Chapter 576

In Houjin Daying.

A large swath of torches is being evacuated.

Begging and cursing also gradually staged.

Those who were injured and unable to walk, in this chaotic camp, no one took a second look, they were abandoned aside, and after begging, there was a curse, a vicious curse.

Among the evacuated torches, people kept falling down because of smoke inhalation, and people fell down because of explosions, or because of stampede, or other reasons. Those who fell were not willing to take a look, because the fire was just around the corner. Beside him, because he was inhaling smoke at any time, and because the explosion would sound at any time, more curses sounded continuously.

Hou Jin's big camp continued to burn, and the raging fire was still rushing high.

……

The last hot air balloon finally took off.

Er Mao was lying peacefully in the pit, quietly looking at the stars in the sky and the burning camp in the distance, while the soldiers beside him were full of excitement and kept talking about the "fierce" battle just now.

Er Mao did not participate in the hot discussion among the soldiers, but just watched calmly. To him, this kind of battle was nothing at all, not even to the extent of hand-to-hand combat, and there was no fighting between the two sides. It was purely slaughter. Cover, slaughter.

"Don't go out, wait until dawn!" Er Mao saw a soldier about to climb out, and ordered in a low voice.

……

Take off with the last hot air balloon.

In the camp of the Ming army, countless lights were quickly lit up, illuminating the entire camp. The lights were arranged neatly. If one could see it from a high altitude, it was simply a queue of lights.

The line of lights began to move towards the burning camp of the Tartars.

……

Houjin Camp.

The military order to retreat has been issued for a long time. In the first half of the barracks, everyone who can leave has left, and the movement is not as loud as before. Except for the flames still burning, some miserable curses are still echoing here.Those who wanted to leave but couldn't, became the only people who were still alive in this place, and their mournful curses were creepy.

Chaos, pushing each other, trampling on each other, even drawing knives at each other, people roaring, howling, explosions, and shouting continued in the second half of the barracks.Everyone pushed each other and ran towards the back of the camp, hoping to escape from this hell as soon as possible.

Surrounded by everyone, Huang Taiji had escaped from this hell and hid in the darkness.

"How could this happen? God...how could this be? God..." At this time, Huang Taiji had lost all brilliance, and there was no other words except for these few words that kept moaning.

Under the cover of this darkness, looking back at the camp that was burnt to hell, seeing the crowds pushing, cursing, wailing, and chaotic, Huang Taiji's heart is broken. Dajin has gathered for decades The raised family business was lost in his hands overnight. In the Ming Dynasty, Dajin's dignity, spirit, morale, ambition, and everything that could be trampled on in the family were completely burned.

"Woooo..."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Someone in the crowd started to cry. In the dark night, more people were soon infected. The sound of crying became more and more fierce under the cover of this dark night.

"God! Did you just abandon me, Dajin?" In the night, it was Huang Taiji who cried hoarsely.

"God..."

The answer was more crying all around...

……

In the night, I don't know when it started to rain. Maybe I heard Huang Taiji's crying, or maybe I was moved by the crying of everyone in Houjin, so the rain started to fall unconsciously. .

……

The advancing army of Ming Dynasty.

"Mother, it's raining!" Qin Liangyu's daughter-in-law Zhang Fengyi said.

"Understood!" Qin Liangyu replied, she also felt the rain, but does the rain have anything to do with tonight's battle?She doesn't care that much anymore.

"Commander, do you want to stop for a while? Wait until the rain is over before leaving?" a general reminded.

"No need, the Tartars are already like a bereaved dog at this time, how dare they come to attack me? What's more, the scouts are far enough away, and the Tartars will attack me in advance. Don't worry, there will be no problem, even if the Tartars really come to attack me , I will tell him to come and go..." Qin Liangyu said lightly, at this time, the victory and defeat had been decided, and Qin Liangyu believed that the Tartars could no longer organize a decent offensive at this time.

"Mother! Will the fire be extinguished by the rain?" Qin Liangyu's daughter-in-law Zhang Fengyi asked again.

