high official

Chapter 1223 The Lonely Hero
Yongtong Bridge is in charge of a deputy capital commander and a household servant. The latter jumped up anxiously, pulled the deputy capital commander and shouted: "Hurry up and stop them!"

The deputy capital commander threw off the household servant angrily, and roared: "Tell the common people not to run around! How can I fight in such a mess?!"

The Minister of the Household Department smiled wryly: "It will not affect your war..." It turned out that the common people had already run away, and only the officers and soldiers were left near the Yongtong Bridge.

"Hurry up and hold me back!" The deputy commander waved his sword and told his officers and soldiers to meet the enemy quickly, but he himself was riding on the horse, motionless.

Xu Huaiqing's cavalry had already rushed to the front, and the officers and soldiers barely finished their formation when they were shot dead or wounded by Wang Xianjun's musket bows and arrows!
Opening the way with muskets, bows and arrows, Xu Huaiqing held up the Xuanhua big axe, and went straight into the enemy's formation. The big ax flew, and a dozen officers and soldiers were decapitated!All the generals under his command also took the lead, leading their cavalry to charge towards the officers and soldiers!The five thousand cavalry were unstoppable, and the officers and soldiers who killed were crying for their fathers and mothers, and the formation was cut off in a blink of an eye!

The commander was on the bridge, but the armor he wore was bright and eye-catching.After Xu Huaiqing broke through the enemy line, he went straight to kill him!
The deputy capital commander was so frightened that he hurriedly summoned his own soldiers to stop the enemy general, but Xu Huaiqing was too brave, and the officers and soldiers had no enemy like him with a big axe!
The deputy capital commander saw the blood of his own soldiers being killed, and the enemy general rushed to him, but he couldn't recognize it. The one who came was the number one brave general of Ming Dynasty—Xu Huaiqing, the sky-opening axe!
The moment Xu Huaiqing was recognized, the last ray of courage from the deputy capital commander disappeared completely. He was a peerless fierce man who could kill Duoyan's commander Darhan among thousands of troops!How could the deputy capital commander dare to repeat Darhan's mistake, turned his horse's head, fled from the bridge, and went straight west for his life!

Seeing that the general ran away in battle, the servant of the household department cursed angrily, and then quickly ran away...

Xu Huaiqing rode his horse up to the bridge, glanced contemptuously at the two fleeing surrounded by their own soldiers, and then turned their heads to pay attention to the battle situation.

Not surprisingly, the soldiers of the officers and soldiers who had already been killed lost their souls. Seeing that the general escaped, there was no trace of fighting spirit, and they dropped their weapons one after another and fled in all directions!

Wang Xianjun's cavalry took advantage of the situation and pursued them. They had just killed two miles, but they heard that the bridgehead commander Ming Jin had no choice but to turn back and let the enemy flee.

On the bridge, Xu Huaiqing looked at the grain and supplies, and said coldly, "Burn them all!"

The generals were in great pain, but they had no choice but to do so. They led the soldiers under their command and gathered the grain carts together.Then, he lit a torch and threw it up. The sky was dry and everything was flammable food, and the fire suddenly burst into flames.

Zhang Dahai stretched out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, tsk tsk regretfully said: "If you bring this food back, my father-in-law will be very happy..." Since the expedition to Mongolia, Wang Xian's army has been in a state of food shortage. It is a reckless waste of so much white food to be burned.

Xu Huaiqing looked at the officers and soldiers galloping in the distance, glanced at Zhang Dahai, and said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, move quickly!"

Zhang Dahai shrank his neck, inhaled the smell of burnt food in the air, and waved his hand suddenly: "Let's go!"

.

Yongtong Bridge was only eight miles away from Tongzhou, and the Deputy Commander and the Minister of the Household Department ran back in one breath.

The two knelt down in front of Yang Rong and Li Xian in a state of embarrassment, and reported the attack in trembling voices.

"Ah!" Li Xian turned pale with shock, turned his head to look at Yang Rong in horror and said, "Didn't you say there was only a small army?"

Yang Rong's face sank like water, and the servant of the household department hurriedly replied: "The enemy's soldiers and horses are really not many, only five thousand cavalry."

The commander heard that this was going to kill him, so he rushed to say: "But they are the elite of Wang Xian's elite, the assault battalion led by Xu Huaiqing! Even the Duoyan people and the Tatars , they all killed the shit..."

Yang Rong cast a disgusted glance at the deputy capital commander who was exaggerating desperately in order to mitigate the crime.At this time, I saw billowing black smoke rising from the east again!Yang Rong's heart was cut like a knife, and he punched the arrow stack heavily, "How many people have been burnt!"

"Ah!" Only now did Li Xian understand that the black smoke was the food that had been burned, so he hurriedly asked the two of them, "How much food does this cost?"

"Most of the grain shipped from Tongzhou is stuck there..." The servant of the household department whispered: "At least there are more than [-] shi..."

"So much?!" Li Xian also jumped in shock. He had to bear a lot of responsibility for such a big loss.He hurriedly looked at Yang Rong and said, "Master Ge, stop the shipment quickly! We must kill those five thousand cavalry first!"

