Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There is no problem with Zhu Zhanji ordering Zhang Fu to withdraw his troops.  If he had another opponent, he would have asked Zhang Fu to hold off the enemy at Daxing, while he would quickly move south and join forces with Zhang Fu to attack from a pinch.  After all, Tongzhou is not far from Daxing, and the army can arrive in one day.  Normally speaking, with Daxing's complete defense system, the 70,000-strong army can survive for a day But the opponent is Wang Xian!  How could Zhu Zhanji dare to use common sense to judge that evildoer who wielded soldiers like a god and was invincible?  He didn't believe that others could break through the Daxing defense line in one day, but if it was Wang Xian, he couldn't help but not believe it.  Today, His Highness the Crown Prince has reached a point where he cannot afford to lose. He does not dare to place his hopes on anyone or take any risks. He can only concentrate all the troops and horses in his own hands and crush them with absolute military superiority.  Conspiracy and conspiracy to suppress Wang Xian.  One force can bring down ten!  When he learned that Wang Xian appeared in Yongding River and led an army of 50,000 to the north, Zhu Zhanji was so calm that it was scary. He said to Yang Rong on the side: "The moment of decisive battle is coming." Yang Rong nodded and said solemnly:  "The army from Liaodong also arrived in Tongzhou in time. It seems that God is on the side of the Zhu family after all!" "Of course!" Zhu Zhanji raised his head proudly, glanced at the city of Tongzhou where the battle was still going on, and snorted coldly.  Said: "It's tasteless" "It's indeed useless" Yang Rong nodded and sighed.  Ever since it was known that Wang Xian was not in the city, the importance of Tongzhou City suddenly dropped. After all, even if the city was captured, the defenders could still set fire to burn food, but they would still get nothing.  But we can¡¯t leave it alone No one will forget how terrifying Xu Huaiqing¡¯s five thousand cavalry were.  There are more than 10,000 elite cavalry in the city!  "I give you 30,000 troops. You don't need to attack the city. You just need to stop them from leaving the city." Zhu Zhanji gave a simple order.  "Thirty thousand soldiers and horses" When Yang Rong thought about it, Xu Huaiqing killed all his 90,000 soldiers and horses, seven in and seven out, and 30,000 soldiers and horses wanted to stop the cavalry in the city. Isn't that fanciful?  "Don't worry, Dongchang will help you." Zhu Zhanji said coldly again.  Yang Rong immediately stopped talking, and couldn't help but feel sad. It was really embarrassing for the dignified imperial master to use such a despicable method.  "Right now, as long as Wang Xian can be eliminated, I don't mind being infamous for all eternity!" Zhu Zhanji seemed to be excusing Yang Rong, but also seemed to be defending himself Wang Xian's army crossed the Daxing defense line, but it was still unhurried.  Xu's advance northward.  There were so many government and military scouts along the way that they seemed to be lining the streets to welcome them.  Later, thousands of cavalry also joined the onlookers, monitoring every move of his army.  Wang Xian, however, ignored those trash fishes at all, letting the army walk, stop, eat, and drink when it was time.  Until the next day, when the army arrived somewhere between Tongzhou and Beijing, no enemy dared to challenge.  A person's intimidation power can reach this level, which is enough to make him proud for five hundred years.  What made the soldiers confused was that their coach's expression became more solemn, and the sadness on his face lingered, as if something was sad.  The atmosphere in the entire army also became solemn. No one dared to laugh or even whisper to each other.  The army marched silently to a hillside. Wang Xian reined in his horse, glanced at a Jin Yiwei beside him, and asked: "Is this here?" The Jin Yiwei nodded with tears in his eyes: "Yes, these are General Xu and the others.  The place where the final battle will take place!¡± Erhei and others on the side finally understood ¡°Let¡¯s set up camp here,¡± Wang Xian moved his lips a few times and ordered in a deep voice: ¡°Search carefully for every remains¡± Five  Ten thousand troops were stationed around the hillside.  Then, the generals personally led their men and looked around inch by inch for the remains of the fallen soldiers.  Wang Xian simply did not have the courage to face those warriors sleeping in the withered yellow grass, for fear of seeing their unblinking expressions.  He could never forgive himself for that decision So he sat on the hillside and waited for the results of the search without saying a word.  Not long after, Erhei came over and reported: "Sir, one hundred and seven bodies have been found, and General Xu has also been found" Wang Xian covered his face with his hands, and after a while he raised his head, his eyes red.  He supported his knees, stood up with difficulty, and walked heavily down the hillside.  There, lying quietly, the one hundred and seven warriors Erhei sighed and followed closely.  Because at the same time he shot Xu Huaiqing, Yang Rong received news of the accident in Tongzhou. He had no time to clean up the battlefield, so he left with the army in a hurry.  These one hundred and seven warriors did not become props for the enemy to show off their military exploits. They all left their corpses intact, which is considered a blessing among misfortunes AlthoughHei and others did not know the other soldiers except Xu Huaiqing, but they found them one by one without any difficulty, because every warrior's body was full of long arrows.  The clusters of black and white arrow feathers trembled slightly in the cold wind, like flowers of heroic souls blooming for the warriors.  Wang Xian finally stood in front of Xu Huaiqing. Seeing the eternal smile on his face, which clearly showed satisfaction and relief, Wang Xian finally couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears!  He hugged Xu Huaiqing tightly in his arms and burst into tears Hearing the coach's sad cry, the soldiers of the three armies couldn't help but shed tears. Although they could not feel the pain, everyone was still deeply shocked by this scene.   