"Your Majesty, in front of us is the center right city.”
Deputy General Chen pointed ahead.
Although they were forced to march, it was already dark when they arrived.
With the last glimmer of light, he could vaguely see a dark city wall near the coast. This castle was very small. After all, it was only a thousand-household residence, and the famous Ningyuan City was 30 miles to the north. Even so, this small city was not easy to take down. These garrisons in Liaodong needed to face the flames of war directly, so the city walls were very high. Last year, when Jierhalang went south, he bypassed Ningyuan and here, directly breaking through the middle and rear garrisons and the front garrisons before retreating. It could be seen that these two castles were not easy to deal with. Moreover, Li Daoxuan only brought a total of 1,000 cavalry. Not only was his strength twice that of the Qing army, but he also lacked the equipment to attack the city. If they could not attack for a long time, Ning Yuan's Qing army would arrive.
"Pass down the decree, continue advancing!"
Li Daoxuan suddenly said.
"Your Majesty?"
Deputy General Chen said in astonishment.
The other officers and soldiers around them were also stunned. It was already risky to attack the Central Right Military Base. If they attacked Ning Yuan again, it would be pure madness. They only had 1,000 people to attack a strong city defended by 1,000 Qing troops. It was like suicide. Furthermore, they had been running for more than 150 miles in a day. At this time, both men and horses were exhausted, and Ning Yuan was still more than 30 miles to the north. Not to mention attacking the city, even if they ran there, these warhorses would have to lie down.
"Pass down the imperial decree. Go around the Central Right Office and attack Ningyuan City directly. Everyone who fights side by side with me today will be my brothers in the future. Everyone will be given a position in the Jinyiwei. I swear to the heavens that I will share wealth with you in the future!”
Li Daoxuan said.
A person's energy was like a woman's cleavage. It would always be there after a squeeze.
The reason why he changed his target was because his superb vision had already seen a few cavalrymen rushing out from the north gate of the Central Right Station. It was obvious that Ningyuan City did not know that they were heading north. If they followed closely behind, they could catch the Qing army in Ningyuan by surprise. Otherwise, once they were fully prepared, it would not be easy to take down this castle that had been destroyed by the wild boar skin.
"Your Majesty…"
Deputy General Chen still wanted to remonstrate.
However, Li Daoxuan raised his hand and stopped him.
"No need to say more. If you believe me, then follow me. I can guarantee that I will drink with you tonight in Ningyuan City. If you don't believe me, then go ahead.”
Li Daoxuan urged his horse forward.
Deputy General Chen and the other officers looked at each other in dismay. Then, he gritted his teeth and urged his horse to follow behind Li Daoxuan. The officers and soldiers also urged their horses forward. At this time, they were also going all out. If the Emperor wasn't afraid, what else did they have to be afraid of? Moreover, the Emperor had been developing more and more like a fantasy, which made them have a blind sense of trust.
After all, the scene yesterday was too shocking.
A thousand cavalrymen quietly passed through the central right station under the cover of the night and headed north to Ningyuan. Although they did not take the main road, the terrain was flat. Many of the cavalrymen were in this area, and the roads were familiar. Even though their horses were exhausted and dozens of them fell along the way, leaving hundreds of people behind, they finally arrived at Ningyuan an hour later.
"Everyone, dismount and rest."
In a forest by the Ningyuan River, Li Daoxuan looked at Ningyuan City on the other side of the river with his superb vision.
"Your Majesty, we will attack at dawn.”
Deputy General Chen said.
"No, attack now!"
Li Daoxuan smiled and patted him on the shoulder.""But it won't be you guys, it'll be this one who will attack!”
Ning Yuan.
"What did you say?"
said Melljangilde incredulously.
He was Yang Guli's nephew, and he was a Manzhou official with the Yellow Banner. He was originally the one who slaughtered Yangzhou with Duoduo after entering the pass, and was later given the title of first-class marquis. Of course, he was only a Meile Zhangjing now. As the deputy general of Ai Duli, the Duke of Gushan's Ezhen State, he was originally stationed in Jinzhou. After Wu Sangui abandoned Ningyuan and went south, he led a Manzhou official with the Yellow Banner of Niulu. In addition, there were four other Han troops with the Yellow Banner of Niulu who were stationed in Ningyuan and Zhongyou. In fact, they were just guards. Everyone knew that the Ming army would definitely not return.
However, the messenger in front of him told him that the Ming army had returned.
This, this was completely illogical.
" Master, it's true. When the Ming army's cavalry arrived at the central rear post, Lord Fu Hai, who was patrolling, was completely wiped out. Only one of them returned. He collapsed in the central right post due to his injuries. According to him, there was still a fierce general in the Ming army. He was like Xu Chu, who had the courage to fight against ten thousand men with a spiked club.”
The Han flag messenger said while lying on the ground.
"Bravery? You Han?"
Ilder was amused.
