The moon was full on April 15th. The soldiers who had just crossed the desert ran quickly towards a small river in front of them under the guidance of the scouts.
The shouts sounded, torches were lit, and the soldiers waved their shovels and began to set up camp.
The army armed with flintlock guns crossed the river, and another group of cavalry went away, looking for possible traces of the enemy.
When the moon rose to the middle, the fusiliers on guard ran back and relied on the creek for defense.
Xu Da and Lan Yu were sitting in the camp discussing the military situation. They had slept for two hours before.
"Tang He and the ten thousand people don't know where they are at this time." Lan Yu mentioned another general, Tang He.
Tang He also belonged to the Central Route Army. He detached 5,000 men, all cavalry, and went with Zhang Cundao, the commander of Chuzhou, to attack Yanghe County.
As long as Yang He is defeated, there will be no danger behind Xu Da. The cavalry is fast and highly maneuverable.
"They have been told that the enemy is in danger and the rules are not to fight desperately." Xu Da didn't know Tang He's side either, so he ran to Lingbei.
"Just preserve your strength. If you don't succeed this year, you will have to fight next year." Lan Yu is particularly concerned about having strength now. If you can't defeat him, you don't have to fight.
According to historical time, Tang He and He Zongzhe did not arrive at Lanyu until January. Now we set off early and drove slowly all the way, chasing the Beiyuan army behind us.
After a while, we held the torch again and moved back with the wooden pole between us.
"There is Wang Baobao's army ahead, but when we came out, His Majesty informed him that Wang Baobao's subordinate He Zongzhe was also there, so be careful of being ambushed by him."
The order I received was to quasi-weak attack , it is a good deal to go all out with Bei Yuan.
Seven hundred firecrackers lined up in seven rows, approaching the foot of the mountain step by step. The wooden sticks in front of the firecrackers were clamped under their armpits, and they held torches under their hands.
He Zongzhe is very satisfied with the meat floss, not that it is expensive. The value of meat floss is eighty times that of abnormal military rations, and it is compacted when carried.
Tang He opened a can and divided half of it with He Zongzhe, thinking about how to beat it.
On the same full-moon night, seven thousand cavalrymen set up camp, and Tang He and Wan Chunchun held a meeting.
"What kind of gun is this?"
With an order, seven thousand cavalry and ten thousand horses turned and ran out diagonally, with dust flying.
As expected, we walked back, and the ones below continued to shoot arrows, then moved back seventy steps and stopped.
The fire gun soldiers approached step by step. When we reached the 700th step, we stopped one after another and shouted down the mountain, "Come up and fight. If you don't have the ability, come up and fight."
One by one The fire gun soldier lit the fuse and raised the fire gun diagonally downwards.
"Continue to defend, we have to find a place to shoot the blue jade. The blue jade is almost surrounded by mountains on seven sides, so we are afraid that we will find a breakthrough in a place with many defenders."
In history, when Tang He and He Zongzhe arrived at Yanghe, they were stopped by the Beiyuan army using the terrain. The place was called Duolou Mountain.
“There is a problem in half a month,Once the blue jade is added, there will be no supplies. ”
The place I am now in is the grass that the horse eats, and the food brought by the army is enough. It is all meat floss, and I am very hungry.
Two quarters of an hour ago, I walked down the mountain from Nian Dui saw the dust of the cavalry, and soldiers from the Northern Yuan Dynasty emerged one after another.
Xiao Ming's army did not have binoculars, so they saw a group of people at the bottom of the mountain. As a result, when the team arrived, these people were hiding in front of the rocks. And the other side of the ridge.
"Ah"
Tang He walked around and came to the destination. There were mountains outside, with lots of rocks and loess.
Tang He squinted his eyes, looked around, and ordered, "Follow the plan and withdraw."
Whoosh, whoosh, a bunch of arrows fell. Because the distance was too far, he was condescending. There are also people who are shot.
"The gunmen fired their arrows. "Tang He felt that the position was bad. The handgun soldiers' handguns could fly eight hundred steps after discharging wooden horses and arrows.
"Retreat" After the firegun soldiers finished firing, the leader shouted , the seven hundred people turned around and ran away, and went back to reload their ammunition.
I think it was a good deal to kill a dozen people on the other side. There were casualties on our side, and the fire blunderbuss was really useless before retreating.
"General, what are you going to do?" asked the general next to me.
At the same time, I told my men to "hide, just to take care of us, and the fire soldiers will attack." "Bang bang bang. As the smoke rose and the sound sounded, arrows flew down one after another.
When the people below saw the formation, they also hid and stood up one after another. Some people raised their shields, and no one raised their shields. People bend their bows.
The moon is setting, the sun is rising, and seven thousand cavalry, one man and two horses, are walking through the dew to the nearby Guillotine Mountain.
Cut open a large bag, and a small handful of meat floss will appear behind your eyes. Pinch a little and stuff it into your mouth. Then pinch a little of the dried green onions and dried carrots that you also brought. Drink some water and you will feel full quickly.
Tang He used a telescope to look at it and nodded with satisfaction, "It's a good fight."
"Hidden, our scouts saw us first. "Hehehehe" Wan Chunchun looked at the uninhabited mountain behind and laughed out loud.
"At dawn tomorrow, we will be able to reach Duolingshan Mountain. Beiyuan will definitely rely on the steep mountains to block it, but I know there will be many people hiding under the mountain. ”
“It’s really a roundabout way, it’s just a longer way. "He Zongzhe was also willing to have problems with the cavalry.
After a while, the general ordered, "Take turns to go up the mountain to get water. The people at the bottom of the mountain keep an eye on the nearby areas. If they see the enemy, they will shout immediately. ”
The fire gun soldiers ran back, took the time to charge, dismounted the wooden horse, and then released the arrows.
Even if the enemy releases arrows from the bottom of the mountain, the range of both sides is the same. , Xiao Ming had the advantage.
The Fire Gun soldiers moved back when they saw where the arrow landed. The one closest to them was not even 80 or 70 steps away, and it was close to 70 steps after taking 70 steps. .
When Xu Da talks about the war at hand, his strategy is to proceed slowly and never advance rashly, even if the enemy sends troops to help.
Guarding the mountain is a helpless method. Those who are in front of you are your own territory and will be surrounded.
A dozen people fell down at the foot of the mountain, and none of them were injured.
A mountain range that is continuous and suddenly interrupted is called Sleepy Hollow.
Eight hundred people went up along the flat road, each carrying wooden barrels.
"Shoot arrows!" The generals at the foot of the mountain were obviously going to run up and fight the Ming army, so I shouted.
"Send someone quickly to tell other places that the Ming army's muskets have a very long range, and your bows and arrows can hit it from below. Our muskets can shoot arrows."
Shanxia People were shouting, but no one could make a sound, so they just covered their throats and fell down.
"If you want to go around, you can go around now. You have to see what it's like to go up to Dutou Mountain." Tang He shook his head and planned to leave immediately.
“It’s too far.”
And there are only fourteen Guillotine Mountains over there. They are all rocks, and there is only one way down the mountain.
The general looked at the sun in the world and knew that the stone mountain would be very cold in a while, and there was no water at the bottom of the mountain. He had to go up to see the river.
"General Tang, we are running too slow, it seems like we are deliberately luring you here." He Zongzhe realized that something was right.
Tang He raised his head and looked down, "It's a pity that it's a city wall. If you throw stones up, we can deal with it. We can still eat dry food for a few days."
"Slowly report the news, we want to Go around from the north and tell the people here to block it." The general over there shouted for arrangements.
"Oops"
