Death warrior! Wuzhong hugged Kuang Ren's waist and turned around to stare at the eight cavalrymen behind him. At this time, he realized that these people were dead soldiers from Dongchang. It was said that there were four groups, one of which was responsible for secretly protecting Chang Yu.
It is said that Chang Yu's assassination of Dorgon was a spur-of-the-moment idea. This possibility cannot be ruled out, but with Chang Yu's cautious nature, how could he really be unprepared at all?
He must at least consider a retreat!
After the assassination, no matter whether he succeeded or not, there were at least three possibilities. First, he would be trapped in the General Military Mansion.
Second, rush out of the General Military Mansion and escape from the city before the enemy.
Third, he rushed out of the General Military Mansion but did not escape from the city.
If we don't even escape from the General Military Mansion, then all other plans will be useless. But if you escape, how can you ensure that you can escape from the city in time?
Chang Yu made detailed considerations. First, he would do it during the day. Second, he would arrange a group of men at the city gate. If he was overtaken and could not rush out in time, or the opponent closed the city gate, this group of men would break off the pursuers or seize the gate. .
But it is not easy to ambush an army in Jinzhou City. Not to say it is impossible, but it is impossible in a short time. You must know that this is Dorgon's territory, the territory under his nose, even with the meticulous work of the Ming army, They must use various identities to lurk carefully.
Furthermore, even if he can successfully lurk a manpower, whether he can rush out or not, this manpower will definitely die!
So Chang Yu gave up the idea after careful consideration.
He lurked this group of men, that is, these twelve dead men, at the ferry in the west of the city, many days in advance. Even when others were still in Ningyuan, these dead men mixed in at the ferry through various channels, and used various identities to Lurk up.
This was his preparation for the retreat. If this group of people lurked in the city and retreated, they would have no way of survival, but there was still a chance of survival in this retreat.
As for whether he could escape in time, he decided to take a gamble!
He did win the bet. Due to the time difference and information gap, he was able to get out of the city one step ahead of the enemy. If in later generations, a phone call...,
"But what if the bet loses? Can't escape from the city, or can't escape from the General Military Mansion?" This question was asked by Wu Zhong, he was too curious.
"If I can't escape, do you think I'm dead?" Chang Yu looked at Wuzhong with a playful expression.
Wu Zhong was stunned: "*** hates you so much. If you fall into his hands, how will you have a chance to survive?"
"Really?" Chang Yu laughed loudly: "Look at Zu Dashou, look at Hong Chengchou, look at those people, aren't they all living well now?"
Um, Wu Zhong said, then raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean, if you are captured, you will surrender?"
Chang Yu rolled his eyes: "If we are trapped in the General Military Mansion, it's hard to say who will capture whom?"
Wu Zhong reacted immediately and glanced at Chang Yu's arms: "Yes, you have that treasure. You only need to hold Dorgon hostage to escape." Then he said: "But what if there is no chance to hold him hostage?"
Chang Yu smiled: "If there is no chance, I will create an opportunity. If there is no chance, I will not surrender even if I am captured, and he will not kill me."
Wuzhong did not ask further questions or refute this time. He knew that the living eunuch of the Ming Dynasty was far more useful than the dead one! We also know that Chang Yu will be used by Dorgon to make deals with the Ming court. Of course, they are deals that will be very detrimental to the Ming court and have a lot of benefits to the Qing court.
In that case, Mingting, who had just taken a breath, would be hit hard again.
"So, you still took a big risk this time, not only for your personal safety but also for our Ming Dynasty." Wu Zhong sighed and looked back, his expression becoming more solemn.
"I can choke when I drink water, and I can stumble when I walk. What can I do these days without risk?" Chang Yu smiled lightly.
"Thank you for being able to laugh. You don't think that just these few people can save us from death, right?" Wuzhong snorted coldly: "The hoofbeats of the horses behind are rapid. There are hundreds of them at least. If you don't have any other arrangements, , Today I have to explain here, then Dorgon will save your life, but he will not save my life."
Chang Yu said nothing, frowned and looked around. At this time, he had rushed out of the ferry several miles away and was running along the way he came. There was wilderness everywhere.
, no one can be seen in the wind and snow, oh no, there is a dense darkness not far behind. Needless to say, a large army is chasing after them.
"Where did this *** go? I finally escaped and was captured again." Chang Yu cursed in a low voice. After hearing this, several people in Wuzhong knew that he really had other plans. Their eyes lit up: "Is there really a plan? "
"Yes, I just don't know if this guy can get here in time." Chang Yu said, taking out the pistol and loading another magazine. It was roughly estimated that there were less than twenty bullets left.
"How long do you think we, a dozen of us, can resist?" Wu Zhong's eyes narrowed into a thin line: "I am exhausted. I can kill only a few people at most, but what comes next..."
"Damn it, do you want me to take care of your wife and children again, and your second uncle?" Chang Yu scolded angrily, and Wu Zhong snorted: "I have a bad feeling, today I'm going to The explanation is here."
Chang Yu wanted to scold him again, but glanced at him and held back. At this time, Wuzhong was covered in blood. Apart from being exhausted, he was also seriously injured and lost too much blood. He could not even ride a horse alone. From the beginning of the General Military Mansion, he kept killing and killing all the way, protecting Chang Yu with all his might, and many times he was stabbed violently in order to rescue Chang Yu.
Look at Kuang Ren and Wang Zhengnan next to them, who is not injured, and they are so exhausted that they don't even have time to bandage them!
There was a whooshing sound in the air. Chang Yu subconsciously leaned down and Wang Zhengnan chopped down a sharp arrow with a knife: "Shout, the *** is catching up."
"My lord, let's go quickly, the humble queen!" The eight dead knights behind them reined in their horses and turned around, drawing their swords and looking at the rolling black shadow not far away. There were at least hundreds of knights rushing towards them.
In fact, there were not just hundreds of cavalry, but thousands of people, more than two thousand soldiers and horses to be exact.
This army was led by Ta Zhan, the internal minister of the Communist Party of China. They were originally going to go out of the city to kill the Ming army wandering outside the city. As soon as they left the camp, they learned that an assassin had escaped from the city, and they immediately chased them. Then he was overtaken by a group of soldiers led by Turge, and they joined forces to pursue them. The hundreds of cavalry in front pursued them faster, and finally caught up.
They were originally one step behind Chang Yu, but Chang Yu was delayed for a moment by the previous enemy force, and was finally pursued.
"You two take Wuzhong and leave first." Chang Yu shouted, drew his sword and turned around the dock. Kuang Ren looked sad and angry: "Sir!"
"If you dare to disobey the order, I will kill all nine of your clans." Seeing that he didn't move, Chang Yu shouted angrily. Wuzhong sneered: "I'm selling my life to you, how can I let you protect me?" As he said this, Chang Yu struggled to dismount. Anxious: "Damn it, what I said won't work, right? I told you before that if I were captured, Dorgon wouldn't dare to touch me at all, but if you fall into his hands, death is a trivial matter. He will also use it to blackmail me!"
"Sir, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave." Wang Zhengnan raised his hand and pointed to the southwest with a solemn look. Chang Yu looked around, and could vaguely see rolling black clouds coming over there in the wind and snow. It was obvious that there was another wave of Centaur.
Unexpectedly, Chang Yu was not angry but happy: "***, it's finally here!"
Ah, could it be one of our own? Wang Zhengnan and others immediately reacted, but at this time the Japanese pursuers were approaching. Chang Yu had no time to say more and yelled: "What are you doing standing still? Get to work!"
