Chapter 240 Fighting in a narrow road

That Mulan practiced the durian sword technique, which was mostly a group-killing skill. She used Qinggong to stab the Qing soldiers in the east and west like a butterfly piercing flowers, killing them so that the Qing soldiers fled. .

The Qing soldiers were originally in a tight formation, allowing the Ming army to charge in front, but they shot Chen Jiagui and others from a distance, which was originally very effective. They did not want Yang Shucheng and his two men to rush east and west to kill for a while, and the formation was soon disrupted.

When the Qing general saw that the two men had disrupted their position, they wanted to charge towards him.

He hurriedly directed the Qing troops not to shoot randomly to avoid accidentally killing his own people, but to surround and kill the two men in the center.

In this way, Yang Shucheng and the two attracted Qing soldiers to their side. Chen Jiagui immediately reduced the pressure, allowing them to focus on dealing with the Ming soldiers.

However, the Ming army had no fighting capacity. Seeing that the Qing soldiers no longer helped them, they panicked and fled in all directions. Chen Jiagui seized the opportunity and hurriedly commanded his men to kill the Ming soldiers.

For a while, it was like chopping melons and vegetables, killing Ming soldiers fleeing in all directions, with Chen Jiagui chasing after them.

Ming Bing wished he had two more legs and quickly ran away.

When Chen Jiagui saw that he had defeated the Ming army, he immediately took advantage of his victory and attacked the Qing army.

But the Qing troops were extremely powerful in fighting. They came from outside the customs, relying on their own bravery and strict discipline. No one dared to retreat. They were not afraid of death and wanted to fight to the death with Chen Jiagui and others.

For a while, the two sides were fighting inextricably.

Yang Shucheng and several masters from Chen Jiagui charged at the Qing soldiers respectively, and immediately killed the Qing soldiers to pieces.

But the Qing soldiers were also difficult to deal with, and they were fighting to the death. The outcome of the battle was difficult to predict for a while. Of course, there were casualties among the Qing soldiers, and many people on Chen Jiagui's side also fell to the ground.

The soldiers who fell to the ground were howling in the valley, and the sounds of misery were endless. Yang Shucheng couldn't bear it when he saw the brutal killing between the two sides, and decided to capture the thieves first and capture the king first. Only by forcing the Qing generals to retreat can the battle be ended.

He looked around and saw that the Qing general was standing not far away. He used Qinggong and rushed away like a whirlwind.

At this time, although the Qing soldiers were wielding long swords and slashing at Yang Shucheng, Yang Shucheng fought with the Qing soldiers several times. He avoided the real and hit the weak, and rushed towards the Qing generals through the gaps.

When the Mulan girl saw Yang Shucheng rushing into the encirclement, she also used the unique skill of the pomegranate sword technique. She split into several pomegranate flowers with one sword and stabbed the Qing soldier in the throat.

The soldiers of the Qing Dynasty had never seen this kind of sword technique, and they all avoided it. In fact, they didn't know that these sword flowers were all false moves.

When Yang Shucheng was about to rush to the Qing generals, several soldiers rushed over and waved their swords, protecting their generals like a ray of sword light. Yang Shucheng couldn't rush forward for a while.

At this time, a flute sound was suddenly heard.

Yang Shucheng suddenly heard it and felt happy.

This is the arrival of Mr. Yudi, Xiong Songlin.

Yang Shuguo stepped back and walked around to another place. He opened his eyes and looked far away on the mountain road in the north. On the mountain road in the far north, a young man came on horseback holding a flute. It was Xiong Songlin.

Yang Shucheng's ambition increased greatly, and he charged at the Qing soldiers who were surrounding them. He used the "Jingwei Filling the Sea" move, swung his long sword, and immediately struck at the opponent with dozens of sword points flashing on the tip of the sword. The ones who escaped slower were immediately stabbed and fell to the ground. The others who escaped faster retreated far away and did not dare to come over.

At this time, Xiong Songlin rode his horse and rushed to the front of the battle. Of course he knew who was the enemy and who was on his side.

He was riding on a horse, waving his flute and stabbing the Qing soldier in the throat.

Those Qing soldiers saw that he was holding a jade flute that could also be used as a weapon, and deliberately ignored him. However, their eyes were blurred, and their throat hurt, and they were injured and fell to the ground. This was worse than suffering from pain. The sword was even more powerful. He fell to the ground and died without a single struggle.

