Daming: Stealing Chen Yuanyuan at the beginning

Chapter 300 There are no eggs under the nest, surrounded by heavy troops
A day later, a spy from the Ming army came to report: "Duke Jingguo, you guys were spying on the military situation near the veterinary mouth, and suddenly found a Qing army rushing westward, seeming to escort some important person out of Kaifeng City."

"Really?" Huang Degong frowned, and asked like a cannonball, "When did it happen, how many people were there in that Qing army, and how did you know that they were escorting important people away?"

The spy said: "This incident happened in the early hours of this morning. The younger ones speculate that these people left the city at night. There are about 3000 Qing soldiers. There is a very luxurious carriage in the army, and there are even many gorgeous military prostitutes accompanying the army."

Huang Degong shouted: "No, is it because Kong Youde wants to cross the river from the west? Chase!"

Qi Dazhuang hastily stopped Huang Degong, saying: "Mr. Jingguo, you must pursue the enemy, but you must not underestimate the enemy. If you go west, our army will be beyond our reach. The Qing army still has strength in Xingze and other places. It is not appropriate to go too deep into the hinterland of the enemy-occupied area. Besides You and I are going to guard the Yellow River ferry in Kaifeng area, it is not appropriate to divide our forces, so we just chase after a while to find out the situation."

"I'll just listen to you. This general should be careful in everything." Huang Degong smiled, and summoned 5000 troops to chase him down quickly.

In the early morning of the second day, when they arrived in the Yangqiao area, the Ming army finally saw the Qing army heading west from afar.Huang Degong gave an order, and the soldiers drove their horses and galloped to kill them.

Hearing the sound of killing behind him, Xian Guoan said anxiously: "1000 people protect the young master and young lady and continue on their way, and the rest follow me to meet the enemy!"

The two sides quickly fought together, inseparable.The main task of the Qing soldiers was to safely escort the brothers and sisters of the Kong family to Xingze, and because the troops were at a disadvantage, they fought for a while and then retreated.

As soon as Huang Degong was on the horse, he saw a luxurious carriage in the Qing army, inlaid with gold and jade, luxuriously decorated, and saw several women with heavy make-up riding beside him, knowing that what the spies said was true, there must be a big man in the carriage.

Immediately ordered: "At all costs, stop that carriage, capture the people in the carriage alive, and reward you with a hundred taels of silver!"

The soldiers of the Ming army suddenly became more courageous, hundreds of them forcibly broke through the defensive line of the Qing soldiers, and rushed to the vicinity of the carriage regardless.

Xian Guoan saw the Ming army's intentions, and hurriedly shouted: "Young Master Kong, please get out of the carriage and ride the horse, the carriage is too slow..."

Kong Tingxun's lazy voice came from the car: "I'm very dizzy after drinking, how can I ride a horse? General Xian, can't you protect me?"

Kong Sizhen commanded a group of soldiers to fight in the distance. Seeing that his brother's carriage was in danger, he was about to rush over to protect it.Unexpectedly, the Ming army made up their minds to stop the carriage. Countless soldiers of the Ming army flocked to them, and the two brothers and sisters were dispersed, and the distance became farther and farther away.

Xian Guoan was so anxious that he was sweating, he couldn't care less, he drove the two military prostitutes out of the car, and jumped into the car to hug Kong Tingxun.

Kong Tingxun was as drunk as a puddle of mud.Xian Guoan jumped out of the carriage with him in his arms, and was about to help him onto the horse, when suddenly an iron whip hit his head and face, and he subconsciously protected Kong Tingxun, but his own head was blown.

Xian Guoan fell to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, his eyelids began to sink, and he knew that he would not survive.

Trying to raise his eyes, he vaguely saw Kong Tingxun rolling on the ground, and seemed to be seriously injured.Then she looked towards the direction where Kong Sizhen was standing, burst out with all the strength in her body, and shouted heart-piercingly: "Miss, run, run!"

