Boluo and others rushed out of the West Gate, but fortunately they did not encounter strong obstacles from the Ming army.

The first thing Boluo did when he escaped from Longyan was to instruct his personal soldiers to leave the main force and immediately rushed to Nanzhili with his letter.

The letter was written to Duoduo in Mandarin.

"Fifteenth uncle Wang Junjian: My nephew was suddenly attacked by the Ming army on the night of July 28. Because everyone held a firearm called grenade, they were extremely powerful and were incompatible with our cavalry and shooting skills. Zheng Zhilong's troops failed to encircle the Ming army's retreat on time, resulting in great casualties. My nephew could not resist and retreated to Longyan. He was attacked by the Ming army, who had been plagued by the people, at night. He attacked inside and outside. The nephew had to withdraw from Longyan and flee to Tingzhou.

My nephew saw Zhu Youlang using military force, with a long-term layout, good at using the right time and place, skillful and intelligent but not good at fighting hard.

The grenades used by the Ming army were created by Zhu Youlang. They brought two with them with their letter and asked Uncle Wang Guanzhi to ask his uncle to guard them. My nephew thought that if we could not come up with a way to restrain ourselves in time, our wish to destroy the Ming Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty would be difficult to realize.

During the Second World War, my nephew's army suffered more than 46,000 casualties, which was a great crime. However, my nephew knew that the army was running away, and Zhu Youlang had many tricks and had many dangers in the future. It was unknown whether he could see King Shu alive, so he risked his life to repay his foolishness. I asked King Shu to make plans early."

The letter was written long ago, but it was difficult for the Ming army to siege the city and could not be sent out.

In Boluo's view, even if he retreats to Tingzhou, it will be very dangerous.

Seeing Zhu Youlang's use of troops, Tingzhou might have had internal support and secret stances. If he had rested in Tingzhou, as long as he was surrounded by Li Chengdong's army, the second Battle of Longyan might have been staged.

Therefore, the best way is to not enter Tingzhou and flee back to Zhejiang directly. However, after fighting for several days, his troops have long become tired troops and cannot bear the pain of continuous running. Even if people can bear it, the horse cannot bear it. He must take a few days off before he can escape back to Zhejiang.

But will Li Chengdong let himself withdraw calmly?

So, he felt that his future was very dangerous.

Therefore, he had to report Zhu Youlang's military characteristics and the new weapon of grenade to Duoduo as soon as possible, so that he could prepare early so as not to suffer losses in the future.

Furthermore, you should find the scapegoat earlier.

The backs of several personal soldiers quickly disappeared into the darkness of the night, and Boro felt a little relaxed.

Whether for the interests of the Aisin Gioro family or from their own merits and demerits, a matter as big as "the weapon is not as good as a human being" must be reported so that we can think of countermeasures early. Of course, this is also the best reason for waived by himself. As for Zheng Zhilong, I believe Duoduo can understand that it is just a scapegoat. On the 27th, if Zheng Zhilong is attacked on the 28th, no matter how great his ability is, he will not be able to fly to Zhangzhou overnight in Quanzhou, and even more so, there are Ming army naval troops on the sea to intercept it.

However, despite this, Zheng Zhilong was indeed a fat and white scapegoat. The Han people and the wealthy family were rich, and it was in the interests of the bannermen who slaughtered him.

...

Shortly after leaving the city, the scout came to report that the army's cavalry had caught up. Boro quickly ordered: "Speed ​​up!"

The Qing soldiers immediately accelerated their speed, and the horses rushed up. The entire team began to run wildly at the fastest speed, with the sound of hooves like thunder, awakening the villages and rivers on both sides, and awakening the dim sky.

The sky gradually became brighter, and the wide road ahead, the clear stream beside the road and the winding mountains in the distance were very clear. Boluo felt that his vision and mind were wider: "This is Meihua Mountain, and after passing this mountain, it is the boundary of Tingzhou. Such a good weather and such a wide road should arrive in Tingzhou soon."

Unfortunately, his good mood didn't last long, and he heard a few loud noises coming from the front of the team, "boom", "boom", "boom"...

The team that moved forward was in chaos and the horses ran around.

“Well…”

Boro finally controlled the "Red Beast" and looked forward.

The team in front was in chaos, and there were loud noises from time to time. Boro couldn't help but wonder: "I heard that this sound was louder than the sound of a grenade, and no Ming army appeared. What kind of weapon is this?"

I looked at both sides and saw hills on both sides, and there were no steep mountain mountains. It was impossible that the Ming army threw down the hills.

"It's not like shooting a cannon, what's going on?"

Boro was both frightened and confused.

After a panic, the brigade stopped. Zhao Butai, Duld and Tulai were all following Boluo. They all had the same thoughts and waited for the front to come and report the news.

"Report! Mr. Beizi, the Ming army buried the grenade underground. When the horse stepped on it, it exploded a large pit that was more than a dozen years old. The iron pieces and stones collapsed. People, those who were killed or injured, and more than eighty people disappeared in an instant!"

The vanguard was Tu Lai's subordinate, the guerrilla general Ling Wuzhi. At this time, Ling Wuzhi rode his horse to report.

"Didn't you find the Ming army?"

"No. There is no one on the road."

Boluo quickly thought about countermeasures when he heard this: "The Ming army followed closely, and this must be a small group of Ming troops setting up an ambush to block our army, intending to hinder the pace of our army. No, we must rush over quickly. If the Ming army is surrounded, the entire army will inevitably be wiped out."

He looked at the hills on both sides. Although there was no movement at all, there must be a small group of Ming troops hidden. If it were on weekdays, he would have to find a way to destroy these Ming troops first. But now it is not possible, so it is important to hurry up.

"The situation is critical, don't fight. Now there is only one way to go. No matter how many people die, they have to rush out. Tu Lai, please order your people to rush for the master. This is a small army of the Ming army. There will definitely not be many grenades buried underground. You have to rush a way to fill in your lives!" Boluo made up his mind and ordered Tu Lai to rush.

"Yeah!" Tu Lai agreed and turned to Ling Wuzhi's way: "The war horse is shocked, Wuzhi, please order your people to dismount and rush out on foot!"

This is to take the lives of the Han people and open the way for the bannermen! Ling Wuzhi's heart is cold. But can he not listen? Do he dare not listen? Tu Lai is the banner owner and has the power to kill them, not to mention that their families are all in Beijing. Tu Lai can slaughter all their families at the order.

"I obey the order. Master, if I die in battle, I will ask me to take care of the little girl in the family." Ling Wuzhi knelt down and kowtowed, begging.

"Don't worry, I will take care of your youngest family and will not let them suffer any pain." Tu Lai agreed readily.

"Thank you for your grace." Ling Wuzhi kowtowed again, stood up, and turned around and left resolutely.

When he arrived in front of the team, Ling Wuzhi got off the horse and pulled out his waist knife: "Master has orders, all of them will be dismounted and rush over to me!"

"No, General, isn't this going to let the brothers die? We only have a few hundred brothers left, so we can't afford to hurt." Several thousand generals under our command came over and begged bitterly.
