Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 145 Loyalty King Datou, Good Minister Lu Sanhao (Luo Luo thanked the leader Jin Duoduo)
"Shikai, look quickly. Everyone has turned to the northwest, let's follow suit!"

It was none other than Dai Zi, the firearms expert, who proposed to Wang Zhongxiao to turn to the northwest with the brigade of the Eight Banners soldiers.At this time, Dai Zi had already followed Wang Zhongxiao back to the col where they first deployed the artillery.

After commanding the artillery to fire all the explosive shells with sixteen General Weiyuan cannons, Dai Zi and his men were led by Wang Zhongxiao and others to run back to this col.They waited here for less than half an hour, when there was a thunderous sound of hooves outside the mountain depression, and countless Eight Banners horse soldiers ran along the official road outside the mountain depression towards Fushun County in the northwest.

Dai Zi, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, saw this scene and couldn't wait to run along with her.

But Wang Zhongxiao was calm and calm, without a trace of panic—what was he panicking about?The Wu Guogui who commanded the Wu army to win the great victory in Daguan Town was his father-in-law, how could he be killed and let Xiaotu become a widow?

But Wang Zhongxiao doesn't plan to vote for Wu Sangui right now. It's not because he looks down on Wu Sangui, but because Wu Sangui is really not a great hero. Even if he can create a new dynasty, he is probably a weak Song Dynasty, even the market of Ming Hongwu It's not something an old traitor like Wu Sangui can do.

So Wang Zhongxiao still wants to create a new situation with the third prince Zhu, Chen Yonghua, and Yang Qilong!
But to create a new situation, he had to sneak back to Beijing first, and then go south to Guangdong.

After this battle of Daguan Town, Wu Sangui had successfully opened a "Little Weekend", and the chaos in the world had officially begun.

Next, if there are no accidents, Wu Sangui will probably launch the main attack in Sichuan and Shaanxi, and launch auxiliary attacks in Guizhou and Huguang.

And with Wu Sangui's enmity in Sichuan and Shaanxi, Wang Zhongxiao and his "living Lv Bu" father can also pick up a good situation of "slowly becoming king" in Guangdong for nothing.

However, it is still a little difficult to slip away from this battlefield where the army has been defeated like a mountain. It is not safe to rely on the method of following the crowd.

Although Wu Sangui didn't have any great talents, the generals under his command were quite powerful... Especially Wu Guogui, Ma Bao and Wu Shicong, the three of them probably wouldn't let thousands of Eight Banners soldiers escape from the battlefield of Daguan Town.

"We can't go with the big guys!" Wang Zhongxiao shook his head, "Brother Wen Kai, didn't you notice something was missing on today's battlefield?"

"What's missing?" Dai Zi asked.

Wang Zhongxiao said: "The bamboo spear cavalry is missing!"

"That's right." Dai Zi was taken aback, "Shi Kai, do you think they want to ambush us?"

Wang Zhongxiao nodded, with a solemn expression: "It's probably the case. So we can't follow the crowd, or we will be ambushed by those bamboo spear cavalry, and we don't know how we died!"

"Then, where are we going?" Dai Zi panicked.

Wang Zhongxiao smiled and said, "Wen Kai, just follow me and I will definitely protect you."

What he said was "protect you well", but he didn't say "take you back to Beijing".Such a firearms expert can't hand it back to Kang Mazi at all.

Dai Zi nodded, and cupped his hands at Wang Zhongxiao: "Then please take care of everything."

"Okay, wrap it on me!" Wang Zhongxiao patted his chest, then glanced at Dai Zi again, and found that the firearms expert who had managed to find an eighth-rank sesame official was still wearing his beloved official uniform, so he shook his head Said, "Wen Kai, your official skin is too conspicuous, you have to take it off quickly."

"Yes, yes!" Dai Zi expressed admiration, "Brother Shikai is still very thoughtful."

As he spoke, he swiftly took off his official uniform and hat, but he was reluctant to throw them away, and wanted to roll them up and take them away.

But Wang Zhongxiao waved his hand and said, "Wen Kai, you don't need to bring it. You don't need this official uniform anymore!"

"Why don't you need it?" Dai Zi was taken aback.

Wang Zhongxiao smiled wryly: "If the battle is like this, we all have to be punished. I am a second-rank official, and if I am demoted, there will always be a fifth or sixth rank. You are an eighth-rank official, so you will be gone once you are demoted?"

