On the night of February 13th, when the emperor and his ministers expressed their views on the situation in the northwest, a war was brewing.
In the Jianzi'ao earthen fortress, which is more than 20 miles away from Piantou Pass, there are dilapidated ruins and broken walls. Three thousand cavalry led by Wang Yue are making final preparations.
Behind Wang Yue, Chen Rui and Chen Xun were missing. There were only a group of soldiers personally dispatched by Zhu Feng and Wang Yue. They were listening to the secrets discovered by Ye Busu. Battle report in Guancheng.
"The Tatars had already entered the city gates in batches before sunset, and there were still large groups of Tatars looting everywhere, going east and south for hundreds of miles. Our military movement "The grain convoy has suffered heavy losses."
After Wang Yue listened to the report on the current battle situation, it was as if the money, grain, materials, and even the people lost were not his own, and he did not feel distressed at all.
After the final mobilization meeting, Wang Yue decided to send troops directly after the soldiers rehydrated.
Wang Yue looked at Zhu Feng who was sitting on a stone in a daze and said, "Zhijie, are you afraid?"
Zhu Feng raised his head and glanced at Wang Yue. Looks disgraced.
Just two hours ago, this group of people pretended to be the cavalry escorting the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty. When they were attacked by a small group of Tatars, the cavalry "collapsed at the first touch" and took away dozens of carts of grain and food. The supplies and other supplies were thrown to the Tatars, who probably numbered only two to three hundred people. In order to fully demonstrate the incompetence of the Ming Dynasty's border troops, Wang Yue also let these people flee all the way, even panicking.
In this case, Zhu Feng saw the Tatar himself for the first time
He was really frightened.
He was also thinking, I came to the northwest to do military service, why did I feel something was wrong? He said he wanted to pretend to be a grandson first and then an uncle, but he was afraid that the result would not be satisfactory.
The routine is a bit deep.
"It's not bad."
When Zhu Feng spoke, his voice was very hoarse. He had been angry for the past two days. Today, the northwest wind was blowing all the way. It was dusty in the northwest in February. , he almost forgot what the petty bourgeoisie life in the capital was like.
Wang Yue smiled and said, "No wonder Mr. Zhang admires you. It seems that you have the qualifications to become a famous general."
After hearing this, Zhu Feng blinked and seemed to have not recovered. .
Forget it, I have the qualifications to be a famous general. Except for my ancestor Zhu Neng, no one has this potential.
I am trying to trick a three-year-old child
< p>You, Wang Weining, have been leading troops for so many years. Have you ever seen a famous general who was so frightened that he almost wet his pants before the war? Are you telling the truth"I will give you five hundred cavalry today to serve as the right army. There is a problem in blocking the eastward advance of the Tatars in the city." Wang Yue also sent Zhu Feng a wartime mission.
Zhu Feng became anxious when he heard this and said quickly, "Wang Junmen, you see, it is my first time on the battlefield and I am often inexperienced."
Wang Yue directly extended his hand to interrupt Hearing Zhu Feng's words, he said, "Don't be humble. You have such ability. Even if you are afraid, you should think about the five hundred cavalry you lead. They all regardYou set an example. "
Zhu Feng said, "Why don't Wang Junmen use Uncle Pingjiang and the others?"
"Uncle Pingjiang knows the rules, do you know where Chen Liangjiu has gone with him? The men and horses fled westward for an estimated two hundred miles. Although he was timid during the battle, he was very fast when running away. He marched one hundred and sixty miles in one day and one night, and he had no problem at all. Do you think this kind of person can be useful in such a tough battle?"
Zhu Feng thought for a while.
Ping Jiang Bo Chen Rui is more "aware of current affairs", I knew I couldn't beat them, so I was so scared that I led my troops and ran away. I'm still here waiting to die
There are tens of thousands of elite Tatar cavalry in the city, so I was asked to lead 500 troops to guard one side
This is a strategy that people can come up with
Even if you ask me to die, can you give me a different way to die?
Wang Yue patted Zhu Feng on the shoulder. He smiled and said, "If you want to establish unparalleled achievements, you must have some courage. Don't forget that we have the mighty gunpowder given by His Majesty, as well as Mr. Zhang's magical plan. The soldiers are united as one, how can we be defeated? Get ready and prepare, I You will have the most elite men under your command follow you, and they will show you the way. "
After Zhu Feng heard these words, he suddenly felt a little boosted in confidence.
But after thinking about it again.
Why do these words sound so familiar< /p>
It seems that every time Zhang Zhou draws a cake for him, he always has this tone. You two, young and old, like to fool people like this
But there is nothing you can do about it.
Now he doesn't even know where to run.
He's on the pirate ship.
Zhu Feng felt sad, but he still went to assemble the army and prepare to set off. /p>
"Uncle, why did you transfer the most elite soldiers and horses to Zhu Zhijie? He is only responsible for the east road. After the Tatars were attacked, it would be difficult for the Tatars to extend from the east road to the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Feng felt that he had been treated badly.
But Wang Yue's direct subordinates felt that Wang Yue was too partial to Zhu Feng.
Zhu Feng was guarding the east road. A dozen miles further north, there are a series of Ming Dynasty earthen forts, and reinforcements from all walks of life can arrive at any time.
The situation of the Tatars is unknown when they encounter a night attack. Even if we break through, we can't run towards the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty.
Wang Yue said, "It makes sense for me to arrange this. Fighting bloody battles and making meritorious deeds depends on this time. "
For Wang Yue, obtaining military merit is one aspect, but after obtaining military merit, asking for rewards based on merit is another aspect.
