Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 236 Battle of the Former Garrison ([-])
In the turret of the previous city, Yan Yingyuan, who had been exhausted for two days and two nights, finally couldn't bear the fatigue, and under the repeated comfort of two soldiers, he lay down on the board temporarily covered with worn-out bedding in the turret.

After several days of tense nerves, Yan Yingyuan felt how tired his body was when he really relaxed. His whole body was sore, and his eyelids were as heavy as iron stones. After closing them, he didn't want to open them again. He just fell asleep in a daze. .

The three quarters of Yin time is said to be the most exhausting time of the day, and it is also the coldest time of the day.

Inside and outside Qiantun City, everything is silent, and a few stars are shining lonely in the night sky.

Boom—a huge cannon shot suddenly pierced the quiet cold night.

With the sound of a cannon, the gate of Qiantun City suddenly creaked and was pulled open from the inside.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of horseshoes and shouts of killing outside the city came from far and near to Qiansuo City.

Dozens of soldiers opened the city gate and rushed out in a swarm.

"I'm Hu Zihao, I want to see His Royal Highness the Prince of Qing." A young man running ahead shouted at the galloping Tazi army.

But soon these dozens of people were overwhelmed by countless Tartar troops...

The first one to wake up was Chen Mingyu who was under the city. He didn't even take off his armor, and he left the dilapidated house with a knife in hand.

"Lord Chen, Tartars... Tartars are rushing in!" A soldier ran from the direction of the city gate in a panic and shouted when he saw Chen Mingyu.

"What? Isn't the gate of the city sealed? Why did the Tartars rush in?

Hurry up to the city to inform Lord Yan, Xu Erhe, call the soldiers, follow me to meet the enemy! "Chen Mingyu was shocked, but he didn't have time to ask why, since the Tartars had already entered, he had more important things to do.

The city was in chaos, and the tens of thousands of people in the city were also awakened. Fear invaded this small border town, and the people ran wildly in the dark night, hoping to escape from this desperate small town.

"Hahaha, Hannu are indeed people who are afraid of death. This king is worried about being bored for the past two days. Eldest nephew, let's compare? See who kills more?" Azig rushed into the city on his horse.

The panicked people in the city and the soldiers of the Ming army scattered everywhere made him lick his lower lip unconsciously. In his eyes, the city was full of poor lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and he was a hunter holding a butcher knife.

"Hmph, Azig, don't pretend to be a calf in front of the king, I will go first!" Haoge was also itchy from the panic of the lamb, and he had no time to pay attention to Azig, drew his sword and rushed into the crowd.

"Fire the arrow!" Chen Mingyu's voice suddenly came from the darkness.

shhhhh--

Ah - Hauge, who had just rushed to the center of the city with his troops, was caught off guard by a burst of arrow feathers, and even Hauge himself was shot in the thigh by an arrow.

Chen Mingyu stood behind a row of crossbowmen holding a saber in his hand. In an emergency, he only came to gather less than 1000 people, and the rest fled in all directions. But where could they go?

The only exit was continuously pouring in groups of Tartar soldiers, and the entire former city fell into hell on earth in an instant.

"Fight for this king! This king wants to capture this thief general in front of him alive!" Hauge tore off the arrow feathers from his thigh, and roared nonchalantly.

Two thousand and eight banner soldiers held scimitars and fought with Chen Mingyu.

above the city wall.

"General! General!" A soldier rushed into the turret and roughly pushed Yan Yingyuan's body.

Yan Yingyuan was so tired that he didn't even notice the loud gunfire just now. Yan Yingyuan slowly opened his eyes while his body was being pushed.

In the dim light in the turret, Yan Yingyuan saw a panicked soldier in front of him. The soldier opened his mouth wide and kept saying something, but he couldn't hear him.

After being dizzy for a while, Yan Yingyuan finally sat up like a spring.

"Master Yan, Hu Zihao, deputy chief executive, sent away the brothers under the city wall last night, and broke open the city gate privately! He...he surrendered to the enemy!" Ma Shining, a thousand household officer, knelt in front of Yan Yingyuan, crying tears in his eyes, and said through gritted teeth.

Hu Zihao was his subordinate and also the nephew of Zhu Chunchen, Duke Cheng of the dynasty.

In his words, he came to the frontier army just to be gilded. Even so, he was appointed deputy Qianhu by his superiors.

Ordinary soldiers who fought half their lives on the battlefield may not be able to become officials, but just because they have a relative who is the Duke of the country, they can soar into the sky.

But the Qianhu officer had nothing to do. Fortunately, Hu Zihao was quite clever, so he didn't cause him too much trouble. Since his Qianhu was assigned to Yan Yingyuan's subordinates, Hu Zihao had been dealt with even more obediently.

But it never occurred to him that at the time of the crisis, it was such a number one person who betrayed everyone in the city.

The Qianhu official was full of guilt, but at the same time he couldn't accept it. How could the descendants of the Duke of the dynasty not cherish the great reputation of his ancestors so much?

"What's the situation outside?" Yan Yingyuan ignored the grief-stricken Qianhu officials, but his expression was calm.

The situation is already like this, if anger can make thousands of troops, wouldn't Jianlu be wiped out long ago.

"Master Chen is fighting Jianlu alley in the city, the common people are in a panic, the city...is in chaos!" Qian Huguan reported truthfully.

"How many capable soldiers are there on the city wall?" Yan Yingyuan frowned slightly.

"My lord, the [-] soldiers in the city are all men who dare to fight!" Seeing that the general's expression was normal, the Qianhu officer was not only ashamed of his crying expression, but then said loudly.

"Quickly bring 1000 people down the city wall to support Master Chen! Remember that the Tartars will never let us go, tell the soldiers, when you fight the enemy bravely, Daming will avenge you!"

"Follow my orders! I wish you a prosperous military fortune, General, and I will go ahead!" Qianhu Guan bowed his hands and made a last salute, and resolutely left the turret.

On a cold winter night, a group of savages wanted to vent their anger, and a group of innocent people wanted to survive. The sounds of killing, screaming, and saving lives resounded through the sky in the city.

Yan Yingyuan got up and took out the pen and ink from the corner, spread out a piece of rice paper, and raised the pen to write something.

He hesitated for a moment, threw the brush on the side of the table, stretched out his right index finger, bit it open, sprayed blood, and swiped his finger into a book.

After a while, Yan Yingyuan folded the letter neatly and stuffed it into his bosom, and left the turret.

Outside the turret, eight hundred soldiers had already been waiting here. They were waiting for their general, even though they knew the final fate.

"General, Liang Kewang, a hundred households of humble Jinyiwei, met General Yan!"

A soldier in armor of the Ming army walked out from the corner of the city wall. The soldier suddenly took out a badge of Jin Yiwei from his waist and showed it to Yan Yingyuan.

"Hehe, Lord Hou's Jinyiwei is really extraordinary. He even arranged for manpower under my nose, but I don't know what this young master is doing?" Yan Yingyuan spoke calmly, teasing and self-deprecating.

"My lord, the former Tuncheng has been destroyed, you are the old commander of the lord, so you can find a way to take the lord to escape before leaving the city with a humble job!
I can speak the Tartar language well, and I have prepared two sets of Tartar uniforms in the city, as long as I go down from the city wall, under the protection of the night, I can take the adults out with confidence, but the others..."

Liang Kewang hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything.