Seeing this situation, Kong Sizhen wanted to rescue Guoan and his elder brother, but was forcibly dragged away by the guards around him.

The Ming army was in hot pursuit. Fortunately, the soldiers around him were loyal to Kong Youde, and they desperately protected Kong Sizhen to the Sun's family ferry.Someone said: "Second Miss, it's too late to go to Xingze now, you can cross the river from here!"

When they found a boat at the ferry, the guards couldn't help but talk. More than a dozen people guarded Kong Sizhen to cross the river, and the rest turned back to fight fiercely with the Ming army.

The boat was sailing on the broad Yellow River, Kong Sizhen looked back at the battlefield on the bank, and saw soldiers dying one after another.Her hands couldn't stop trembling, and she cried bitterly: "General Xian, brother, if I can survive, I will definitely avenge you!"

One of the brothers and sisters of the Kong family died and the other fled. The remaining Qing soldiers no longer had the fighting spirit to resist. Some fled to Xingze, and some became captives.

Huang Degong interrogated the captives, and only then did he realize that this pursuit had made a lot of money. This battle not only killed thousands of Qing soldiers, but also killed Kong Youde's son and a general.

Standing beside Kong Tingxun's corpse, Huang Degong said contemptuously: "As fat as a pig, how did Kong Youde raise such a useless son? Damn, if I knew this kid was Kong Youde's precious son, I shouldn't have killed him. He is captured, and may be of great use."

Having scolded enough, Huang Degong remembered Qi Dazhuang's exhortation, and he did not dare to pursue the fleeing Qing soldiers further, and ordered to return to the Taojiadian barracks.

……

On November 23, after a series of stormy actions, the two troops of the Ming army finally joined together.

Li Cunming commanded the soldiers to level Zhuxian Town, Xiangfu and other places, and finally cleaned up the Qing army strongholds near Kaifeng City.The army approached the city of Kaifeng, and Kaifeng became a lonely city surrounded by heavy soldiers.

Huang Degong got the emperor's will. He led 5 people to guard the Yellow River ferry, and the remaining 5 people were led by Qi Dazhuang to go south to participate in the siege campaign.

At this time, there were a total of 25 Ming soldiers outside Kaifeng City.Looking down from the city wall, one can only see endless tents, like a white ocean, while Kaifeng City is an isolated island surrounded by sea water, which may capsize at any time.

The army besieged Kaifeng City, but Li Cunming deliberately slowed down the pace of the attack, and did not give an order to attack the city for several days.

Ren Qi couldn't sit still, and asked, "Your Majesty, why did you slow down?"

Li Cunming roasted the fire, and said with a smile: "Ren Qi, you have made great contributions this time, are you addicted to war? As I said, we must fight steadily. Our 25 soldiers surrounded the city of Kaifeng. The city is full of battles and there are still [-] to [-] Qing." Soldiers, they can be exhausted, so why be so anxious?"

"Your Majesty is playing the game of cat and mouse again, that's fine, torture Kong Youde to death!" Gong Yonggu laughed.

Zhu Yujian said: "Your Majesty's method of marching is so relaxed and unpredictable. It is really admirable! Our army is powerful. If we blindly attack and arouse the enemy's will to resist, even though we can capture Kaifeng City, But the loss is definitely not small. It is better to encircle and not attack, and when the morale of the enemy army is exhausted and the food and grass are exhausted, it will be much easier to fight."

"You still understand military affairs." Li Cunming looked at Zhu Yujian and praised with relief.

Ren Qi laughed: "That's right, if I didn't have General Zhu's assistance, I'm afraid I would suffer a big loss in the Runing Mansion."

"General Ren is humble. If you want to lead the army to fight, I admire you most for always having a strategy to catch others by surprise!" Zhu Yujian said.

Li Cunming laughed, and greeted everyone: "Stop flattering each other, in my opinion, you are all good. Come on, follow me out and have a look."

Standing up, his face darkened, and he asked: "Xia Wanchun, did you find out, where did Zhou Yuji die and die for the country?"
