Chapter 190: The Battle of Maoerzhuang

Zhu Qizhen silently thought about his own arrangements.

At this moment, he was a little bit of a British public, and he suddenly wanted to understand one thing.

Perhaps, the Ming army is a powerful tool for Zhu Qizhen's rule, but it does not mean that the army is the most important capital of Zhu Qizhen. His biggest capital is that Taizu Taizong Renzong Xuanzong has been his emperor for five generations and ruled the Ming Dynasty. Let the Zhu dynasty be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty is not only available to the military, but also to the people, and even the official heart.

Zhu Qizhen introspected, since he ascended the throne, he didn't dare to say that Ze was born by the people, but he also dared to say that he was also ashamed of the people of the world, but in the four words of dedication, he can have a clear conscience.

Especially for the people of Shuntianfu and a province directly under the government.

30 million taels of silver smashed into Hebei, and the Hebei Water Conservancy Project ensured that in the case of no matter how dry it was, it could also ensure the most basic rations.

Moreover, millions of Hebei people are the biggest supporting force in Zhuqi Town.

It is also Zhu Qizhen's last reserve army.

Because in the maintenance of water conservancy projects, the strong men of every village have even a team. If necessary, they can only distribute weapons, and they can be called in on a temporary basis, and there are enough officers. can organize a large army.

And the various guards around Zhu Qizhen, as well as the students of martial arts, are veterans who have been idle in Beijing, Zhu Qizhen is determined to be able to recruit a group of troops within a few months.

This is Zhu Qizhen's plan C.

He had been preparing for this battle for so long, under various plans. Even if Chengguo Gong is defeated and the whole army is annihilated, Zhu Qizhen is also confident that in the second half of this year, the second and third battles will be formed.

He didn't believe it, the tile spur was really a heavenly soldier, and he could win three battles in half a year, and then attack the city of Beijing.

Then he will have to face a difficult offensive and defensive battle in Beijing.

Of course, Zhu Qizhen definitely didn't want things to develop to this point.

It's just that at this point in time, Zhu Qizhen always has a little persecution paranoia. After all, his crossing cannot be explained by science.

What if there is a so-called historical correction in the dark?

And he dared to firmly believe that even if there was a so-called historical correction, as long as he didn't make a meteorite fall from the sky, he would be able to flatten the thorns.

Of course, this was not what he expected.

Because in this way, Cao Nai's worries may come true.

The land of Hebei, every family with filial piety, I don't know how many Hebei soldiers, poor and uncertain riverside bones, still a person in a spring boudoir dream.

After Zhu Qizhen settled down, he said: "I hope that Chengguo Gong will not lose the hope of the people in the world." ”

Just when Zhu Qizhen and Zhang Fu were discussing the military situation on the front line.

Cheng Guogong has already come out of the side wall.

As mentioned above, the current Ming side wall cannot be understood as a rear

The Great Wall is a barrier formed by castles, moats, checkpoints, low walls, and other civil structures as well as natural mountains.

There were also several gaps left for the army to enter and exit.

Cheng Guogong took the five military camps out of Yanghekou, and news had already arrived

The 3,000 battalion, which is the vanguard, has already assaulted Maoerzhuang and is currently fighting.

When Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, heard this, he didn't say a word, and with a wave of the flag, the main cavalry of the Ming Dynasty began to accelerate and came towards Maoerzhuang.

Dial the night before the time.

In the dark night, you can't see anything really, and if you look closely at an area, you can see that there are many dark shadows moving stupidly in the dark.

The summer sky is extremely bright, even though there is no moon on this day, but the galaxy crosses the sky, the stars hang low, and the brilliance is compelling.

In ancient times, when there was no light pollution, the sky was naturally gorgeous.

The sky is so beautiful, coupled with the wilderness land, from time to time there is a wolf howl, and I don't know what kind of animal roars, wild animals, it's time to come out.

It's just that there is no great view of the familiar place.

Wu Kezhong and Wu Keqin brothers have been leading the team for a long time.

For the sake of the suddenness of the war, they told Cheng Guogong that they led the men and horses of the headquarters, threw off the large group of people, and broke into Maoerzhuang.

Maoerzhuang is an abandoned city.