"Can't stop!" Yang Rong said with an extremely ugly face: "That's right in the enemy's arms!" Yang Rong knew very well that Wang Xian's purpose was to make him unbearable to be harassed and stop transporting food.But Yang Rong knew better that he could never stop. Once Wang Xian's army arrived in Tongzhou and cut off the passage between the capital and Tongzhou, Tongzhou city would not be able to transport a grain of grain to Beijing!
As he said that, Yang Rong took a deep look at the two kneeling on the ground. It was fine if they were both commanding, the servant of the household department was his favorite student.But at this moment, he couldn't care less, Yang Rong let out a clang, pulled out the Son of Heaven sword, pointed at the two of them and said: "You have all issued military orders, people are alive, food is lost, people die! How can you still have the face to come back alive?! "

The two of them lost their souls immediately, and the other commander kowtowed desperately, "Ge Lao, forgive me, Ge Lao, forgive me..."

The servant of the household department was better, but said with tears: "I'm sorry for the teacher, the teacher gave me another chance to make a contribution..."

"There's no chance..." Yang Rong sighed, raised his head and said, "I'll give you a chance, who will give Daming a chance?!" Then he waved his hand and said, "Behead them as a public example, as a warning to others!"

The sergeants rushed forward, held the shoulders of the two men and dragged them away. The two cried and struggled tearfully, "Please, Mr. Ge..." "Teacher, please..."

Hearing his disciple's heartbreaking mourning, Yang Rong's eyes were filled with tears, and he turned his head cruelly away. When he heard two screams, he couldn't help shivering.Without even looking at the head presented by the sergeant, he waved his hand and said, "Take it and pass it on to the officers and soldiers escorting him. If there are people who lost food and grass and ran away, don't bother me to do it!"

The soldiers responded and went down to the top of the city. Li Xian on the side was pale. He never expected that Mr. Yang Ge, who had never killed a chicken for most of his life, would burst out with a more vicious murderous aura than those generals who are used to blood. !
.

Mr. Yang Ge murdered and established his prestige and passed the first line to the whole line. Immediately, all the soldiers completely lost the last trace of luck. They had to show 12 points of caution and 12 points of courage to protect the food delivery team.

However, Xu Huaiqing's cavalry was so powerful that they lurked around dozens of kilometers of transportation lines, and they could always find weak links in the escort officers and soldiers, so they bit them hard, scaring the civilians who were transporting them away in a hurry!Taking advantage of the chaos, Xu Huaiqing led his army into the enemy's formation, set fire to them and then fled, never giving the main force of the officers and soldiers a chance to surround them... Repeatedly, it never works!

The official army also wanted to send cavalry to deal with the cavalry, not expecting to destroy the enemy, at least drive them away.However, the level of the same cavalry was vastly different. Xu Huaiqing's cavalry led the officer cavalry for a few circles on the plain, leaving them far behind.When the cavalry of the officers and soldiers managed to come back, they saw that their own infantry had been ravaged, and the grain carts were burning...

In desperation, the officers and soldiers had no choice but to stop, using grain carts to form a chariot formation to resist the invading cavalry.Now the situation is really much better, with the heavy grain trucks connected end to end, Xu Huaiqing can no longer break through the positions of the officers and soldiers at will!Relying on the cover of the car array, the officers and soldiers have a greatly increased chance of surviving under the hail of arrows and bullets!The officers and soldiers could even rely on the chariot formation to fight back against Xu Huaiqing and the others!
Xu Huaiqing tried several times to break through, but all failed. He could only use rockets to attack the grain trucks from a distance, but naturally had little effect... Zhang Dahai and other popular beards straightened, and they cursed: "A hundred thousand troops, but they are like bastards!" Shrink, lose face?!"

The officers and soldiers don't care about being shy, they can save their lives by keeping the food. As for the face, whoever wants it will go!
Xu Huaiqing was not angry but happy, he laughed loudly and said: "The turtle with a shrunken head is very good! Let's go around, and whoever dares to stick out the penis will blow it up!"

Sure enough, Yang Rong from Tongzhou City almost lost his temper when he heard the news!The grain transport team is all huddled on the road, who will transport the grain to the capital? !

Soon, the entire official road to the capital was blocked, and more teams could not get out of the city at all, and the entire Tongzhou was filled with grain trucks!

"Mr. Ge, if this goes on like this, three days will definitely not be enough!" Seeing this, Li Xian said worriedly: "We still have to find a way to expel those damned cavalry as soon as possible!"

Yang Rong glanced at Li Xian, the meaning is very clear, you are the leading general, isn't this your responsibility?
"Hey," Li Xian wished he could slap himself in the face, thinking, why should I say such words?But Yang Rong had the Son of Heaven Sword in his hand, so he couldn't help but to shirk, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "I would like to lead ten thousand... oh no, twenty thousand cavalry, go and destroy... oh no, drive away the enemy army."

Yang Rong nodded, forced a smile and said, "Then I'll have to thank Lord Hou."

As he said that, Yang Rong shook the Tianzi Sword intentionally or unintentionally. Li Xian was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

Looking at Li Xian's back, Yang Rong shook his head and sighed, the generals of the Ming Dynasty are really inferior to each other.At the founding of the country, the famous generals were like clouds and the sun was at the height of the sky; at the time of Jingnan, it was almost adjusted to zero, but Zhu Di's generals group was still above the standard anyway.Up to now, it is full of useless second-generation ancestors like Duke Ding and Li Xian!

The only powerful ones are a group of expeditionary generals headed by Wang Xian and Liu Sheng, and they all rebelled against the imperial court...

Thinking of this, Elder Yang Ge couldn't help looking past the Tongzhou battlefield, looking at the capital from a distance, and sighed secretly in his heart: "Master Shoufu, you are destroying the Great Wall yourself..."
