Chapter 920

This group of Mongolian cavalry, without hesitation, used their bows, arrows and muskets to shoot and kill the bodyguards around Zhou yanru. They knew that these bodyguards were worthless. If they killed them, they would kill them. The valuable one was Zhou yanru in red robes.

Zhou yanru was very afraid. He was holding a knife in his hand. He was thinking that I was the chief assistant of the cabinet of the great Ming Dynasty. I was a top scholar. How noble I was. I must not fall into the hands of the enemy, otherwise it would become a shame of eternal life. Therefore, he decided that I could not escape from heaven, so I committed suicide and serve the country.

Zhou yanru also knows that, in his capacity, if he is defeated and dies and escapes back to the capital, he is afraid that he will become a laughing stock in the world. Moreover, if he is defeated and dies at this time, if he falls into the hands of villains such as Xu Jianqiang, he doesn't know how humiliating he will be. Instead, he might as well die on the battlefield and win the name behind him.

Thinking of these things, Zhou yanru didn't hesitate. He straightened his clothes and said loudly, "this is Zhou yanru, the chief assistant of the Ming cabinet. You are ordered to go out to resist the enemy. You can't be rude. This seat will punish yourself and apologize."

His original intention is to say his identity, reprimand the other party in righteous words, and then commit suicide in public. It is also the death method of a hero.

What he feared most was that the other party didn't know who he was. Just like dealing with these ordinary soldiers, he cut off his head with a knife and took his head to receive a reward. When he died, he didn't know that his head belonged to Zhou yanru. He would be like thousands of people. He would become a corpse abandoned in the wild, unknown and like soil.

Who knows, when he was nagging, Bartel saw the opportunity to come forward, waved his harness pole, and immediately put it on Zhou yanru's neck. Then he rode forward, dragged him to the ground, and caught him alive.

Bartel's gloves and horse pole hit every man and horse, and the soldiers cheered in unison.

Zhou yanru was very smart and wanted to commit suicide. But Bartel and others knew that the other party was a person of high status. If they caught him, they would not let such a fat sheep escape.

Zhou yanru unexpectedly let these soldiers be captured alive. In the dark, the soldiers were in a mess and scrambled for their lives. No one noticed this.

Bartel is a group of people. They are full of courage and ambition. They want to kill each other. Even if they don't kill them, they have to drive them like sheep. Who knows that they actually caught such a big fat sheep. This is a miracle. What they have to do is not to hunt down the enemy, but to send their fat sheep to the leader. This is a great credit.

So after batel succeeded, he ordered his men not to pursue, but to fight and retreat.

At this time, it was almost dawn. The soldiers of the Ming army were suddenly attacked by the enemy and were beaten beyond their tentacles. In the dark, everyone scrambled for their lives. The whole army collapsed at once. They ran for their lives along the official path.

Who knows that soon the enemy will no longer pursue, and the enemy will no longer pursue. These talents relax and rest on the official road. As soon as they stop, they find that it is dawn and there are not many enemies at all. Finally, on this investigation, they find that the enemy is no more than a hundred people.

This made this group of soldiers feel ashamed and uneasy, and they lost their face. They must go to God and count the number. Only then did they find something more amazing. When they set out, they had tens of thousands of people. These people were boundless. So many people gathered together, which gave them some courage.

Who knows that after being attacked by the enemy, their manpower was actually less than 5000. With such an attack, the enemy killed and disrupted nearly 5000 people?

And even more humiliating things happened, that is, in the dark, when they were attacked by the enemy, everyone rushed for their lives, and no one took into account their commander Zhou yanru. Now when everyone escaped from Shengtian and began to look for the commander, they found that their commander, Zhou yanru, had disappeared.

At this time, a soldier said, "I just saw that Zhou Ge was always captured alive by the cavalry of the Chinese thieves."

Such news spread, but the soldiers of the Ming army were stunned.

Such absurd things can happen. An army of ten thousand people is beaten by hundreds of cavalry of the enemy, and even the commander is lost.

According to the military regulations of the Ming army, those who escape and lose the commander should be beheaded.

If such news is spread back, it is estimated that their faces will be lost to the extreme.

There are more than 200 people in the Ming Dynasty. The emperor was captured by the enemy, but I have never heard of it. The head of the cabinet asked people to be captured alive?