It was a castle built during Taizong's Northern Expedition, but Emperor Xuanzong moved the outer guards one by one, and on the grassland, there are abandoned cities like Maoerzhuang, I don't know how many.

Under normal circumstances, it is only when the night is not closed to carry out tasks that the night rests in these places.

But it's much easier to defend a city than to camp on the steppe.

Therefore, the so-called supplies that the tile spur brigade has snatched from the south are all here in Maoerzhuang.

It's just that the tile spur is the tile thorn, give him a city, and they don't know how to defend it.

Brother Wu Kezhong, close to Maoerzhuang It was almost dawn, and they sent someone to touch it and take a look, and found that although the area of Maoerzhuang Castle is not small, it is much smaller than these looted materials.

Therefore, a large number of baggage is piled up around the outside of the city wall of Maoerzhuang. Layers upon layers, only people on guard outside, not even the most basic fence?

Not even the gates of the city were closed.

It's like being defenseless.

In fact, Wu Kezhong also understands such a situation.

Because Daming camped in the village, there are certain rules, it does not mean that the tile spur is also like this, which is also for many reasons, the biggest problem is that on the grassland, where are there so many trees? Cut down in situ as a fence.

Whatever the reason, since the tile spurs are unprepared.

The Wu brothers were naturally disrespectful.

In the early hours of the morning, the army was ten miles away and launched a campaign against the cats

The raid on the village.

The reason why it is not close is that it is ten miles away from the tile spying on the horse density, which can still be solved silently, and even if there is a little noise, it doesn't matter, as long as it is not an earth-shattering noise, it is difficult to transmit it ten miles away.

And the cavalry has to rush up to have combat effectiveness.

The Tile Spur cavalry also reacted quickly.

Immediately pushed the cart outside, most of the cavalry who did not have time to get on the horse, hid behind the cart, and after all kinds of supplies, they bent their bows and arrows and shot at the Ming army.

And from the Maoerzhuang, stand out thousands of rides.

The two sides just bumped into each other.

The two sides fought repeatedly within a radius of several miles around Maoerzhuang.

It's just that their fighting style is the same, because the 3,000 battalions themselves are composed of Tartars, the Wu brothers are all from Mongolians, and they now have their own tribes, which are in the Gansu area, and the third child of the Wu family sits at home and supports his mother.

So even though they are much better equipped, the way they play in their bones is still the way of playing of the Mongols. The cavalry who stayed behind were also impatient to defend the city.

Or rather, they didn't know how to defend the city.

simply came out to fight with the 3,000 battalions on the battlefield.

At this moment, the two sides are like two dogs biting together, and everyone is gnawing loose, and the weight here in Maoerzhuang is the dog food of these two dogs.

Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of dyspitium. This chirping arrow is naturally a hollow arrow, shooting in the air and making a sharp sound, as if it were a whistle.

It is mostly used to transmit messages.

Wu Kezhong naturally knew that while he was fighting, he took the time to look north, but saw smoke and dust in the distance, and a large group of cavalry came from the north.

Naturally, there is no need to say more.

Wu Kezhong gritted his teeth, his expression remained unchanged, but the faces of the soldiers around him changed.

Not everyone is as calm as Wu Kezhong.

It's just that it's almost the front and back, in the southern sky, there is the sound of fireworks bursting, in the daytime, this kind of fireworks cannon, just exploding a white smoke, but the sound is much more than the sound of dysprosium.

This is the army's medium gun, which is naturally used by the Ming army to transmit messages.

Needless to say, what kind of message to preach.

The army of Chengguo Gong has arrived.

The Ming army suddenly rose up and fought bravely.

What is the concept of a 100,000 army, even if it is 100,000 people, standing together, it can fill anyone's sight.

Because of their speed, the cavalry occupies an area that is only larger than the foot soldiers, not smaller than the foot soldiers. Therefore, although the terrain near Maoerzhuang is mostly hilly, and the terrain is not precipitous, it is impossible to accommodate hundreds of thousands of troops to fight.

Therefore, when the Wu brothers found that the armies of the two sides were close to Maoerzhuang, in fact, the two sides had already exchanged hands, but they couldn't see it.

After Cheng Guogong got the news, he almost immediately decided to divide his troops into three ways and advanced towards Maoerzhuang in a fan shape.
