Blood from Daming

Chapter 668 Ambush
Xue Yun was very angry in his heart. Firstly, he hated Qi Misai for not listening to calls and making his own decisions, and for not cooperating with Aruhan and Baoyin. Second, he hated the Shanxi merchants of the Xuanfu for their audacity and dared to throw flies on the tiger's head. Xue Yun asked Aruna He sent someone to notify Harijula ​​to mobilize troops for support, and he immediately ordered the entire Xue family army to set off.

Xue Yun led the entire army of the Xue family and Aruna's guards. A total of 3000 troops went south to the Wanquanwei of Xuanfu. The 3000 troops were all two or three horses. Ministry, Qi Miesai timidly came to see Xue Yun.

As soon as Miesai saw Xue Yun, he knelt down and kowtowed to Xue Yun to plead guilty. Xue Yun was originally angry at Miesai, but seeing that his Miesai troops were full of wounded soldiers, he still held back his words. , stepped forward to help General Miesai, Qi Miesai cried and said: "Master, you want to avenge Feiyingqi."

Xue Yun roared: "He destroys the general of the fortress and offends my Xue family army, the only way is death."

Xue Yun ordered the medical officers of the whole army to join in the treatment of his Miesai soldiers, and he himself sat down on the rocks beside him.

He Miesai said hesitantly: "Master, my subordinates were ambushed near Wanquan City, and the Xuanfu militiamen swarmed out. There were as many as 3 militiamen participating in the battle. Our army was caught off guard and was massacred by the Xuanfu militiamen. The subordinates were besieged on all sides, and they continued to fight until the next day when generals Aruhan and Baoyin came to help, more than 1000 soldiers were killed or killed, and it is strange that as many as [-] died in battle."

Xue Yun felt that Qi Miesai's words were incomplete and untrue, so he asked: "General Miesai, Flying Eagle Banner has two to three horses per person, has the best iron armor in Ming Dynasty, and can walk around freely when fighting. The loss, and why didn’t you inform the generals Aruhan and Baoyin of your actions.”

Qi Miesai knew that he couldn't hide it and said: "Master, my subordinates learned that the merchants of the Xuanfu had shipped a batch of supplies to Wanquan City, so they wanted to rob you to honor you, the master. The merchants attacked with armed forces, and they were reluctant to give up the property they got for a while, and lost the best chance to break out of the siege. After all, the subordinates are greedy for credit and ask the master to punish them."

Xue Yun was very angry when he saw Miesai. First of all, the Flying Eagle Banner was composed of the Mie'erliang tribe as the main part, plus a part of Harizhula and Luo Guohui, and then incorporated scattered herdsmen and horse bandits in the grassland. It was a complete team. A complete joint force, and as the chief general, Qi Miesai largely used the Flying Eagle Flag as a tool to benefit the Mie Erliang tribe.

Speaking of it, Xue Yun was too careful, because he was afraid of premature Xue's army's ambitions, and used the remote control of Feiyingqi through the identity of Princess Harijula. Only when Feiyingqi needed strong support, Xue Liu would Li or other generals of Xue's army cooperate with his General Destroyer fight together.

This gives him too much power to destroy the fortress, and he can do things as he pleases. This time, he is behind his back, Aruhan, and Baoyin, and he is greedy for merit, causing such a big loss to Feiyingqi. People, Xue Yun might be less angry, how could Xue Yun not feel sorry for tossing away the soldiers of the Xue family army like this, so Xue Yun will not let him destroy the fortress arbitrarily.

Xue Yun said: "As for the destruction of the fortress, the Japanese seat has repeatedly ordered you, Aruhan, and Baoyin not to be greedy for merit. Why did you forget it?"

When Qi Miesai heard that Xue Yun's tone became stricter, he immediately knelt down and replied: "Master, this subordinate is guilty, please let this subordinate take the blame and perform meritorious service."

Xue Yun was silent for a while, causing a certain amount of pressure in his heart and said: "Get up, if you don't obey orders next time, don't blame me for being ruthless in military law."

After Qi Misai stood up, Xue Yun said sternly: "Tell me about the specific battle process, how many enemies participated in the battle, who led the troops, how about the combat effectiveness and equipment, and how many officers and soldiers participated in the battle. It's the truth."

Qi Miesai immediately replied: "Master, the flying eagle flag was surrounded by three thousand elites, because the opponent was the militia, and they did not give up and seized hundreds of carts of property immediately. They were surrounded by as many as 1 Ming militia people. Stones, straw bags and broken vehicles blocked the way, and they lit fires everywhere to frighten our army's war horses, preventing our army from using the cavalry's rapid combat capabilities. There were about [-] civilian troops directly participating in the battle. Fortunately, they were poorly prepared and could not attack. Not resolute, our army is well-equipped with excellent weapons, so we can hold on until the reinforcements arrive the next day, beheading no less than [-] enemies. It is said that the troops led by a few big businessmen from Zhangjiakou, but the guards of the Xuan Mansion did not survive in the end. Didn't show up."

