The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 230
When Jia Ke discovered that the Tatars had opened the gap and wanted to escape, it was too late to stop them.He could only lead the cavalry to follow and kill them. After the Tatars escaped from the encirclement, Arslen Khan did not stay, and led the troops all the way north.

Jia Ke and I led the cavalry to chase after them non-stop. The two sides have been entangled since that day, fighting and stopping, all the way to the north.

When they arrived at Miyun, the Lord of Miyun thanked him at this time, and saw the Tatars retreating from the top of the city, and the soldiers and horses of the dynasty were chasing them, so he opened the city gate and led the rest of the troops out of the city to intercept the Tatars.

Seeing this situation, Arslen Khan was filled with remorse.If I had known earlier, I would have fought to the death to attack the city, and I would have taken Miyun even if I lost some troops.Just for this delay, he would lose an unknown number of warriors.

Arslen Khan has no chance to regret it now. At this time, he led all the generals under him to charge forward and went straight to the master of Miyun to thank him.

Seeing the swarming Tatar cavalry, Xie Wang knew that he couldn't block it head-on, so he had to retreat to both sides to make way for them.But just blocking it for a while bought time for Jia Ke.

Jia Ke quickly caught up with Arslen Khan with his troops, and led the army behind to kill him desperately.This time the Tatar troops were completely in chaos.

Arslen Khan knew that he had to cut his tail to survive, so he ordered his general Bateer to lead 1 horses to intercept Jia Ke from behind.

Battelle scolded his mother after hearing Arslen Khan's order. During this time, he was really disappointed with Arslen Khan.

Although Battle was dissatisfied with Arslen Khan, he had to obey orders at this critical moment, so he turned around with ten thousand cavalry to meet Jia Ke.

Battelle had confronted Jia Ke a few times, and he knew how powerful Jia Ke was, so although he was ordered to intercept Jia Ke this time, he would not fight Jia Ke head-on.

Battelle started to shoot arrows at a distance of one arrow from Jia Ke, but he didn't get close to him, but kept attacking next to Jia Ke's brigade.

Although Jia Ke did not block in front, Battelle also lost a lot of troops under the non-stop attack from the side.It seemed that he had to be dealt with before continuing to pursue him.

Jia Ke ordered Zheng Kai and Xiao Yue to lead 5000 troops each to surround Battelle's army from front to back.The rest of the people, Jia Ke, went straight to Battelle's central army.

When Battelle saw that Jia Ke started to send troops to outflank his team, he knew that it was not good. This time he made a fuss, so if he really wanted to explain it here.Seeing his eyes rolling, he had an idea. Of course, in this case, saving his own life is the most important thing, and I will talk about the others later.

Commander Wan next to Battelle said, "You take 5000 troops to resist Jia Ke. I will lead the team to charge forward and kill a bloody path, and then you will retreat."

After hearing Battelle's words, the ten thousand commander immediately changed his face, "General, you are a bit rude, shouldn't you lead the army to resist Jia Ke now? Why is it my turn now?"

After hearing this, Battelle was furious, and he couldn't help but raise his big gun, and with one shot, he knocked off the captain.Then without explaining, he said to Vice Wanhu next to him: "This person disrespected the military order, and I have killed him now. Now I order you to take 5000 people to resist Jia Ke, and you will never obey."

Seeing this scene, the deputy Wanhu dared to say nothing.Reluctantly, he led 5000 people to face Jia Ke.

After Battelle sent these people away, he looked at the direction and took them, and the rest of them rushed forward.

Standing in front of Battelle happened to be Zheng Kai. Although he was born in a cavalry, his martial arts skills were far worse than Battelle's.

Zheng Kai and Battelle fought once or twice, but they couldn't stand it anymore, so they could only hide aside.Fortunately, Battelle was in a hurry to escape and didn't take him seriously.This allowed him to escape a life.

And the 5000 people who blocked Jia Ke were thrown into disorder by Jia Ke at once, and the deputy Wanhu who was in charge was split in half by Jia Ke before he had time to resist.At this time, Xiao Yue and I came from behind the enemy and surrounded 5000 people together with Jia Ke. It took less than half an hour for them to be killed by Jia Ke.After that, Jia Ke regrouped his troops and chased in the direction Arslen Khan was walking again.

Jia Ke led the men and chased forward for a while, and suddenly tens of thousands of horses rushed out from both sides.

Jia Ke was caught off guard, and was rushed by the opponent, messing up the team, and being attacked suddenly, his own cavalry also lost a lot.

Jia Ke set up the awning and looked forward, only to see a handsome flag in front of him, and under the flag there was a general with golden helmet and armor, which was very extraordinary.There are countless elite guards around him, and this person Jia Ke knows is Meng He.

This is the first time that Jia Ke has been ambushed by someone since he joined the army for so many years. Now the people in Xuanfu Town have been disrupted by the opponent.