"No..." Qin Liangyu replied without thinking too much.After seeing the fire that can't be extinguished by splashing water during the day, Qin Liangyu quickly answered that if it was in the past, she would still have this worry, but tonight, if those things are not burned, it is impossible to stop.

"That's right. This fire is different from ordinary fires. It cannot be extinguished by ordinary means, and it can only be stopped after it is completely burned. Regardless of the rain at this moment, it seems to be beneficial to the Tartars. In fact, this is what God wants We want to collect the Tartars! Therefore, this rain..." the staff officer surnamed Huang said excitedly.

"Oh, Staff Officer Huang, why did you say that?" Although Qin Liangyu knew that the fire was not easy to extinguish and was not afraid of water, she still didn't know that there was such a thing.

"Back to the commander-in-chief, there is no one else. If the camp of the Tartars is burning fiercely, if it is rained again... Alas, it's not that the lower officials cursed the Tartars, it's true that God is recruiting the Tartars! The commander may not know that after the fire is drenched by rain, it does not burn so quickly. There is more smoke than fire. If it burns down, the fire may disappear soon, and the smoke will also rise faster, but after being exposed to rain, the fire will be smaller, but the smoke will run around and will not disperse, which is worse than the previous smoke. It’s too much, such a big camp, with so much smoke, alas..., I don’t know how many Tartars will be smoked to death... That’s why the lower officials said, God wants to accept Tartars..." Staff officer surnamed Huang said excitedly, through the light that was not too bright, one could see that his face was full of smiles.

"So that's how it is!..." Qin Liangyu said, these few words seemed ordinary, but they also deeply shocked Qin Liangyu, this fire was indeed vicious enough.

"Heaven commits evil, it is still forgiven, self-inflicted, you can't live! Tartars have committed too many crimes, God will accept him..." In the darkness, no one knew who said something.

……

Behind the Houjin camp, there was a dark night.

"Sweat, it's raining, it's raining, it's raining, there is salvation, there is salvation! Sweat's prayers are effective, the gods are merciful, it is finally raining..." In the dark night, the crying finally stopped, Such a voice sounded.

"Khan, the gods are merciful, it's raining, my Dajin is saved..."

"God is merciful, sweating profusely, it's raining..."

In the darkness, everyone became happy, and felt that it was finally raining, and when it rained, the fire in the camp should be extinguished.

Huang Taiji also set his sights on the burning camp, feeling a little lucky in his heart, perhaps, the rain could really put out the fire.

Obviously, although the rain has been falling, it has no intention of extinguishing the fire. The fire is indeed not as fierce as before, but there is no sign that it will be extinguished. Some places where the fire light has become smaller are also places that have been burning for a long time. Not like being doused by rain, but more like being extinguished by itself after burning everything that can be burned.

In the Houjin camp, those wailing and cursing voices gradually died out as the rain fell.

The fire that has not been extinguished for a long time in the Houjin Daying camp completely collapsed the people who hoped that the rain would extinguish the fire in the darkness.

"It's useless..., it's useless, the fire can't be put out even with water, so how can the rain put it out?...It's useless..., it's over, it's over..."

"Woooooooo..., it's over..., my big gold is over..." More crying came and went in the darkness again.

Huang Taiji, who hadn't slept all day and night, was exhausted to the extreme. After several merciless blows, he couldn't resist anymore, closed his eyes, and fell to the ground with a "plop".

Immediately, someone at the side felt something was wrong, and shouted: "Khan..., Khan, what's wrong with you, Khan?..."

"Khan..., hurry up and light the torch..."

"Come on, hurry up and light the torch..."

In the darkness mixed with rain, there was chaos.

……

The stars gradually receded from the starry sky.

It rained all the time.

I don't know how long it took.

The rain gradually stopped.

I don't know how long it took.

The sky finally started to light up.

In front of the Ming army formation was a completely burned camp. Some embers were still smoking, dilapidated and terrifying. After uncovering the cover of the night, he gradually revealed his original side. revealed in front of the public.