The officers and cavalry in the distance looked at this scene in amazement, wondering what happened to Wang Xian and the others After crying bitterly, Wang Xian personally pulled out the long arrows all over Xu Huaiqing's body, and wiped them carefully for him.  Get rid of the dirty blood on your body and put on a brand new shirt.  Erhei, Deng Xiaoxian and others also took it upon themselves to sort out the remains of the remaining 106 soldiers.  Then, at the place where these 107 soldiers died heroically, Wang Xian held a simple mourning ceremony for them.  Facing the officers and soldiers of the three armies, Wang Xian personally told the causes and consequences of Xu Huaiqing's sacrifice.  In the cold wind, his sad voice echoed in the ears of every soldier: "We can stand here today and fight for the final victory all because of the sacrifices of these people! No one asked them to do this, and no one is qualified.  Asked them, but they still sacrificed their precious lives without hesitation, building a bridge to victory for us! " "Their heroic sacrifice makes me feel guilty for the rest of my life, because they should not die here!  They died fighting foreign enemies on the battlefield to protect their country and their people! That is the true destination of men!¡± ¡°But they have to fight to the death because some people are unwilling to allow us to exist between heaven and earth!  People would rather collude with foreigners and put the expeditionary army into desperation than allow anyone to threaten their status! Should those people be superior? Should they kill us for them when they need us?  Fighting with blood, when not necessary, we will kill the birds and kill the dogs! Even our families will be implicated! " "This is why we are fighting here, we want to save the lives of our parents, wives and children!  Fight! Fight for your own dignity! We are also fighting for the people of Ming Dynasty! Because we will never agree that someone can betray their country and nation without being punished!  , trampling on other people's status, life and death at will! We will never allow us to resist when others are unfair and persecuting us! We will never allow these scum to continue to destroy our country! " "We will never agree!  I will never agree!" The soldiers' blood boiled when they heard this, and they felt that the father-in-law had said what they had been holding in their hearts for so many years but didn't know how to express it!  Without anyone leading them, they almost shouted in unison!  "Let us end this damn war! Reshape our country! Let the land of Ming Dynasty never be war-free! Let our descendants be free from fear and despair, be able to display their ambitions to their fullest, and be able to look up to the heavens and nobles! No one will do it because of  There is no need to bow down and be a proud citizen of a great country!" "Long live! Long live! Long live!" The soldiers' whole bodies were trembling, and their souls were about to jump out of their chests. They could only express themselves with these simplest and most powerful words.  How excited they are at the moment!  "In this way, we will live up to the heroic spirit of the martyrs! Let us decide in a battle!" Wang Xian used all his strength to issue the order for a decisive battle to his soldiers!  "It's decided in one battle! It's decided in one battle!" The response of mountains and tsunamis swept across the world!  The officers' cavalry and horses in the distance were so startled that they screamed wildly, which spread to the army camp further away, frightening Zhu Zhanji who was lecturing the generals  Hearing that Wang Xian was holding a funeral for Xu Huaiqing and others, the generals around Zhu Zhanji sneered and said: "They are really not particular about holding a funeral before the war!" Zhu Zhanji was silent for a moment with a cold face, and then continued to arrange the arrangements.  Let¡¯s make arrangements for tomorrow¡¯s battle.  "In this battle, our army has a total of 200,000 troops participating in the battle, including 60,000 cavalry and 140,000 infantry. The enemy has a total of 50,000 troops, including 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry. Our army is several times larger in both infantry and cavalry.  Enemy!" The generals obeyed the order solemnly, but no one felt relaxed because their enemy was Wang Xian.  "The enemy's main threat comes from their 20,000 cavalry. But tomorrow, our army will adopt the easy-first-then-difficult tactic to attack their infantry with all our strength!" Zhu Zhanji said in a deep voice: "Once the support of the infantry is lost,  , the enemy cavalry will be unable to fight alone and will no longer pose a threat to us!" Everyone!Everyone nodded, this is indeed the most pragmatic and safest tactic. Although it cannot guarantee the complete annihilation of the enemy, it can ensure that victory will not be lost!  "To ensure victory, tomorrow's battle must be coordinated by infantry and cavalry. When the infantry camp enters the fighting position, the cavalry will launch an assault! At the same time, the infantry of each battalion must follow up quickly. They must engage the enemy as soon as possible and encircle the enemy infantry as soon as possible!" Zhu  Zhanji continued to speak in a deep voice.  "Yes!" All the distinguished generals accepted the order in unison.  "I believe that at this point, no one dares to take it lightly. Therefore, I won't say anything careless." After laying out the tactics, Zhu Zhanji's majestic eyes swept over the crowd and said: "Please remember, we must form a joint force.  Twist the 200,000 troops into one fist and hit them with one fist! We must not spread them out and give the enemy a chance to defeat them." "Yes!" The noble generals responded again.  After all the instructions were given, Zhu Zhanji still felt something stuffed in his chest, his eyes softened, and he whispered: "You will live and die with me tomorrow, and I will share wealth with you tomorrow" "  We will fight to the death for His Highness!" The generals responded excitedly to their Highness.
