Southern Ming, my destiny is too abstract

Chapter 94 Why did the Jurchens fight against the Jurchens!

Chapter 94 Why did the Jurchens fight against the Jurchens!
Shangshan felt uneasy.

Not counting the wooden village in front.

Suddenly, dozens of torches were lit up in the forests on both sides of the road.

The light of the torches flickered like stars, tightly surrounding the Eight Banners cavalry.

"Damn it, there are more than a hundred Ming soldiers here."

Shangshan looked at the numerous shadows of people and trees in the forest, swaying in the interlaced light of the fire and the moon.

Just a quick glance.

There are no less than three or four hundred of them.

If the barbarians in the village also colluded with the Ming army.

That's thousands of soldiers.

Fortunately, there were two Ming soldiers who made Shangshan feel a little relieved. The former rode around the wooden village on horseback and shouted, asking the people inside not to open the door to let the Qing army in.

Well, if it were just a few hundred Ming troops.

It's not like my 380 Banners cavalry are invincible.

If we delay for more than half an hour, Doron will be here.

Can’t four Niulu Eight Banners soldiers wipe out this Ming army?

By then, even if Zhu Cixuan ran away.

They joined forces with the Wuerte troops and Yue Abi to block the attack in Xinping County, Eshan.

Zhu Cixuan couldn't escape even if he had wings.

However, the words that followed from the Ming soldiers made Shangshan's heart sink completely.

"People in the village, we are the Ming army."

"It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty who personally went to Xinxing Prefecture to kill the enemy."

"You should remember Lei Yuelong from your Xinxing State, Elder Lei."

"A few days ago, he also returned to the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty."

"In the near future, our Great Ming army will recapture Yunnan and Yunnan."

"Now, follow us to annihilate this Qing army, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will reward you handsomely."

"Even if you just stand guard and watch, we won't blame you."

Shangshan immediately sent out a dozen cavalrymen to chase and kill the two Ming cavalrymen who were shouting.

I kept hoping that the barbarians in Muzhai would not reply.

However, he was doomed to be unlucky tonight.

In other words, the probability that the Han and Yi people in Xinxing Prefecture do not know about Lei Yuelong is almost zero.

If a place produces a cabinet minister, it is bound to have benefited from it to some extent.

Even local gentry would visit the families of Jinshi.

The Ming Dynasty also revered child prodigies.

The child prodigy Zhang Juzheng passed the imperial examination at the age of 23.

Everyone in his hometown knew Lei Yuelong, the young Jinshi who won the title in the Wanli period.

He was an honest official and repaired the Yuxizhou Bridge for his hometown and built the Amitabha Temple and Gushan Temple.

Forty years had passed since he became an official through the Jinshi degree, and became one of the most powerful ministers in the Yongli Dynasty.

It has long been a legend in the emerging states.

Someone on the wooden fort's arrow tower shouted, "Are you talking about the Leishi Temple in Gaocangtun?"

Shang Shanqing knew something was wrong and immediately called his attendants over.

"We can't wait for the barbarians in the wooden village to raise an army. We must charge out immediately."

Shangshan thought about it for a moment.

It is unknown whether Wuerte and Yue Abi's troops have arrived at Xingyun Lake at this time.

Only Duolong, who was twenty or thirty miles behind, could save him.

"You two will each lead five or ten households and fire arrows and muskets on both sides to cover the main force returning north."

Shangshan's confidant bowed and accepted the order, then ordered his troops and rushed towards the torches that were approaching on both sides of the official road.

The sounds of explosions and shouts of killing immediately disrupted the tranquility of the moonlit night.

Shangshan led the remaining two hundred people of Niulu and rushed directly back the way they came.

The Ming army was obviously wary of the Qing army's return.

Countless Ming soldiers shuttled through the woods like nimble ghosts, aiming arrows and muskets at the official road.

Facing the dense rain of arrows and stones, Shangshan saw the golden armored chariots mentioned by Duolong's army.

The Crown Prince of Ming, Zhu Cixuan, led dozens of cavalrymen to block the official road.

"court death!"

Shangshan didn't care about Zhu Cixuan's exaggerated force.

If he didn't rush over to join Duolong at this time, he would be hunted down by the Ming army.

The official road is not long enough for hundreds of cavalry to charge.

Shangshan led the Eight Banners cavalry in a long snake formation and drove straight towards the Ming army that blocked the road.

However, before the vanguard cavalry could draw their bows and shoot arrows.

A long spear slashed across dozens of steps, striking an Eight Banners cavalryman and pinning him to the ground. Under the moonlight, the two Eight Banners cavalrymen behind him were caught unawares and tripped over the spear, triggering a series of reactions.

