Chapter 27 Three Brothers, Enemy Attack

"Third Prince, it's almost dawn. Are you resting in front of you?"

The person who spoke was the Archangel of the White Flag, Lazhang Jingcheerge, his father was Eyidu, one of the four ministers, and his mother was Nurhaci's third sister, so he and Abai were cousins.

Abai looked around. Although he was anxious, he knew that the soldiers of the marching overnight were already very tired, so he agreed to Cherge's request.

"Send someone to tell Xiao Shisan, telling him not to slack off and beware of the Ming people's sneak attacks."

"I understand, the third prince."

Cherge nodded and agreed to beat the horse and ran towards the front.

"Xiao Shisan" is Cherge's younger brother Chao Haer. Although he is only seventeen years old this year, his uncle Nurhaci likes this nephew very much, so he kept it by his side since he was a child. When he was fifteen, he taught Niu Luezhen, the youngest Niu Luezhen in the Eight Banners.

However, Cherge didn't like this younger brother very much. His favorite was his younger brother Ebilon. That little guy was very smart. Ama often said that the most promising person in the family would be Ebilon in the future.

Chao Haer is now leading people to explore the way forward. The road under his feet was built by the Ming army decades ago. It is now dilapidated and the road is basically covered with weeds. Many areas have been dug and destroyed by the Ming army. Therefore, Chao Haer and the others are very careful all the way, for fear of being anxious, losing their horse's hooves and hurting their horses.

For cavalry, war horses are their lives.

This time, the entire army of the Inlaid White Banner was dispatched. Although there was no Ming army in this area, Abai still scattered the horses for ten miles and divided them into several groups one after another, very cautious.

This has fully learned the lessons of the failure of the Zhengbai Banner Division. In this way, even if the Ming army really appears, the Inlaid White Banner can react quickly and use the main force to annihilate the Ming army.

...........

"Be careful!"

A broken ditch in front forced Chao Hal to jump off the horse, and told his subordinates to take a good time to rest in front, and then walked towards the Anping River on the side of the road. His water bag was gone.

Those who were used as horse-snooping horses were all elite soldiers, and their physical strength was much better than the rest of the soldiers, but they were exhausted after exploring overnight. Therefore, after they passed, they scattered the horses by the river, leaning against the trees, sitting on the grass, taking out food and water and swallowing in big mouthfuls.

After filling the riverside with water, Chaohaer held the water in his hands and applied it to his face. It suddenly became cool and the feeling of fatigue was swept away. At this time, the east was already showing white white, and the sun should have come out in less than half an hour.

After breathing, Chaohaer walked back to the roadside and was about to send someone to tell the third prince and the others that there was nothing wrong, but suddenly he heard several war horses drinking water on the riverside suddenly neighing. He turned his head in surprise and was shocked when he looked.

There was actually someone hiding in the weeds by the riverside. Not only were they hiding, but those people were also attacking the soldiers who released their horses.

"Someone robs the horse!"

Chao Hal screamed, but suddenly something sprayed with Mars popped out from somewhere and threw it at his feet.

What?

When something happened suddenly, Chao Hal just stared blankly, his mouth opened. Before he could say anything, he heard a "boom" explosion, and countless iron nails broke through the air and flew straight from the dark thing!

With a "puff" sound, an iron nail passed through a Jin soldier's neck. His throat was about to shout and turned into blood and shot out from both ends.

The injured Jin soldier subconsciously raised his hand to hold the wound, but the blood could not be stopped. He could only squat on the ground with his neck in vain, but he saw blood spraying from his neck, making a "hissing" sound.

"Enemy attack!"

Chao Hal reacted, shouting, and rushing out the horn from his waist and blew it to the sky.

The sound of trumpets sounded, and the Jin soldiers behind were all alarmed. They were on the horses, and they were pulling their swords and bows on the horses, and they all rushed forward.

"Why are the trumpet blowing, there will be an enemy attack!"

A flash of light flashed in Cherge's eyes, and he suddenly slammed his throne and suddenly the horn sounded.

"Enemy attack!"

The Jin army brigade, who heard the sound of trumpets, rolled up like a ground dragon from front to back, and the sound of armor and weapons colliding filled the entire road.

The low-level officers kept shouting back and forth, while the senior officers drove to the big banner where the flag owner was.

.........

The cavalry brigade led by Wei Xuewen to attack the explorer of the Yingbai Banner. After learning from the location of the Yingbai Banner from the Tanma Bayin who had been sent out earlier, Wei Xuewen asked Xiao Bozhi to order the troops to lead the troops to rush to the place where the Jin army must pass in advance to the south, and caught him off guard when he wanted to attack the Yingbai Banner.

Although this battle was to lure the enemy, if Xiao Bozhi could hammer them first without any defense, he would be happy, so he agreed to Wei Xuewen's request for battle and ordered him to lead his troops to go north immediately.

Unfortunately, the Jin army was very vigilant. The probation of horses was carried out in the front and back, which not only prevented the Wei Xuewen Department from attacking, but also had the danger of being exposed.

As the sky was about to dawn, after weighing the pros and cons, Wei Xuewen gave up his plan to attack the main force of the Inlaid White Banner and instead ordered the attack on the Jin army to attack and attack the Jin army to explore the horse.

Faced with the sudden appearance of Ming cavalry, the Jin army's provocation did not retreat to the rear after a brief panic, because they knew that once they retreated, the Ming cavalry would inevitably follow them into the main force that had not yet been prepared, so they resisted bravely, intending to buy time for the rear brigade.

Chao Hal was also very lucky. Seven or eight soldiers around him were shot by the Ming army's firearms, but he was fine. After panic, Chao Hal snatched a war horse and broke out. In the unknown wilderness in his sight, Ming army would occasionally appear.

"kill!"

Wei Xuewen rushed to the front with his horse, opened his eyes wide, jumped out, and cut off the head of a Jin soldier whose abdomen was shot by an iron nail in the mine with one knife.

"kill!"

Hundreds of Ming soldiers untied the cloth strips strangled on the mouth of the horsemen, and rushed out from their hiding place, shouting and killing were earth-shaking.

"Master, there is an ambush!"

"The Third Prince, it's Ming Jun!"

“…”

It was not yet dawn, and it was only a few dozen feet away. There was still a black light in the distance. There were countless Ming troops coming from the Jin army, but when they heard the shouts of killing the sky in front, they were all alarmed.

Abai and the generals of the white flag stood on the horse, looking at the shouts of killing in front of them, everyone looked solemn.

"Xiao Shisan will not be in trouble, right?" Abai murmured.

"Third Brother, I'll go and pick up Xiao Shisan!" Cherge was also worried about his brother's safety, so he swung his horse whip and led his horse to rush over.

At the ambush, the Ming army did not achieve much results.

Part of the horses that were protruding in the white flag were the Red Armored Flyayala personal soldiers of the banner owner Abai. Many of them were veterans in their forties, all of whom were strong men. Each of them had a bow in their hands and three or four bags of arrows hung on both sides of the saddle. Faced with the sudden attack of the Ming army, these fierce and cunning veterans quickly stabilized their positions after panic, which made the Ming army not have much advantage.

After all, the roads and wilderness here have been raining, which certainly makes the Jin soldiers unable to move, but it also restricts the Ming army.

Many Ming soldiers rushed out to kill Jin soldiers and had to slow down their horses because the road was difficult to move, and some were even forced to dismount. In this way, the killing of Jin soldiers to explore horses was limited.

"withdraw!"
