Relying on the two strategies of attacking from the east and fighting with open fire, Qin Feng led his team for more than sixty miles in one breath without encountering any obstacles on the way.
Seeing that he could reach his destination after walking another twenty miles, Qin Feng did not relax at all, but became even more cautious!
There is an old saying: If you travel a hundred miles, you will be as careful as you started, and you will never fail!
The meaning of this famous saying is that the closer something is to success, the more likely it is that accidents will occur, so you must always be careful and vigilant and not be careless, so as not to fail.
The fact is, with success in sight, an accident really happened!
"Stop, who are you?"
While Qin Feng and others were marching, a group of Jurchen soldiers, about one hundred and fifty people, suddenly rushed out from the nearby woods, all wearing red armor with white edges, and quickly blocked the road ahead.
He could see clearly by the firelight that the leader was a young general, about twenty years old, who was riding a yellow gelding and holding an armor-piercing gun. He looked quite majestic, and judging from his facial features, he was not a Jurchen, but a Han.
There is also an identification flag behind him, with a large gold character written on it, indicating that the young general's surname is Jin, which further proves his Han identity!
Seeing that the road was blocked, Xiong Da came over and whispered: "General, there are not many Japanese soldiers on the opposite side, only 150 or 60 people. How about we swarm them and kill them all?"
"No!"
Qin Feng thought for a moment, then shook his head.
The opponent only has more than 150 people, and there are more than 1,000 people on his side. If they swarm them, it will not be difficult to kill them all.
The problem is, once a fight breaks out, the other side's soldiers will definitely blow the horn to warn!
Once the horn sounds, the surrounding Jurchen soldiers will quickly gather over, and it will be all over.
What should I do if I can't force the kill but I still have to pass this level?
Qin Feng patted his lower abdomen a few times, and a bold, ruthless, and feasible strategy immediately emerged from it. Then he urged his horse forward, and with a smile on his face, he clasped his fists and saluted, "Is this the other side, Jin Xuanzhong, General Jin?"
"It's Kim. Who are you?"
"I am Ni Daye, a member of the Zhengbai Banner, and a Niulu Zhangjing under the Fourteenth Baylor!"
"Ni Daye, Niulu Zhangjing of Zhengbai Banner, how come I have never seen you or heard your name?"
"Haha, General Jin is such a noble man and forgets things. On October 25 last year, when the Qianqiu Banquet was held for the Great Khan in the Chongzheng Hall in the palace, I met and had a few words with General Jin. We also toasted a glass of wine, don’t you remember?”
"Oh, is this happening?"
"Haha, of course there is. Maybe there were too many people toasting at that time, and I surrendered not long ago, so General Jin didn't remember it. It's excusable, it's excusable!"
………
After every battle with the Jurchens, Qin Feng would personally interrogate the prisoners and collect various intelligence.
Therefore, Qin Feng did not dare to know everything about the people and things on the Jurchen Army side, but he also knew a lot.
The identity of the young general named Jin on the other side was deduced based on that information.
You must know that the surname Jin is a minor surname among the Han people, and the population is not large. As for the Han generals surnamed Jin who surrendered to the Jurchens, there are even fewer generals. The most famous among them is Jin Li and his son.
Jin Li, a native of Liaodong, was born into a military family. His family inherited the rank of Third Rank and Commander Tongzhi. He was later transferred to the Yingmu Army and was appointed deputy staff general, stationed in Guangning City, an important town in western Liaoning.
In the second year of the Apocalypse, Tianming Khan Nurhachi led his army to attack Guangning City. After the city was defeated, most of the soldiers who defended the city died in the battle. Only Jin Li was greedy for life and feared death, and led some troops to surrender.
Because he surrendered voluntarily, Nurhachi was very happy, so he was incorporated into the Xianghongqi and given the title of Jia La E Zhen.
From then on, Jin Li became a member of the Jurchen army. He followed in the south and north, fought in the east and in the west. He was ruthless and ruthless in killing his compatriots, so he was appreciated, and his official position was promoted one after another. .
Jin Li had an only son,
His real name was Jin Yichao. After surrendering, he took the initiative to change his name to Jin Zhongzhong to show his loyalty to Dai Jin!
Qin Feng learned about the Jin family's father and son from the prisoners.
The young general I met this time was named Jin. He was about twenty years old and was wearing armor with a red flag. Therefore, we boldly guessed that it was Jin Zhongzhong.
