Chapter 193: The Collapse of the Tile Thorn

At this moment, the real test is not the command ability of Cheng Guogong and Yexian, but the command ability of the generals at all levels below.

After the tile spur came to the throne from Tuhuan, he has won successive battles for decades, allowing the tile spur to expand from a corner of the Western Regions to a large country tens of thousands of miles east and west, and the generals are also sharpened in one victory after another.

The ability to command and kill enemies in battle. Nature should not be underestimated.

On the Ming side, the new generation of generals in the Beijing camp is already a step behind their parents. But the veteran left behind by Taizong still occupies the command position.

Such as the Wu family brothers, Xining Hou Song Ying, Wujin Hou Zhu Mian, and so on.

Looking at their resumes, they have all worked hard under Emperor Taizong. Although such a scene is difficult, they can still hold on.

And in terms of physical fitness and equipment, Jingying is much stronger than the tile thorn.

That's right, don't think that the Mongols eat meat, so they have better physical fitness than Jingying.

First of all, Zhu Qizhen watched Jingying the most. In terms of treatment, the Beijing camp is more than other border troops, although it is impossible to have meat at once, but it is still okay to fight teeth every three or five dozen tooth sacrifices.

Moreover, the ancient nomads did not want to eat meat as later generations thought. They eat more dairy products and so on.

Just look at the figure.

Mongols are generally quite tall and tall. Compared to the elite selected from the millions of guards in the army. Naturally, it can't be compared.

This kind of physical strength and equipment advantage is reflected on the battlefield, that is, although the generals of the Ming army are a little dull at many tactical levels and do not operate, many times they react slowly.

However, the tile spur cavalry could not defeat the Ming army.

At this time, the killings of both sides were still equal.

Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong sat firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, but he couldn't sit still at first.

This is the disparity in national strength.

admits that the three thousand battalions and five military battalions brought out by Chengguo Gong have been cavalry, which are the elite of the Ming army, but it does not mean that the Ming Dynasty cannot live without these troops.

And Cheng Guogong didn't think much about these issues at all, he just had to think about how to win.

The so-called mercy is not in charge of the army, righteousness is not in charge of wealth, Cheng Guogong has fought for half his life, and he has long looked down on life and death, whether it is a spur or a Ming army.

After two hours of fierce fighting, at least more than 10,000 people died on the spot, and Cheng Guogong didn't even blink his eyes.

But he couldn't bear it first.

This time, most of the soldiers under the command of Ye Xian were the elite of the tile spurs, although there were still some conscripted tribal troops, but the combat effectiveness of them was too different from the tile spur headquarters.

In such a fight, it is simply suffering.

There is already a pattern that cannot be stabilized. The ones who really stand in the way are the flesh of the heart of the first.

Such cavalry, tile spurs no more than 100,000.

This is the basis for controlling the entire steppe first

Tray.

The battle has been fought here, and the winner has not yet been decided, and he already knows one thing first, and it is like this, even if he wins. The Tile Spurs also lost.

Because the Tile Thorn does not have the strength to suppress other ambitious people.

Such a victory is not what I want first.

Ye Xian secretly said in his heart: "Although the combat power of the Southern Dynasty is not as good as before, the foundation is still there. I had to find another way. ”

also gave an order, and the people below blew the sound of trumpets one after another.

For a time, the Mongolian cavalry immediately attacked.

This trumpet is a clarion call to the attack.

It's just a change on the battlefield, but it is beyond everyone's expectations, on the battlefield, half of the iron cavalry turned around and retreated.

All the cavalry that withdrew were naturally the men and horses of the Tile Spur Headquarters.

For a time, there were 100,000 Cao Nyima in the Mongolian tribes who were dragged behind, because they were about to face the counterattack of the Ming army.

Without the Tile Spur Headquarters as the mainstay, plus these Mongolian cavalry were thrown down by the Tile Thorns, their morale was almost collapsed, and there was no ability to resist.

The various departments of the Ming army did not have to wait at all, and the orders of Cheng Guogong divided into various directions, and the Mongolian departments were defeated.

Cheng Guogong was overjoyed when he saw this.

There are at least more than 10,000 beheadings in this battle, which can be regarded as one of the few big victories in this dynasty.

It's just that the battle has reached this point, not only Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, is not satisfied, but even the whole army is not very satisfied. On the one hand, Cheng Guogong ordered all the departments to clean up the battlefield, and on the other hand, he sent a department to bite the tail of the Mongolian tribes and pursue.