In the dilapidated camp, there were corpses scattered all over the place, human and horse, burnt beyond recognition, dilapidated, and the tragedy beyond description.In the army formation, many soldiers were already retching. It was not that they had never seen dead people, but it was just too miserable.

Facing such a miserable Tartar camp, Qin Liangyu, Mao Wenlong, Man Gui and others were also terrified. Fortunately, this was the Tartar camp that was burned. What if it was me?How bad is this?Everyone has lingering fears.

"Commander-in-Chief, the Tartars' camp was indeed severely burned. All the dead were healthy Tartars. The total number was at least [-]. Many of them were burnt beyond recognition. You have to carefully identify them to get the number of people." , Last night the hot air balloon really did a great job..." Staff surnamed Huang reported with a pale face, after the army arrived in front of the Tartar camp, he took people to count the "trophies", confirmed the results of last night's battle, and wrote a hot post by the way. Report on the burning effect of the balloon.When he went there, he was an excited person, but when he came back, his complexion was so pale that it couldn't be any whiter, which shows how badly the camp burned.

The hearts of the people were finally relieved. It seemed that there was no need to worry about the Tartars playing tricks anymore. More than ten thousand strong Tartars were killed or injured. This affirmed that the Tartars were burned to a mess last night.

"Congratulations to Commander-in-Chief. Now, don't worry anymore. The lower officials said, this fire will definitely burn the Tartars extremely badly..." Mao Wenlong immediately congratulated. Before the specific result of the battle was not sure, Qin Liangyu Still a little uncertain, now that the result of the battle has come out, now, the fact of a big victory can finally be confirmed.

"Congratulations to the commander-in-chief..." Everyone congratulated Qin Liangyu again for the result in front of them. This time the result was confirmed, and it was a veritable victory.

Qin Liangyu also accepted everyone's congratulations.

"Report..." It was already dawn, and Tan Ma quickly sent back the news.

"What's the matter?" Qin Liangyu asked.

"Returning to the commander, the Tartars are retreating northward. They are moving slowly. The number of people is estimated to be more than [-]. Many of them seem to have no horses to ride... The young ones still found a lot of horses in the wild. It seems that the Tartars got lost. The horses..." The explorer reported the latest news he had found.

"It seems that the Tartars were burned badly by this fire, and even their horses were lost..." Qin Liangyu said, feeling a little emotional. If it is true, it can be seen how powerful the fire was last night, forcing him to ride and shoot The startled Tartars lost their horses, which shows how chaotic the Tartars were last night.

"Commander, this is a rare and good opportunity! The tartars are being burnt to the ground, and they have suffered a great loss. Now they have lost a lot of horses. It can be seen that the chaos last night, the general thought that he should pursue immediately Go up and catch the Tartars by surprise..." said one of the generals.

"Commander, this time it can be seen that the Tartars were indeed burned severely. Not to mention the dead bodies in the camp, the Tartars even lost a lot of horses. It seems that they were really panicked last night, and they retreated today. Such slowness, I am afraid that many Tartars are indeed without horses, the commander-in-chief, according to the general, it is time to catch up and take a bite..." Another general also agreed.

"The commander-in-chief, or maybe it's the trick of the Tartars, we can't say for sure, we need to be careful..." Someone reminded.

Most of the people present felt that they should go after him, and some felt that it was best to maintain their current victory, so they argued for a while.

"Okay, everyone..., Staff Officer Huang, I will trouble you to clean up the burned camp of the Tartars. Xianglin, you are here to guard the camp and guard against the sneak attacks of the Tartars..." Qin Liangyu quickly said Made a decision.

"The next officer takes orders..."

"The last general takes orders..."

The person who clicked on the name immediately took the order.

"Shuai Mao, Governor Mandu, I will set up a cavalry team with you to chase the tartars. This time, we can't just let the tartars run away like this..." Qin Liangyu quickly made a decision. Seeing the miserable state of the camp, the Tartars must have been burned to a pulp. This opportunity is really rare.

