In Great Kang Castle.
Jian Nu, Niulu, Ezhen, Sahar, Li Jian, and the others were celebrating.
Now, he had used part of his destructive power to take down Great Kang Fort, which was a huge deterrent to Guangning Right Tun Guards.
This would make the thousands of Ming soldiers there not dare to move and threaten the Huang Taiji troops that had already gone south.
Moreover, they had also eliminated Zhu Heng, a formidable enemy.
Over the past five years, several hundred clansmen had fallen at the hands of Zhu Heng of Great Kang Castle.
"Li Jian, I'm very happy that you were able to turn your back on the dark side and help us severely injure Zhu Heng.”
Li Jian did not show any joy on his face.
Instead, he cupped his hands with a stiff expression and said,"Lord Assistant Leader, I've already helped you take down Great Kang Castle. Can you let my family go?"”
The smile on Sahar's face disappeared, and he slowly put down the wine glass in his hand.
"Of course, I have already sent your family to Shengjing City to settle down. As long as you make enough contributions, you will be able to see them soon.”
"You promised me that you would send them to me as long as we take down Fort Great Kang." Li Jian's expression changed as he said angrily.”
"I did agree, but I changed my mind." Sahar snorted coldly.”
"Your family is in my hands, and you've killed so many Ming soldiers. You can't go back anymore. You can only serve our Houjin well.”
Hearing this, Li Jian's face turned red, and anger filled his eyes.
After a while, he hung his head dejectedly and stopped talking.
"Report..."
"Lord Assistant Leader, we found traces of Zhu Heng and his group. They were resting in the Mountain God Temple a few miles away and were discovered by our patrolling scouts.”
Sahar and Li Jian stood up abruptly.
Sahar's eyes revealed a hint of malevolence as he shouted,""Leave thirty people to guard the castle. The rest of you, follow me. We can't let him escape this time.”
Li Jian's expression became complicated.
He knew very well how Zhu Heng treated him.
But for his family, he had no choice but to betray him.
Because he couldn't watch his family die because of him.
Sahar looked at Li Jian's expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl into a sinister smile.
"Later, I'll let you kill Zhu Heng personally. At that time, you'll have no way out.”
Not long after, more than a hundred cavalrymen of the Jian Clan filed out of Great Kang Castle.
Li Jian also led the remaining 40 Ming soldiers to follow behind them.
More than a hundred people rushed towards the encirclement that Zhu Heng had set up.
"Sir, Slave Jian is here. Just as you expected, they have come out in full force.”
Using himself as bait, he lured out the main force of Slave Jian from Great Kang Castle.
Then, the ambush would spread out and destroy this group of Jian Slaves.
This was Zhu Heng's battle plan.
It was very simple, but it was also very effective.
Slave Jian would never have thought that Zhu Heng would suddenly have such a powerful army.
Zhu Heng, who was taking a nap on the chair, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Everyone, get ready for battle and attack with me.”
"Yes, sir!"
Zhu Heng came to the flat ground outside the Mountain God Temple and looked at the forest in the distance with his eagle-like eyes.
That was where the ambush was, less than two kilometers away from the Mountain God Temple.
On the other side of the hill, a total of 20 Mini Napoleon 6-pound field cannons were lined up in a row.
This 6-pound field cannon weighed 389 kilograms, which was very light in comparison.
The cannon had a caliber of 93mm and a range of 1.3km, which was similar to the current Red Specter Cannon.
Even though its power was not satisfactory, it was still quite good for field support firepower.
After all, this cannon was the M1841 model. From the name, one could tell which era this cannon was born in.
"Boom boom boom"
The sound of horse hooves rumbled like war drums.
A group of cavalrymen moved quickly along the road toward the Mountain God Temple.
Sahar wanted to prevent Zhu Heng from running away after learning of the commotion.
Thus, he personally led 80 or so of the cavalry to launch a rapid assault.
The rest of the cavalrymen would act together with Li Jian's troops in the rear, and they were also responsible for monitoring the situation.
Sahar was still very wary of Li Jian.
After all, a rabbit would bite when it was anxious. He had made him miserable and had not fulfilled his promise.
Zhu Zhen, the commander of the cavalry battalion, looked at the approaching cavalrymen through his binoculars. A murderous look flashed in his eyes.
"Have the artillery teams prepare to fire.”
Zhu Zhen said to the messenger beside him.
"Yes, sir!"
When the cavalrymen of the Building Slaves reached the end of the road and were about to climb up the mountain.
As they were going up the mountain, the road became narrower, and their speed could not help but slow down.
After all, the Mountain God Temple was not at the foot of the mountain. They could only follow this road up the mountain.
Fortunately, he could ride a horse up the mountain. It was just that his speed was not as fast as on the road.
"Right now, all artillery units fire.”
The cavalry of the Building Slaves were very crowded on the road, and it was the time for the artillery.
The flag bearer waved his flag, and the order to fire was passed to the artillery team in an instant.
"Tsk tsk tsk."
The fuse quickly ignited.
"Boom boom…"
The 6-pounder field cannons roared, and the solid shells were fired at the Building Slave Cavalry 800 meters away.