At this time, Jia Ke hastily ordered the people under his command to gather the troops, so that the scattered formations began to gather.This shows the benefits of Jia Ke's several modern training in formation.As soon as Jia Ke's soldiers and horses heard the order to assemble, they immediately gathered in the middle regardless of the others. After a while, these cavalry formed a neat formation and faced the Tatars attacking him in front.

At this time, Meng He, the chief general of the Tatars, also felt a little surprised when he saw that Jia Ke's army had regrouped and lined up in such a short period of time.

I originally thought that this time I would ambush and attack suddenly so as to wipe out Jia Ke's forwards. I didn't expect Jia Ke's troops to be so well trained and regrouped in a short time. Now if he attacks again, I am afraid It can only be head-to-head.

After the troops were assembled, Jia Ke urged his horse to come to the front of the battle and shouted to the opponent: "Arslen Khan has been defeated by me, you wait here to stop the heavenly soldiers. It is just an egg hitting a rock, listen to my good advice, and surrender immediately. I guarantee that you will not die. If you don’t listen to my words, you will be in front of the battle for a while, and you will die without a place to bury you.”

Meng He on the opposite side didn't dare to move forward. He knew Jia Ke's bravery, so he sent soldiers to shout: "Jia Ke, don't speak so wildly. Your use of troops is nothing more than that. I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

Jia Ke originally wanted to continue charging, but seeing that his cavalry had been chasing for such a long time, he was very tired. In addition, the opponent was waiting for work. If he fought with him, although he could win, he would suffer heavy losses.

So Jia Ke ordered the troops to rest on the spot to see what the other party was going to do.And Jia Ke led a small number of troops to guard against the battle again.
At this time, Arslen Khan also returned to the front with his troops from the back. This time Arslen Khan suffered a heavy loss. If he hadn't asked Meng He to serve as a reserve team for him in the rear in advance, the Tatars would have been afraid this time. Few can return to the grassland.

Arslen Khan saw that Jia Ke was no longer chasing him, and he was not in the mood to fight him any more. At this time, his troops had already discarded their armor and armor.

So Arslen Khan ordered Meng He to take the tens of thousands of fresh troops to the rear, and the remnants of the defeated soldiers and the population of treasures looted this time slowly retreated northward.

After Jia Ke finished repairing, he brought the cavalry to the front of the formation again, only to see that Meng He hadn't retreated yet.Knowing that the opponent was leaving behind, he ordered the troops to attack.And Jia Ke waved Fang Tian's painted halberd in front of him, and he was about to fight Meng He.

Meng He knew Jia Ke's bravery, and his soldiers might not be able to withstand it, so he didn't fight Jia Ke head-on, but hung from a distance with his horsemanship, and kept shooting arrows.Just profusely delaying time for them.

In this way, the two sides entangled for a day. Although Jia Ke rushed into the opponent's formation several times, his own cavalry failed to keep up. Therefore, although he defeated Meng He this time, he was unable to cause large-scale casualties.

In the end, Meng He retreated slowly, and Jia Ke's own soldiers were exhausted, so they could only follow behind slowly. The two sides did not fight after that, and they just marched northward in such a tacit understanding.At this time Arslen Khan had already fled away with his soldiers and horses.

Jia Ke still has lost ground, especially Beigukou, which is so important.As long as the Beigukou is not lost, the Tatars cannot cross the Great Wall and come to the capital to wreak havoc.And if Beigukou cannot be regained, the Tatars can go south at any time.

So Jia Ke followed Meng He closely, and after another day and night of chasing, Jia Ke finally saw the Guancheng of Beigukou.

At this time, the city gate of Beigukou was wide open, and there was no one around. Jia Ke didn't dare to enter the city rashly. Now he understood, why did Sima Yi plan to make the city hollow?

But Jia Ke was not Sima Yi. A thousand households under them immediately went into the city to see if there were any enemy troops, while he led the army and waited outside the city.

Qianhu, who entered soon after, appeared at the top of the city, shouting like Jia Ke, saying that there was no one in the city.

Then Jia Ke led the troops into the city slowly, after entering Gubeikou.It was found that there were broken bricks and broken tiles everywhere in the city, and the corpses of the people were scattered everywhere. Many women were naked.

Jia Ke couldn't help closing his eyes, and when he opened them, they were already red.Jia Ke calmed down and ordered the whole army to search up and down Gubeikou to see if there were any living people.

At night, those who searched came back to report.There is no living person in Gubeikou, not to mention living people, even the chickens, ducks and other livestock raised by the people are gone.Jia Ke had no choice but to order all the soldiers to collect the corpses of the common people and bury them one by one outside the city.

Jia Ke set up camp at Gubeikou for the time being, and did not continue to pursue north. After all, he used to have guides when he went deep into the grasslands. This time he came to the capital, afraid of revealing his arrangements on the grasslands.So no one brought a grassland person, so if you go deep into the grassland now, you may get lost, and you may not even find a water source.

