A few minutes later.

"Come on!"

Liu Gui, who was covered in blood, stood among the pile of dead bodies, holding a flintlock rifle with a bayonet, roaring.

Around him were dense enemies.

These Mongolian cavalry have dismounted, holding various weapons, and are also crowded among the piles of dead bodies and silently watching the last survivor of the transport team.

A Mongolian soldier walked forward with a spear and looked at him in front of Liu Gui...

Suddenly there was a loud roar.

Then the spear stabbed his chest straight.

Liu Gui didn't even hide, and took a step forward without hesitation. The spear was instantly stuck in his chest, but it was just stuck in the fold line of the breastplate. The polished carburized iron armor suddenly slid open, and at the same time his bayonet was stabbed in front of the Mongolian soldiers' chest. The latter's lightweight chain mail could not stop at all, which was actually a bayonet, and Liu Gui's bayonet even penetrated his body.

Amid his scream, Liu Gui suddenly pulled out the bayonet.

"Come again!"

He yelled.

Suddenly, there was a whistling through the air, followed by an arrow piercing his face.

But it wasn't too deep.

The arrow just stuck in the bone.

"Come again!"

He pulled out the arrow shaft, roaring with a bloody wound and a nailed arrow.

Then two arrows fell at the same time.

One was bounced away by the breastplate, the other hit his arm, and then bounced away by the ringed arm armor.

"What else do you do besides sneak attacks?"

He stood there with blood on his face and said in a contemptuous tone.

The Mongolian soldiers on the opposite side looked at each other, and one of them walked out immediately, with a spear in his hand, still a spear in his chest, but the strong breastplate protected Liu Gui again. Although the spear pierced the breastplate, it only pierced a short section.

He grabbed the spear.

The Mongolian soldier struggled to pull out, but he grabbed the spear with one hand and roared backwards. The Mongolian soldier who was not as strong as him immediately took a step forward.

The Mongolian soldiers around him immediately burst into laughter.

The Mongolian soldier looked angry and continued to pull out the spear out, but because his strength was a little different from Liu Gui, and the latter held the spear behind the spearhead and had a spearhead in front and blocked it. As long as his hand was not loosened, it would be a contest of strength between the two. However, the Mongolian soldier who could not compare with Liu Gui's nutrition and physique could not pull out the spear even with both hands. The two were in a stalemate for a while, and Liu Gui, who had only one hand, looked at his opponent with contempt.

The Mongolian soldiers around him continued to laugh, obviously mocking this companion.

The latter blushed and yelled and tried his best, but he still couldn't pull out the spear.

Liu Gui suddenly roared, and then suddenly moved backwards. The Mongolian soldier was led forward. Because he was stepping on the arms of a Mongolian soldier's corpse, he slid, loosened his hands, fell down on his back, and even greater laughter burst out around him. He lay on the ground, kicked the corpse angrily, and then prepared to get up and pull out the knife, but at this moment, he was stunned...

Among the dead bodies piled up behind Liu Gui, a man was holding a fire note, smiling at him while tremblingly piercing into the broken gunpowder barrel...

"Let's go down!"

The roar rang out immediately.

Liu Gui, who was prepared, threw himself into the pile of dead bodies.

"boom!"

The next moment was the sound of explosion like the collapse of the sky and the earth.

Then he also lost consciousness in the explosion...

"There is another one here, all of them are full of blood, I can't recognize who it is!"

I don’t know how long it took, but a voice suddenly woke him up. He hummed in pain and tried hard to open his eyes.

"I'm not dead yet, there's still someone who's not dead!"

The voice shouted in surprise.

Immediately in the background of the sun, a large number of figures appeared in his sight. One of them quickly stepped forward and looked down at him. This time Liu Gui recognized it. This time, this time, this was their brigade commander.

"Hurry back to treat the prisoners, and cut them all. Ma, I haven't suffered such a big loss yet. What are the wastes under Batu doing? More than a thousand cavalrymen come here and don't know!"

The brigade commander shouted.

Their outer periphery was the Mongolian herders of Batu, the king of Zhongshun.

After the latter retreated from Qinghai, it was placed in this area, which was the big and small Songshan. In addition to stationing in Jingtai, the second mixed brigade also served as their support, and also ensured that they would be supplied from Ningxia. When they traded with them, they would be traded with the Yuan Dynasty. If everyone was hostile, trade was still necessary. For example, the wood used by the Red Turban Army here was released by the Yuan Dynasty.

This is also the main source of livelihood for local people, after all, there is actually no other choice in this place.

"The brigade seat, Lutang Fort urgently reported, Shilin Post raises beacons."

Then an officer came to report.

"Report to the military headquarters immediately, this is a large-scale attack."

The brigade commander said.

The Shilin Outpost is located upstream, which is a warning to the Yellow River.

The beacon fire there means that the enemy is going downstream, and the target is definitely to attack Wufo Fort.

