――――――――――
The beautiful scenery on the grassland was unforgettable. Secret Yin and these troops did not return. It was not that they did not want to go back, but before they could reach Zhang Jiakou, they were stopped by Zhang Bei's garrison.
Standing far in front of them was Zhang Bei's Green Camp. There were no less than five to six hundred people in uniform, with swords drawn and guns in hand. Their shouts shook the sky. The vanguard thought that the Han soldiers were mutinizing and hurriedly ordered the vanguard to be on high alert. In fact, there was no need to report to the Secret. There were only 2000 people in the team and they could see the situation at a glance.
Secret Yin was also very surprised. Who was the other party? Secret Yin was not afraid. The soldiers were all riding Horqin horses. If anything went wrong, they could immediately leave the Green Camp infantry behind. A military officer galloped out of the enemy's formation. He was a fourth-grade commander-in-chief dressed in a tiger robe with eight pythons. After some conversation, Secret Yin finally understood what was going on.
Kuer led 6,000 cavalrymen to surround Hongli. They were defeated and escaped. Their lives were unknown. In addition, they suffered heavy losses and were now asking for help everywhere. Originally, the North Green Camp only had three battalions of infantry, and Yongzheng had transferred 1,000 to fight in Ningxia. After receiving the request for help, the garrison commander was anxious. What could the remaining 500 infantry do? How could a small fourth-rank Han official dare to say no after receiving Hongli's death order? As they were marching, they encountered an army with more than 200 horses, so they wanted to ask which army they were from.
After Secret Yin understood the situation, he was very puzzled. Why did they still look so tense when they saw it?
Secret Yin was a close minister of the emperor, and he, an officer stationed outside the capital, did not dare to be disrespectful. He first saluted the army, then held down Secret Yin, who was about to get up from the carriage, and told him the reason for the alert formation.
From the Hongli military report, he learned that Hongli's garrison was originally very stable. The enemy's cavalry was not good at siege warfare, and the enemy did not gain any advantage after several sneak attacks. Kuer was also very cunning. On the one hand, he would always send the same troops to harass the defenders repeatedly to deceive them of the number of troops he had. On the other hand, he would constantly send cavalry to harass the surrounding counties. Hongli immediately thought that the enemy cavalry did not exceed three thousand, but after receiving emergency reports from the surrounding areas, he judged that there were more than ten thousand people. After repeatedly sending scouts to verify, they finally came to a more reasonable conclusion: The total number of enemy cavalry was around 6,000, but they were scattered widely. There were no more than 3,000 people near Shengjing who were used to attack the city, and there were other equal numbers scattered around the surrounding towns and counties.
The adventurism in Hongli's heart rose again.
What Hongli wanted was to gain the favor of the emperor in front of his father. Perhaps Yongzheng would see that he was both civil and military, and had everything.
As he was guarding the city wall, he was not sure how Hongli, who had led 5,000 cavalry and 1,000 firearms battalions, had been defeated. However, it was definitely related to a cavalry unit wearing the uniform of the Qing army. This cavalry suddenly appeared at the left rear of the enemy cavalry camp, attacking the enemy cavalry and forcing them to retreat to the west. The morale of Yin Bi was greatly boosted, and he quickly chased after them. Hongli, who was eager to make a contribution, ignored him and chased him into the distance.
In the evening, the uneasy Fu Quan discovered that nearly 5000 enemy cavalry had appeared at the foot of Shengjing City. He knew that something bad was going to happen. In his fear, he quickly called for help.
Secret Yin, this prince, sat on the main seat. Secret Yin actually knew what he was thinking. If the six hundred infantrymen wanted to break through the enemy cavalry's blockade, they would simply be sending themselves to their deaths. However, if he was dragged in, he would have more manpower and more capital to fight for his life. If they retreated, the prince would help them share some of the responsibility of being afraid of the enemy.
Everyone was afraid of death. People who had just escaped death were very afraid of death. People who had just escaped death and were promoted and made a fortune were even more afraid of death. The people who had just escaped death, got promoted, and made a fortune, and could return to the capital's comfortable nest, were scared to death when they heard that there was going to be another war!
When Secret Yin saw the shocked and angry expressions of the Green Camp officers, he thought to himself,"" I'm a modern person who also seeks good fortune to avoid danger. I just crawled out of a pile of dead people and then crawled back in," said Jia Shanghong Li.
Secret Yin gritted his teeth and made a decision. He told them righteously that if there was no court order, as a Manchu, the army would be obliged to run. Seeing the soldiers of the Green Camp fighting a bloody battle, he was deeply moved. He was willing to give the horses to the soldiers of the Green Camp and walk back to the capital.
"I am stationed here by the imperial edict to control all the troops outside the pass. Now that the situation is critical, all armies, regardless of their duties, must come to the rescue. Those who violate the order will be beheaded in front of the army.”
