Chapter 224 Reversal
The cheers of the black slaves pulled Wang Xuejun's thoughts back.
When I looked up, there was no trace of the enemy in front of the formation.
Looking left and right, I saw the Qing cavalry, who stopped the war horses from afar, and watched his team continue to roll forward from a distance.
"Here's it rushing out?" Wang Xuejun was a little confused.
He counted his losses according to the calculation method of the triangle, which made his heart twitch: "Just just this period of charge, with the power of his invincible Modao team, his reduction of staff here still reached 500.
Looking at the enemy, there were probably about 4,000 Qing soldiers lying on the road they came over.
He raised his hand, and the entire front arrow formation remained as motionless.
Such an action immediately caused a commotion between the waiting and watching the Qing soldiers.
"Why? You won't break through, you will improve your attack?"
There is such a possibility. Judging from this war, Wang Xuejun just didn't care about it.
They slowly turned their horse's head, met together, slowly retreated to the south, and finally disappeared under the horizon.
"Stop moving forward and camp on the spot."
Wang Xuejun issued such an order.
Zhao Zhenwu, who was by his side, asked in confusion: "The enemy has already rescued the siege. We should take this opportunity to speed up the marching, leave the battlefield, and cross the Yellow River Flood and join Mr. Li Yan's team as soon as possible."
"How far is this place from the Yellow Flood?"
Zhao Zhenwu looked around and then did not count in his heart: "There is about fifty miles away from the Yellow River, and at most it will not exceed a hundred miles."
"You send someone to the Yellow River to see if the children's team has passed?"
Zhao Zhenwu replied: "If we hadn't fought here, the patrol information of the Jinyiwei would have arrived long ago. They would have brought us news. I guess they would be on the periphery of the battlefield at this time."
Sure enough, when he was talking about this, three fast horses rushed from the east, and three brothers wearing Jinyiwei costumes came to Wang Xuejun and flew off the horse and reported: "Your Majesty, my subordinates brought the previous news."
Wang Xuejun asked anxiously: "How is the situation? Have the children all passed the yellow zone? How much is the loss? Li Yanke made proper arrangements?"
The Jinyiwei quickly reported: "The prince held the enemy in Changhuan for 5 days, and Mr. Li Yan mobilized the local people and army in advance. In the Yellow River Flood, he used branches, door panels and other things to open a passage for the children's team, which allowed the children's team to safely pass the Yellow River Flood."
Another Jinyiwei reported: "I was sent by Mr. Li Yan. The husband has set up a child camp in Cao County. He hired a large number of local women to prepare for the welcome. As soon as the children arrived, they were immediately taken care of."
The third Jinyiwei reported with a sad expression: "Because the children were poor and weak, even though they were fully cared for by the soldiers during the march, when they arrived at the Daying of Cao County, there were still more than 2,000 children who died of illness on the road."
Then he raised his chest again: "But no matter what, we saved 150,000 children."
Although Wang Xuejun felt distressed when he heard this number, it was a huge victory to be able to save so many children.
As long as these children grow up and live well, they will have a population of 200,000 and 300,000 in the future.
After paying such a great price, I finally saved a trace of vitality and hope for the future for the suffering Han people.
This price is worth it.
"Zhao Zhenwu, you immediately notify Mr. Xu Jie of Daming Mansion and ask him to withdraw from Daming Mansion and return to Shandong."
Zhao Zhenwu quickly reminded: "Ah Ge, who has already passed the Qinghe River, is only one day away from us. The safety of the prince is very important. Let's set off and retreat to Cao County to meet Mr. Li Yan."
Wang Xuejun smiled coldly and shook his head gently: "In order to buy Mr. Xu Jie some time to retreat, I cannot withdraw to Cao County. I want to attract Ajige's team and go south for a while. Then I go directly to Henan to rescue Miss Zhang."
When Zhao Zhenwu heard of this plan, he was shocked at the time: "The prince is in the court of the world, so he must not do this."
Wang Xuejun shook his head firmly: "If you want to restore the Ming Dynasty and truly unite the court, you need everyone to work together and unite.
I did this not only because Xu Jie was my confidant brother, but also because I wanted the entire court and the whole world to know that in Xinming, no one would be abandoned.
Only by not giving up and not giving up, and only by uniting, can we achieve our brilliant achievements."
Faced with such a powerful and loud oath, what else did Zhao Zhenwu say?
He immediately instructed his subordinates: "Go to Daming Mansion and inform Mr. Xu Jie not to retreat for the time being, so that Ajige is in a dilemma. Tell him that our brothers from the Jinyiwei will sacrifice their lives and will also inform Ajige's situation at any time to ensure that he has plenty of time to withdraw."
Faced with this loyal subordinate and his arbitrarily changing his orders, Wang Xuejun did not refute.
Zhao Zhenwu sent another subordinate: "Immediately, fly back to Cao County, inform Mr. Li Yan, tell him the prince's decision, and let Mr. Li Yan take care of it."
Wang Xuejun did not object to this loyal subordinate who gave Li Yan arbitrarily.
Everything was arranged, and Wang Xuejun ordered camping on the spot, collecting the enemy's dead horses on the battlefield, and holding a grand bonfire party. Then everyone had a good sleep and recovered their strength.
Then he took them south to pursue Brock.
Are war criminals twisted? You chased me before, but now you don’t chased me anymore.
Well, I'll chase you now. Let's play.
"You made me lose five hundred heroes, and then you patted your butt and left? There was no door.
I am a very revengeful person. I want to chase your hometown and beat you. Brock, right? This time you are in trouble, and you are in trouble."
The bonfire was lit, and one dead horse after another was dragged over, peeled and cut the flesh for barbecue.
The commander of the guard also showed his hand and took out the skill of roasting camels he had learned in the African desert, and put a whole war horse on a bonfire. He wanted to roast the whole horse for his master, his friend Wang Xuejun.
Eating horse meat alone will damage the spleen and stomach.
Wang Xuejun ordered that he should bring out precious liquor and distribute it to these soldiers.
Although there is not much wine, it is enough to excite these Kunlun slaves.
The waist drums started to beat, the dance began to dance, and the primitive African singing began to sing.
Amid the dancing and singing of the waist drum, the daytime battle was completely forgotten, and the sorrow of the brother's death was abandoned.
Once again they became carefree hunters running and chasing their prey on the prairie.
"Dance and sing, tomorrow I will make you real hunters again, chasing the beasts that once hurt us."