However, at this moment, an earth-shattering explosion sounded from outside. Immediately after, there was a loud bang. Countless rubble fell from above his head. The messenger was so frightened that he jumped up. However, at the same time, a small black shadow smashed down from the rubble and hit the messenger. The latter was like a toad that had been hit by a hammer, instantly turning into a bloody mess.
"Enemy attack!"
Without hesitation, Ilder jumped up and rushed out. At the same time, a series of screams came from the city wall not far away from him. With the help of the starlight, he could see a similarly black figure standing on the black wall of the Spring Harmony Gate. He was holding a black object in his hand and spinning it above his head. Then, the object suddenly left his hand and streaked across the night sky, falling in an elegant arc. It landed right in the middle of a group of Qing soldiers rushing toward the city wall.
It was a Wolf Fang Slap.
It was just a log with countless triangular nails hanging on a capstan on the top of the city wall. When the enemy climbed the city wall, they could drop it down and smash it. After smashing it, they could use the capstan to pull it up. The result of this thing smashing into the crowd at high speed could be imagined. It was a tragic sight!
"Quick, enemy attack!"
Eider roared anxiously.
Of course, he didn't even need to shout. The thousand soldiers stationed in Ningyuan City were all awakened. The guards on duty on the city wall were holding all kinds of weapons and swarming towards this terrifying enemy.
It was Li Daoxuan.
He didn't even ride a horse and walked to Ningyuan alone. There wasn't much water in the moat in this season. He just walked to the foot of the wall and threw a rope to climb up. His hearing and vision were very developed, so he could avoid the patrolling Qing soldiers on the city wall. The process of climbing the city was easy and simple. Then, he turned a cannon from the city wall and lit the fuse. In this special way, he called out to the Qing army. As for why he almost hit Eider...
Uh, he was so eye-catching in the Governor's Office. Who else could he attack if not him?
"Fire!"
Just as Li Daoxuan picked up the second Wolf Fang Scepter, a Qing army officer who had rushed over from below the city wall shouted.
A dozen muskets spewed out flames at the same time.
The three bullets hit Li Daoxuan's chest almost at the same time. His body suddenly shook and the Wolf Fang Slapping was thrown out of his hand. Like a ferocious monster, it carried hundreds of triangular nails and crashed into the Qing army. Then, blood and flesh flew everywhere. However, Li Daoxuan, who was on the city wall, did not seem to be injured at all. In fact, he was indeed not injured at all. This guy was wearing a layer of cotton armor and two layers of chain armor. He also had a mountain pattern armor tied to his front and back. The power of the musket was really not enough to penetrate such a defense.
"Come on, hurt each other!"
Dressed like an iron lump, he stood on the wall of the Spring Harmony Gate with his back facing the stars. He held his two favorite spiked clubs and roared arrogantly.
Then, a group of Qing soldiers arrived.
With a roar, he swung his spiked club and charged forward like a monster. In the blink of an eye, it brought with it a rain of blood.
The two specially made spiked clubs were like two meat grinders, wreaking havoc in the middle of the Qing army. The huge force coupled with the pile of triangular nails caused flesh and blood to fly everywhere. Especially at this time, he was wearing heavy armor. Not to mention cold weapons such as knives and spears, even muskets could not penetrate him. He even had an iron face. He did not have to worry about being cut like last time. His crazy strange strength was fully displayed. From the narrow city wall, they could only see the Qing soldiers flying down with blood. In less than a minute, the first batch of 20 Qing soldiers had all been killed.
"Come on! Dog tartars, let me stab you ********
"Jump!"
Suddenly, Xiao Qian's voice sounded in his mind.
He jumped down without any hesitation. Almost at the same time, a cannon not far away spewed flames. A cannonball passed behind him with a strange whistle, and he smashed into the Qing army.
The moment he landed, he did not hesitate at all. The pair of spiked clubs swept out ferociously. At the same time, he turned his body to the side at the fastest speed. Two spears almost simultaneously brushed past his body, one in front and one behind. The other spear stabbed into his neck, but it was blocked by two layers of chain mail and cotton armor. His spiked club instantly smashed all the attackers away.
"Monster, this is a monster. Hurry, hurry up and kill him!”
With a pale face, Ilde kept urging the soldiers beside him to step forward.
All the Qing soldiers in Ningyuan City had come from all over the city. Because of the shooting range from the high ground, the cannons on the city wall could not shoot Li Daoxuan who was standing at the foot of the wall. Even the cannons on the other walls could not shoot him because of the buildings in the city. Only guns, bows, swords, and spears could hit Li Daoxuan. Even if they could hit him, they could not penetrate his heavy armor. Even if they could, they would at most cause flesh wounds. His Wolverine-like rapid healing ability could easily resolve it.
The only problem was that he would be exhausted to death if he waited too long.
However, it wouldn't be long.
Just as the Qing army was attracted to the Chunhe Gate in the east of the city, dozens of grappling hooks quietly appeared on the wall of the Yongning Gate in the west of the city. A stream of silver armor was flowing across the open field outside the Yongning Gate.