Xue Yun found it strange to hear that the militia organized by these merchants had long been determined to deal with the flying eagle flags that had been harassing near the Xuan Mansion for a long time, but this time it was such a good opportunity, the officials and troops of the Xuan Mansion did not take advantage of the fire to loot, which made Xue Yun Somewhat unexpected, but this shows that the Xuanfu officials are afraid of Feiyingqi's revenge. Who is the backstage of Feiyingqi? Now it seems that Xuanfu is well aware of it. Only he is still deceiving himself, thinking that there is no silver 300 Two.

Xue Yun asked: "For Miesai, I heard that the leading businessman is named Fan Yongdou. Is this news true?"

Qi Miesai replied: "Yes, master, there is this man, his uncle is still the minister of Jianlu, and this man is also ruthless in business. Under the attack of Datong Mansion and Mie'erliang Ministry, he is in Zhangjiakou. He has done well, and now he has surpassed his uncle's aura."

Xue Yunxin said that even though he was so organized, these traitors were still popping up one after another, and the Xuanfu government was really a jerk. They knew that Fan Yongdou's uncle was a traitor, but they still connived at the traitor. It's much more serious than I imagined.

Xue Yun asked, "Where are Aruhan and Baoyin's headquarters now?"

Qi Miesai said: "Master, the two generals Aruhan and Baoyin should be looting near Wanquan City and Zhangjiakou. Now that the master is here, they should be on their way back."

Xue Yun thought for a while and decided not to raise troops out of anger, so he ordered the whole army of the Xue family to set up camp on the spot, and wait for the news of the enemy troops in Xuanfu and Zhangjiakou to be clear before making plans. Finally, Xue Yun was able to leave Xue Yun. Miesai breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of Xue Yun's vicious killing of prisoners in western Liaoning, Miesai's whole body was drenched in sweat.

When Xue Yun was having dinner in the military camp of Xue’s army, Aruhan and Baoyin rushed to Xue Yun’s big tent of the Chinese army. When someone came into the tent and kowtowed to Xue Yun, they immediately saw Aruna next to him. Ruhan and Baoyin knew that Aruna's pheasant had turned into a phoenix, and quickly kowtowed to the new master.

Xue Yun asked Aruhan and Baoyin to sit aside. Aruna ordered the soldiers outside the tent to deliver food to the two generals, and let the two generals eat and talk. Most of the bastards in the flag fled into Zhangjiakou Fort, and the subordinates really have no choice but to take these bastards, hey."

Ah Ruhan thumped the carpet heavily, and Xue Yun said: "Ah Ruhan, Baoyin, you are fighting between Wanquan City and Zhangjiakou, how is the discipline of your subordinates?"

A Ruhan hurriedly said: "Master, although Flying Eagle Banner suffered heavy losses, my subordinates and Baoyin still followed the rules and did not harm the interests of good gentry and poor people at all. Baoyin can testify to this."

Baoyin hurriedly said: "General, we will keep your teachings in mind, and we will never do anything to harm the common people."

Xue Yun said: "That's good. I am the general of the Ming Dynasty. If my subordinates hurt the common people for no reason, how will I have the face to see the people of the Ming Dynasty in the future, not to mention that these people can also be used by us. Tell me about those executioners in Zhangjiakou Fort. Condition."

Baoyin said: "General, these profiteers came prepared with armed forces. They evacuated them early this morning, and among the [-] carts of goods used for fishing, [-] carts of real materials The goods were transported away, and when the last general and A Ruhan arrived, these Ming troops had already withdrawn overnight because they couldn’t get it, but most of them went to Zhangjiakou Fort.”

Xue Yun said, "Baoyin, do you have a list of these leading merchants?"

Baoyin said: "General, now I only know that there are Fan Yongdou, Jin Liangyu, and the Xuanfu Wang family and other wealthy merchants. The specific list may need to be sorted out."

Xue Yunxin said that he still couldn't get rid of those profiteers who colluded with Jianlu, and this time he couldn't be merciful. He must root out the profiteers in Zhangjiakou, Xuanfu, but this would make a big noise, I don't know Xue Yun didn't want to think too much about what kind of situation it would develop in the end. Anyway, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain.

After Xue Yun asked Aruhan and Baoyin to go back to rest, his personal soldiers handed over to Xue Yun a secret report of a submersible guard spy lurking in the Xuan Mansion, which was written in more detail. The giant merchants headed by Jin Liangyu and Fan Yongdou mobilized nearly 2 members of the militia and more than [-] civilians to participate. Under the circumstances, there was no expansion of the results of the battle, and the guards of the Xuanfu were unwilling to help in the battle, which made Wang Dengku, Jin Liangyu, Fan Yongdou and others feel timid and withdrew before the arrival of the Flying Eagle Banner reinforcements. Most of these merchants returned with Wang Dengku and Jin Liangyu In Zhangjiakou Fort, a small number of merchants went to Wanquan Right Guard and Laiyuan Fort, but Fan Yongdou went to the Xuanfu near and far. The secret report appended Zhangjiakou Fort, Laiyuan Bao, Wanquan Right Guard's army strength and number of artillery, and the family assets of the main merchants who participated in the ambush And the situation of the fort where it is located.
