One second he was eating barbecue, the next second he became a barbecue …….
This is the embarrassing and miserable true portrayal of the Ming army in front of the Cherry Orchard, a group of people who blocked the Japanese invaders.
Fortunately, the Ming army backwater deep ditch, is dug in haste, only four metres wide and eight metres deep, more than a thousand Ming army was driven into the deep ditch by the Japanese, trampling each other, or many Ming army was able to trample on the body of the robe in the burned to death before escaping, the smell of burned meat and the Ming army’s screams of despair, in this evening spread unusually far ……
Hu Zongxian as well as the Zhenwei battalion of the commander-in-chief Zhang Daoren are in the soldiers of the desperate protection, in the deep ditch stepped on the body of the soldiers climbed out of the deep ditch, escaped with his life, lost his helmet and armour, his beard and hair by the fire burnt yellow, his face blood Ban Ban, clothes were bombed and burned rags, the whole person is in a sorry state to the extreme …….
In the frame of the soldiers’ arms to Yingtian City to escape in a sorry state, Hu Zongxian efforts to tilt his head back to look at a glance. ”
The remnant sun is like blood!
Blood like the remnant sun!
Cherry Orchard under the bloody sun is like hell on earth, the Japanese have been too lazy to swing their swords to kill, drive the remnants of the Ming army into deep pits like cattle, save the innocent and cruel use of gunpowder to blow up and burn the Ming army.
Although there is still a succession of Ming army from the hell like deep ditch to climb out, but can climb out of the people more and more less and less, deep ditch left at least six or seven hundred was burned beyond recognition of the corpses. ”
This is the first group of his own leading army, the time and place and people, never thought that the race would be so tragic ……
Has been by the soldiers to escape to the Yingtian city in a mess, Hu Zongxian still did not come back from the Cherry Orchard debacle.
Even if it is inspecting Dazhong and other border towns, the border troops encountered Ita enemy chiefs and defeated, has not been defeated so tragic human failure!
Can not help it, two lines of hot tears from Hu Zongxian’s eyes flowed down, and with the blood on the face into the mouth.
Salty, fishy flavour came one after another, deeply engraved in the bone marrow, Hu Zongxian clenched his teeth, clenched his fists, damned Japanese, you give me to wait, today’s shame, never forget!”
“Open the door, open the door, open the door!””
The routed soldiers fled to the bottom of Yingtian city and found the city gate closed, they couldn’t help but cry and shout at the gate of Yingtian city and clap and scream, shouting for the city to open the door, and kicking the door with their feet when they got excited.
The soldiers called the door while looking back with palpitations, fearing that the Japanese will catch up.
Fortunately, the robes in the deep ditch bought them time, and there was no sign of the Japanese behind them.
“What are you shouting for, who’s kicking the door, kick the door again and I’ll shoot arrows!Who are you people?!”
The soldier guarding the city looked down from the city wall and cursed.
“Blind your dog’s eyes, I am the Zhenwei Battalion that is blocking the Japanese invaders for you, don’t open the door for your grandfathers!”.
“The old men fought to the death in the Cherry Orchard outside of the city to block the Japanese invaders and protect you, but in turn, they were locked up by you outside of the city.”
“Open the door, open the door quickly!”
“Please, open the door quickly, the Japanese are about to come after us …..”
The routed soldiers either threatened, coloured, or begged .–…By all means call for the door.
However, the city gate was never opened, the soldiers guarding the gate had long been ordered by the Yingtian trio, no matter what happens, without a joint handwritten letter from the three, the gate can never be opened, or kill without amnesty!
At the critical moment, Hu Zongxian and Zhenwei battalion commander-in-chief Zhang Daoren could not care about face, had to show his face, let his personal soldiers with torches to shine, to the guards on the city wall to reveal their identity.
On the city wall there are generals have seen Hu Zongxian and Zhang Daoren, and there are two people’s waist plate, quickly check the identity!”