Jia Ke temporarily stationed at Gubeikou, and at the same time sent a messenger to send a message to the King of Beijing, waiting for the order of the court before making any plans.

Jia Ke only stayed in Gubeikou for four or five days, when the court messenger came, and at the same time, there were 3000 people who came to take over Jia Ke's defense of Gubeikou.

The order of the imperial court was for Jia Ke to hand over the defense of Gubeikou, and then return to the capital immediately with the troops, without any mistakes.After reading the order, Jia Ke knew that something big might happen in the capital.So Jia Ke didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly headed to the capital with [-] cavalry after the handover.

But things were not as Jia Ke thought. When Jia Ke arrived in the capital with his troops, he found that the capital had returned to the state before the war.

Jia Ke sent the cavalry outside the city, and hurried into the city to give orders to the Ministry of War. When Jia Ke arrived at the Ministry of War, not only the Minister of the Ministry of War was there, but even the King of Beijing was waiting for a long time.

As soon as the King of Beijing saw Jia Ke, he hurried forward to greet him. He said to Jia Ke, "I have been looking forward to the return of my nephew for a few days. Today, my nephew arrived, so I let go of my heart."

Jia Ke hurriedly said respectfully: "The Lord Duo Meng misses you, and Jia Ke is very grateful."

"Nephew, you don't need to be so courteous. We have been friends for several lifetimes. You have made great contributions this time, but the emperor will not reward you for the time being. After a few days, the emperor wins the imperial temple. At that time, the emperor will still use you. Don't wander around at home today, after passing the Taimiao, the emperor will reward you a lot." The King of Beijing Jing said a few words to Jia Ke cryptically.

As soon as Jia Ke heard this, she knew that there was a big move.But what could make the emperor so fearful? As the emperor's confidant, what must King Beijing know?
King Bei Jing did not notice the cold light flashing in the eyes of Huo Tu, Minister of the Ministry of War next to him.King Beijing Jing did not shy away from Huo Tu, because he was also the emperor's confidant, otherwise the emperor would not have allowed him to be Minister of the Ministry of War, but he did not expect that Huo Tu had other ideas in mind.

After Jia Ke delivered the order from the Ministry of War, he returned to Rongguo Mansion with his own soldiers.As soon as he entered the mansion, he ran into Lin Zhixiao.

As soon as Lin Zhixiao saw Jia Jiake, he hurried forward and bowed, and then asked with some complaints: "Master, what should you do with the slave you sent before the battle? Now he is at home every day except eating and drinking. He yells, and the master has already asked It has happened several times. If it wasn't for the uncle's special order, the master would have kicked him out a long time ago."

Jia Ke, I just remembered that Ben Bray, who he captured before the battle, was sent back to Rongguo Mansion when he was chasing the Tatars.The people in Rongguo Mansion didn't know what to do with him, so they could only offer food and drink.

"Where is this person now? Take me to have a look." Jia Ke asked.

Lin Zhixiao hurriedly led the way, and said to Jia Ke as he walked, "Master, when your soldiers sent him over, I put him in the stable in the south courtyard. How many vacant rooms are there? He lives here so that he won't bother others."

"Then he should be honest these days?"

"Honestly? Grandpa, don't be joking. These days, whenever he has time, he comes out to make trouble. A few days ago, he took Li Er's wife's weaving cart to play. When he returned it, it fell apart. Li Er's wife came to me. I complained for a while. It's better for me to put the money in the account, and this is the end of the matter." Lin Zhixiao complained.

"Then did he bully or beat others?" Jia Ke continued to ask.

"That's not true. To be honest, this person is a bit naive, but he is a little unreasonable and a little silly."

Jia Ke smiled when he heard his words, thinking that there is no perfect thing in this world, and giving this man an invincible physique that day, but not giving him extraordinary wisdom, was a gain and a loss.

After a while they came to the room next to the stable, only to hear the snoring inside, Lin Zhixiao stepped forward and opened the door.I saw Ben Bray sleeping soundly in it, and there was still leftover chicken on the table next to him.

Jia Ke stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and Ben Bray immediately came to his senses, and his arm involuntarily slapped towards Jia Ke, grabbing lightly with his left hand.Ben Bray couldn't move an inch.

Ben Bray woke up immediately, looked up and saw that it was Jia Ke, he quickly knelt down on the bed, lowered his head, and said embarrassedly: "Master, I didn't do it on purpose. I used to sleep in the wild, as long as something touched Touch it, and I'll punch him right away."

Jia Ke didn't take this to heart, and when she heard that he often slept in the wild, she asked, "Don't you have a family? Do you live in the wild alone?"

Ben Bray said: "My parents thought I ate too much and couldn't work. They kicked me out when I was a teenager. I have been wandering here. Someone prepared food for me a few days ago. , let me fight for him."
