In the darkness, Liu Chengfeng stood there beating his horse.
Groups of New Army military attach¨¦s carrying muskets have already assembled.
There were hundreds of these military attaches, ranging from column officers to squad officers. They stood with bated breath, waiting for orders.
Liu Chengfeng sighed and said: "The people of the Yuan Dynasty were cruel, enslaving my Han people, killing and flogging our ancestors. Fortunately, Emperor Taizu obeyed the destiny and punished the thieves from heaven. He swept across the world and went straight to the desert. The Yuan Dynasty was destroyed. , the rest were as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog, and did not dare to look south to the Central Plains for decades."
"At the time of Emperor Wen, Emperor Wen had amassed a hundred thousand tigers and ferrets, and entered the desert seven times, killing the remnants of the Yuan people. When the generals came out of seclusion, the tigers and rats were scurrying around. What kind of courage was this?"
"But when Emperor Yingzong was around, he believed in the eunuch's words, which led to the Tumu Fort incident. The barbarians returned to Guanzhong, burned, killed, and looted, and ran rampant. This hatred is irreconcilable. You are deeply valued by the imperial court. Well, how can we not avenge the barbarians who deceived the king?"
"Our enemies are on the other side of us. What they stand on is the land of Ming Dynasty. In their barracks, our brothers and sisters are also imprisoned. Today, I give you an order. My order is ¡ª¡ªeye for eye."
"Send the order: The first and second columns cross the river to surprise the Mongolian camp. There must be no mistake! You" Liu Chengfeng looked at them and said word by word: "You may have a narrow escape from death if you go, but this king I believe you, even if you die, you will definitely let Hulu¡¯s corpses and blood lie under your bullets and bayonets. Go back to camp and be prepared."
After Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, he turned his horse back to his Chinese army tent. As the commander, it was impossible for him to charge into the battle. He wanted to sit in the tent and hear the news of the victory.
After two days and two nights of hard work, the Mongols were already a little tired at this time. Liu Chengfeng could confirm that now was the best time for a surprise attack.
It depends on people to make plans and God to make things happen. Whether you can succeed or not depends on now.
Defeatthen more than 20,000 New Army soldiers will sleep on the other side.
If you win, you will give these arrogant Mongolians a fatal blow and let them know that there is still a group of people and a military horse, and there are still people who can defeat them. The Mongolian cavalry is not invincible, and the Han people are by no means weak!
The sound of cannons still rings in my ears. This is not only a farewell salute, but also a sound used to disrupt the audition.
At this time, the Mongolians were probably exhausted and had exhausted their last bit of energy.
People have to sleep, and they can't take a nap for two days and two nights. No matter how loud the cannon sounds are now, I'm afraid these people will inevitably desert.
Liu Chengfeng sat silently. He would not watch off the officers and soldiers who dared to die. He was only willing to wait here, without any pride or ambition.
Many awning boats that have been recruited have already quietly sailed to the other side with nearly 20,000 new troops on the several-mile-long river. There will be no Mongols within several miles of the other side. The Mongols have already suffered a loss. If you were close to the river, you would be in danger of being smashed into pieces by cannonballs. At this time, the sound of cannons had stopped, and countless people began to touch the shore.
Cavalry raids are different from infantry raids. If the cavalry raids at night, they can directly rush into the enemy camp and divide the enemy camp into several sections to kill them repeatedly.
But the infantry must maintain formation. Without formation, it will be difficult to exert combat effectiveness.
But before coming, everyone had silently memorized their gathering positions. Each battalion and team quietly gathered together. Everyone had an ammunition in their firecrackers. After firing this ammunition After that, it was a close combat with a blunderbuss with a bayonet.
This night is destined to be extraordinary for them.
In fact, at this time, there was already some movement in the Mongolian army's continuous camp, and at this time, each team began to rush toward their respective goals.
Bang Bang
The sound of firecrackers sounded.
The cry of killing came out.
The crowd rushed towards the Mongolian camp.
The Mongolian army camp was in chaos.
Someone was woken up and didn¡¯t know what happened.
Some people still refuse to wake up, and some even know that the enemy is coming, but when the sleepiness comes, they are still hypnotizing themselves, and they will sleep for a while, just for a while.
There was a fire in the camp. The fire was not big at first, but then it started to shoot into the sky.
The men who woke up rushed to the stables one after another. They opened the fence. Unexpectedly, once the horses, which had been frightened by the gunfire, saw an escape route, they swarmed out and couldn't stop them.
So the Mongolian camp that stretched for ten miles erupted with loud gunshots, shouts of killing, fires shooting into the sky, war horses running around, and ghosts crying and gods howling.
Li RuofanComing out of the big tent wearing armor, the guards immediately gathered around. She stroked the black hair on the back of her head and tied them together. Then she said coldly: "Where is the Ming Emperor? Don't let him escape."
"Great Khan, we have ordered people to take him away. He can't run away."
