Chapter 725 Assault on Pujin Pass
Saharcha's Kakamu, the manchu general, is Jiala Ezhen of the Xianghuang Banner. Like Shu Mulu Tantai of the Zhenghuang Banner, after Haoge failed in the battle for the throne, he turned his back on Haoge and turned to Dorgun's Minister of the Two Yellow Banners one.

Dorgon trusted him very much and sent him to Puzhou to garrison. After he arrived in Puzhou, he did his best to guard against the Wei army in Guanzhong.

Now he has been guarding Puzhou Mansion for a year and a half, but there has never been any mistakes.

Of course, this has something to do with the Wei army in Guanzhong maintaining a defensive position and having no intention of advancing into Hedong, and it also has something to do with the Qing army not planning to attack Guanzhong from Pujin.

The defense of the Qing army in Puzhou Prefecture is mainly divided into three parts, the pontoon bridge, Pujin Pass and Puzhou Fucheng.

Among them, Pujin Pass is the most critical. There are cliffs on both sides of the Yellow River. When it reaches Puzhou, the water slows down. Pujin Pass is built along the river.

The Qing army stationed 1 troops in Puzhou Prefecture, including 7000 soldiers from the Green Battalion, 500 soldiers from the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and 500 soldiers from Manchuria.

Kakamu put 100 Qing soldiers in the bridgehead fortress, including 3000 Green Battalion soldiers, [-] Eight Banner soldiers, and [-] soldiers in Pujin Pass, including [-] Eight Banner soldiers, and the rest were stationed in Fucheng.

Why not station heavy troops at Pujin Ferry, or Pujin Pass, because there is no need for that, and there cannot be so many soldiers and horses.

Puzhou is located at the southern foot of Luliang Mountain and the eastern foot of Zhongtiao Mountain. It is located between the two mountains. In front of Pujin Pass, there is only a small river beach. The beach can accommodate up to 4000 people, so [-] defenders are enough to deal with it.

In addition, there is a beacon tower in Guancheng, and once the beacon fire is released, the soldiers and horses in Fucheng can be killed in one day. It is impossible for the Wei army to capture the pontoon bridge, cross the Yellow River, and take Pujin Pass in one day.

From Kakamu and Dorgon's point of view, Puzhou's defense can be described as impenetrable. Unless the Wei army can fly, they will not be able to defeat them.

On the night of June [-]st, on the east bank of the Pujin pontoon bridge, soldiers of the Qing army carrying torches patrolled the bridge and were heavily guarded. On the west bank of the pontoon bridge, the fortress of the Wei army was also dotted with torches.

On both sides of the pitch-black Yellow River, torches echo each other, and the two armies have lived in peace for more than a year.

Tonight, the soldiers of the Qing army were patrolling as usual. Suddenly, the leader stopped and looked back at the dark bridge.

"What about the general?" The patrolling Qing soldiers couldn't help but stop when they saw the leader standing still.

"Damn, I seem to see something, it's frighteningly scary." Boss shook his head, "I'm on duty every night, I'm too tired, I need to rest, my eyes are fucking dazed!"

The green battalion soldiers were just dawdling, and they didn't want to see what happened, thinking that they were dazzled, and the hell.

After listening to the general's words, the soldier glanced at the pontoon bridge extending into the darkness. It was pitch black, and a gust of wind blew in. He couldn't help shivering, "Boss, don't scare me!"

Putting a contemptuous smile on the face of the chief executive, "Look at how cowardly you are!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and continued to lead his subordinates on a tour, but within two steps, he stopped again.

"Fuck, there's something there!" Boss turned his head suddenly, staring at the pontoon.

The fellow Green Battalion soldiers were taken aback, and turned their gazes back to the pontoon bridge connecting the two banks. The other end seemed to be connected to ghosts and monsters.

This time, not only the chief saw, but also other soldiers found that there was indeed a black figure running on the other side of the bridge, and the bridge deck was shaking slightly.

"No, the Wei army is going to sneak attack on the pontoon bridge!" The general manager was the general manager. He was the first to react, but instead of forming an formation to block the enemy, he took the lead and ran to the east bank.