But in order to be careful, the tile spur is deceitful, and it is not allowed to chase too far.

When the soldiers of the various ministries were repairing, Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, summoned all the speakers and said frankly: "Today's big victory, the remnants of the thorn thief, are already swimming fish at the bottom of the kettle, I want to chase the north and raise the prestige of my Ming Dynasty, are you willing to follow?" ”

The generals at all levels below were naturally unwilling to give up after eating the sweetness.

This war may be a catastrophe for all parts of Yanbian, but it is a feast for the entire Xungui group.

Not to mention anything else, just to say that most of the materials captured this time must be replenished for military supplies, but there are some things that can be divided among the generals at all levels of the whole army.

Sending troops to fight is not only a military achievement, but also a lot of extra money.

The noble families at all levels are extremely wealthy, which is of course a reward from the imperial court, and there is also a lot of extra money in this kind of war.

"I'm willing." Most of the generals said in unison.

Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong saw that Wu Kezhong did not move, and asked in a seemingly calm tone: "Gong Shunbo, do you have any opinions?" ”

Wu Kezhong said: "The last general doesn't dare, but the last general feels that today's tile spur doesn't seem to be doing his best, this pursuit, the last general is a little worried?" ”

Cheng Guogong said: "Respectfully obedient Peter. ”

"Mongol Tatar tricks, how can I not

Understood, it's just a matter of luring the enemy deep and then laying an ambush. Out of the front mountain pass, to Jining Haizi, a horse Pingchuan, there is no place to ambush at all. I also understand that he is afraid that his subordinates will lose too much and affect his position on the grassland. ”

"That's it."

"However, what Gong Shunbo said is not unreasonable, so let's do it, the army will stay here and stay here, as a response, chase all the way to the south of the Hanhai, at most three hundred miles, if you can't catch up, withdraw the army."

"What do you think?"

In Chengguogong's words, he did not respect the Wu brothers at all, the Wu brothers were Mongolians, and Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, was in front of them, a Mongolian Tartar, where was there a trace of respect.

But the Wu brothers are also used to it.

Tartar officials are like that.

This is still the Wu family from Wu Kezhong's father's generation, and they have been officials in Daming. That's a little better.

"I'll do as I was told." The generals below said one after another.

Victory is the greatest prestige bonus of a general, and after winning a battle just now, no one dared to refuse Cheng Guogong's arrangement, and the same was true for Wu Kezhong.

And Cheng Guogong also knows it in his heart.

He would never cross the Hanhai Sea to the north, because there were too many problems on the grain route.

Maoerzhuang has been out of the sun for nearly a hundred miles, and there are enough supplies here. It can be used as a logistics base, and then the army can bring ten days of dry food, and you can drink the south of the Mahan Sea.

If everything goes well, it will only take seven or eight days for the army to collect troops and enter the customs.

As soon as they retreat first, the other departments will not fight at all, and they will withdraw on their own.

This year's war is almost over.

But Cheng Guogong also understands it very well.

He did not hit the main force of the Tile Spur hard, I am afraid that in the future, the Tile Spur cavalry will go south every autumn, and then the autumn defense along the Nine Sides will become an inevitable behavior.

At that time, the consumption of troops and military expenses was probably much higher than before.

Since the beginning of the Taizong period, the nine-sided tranquility, I can only fight others, and I can't beat others, and the situation has lived up to its existence.

Chengguo Duke Zhu Yong's gaze swept over all the generals and said, "Marquis Zhenyuan." ”

Gu Xingzu, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, immediately came out and said, "The last general." ”

Cheng Guogong said: "You take the men and horses of your headquarters and garrison Maoerzhuang, and you are optimistic about the food and baggage, as well as the wounded and prisoners." Waiting to meet the army. Do you understand? ”

Gu Xingzu, Marquis of Zhenyuan, said: "The last general understands. ”

The reason why Cheng Guogong chose Gu Xingzu was not because Gu Xingguogong performed well, but because he performed the worst. Although Cheng Guogong felt that it would be difficult to fight. But the problem is that once there is a big war, it will be a bitter battle, just like the one just now. 、

Gu Xingzu's ability is limited, and he is arranged in the army, so I am afraid that it will also involve people, so he will be stationed here.

Come to think of it, as a Ming general, he should also be able to guard the city.
