Chapter 992
The Ming army first pushed forward across the board, and after the arrival of the main force of the Wei army, they hurriedly lined up.

The soldiers of the Ming army suffered a surprise attack from the Wei army's horse army before the formation was completed, and then collapsed in the volley of gun formations in the west.

In the wilderness, there were scattered and fleeing figures everywhere. Yan Yingyuan's robe was stained with blood, and he rushed out on horseback, followed by dozens of cavalry, and the Wei army chased him all the way.

Yan Yingyuan rushed left and right, and suddenly reined in his horse by the river, his eyes fixed on the surging river, the cavalry behind him were all blood-stained in their armor, and reined in the restless horse.

At this time, there was a rush of horseshoes, and dozens of Wei army cavalry chased after them. The Ming army cavalry saw this, and their faces were shocked. A thousand generals yanked the horse's reins, "Go, general!"

After speaking, he led more than ten riders, pulled out his horses and charged back, facing the pursuing Wei Jun.

Yan Yingyuan continued to gallop westward along the river bank under the guard of two cavalrymen. The cavalrymen behind him were all stabbed off their horses when they confronted the Wei army for two rounds.

Wei Jun pulled out the reins of his horse, held up his lance, and said, "Chasing!"

Dozens of cavalry left the corpses of the Ming army behind them and continued to chase forward. Not long after, they met two more Ming soldiers who were still stabbed to death by the Wei army.

Alone, Yan Yingyuan galloped west for several miles, and the sound of hooves approached behind him. When he was anxious, a small boat approached the shore, and Yan Yingyuan jumped on his horse and boarded the small boat.

The cavalry of the Wei army came after them, and the leader reined in the horse. The boat sailed away, and the bright general, holding an iron gun, knelt on the bow of the boat.

……

Gaoyou, hordes of Ming army captives, lined up in long lines, were escorted northward, while Wei army soldiers marched southward.

In one place on the battlefield, hundreds of Wei soldiers formed a circle, and the soldiers stood holding spears. In the middle, a man in the scarlet robe of the Ming Dynasty sat on the ground, slapping the ground with his palms, crying bitterly, his palms were broken and dripping with blood. I don't know it.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Wei army around did not dare to step forward, because this person had an unusual identity, he was Ma Shiying, the Chief Assistant of the Ming Dynasty.

At this time the crowd dispersed suddenly, and Gao Yihuan, who was in golden armor, rode over and saw Ma Shiying, who was extremely regretful, and couldn't help turning over.

"Why does the Ma Pavilion need to be like this?" Gao Yihuan stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "The Pavilion has already done its best, and the general situation will return to Wei. Why didn't the Pavilion come down sooner?"

Gao Yihuan has some friendship with Ma Shiying. Although Ma Shiying forms a clique and engages in party disputes, and his ability is not outstanding, he still has a bottom line and integrity.

If he is willing to surrender, Gao Yihuan will give him a high position so that he can recruit the Ma Party in the Nanming court.

Ma Shiying raised his head and glanced at Gao Yihuan, but he didn't yell at him. He lost his mind for a while, and then said sadly: "When I was in Shandong, I thought you were extraordinary. I didn't expect you to have achieved what you are today."

Gao Yihuan said: "My heart is in the world, and I want to build an unworldly achievement. If the Ma Ge department joins the Great Wei, the achievements will be extraordinary."

But Ma Shiying shook his head, "A person who misunderstood, how dare he misunderstand others again. My heart is ashamed, I don't want to betray my understanding, I will let you deal with it!"

Gao Yihuan frowned. In history, the Hongguang Dynasty perished and Qian Qianyi surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. However, Ma Shiying held the bottom line and did not surrender when the two anti-Qing regimes in Tang and Lu refused to accept him and rejected him. , Unyielding was killed after a year of guerrilla fighting.