"I..." Dai Zi burst into tears when he heard this.

It's not easy for him to be an eighth-rank official!I have excellent skills, and my family spent a lot of money. After I arrived in Beijing, I was always looked down upon by people. The Han civil officials thought his tricks were all tricks, and the banner officials thought that he, a Han, studied firearms. Is it because he wants to rebel? ?Even a foreign devil like Nan Huairen looks down on him from the bottom of his heart. He doesn't believe in God!

This time, I finally got a chance to serve with the army, but I didn't expect to lose the battle. The merit was not reaped, but the officer who finally got it had to give it to me.
Seeing that he was about to cry, Wang Zhongxiao smiled again, and comforted him: "Don't be sad, isn't he just an official? Wen Kai, don't forget, yesterday afternoon you shot the flower bomb to Fei Yanggu's leadership. On the top of your Eight Banners vest, Prince An and Vice President Fei both didn't bother with you at the time because the battle was not over! When you look back and find someone to blame, if you only lose an official, you can still keep your head. Go to Ninggu Pagoda, then have fun!"

yes!This is a bit of a pot to lose my head!When Dai Zi thought of this, his face turned pale with fright.

And he also thought about this matter, Wang Zhongxiao seems to have a share in this murder, so it won't happen to him, right?
Wang Zhongxiao looked at Dai Zi's frightened face, and said to him with a pleasant face: "Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and it is the time when heroes are born. Brother Wen Kai's ability is still there, so I am not afraid of not having an official. There is no need for the imperial court." You, I can recommend you to my father. Or don't go back to Beijing, go to Guangdong to be an official!"

What?Go to Guangdong to be an official?Dai Zi was stunned when he heard this.how to do thisThe governor of Guangdong and Guangxi has no right to appoint officials at all. At most, Dai Zi can be a master. If Dai Zi is to be an official, he has to go through the path of recommendation and selection. He still has to go to Beijing once!

Unless Wang Fuchen also wants to open an official shop in Guangdong
Thinking of this, Dai Zi shuddered, and hurriedly bowed to Wang Zhongxiao: "Zi has been wandering for half his life, and only regrets that he has not met the Ming Lord. If you don't give up, Zi is willing to follow him!"

"Okay!" Wang Zhongxiao nodded, "Wen Kai, you will be part of my family from now on. After arriving in Guangdong with your ability, isn't it safe for a department head with the title of magistrate?"

A department head with the title of prefect?When did the head of the department become an official?Dai Zi was startled again.Local officials changed the official system without permission, and even appointed and dismissed officials without permission. What is this trying to do?Want to rebel, or want to set up a feudal town?

As soon as he thought of this, Wu Bing's slogan suddenly sounded.

"Qingtian is dead, Zhoutian should be established, and the land will be divided, and the world will be safe"

Dai Zi trembled for a moment, and bowed again: "Thank you, young master, for my humble post!"

Sure enough, he is a smart man!Wang Zhongxiao thought to himself: You are such a smart person, but you have been reduced to exile in the officialdom of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. It is really difficult for Kang Mazi to be an official!
Thinking of this, Wang Zhongxiao turned his head and said to Yu Haitao: "Dahai, you take Wen Kai first, let Wen Kai pretend to be my master, and then find a chance to lead him to Guangdong!"

"Yes!"

"Da Lei," Wang Zhongxiao said bravely to Wang Lei again: "Lead the way to Anxi Town!"

Earlier, Wang Leiyong helped Wu Shijue go to Fushun County to grab salt wells, so he was very familiar with the terrain in this area.

So Wang Zhongxiao had already planned the evacuation route with him and that Lu Sanhao.The evacuation route they arranged was not to take the official road northwest of Daguan Town and retreat directly to Fushun County, but to pass through the ridge east of Daguan Town, and then go northeast along the edge of the ridge until they ran to the bank of the Tuojiang River. small town Anxi.

And Lu Sanhao will pull the old superior Li Tianyu to find the boat that was prepared in advance, and wait for them in Anxi Town
Anxi Town is just an ordinary deserted small town in Sichuan, long gone.

Lu Sanhao parked two wooden boats at the ferry pier on the north bank of the Tuojiang River in the north of the town early.

