Chapter 253 Julu Jiazhuang Lu Xiangsheng

"Supervisor, Wang Pu, the one who killed Qiandao, led the soldiers away!"

After a fierce battle for a day, both sides barely fought a draw. Lu Xiangsheng had not yet fallen asleep in his camp at night. General Hu Dawei and Yang Guozhu came in from outside in anger and reported from outside.

The counselor Yang Tinglin also followed the side in disheveled clothes. It was obviously awakened and pulled over when he was sleeping. Yang Tinglin spoke to the side:

"General Wang and the eunuch Gao of the army have an old friend. This time, they might have gone to the side of the Gao of the army."

The general Hu Dawei man in his forties, and was born in a military household in the Xuanfu for generations, was very clear about these military activities. At this time, he was so angry that his hair and beard were all open and he sweared:

"We follow the supervisor here to fight for life and death. There are some villains and treacherous ministers behind us. How to fight this battle, we will leave too."

The general Yang Guozhu on the side also nodded repeatedly. Lu Xiangsheng, who was standing in front of them, shook his head and spoke slowly:

"How to go? Is there any troops that can stop the Tartars in this way? Isn't the capital even more dangerous? Since Lu Xiangsheng was placed in this position by the Lord, he must fulfill his responsibilities. Everyone, this situation is so difficult today, and Lu is also in charge. Here I apologize to you first, just ask you to follow me and fight the Tartars to death!"

Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei looked at each other and sighed at each other. Lu Xiangsheng's prestige was extremely high. Since the other party said that, he could only follow him. Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei bowed and bowed back and said:

"Since Master Supervisor said so, he is determined to follow with all his strength."

After saying that, the two of them bowed and then walked out of the camp. The counselor Yang Tinglin sorted out his clothes and said hesitantly:

"Supervisor, once Wang Pu left, we had more than 5,000 soldiers here. The food and salary had been cut off for a few days. Some soldiers were hungry for two days, but the Tartars on the opposite side were crowded with powerful soldiers and sufficient salary. How could they fight?"

Lu Xiangsheng smiled at the top and said lightly:

"It's just that I can repay you with my kindness."

Yang Tinglin took a step forward and bowed deeply:

"Although the Supervisor is already a desperate situation, it is still not without vitality. If the Guanning army under Eunuch Gao can send troops to join, it may not be without vitality. In the least, it can force the Tartars to retreat and evacuate calmly."

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng didn't say anything, Yang Tinglin stepped forward anxiously and said:

"Supervisor, although Gao Qiqian is strongly advocating peace talks and is involved behind the scenes, he is the military soldiers of the court after all. At this time of life and death, he may take the overall situation into consideration."

Yang Tinglin was there looking at the expression of Lu Xiangsheng on the upper hand. The expression on Lu Xiangsheng's face changed, but he never made a sound. In front of him was the important part of life and death. Although he had the belief in fighting to the death, he wanted to hold it firmly. The counselor Yang Tinglin also understood, and he bowed and begged again:

"Give Xiaguan a horse and two entourages, Xiaguan is willing to go to Gao Eunuch's camp tonight for help."

The Qing army almost formed an encirclement outside, and it was extremely dangerous to go out of the camp overnight. When Yang Tinglin saw Lu Xiangsheng not making any sound, he said to himself:

"Since the adults allow it, the student will go by himself. There are parents in the Xiaguan's family. If there is any accident, please take care of the adults."

After saying that, he bowed deeply again, turned around and was about to go out. He heard Lu Xiangsheng sigh behind him and said:

"If there is an accident, my family will also ask you, Yang Tinglin."

After hearing this, Yang Tinglin laughed, and did not look back, but just said loudly:

"Sir, you and I are loyal to the country and fight against the Tartars to the death, but why are we going to have this situation today? I really don't know if we did something wrong or right. Students really don't understand!"

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head without answering. When Yang Tinglin walked out of the camp, he smiled bitterly and said to himself:

"I don't understand either!"

Yang Tinglin had a high status in this military camp, and it was easy to arrange horses and follow people. Three cavalrymen left the camp and ran wildly, but the Taurus cavalry on the opposite side did not send anyone to chase him. Wang Pu led thousands of soldiers to run away, let alone three people.

At dawn the next day, Lu Xiangsheng's entire military camp was awakened by the sound of drums. Lu Xiangsheng walked out of the camp with his weapons in armor, but found that almost all the officers and soldiers in the camp had come out. The drum sound was not heard in Lu Xiangsheng's camp, but in the Qing army camp opposite.

A personal guard has been staring at the military situation opposite and came over nervously to report:

"Master, the Tartars added another 3,000 troops last night."

Lu Xiangsheng nodded and looked at the officers and soldiers standing around in the military camp. The fatigue and hunger made these people look haggard and tired...

The camp was built in the plains, and the Qing army with superior forces could attack as long as they exert their strength. It was impossible to defend. Moreover, the veterans were tired, and even if they wanted to retreat, they could not.