Seeing Zhejiang inspectors and supervisors as well as Zhenwei battalion commander-in-chief outside the city, the guards on the city wall did not dare to be slow, and hurriedly reported, Zhang Jing and others are sitting on the city wall, heard the news of Hu Zongxian and Lord Zhang, hurriedly came to confirm that it is Hu Zongxian and others are not wrong, and ordered the guards on the wall to put down nearly a hundred hanging baskets, and hoisted Hu Zongxian and others up. +
“Imperial Consul Hu and Lord Zhang, forgive me, now that the Japanese have violated the border, as a precautionary measure, I will have to commission you to enter the city through the hanging baskets.”
Shi Pengfei, the right minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and explained to Hu Zongxian and Lord Zhang, the commander of the Zhenxian Battalion.
“It’s a matter of urgency, this is as it should be.”Hu Zongxian coughed and clasped his fists in thanks, Zhenwei Battalion Master Commander Zhang Daoren had not yet recovered from the shock, with a lingering look on his face, he would only follow and nod his head.
“Imperial Marshal Hu, Lord Zhang, the two of you stopped the Japanese invaders in front of the Cherry Orchard, what were the exact battle conditions?”
Zhang Jing asked with a concerned face.
In fact, at the first sight of Hu Zongxian and Lord Zhang, Zhang Jing knew that they were defeated, lost their armour, routed, more than a thousand soldiers and horses only came back half, but still hold a ray of hope, in case of a disastrous victory …..In addition, even if they were defeated, to what extent, both sides of the battle losses, this is also to ask clearly.
Hearing Zhang Jing’s enquiry, Hu Zongxian’s face instantly turned as red as blood, and Lord Zhang’s head was lowered into his trousers.
The two were embarrassed and ashamed to the extreme, Hu Zongxian took a deep breath and said in shame: “Ahem, I dare not hide it from you gentlemen, we were defeated, defeated …..”
“Defeated ah ……”
The right minister of the Ministry of War Shi Pengfei and others were stunned.
“How are the battle losses?How about the inertia of the Japanese losses?”Zhang Jing then asked. Battle losses?”
How about Japanese losses?!!!
When Hu Zongxian heard this, his face turned even redder, as if he had been smeared with pig’s blood, ashamed, and it took all his strength to make a sound, “The Japanese have not lost a single person ……Our army lost more than half ……”
Jibi, Hu Zongxian a lift robe to the direction of the capital long kneeling, “Alas, the next official shame on the saint ah.”
“Ah?!What?!The Japanese have not lost a single person, but our army has lost more than half of its men?How could this be?!”
Zhang Jing opened his mouth wide in disbelief, sucked in a breath of cool air, and let out four queries in succession.
“The matter is like this ……”Hu Zongxian simply dictated the battle of Cherry Orchard.
“Oh, it’s really a defeat ah, the Japanese have not lost a single person, they actually lost half of their troops!In the morning took the initiative to ask for war bravado can not, who expected to hit the face so fast, this is only in the evening has been routed, a defeat …..”
“Ridiculous, drawing a tiger does not make a dog, Xiang Yu broke the kettle, Han Xin backwater battle, he also learnt others to dig a ditch a battle, the result backfired pit killed half of their own soldiers and horses, it is really ridiculous ……”
“No diamond drill, don’t take that porcelain work ah. Bravado to block the Japanese, disgraceful and conspicuous it. Look at him later still have the face to go to our barracks patrol supervision not, chattering about chatter through the chatter, said the model, the results of the actual battle up, more than a thousand people to fight dozens of Japanese invaders, are defeated into this. Anyone can command better than him!”
Some of the officials on the city wall heard this and couldn’t help but let out a loud comment, especially some of the generals from the Beijing camp even let out several scoffs without hiding it.
Hearing this, Hu Zongxian’s face became more and more red as blood …..
The news of the disastrous defeat of the Ming army in the Cherry Orchard blockade quickly spread, and extreme panic instantly swept across the whole city of Yingtian!
