Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 87 Three Thousand Battalions of Cavalry

Three thousand battalions of cavalry are part of the three major battalions of the Beijing camp. The soldiers and horses of this battalion adopt the battalion post system, which is different from the general guard army.

But what is even more special is that most of the cavalry in this battalion are Hulu and Tartars. The imperial court recruited these ethnic minorities who were good at riding and shooting to form a battalion.

"I really don't know how high the sky is. Catch him." Hearing Zhu Cihong's words, Gao Jie became angry.

Since he joined the army, no one has dared to block his way in the market. Usually when he encounters knights and businessmen who don't open their eyes, this time he didn't let people hack him to death on the spot.

Today he came to Yangzhou to meet the emperor, he was already full of anger, he waited for Zhu Cihong at the governor's yamen for a long time, but in the end he said that there is no need to wait.

He didn't even know Zhu Cihong's whereabouts, and he didn't even see a reason. He only saw Zhu Cihong's guard of honor entering the governor's office through the main entrance. The guards on the upper floor stopped him, unable to even say a word.

As soon as he got out of Yangzhou City, Gao Jie ran into an unsightly person blocking his way, so Gao Jie thought about venting all his pent-up anger on the unlucky guy in front of him.

It's a pity that he didn't know that his emperor was far away in the sky and close in front of him, otherwise he would have rushed to Yangzhou City long ago.

"Guards!" Zhang Chao said, and led the guards in casual clothes around him to draw out their mandarin duck sabers and surround Zhu Cihong in the center.

Since the emergence of the East and West Factory and the rise of one eunuch after another, the glory of Jinyiwei has long since disappeared. It is very easy to meet the Emperor Chongzhen who abolished the East and West Factory as soon as he came up, and dismissed the [-]-year-old emperor.

It's a pity that the emperor didn't like to set up secret service agencies like factory guards, so Jinyiwei became more and more declining, and even the Xiuchun knife in their hands became unknown, because the knife hadn't been drawn for a long time.

"My lord, let's apologize to the general." The candied haws seller was so frightened that Gao Jie and the cavalry who surrounded them looked fierce.

So he actually pulled Zhu Cihong's sleeve, wanting Zhu Cihong to apologize to Gao Jie together with him, the old man thought, maybe if they make an apology and kowtow to others, maybe they will be forgiven.

"Don't you feel it's unfair? Your candied haws are all stained, your haystacks are torn apart, and you can't do business today."

"They are the ones who didn't understand, and they are the ones who should apologize." Zhu Cihong said righteously, although he is not a very reasonable person, but for the weak, he must be fair.

"Injustice? The villain is wronged. It is the general who is wronged. If the villain and you are not blocking the way of the general, why would he waste so much time here?"

The old man's words made Zhu Cihong almost speechless, he thought to himself, people have already slapped their noses on their face, if you are still like this, don't you beg others to bully you.

However, Zhu Cixi didn't say anything about the old man's behavior. For an ordinary person like him, let alone meeting a general or aristocrat like Gao Jie, even if he met a small official in the government, no matter how reasonable he was, he would have to break his teeth and take it to his stomach. pharynx.

"I'll see who dares to touch me today." Zhu Cihong said confidently.

Three thousand battalions of cavalry had been summoned to the fields outside Yangzhou City. They rode tall horses outside the Great Wall, and they would arrive at Zhu Cihong's side within a few minutes.

"What are you doing in a daze, I will kill anyone who dares to resist." Seeing that the soldiers around him hesitated to advance, Gao Jie said angrily.

Gao Jie had killed a lot of people like Zhu Cixiang and had more than a dozen guards around him, so how could he take it to heart?

"General, there is the sound of horseshoes." A personal guard beside Gao Jie said in his ear.

Unlike Gao Jie, Gao Jie's personal guards made their living by wielding swords and swords on horseback, and they were more sensitive to the sound of horseshoes than Gao Jie.

What's more, Gao Jie is now filled with anger and depression, and can no longer calmly accept the information from the outside world, so he didn't hear the sound of the horseshoes of the [-] battalion of cavalry stepping on the stone road.

The horse's hoof stepped on the stone road and made a rattling sound. At first, Gao Jie thought it was like the sound of raindrops hitting an oil-paper umbrella, but the more he heard it, the more he felt it was like a blacksmith forging a sword with a hammer.

It's a pity that before Gao Jie could tell how many people had come from the voice, he heard bursts of exclamations.

"General, there are cavalry ahead, and there are cavalry behind."

"Don't worry, what banner are they playing?" Gao Jie didn't panic like his own soldiers.

"It's the Three Thousand Battalion." A literate person among Gao Jie's soldiers saw the coming flag and told Gao Jie.

It's okay if you don't listen, but upon hearing this, Gao Jie became flustered. He thought to himself, three thousand camps, what three thousand camps, isn't there no three thousand camps in Jinling?The north has fallen, so the [-] battalion from there, could it be that they are Yin soldiers?
"Three Thousand Battalion, kill all the soldiers around Gao Jie!" Gao Jie's soldiers offended Zhu Cihong, so he couldn't let them go.

"Who are you?" Gao Jie heard Zhu Cihong's voice, and thought to himself that he was a failure today, if he had known, he would have brought more people.

He only took thirty or so people out of the city today, if he brought more, he could protect him and kill him, unlike now he can only wait to die here.

"The person you are waiting for today." Zhu Cihong said.

After Gao Jie heard Zhu Cixiang's words, he realized that the young master he was about to capture and kill just now was actually his monarch.

It's a pity that when he was about to beg for mercy, and hoped that Zhu Cihong would not kill his soldiers, three thousand battalions of cavalry rushed up, killing all of Gao Jie's soldiers.

The [-] battalion of cavalry are all Hulu and Tartars. They are skilled in riding, and their horsemanship is even better. Among Gao Jie's three-legged cat kung fu soldiers, many of them can't even turn their horses' heads to fend off the enemy. Was stabbed to death.

"Your Majesty, I made a mistake. Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty." Gao Jie was held down by two cavalrymen from the [-] Battalion. Before the cavalry forced him to kneel down, he knelt down and begged for mercy.

"You, you are the emperor?" The old man selling candied haws said excitedly. He never dreamed that he would have a time to talk and deal with the emperor.

"What? You don't believe it?"

Zhu Cihong thought to herself, is she really that lacking in arrogance?I can't let you bow down as soon as you see me, my army has been transferred here, why do you doubt it.

"I believe it, I believe it. I never imagined that my old man would have lived half his life to meet the emperor. It would be worth dying immediately." The old man said with excitement.