It turned out that the guess was right, the person coming was none other than Jin Zhongzhong!
Relying on his father's relationship, Jin Xiaozhong got an official position as Niu Luzhangjing more than a year ago. This time, he was ordered by the flag owner to lead a group of troops to patrol nearby. He saw a team approaching with great fanfare. Just stepped in to intercept it.
Unexpectedly, a man who called himself Ni Daye came out from the opposite side. Not only did he call out his name, but he also talked about Huang Taiji's birthday on October 25th last year.
This greatly reduced Jin Xuanzhong's vigilance, thinking that the other party was really one of his own, otherwise he would not know so clearly.
As for not knowing the other party, this is actually not surprising.
In recent years, the Jurchen army has conquered cities and captured territory, winning consecutive battles, and more and more Ming officials and generals have surrendered. Ni Daye is probably one of them, because he surrendered not long ago and his official position is not high, so I don't know it myself.
Although his vigilance was greatly reduced, out of his patrol duties, Jin Xuanzhong still asked: "Ni Zhangjing, aren't your troops from Zhengbai Banner responsible for searching due north? Why are you here?"
"Well... to be honest, we were originally searching in the north, but after searching and searching, we found traces of the Mighty Heavenly Army, so we immediately chased after it, but after chasing after it, we ended up here. Already!"
"What, you are chasing that Mighty Heavenly Army, have you seen that Qin Feng?"
"Exactly, we chased all the way, but we lost him nearby, but he must not have gone far. He should be hiding somewhere nearby. That Qin Feng is also among them. General Jin is patrolling here, and he must be very aware of the nearby terrain. You’re familiar, how about catching up with us?”
"no problem!"
Facing the invitation, Jin Xiaozhong agreed without hesitation, and his face was full of joy.
You know, a few days ago, the Great Khan Huang Taiji personally ordered: Those who capture Qin Feng alive belong to Banner Master and Baylor, and add five Niulu soldiers and horses!
An ordinary general who was not the banner holder, Baelor was promoted to three levels and was rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold, 3,000 horses, 5,000 strong oxen, 50,000 fat sheep... and 2,000 slaves.
Jin Xuanzhong had been salivating over this reward for a long time. Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, he couldn't miss it, so he immediately led his team to join the opponent's team.
But after the rendezvous, Jin Xiaozhong discovered that something was wrong!
You must know that the various branches of the Jurchen army are either all Jurchens, or a mixture of Jurchens, Mongols, and Han people.
And the troops led by Ni Daye were all Han Chinese, with no Jurchens or Mongolians at all. This is too abnormal, isn't it? Is there something wrong with it?
No, you have to ask yourself clearly.
Thinking of this, Jin Xiaozhong was about to ask when Ni Daye, who was beside him, suddenly pointed to the southeast and said excitedly: "General Jin, look quickly. There is a flash of fire over there. It must be the mighty Tianwei Army. Let's hurry up." Go over and capture Qin Feng alive!"
"The Mighty Heavenly Army, the fire, is there, why didn't I see it, did you...swipe...pop!"
Hearing that traces of the Tianwei Army had been discovered, Jin Xiaozhong quickly turned his head to look, only to find that it was dark and nothing in the distance.
Just when he was about to ask questions, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He flew up, flying very high, and the world was spinning... He also saw a headless corpse below. He fell off the horse and looked very tall. It looked familiar...and then I didn't know anything else.
"Brothers, kill!"
"Swipe...plop...plop!"
Just when Qin Feng suddenly took action and chopped down Jin Xuanzhong with a knife, his soldiers also drew their weapons and started killing the Jurchen soldiers crazily!
The Jurchen soldiers were unprepared and did not have a numerical advantage. As a result, within a few breaths, they
They were all chopped down. As for the warning horn, it was naturally too late to blow it!
"Quickly, clean the battlefield, take away all the corpses, and bury the blood stains with sand. Don't leave any traces, lest they be discovered by other Jurchen troops!"
"As you command!"
Under Qin Feng's command, the soldiers quickly packed up everything, then held torches and continued to advance with great fanfare.
Long story short.
The team continued to advance for more than twenty miles, and finally arrived near Dongshengwei at the third watch.
Although it had been several years, Qin Feng and others quickly found the ancient tombs of the Xiongnu nobles, and then used shovels and swords to dig hard.
