Chapter 160 I'm Suffocating
Fu Chenan picked up the intercom: "Received."
The voices of two deputy generals, Qiu Lishan and Ma Junda, were then heard on the intercom: "Received."
"receive."
"General Fu, General Fu, the Tatar cavalry has divided into about 10,000 people, wrapped their hooves with cloth, and bypassed the valley. It seems that they want to bypass Jeju City and go directly to the capital..."
Fu Chenan's eyes were sharp: "Got it."
Qiu Lishan asked on the intercom: "General Fu, what should we do next? Stop them? Or chase them?"
Fu Chenan: "If they want to launch a surprise attack, they will not dare to alarm the people and will only attack the capital directly..."
"There are still so many defenders in the capital. With 10,000 cavalrymen, they can't cause any trouble." It is more likely that both sides will suffer losses.
But can the soldiers in the camp outside the capital withstand the bravery of the Tatar cavalry?
Even if it is possible, it will cost a heavy price, right?
"Wait for my order."
Qiu Lishan and Ma Junda answered: "Yes!"
"Qiu Lishan, tell Shi Tong to hide them well and not to reveal any clues. If the Tatar cavalry escape back to the grassland, bring them to justice with your heads."
"Here..."
Qiu Lishan personally led a scout team to a forest near the valley where the Tatar cavalry was located. He was only a dozen miles away from Shi Tong's 20,000 Fu family troops.
This is exactly the distance that an intercom can communicate.
Fu Chenan stroked the intercom which had returned to silence, and looked at the stars in the night sky.
If Xiao Yingchun had not made preparations in advance and prepared a lot of compressed biscuits, the Fu family army would have suffered a lot in this situation.
Compressed biscuits are nutritious and can be eaten without making a fire.
Each soldier filled a plastic bottle of boiled water and survived the day quietly without any problem.
Over the past day, the Tatar cavalry sent out a number of scouts to try to find out how many people in the Fu family army were chasing them.
However, Fu Chenan took advantage of the scout's high ground and the information that could be transmitted back in time by the walkie-talkie, and successfully ambushed the enemy scout in advance and shot him dead.
After trying several times, the Tatar cavalry gave up the idea of gathering information and instead decided to "attack the capital at night."
Seeing that it was getting dark, the captain of the guards stood by Fu Chenan and reminded him softly, "General, please take a rest first. I will call you when there is news."
Fu Chenan gathered the quilt around him and lay down on the recliner: "Okay, call me in an hour..."
Beijing, midnight.
When the grappling hooks were placed on the high city walls and the Tatar cavalry climbed up, the soldiers defending the city could not believe their eyes.
Didn’t they say that the Tatar cavalry is still outside Jeju City?
How did you suddenly end up in the capital?
The soldiers defending the city sounded the alarm bell desperately.
Urgent alarm bells rang throughout the palace, and there was panic and chaos inside and outside the palace.
The soldiers began to gather and deploy, and go up to the city walls for defense.
The emperor in the palace was also awakened. He climbed out of the concubine's bed in his bright yellow pajamas in fear and said, "What happened? Someone come!"
Lu Daban hurried forward to reply.
It turned out that the Tatar cavalry bypassed Jeju City and attacked the foot of the capital.
"What is Fu Chenan doing for a living? Didn't I give them half a month's worth of food and wages?"
"He deceived the emperor! He is a traitor..."
The emperor cursed while hurriedly having someone help him put on his clothes.
The commander of the imperial guards came forward to ask for instructions: "Your Majesty, the camp outside the capital has been attacked. There are only 30,000 soldiers there. If they face 50,000 Tatar cavalry, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."
"May I ask whether we should send the Guards Battalion to provide assistance?"
The emperor was in a state of panic: "What kind of help do you want?"
"There are only a few people left in the palace. The Royal Guards will come to the palace to protect me!"
"We have all gone to help them. If the Tatar cavalry breaks in, who will protect me?!"
The commander of the imperial guards understood: the emperor was going to let the camp outside the capital fend for itself, and it would be best if he could defeat the enemy with a smaller force and kill the Tatar cavalry before rushing to the rescue of the palace!
However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations.
Only a thousand Tatar cavalrymen went to harass the camp outside the capital.
It was pitch dark and no one knew how many people had arrived at the camp outside the capital. They were as if they were facing a powerful enemy, but they still did not dare to fight. Instead, they took a defensive posture.
