Biography of Ilha in Qing Chuan

Chapter 93

"Uncle, is this..." It was the prince who spoke.As early as a month ago, when the army had not arrived in Zhaomodo, Suo'etu had ordered people to withhold part of the grain and grass. At that time, Kangxi did not expect Suo'etu in the capital to be so bold. The military supplies did not keep up with the large troops.

Suo'etu had already calculated the time, and it is estimated that the army far away in Zhaomodo is almost out of food and grass.If it hadn't been for the case of the Jiangnan Examination Center and the snow disaster in Zhili, he and the prince would not have taken such a risk.The reason why the Holy Majesty did not pursue Zhili's disaster relief funds was because the expedition was imminent and the crown prince needed to supervise the country.There are priorities, and the Holy Majesty doesn't want to have another detail at this juncture.As long as the army returns victorious, no one can say whether the Holy Majesty will settle accounts later.

"Your Highness, we have reached this point and we have no way out. You must not be kind to women."

After the prince heard Suo'etu's words, the hesitation that had just arisen in his mind was suppressed again.Yes, now that he has reached this point, how can he retreat.Think about the elder brother who went out with Huang Ama. If he returns victorious, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold him down. Besides, there are things about Jiangnan and Zhili.

The prince took a deep breath, pressed the thoughts in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Then do everything according to what uncle said." The prince returned to Yuqing Palace at night thinking of Kangxi who raised him since he was a child, thinking of himself and the emperor. Ama got along with each other bit by bit, and sat alone in the study for most of the night.

At this time, Yinzhen was fighting hard with Gerdan's ambush army.The rain on the grassland was still falling, and the thick ink-like clouds pressed low on the distant skyline, as if within reach, and lightning bolts like silver snakes flashed across the clouds.There was a sound of horseshoes in the distance, and as the sound of horseshoes became louder, a cavalry unit with a large number of people appeared in everyone's sight.Although he had expected to encounter an ambush, Yinzhen still did not expect Galdan's cavalry to arrive so quickly.

Looking at the galloping cavalry, Sabusu ordered loudly: "Rush over!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers immediately opened their posture at the fastest speed, and after a sharp whistle, they rushed towards the galloping cavalry team. The speed of the horses was not slow at all, and the two sides were confronting each other again. , Almost in the blink of an eye, above the wilderness, two streams of iron collided head-on!The thunderous sound of horseshoes suppressed all the screams and exclamations. The thrilling screams and the muffled sound of sharp knives piercing the skin can be heard endlessly.The cavalry who rushed to the front fought with the cavalry of the opponent, and after a while, countless people fell off their horses!

Because the terrain is unfamiliar and the soldiers are not used to the rainy season on the grassland, the army on the West Road has always been at a disadvantage and can only fight and retreat.

"Fourth elder brother, going on like this is not an option. We definitely won't be able to hold out for long. Let's ask for help from the central army on the Holy Majesty's side." Sabusu also had no choice.The situation is critical, and now there is still a prince in the army, if something goes wrong, it doesn't matter if something happens to him, I'm afraid that the whole family, young and old, who are far away in the capital will suffer along with him.

"General, how many cavalry do you think there are in Galdan?" Yinzhen asked after observing the battle ahead.

"It's hard to say. It's hard to see too far away in this kind of weather, and the cavalry of Zhungeer has always been famous for their strange movements. It's really hard for us to estimate how many rebels there are."

After hearing what Sabsu said, Yinzhen looked at the soldiers who were fighting in front, his eyes were condensed, and he said coldly: "General, let's send out the signal." Fu turned around and shouted to the soldiers behind him: " Brothers from the Fourth Battalion follow me! If we make a way out, we will be able to join the army, otherwise we will all be buried in this grassland, and our wives, children, and children are waiting for us in the capital. You are all from our Qing Dynasty Batulu will definitely kill all of these rebels."

Hearing Yinzhen's voice, the soldiers in the back cheered up their sluggish spirit a little. Seeing Yinzhen rushing forward with his legs clasped in the stirrups after speaking, they also held up the military flags and held up their swords to urge their horses to follow. Yinzhen charged the rebels together.

The Qing army in front was almost unstoppable and defeated after the first charge!When the two armies first collided with each other, the one who charged at the front managed to maintain a complete charge formation to block the charge momentum of Galdan's cavalry. The queue was immediately cut off by Gerdan's cavalry!
After the team was pierced through, every one of the Galdan cavalry showed cold and fierce eyes, and swung their sabers, harvesting the heads of the Qing cavalry heartily. Those soldiers who were knocked off their horses in the first wave did not even There was no chance of turning over and escaping, and he was trampled into meat by countless horseshoes of the brigade of cavalry who rushed up immediately!
Yinzhen leaned on the horseback and galloped forward with cold eyes. When he rushed into the battle field, there were metal crashes and the wailing of wounded soldiers everywhere.Yinzhen fought with the enemy with a long knife in his hand. At this moment, his five senses, which are different from ordinary people, finally helped him a lot, allowing him to escape the attacks of the opponent's cavalry time after time.

Maybe it was because of his clothes that he could see his position in the army. The opponent's cavalry concentrated their forces to attack Yinzhen's side. Gradually, as more and more Qing soldiers fell, Yinzhen's situation also changed. It's getting more and more critical.

This round of charging left Sabusu with a moment to breathe. Sabusu quickly took out the signal flare and ignited it. With a sharp sound, colorful smoke rose high into the air and dispersed, "I hope the other two roads The army can see it, right?" Sabusu muttered to himself looking at the slowly dissipating smoke.

The East Route Army where the third elder brother and the fifth elder brother belonged did not see the distress signal of the West Route Army because they were far away, and the Central Route Army saw it because it was not far from the West Route Army.

But now the atmosphere of the Central Route Army is very cold and condensed, because Kangxi fell ill.During the march a few days ago, due to the shortage of food and grass in the army, Kangxi and the soldiers shared weal and woe and only ate one meal a day, and drank unclean water.