The army of tens of thousands of people was defeated by hundreds of other people. What's worse, even the commander-in-chief was lost. These soldiers were very frightened. What should we do? Even if I go back, I'm afraid I'll die.

Such a scene made these soldiers sad. The dilemma in front of them was that one step forward was death and one step backward was death. They thought about it and simply threw away their weapons, took off their uniforms and fled home.

As a result, the 10000 strong army led by Zhou yanru, which was highly expected by the imperial court and delayed for them, was just in contact with the enemy. Before a battle, it collapsed and collapsed.

You should know that even such a force is the largest mobile force that can be drawn out of the capital.

It is their greatest ability to gather up this army. Although this army is rubbish and useless, their background is quite large.

Either the three major battalions in the capital or the twelve regiment battalions are elite troops known all over the world. They have won countless battles, but today they have lost face.

These soldiers also know that when they return to the capital, they are afraid that they will die. First, they will be punished by the military law. Even if the Chinese Army besieges the city, they will also be asked to fight, and they will die.

So many people threw away their weapons and took off their military uniforms. Instead of fleeing to places, they fled to the countryside outside the capital.

Although they are soldiers and live in the city, many people still live in the countryside or have relatives. Let's go to relatives first and avoid the limelight.

This is beizhidi, but near the capital, which is the most prosperous place in Daming. In addition, it is also an official road. People usually come and go. Now it is during the war, but many people are forced to make a living and helpless. There are many people, including business trips and people fleeing.

They soon found that this army, which was highly expected by the imperial court, was defeated and defeated by the enemy so easily. They were really stunned.

What surprised them even more was that they heard that this army was led by the head of the cabinet and led by the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty, the army of the Third Battalion and the 12th regiment battalion, to resist the enemy.

As a result, the army of tens of thousands of people was attacked by more than 100 cavalry of the other party, and was defeated. Even the head and auxiliary were captured by the enemy. Many people and businessmen were frightened.

There are many people among them. When they heard that the Chinese army was coming, they were so scared that they were ready to hide in the capital.

Since its establishment, Beijing has been the largest city in the North China Plain. After more than 200 years of ups and downs, countless enemies have attacked it, and no one can capture it.

Therefore, these people have an idea that when there is a war, hiding in the city is the best way.

They also believed in this, because there was Daming and they had confidence in the Ming court. Who knows, this scene actually happened in front of them. Many people decided not to go on their way or run into the capital.

Some people said, "in fact, we don't have to escape. The Liu family army rebelled and plotted to usurp the throne. They want the throne and kill officials. For us people, we still want it. As long as we are willing to be the obedient people of the Chinese army, they will still accept us and won't kill innocent people indiscriminately."

In these troubled times, there are several things that are recognized, that is, the Ming army is corrupt and can not fight. The second is that the Chinese army has strict military discipline and will not embezzle military salaries and indiscriminately kill innocent people.

Many people originally wanted to travel to the capital in order to get a place to live in this troubled times, but now they find that the backstage and backer they tried to take refuge in are not reliable at all. It's hard to say whether they will be regarded by the Chinese army as Zhu Ming's loyal and eradicated when they enter the city.

After seeing such a scene, these people decided not to go to the capital, but to escape home or make a living by themselves.

Of course, this scene is also related to the spies of the National Security Bureau. Since the Chinese army landed from Tianjin Wei, Zhou Hui also came here in person to listen to Liu bu. At the same time, he also mobilized the dark piles and spies that his men can send out. They took to the streets to publicize the various policies of the Chinese army and spy on the enemy's military situation and assassinate the enemy's important generals, Take the opportunity to publicize various policies of the Chinese army, disrupt order and win the support of the people.

It's strange that they don't take the opportunity to make trouble in such a scene?

The army led by Zhou yanru was attacked by the Chinese army, and the whole army was destroyed. The news that Zhou yanru was captured alive by the Chinese thieves also quickly spread to the officers and soldiers guarding the city through the refugees and people on the road.

This makes the officers and soldiers guarding the city even more afraid. Originally, they don't have high hopes for Zhou yanru's army. What flowers can a scholar lead the army bring? I just hope he can delay for a few days and block the enemy for a few days. Now it's good that they can't even block the enemy. It's really rotten to the extreme. Besides the great shock of the army, many people make a living by themselves.