Li Ruofan gritted his silver teeth, pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and said: "Quick, don't worry about the horses anymore, gather the troops in the northeast, and order everyone to move closer there!"
Her decision was correct. He personally led hundreds of people to the northeast, and then ordered people to blow the trumpets there.
The panicked Meng people heard the horn sound and moved closer to the source of the sound.
The Mongolians finally managed to regain their footing and began to counterattack.
This battle lasted for a full hour. After an hour, the shouts of killing gradually disappeared. The Ming army on the other side also heard the sound of bugles, and the unexpectedly attacking troops gradually retreated.
On the other side, a new army crossed the other side and was responsible for responding. The remaining troops began to board the ship. The Mongolian army tried to intercept, but was beaten back.
In fact, the Mongols were already exhausted, and they really had no energy to pursue them at this time. After making a show, they had to open their eyes and watch these people return to the other side safely.
The camp was in a mess, and what was even more frightening was that many war horses were lost, and several warehouses for storing grain and horse materials were also destroyed by fire. This time, the Mongolian army suffered heavy losses.
Li Ruofan's mood has reached the extreme. He has been forced to enter the border without any defeat, but this time it was a complete defeat. When daylight came, someone had already counted the losses. There were more than 20,000 horses lost, and more than 20,000 dead and injured. They lost 20,000, but the Ming army's losses were not much, leaving only two to three thousand corpses.
A complete failure.
Li Ruofan's eyes were dark, looking at the tired and tired Mongolian generals who were hanging up under the tent. She gritted her teeth and said: "I ordered to evacuate to Jixian immediately and carry out reorganization there. Now that I have entered the pass, I must not be empty-handed." And back."
The Mongolian army couldn't bear it anymore, so they immediately broke out of camp and headed towards Jixian County in a mighty manner.
There is not much joy in the New Army side. Everyone knows that although this battle was won, it was just a fluke. There may not be a second time if there is a first time.
Liu Chengfeng made a decisive decision and decided to go north to confront the Mongolian army.
One hundred thousand new troops, together with more than two hundred thousand soldiers and horses from various ministries, cautiously marched towards Jixian.
Liu Chengfeng¡¯s goal is very clear. Now that he is here, he must leave some memories before leaving. Liu Chengfeng will not give up until he beats them completely.
The mighty army began to deploy on the front line of Jixian County, and the Mongolian army obviously needed to recuperate and began to purge. Both sides were full of energy and waiting for the opportunity.
A great victory finally boosted the morale of the army and the people. At least the people in the capital were stabilized. However, the war was imminent and no one dared to take it lightly, especially Liu Chengfeng, who had not slept well in the past few days.
The Ming army in Ji County began to strengthen the defenses of nearby fortresses and towns, dug trenches and laid traps everywhere.
¡°Obviously, this move means that Liu Chengfeng has only one purpose, and he intends to spend his time here.
It was July in the blink of an eye, and the weather was so hot that the Ming troops behind the fortifications couldn't bear it. They all took off their clothes and hid in the shade to enjoy the coolness. The military attach¨¦s wouldn't care too much about this kind of thing. After all, the brothers worked hard, and even if they were enemies, When the army invades, there are scouts who are the first to report back. A sneak attack in broad daylight is a joke.
Naturally, the scouts were released day and night. The armies of both sides were now engaged in battles between the scouts. The vast plains were filled with teams of rangers and scouts, chasing and fleeing everywhere. The daily death toll of the scouts was There were about thirty or forty people.
At the beginning, the scouts of the Ming army were far inferior to the rangers of the Mongolian army, and they could only be passively beaten. But gradually they began to learn better, and after mastering the tactics of the Mongols, they began to win or lose.
But at this time, Li Ruofan began to be confused.
¡°This Liu Chengfeng, is he really not in a hurry at all? He seems to be leisurely and at ease. Does he want to confront himself for the rest of his life?
There is a conspiracy.
Li Ruofan wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to defeat the Ming army, but she soon gave up the idea. In more than a month, the Ming army had built an impregnable area on the outskirts of Jixian County. It is said that they even hired many merchants to help. , they were building forts and digging traps everywhere. In addition, more and more Ming troops gathered here. At the beginning, there were 300,000. With the gathering of King Qin¡¯s troops from various places, they were everywhere within a hundred miles. Campsite.
Although the battle does not depend on the number of people on both sides, it depends on who has more elite soldiers.Attacking the crowd is always the Mongolian's strength, but this is based on the opponent's coach being relatively stupid. If the opponent's coach is smart, they may not let you take advantage of it.
At this time, Li Ruofan has already felt that the current situation is quite tasteless. It is a pity to throw away the tasteless food. After finally entering the customs, he is not willing to go back without bringing some souvenirs. But if the stalemate continues, the daily consumption of so many people and horses is too much, and the longer they stay, the greater the consumption. It is in vain and there is really not much meaning.
