The leader who knelt down was the same family that Feng Dehua had visited before. They were able to survive and their great revenge was avenged. Moreover, they were evacuated for their own sake. They were grateful for the repayment. It was just kneeling to express their gratitude. It felt like it was not enough to express gratitude!

Feng Dehua was also happy when he saw it. After all, he was not a saint, and he also enjoyed the feeling of being grateful. Under such circumstances, he became more amiable, smiled and gestured with his hands: "Come on, come on, everyone, get up! Our family is just doing things according to the emperor's orders! You go first, don't worry, the emperor is strategizing, now The battle will be won!”

After hearing this, the people all thought that the emperor was wise, and then they got up and got into the car, escorted by navy officers and soldiers and left.

Once these people left, only the new army would be left in Gaizhou City. The order was passed and the army was prepared for war.

Outside Haizhou City, Brother Sun and others were resting on a high ground. Suddenly, Ye Bushou, who was in charge of the lookout, said hurriedly: "Brother Sun, there seems to be a cavalry coming from a distance, it's probably Jianlu's spying horse!"

They are all elites selected from the frontier army. These soldiers who can become the new army's soldiers at night are naturally the elite of the army. Ever since there was movement such as dust in the distance, I immediately made a judgment.

When the short brother Sun heard this, he immediately stood up and smelled the sound. Sure enough, in just a moment, a large group of cavalry was seen coming from the end of the line of sight. There was no doubt that they were Jianlu's scouting horses.

When Brother Sun saw it, he didn't hesitate and immediately ordered everyone to mount their horses, and then conducted observation on the horses.

After waiting for a while, it became clearer and clearer. Sure enough, it was Jianlu Tanma, about thirty of them. After seeing it clearly, Brother Sun immediately turned the horse's head and ordered: "It's been two days, the Jianlu reinforcements should have arrived. Looking at the scale of the exploration horse, reinforcements must have arrived. Let's go, we should go back and pay the order. Got it!"

Their departure obviously attracted Jianlu Tanma's attention. However, they were all experienced, and they knew at first glance that they would not be able to catch up. The thirty or so cavalry were divided into three waves, dispersed, and continued to explore the surrounding situation. The remaining two or three cavalry came towards Haizhou City.

The Jianlu who were waiting at the top of Haizhou City cheered when they saw their own horses approaching. A big stone in my heart also fell to the ground.

Tan Ma just asked some questions at the foot of the city, and then a horse galloped away in the direction he came from. The others continued to explore the military situation.

In the evening, Jierhalang's army arrived. The Haizhou garrison rushed out to greet them, but what they received was only Jierhalang's cold face.

Seeing his cavalry troops marching into Haizhou City in a steady stream, Jierhalang sneered coldly: "Thankfully you are still an old man of the Qing Dynasty, but you were so frightened that you were locked up behind closed doors after more than ten cavalry troops from the Ming Military Region refused to accept them. Come out. I don’t know how many troops the Ming army has, which Ming army it is, where the main force is now, or who the main general is! Haha, you are really good!"

After saying that, he left him directly and drove his horse into the city. The Haizhou guard broke out in sweat after hearing this, and looked at Jierhalang's back. While he was slightly ashamed, he also felt very aggrieved.

If he had not been cautious, he would have been lured out of the city by Governor Denglai long ago. At that time, Haizhou would probably have been lost like the Liaoyang and Anshan posthouses. This time I was indeed a little softer on the Ming army, but it was different in that I defended Haizhou. If they go to war, who knows how many people will come from the Ming army this time? What if they lose Haizhou? No matter what, I didn't lose any city or territory after all!

In the lobby of Haizhou Yamen, Jierhalang did not rest, and did not care about the weather. He immediately held a military meeting. Looking at the generals below, his voice was cold and he shouted with a stern look: "My country is the Qing Dynasty. , was captured from the hands of the Ming Dynasty, not defended! The two armies faced each other, and they had no idea what the enemy was like. How could such a war be won? Where have the mighty troops of the Qing Dynasty gone? Nowadays, Since the war is being led by Ben Beile, if anyone dares to fear the enemy and refuses to fight, Ben Beile doesn’t care which flag you belong to, military law is ruthless and will be killed without mercy!”

Among the eight Baylors of Jianlu, Jierhalang is the one with the best temper, relatively speaking. But this time he was really angry. It was a bit embarrassing for the war to end like this. More importantly, he smelled some very bad signs.

The Qing army had a great psychological advantage when it faced the Ming army in the past. Even if there are only a few people, they dare to rush forward and fight dozens of Ming troops, and they can often win!

But at this time, he felt that this psychological advantage seemed to be disappearing among the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, especially the local generals. Facing the Ming army, it is no longer about marching forward bravely, but about not seeking merit but seeking no faults! If this continues for a long time, he can predict that the Qing Dynasty will fall!

After all, the Qing Dynasty did not have many advantages against the Ming Dynasty. One of the biggest advantages is its invincible past record, high morale and fearless style.

Hearing that the "good old man" became angry, all the Jianlu generals standing in the hall did not dare to neglect. They marched out together, knelt down and responded loudly: "Cha!"

These are indeed the elite of the Jianlu, but when Jierhalang said this, their fighting spirit was ignited. The strong desire to fight showed immediately.

Seeing this situation, Ji Erhalang nodded slightly in his heart, and he immediately said: "Ben Beile must know all the circumstances of the invading Ming army before the army is assembled in Haizhou. All the ministries and scouts were sent out overnight by Ben Beile. If the Ming army refuses to retreat at night and either kills or captures them, they cannot retreat. Even if the entire team of exploration horses is wiped out, the Ming army will be deafened and their eyes gouged out! Let them huddle in Gaizhou City at most and become me Fish and meat of the Qing Dynasty! We must let the Ming army remember that the wilderness of Liaodong belongs to our Qing Dynasty, and only our Qing army can move sideways!"

"Cha!" There was another loud and resounding reply, sonorous and powerful!

So, the city gate that had been closed because it was getting late in the evening opened again, and groups of sturdy Jianlu scout horses galloped out and scattered in all directions. Like a big net, it spreads across the land of Liaodong with Gaizhou as the center.

This method of fighting the enemy is the most commonly used method by Jianlu and the method they are most familiar with. Generally speaking, it is also one of the methods that must be adopted to achieve victory on the battlefield.

However, the Battle of Gaizhou is a bit special. From the beginning, the Ming army set a policy of defending the city. As for what happens outside the city, it is up to you. Therefore, a large amount of manpower and material resources were used to build the captives and explore the horses, but in the end they did not encounter any Ming army that refused to accept them at night. It was like a heavy punch, but the Ming army did not respond, leaving them empty-handed. But from this, Jianlu also understood that the Ming army was huddled in Gaizhou City!