They held on until dawn and only then saw clearly that there were not many Tatar cavalry outside.
At this time, the Tatar cavalry outside the capital city used bows to shoot arrows, sending flaming arrows into the city. In the dark night, they did not need to aim at the target at all, but just fired rockets into the city, and then took advantage of the chaos in the city to find a way to climb the city wall with grappling hooks.
But they didn't expect that the defense forces of the capital city didn't care about the lives of the people at all and only cared about dealing with those who climbed the wall.
Soon, houses were set on fire and the people in the city began to put out the fire while crying.
However, while we were putting out the fire here, the rockets from the other side continued to fire.
How many can be saved?
Everyone was expecting the Emperor to send the Fire Scuba Army with water dragons, or even send the Imperial Guards or Imperial Guards to help put out the fire...
But until dawn, no army appeared.
The weather was dry and the people watched in vain as their houses burned to ashes, crying heartbreakingly.
Where is the submarine army?
On standby in the palace.
The emperor was afraid of death and was worried that the palace would catch fire and they would not be able to rescue in time, so he ordered all the fire-hitting troops to do their best to protect the palace.
The commander of the imperial guards asked for permission to go out of the palace to put out the fire, but after being scolded by the emperor, he never dared to touch the dragon's beard again.
But many of the imperial guards already lived in the capital, and many of them were even from aristocratic families in the capital.
They watched helplessly as fires broke out everywhere outside the palace, burning half the sky red. They were powerless and one can imagine the anxiety and anger in their hearts.
After waiting for a long time until dawn, Fu Chenan finally led 10,000 Fu family soldiers and 20,000 soldiers from the camp outside the capital and rushed over.
It was relatively easy for the Fu family army to deal with the Tatar cavalry that had been attacking for a whole night. They quickly defeated them and forced them to retreat, leaving behind hundreds of horses and corpses.
At this time, the soldiers in the camp outside the capital also saw clearly that there were only one thousand Tatar cavalry outside, and finally dared to rush out to fight.
A thousand Tatar cavalrymen turned around and fled.
The camp outside the capital rushed to the capital to rescue. All the houses that could be burned were burned down, and the Tatar cavalry were also driven away by the Fu family army...
The leader, General Zhu, looked at the charred areas of the capital and felt his eyes go dark!
His family is also in Beijing!
He ordered the soldiers to help the people rescue the remaining supplies, and General Zhu led the rest of the people to the palace gate to ask for an audience with the emperor...
In the palace, Fu Chenan was kneeling in the court, accepting the emperor's wrath.
"Fu Chenan! You bastard!"
"I asked you to drive the Tatar cavalry back to the grasslands. What did you do?"
"They ran outside the capital in the middle of the night and set off rockets!"
"So many people in the city were displaced overnight! The houses were reduced to ashes!"
"How can you be worthy of me? How can you be worthy of the court? How can you be worthy of the people of the capital?!"
Fu Chenan did not argue, but kowtowed respectfully: "I thought the Tatar cavalry was trapped in the valley, but who knew they actually divided 10,000 cavalrymen, wrapped the horseshoes and secretly came to the capital..."
"I am late in coming to your rescue, Your Majesty, please punish me!"
emperor:! ! !
The emperor wanted to punish them, but the Tatar cavalry were still roaming outside the capital, and the Fu family army was also outside the capital.
Moreover, Fu Chenan was the only general willing to lead his army to drive out the Tatar cavalry...
How does he punish?
Even if I am so angry that I vomit blood, I cannot kill Fu Chenan at this time!
I'm dying of suffocation!
Thank you for your support, care and suggestions.
The old man was diagnosed last year and it should be late-stage AI that has metastasized.
We didn’t dare to perform surgery at the age of 80 and we didn’t dare to let him know, so he chose Chinese herbal medicine for treatment.
More than a year has passed, and he is not in any pain, can eat and sleep well, and his mental state makes me admire him!
Because it didn't hurt, he firmly believed that he was not AI.
So he chose to continue farming.
What we can do is: no matter what he wants to eat or play, we will do our best to satisfy him!
Of course, preparations must be made to avoid being in a rush.
If he starts to feel pain, he has to go to the hospital.
So I'm going to save the manuscript...
Thank you again for your concern!
I choose to update every morning because I don’t want my kids to stay up late to read my books.
Good health is the most important!
Love you guys!
