The Yan army went south, Li Jinglong's counterattack Beiping military conference was forced to immediately change to meet the Yan king's military conference, the generals brainstormed, after some discussion, Li Jinglong immediately ordered Guo Ying, Wu Jie and others who were now stationed in Baoding and other places to divide into three routes with his troops to attack the Yan king's soldiers and horses. Immediately, Li Jinglong ordered the army to go north, in order to strengthen the momentum, propaganda along the way, the 600,000 army claimed to be one million, and the vanguard officer was Ping Baoer.

Ping Bao'er's father is called Pingding, when Zhu Yuan's cockroach fought in the south and the north, he was appointed as the commander of Jiningwei with merit, and died in battle when attacking Yuan Dadu, Ping Baoer was accepted by Zhu Yuanzhang as a righteous son, renamed Ping'an, inherited his father's position, and was later promoted to Miyun Commander and Governor of the Right Army. This person is a descendant of famous generals like Li Jinglong, but he is brave and good at fighting, which is very different from Li Jinglong's vain reputation.

After he served as the vanguard, he led his men and horses to travel at night, and when he was about to reach the Baigou River, Tanma sent news that King Yan's army was about to arrive. When Ping'an heard this, he immediately stopped the army from advancing. There are about more than 10,000 people in his department, and King Yan has an army of 100,000, so it is not possible to fight hard, but Ping Baoer also knows that although King Yan's army has many cavalry, it is only relative to the Ming army, and there are also a large number of foot soldiers in the Yan army, so the entire army will never gather more than 100,000 people to advance together.

According to this judgment, Ping Bao'er had a plan, rushed to the Baigou River first, and hid the men and horses according to the terrain, and it was not easy for more than 10,000 people to hide their figures. When the Yan army wanted to cross the river along a number of bridges, Ping Bao'er made a trumpet cannon and took the lead in killing the enemy, and the army of the Yan King rushed all the way, expecting the march to be fast, but did not expect that the enemy had already arrived here to ambush, and was caught off guard and had to retreat in a hurry.

Ping Bao'er only knew that this was the vanguard of the Yan army, but he didn't expect that King Yan himself was also in the grass. King Yan marches and fights, a soldier rushes to the front, in fact, this habit is not good, the main generals of the three armies will come to the front line every time they fight, once they encounter an accident, the three armies will collapse without a fight, but this bad habit of King Yan has never been changed in his life.

Seeing the sudden attack of the Ming army, the formation of his army was chaotic and it was not easy to deploy to resist, and seeing the abruptness of the Ming army, he was worried that Li Jinglong's army had arrived and formed an encirclement of him, so he immediately ordered to retreat. Ping Bao'er chased after him in a hurry, killing countless people along the way.

Zhu Di, the king of Yan, lost the first battle, and retreated from the battle, and Guo Ying, the Marquis of Wuding, who was ordered by Li Jinglong to come from Zhending, also arrived, which made it even worse.

Guo Ying heard the report of the Tanma, and the vanguard troops of the Yan King were fighting with Ping Bao'er's department, and they did not immediately enter the battle, because there was a report from the Tanma, and the follow-up troops of the Yan army were rushing to respond. Guo Ying didn't know that King Yan himself was in the front army, if he knew the news, he would definitely throw the whole army into battle at all costs, just to kill Zhu Di.

It's a pity that he also thought that this was just a front army of King Yan, so Lao Cheng was serious, and he immediately ordered his subordinates to set up an ambush on the retreat of the Yan army. His ambush was not an ambush with men and horses, because unfortunately, the place where he was happened to be a plain, with an unobstructed view, and there was no way for men and horses to ambush, but there was one thing that could be ambushed, that is, mines.

The Ming court has always paid attention to the research and development of firearms, invented a variety of firearms, and later invented grenades and mines, and mines were invented earlier, of course, the name of this well firearm was not called a mine at that time.

