Chang Yu didn't know whether Tu Yuan had caught up with the Qing army's rear, whether he had fought or not, or how the fight was going. Chang Yu didn't know. He just kept his head down and hurried on. He was cautious all the way, but it went surprisingly smoothly. By the time it got light, he had probably run more than a hundred miles. In the end, I was exhausted.
"Perhaps Tu Yuan bit the Tatar's tail and diverted the Tatar's attention, so that we could have an unimpeded journey." Kuang Ren came back from exploring the road ahead and said that there was a small fishing village to the east that was relatively hidden and where he could rest. He thought that the journey was surprisingly smooth. The merit of Tu Yuan.
Maybe, but Chang Yu is more inclined to think that Dorgon didn't expect to see through his attempt at all, and he boldly crossed the line of fire and waited one step ahead of him.
After all, in Dorgon's impression, the Ming army was so exhausted that they were chasing after them from afar. Not to mention that they couldn't guess their intentions, even if they guessed, they were unable to catch up.
The small fishing village on the seaside is quite small, with thirty or fifty households. Early in the morning, the fishermen discovered that a group of officers and soldiers had surrounded the village. They were frightened to death. Kuang Ren spent a lot of effort to calm them down: the officers and soldiers were passing by to borrow money. It's just a rest in the treasure land. There is a Tatar army marching dozens of miles to the west...
Officers and soldiers are not very good these days. The fishermen were frightened when they heard that there were Tatar soldiers. They almost jumped into the sea without being frightened. Until they saw that this Ming army did not enter the village, but dismounted and disarmed and rested on the spot without any harassment. Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then sent some food and water with discernment.
Chang Yu and his party brought dry food, so they refused the fishermen's food and only accepted fresh water. After drinking and feeding the horses, the soldiers leaned against the wall and squinted for a while.
The little eunuch was more energetic than ordinary people. Even after running all night, he was still in high spirits. So he looked for the fishermen and asked where he was.
After the fishermen talked for a long time, Chang Yu couldn't figure out the specific location, because most of these fishermen had never traveled far and only knew about villages within a radius of more than ten years. Chang Yu had never heard of this.
"There is a town called Hancun more than 20 miles to the west, and Cangzhou is a little further west." Finally, there was a little old man who had seen the world. His words made the little eunuch excited, and he instantly determined his location. .
Later, Huanghua City was located more than a hundred miles east of Cangzhou. Of course, there was no Huanghua City at this time but belonged to Yanshan County under the jurisdiction of Hejian Prefecture. However, the predecessor of Huanghua City was Hancun, a big town known by old fishermen.
It turned out that we were here. Chang Yu confirmed the location in his mind and chatted with the fishermen for a while. Just when he was about to relax for a while, he suddenly heard a noise outside the village. He quickly got up and ran out, only to see Chen Suole leading someone to escort him. Looking at the two Qing army spies covered in blood, he suddenly frowned, how could the Qing army spies run so far.
But he quickly thought of something. The coastline he was on was the Bohai Bay, which happened to be a bend, so he was closer to the Qing army. The old fisherman just now said that Han Village was twenty or thirty miles to the west, and the Qing army Directly opposite to the south is Huanghua City, which is now Hancun!
Less than twenty or thirty miles apart! Moreover, there are Tatar scouts appearing. Could it be that the main force of the Tatars has just arrived here and is standing side by side with them at this time!
It's a long story, but these are the problems that Chang Yu realized almost immediately, and immediately asked Chen Ruxin to gather the men and horses, put on armor and mount their horses, ready to leave at any time.
It turned out that Chang Yu's men and horses were resting, and Chen Suole went to take over Kuang Ren's guarding the perimeter. However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered that several cavalry were approaching from the west. Both sides were a little confused at the time. They couldn't figure out the other's situation and tentatively approached, only to see through the other's identity. , the Qing army inspected the horse and saw that the Ming army had to fight against the horse and was about to flee.
But Chen Suole and Kuang Ren could not let him escape, otherwise their whereabouts would be exposed, so they chased them wildly. The Qing army spies had superb riding skills and were difficult to catch. However, Kuang Ren and others were unparalleled in their arrow skills and killed four of them directly. The two men were captured alive and hurriedly came to see Chang Yu.
Chang Yu's interrogation method was simple and crude. He drew his dagger and said, "It's easy to say it, but it's easy to die. I'll make it as difficult as you have."
The spy knew that there was no way to survive, and he just wanted to be happy, so he said so.