Yesterday morning, he asked Le Erjin for an errand, and then together with Li Tianyu, he led two or three hundred green battalion soldiers from Gansu to search along the Tuojiang River.

Finally, last night, I found the pier in the north of Anxi Town and found the two wooden boats.

But because they only found two wooden boats, which were not enough to build a pontoon bridge, Lu Sanhao and Li Tianyu did not return to Fushun County, but set up a temporary camp at this ferry for the night.

At the same time, Lu Sanhao also sent two of his servants to cross the Tuojiang River by boat to inquire about the military situation.

As a result, before noon today, the shocking news came!

Wu Sangui's stroke was really easy!

What's more, he led 2 people out of Nanxi and went straight to the battlefield of Daguan Town, and even subdued [-] green battalion soldiers on the way!Then this Wu Sangui marched overnight, heading towards Daguan Town.Count the time, it's almost here now!

"It's over, it's over. It's all over now! The rebels in Daguan Town originally had [-], and now there are [-] more, and they are still attacking back and forth. Thousands, there are only fifteen thousand, thirty-five thousand and fifteen thousand, and Wu Sangui. It's over!"

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Lu Sanhao's calf trembled, and he was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. While analyzing tremblingly, he also shed tears of sadness.

Li Tianyu was also dumbfounded, "How could Wu Sangui recover from his stroke?"

"What a stroke. He's pretending to be sick!" Lu Sanhao cried, holding his head, "What should we do if we were both deceived by him? I, Lu Yifeng, am sorry for the emperor and the court. I want to jump into the river. Who are you?" don't stop"

After being reminded by him, Li Tianyu also slumped on the ground.

Lu Yifeng was just an alternate magistrate, and he was also an elected official in the west. He had no duty to monitor Wu Sangui, so it was not unusual for him to be deceived by Wu Sangui.

But Li Tianyu is different!He is the governor who was sent by the court to Yunnan to watch over Wu Sangui!In the end, he was deceived by Wu Sangui, and even the wise and martial Emperor Kangxi was implicated because of his ignorance, and he was fooled by Wu Sangui together!

This is wronging the country and the king, and it is a crime worthy of death!
Thinking of this, he didn't cry or make a fuss, he walked to the pier step by step, and when he got to the edge of the rolling Tuojiang River, his heart swelled, his teeth clenched, and he was about to jump down.Just as he was about to dance, someone grabbed his official uniform.

Li Tianyu looked back, it turned out that Lu Yifeng was pulling him.

Lu Yifeng said: "Futai. The water is cool!"

Li Tianyu replied with tears: "Mihao, this is the end, do you think I still have a way out?"

"Yes, there must be." Lu Yifeng said, "If you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. Even if you are exiled to Ninggu Pagoda, there is still a chance of recovery! Besides, although Qingtian is not dead now, Zhou Tian is already standing. Woke up!"

Li Tianyu was taken aback, "Mihao, what do you mean?"

Lu Yifeng said: "Futai, when it comes to familiarity with Pingxi's vassals, the imperial army of Guangdong and Guangxi is number one, and you are second!"

After being surrounded by Lu Yifeng, Li Tianyu really felt that he still had a way out, so he gave up the idea of ​​jumping into the river in fear of crime.He thought for a while, then said to Lu Yifeng: "Three friends, then let's stop looking for a boat and go back to Fushun County first."

Lu Yifeng waved his hand: "Futai, let's wait."

"What are you waiting for?" Li Tianyu asked.

Lu Yifeng said: "Maybe there will be defeated soldiers coming from the direction of Daguan Town, let's save one of them!"

"Will the defeated army from Daguan Town come to Anxi Town?" Li Tianyu asked, "Can't they go north along the official road to Fushun County?"

Lu Yifeng shook his head: "Futai. I'm afraid Wu Sangui still has an ambush!"

"There is still an ambush?" Li Tianyu took a breath, "Is this Wu surnamed too ruthless?"

Lu Yifeng's guess was right, Wu Sangui did have another trick. How could he not?Wu Sangui took Yue Le's military strategy and studied it with his generals and staff for many days before he came up with a highly targeted plan.How could he let go of thousands of Eight Banners vests?

If you miss this opportunity, there will be no easy victories in the future!
As for Yue Le and Fei Yanggu, they also knew something was wrong at this moment because when they ran away from the battlefield of Daguan Town, they were not chased by Wu Jun's sharpest bamboo spear cavalry.