Guo Ying planted a large number of mines brought from Baoding on the retreat of the Yan army, and immediately led his troops to retreat beyond the Yan army's line of sight, wanting to wait for the Yan army to be killed and wounded before attacking. Under the personal command of Zhu Di himself, the Yan army had retreated quite methodically, although Ping Baoer was brave, he could not take too much advantage, but he did not expect that the Yan army was retreating, and suddenly mines exploded everywhere, and the power of the mines was limited at that time, but a large number of iron nails and iron pieces were hidden in the mines, and the explosion could injure and disable the enemy in pieces.

This time, the Yan army was in chaos, with the rich combat experience of the Yan King, he could not control the rhythm of the retreat of the troops, his army was retreating in an orderly manner, several mines exploded in a row, the three armies were in an uproar, and the order could no longer restrain the army, and the retreat became a defeat.

At this juncture, Wuding Marquis Guo Ying led the men and horses to kill out, after there was peace, there was Guo Ying on the side, and the Yan army was defeated until dark, under the leadership of Zhang Yu and the Chinese army, Ping Baoer and Guo Yingcai Mingjin withdrew the troops. Zhang Yu hurriedly took the defeated soldiers back to the camp, looked up and down, and in the confusion, King Yan was gone, and all the generals were shocked, and they hurriedly sent people out of the camp to search.

King Yan marched with the forward and did not raise his banner, but the generals in the army naturally knew that His Royal Highness was here, and when he retreated, he found that a large number of firearms were buried on the ground, and he was afraid that he would injure King Yan, so he left King Yan close to the rear team, and waited until Guo Ying stabbed him to kill him, and killed Yan Jun! Cut off the two halves, and the Yan army in the second half fought separately, and the men and horses were scattered.

King Yan in the protection of the soldiers of the bloody fight out of the siege, deserted, to the dark actually lost, at this time there were only three guards left by his side, February day, dark early, King Yan looked around at a loss, did not recognize anywhere, and then fell to the ground to listen to the sound, followed the sound, only then found his own camp, was relieved by the generals to welcome back to the Chinese army tent.

Since Zhu Di started the army, although every time he is outnumbered, but every time there is no danger, this is the most embarrassing defeat he has lost, if he hits a stray arrow when he is ambushed, a mine when he retreats, or when he breaks through the siege, he Zhu Di will die on the spot.

Zhu Di, who was slanted in crooked armor and covered in gunpowder, was returned to the big tent of the Chinese army by his subordinates, thinking about today's inexplicable boat sorrow, he was really ashamed, and immediately shouted: "Order the rear team to speed up, be sure to arrive before tomorrow morning, and at dawn, fight with Li Jiujiang!" ”

The generals had never seen Zhu Di so angry, and they all called for their orders, and they went to prepare for war without mentioning it.

Zhu Di sat down, remembering the sudden thunder when he fled all the way, and he still had some palpitations. For firearms, it has always been more used in the southern army and less used in the northern army, fighting against the Mobei people, strong bows and sharp arrows, and fast whips on horses are enough, and Zhu Di's understanding of firearms is also insufficient in the past, but today's fiasco has made Zhu Di impressed with the use of firearms.

In the future, the Yongle Emperor set up the Shenji Battalion in addition to the five military camps and the three thousand battalions, and established the world's earliest specialized firearms troops, which is really not unrelated to his current situation.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

From the mouth of the captured Yan soldiers, it was learned that the king of Yan himself was in the vanguard camp of the Yan army in ambush, Ping Baoer, Zhang Ying and others were shocked and remorseful, and Li Jinglong was even more regretful, but his heart that had been broken by Zhu Di, the king of Yan, also regained some confidence: it turned out that Zhu Di was not a last-ditch and victorious battle, it turned out that he also had times when he suffered defeat!

Li Jinglong's elm head, whose confidence had greatly increased, seemed to have suddenly opened up, and he did not reprimand Ping Bao'er and Zhang Ying, who missed the opportunity to kill King Yan, but on the contrary, he praised them greatly, and at the same time deliberately spread the news throughout the army to boost morale. Sure enough, the soldiers of the Southern Army, who were originally apprehensive in their hearts, were like having the courage to be free of children, and were always ready to smear oil on the soles of their feet and slip away.