Hu Dawei and Yang Guozhu both sent their personal soldiers to ask how to deal with it at this time. Although Lu Xiangsheng was determined to fight to the death, he still had a glimmer of hope for Yang Tinglin to invite reinforcements. However, it seemed that there was no hope. Yang Tinglin left the camp in the middle of the night and there was no news yet.

In this era, night battles in the dark are almost synonymous with suicide. Most of the malnourished soldiers have night blindness, and night battles are impossible unless they have to be done. This is also the reason why the Qing army did not take the initiative to attack the camp at night. Of course, judging from the current situation, the other party is already his own meal.

Did not wait for reinforcements for too long, Hu Dawei was on the left, Yang Guozhu was on the right, and Lu Xiangsheng was on the middle, and launched an attack on the Qing army in one go.

For the Qing army, who had been fighting with the Ming government army for many years, it was indeed rare for the Ming government army that dared to fight to the death like this. Although the Qing army was seeking war first, after the two sides started the war, the Qing army was beaten back step by step.

But this battlefield situation lasted very briefly. In just a short while, the Tartar soldiers stabilized their positions and surrounded them again.

Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and Sun Chuanting were strong among the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty and understood the abnormalities of martial arts. Especially Lu Xiangsheng, who was proficient in battlefield skills. When training and exercise on weekdays, he used more than 100 kilograms of big swords, and he was a tiger and a tiger. Lu Xiangsheng was 38 years old this year, and he was in his prime, and even his physical strength was extremely abundant.

The high-ranking civil servants are all commanders, commanding the generals below, and there are layers of guards from personal soldiers and teachers. They are usually commanded by observing formations hundreds of steps away. If you can do this, you can already get a brave evaluation.

But at this time, Lu Xiangsheng was holding a sword and shield and fell into the enemy formation, fighting bloody battles. Lu Xiangsheng was skilled and powerful, and when he fought with the Tartar soldiers, he had a great advantage. Soon after, more than a dozen people had been chopped down around him, which seemed to be passionate, but the minister who governed the world wanted to fight with the enemy soldiers with the sword and shield himself. This was really sad.

By this time, Lu Xiangsheng's personal soldiers and servants had been killed and scattered. It was entirely up to Lu Xiangsheng to support him. However, with such bravery, the Tartar soldiers were consciously or unintentionally avoiding him. Lu Xiangsheng had several minor injuries on his body, but it did not affect his actions.

Two soldiers opposite Lu Xiangsheng were stabbing fiercely with the spear in their hands. Lu Xiangsheng's shield touched a spear in a slanted, and the knife in his hand swung into the close proximity of the two people. The knife slashed down with force. The enemy soldier on the left immediately gushed blood and fell to the ground with his neck covering his head.

"Second brother!"

Another soldier shouted heart-wrenchingly, but this was Chinese with a straightforward word. Lu Xiangsheng was originally going to slash with one knife, but was shocked by the other party's words. After hesitation, his movements slowed down. The enemy jumped away quickly and was swept away by Lu Xiangsheng's shield and staggered.

Lu Xiangsheng did not have the next move, but shouted angrily:

"You are a Han, why do you do such a thing as forgetting your ancestors!"

Although the Qing army was also joined by Han people in the past, the real main force and most of the personnel were Jurchens. These barbarians have been outside the pass for a long time, unlike the Eight Banners children in later generations. They would not speak Chinese at all. Moreover, the Han people who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty were not trusted. It was not their turn to participate in this military operation of light cavalry plundering into the pass. When the Ming Dynasty's official army rarely encountered Han people when they fought with the Manchus.

Lu Xiangsheng's bloody battle was to defend the Ming Dynasty. The Chinese Taoist throne could not be occupied by barbarians, but he actually met a Han man in the desperate battle, which was really unacceptable.

The staggering Qing soldier was furious when he heard Lu Xiangsheng say this, and shouted as if he was embarrassed and rushed up to fight again:

"Grandpa is not a Han Gou, he has already raised the flag, he is a bannerman!"

There was no hesitation or panic on the battlefield. Lu Xiangsheng blocked the opponent's attack and stabbed into the opponent's abdomen with one knife, but his back was completely exposed. All three spears stabbed him. Lu Xiangsheng's whole body stiffened and wanted to turn around, but his strength disappeared bit by bit.

As soon as the spear was twitching, blood gushed, and Lu Xiangsheng fell to the ground with a bang. He was muttering a few words, but no one could hear them.

"Why are there Han people..."

On December 12, the 12th day of the 12th year of Chongzhen, Governor Xuanda, Minister of War, and Governor Lu Xiangsheng, the world's army, died in Jiazhuang, Julu.

Although Lu Xiangsheng was called the governor of the world, he could only use 20,000 soldiers. When he was about to fight, he had only 5,000 soldiers and generals. Gao Qiqian was thirty miles away and he was unable to rescue him.
