Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 169 Target Huaiqing

But the moment Feng Huzi walked out of the east gate, he was spotted by patrolling rangers.

"That Han man ran away on horseback, shoot him quickly." Several rangers found Feng Huzi's figure, and they judged Feng Huzi from Feng Huzi's hairstyle and beard.

As soon as he finished speaking, several rangers bent their bows and shot arrows at the position where Feng Huzi was just now. When they saw that they missed Feng Huzi, they patted their horses and chased after him.

In order to escape from birth as soon as possible, Feng Huzi desperately urged the horse under his crotch to run, and at the same time lowered his body to avoid being shot by the bow and arrow.

But after all, there are several Eight Banners vests who are skilled in bowing and horses chasing after him, and it is too difficult to leave intact.

Although Feng Huzi tried his best to lower his body, he still couldn't avoid being hit by an arrow. A ranger hit him in the left shoulder with an arrow, and Feng Huzi's left hand suddenly lost strength.

Fortunately, he was riding a horse, so he didn't need to exercise vigorously, and he didn't need to exert any strength with his hands.

Seeing that Feng Huzi was hit by an arrow and seeing that he was not wearing armor, the rangers thought he would not live long, so they didn't bother to care about him. After all, there were countless spoils of war in Xiuwu City waiting for them to share.

So Feng Huzi was able to lie on the horse like this, bumping all the way east, and he could barely maintain his consciousness. A few days ago, he heard that the emperor was stationed in Kaifeng, so he wanted to go east. The only way to find the emperor was to let the court send out an army , to avenge his hometown.

After an unknown amount of time, the bewildered Feng Huzi came to the boundary of Fengqiu County. Because he was riding a horse, the target was relatively large, so he was soon discovered by the standard-bearer guards and sentries patrolling the boundary of Fengqiu County.

"Chief flag officer, you see a large black mass in front of you, what is that?" a small flag officer asked his superior.

"Let's go and have a look." The Chief Banner Officer is Xu Ruogu. After he joined Zhu Cilang's banner guard from Jinling, he was directly awarded the official position of the General Banner because of his reputation as a scholar.

Soon, Xu Ruogu and his soldiers came to Feng Huzi's side. Several soldiers saw Feng Huzi fainted on horseback, so they hurriedly carried him down to show Xu Ruogu.

Seeing this person's face, Xu Ruogu was taken aback, thinking, isn't this Brother Feng? Why did he appear here with injuries on his body.

"Since this person has fainted, let's take him back first, and ask him why he is here after heals his injuries." Xu Ruogu worried that Feng Huzi's injuries would be life-threatening if he was not treated in time, so he hurried Order the soldiers to take the man back for treatment.

In total, he has served in the army for two months since Jinling. Thanks to the manual distributed by Zhu Cihong to the officers, he knows some common military knowledge and how fatal arrow wounds are, especially for For those without armor.

So Feng Huzi was brought to the barracks of the Banner Guard in such a daze, and Xu Ruogu specially took him to his room in order to take care of him.

As a commander of fifty people, Xu Ruogu has a small room of his own, so he doesn't need to be crowded with the big soldiers.

If he can be promoted to a hundred households, the room will be even bigger. It is not too much to say that one room and one living room are not too much. If he is promoted to a thousand households, even if he wants to live in a small courtyard, he can be built by the peasants and auxiliary soldiers on the spot. one building.

Soon, the doctor in the army invited over, first pulled out the arrowhead for Feng Huzi, then applied golden sore medicine, in order to recuperate his body, and finally prescribed a three-day decoction.

If he went to an ordinary medical clinic, Xu Ruogu would have to spend a few taels of silver just for this trip, but in the army, the imperial court doctors were used to prescribe the imperial court's decoction, so Xu Ruogu didn't have to spend a single penny.

After the doctor left, Xu Ruogu personally cooked soup and medicine for Feng Huzi to drink. Feng Huzi didn't wake up until dusk.

"Water, water." Feng Huzi, who had just woken up, couldn't see the face in front of him clearly, and just relied on his instinct to beg for water.

"Here it is, drink slowly." Hearing that Feng Huzi asked for water, Xu Ruogu quickly brought him a bowl of water to drink.

After drinking this bowl of water, Feng Huzi was like a crop that had been experiencing drought for a long time and regained its vitality in an instant.

"Brother Xu, why is it you?" Feng Huzi regained his sight and finally saw the face in front of him clearly.

However, Xu Ruogu's appearance shocked him very much. To be honest, since Jin Ling said goodbye, he had already prepared for the two of them not to see each other for the rest of their lives.

The roads in ancient times were difficult, and the imperial court was too lazy to repair official roads. The world is so big that there is no way of public transportation. If two people want to meet each other, they have to travel hundreds of miles and walk for days and nights.

This cost was too high for ordinary ancients, so few people would do it, even if they were visiting relatives.

"When I led people to patrol the fields, I found you lying on horseback, so I brought you back, and even asked a doctor to bandage and treat you." Xu Ruogu replied.

"Where is this place?" Feng Huzi asked again.

"The barracks outside Fengqiu County, I'm an officer in the Banner Guard. This is my room."

Hearing Xu Ruogu's answer, Feng Huzi jumped up excitedly, he held Xu Ruogu's arms tightly and said, "Great, it seems that I came to the right place."

Feng Huzi's goal was to find the emperor and inform him of the tragedy in Xiuwu County. He didn't expect that he would arrive at the military camp of the emperor's troops while lying on his back in a daze. What a coincidence.

"What's so great, I don't understand what you're saying." Xu Ruogu didn't understand why Feng Huzi was so excited, and he didn't seem to say anything confidential or interesting.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you right now." Seeing Xu Ruogu with a puzzled face, Feng Huzi advised him not to worry.

In fact, these words were not only addressed to Xu Ruogu, but also to Feng Huzi. It was only one step away from the emperor sending troops to avenge the people of Xiuwu County. How could one not be excited.

"Haoge gathered an army of tens of thousands, surrounded Xiuwu County, killed the county magistrate, and broke through the city. They killed people everywhere in the city, robbed and set fire everywhere. When I left the city, I saw dead bodies on both sides of the road. "

"After I left the city, I looked back and saw that there were beacon smoke all over the city and outside the city. I don't know how many buildings were burned down by the Tartars."

"At that time, I wanted to gather dozens of brothers in the city to resist and defend our hometown and fellow villagers, but I didn't expect that we couldn't even break through the heavy armor of the Tartar cavalry, and my brothers would die if we charged down. Seven seven eight eight."

Feng Huzi said excitedly, his tone of voice had a tinge of sadness, as if he was mourning the destruction of his hometown by massacres.