At the third watch, Li Jinglong ended the meeting and returned to his sleeping tent.

On the big flagpole outside the tent, a string of red lanterns was hung out one after another, leaving only three, and the marshal's personal guard commanded Jiang Haiwen to re-hang the lanterns, yawned, and said to the guards outside the tent: "Okay, the brothers who are not on duty have all gone back to rest, and tomorrow morning, they will fight a decisive battle with the Yan army, and take care of their spirits." The brothers on duty cheered up, don't quarrel with the grandfather of the country to rest. ”

Dongfang Liang looked at the torrent of torches moving faintly in the distance, approached Jiang Haiwen, and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, that is Cui Dudu's military camp over there, it's so late, do you still have to change the guard?" ”

Jiang Haiwen glared at him, and finally had a good personal relationship with each other, so he didn't scold him in public, but only lowered his voice and said, "Ask something randomly, I don't know the rules." Do things next to the handsome, be well-behaved, don't ask what you shouldn't ask; If you shouldn't see it, don't look at it; Don't listen to what you shouldn't! Got it? ”

"Yes, yes, I'm not curious, I know, I know, my little brother will go back to the tent and rest."

Jiang Haiwen nodded, a few horses not far away were a little uneasy because of the sound of military mobilization in the distance, and they looked up to the sky and neighed a few times, Jiang Haiwen hurriedly rushed over and shouted: "Over there, take the horses away, there will be a battle tomorrow, it is really noisy for the grandfather to rest." ”

This year's light and handsome colonel paced to Dongfang Liang's side, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness has suffered a big loss today, the morale of the Southern Army is high, and there is an advantage in troops, which is very disadvantageous to our army, tomorrow's battle, the Southern Army will have a treacherous conspiracy, we can't find out the news, what should we do?" Do you want to make some right and wrong everywhere, or simply ......"

Dongfang Liang shook his head slightly: "Getting rid of Li Jinglong at this time does have some effect, but this effect is just to delay the period of the battle, and changing a general will be even more unfavorable to our army." Don't always think about slaughtering people, remember what your lord told us, once you become a secret spy and take off this armor, don't think of yourself as a charging warrior again......"

The leader of the little school said in unison with him: "We are pests, we are moths, we hide in the most hidden corners, revealing the most harmless appearance, and in silence, we erode the beams and pillars of the master's house, and a gust of wind comes, causing it to collapse with a bang, and we don't know what is happening at all." ”

No way, Xia Xun's gang of people, alert is alert, but they haven't read for a few days, Xia Xun dragged a few spies to them, they must not understand, such simple and easy-to-understand words, but they can deeply understand, this is the fourth article of Xia Xun's quotations, and the people under him can recite it backwards.

Dongfang Bright nodded and said with satisfaction: "You are on duty tonight, prick up your ears and open your eyes wide."

I went back to rest. ”

"Yes!"

Seeing Dongfang Liang walk away, the little colonel returned to the tent and stood still, and his eyes suddenly fell on the handsome flag flagpole standing in front of the tent, which was the only thing on the scene that looked like a beam or pillar, his eyes! Bright, something suddenly came to mind.

He didn't think about what would happen to his whimsical idea later, and no one ever knew what a huge role this insignificant pawn had in the battle of Baigou River, only in the secret file of the Flying Dragon Secret Spy, this matter was recorded, and his name was recorded, his name was "Yue Junhong!"

"Grateful Heart"

I came from chance, like a speck of dust

Does anyone see my vulnerability?

Where I come from, where I love

Who calls me in the next moment

Although the world is wide, this road is difficult to walk

I've seen all the ups and downs in this world

How much love I still have, how many tears I still have

Let God know that I don't admit defeat

Grateful heart, thank you for having you

Accompanying me all my life has given me the courage to be myself

Grateful heart, thank you for having you
