Last time, Xiao Zhengtai Yangliu was on his way to the Xishan Hunting Ground with a group of top officials in Chang'an City.

At the same time, Lu Ya'er and Wang Lewei led their men and horses to gradually approach Shengjing, the so-called capital of the barbarians.

"It seems that the Tartars are afraid of being beaten by us, and they dare not come to fight with us in the field. But this move of their fortification is really too bad for us. Fortunately, Mr. Lu, you found a large amount of grain in that cellar just now. Otherwise, we might be wiped out this time. Wang Lewei rode on the horse and looked at Lu Yaer's side face and sighed.

The reason why Lu Ya'er dared to instigate Wang Lewei to go deep into the hinterland of the barbarians to kill people and set fires was not only because of the high force value of herself and Xiao Mingyue, but also because of the large amount of food hoarded in her storage equipment. Although Wang Lewei and his 1,000 men and horses tried their best to destroy the food and seeds that could not be carried everywhere, there were always some that could not be destroyed in a short time. Lu Ya'er took the opportunity to put it in her storage equipment in case she needed it.

"This is all General Wang's blessings, and even the will of heaven is on the general's side." Lu Ya'er replied with a smile.

"I feel that God's love for me lies in being able to get help from my husband at the beginning of the expedition." Wang Lewei sighed heartily. I don't know what the young general, who was disguised as a man, thought of it, and pretended to enjoy the scenery on the side of the road to hide his peachy complexion.

"Report-" said a loud report from a man who rode his horse to the front at night, "according to the prisoners we have captured, it is possible that in the near future the enemy will lead the main force back to the outside of the pass, and fight the inside and outside of the Tartar Gate that remains behind. Trying to destroy us. ”

Although the number of people in Wang Lewei's department is small, it has caused huge losses to the Tartars in just over ten days. Not to mention the loss of people and property, the most important thing is that the common people of the barbarians doubted the ability of their Great Khan to rule. Every year the Great Khan, you lead the bravest warriors to provoke the **** kingdom. Now it's good, the **** kingdom can beat us to the ground with just one capable cavalry. If we send ten times as many men, will we still have a way to live?

The suffering of people does not suffer from few, but suffers from unevenness. Although every time the barbarians entered the Central Plains, they were able to loot a large number of people's property, gold, silver and jewelry, but only some of the high-ranking nobles and lords benefited. At most, the common people were able to get some rations, as well as a small number of Han Chinese slaves. If your son-in-law was injured during the expedition, or lost his life. The compensation received is in no way enough to compensate for the loss of the entire family. So much so that the common people are more or less resistant to the routine expedition every year.

"According to the information collected by Tanma these days, it is preliminarily determined that this Ming cavalry is led by a reward named Wang Lewei. He served as a person from Taiyuan, Shanxi, and the son of Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Taiyuan. Since childhood, he has liked archery and horse riding, and he always thinks of going into battle to kill the enemy and make contributions. Immortal achievements. Now it seems. The young general almost fulfilled his oath..."On the city walls. The Han official reported.

"Humph! If it weren't for the Han people who possessed the Heavenly Thunder Cannon, how would we have let them enter a no-man's land, burning and looting around Shengjing City. Now the Great Khan returned to the outside of the division with the power of great victory. We must let these arrogant people never come back! "Your barbarian leader gritted his teeth and said angrily. When the cavalry units he had left behind were repeatedly routed, he was forced to send a letter to his father asking for help. In the eyes of this Belle Lord, just more than 1,000 people made him clumsy, which can be described as a great shame in his life. Now he is still pulling his father's hind legs, if he can't destroy this Ming army, I'm afraid that even his inheritance will be threatened.

"What is worrying now is that this unit has an amazing power of thunder cannons, and can quickly maneuver with the cavalry. I am afraid that if they fire a few cannons at the Shengjing city wall from a distance and blow up several towers, the morale of the warriors will fall again. The Han official worried.

"Oh no, just now I reported that the Ming cavalry had approached a hundred miles away. What shall we do if they lurk under the city in the starry night? The barbarian leader asked anxiously.

"Lord Belle is not worried. The castle we built outside the city could prevent the Ming army from attacking. Once they are discovered, we can scatter the cavalry in the city. As long as our team does not gather together, we will not be afraid of the power of thunder and artillery one day..."

A hundred miles away, in the camp of Wang Lewei's department.

"Mr. Lu, is it a bit risky for us to move into the main force to meet the enemy chieftain? You must know that there are more than 70,000 horses, and if we are not careful, we will fall into a situation from which we will never recover. Wang Lewei said worriedly.

"Has General Wang forgotten our guerrilla warfare methods? Now that I have broken through the realm in battle, the range of the Heavenly Thunder has exceeded five miles. We can order the main force of the army to lie in ambush on favorable terrain, and then do this..."Lu Ya'er said mysteriously about her plan.

Feeling the tingling sensation of the hot air in Mr. Landing's mouth spraying onto his ears, Wang Lewei's ears couldn't help but be stained with redness, and then the flush gradually spread to the entire cheek.

The Khan of the Barbarians has had a lot of troubles lately. First of all, his descendants were severely damaged by a strange team, losing more than half of their men and horses, and almost losing all the looted property and population. Fortunately, the team then disappeared.

Later, after careful investigation hidden in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, it was learned that this group of men and horses was led by Wang Lewei, the son of Wang Pu, the general soldier of Taiyuan. Fortunately, although the Ming Emperor was full of praise for Wang Lewei's achievements, he did not give a substantial reward. Therefore, it is possible that this army did not contribute to the work, and temporarily hid somewhere to rest.

However, just three days earlier, the barbarian khan had received an urgent letter from his own son, who had stayed in Shengjing, claiming that a cavalry force of 1,000 men had been killing people and setting fire to his base camp outside the pass, burning and looting as if no one had entered a no-man's land. Most importantly, the son also mentioned in the letter a powerful weapon used by this army, the Sky Thunder Cannon. It is said that this powerful artillery can attack fortified strongholds or densely populated barracks miles away.

The most important thing is that the kind of heavenly thunder cannon that the son claimed in the letter is the kind of mysterious weapon that caused his descendants to suffer heavy losses. According to the survivors' descriptions, the oil used in this thunder cannon may have been a powerful flowering projectile, which could be a large explode when exploded. Nowadays, this kind of heavenly thunder cannon has not yet been popularized in the Ming army. If you wait until that day, I am afraid that the foundation that I have worked so hard to build may be ruined. Therefore, this time, the main personnel of that unit must be captured alive in order to dig out the method of making the heavenly thunder cannon from their mouths. It would be nice if a few Sky Thunder Cannons could be captured. (To be continued.) )
