Chapter 1053 Crossing the River to North Korea

After that, the Jianzhou soldiers had no corresponding resistance.

Looking around, there were Jianzhou soldiers fleeing all over the mountains and plains. There were not too many cavalry of the Qin Army, and they couldn't catch up. They had to gallop to Hetuala at full speed under the leadership of Luo Rong, and attacked the city with all their might, beheading the Jianzhou soldiers in the city.

Most of the wounded soldiers in the city were unable to resist at all. After a few guards were killed, most of the wounded soldiers were just fish on the chopping board to be slaughtered.

After Ma Chong arrived with the main force, he chased and killed the fleeing Jianzhou soldiers. Chu Ying couldn't bear to watch the clansman being killed, but it was impossible to stop the Qin army's actions, so she had to take her relatives The soldiers yelled everywhere to throw away their weapons and knelt down and refused to kill, hoping to save more Jianzhou soldiers.

Hetuala was soon occupied by Luo Rong. There were not many people in the city, and they were all wounded soldiers. Luo Rong didn't let them go, and killed them all. He wanted to burn Hetuala, but considering that Chu Ying might still be there in the future. Here became the leader of the Jianzhou Guard to win people's hearts, so he didn't do this and kept Hetuala.

However, the army composed of 5000 Jianzhou strong men was defeated, with heavy casualties. There were only more than [-] surrendered soldiers who were taken in by Chu Ying alive, and the others either died or fled.

Ma Chong quickly ordered to stop the pursuit and line up again, let the pursuit come to an end, and came back to count the battle damage and spoils, and register them.

In the afternoon of the next day, Chu Ying made sure that Nurhachi was not found among the living and dead, but found Anfei Yanggu whose head had been broken. This discovery made Ma Chong very dissatisfied.

As the leader of the Jianzhou Wei Jurchen, Nurhachi's importance is self-evident. To catch him and kill him is the biggest result of this war and to achieve their strategic goals. Now that Nurhachi is still alive, how can Chu Ying do it? The leader of Jianzhou Guard?

Can more than 5000 surrendered troops make Chu Ying the leader?
And really did it.

Chu Ying came forward and played the banner of Nurhachi's eldest son, saying that he was here to punish Nurhachi and not them, and reassured them that as long as they surrendered, they would not be killed and they could get food. Chu Ying ordered to distribute food to them.

Those who have food and drink will not die, and these prisoners will settle down, and then complain to Chu Ying, saying that their family members are in danger in the rear, they want to go back to find their family members, they don't want to fight, beg Chu Ying took them to find their family members.

This is right in the arms of Ma Chong and Luo Rong.

They also wanted to find those Jianzhou tribesmen who had migrated away, after all, weeds had to be eradicated.

But where did they go?

So at this time, Aqina, who had found a place to hide during the chaos in the military camp, appeared again. He was escorted by several Qin soldiers to Ma Chong and Luo Rong, saying that Mao Wenlong asked him to come to Ma Chong and Luo Rong report.

Ma Chong and Luo Rong had no doubts, because Mao Wenlong was not a famous general, but just an unknown young general around Ma Chong. There was no other way to know his name except seeing him with his own eyes.

Immediately afterwards, after Aqina showed the black water card and reported Mao Wenlong's name, they believed Aqina.

Aqina said that Mao Wenlong wiped out a detachment of the Jianzhou tribe and asked him to report back to disrupt the will of the Jianzhou army to resist. Now it has succeeded.

However, Nurhachi arranged for the troops to go southward in seven routes, three of which headed towards Changbai Mountain, and four of which headed further east. The Jianzhou tribe still existed and had not yet been defeated. Mao Wenlong should pursue Changbai Mountain now, and the army should go south immediately.

Ma Chong and Luo Rong were overjoyed and prepared to lead the army in pursuit, but Chu Ying looked a little worried.

"What's the matter, Chu Ying? You don't look very good? Are you worried that Nuerhachi hasn't been caught?"

Ma Chong asked Chu Ying.

"No, General Ma, I have some bad premonitions."

Hearing this, Ma Chong frowned.

"How to say?"

"Why are they going to Changbai Mountain? If they really want to escape, they should all go east. How could they go to Changbai Mountain? Changbai Mountain is indeed a sacred mountain for our family, but behind the mountain is the Yalu River, and further south is North Korea. They have nothing else. The road is gone, do you plan to be trapped in the mountains?"

When Chu Ying said this, Ma Chong and Luo Rong also felt strange.

"Indeed, there is no road behind the mountain. They don't really plan to confront us in Changbai Mountain, do they? There is no food in the mountain. How can they feed tens of thousands of people? Isn't that suicide? If you want to escape to any place, you shouldn't go to the mountain. Are you running inside?"

Luo Rong looked at Ma Chong.

Ma Chong frowned and thought deeply.

Changbai Mountain, Yalu River, North Korea, south...

What's wrong?
Less leaning, Ma Chong stared.

"They don't want to cross the river to North Korea, do they?"

"Crossing the river to North Korea?"

Luo Rong and Chu Ying were surprised in unison.

Then they realized it wasn't impossible.

Although it sounds strange at first, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed possible.

"I followed the commander-in-chief in Burma, but I heard that His Majesty recruited Nuerhachi and led the Jianzhou soldiers to fight in North Korea. He fought for more than a year. Nuerhachi should have participated in the whole battle. , you should be familiar with North Korea’s route and situation, right?”

Ma Chong looked at Chu Ying.

Chu Ying nodded immediately: "Yes, there is indeed such a thing."

"If you really have nowhere to go, and a dead horse is a living horse doctor, going to North Korea may not be a way out. With the military power of North Korea, how could it be Nuerhachi's opponent? Maybe he can really survive. Could it be that we still have to Another Korean campaign?"

Luo Rong had an incredible expression on his face.

"Impossible, his main force has been defeated, and there are at most a few thousand people he can drive. Even if they go to North Korea, they are just a bunch of bandits, but it will be very troublesome for us. If we chase North Korea, we will not We don't know how long it will take to catch him, and what will happen during the period, we don't know."

Ma Chong frowned.

"Then what should we do? Chase?"

"Chasing is definitely necessary, but just in case, we have to give His Majesty a form first, so that in the worst case, we can directly cross the river and go to North Korea. We must destroy them no matter what, otherwise the North Korean army Nuerhachi is just as powerful as the sea, and let the birds fly! North Korea doesn't know what crime it will suffer."

Ma Chong immediately decided to send the news to Shenyang quickly, and then asked Liao Zhong to submit a form to Xiao Ruxun, asking Xiao Ruxun for a solution.

Afterwards, Ma Chong immediately rectified his troops and asked Luo Rong and Chu Ying to lead the vanguard of [-] cavalry to pursue southward. Chu Ying was the guide and led the [-] cavalry to the direction of Changbai Mountain. He rectified behind and then went to the direction of Changbai Mountain .

Qin Jun had no time to celebrate the victory of the battle, so he rushed to Changbai Mountain.

If Jianzhou soldiers were allowed to go to North Korea, it would be another big trouble, and they would inevitably have to deal with North Koreans.
