhenlin to break out to the west. It can be seen that General Zhenshuo is not in vain!

About [-] paces to the west is a hilly highland. According to Yang Guozhu's intention, he ran to that hill first, and then decided where to break through after observing the details of the surrounding Qing army through the terrain.

But when they were less than [-] steps away from the hill, they saw a recognition flag erected high on the hill, and about [-] Tatar cavalry also showed their figures at this time.

In fact, a cunning person like Dorgon would not easily leave a loophole for Yang Guozhu. The reason why he deployed relatively few Qing troops in the south and west was that he left behind.

After Yang Guozhu saw the figures of the Qing army in Zhengbai Banner, he felt sad: "Unexpectedly, I, Yang Guozhu, was destined to die here!"

But it's not his character to be caught without a fight!

Yang Guozhu shouted loudly: "Boys, it is a blessing for Yang to be able to kill slaves side by side with you. Today may be the last battle. I am willing to live and die with you!"

Tan Zhenlin immediately answered the words and shouted: "I am willing to follow the general to kill the slaves."

"Kill the slave...kill...kill the slave..."

…………

Xuanzhen General Guo Yingxian led two troops of more than a thousand cavalry, outstripping the encirclement of the Qing army in the blue flag of Anping Beledudu, galloping along the mountains and hills beside the mountain road.

He also took in some scattered routs along the way. Occasionally, he encountered a team of Tartars. When they saw the formation of Mingqi here, they also retreated one after another. Knowing that their strengths were too different, they did not dare to provoke them.

At this moment, Guo Yingxian rode his horse on a mountain ridge and saw the smoke and dust billowing in the southeast direction. He guessed that there must be soldiers from his own side fighting with the Tartars. Although he couldn't be sure it was Yang Guozhu, at least they were soldiers from Xuanzhen.

He hurriedly led the army to rush, and when he was halfway through, he met two of Yang Guozhu's servants. After questioning, he learned that they had just been separated from Yang Guozhu and others hundreds of steps to the southwest.

Guo Yingxian was eager to save Yang Guozhu, so he immediately thought of saving Yang Guozhu first, and then returning to the army to save the Xuanzhen soldiers and horses here. With this in mind, he immediately led more than a thousand elite riders and ran to the southwest.
He galloped on his horse, and not long after, he saw Yang Guozhu and more than [-] cavalrymen from the Town Standard Battalion on a mountain ridge, less than two miles away.

Guo Yingxian was about to lead his troops forward and joined Yang Guozhu to fight against the Tartars, when he saw Yang Guozhu leading dozens of horses away from the main formation.

Guo Yingxian wasn't sure what the state of Yang Guozhu's side was like for a while, so he planned to continue to observe for a while, and after seeing the situation clearly, he went to join Yang Guozhu's department.

…………

Zhang Cheng, the deputy general of Xuanzhen, led the Jingqi of the Xuanbei Army under his command after beheading the Batu Luzhun Tower of the Qing Dynasty and defeating nearly a thousand Zhengbai Banner Qing soldiers under his command.

Without any delay, they rushed northward along the mountains and hills on the east side of the mountain road. At the same time, they sent out cavalry in a team of ten or 20 people to scout out where Yang Guozhu's town standard battalion soldiers were.

As the military reports of the rangers in front continued to come back, Zhang Cheng led nearly two thousand elite riders gradually approaching the place where Yang Guozhu was besieged.

When Yang Guozhu and Dorgon were talking across the air, Zhang Cheng was on a high hill to the south of it. He held up a binoculars to look at Yang Guozhu and Dorgon, who were about two miles away.

It wasn't until he saw Yang Guozhu's soldiers from the Zhenbiao Battalion riding horses to attack the Tartar army formation that he felt relieved, and immediately led his fine cavalry to meet up.

Zhang Cheng held the rein in his left hand to control the horse, and with his right hand he had drawn out a short pistol. He shouted loudly: "Boys, go up and kill slaves side by side with Yang Shuai!"