Gao Yihuan stared at Ma Shiying, who had lost all hope, and made sure that he was not refusing to hesitate. After a moment of silence, he waved his hand and said, "Take it down, and don't be disrespectful to Ma Gebu!"

……

At four o'clock, the city of Nanjing was still pitch black, and everything was silent, except for occasional sights of Jinyiwei patrolling with lanterns and the sound of clappers.

The battle between Wei and Ming has affected the whole world. As the capital of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Nanjing has already been rumored, and the patrols in the city are very strict.

Usually when the fifth watch is approaching, people in Nanjing will light lamps, officials are getting ready to go to court, and small shops, especially breakfast stalls, are also preparing to open a movie business, which will gradually become lively, but it is still quiet now.

In the outer city of Nanjing, there were a few sounds of horseshoes outside the city gate, and a general rushed to the city alone.

The sound of horseshoes alarmed the defenders in the city. A hundred households poked their heads out and threw down a torch to see who was coming by the light of the fire.

"Who are you?" Baihu cried out in shock when he saw that the visitor was in a panic, holding an iron gun and covered in blood.

The person under the city was Yan Yingyuan. He raised his head and shouted anxiously: "Quickly open the city gate, I have an urgent military report."

At this time, in the Royal Study Room of the Nanjing Imperial Palace, the lights had been on all night.

The news that Runan fell, and Wei Jun's interlude to Yangzhou has been sent to Zhu Cihong's desk.

In the study room, the eyes of the cabinet bachelors were all red, and Zhu Cihong had a gloomy face, "What do you think should be done?"

Ruan Dacheng said: "Your Majesty, the current situation is not that bad. Although the Wei army broke through Runan and penetrated to Yangzhou, they still have nothing to do with the Yangtze River. If the Jiangbei army can fortify the walls and clear the fields, and defend the city, even if the Wei army occupies Yangzhou, Huai'an and others will be behind. They don't dare to cross the river if the city is not uprooted. In this way, the Wei bandits will still be dragged in the north of the river, and as long as I win in Huguang, I can reverse the unfavorable situation."

Hearing the words, Zhu Cilang calmed down a little, he paced back and forth, and finally stood still and said: "The Qing family is right, as long as the Wei army is held back, the army will win in Huguang, and they will be able to go down the river and reinforce Jiangnan."

Lu Zhenfei worriedly said: "Your Majesty, the key is not knowing the situation in Jiangbei, just in case~~~~~~"

Zhu Cihong's heart trembled. If the Ming army in Jiangbei lost the battle and was annihilated by the Wei army, then Jiangnan would be in danger.

At this moment, the eunuch Lu Jiude suddenly reported outside, "Your Majesty, it is said that there is an urgent military report."

Hearing that it was an emergency military situation, Zhu Cihong and the bachelors in the room were startled, they were afraid of some bad news at this moment.

"What kind of military situation?" Zhu Cihong supported the case with his hands, his face tensed.

"The minister doesn't know, the visitor has already arrived outside the palace!" Lu Jiude said.

Zhu Cihong waved his hands in a deep voice, "Let him in!"

Not long after, Yan Yingyuan, who was covered in blood, entered the imperial study room. Zhu Cihong and others trembled in their hearts. His lips trembled a little. He stood up and held the imperial case again, "This is the Qing family~"

"Your Majesty, Huai'an is over, Jiangbei is over, and the Wei thief is on the river!" Yan Yingyuan knelt down with a plop.

Zhu Cihong had already made preparations, but still felt as if he had been struck by five thunders, his legs softened, and he sat down heavily on the imperial desk, his face pale.

"How could this be? Where's Ma Shiying?" Zhu Cihong's expression turned pale, and he became furious.

"Ma Ge should have been captured!" Yan Yingyuan said in pain.

Hearing this, Ruan Dacheng was so shocked that his face paled, and the few academicians at the side also looked dignified.

Zhu Cihong suddenly yelled and beat his chest fiercely, "Heaven kills me!"
