Chapter 76 Han Yinian's death (please invest after reading it!)
On the battlefield, more and more Ming soldiers surrendered with weapons, and more and more Ming soldiers who were caught by the People's Army soldiers were chopped (sting) and fell to the ground. The firearms company had ceased fire and rushed forward with the cold weapon troops.
Soon, Lai Fei's small team, who had arrived in the north of the battlefield (front left), came into contact with the People's Army soldiers.
"Drop your weapons and squat on the ground, and those who surrender will not be killed!" People's Army soldiers shouted to Lai Fei's small team of dozens of people.
"Sir, we used to be in the same group as them (Ming Army), but now we are rebelling. We have just killed more than ten thousand guards of the personal guards. We want to surrender to you." Lai Fei said respectfully to the People's Army soldiers in front of him.
"Terror to us, you put down your weapons first and wait here. The people behind will make arrangements for you. Don't worry, our People's Army will not face the people who put down their weapons." Cui Xuelin, the platoon leader of the camp, said to Lai Fei. After that, Cui Xuelin looked at Lai Fei and others to see what they were going to do. He held the weapons in his hands tightly, and was most worried that the group of people in front of him would be fake surrender.
Lai Fei just hesitated for a few seconds and was the first to throw down the weapon in his hand. At the same time, he said to the people around him: "Everyone should throw down the weapon. When you get here, there is nothing to hesitate."
Hearing Lai Fei's words, the rest of the small team threw down their weapons one after another, and even the Ming soldiers who mistakenly followed the team also threw down their weapons.
Cui Xuelin left two people to look at Lai Fei and his gang, and continued to pursue the escaped Ming army with his subordinates.
The Ming army ran out and ran back again, but when they ran out, there were nearly a thousand people, and when they ran back, there were less than a hundred people. Hundreds of corpses were left on the battlefield, hundreds of surrendered, and dozens of people took the initiative to surrender to the People's Army. There were only more than two hundred defenders left in the city of Haifeng Qianhushou.
As for Hu Zhuang, the People's Army has only killed or injured more than 20 people, but there are still thousands of soldiers fighting.
How can two hundred soldiers with no morale defend the city under the attack of one thousand enemies? What's more, the enemy has very sharp firearms.
Han Yinian and other officers from Haifeng Thousand Household Offices who fled into the city did not stay in the city for long, immediately returned to the mansion to pack up some gold, silver and soft materials and took their families. They took advantage of the People's Army's failure to surround the city and quickly escaped. If the city was surrounded, they would not be able to escape and their lives would be left behind.
The Ming soldiers on the west city wall were still thinking of defending the city under the leadership of Lord Qianhu, but they did not expect that when the People's Army completed half-encirclement of the city, Lord Qianhu had already left the east city gate with his people. Seeing that Lord Qianhu had run away, the Ming soldiers at the city gate on the east city wall followed the abandoned city and fled.
However, Hu Zhuang would not let the enemy run away so easily. Not long after Han Yinian's team left the city, the only cavalry unit in the People's Army along the way came to the front of Han Yinian's team.
This cavalry unit has a small number of people, only six. To be more precise, this cavalry unit is a firearms reconnaissance squad. In order to adapt to the battle on horseback, the six cavalry not only can use tiger-headed spears, but also can use bows and arrows. Before joining the People's Army, the squad leader Fan Yong was a hunter who was proficient in archery.
"shoot!"
The number of people was too small, and there was no need to shout words of persuasion to surrender. With Fan Yong's order, six arrows shot towards Han Yinian's team, and five arrows accurately shot five enemies, four seriously and one slightly injured.
After shooting a wave of arrows, Fan Yong and his six immediately rode away on horseback, preparing for the next wave of attacks. Fan Yong and his six were tasked with delaying the enemy's escape and waiting for the subsequent large forces of the People's Army to catch up with the enemy.
When he saw five people in the team being shot by the enemy's arrows, especially one of them was not far from him. Han Yinian, who was in the front position of the team, was shocked.
"How could there be thieves like this? Go and kill the thiefs quickly. Who can kill one person? Reward 100 taels of silver!"
Hearing Han Yinian's words, several people in the team had ideas about the silver reward, but in the end they did not choose to stand up.
Many people in Han Yinian's team can shoot archers, but very few people can ride and shoot, and even fewer people are proficient in ride and shoot. Fan Yong's six men are equivalent to six archers with very good archery skills. When the archers harass the team, the best way to eliminate the archers is this team, which also sends archers to use archers to fight archers.
Secondly, many archers gathered together, and when the archers attacked, the archers shot arrows together.
There were no multiple people who were good at volleys in Han Yinian's team to kill Fan Yong and the other six.
"Sir, it's better for us to retreat in scattered ways." An officer offered advice to Han Yinian.
"No, we cannot retreat in dispersion, and we are easily defeated by the enemy one by one." Han Yinian immediately expressed his objection.
It is indeed easy for some people to escape if the team is dispersed, but Han Yinian himself is too conspicuous. The team is dispersed and it is very likely that the six cavalry will follow Han Yinian. This makes Han Yinian run away better than the team to act together.
Han Yinian thought about it and issued an order: "Continue to move forward, the archers are ready, and the thieves come and shoot arrows together."
Hearing the words of Lord Qianhu, the others could only do it and the team continued to move forward, but the entire team was cautious and prepared for enemy cavalry that could rush over at any time.
After the team had only been moving for more than ten seconds, Fan Yong and Sixth Cavalry came again. The team stopped immediately. The archer quickly pulled the bow and prepared to shoot the arrow. However, he did not expect that Fan Yong and Sixth Cavalry had a fake shot outside the range of the bow and arrow and rode his horse away again, and did not enter the range of the bow and arrow.
Two archers in Han Yinian's team couldn't help but shoot arrows. The arrows flew in the air for a while, and fell to the ground when they were more than ten meters away from the last riding.
"Damn it, go quickly, the thief behind you will catch up." Han Yinian roared angrily.
However, the team marched for more than ten seconds, and Fan Yong and the sixth cavalry came again. The team stopped to prepare for archery. Fan Yong and the sixth cavalry flew again and left without a single arrow.
When the team marched again, the figures of the People's Army soldiers had already appeared in the vision of the people at the end of the team.
"Run, run quickly, the thief is catching up." The people behind the team were unwilling to follow the team and immediately left and wanted to escape in other directions.
Seeing the changes behind the team, Han Yinian quickly made up his mind and looked at the carriage where his wife and children were riding reluctantly. Han Yinian shouted to the "cavalry" in the team: "People riding horses follow me!"
The family was arrested and ran away by themselves. Among the two choices, most people riding horses chose the latter. It is a shame to abandon their wife and children, but why should a real man have no wives?
"drive!"
Han Yinian rushed towards the northeast with eight riders. There were more than a dozen people riding horses, but several of them were shot by Fan Yongliu. Even if they were not seriously injured, they would not have the chance to escape.
Seeing the Qianhu people fleeing, the team quickly became chaotic and everyone fled in scattered.
Han Yinian's nine cavalry were so conspicuous that Fan Yong and the six cavalry quickly chased each other, and the distance between the two sides was slowly getting closer.
Looking at the most conspicuous person among the enemy cavalry, on the horse's back, Fan Yong pulled out an arrow from the arrow bag and put it on the bow. The bowstring quickly opened, aimed, and let go.
Whoosh!
Han Yinian, who was riding a horse in front, was hit by an arrow in the back. After only a few seconds, his whole body fell off the horse's back.
Chapter completed!
