Next chapter
Liu Bowen didn't know why Tang Dou, who was highly respected by Zhu Yuanzhang, would leave at such a critical time, but Zhu Yuanzhang knew it, he knew that Tang Xian was going to the upper realm to discuss a plan, if it weren't for Liu Bowen sitting aside, I am afraid that Tang Xian would disappear directly in front of his eyes.
Tang Dou really went to ask for an idea, Jia Xu's old fox and Wu Zhen were still waiting for him in Yecheng Jincheng Marquis's Mansion.
Although Tang Dou has been here with Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time, for Jia Xu and Wu Zhen, Tang Dou has just left for a short time.
Similarly, Tang Dou came back from Jia Xu and Wu Zhen to ask for a plan, which was only a blink of an eye for Zhu Yuanzhang and the others, and it seemed that Tang Dou had just turned out of the back hall.
And Tang Dou, who walked back again, was already full of red light and full of confidence, as for this red light, it was caused by accompanying Jia Xu and Wu Zhen to drink two glasses.
Tang Dou walked to the sand table and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Pass the order, the city gate is wide open, some empty city illusions, let this enemy army enter the city, close the door and beat the dogs." ”
Hearing Tang Dou's order, Liu Bowen, who was watching coldly, couldn't help but show a little approval on his face.
Wang Baobao's plan has been deep, 30,000 troops came, the cavalry were all deceived by the previous plan, Tang He pulled out Wang Baobao's empty camp, it is expected that this army of soldiers and horses coming to Haozhou must be the infantry in Wang Baobao's army, it should be thought that Haozhou is already an empty city, want to monopolize the first merit of capturing the city.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not hesitate to convey Tang Dou's order, and the 10,000 defenders who stayed in Haozhou immediately died down, and even the sound of drums in the city stopped.
An hour later, Dalu Huachi led 10,000 soldiers and horses in Wang Baobao's army and finally arrived at the city of Haozhou.
Daru Huachi in Wang Baobao's army is named Narisong, and he is a cautious guy by nature. The soldiers came to the city, that day Song saw that the gate of Haozhou City was wide open, and the city was lifeless, but he was still not at ease, he ordered the army to rest in place, and sent a sentry into the city to investigate the truth.
The 10,000 infantry who had traveled a hundred miles were already exhausted, and when they heard that day Matsu ordered them to rest, they immediately fell to the ground, and some even snored directly.
In addition to the strong city walls, the ancient city also has a significant feature, that is, it is large. In addition to people's settlements, there are generally a large number of farmland and other livelihood facilities in the city. This is set up in case it is besieged by the enemy, and the defender can also be self-sufficient and fight a war of attrition with the enemy. The battle of Xiangfan between the Mongols and the Southern Song Dynasty, the Mongols besieged Xiangfan for six years before they could break the city.
Although Haozhou City is not as vast as Xiangyang Fancheng, it is more than 20 miles around the city wall, and it is very easy for such a large city to hide tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
The sentinels sent by Risong saw that the city did not even hear the sound of chickens and dogs barking, and there was not a trace of light coming through, and the streets were full of all kinds of household goods abandoned by people.
The sentry knight complained in his heart that he was timid and afraid of things, and ran back to talk nonsense after a casual turn.
On that day, Song heard that Haozhou was indeed an empty city, and he was overjoyed, and with an order, the army drove into the city.
That Risong had just led his soldiers and horses into the urn city, and suddenly there was a rush of war drums on the city tower, and countless torches were instantly lit.
That day Song was shocked, and hurriedly turned the horse's head and shouted: "Zhongji, retreat quickly." ”
With a loud bang, the jack of the city gate fell violently, and I don't know how many Yuan troops were crushed to death under the gate.
The urn city is one of the main defense facilities in the construction of ancient cities, which can strengthen the defense of the city gate.
As the name suggests, the shape of the urn city is like an urn, and it is difficult to escape if you fall into it and catch turtles in the urn.
It's a pity that the urn city of Haozhou City is not so wide, and it can't fit all the troops of Narisong, and when the Broken Dragon Gate fell, there were still three or four thousand soldiers and horses outside the city who didn't have time to enter the city.
If all the Yuan troops entered the city, it is estimated that the ambush set by Zhu Yuanzhang in advance would be discovered by the Yuan army, and they had no choice but to start it in advance.
And the most unlucky was Na Risong, as soon as he entered the urn city, Zhu Yuanzhang's ambush army launched an attack and trapped him in the urn city.
Countless ambushes appeared on the four walls of the urn city, hundreds of torches were thrown from the city walls, and those who were discarded in the urn city were in a mess with a bang, and it turned out that they had already been drenched with fire oil.
The thousands of Yuan troops in the urn city panicked, they knew that if they were trapped in the urn city, even if they had their wings on their bodies, they would never be able to escape, this was a battle with no hope of victory.
Nari Song's face had already lost its blood, he hurriedly threw away the blade in his hand, raised his arm and shouted at the ambush soldiers on the wall of the urn city: "Don't let go of the arrows, we surrender." ”
"Yes, yes, we surrender."
Even Daru Huachi surrendered, how could those Yuan soldiers not know what to do now, and they threw away their blades for a while and fell to their knees.
At this time, the Yuan army that was intercepted outside the city by the Broken Dragon Gate had already been shot back by the random arrows on the city, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was excited, walked to the wall of the urn city with a smile, looked at the Yuan army who was overwhelmed by the black pressure in the urn city, and asked Tang Dou with a smile: "Big brother, what should I do with these Mongolian Tartars?" ”
Tang Dou retracted his gaze, glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said with a dark face: "It's your business, ask me." ”
After that, Tang Dou raised his feet and walked towards the road, Jia Xu and Wu Zhen, the two old foxes, also gave him a series of plans, this strategy was not arranged when it was originally deployed, it was temporarily adjusted by Jia Xu and Wu Zhen according to the changes in the battle situation, for this reason, Jia Xu and Wu Zhen also regretted it for a long time.
After all, no one can predict changes in the battle situation, and a qualified commander must temporarily adjust his strategy and tactics at any time in accordance with the changes that occur on the battlefield.
However, the regrets of Jia Xu and Wu Zhen are not difficult for Tang Dou, he just needs to convey the newly adjusted strategy earlier, this is the prerogative of the gods, and the people in the bureau will think that he has already seen through the heavens.
Seeing Tang Dou leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang showed a cruel smile on his face, and he waved his hand violently at the general who was asking him for instructions on how to deal with these Yuan soldiers in the urn city, and spit out a word viciously: "Kill." ”
Liu Bowen, who was not far from Zhu Yuanzhang's side, couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth a few times.
Those who have achieved great things are all ruthless.
Thousands of Yuan soldiers' lives were only exchanged for the word 'kill' in Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth.
As soon as Tang Dou stepped on the horse road, he heard the dense bowstring tense and screams behind him, he couldn't help but pause, but he only paused, and then took a deep breath and walked off the road. (To be continued.) )