As expected, Dorgon's main force was in Hancun at this time, only more than twenty miles away from Chang Yu! I don't know about the other spies.
After Chang Yu gave the spies a good time, he immediately gathered his troops and headed south quickly close to the coast. Even if he was exhausted, he had to escape quickly. If he was betrayed by the Qing army, the only way to escape was to jump into the sea.
Chang Yu rushed another twenty miles away in one breath, and when he saw that there was no movement behind him, Chang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but felt that his back was already soaked. This was the first time in his life that he felt so nervous, because he knew that if he was The Qing army found out, it was really a dead end!
At this time, it was already bright, and the soldiers were so tired that they rode slowly. When the people nearby saw officers and soldiers passing by, they hid far away. However, Chang Yu asked people to catch up and told them that there was a Tatar army in the west. Don't run around and be ready to avoid it at any time. , but he guessed that Dorgon was in a hurry to go to Qingzhou Prefecture and had no intention of running to the beach to rob poor fishermen.
"Mr. Factory, we should run ahead of the Tatars now, right?" Jia Waixiong was so thirsty that his throat was about to burst into flames.
Chang Yu nodded slightly: "Maybe, but it is not a safe range. There is no guarantee that the Tatars will not find out." Then he ordered the soldiers to grit their teeth and continue to move forward.
It was nearly midnight when they arrived at a remote place. The soldiers found shade and dismounted to rest. Chen Suole was ordered to guard the perimeter and confirm where they were. He saw what appeared to be a large village a few miles to the southwest, so he led more than ten of his men to mount their horses. past.
After walking nearly ten miles, I discovered that it was a large town. I asked a hundred people and they said it was Liubao Town, a remote corner of the northeast of Haifeng County (now Wudi County).
Chen Suole thanked him and asked for water. The people were also curious and asked, "Where is the military master going?"
"It doesn't matter where you go, but you have to leave quickly." Chen Suole poured enough water and said to the people: "The Tatars are coming. Get away as soon as possible. Don't run to the west or east."
Although the Qing army was in a hurry to go to Qingzhou Prefecture and there would be no large-scale plunder along the way, the only way it could pass was Liubao Town, which should be within the range of the Qing army's only way, so they would inevitably suffer disaster.
But the common people looked suspicious: "Master, don't be kidding, I haven't heard of any Tatars entering the country."
"Now that you've heard about it, tell the neighbors quickly. I'm afraid it won't take more than two or three hours..." As Chen Suole was speaking, suddenly the men on guard outside the door rushed into the courtyard, roaring: "The Tatars are coming." Before the sound fell, I heard the ground shaking and the mountains shaking, and there was a lot of noise, mixed with cries and screams.
Chen Suole's expression changed, and he wondered why the Tatars came so quickly. Could it be that the Tatars were spying on the horse, drew out their swords, ran to the door, and peeked out, asking, "How many people are there?"
"Thousands!" The subordinate also looked solemn.
ah! How come there are so many and they come so fast? Didn’t they run ahead of them just now? Chen Suole felt that the situation was serious. He turned around and looked at his more than ten men with tragic faces: "We are going to die here today. Brothers, if you die, you must change and stand up straight, don't fucking embarrass the Ming Dynasty and the little governor."
"Boss Chen, if you've got this job, don't talk nonsense, just do it. Killing one is enough to earn one by killing two, but you won't kneel down and beg for death. Brothers can't afford to lose that man!" shouted his brothers.
"Yes, we can't afford to lose that person!" Everyone felt that thousands of Qing troops suddenly arrived, and the town was going to be flattened in the blink of an eye. They would not be spared, so it was better to fight vigorously.
Unexpectedly, just as everyone gritted their teeth and waited for the Qing army to rush into the courtyard for a decisive battle, the noise outside gradually subsided. Only some heart-wrenching cries were heard, but the original roar of the horses and the roar of the crowd were not heard.
"Tou Chen, the Tatars are gone!" One of his subordinates who went out to spy ran back. Chen Suole was startled and hurried out of the yard, only to see several corpses lying on the street. The family members were crying heartbrokenly, but no one was seen. soldiers.
I asked the witnesses and they said that a large number of Tatars rode across the road and killed more than ten people on the street, but they did not stop to loot.
Um... Chen Suole couldn't figure it out, so he asked the people to flee here quickly, because there were tens of thousands of Qing troops behind them. The group of people who didn't grab them just now were probably in a hurry, leaving it to the Qing troops behind to grab them.
When Chen Suole came back to report that the eunuch had listened, Chang Yu shouted, "No!"
