Chapter 564 Worthy of being a running away general(2/2)
Changping
After the eighth year of Chongzhen's reign, he and Li Fang teamed up to kill Yang Guli, the son-in-law of Jian Nu, and Zhu Cixiang directly appointed Yan Yingyuan as a guerrilla general to garrison Changping.
Later, Yan Yingyuan was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Changping and allowed to train troops in Changping to prevent slave invaders from establishing a border. Yan Yingyuan fully demonstrated his talents.
Not only did he respond to the crown prince's call to divide land in Changping, he also trained a strong army of 6,000 men in Changping.
The place that best demonstrates his value is that Yan Yingyuan can make all the people of Changping become soldiers with just one order.
This is also the main reason why in history, little Jiangyin was able to hold on for 81 days under the attack of more than 200,000 Qing troops without anyone surrendering.
This time knowing that Jiannu would enter the customs again, Zhu Cihong sent Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun to Changping to assist Yan Yingyuan, so that the three anti-Qing princes in history could gather together.
Of course, this time Yan Yingyuan is still the commander-in-chief, while Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun are just two generals.
After the two arrived in Changping, Yan Yingyuan immediately discovered what was different about them. He completely forgot that he was the commander-in-chief and got along very well with the two commander-in-chiefs.
Although they were in Changping, they sent out more than a dozen detachments day and night to inquire about the slave establishment. They already knew the outcome of the Miyun battle.
Today, the three of them were discussing the issue of the slaves entering the customs in the lobby. Suddenly, they came in all night and reported:
"General, a Ming army is being chased by Jiannu. It is still more than twenty miles away from Changping!"
"What?"
The three of them were all shocked. They had never thought that such a situation would happen. You must know that the people who fought were all the National Protector Army. Could it be that the National Protector Army could be defeated by Jiannu? This...
They stood up from their seats almost at the same time, and Yan Yingyuan asked hurriedly:
"Which Ming army did Jiannu pursue?"
The general flag was not collected at night and he hurriedly saluted:
"General, those being pursued are Shunyi Tangtong and Baoding General Li Chongzhen. There are about two thousand troops. It looks like they are defeated!"
When they heard that the people being hunted were not the National Guards, the three of them suddenly realized.
Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun asked almost at the same time:
"How many troops are there to build slaves?"
"I report to the two generals that there are about 500 slaves, and they are the true love Xinjueluo Sahalian with red flags on the top of the mountain..."
"What a shame and humiliation. Five hundred people chased more than two thousand people and fled..."
When they heard that the five hundred Jiannu were chasing two thousand Ming troops, the three of them rolled their eyes in anger, cursing Tang Tong and Li Zhongzhen for their incompetence. At the same time, they were secretly happy that they finally had the chance to kill Jiannu.
"You two, since the Jian slaves came to sacrifice their lives, wouldn't we be sorry for Lao Daishan if we didn't accept them? You guard Changping, and I will kill these five hundred Jian slaves!"
"Follow the order!"
Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun both wanted to follow Yan Yingyuan to kill Jiannu. They had been training with the National Guard Army for more than a year and had gone out to suppress bandits several times. They had never killed Jiannu!
However, as General Qian from the Ming Dynasty Protector Army, they knew they could never disobey the Commander-in-Chief's order, so they immediately stood up and saluted to receive the order.
"Zhang Shuting, the time has come to test the Changping soldiers. Immediately lead two thousand Changping soldiers to fight with my general!"
"Here!"
Zhang Shuting was originally the commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Army. After killing Yang Guli, he was left by the crown prince to train in Changping. He trained all the 6,000 elite soldiers in Changping.
Seeing his companions in the National Defense Army killing all sides, Zhang Shuting, a guerrilla general who was only seventeen years old, almost suffocated to death. Today he finally got a chance to fight Jiannu.
After receiving the order, the young general immediately went to the school grounds to mobilize two thousand Changping soldiers. Under the leadership of Yan Yingyuan, he left Changping and quickly met Tang Tong and his companions on their way to escape.
"Hurry up, don't let Jian Nu catch up..."
Although the escaping general had already left Jiannu some distance away, Tang Tong was still anxious at the thought that there was still some distance to Changping. He was really afraid of being caught up by Jiannu.
Li Chongzhen was better than him. At this moment, Li Chongzhen was in a state of confusion, thinking about how to explain to Emperor Shenwu!
