There were more than 100 Later Jin soldiers in this team, divided into five or six teams. The most cutting-edge ones were already several miles away, and the last one had just appeared.

They appeared on both sides of the road in full armed manner. In the broken road, there was the unescaped Han Dingkou who was searched and picked up. Just like when they fled to Shanhaiguan, these Han people also helped the elderly and the young, but everyone looked sad. There was no panic or hope on their faces because they were facing the worst outcome.

The Manchu soldiers were scolding on the horse, and there were also some Han flag soldiers. They were black camp soldiers, who used Liaodong Han dialect to scold those slow-moving prisoners and ordered them to go faster.

Cheng Fang and others had been hiding in the grass, which was the outer edge of the Thirteen Mountains. They were the sharp whistles to observe the enemy situation. Three days ago, a team of selected dead soldiers sneaked through the Jurchen cavalry patrol and garrison area and headed to Ningyuan.

Now the forts in western Liaoning have been completely lost. Ningyuan is the city closest to Thirteen Mountains. Recently, there have been rumors from the west that Wang Zaijin planned to give up all the land outside the pass, increase the troops garrison in Shanhaiguan from 40,000 to 80,000, and then build three main passes to strengthen Shanhaiguan’s defense. All the land outside the pass is abandoned, and all the people are moved in, and placed in Yongping Prefecture to Zunhua and other places.

In March, Wang Dajin arrived in Liaodong and the court was divided into two factions. One wanted to restore the cities and forts in western Liaoning, while the other was standing on the side of Wang Zaijin, and he was only willing to build Shanhaiguan and save money to enrich Jizhen.

Ning Yuan’s guard general Zu Dashou should be on the side of Wang Zaijin at this time. After all, this person is one of the big bosses of the Donglin Party. He has a high position and a high chance of winning.

More than a month ago, the imperial court ordered Zu Dashou to build the city. After so long, this person delayed his efforts and had no intention of doing anything.

In a few months, the situations of Guangning and Shanhaiguan were changing. After the victory of the Later Jin Dynasty, the forces of all parties on the Ming Dynasty were still strangling and fighting each other. The plan for defense and war was still unfinished, continuing the tradition of endless struggles since the first year of Tianqi.

The people sent by Shisanshan wanted to risk their lives to sneak into Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan areas to find out real news.

If the first group of people is slow to return, the second group is Cheng Fang leading the people to set off.

There are now more than 100,000 people on the Thirteen Mountains, most of whom are fleeing from around Guangning City. In western Liaoning, there are nearly one million people, hundreds of thousands of people fled to Ningyuan and Shanhai≧≧≧≧, m.↘.c↖om Pass. Many people fled into the pass, some fled to Juehua Islands, hundreds of thousands were captured by the Later Jin soldiers, and a small number of people scattered in the countryside. Recently, they have been discovered and captured by the Eight Banners soldiers. Of course, there will be a small number of lucky people who have been hiding for no reason. After all, the Eight Banners soldiers have not had many troops left behind. In such a vast area, there must be quite a few people who have been hiding successfully.

Only the people here in Shisan Mountains are the most, with more than 100,000 people gathered. Yang Er and Bi Mazi and other great men made a lot of preparations in advance. The mountain is very large, and there were dozens of villages with water sources, wild vegetables, wild fruits, and some stored food. There was not much trouble for the time being. However, once summer and autumn pass and winter enters, more than 100,000 people gather in the mountains, supply is cut off and the food is consumed. At that time, there is only one way to starve to death.

As for the strong attack, there were not much fear on the Thirteen Mountains. There were about 100,000 people, and there were as many as 20,000 to 30,000. The people in Liaodong were indeed brave at this time. Those who dared not resist had been captured. Even in the area ruled by the Later Jin Dynasty, there were still many Liao people who were resisting with their lives and dying. Many people would find opportunities to escape. A few years later, only one-tenth of the Liao people died of six or seven million people. At that time, the Liao people could not be said to be brave and brave. After all, all the brave and brave people died in the cruel massacre and famine. The remaining people could only survive and their blood and courage had been exhausted.

Nowadays, the Thirteen Mountains are mainly men who dare to fight, and there are many weapons. Bi Mazi and Yang Er are both heroes and the leaders of the regiments recognized by the government. They have prepared a lot of weapons earlier, and then they have been constantly building gun heads on the mountain. Every middle-aged man tries to hold weapons as much as possible. There were originally many hunters in the mountain, and Ding Zhuangzi also has many people who are good at shooting, so there are also many archers.

There are also high mountains and deep ravines, and cavalry are difficult to enter. The ridges of the Thirteen Mountains are one after another. It is difficult for outsiders to feel at ease and boldly go deep. Otherwise, once they are in a hurry, there will be heavy casualties in the valley. Even if the Eight Banners soldiers fight bravely, they may not have the courage to run in and die.

The key now is still food. With food, the Thirteen Mountains are enough to fight until winter, and the Jurchens could never stay in the winter and spring. At that time, it is estimated that the court's debate will have a result. Whether the Thirteen Mountains to withdraw or stay will be easy to decide at that time.