Jingtai is based on the county town as the core, plus the three outer castles. Behind Wufo Fort is the downstream river with smooth shipping, which is the main dock to Ningxia. There, boarding a ship can transport heavy artillery and drift down to Zhongwei City, and then attack Zhongwei City with heavy artillery. However, the enemy's attack on Wufo Fort was unable to transport heavy artillery in the water. The upper reaches of the river section can only carry leather rafts. Infantry carrying muskets cannot open the castle, so the land passage of Xingquan Fort has to be opened. As for Lutang Fort, it is necessary to defend the flank, and enemy infantry can arrive on leather rafts.

Then cut off the contact between Jingtai County and Xingquan Fort.

But after Lutang Fort was blocked, they could only use cavalry to bypass Xingquan Fort and harass them without any supplies.

This is useless.

After all, the cavalry of Batu will arrive soon.

Liu Gui was lying on the stretcher and finally realized his true awakening at this time. Although he had partially blocked the power of the powder barrel explosion because of too many corpses around him, he was also seriously injured.

In front of him was a scene of corpses everywhere. The main force of the Second Mixed Brigade, including the cavalry, were searching for dead bodies. It was obvious that during his coma, the brigade commander arrived with the main force and defeated the enemy. The captured enemy troops were being pressed to the side and then stabbed to death with bayonets one by one. Even gunfire could be heard from a distance, probably chasing the fleeing enemy. Looking at this scene, his injuries all over his body didn't seem to hurt...

Half a month later.

"This is going to run away!"

Yang Feng said with some surprise.

This is indeed going to run away...

Because there is no need for the Yuan Dynasty to attack Ningxia.

Although Ningxia is indeed the protruding part of the Red Turban Army that penetrates deep into their rear, this protruding part is useless at all.

Without enough logistics, the Red Turban Army could not maintain the attack in that direction.

This is why Yang Feng simply gave up the Hexi Corridor. In addition to giving up their retreat, it was actually not enough. The Red Turban Army relied heavily on logistics in combat. The fierce firepower meant that there must be a stable and sufficient supply line in the rear. The most perfect thing in this era is water transportation, but the problem is that there is no one there.

One is the middle section of the Yellow River in the Great Yuan Dynasty, and the other is the anti-current water transportation, especially the Yellow River in the upstream, which is extremely difficult.

Now his supply to Ningxia is the camel caravan.

Passing through Xuanda from the capital, naturalized and then replaced the ship in the newly built Wuyuan City, more than a thousand miles of which were purely transported by land.

This line is OK to maintain the defense and supplies of the Eighth Army of Ningxia, so don’t think about attacking or something.

The Yuan Dynasty was also very clear about this. There were a lot of former Yansui Ningxia governors, and even three-sided governors, and they were very clear about this issue. Moreover, attacking Ningxia would not bring them benefits. After all, they did not lack territory. In fact, the population of Shaanxi was constantly fleeing. Then the possibility of a sudden attack on Ningxia was only to escape, because to escape, the safety of this direction must be ensured, especially Jingtai, which poses too great a threat to their escape route.

From there, the Red Turban Army attacked and blocked Gulang Gorge, leaving only Qinghai Lake.

It is obvious that the famous officials of the Yuan Dynasty also knew themselves. As he successively resolved the north, Liaodong, and North Korea, they were already the next target.

They also know that they can't stand it.

Then the wisest choice is to escape next.

To escape, of course, the safety of the escape route must be solved. Otherwise, even if the Red Turban Army only attacks and harasses them, their losses will be extremely heavy.

Too close to Gulang Gorge.

Since that's the case...

"Then let them go!"

Yang Xiangguo said with satisfaction.

Since they already wanted to escape, I would push them to speed up. Besides, everything has been completed by this time, and it is time to start the Western Expedition.

Of course, it will take a little more time.

After all, he is opening the original place at this time!

Yang Prime Minister returned to his hometown and returned home in glory. Although it was his hometown, it was also the hometown of the Liaodong princes, so it still had to be built well. This was his fiefdom. Therefore, Kaiyuan was not only upgraded to Kaiyuan Prefecture, but also specially established the Liaodong princes' palace, including the Liaodong princes' guards designated by His Majesty the Emperor. The latter is the arrogant soldiers and powerful generals collected by Yang Feng from various towns in the Great Wall. They were incorporated into the Liaodong princes' guards, and the guard's quota was 10,000, which means that 10,000 arrogant soldiers and powerful generals would settle here to guard the vast fiefdom that had reached the Outer Xing'an Mountains for the Liaodong princes.

The number is still small.

However, this can only be solved in the future. After all, there are not many people willing to come.

Even though his conditions were already very generous, the Liaodong prince paid them military pay and assigned them women, and they were responsible for levying taxes on the Liaodong prince in the future.
To be continued...