If Zhu Feng is not "served" Beautiful, how can I have the nerve to let Zhang Zhou speak for me and get the title of Prince Weining back?
Wang Yue knows how to fight and is also a good person.
Even in this case. No matter how great the results of the battle are, as long as the civil servants are not satisfied, it will be difficult for him to get his title back.
But if the results are mediocre, as long as Zhang Zhou and others give him a few words in front of the emperor. Say it, NajueThe bit is back.
Is this a war?
This is playing politics
If you don’t want to deceive others, you can’t bring too many soldiers and horses, and you can’t transfer too many people to Zhu Feng. Otherwise, Wang Yue really planned to let Zhu Feng take the largest number of soldiers and horses to the least dangerous place to pick up leaks, or even let him serve as Zhu Feng's deputy general.
What kind of reputation?
Give me the title of Lord Weining, and I will be your grandson.
The nights in Piantouguan are very noisy.
The Tatars also sent several waves of people to explore the city fortress, and even sent a small group of troops to attack the city twice, and cooperated with various troops to pursue the Ming Dynasty deserters. The Tatars achieved rich results. The main force of Tartar, especially the Huoshi headquarters, finally determined that Ming Dynasty had abandoned Pianguan and ran away.
That is to say, before nightfall that day, Huoshai personally led his troops to the side pass.
The robbery went very smoothly
The soldiers saw nearly mountains of food in the city, as well as various siege baggage that they had not had time to take away. Relying solely on intimidation, the Ming soldiers surrendered the city obediently, and the Tatars felt proud.
But while they were looting, someone caught the sentry left behind by the Ming Dynasty in the city and seized a very strange "weapon".
The number one general of Fire Sieve, Liback personally reported to Fire Sieve.
After looking at things through the fire, I didn’t understand what was going on.
"Grand Master, there may be instability outside the city. The Ming Dynasty army may come back at any time. Wang Weining may also be in Xuanfu Town. We should send all the troops back to the pass."
Li Buck was still a little apprehensive when he mentioned Wang Yue.
Huo Si was just the clan leader of the Meng Guol Jin tribe, not a grand master. But last year, the eleventh year of Hongzhi, Huo Si led his troops into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and plundered the Datong line. In order to show his reliance on the fire sieve, Dayan Khan specially appointed him with the title of honorary grand master.
The year when Dayan Khan and Huoshai really turned against each other and had a decisive battle was the third year of Zhengde. Before that, Huoshai was nominally a minister of Dayan Khan, and the two sides had many mutual interests.
As the evil god most feared by the Ming Dynasty’s border troops, Huo Si is not only brave and adept at fighting on the battlefield, but also has extraordinary strategies. He has been influenced by the Central Plains culture since he was a child and is very familiar with the art of war. He is decisive Realizing that this empty city was like a tomb.
"Second order, all troops and horses will be stationed out of the city tonight, starting from the Huile tribe, and then leave the city in order."
Huo Si personally led this time, although it was the main force of the Mengol Jin tribe. , but in fact there are many small tribes in the grassland that are attached to the Mengoljin tribe. These tribes often charge forward when fighting tough battles, but when reaping the results, they have to stay behind.
Hui Lebu was the last to enter Guancheng. It was less than half an hour into the city, so the things they grabbed should be the least.
But when you leave the city, you have to take the lead when you return to Lebu..
Liback was puzzled and said, "There is a city wall, but we have to be stationed outside the city."
Huo Si did not explain much to Liback, and only ordered Jean to execute the military order.
Midnight.
When the Huile tribe had left the city and completed their encampment, and some of the following troops were leaving the city one after another, there was a roar that was almost shaking the mountains, just like thunder on the ground, breaking the tranquility of the night.
The city wall in the southeast of Piantouguan City was blown down directly after this sound.
This was the first time that yellow gunpowder, which could even collapse reinforced concrete during blasting in later generations, showed its power on the battlefield.
Just when the Tatar tribes were not sure of the situation, successive explosions rang out in the city.
"It's early"
When Wang Yue heard the loud noise, the soldiers and horses were still four or five miles away from the city pass.
"The order was given to assault the chariots and horses without stopping."
In addition to the cavalry, Wang Yue's army also had some chariots transporting artillery and muskets. wait.
In the battle to defend the capital after the Battle of Tumubao, the power of firearms was truly demonstrated during the Ming Dynasty’s battle with the Tatars. Since then, the Ming Dynasty has been using firearms to deal with the Tatars. Sharp weapons, firearms have improved very rapidly in recent decades.
The Ming Dynasty's cavalry quickly charged forward in three groups amidst the background sounds of explosions and roars throughout the Piantou Pass.
In addition to the five hundred men and horses on the left and right sides, the two thousand Chinese troops and horses led by Wang Yue went straight to the direction of the Huile tribe that had been stationed out of the city.
At this time, Huo Si was still in the city. He just felt that there was danger in the city.
Since we are here to rob, we naturally want to return with a full load. I expect that there will be no problem in a few hours. After all, the retreating troops of the Ming Dynasty have no signs of bluffing to lure the enemy deeper. The Ming Dynasty cannot Under such circumstances, he can hide a military force that can compete with his own troops
But when he witnessed it with his own eyes, the gate tower of Piantou Pass was soaring into the sky. It collapsed in the flames, dozens of tribal warriors stationed on the tower were blown into the sky, and the walls of the urn city collapsed with a sound
He realized this.
It seems that the Ming Dynasty does not need to ambush many troops to confront him head-on.