"The Donglu is going to kill people." Yang Yi next to Cheng Fang suddenly whispered, pointing to a group of braided soldiers in front of him and cursed: "A group of beasts, fucked the dog god."

Many men lying in the grass cursed quietly. Donglu really wanted to kill a group of people, all of whom were weak old people picked out from the team. Most of these old people were old and weak. In fact, they were all trying to move forward and strive for their lives. However, with these people in the team, the team was moving too slowly. If the old man didn't die, even if he scolded and whipped, the team would still not move faster.

In the long queue, fifty or sixty slow-moving elderly people were picked out. Some of them were dull and some looked scared on their faces. Most of the elderly, whether men or old women, loudly advised their families not to make trouble and go back quickly.

Some children also started crying, and their families quickly covered their children's mouths. Later Jin soldiers believed that the children were also burdensome. If there were children crying, it was also dangerous and could easily be killed.

More than a dozen Later Jin soldiers came over with swords, and dozens of people rode horses to separate their families from the elderly.

A man rushes over with a swearing curse. An armored Bashku suddenly rushes forward. He stretches out his teeth and sword. Everyone can see the light of the sword. The man curses that his head is cut off, and his mouth seems to be still opening and closing in the air.

This Bashku seemed to be very satisfied with his sword. He looked at the entire Han team with cold eyes. Everyone lowered their heads. No one dared to speak out, and no child dared to cry.

"Behead them."

Bashku didn't have much, so he rode his horse slowly, and the horse slowly walked forward in leisurely gait, and wherever he went, there was a silence.

A group of Jurchens ordered the old men who were picked to kneel down, and then they cut off their heads with their hands. They all looked very indifferent, as if they were doing something insignificant. Killing people was too ordinary for these flag soldiers. After the war in recent years, Daming killed more than 100,000 soldiers alone, and almost every flag soldier had several lives, including the Tieling Slaughter, the Kaiyuan Slaughter, hundreds of thousands of Han soldiers and civilians, and the dozens of people in front of them were killed almost instantly.

The family and relatives of the murdered old man couldn't help but kneel down and cry, their heads hit the ground, and the eyes of several flag soldiers were full of death. They jumped off their horses and walked over. The Han people on the side quickly pulled these people up and continued to walk. Seeing this, the flag soldiers slowly walked back, rode back, and continued to patrol around.

Although it was a team that was escorting the flock, under such means, people looked at dozens of headless corpses on the side of the Tao and the blood-flowing land. At this time, even the brave man with blood was still afraid and could only run harder and go to Liaozhong and Liaodong to become a coat like a cow and horse.

Many people still don’t know that what awaits them is further suffering, more suffering, endless suffering... More than half of the thousands of Han people walking here will not survive the Chongzhen period, and more than 90% will not survive the peaceful years after the Qing army entered the pass.

"brute……"

When Yang Yi saw the pale haired heads being cut off, the man who ignored life and death was almost collapsed. If he had not been concerned about the lives of his friends, Yang Yi would have jumped out to fight the Eight Banners soldiers.

"Calm down." Cheng Fang pressed Yang Yi, everyone was very angry, but everyone could suppress their emotions... During this period, and even in recent years, I have seen too many such scenes.

The flag soldiers who escorted the people gradually walked away, and then a large number of people pushing carts came over. These people were all young and strong men. They were escorted together by the Jurchens, collecting the last wealth in western Liaoning. Whether it was torn clothes or broken furniture, or all kinds of food and grains, all kinds of miscellaneous items, all the things accumulated together, many of which were rags that the city people wanted. These things were still collected and slowly pushed to Liaodong with a car.

After all, the Eight Banners are barbaric tribes that have just come out of the mountains. Their productivity is too weak and they are poor for many years. In recent years, they have obtained the land of Liaodong and gradually got rid of the most primitive poverty. However, the materials and wealth in western Liaoning are still crucial to them and will never give up easily.

The escort of the convoy was still the cavalry. From far to near, the convoys in the near area had already passed to the Sancha River. There were still traces of cars under the distant sky. The cavalry holding spears or knives, and the red tassels in the caps were jumping gently on the horizon.

"It's difficult to hide the mountain..." Cheng Fang whispered to Yang Yi: "But it's not without chance. The enemy cavalry is still mainly plundering. The troops that besiege us are mainly the two yellow flags and Han soldiers. Most of them are stationed at the foot of the mountain. We just need to sneak up here, set off after dark, and rush to the road at night. After one night, we are close to Ningyuan, and just the Jurchen whistle cavalry in the heart. "

Yang Yi's eyes were a little blood-red, and he said, "Actually, what's the point of not going to go? Now from Shanhaiguan to Ningyuan and Juehua, they rely on Jin Guan and Zu Dashou's troops, which together are less than 10,000 infantry and cavalry, and then there are the Baika soldiers guarding Shanhaiguan, four or five thousand people. The remaining battalion soldiers are reinforcements from each town, most of which are defeated and fleeing soldiers and are not worthy of war.

Tens of thousands of soldiers from Ningyuan to Shanhai are the last embers, the number of soldiers is not large, and the number of servants is even rarer. The Ming army's several defeats in Liaodong is equivalent to the heavy blood loss of people, and it is really impossible to relieve it for a while.
