The beggar emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Early in the morning, on the official road.

A group of teenagers were trotting with their spears, and the sound of footsteps shocked the birds in the forest, fluttering their wings and flying into the sky.

"Stop going!"

With a loud shout, the team suddenly stopped.

Three hundred teenagers put down their spears one after another, sticking to the ground, panting, and dozens of mules and horses snorted.

They are obviously very tired.

"My son, why stop?"

After a night of bumps, Mrs. Li's face was very pale, but she still cheered up and asked Qin Yu who was not far away.

"Madam, how far is it from the trail?"

Qin Yu looked at the Tianlang Village not far away, without answering questions.

In the middle of the night, they ran for fifty miles, with almost no rest time in between.

"There should be more than twenty miles, what's the matter with the son?"

"That's bad. In our current state, it will take at least half an hour for more than twenty miles, but at sixty to seventy miles, the cavalry really let go. I'm afraid it will not only take half an hour, so continue to run. It is very likely that we were overtaken by the cavalry before we turned into the mountain road."

Qin Yu said solemnly, he didn't believe that the Eight Great Kings would let him go so easily. Even if the Eight Great Kings were willing to let him go, Sun Kewang would never give up.

"What should I do then?" Madam Li thought for a while, her face changed drastically, and asked anxiously.

The teenagers around him also heard the conversation between the two. By this time, almost everyone had guessed what was going on, and they looked at Qin Yu nervously.

"It seems that I can only fight one game, and then go."

Qin Yu turned over, jumped off the horse, raised his hands again, and helped her off the horse.

"What? Fight... a fight?"

As soon as Mrs. Li landed, she trembled.

"Yes, the battalions add up to only 300 riders. We still have more than 300 people. The terrain here is quite favorable for us, and the odds of winning are still great."

Qin Yu nodded, the other party will definitely send all cavalry to chase, and the reason for stopping here is because the terrain is not good for the cavalry to charge.

The inside of the official road here is a hillside, although it is not very steep, it is covered with bushes and thorns, while the outside is a large area of ​​fertile land, not far from the Han River.

The key is that the official road is nearly two meters higher than the liangtian, and it is still a paddy field. So as long as you choose the narrowest section of the road, you may not be able to stop the opponent.

Although he didn't want to fight this battle, he had to fight it because he continued to run and they were likely to be overtaken by the cavalry when they were exhausted.

And if you choose to fight a battle, you can rest and eat in place, otherwise the opponent is coming all the way.

Of course, you can go to Tianlang Village without being afraid of the opponent's cavalry, but that is a dead place. When the opponent's cavalry comes, you only need to block the mountain and then move the army to come. There is absolutely no vitality, so even if you swim across the Han River, Qin Yu will never Will go to Tianlangzhai.

Qin Yu didn't care about Mrs. Li, but stepped up a hillside on the inside. After everyone looked over, he said loudly:

"Brothers, I must have guessed that I am going to leave the rebel army. Yes, the eight kings did not listen to the truth, and insisted on crossing the river to fight Zuo Liangyu. I don’t want my brothers to die in vain, so I can only take everyone else. If I want to find another way, I don’t talk too much. If you don’t want to follow me, you can go now. I, Qin, will never force it."

Qin Yu akimbo his hips, while dancing with the other. The red cloak has long been soaked with dew, and the treasure knife tied around his waist is also squeaking. At first glance, there is really a peasant army leader's style. A Mingjun straw hat.

The teenagers were silent, obviously not reacting to it for a while, but Li Wan'er, who was just dismounted by Madam Li, looked at Qin Yu obsessively, and Madam Li was shocked by that.

"Chief, if we hadn't had you, we would have starved to death. No matter where you go, we will follow wherever we go, but where are we going?"

"Yeah, boss, I heard that there are officers and soldiers everywhere in Gucheng. If we walk like this, will we run into the officers and army?"

The teenagers are not stupid, but Qin Yu would take them seriously?

Who will make clothes for them?

Let them eat every day and teach them literacy and calligraphy?

After returning, I am afraid that they will continue to work every day. They are used as cannon fodder during the war. Other leaders will not ask them to be their confidantes, at most they will be ordinary rebels, so almost no one wants to leave.

Although he had already expected it, Qin Yu was still very pleased.

Hurry up and said loudly: "Brothers don't worry, Mrs. Li knows that there is a trail leading to Nanzhang, which can avoid the officers and soldiers. We will be safe when we get to Nanzhang, and Huguang is rich and rich. Don't talk about eating and drinking. With the spears in my hands, it’s not a problem for everyone to ask for a wife."

"Chief, really?"

"Can we really beg a woman?"

When the teenagers heard about begging a woman, all their eyes lit up, and they were no longer as worried as before.

After all, their greatest expectation in the past was to live, eat full meals every day, and beg a wife. That was something they couldn't even think of, but in the past two months, they never doubted Qin Yu's words.

"Of course it is true, but if you want to go to Huguang smoothly, you will have to go to Huguang in the future, for those who are fragrant, drink spicy, begging for a wife, and the last hurdle..."

With a big wave of his hand, Qin Yu explained that there might be chasing soldiers.

At this moment, the emotions of the teenagers have been mobilized, and their eyes are full of yearning for a better future, so they all have a high fighting spirit, and everyone is holding the gun.

Qin Yu did not delay, and immediately ordered to rest and eat dry food.

Then let the Dazhu brothers and ten apprentices, with the mother and daughter, lead their horses to escape.

Of course, more than a hundred gunpowder cans were unloaded.

After eating the dry food, when the teenagers had almost rested, they chose the narrowest section to prepare for the battle.

After losing more than 30 people last time, Qin Yu abolished the tenth team, and added five people from the iron apprentices, bringing the remaining nine teams to full staff, with a total of 270 people.

At this time, Qin Tie took thirty guards and climbed up the inner hillside, hiding in the bushes, each with three gunpowder cans.

The remaining 240 people, 120 people at the front and the rear, are only five meters apart, so that Chief Qin can ride on the horse to command.

Looking at the seven-eight-meter-wide official road ahead and the six-seven-meter grassland that grew out of the extension of the official road, Qin Yu thought for a while and ordered two large pits to be dug, each with more than ten gunpowder cans.

"Mother, what if Brother Xiaoyu and the others are defeated?" Li Wan'er said shiveringly while eating the pie while she was still young.

And the two brothers Dazhu and the twenty apprentices, although they were better, they were equally nervous and worried.

This is the difference between having really fought on the battlefield and just playing soy sauce.

"No, although the young man is young, he has extraordinary skills. Mother believes that he will win!"

Mrs. Li said with an affirmative expression, as if comforting them, but also comforting herself.

(Thanks to Prince Bai Yu and your bookmates for the rewards, and congratulations to Brother Bai Yu for being the first apprentice in this book. Thank you very much for your continued support and hope to continue your efforts! Bow.)