The Qing general saw a more powerful one coming, and knew that he was defeated today and that if he continued to fight, his side would suffer more deaths. At this time, he finally became smart and issued an order to direct his soldiers to flee north.

Only then did Yang Shucheng meet Xiong Songlin. When asked why he came here, didn't he listen to Huang Xianfu's words and return to Handan to protect his family?

Xiong Songlin said: "The north has become the territory of the Qing soldiers. They are burning, killing and looting everywhere. Every village has turned into a bare land. There is no one inhabited for thousands of miles. I have no choice but to take my family to the south to escape the disaster."

As he spoke, he pointed with his hand, and there were more than a dozen cars parked on the mountain road, surrounded by dozens of family members.

Those Qing soldiers passed by. According to their usual behavior, these vehicles containing treasures and property must be the targets of their robbery. But today, it was important to escape for their lives, so they all ran away from the vehicles.

At this time, Chen Jiagui also knew that it was the three of them who saved him. After seeing them finish speaking, he hurriedly came over to thank the three of them.

Xiong Songlin, dressed in white and handsome, said: "No need to thank us. We are all civilians. We are being hunted by the Qing soldiers. Naturally, we must unite as one to deal with foreign enemies. I also heard that Chen Zhai mainly attacked several counties. , the power is not small, how come it was defeated by the Qing soldiers?"

Chen Jiagui said: "My power is not small, but these Qing soldiers are all fierce. We lost a lot and it was difficult to gain a foothold. We had to flee deep into the Dabie Mountains. We were ambushed by them today and almost wiped out the entire army."

Xiong Songlin said: "The Qing soldiers came from outside the pass and defeated the Dashun Army. Now they are divided into two groups, chasing the rest of the Dashun Army all the way, and one group is heading straight towards Nanjing. I think the situation is not good."

Yang Shucheng took the opportunity and said: "Emperor Dashun was ambushed by the Qing army during a patrol with only a dozen soldiers. They were killed. Now the remaining troops have retreated to Hunan. Now the Qing soldiers are taking advantage of the victory to pursue them. They have been killed all the way. I don’t know what the situation will be like when I get to Hunan.”

In his heroic life, Li Zicheng fought in the east and west, killing Emperor Chongzhen until he hanged himself. Unexpectedly, he would end up like this. Xiong Songlin couldn't help but feel sorry for him, and asked again: "What about the Eastern Route Army?"

Yang Shucheng said: "I came from Nanjing. Three lines of Nanjing's Jianghuai defense line have surrendered. Only one line, Huang Degong, is still guarding the Yangtze River and has not yet surrendered."

Xiong Songlin said: "That's good."

Yang Shucheng sighed: "Now in Nanjing City, Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng are already ready to escape. I think Nanjing City will not be able to defend it sooner or later."

In fact, when they said this, the city of Nanjing had been lost, and Emperor Hongguang had been captured by Qing soldiers in Huang Degong's camp. Huang Degong refused to surrender and was shot to death by a cold arrow.

Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng had already escaped and disappeared.

The three of them sighed for a while. Xiong Songlin said to Chen Jiagui: "Now the world is in chaos, and we still don't know who will win? What is General Chen going to do?"

Chen Jiagui said: "We can no longer stay in Henan. Now the whole of Henan is the territory of the Qing Dynasty. I am going to find a dangerous place in the Dabie Mountains to continue to fight against the Qing Dynasty."

Xiong Songlin said: "General Chen, you are really a man, we really admire him."

Chen Jiagui said: "I won't say thank you for your kindness. Let's go now. If you can use me in the future, let me know. I will go into water or fire. I, Chen, will never frown."

Xiong Songlin said: "We are all citizens of the Ming Dynasty. General Chen, please don't be polite."

Chen Jiagui hugged Yang Shucheng and Miss Mulan, who was standing far away, and said to Miss Mulan:

"About your father..."

Mulan said: "My godfather also has bad things. Don't mention the past anymore. General Chen is doing things for the country and the people. He is a great hero in the world. My little girl can also distinguish right from wrong."

"That's good..." Chen Jiagui was quite pleased to see her say these words.

He raised his hands to the three of them and said, "Goodbye."

Leading their own team, they supported each other with the injured, buried the dead, and left slowly.

Later, they found a dangerous place in the Dabie Mountains in Anhui and set up camp. They held on to the danger and persisted in resisting the Qing Dynasty for forty years. This dangerous place is still there, and there are still some ruins, and it is called "Tiantian Village".