So their retreat was unexpectedly smooth, and they quickly fled along the official road to the vicinity of Rongxi Bridge. It is impossible to cross the bridge directly, because there is a hollow phalanx composed of 500 people led by Wu Yingqi to the south of Rongxi Bridge. It's in the way!

Of course, Yue Le and Fei Yanggu, who ran all the way from Daguan Town, didn't want to attack with force. They only had three or four thousand left on hand. Morale was low, the team was scattered, and even the Eight Banners vest, which was already in chaos, had no power to fight at all. up.

However, they can still bypass this phalanx and swim across Rongxi from the west of Rongxi Bridge.
And the Qing army on the side of Fushun County saw the defeated soldiers led by Yue Le and Fei Yanggu from a distance, and they had already set out to line up on the north bank of Rongxi River, waiting to meet the defeated army—if the one blocking the Rongxi Bridge If the Wu soldiers dared to disband the phalanx, the Qing army on the north bank of the Rong River would have an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Yue Le and Fei Yanggu breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the various Qing army flags flying outside Fushun County. In any case, their lives were probably saved. Most of the more than 3000 full and Mongolian flags that followed them Can return safely.

As long as these old foundations are still there, there will always be Eight Banners Han troops and coated slaves.
As soon as the two of them thought of this, the banner gates at the south corners of the Wu Bing phalanx blocking the way suddenly opened, and then they saw a brigade of bamboo spear cavalry coming out of the banner gates, standing on the official road and on both sides of the official road. On the flat ground, two rows of assault teams were launched one after another.

Now the hearts of Yue Le, Fei Yanggu and the Eight Banners soldiers who followed them all the way were broken!
"My lord, don't worry, wait for the humble job to open a bloody path!" Fei Yanggu was still a little brave, and drew out his waist knife at that time, and put on a posture of wanting to fight the opponent.

But none of the Eight Banners disciples behind him agreed with him. After running all the way, they didn't have much horsepower left, and they still rushed like this?Besides, when they were running just now, many Eight Banners soldiers thought their long spears were in the way, so they all discarded them. Now they use short knives to confront the enemy's bamboo spear cavalry?To die?
Just when this group of Eight Banners boys couldn't muster up the courage to fight, Wu Jun on the opposite side had already started to beat the drums of charge!
With the sound of war drums, all the cavalry with bamboo spears started to ride forward!
Prince An Yue Le didn't know what to do?It is impossible to rush over. But if you want to run, you don't know where to run?
Even though this prince was also battle-hardened when he was young, he has always fought with the wind. He has never been the only one who chased others to slash.

Just when the prince was at a loss, Fei Yanggu, who was next to him, had already reacted, pulled his rein violently, and then shouted: "My lord, come with me, let's escape to the mountains!"

Yes, flee to the mountains!
Yue Le also woke up, and he can still drill into the ravine!It's still Fei Yanggu, a young man who is smart and has a future!The current Qing Dynasty needs a new generation of generals like him who can not only win battles, but also be good at escaping!

Thinking of this, Yue Le didn't pretend to be loyal any more. He drew out his saber and pointed at the nearby hill, shouting, "Followers of the Eight Banners, follow me. Go into the mountain to suppress the thieves!"

He also went into the mountains to suppress the bandits. Yue Le didn't know if he was talking nonsense or kept saying this "line" so smoothly.

"Whoo!"

Seeing that there was still room to run, the soldiers of the Eight Banners at the bottom regained their spirits, shouted and followed Yue Le and Fei Yanggu to the nearby forest.It really looks like going into the mountains to suppress bandits.
It's a pity that they didn't last long, because Wu Jun's 1000 or [-] bamboo spear cavalry had already launched an assault, just like more than [-] fierce tigers, killing the Eight Banners soldiers who were heading into the mountain with their heads covered.

However, although the assault force of these bamboo spear cavalry was strong, they still failed to stop Yue Le and Fei Yanggu from "fleeing through the mountains" - the mountains here are short and long, and there are many roads in the mountains, so you can wear them casually passed.

After crossing the mountain, Yue Le and Fei Yanggu, who had temporarily escaped from their pursuit, led about [-] defeated troops all the way to Anxi Town.
At the same time that Yue Le fled to Anxi Town, Wang Zhongxiao and the others had already arrived one step ahead, and they were crossing the river in batches by boat!