More than a dozen patrolling Qing soldiers shouted and ran, and when they reached the bridgehead fort, they had already alarmed the defenders guarding the fort.

The Baqi Zuo who was in charge of guarding the bridgehead led the soldiers to climb up the fort wall quickly, and the soldiers lit up torches to illuminate the fort brightly.

Hundreds of Qing troops on the wall stood ready, their bows and arrows were stringed, and their cannon coats were uncovered, all aiming at the pontoon bridge.

"What's going on?" Zuo Ling stood on the wall of the fort and yelled at the dozen or so Green Battalion soldiers who ran down the pontoon bridge.

The boss explained: "My lord, there is movement on the pontoon bridge. The Wei army seems to want to seize the bridge."

Zuo Ling stood on the wall of the fort and looked at the pitch-black pontoon bridge. He didn't see Wei Jun rushing over. He frowned slightly, "Zhou Lao Si, are you sure? Go and have a look!"

The general under the fort's face was pale and full of panic. He was sure that a large number of Wei troops had appeared on the bridge. Wouldn't he be sent to his death now?Straight mother thief, what kind of grudge does I have against you?
Seeing that the general was unwilling to check, the assistant leader on the wall's expression darkened, "Fourth Zhou, you want to disobey!" Several Eight Banners soldiers suddenly pointed their arrows at the green battalion soldiers under the fort.

Seeing this, several of his subordinates showed panic and cursed inwardly, "The Eight Banners of Donkey Day want to kill me."

Under the majesty of the Eight Banners, Ba Zong had no choice but to grit his teeth and call his brothers to walk to the pontoon bridge with spears, bows and arrows.

Everyone moved forward cautiously, but as soon as they got on the pontoon bridge, they saw flames rising into the sky from the west bank.

Basum and his subordinates couldn't help being stunned for a moment, they couldn't believe it and asked, "Burning the bridge?"

The leader of the Eight Banners on the fortress saw the fire on the west section of the pontoon bridge, frowned, and immediately called a soldier, "Hurry up, report to Ezhen."

Kakamu's rank in the Eight Banners is not high, and he is only a middle-level figure in Beijing, and he is overwhelmed by many people.

In Puzhou Mansion, he was like a local emperor, he could intervene in military and political affairs, and no one dared to disobey his will.

At five o'clock, when the sky in the east turned white, the cavalry at the ferry rushed to Fucheng. The cavalry got off their horses in front of Kakamu's mansion, and hurriedly said to the guards: "There is an urgent military situation to be reported to Ezhen."

Yesterday, Kakamu slept with another Han woman. She was very tired and was woken up early in the morning, which made him feel very unhappy.

After a few years in customs, life got better, and before he knew it, Kakamu's body was hollowed out by wine, fat was put on his waist, and his face was a little swollen.

Although very tired, Kakamu got up when he heard that it was an urgent military message sent by the ferry, put on his clothes, and came to the festival hall to meet each other.

"Report to Erzhen, the Wei army who crossed Pujin to the west bank burned the pontoon bridge!" Seeing Kakamu come in, the Eight Banners soldiers who reported the letter hurriedly reported.

Kakamu was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, "Will the Wei army burn the bridge? Are they convulsing?"

"It's absolutely true, Zuo Ling and we saw the bridge burned by Wei Jun with our own eyes." The Eight Banners soldier replied.

Kakamu frowned slightly, then suddenly laughed, "Haha, I will know. It must be the troops of King Zhuang and King Su who threatened Guanzhong. Wei Jun couldn't stand it. He was afraid that the court would attack Guanzhong from Shanxi, so he burned the bridge. So concentrate on dealing with the troops of King Zhuang and King Su!"

Kakamu felt relieved all of a sudden, it seems that he can enjoy himself for a while.

Three days later, on the banks of the Luoshui River in Tongzhou Prefecture, three thousand soldiers of the Wei army stood by the pier and were lining up to board the boat.

Huang Bingzhong and several generals stood on the shore, clasped their hands to Yi Dao and said: "General Yi, it's up to you!"
