Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 135 Escape ([-])

Under the escort of Zhou Chaozhong and more than a hundred confidants, Qiu Tianxing and others arrived at the foot of Yingshan City after nightfall.Because Zhou Xiu was pregnant and couldn't walk fast, she lay on a simple stretcher and was carried by people in turn, but even so, Zhou Xiu was already too bumpy at this time.

Looking at Zhou Xiu's frowning and sweating appearance reflected in the torch, Qiu Tianxing said.

"Miss, be patient a little longer, we are about to enter the city soon."

"En." Zhou Xiu nodded weakly.

At this time, the news that Qiu Tianxing and his team were rushing towards Yingshan holding torches had already alarmed the Yingshan defenders.At this time, it was Wang Huakang, a captain of Ye Su of the Sixth Battalion who was defending Yingshan.After receiving the report from his subordinates, he hurriedly put on his clothes and went to the tower.At this time, Qiu Tianxing and others had already arrived at the foot of Yingshan City.

The regiment guarding the city before was told that Qiu Tianxing, the head of the security regiment, was under the city, and they couldn't believe it.However, although he couldn't believe it, he was also afraid, and he didn't dare to shoot arrows directly to expel him, but just let him linger under the city.

Fortunately, Wang Huakang, the captain of his family, came over at this time.Wang Huakang is an old regiment member. He was a regiment member of the third battalion before Yingshan's change last year, but he was still a chief at that time.Now that the ups and downs have come, and his qualifications are even higher than those of Ye Su, Ni Zhan, he has also been promoted to captain.So he is very familiar with Qiu Tianxing.Leaning on the city wall and looking down, he found that the face under the city reflected under the torch was Qiu Tianxing himself.

Without thinking too much, Wang Huakang quickly ordered his men to open the city gate.Although opening the city gate in such a hasty way lost points in discipline, it scored a lot politically.

And after running for half a day, Qiu Tianxing, who was already out of breath, couldn't care less about the nighttime defensive discipline he emphasized, and how could he remember the style of Xiliuying that he once preached?If not, politics is just a means, and when it involves itself, everything changes.

After the city gate opened, Wang Huakang hurried over.Qiu Tianxing didn't bother to ask, so he spoke directly before Wang Huakang could speak.

"Send someone to inform Battalion Commander Ye Su, and ask him to come to Yingshan as soon as possible."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Tianxing looked at Wang Huakang, as if he was waiting for something.

"Yes! The subordinate will send someone to Suizhou immediately. The subordinate is Wang Huakang, the captain of the fourth battalion of the Sixth Battalion. I have met the commander!"

Nodding his head, after knowing Wang Huakang's identity, Qiu Tianxing asked.

"Comrade Wang Huakang, how many troops are there in your Fourth Brigade in Yingshan?"

"Comrade commander, my fourth brigade is fully formed, with a full strength of 700 troops!"

The etiquette of the security regiment is that you call others their titles, and they will call you by their titles. If you call others comrades, others will also call you comrades.In comparison, addressing comrades is a title that shortens the distance and conveys goodwill and intimacy.But except for Qiu Tianxing, this era still pays attention to being a venerable, the other high-level people forget it, it is better not to say the name of the leader of the security team directly.Therefore, there is the title of Comrade Leader.

Hearing that Ying Shan's army was a full brigade, Qiu Tianxing felt a little relieved.Now the Tartars fought with themselves under Anlu City. Although the Tartars won, the sequelae are not small. At least they need to rest for a few days to lick their wounds.Therefore, I am still safe for the next few days.Now that the elite of the security regiment has been lost in the first battle, it is time to seek a way out.Among the six main battalions, the sixth battalion is the one closest to you and the most complete.Except for the two brigades that were transferred by Qiu Tianxing, the rest of the troops were intact.If Qiu Tianxing still wanted to take action, he had to rely on the Sixth Battalion.

Under Wang Huakang's arrangement, Qiu Tianxing finally settled down, took a hot bath and fell into a deep sleep.When you are exhausted to the extreme, you will have no other thoughts, and you will not be afraid of those ghosts and monsters.

In the following day, one after another, senior officials from the security team fled to Yingshan.When the Tatars were in a hurry to attack the city, the high-level officials had a plan to flee to Yingshan after the city was broken.Although it is preached to die with the city, not everyone will give up the hope of life.After the Tazi reinforcements defeated their own reinforcements, the broken crowd crowded towards Anlu City, and the whole city knew the news of the defeat in an instant.The heads of various departments began to flee with their families, but there were too many people on the street, which blocked the way out of the city.When Zhou Chaozhong sent troops to pick them up, some of them had already left home. After the troops failed to return to the army, they were rushed by the crowd and broke up, which in turn made the traffic even more blocked.

So, from midnight yesterday to this morning, hundreds of people came one after another.Most of these people are members of the security group system. As for the ordinary citizens who can escape, they all choose to disperse into the countryside.

After waking up, Qiu Tianxing was deeply moved when he saw the group of old fellows who had drifted away from him.

Looking around one by one, Liu Jincai was there, Zhang Zhuangcheng was there, and thankfully his father-in-law Zhou Zhen was also there. Now it was time to explain to Zhou Xiu that she couldn't bear too much grief after giving birth.Zhang Liansheng, Zhang Chengwu were also there, and Ni Zhan was also standing in the crowd.

Looking at Zhang Chengwu, Qiu Tianxing regretted endlessly, regretting that he should sit in the city and miss the opportunity to fight.He knew that this was not Zhang Chengwu's responsibility, but his own.Since he entered Anlu City, his comfortable and comfortable life has made him lose his spirit of adventure. He always wants to be safe in everything he does, for fear of any accidents.Zhang Chengwu said that the troops would collapse as soon as they left the city, Qiu Tianxing thought it was reasonable, and it turned out to be true.However, since how can we fight without taking risks, how can we fight a battle that we must lose?Anyone who has a slight chance of winning must go all out to fight for it. Sitting in a lonely city is a game that will surely perish.When the war starts, the whole army should leave the city.Although Qiu Tianxing came to his senses in the end, it was too late, the Tartar reinforcements arrived, and he was powerless to recover.However, this is only an effect and not a cause.

Because of the sudden and huge victory, Qiu Tianxing forgot his earlier policy of encircling the cities from the countryside, and instead hoped to rely on the rapid development of the cities to resist the Tartars.But he ignored that the current security team's resistance to the Tartars is still an act of overreaching in the eyes of outsiders.Therefore, the security regiment gave up the struggle behind the enemy and went directly to the front of the enemy, which was attacked by the main force of the Tartars.This lesson is very severe!

After glancing at Zhang Ying and Xu Cheng behind him with painful eyes, Qiu Tianxing spoke slowly.

"I have to bear a lot of responsibility for this battle in Anlu. It is my decision to sit back and watch the reinforcements fail. I resign from the position of regimental commander myself. The next regiment commander will be elected by you!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked.Zhang Chengwu fell to his knees and hit the tunnel with his head.

"Head! Sit back and watch the reinforcements fail and die. This is a subordinate's suggestion, and it has nothing to do with the head! Now that the security group is in critical condition, it is impossible to live without a head! The security group was formed by you alone, the security group cannot live without you, you The security team is here! If you want to punish, punish your subordinates! The subordinates are willing to die to comfort the spirits of those sacrificed comrades!"

Because he was not carrying a weapon, Zhang Chengwu stood up and was about to slam into the wall, but was hugged tightly by Zhang Lian, the commander of the third battalion beside him.

Just when everyone was startled and overwhelmed, a guard came from outside the door.

"The Sixth Battalion Commander Ye is here!"