The continuous attack of more than a dozen long spears instantly halted the Qing army's charge.

Several generals of the Ming army, led by Zhu Cixuan, counterattacked the Qing army.

Watching Zhu Cixuan throw out a few pieces of jade, he knocked the fully armed armored cavalry to the ground.

Shangshan couldn't help but rein in his horse and asked the Eight Banners cavalry to stop.

Aren’t Wu Sangui and Duolong exaggerating?

Zhu Cixuan's martial arts skills are truly unparalleled.

More than unparalleled.

Shangshan knew that Zhu Cixuan liked to hit people with jade.

But even if you are extremely strong.

It's not possible to make the armored cavalry fall to the ground by just swinging it.

You can throw out three or five jade stones at once without even aiming or exerting any force?
The reason why Shangshan stopped was that he watched two Eight Banners cavalrymen fall to the ground uncontrollably just because Zhu Cixuan's jade stone brushed against their armor.

The official road was only three meters wide, and Zhu Cixuan drove his car across it alone, so the Eight Banners cavalry had no chance of getting through.

The four or five Ming army generals around him were also very terrifying.

Apart from occasionally dodging the Qing army's arrows and using long spears and lances, the Eight Banners soldiers were no match for them.

Even Bai Wenxuan, the defeated general at Yumen Pass, was very excited at this moment.

If it weren't for the lack of artillery.

If the official road wasn't narrow.

Shangshan has nine ways to kill Zhu Cixuan and the arrogant Ming generals.

Shang Shan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go back, through Xinxingzhou, and meet up with Wuerte at Xingyun Lake."

His trusted aide suddenly pointed behind him and said, "Master Beizi, it's no use. Those barbarians have come out of the wooden village and are blocking the official road."

Shangshan turned his head immediately upon hearing the sound, and saw the barbarians in the wooden village pushing out horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts, completely blocking the official road under the command of the Ming army.

Even under the constant calls of the Ming army soldiers, hundreds of barbarians armed with bows and arrows and muskets ambushed behind the carriages.

What made Shangshan curse even more was that after Muzhai and others drove out, they closed the gate of the village again.

Eliminate the possibility of the Qing army seizing the stronghold and holding it.

Shangshan immediately looked around and pointed to a hill where there were fewer Ming soldiers with torches.

"Abandon the horse and seize that hill."

"Just wait for half an hour, and Doron will be here."

With the trees blocking the way, Zhu Cixuan and Hu Yiqing, who was good at throwing the spear with brute force, wouldn't be able to do anything violent.

Shangshan led the remaining one hundred or so Eight Banners soldiers into the mountains.

Relying on iron armor and heavy bows and arrows, they gained a moment's advantage and drove away the Ming army on the hill.

After annihilating the remaining Eight Banners cavalry, the Ming army slowly exchanged fire with the Qing army in the mountains and forests.

And Duolong did not disappoint Shangshan's hopes.

In less than half an hour, they arrived here.

However, Shangshan's whole day of surprise and shock was nothing compared to seeing Duolong leading his troops here. He happily dismounted and greeted Zhu Cixuan in the carriage.

A thought flashed through Shangshan's mind.

The entire city of Kunming was filled with people, and Duolong had no chance of escaping Zhu Cixuan's surprise attack.

He, a descendant of the Eight Banners and Duoduo's adopted son, surrendered to the Ming Dynasty!
Not even just him.

And there was Albi, and the entire Third Class of the Zhenglan Banner, all of them surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

The Zhenglan Banner that arrived here was very excited and cooperated with the Ming army to attack the hill.

When the Blue Banner soldiers who were hiding and defending on the hilltop saw this, they suddenly burst into laughter and started shouting and fighting in confusion.

With the addition of thousands of Zhenglan Bannermen, the Manyi, after being shocked at first, also joined the Ming army in the attack along with Duolong and others.

With a siege force of nearly two thousand people, the remaining dozens of Qing soldiers were completely wiped out in an instant.

He saw that the torches of the Ming army were not far away from him.

Shang Shan, who was hit in the chest by an arrow from a Qing bow, lost all his strength.

Kneeling on the ground dejectedly.

Did the two yellow flags really force the two white flags to this point?

When was the last time the Jurchens fought against the Jurchens?

Shangshan vaguely remembers the story his father told him.

Emperor Taizu unified Jianzhou, defeated the Haixi Jurchens, and annexed Yehe Nara.

That has to do with the Battle of Sarhu, which led to the rise of the Qing Dynasty.

It seems like forty-three years.

Shangshan finally struggled to raise his head.

Several torches were raised around him.