"The subordinate takes orders!"

"The last general takes orders!"

Both Mao Wenlong and Man Gui immediately agreed, and after a comprehensive analysis, everyone tended to think that the Tartars were really flustered, and they really should follow and chase them, not to mention annihilating the Tartars, but at least take a bite of their flesh.

"Commander, beware of deceit! You might as well call Mr. Yuan over quickly for a follow-up response..." the staff officer surnamed Huang reminded.

"Well, that's right, come here! The military order of the command made Governor Yuan come forward quickly to respond to our army..." Qin Liangyu accepted the suggestion and immediately gave the order.

"Decree!" A school lieutenant who delivered the order immediately agreed.

"...Also, tell Lord Yuan that if you come quickly, you may catch up with the Tartars, so let Lord Yuan come as soon as possible..." Qin Liangyu said.Yuan Chonghuan has always been a surprise soldier, ready to be released at a critical moment to play a decisive role, so suddenness and surprise are very important, so Yuan Chonghuan has never shown up, but now that the overall situation has been settled, the tartars are fleeing, There was no need to hide it anymore, Qin Liangyu immediately decided to bring Yuan Chonghuan over.

"To order..." the captain replied in response.

……

The cavalry of the Ming Dynasty rushed out, bypassing the burnt Houjin camp, and went to chase the Tartars ahead.

……

Huang Taiji had already woken up and retreated northward with his dilapidated men and horses. The flags and tents were almost gone. Not only was there no food, many people even lost their horses and weapons. At this moment, he didn't even have a place to rest. Fortunately, the weather cleared up, otherwise, we would have to get wet in the rain.

There are not many men and horses around him who are neatly dressed. Many people have burnt and smoked marks on their faces and bodies. Due to the horses running wild last night, it is no longer possible to have one horse per man. The big camp ran out, but there were no animals, that is to say, they were about to be dragged down.

"How many people have no horses?" Huang Taiji asked weakly.

"Back to Dahan, there are still more than [-] horses..." Baylor, who was in charge of cleaning up, replied ashamedly. They were able to lose their horses after starting out with riding and shooting, which shows the extent of the chaos last night.

"How many horses can we gather in the field?" Huang Taiji asked again.

"Back to the sweat, those that can be gathered have already been gathered. Last night, the burn was really terrible..." Baylor said again.

"Well, I got it, let's gather together, send the injured ones away first, and beware of a surprise attack from the Ming Dynasty..." Huang Taiji said weakly.

"Cha..." Baylor agreed.

"Report..., master, the Ming Dynasty brigade's cavalry team is dispatched, heading straight here..." A scout horse hurried over, got off his horse and reported.

"...How many people are there?" Huang Taiji asked again, his face flushed bright red.

"Back to the master, there are less than [-]..." the Tanma said immediately.

"Okay, I got it! Let's explore again..." Huang Taiji said.

"Cha..." Tan Ma turned and left.

The faces of the people surrounding Huang Taiji became extremely pale. Just after leaving the flames, the Ming army came again.

"Too much bullying, too much bullying..." The hot-tempered Amin could only say a few words of "too much bullying", and the previous aura of rushing to fight Ming Chao was no longer there.

"Big Khan, at this time my Dajin is weak, and the Ming Dynasty is just recharging its energy. At this time, there is really no chance of winning a battle with the Ming Dynasty. What's more, the Ming Dynasty's infantry is behind. Once the Ming Dynasty is stained, the consequences It's unimaginable..." Fan Wencheng came out anxiously and said, at this time, Dajin needed food but no food, morale but no morale, physical strength but no physical strength, what he wanted was nothing, although the number seemed to be superior, in fact there was no one Advantage.

No one spoke, and no one dared to say what they said to the Ming Dynasty. The fire last night had already burned everyone's heart and courage. Now, they are cold and hungry, and there is no dry place on their bodies. Have a good rest, how to fight the Ming Dynasty people?

"Let's go back..." Huang Taiji looked into the distance and said these two words silently.
