"Supervise the battalion and press it!"

Zhu Xieyuan seemed to have made this important decision in an instant, which was related to his life and the entire battle situation in Liaodong.

After he finished speaking, he directly picked up Shang Fang's sword, turned over and said:

"Not only the supervising battalion must be pressed, but the artillery battalion here must also be pressed, concentrate all the firepower, and aim at the slave cavalry bombardment in front of Ningxia Town!"

"Doesn't the slave chief know the position of the governor, well! Ben Governor himself stood up and saw if he had what it took to fight! ”

Zhu Xieyuan took out the snow-bright Shang Fang sword and shouted:

"Give the governor an order to Wang Rujin, if he dares to take a step back, the governor will kill him on the spot, and personally command the soldiers and horses of Ningxia to fight to the death!"

"Tell the soldiers on the front line, whether this battle is won or not, all the blame will be borne by the governor, and you can only kill the prisoners with your lives!"

In these words, Zhu Xieyuan revealed the tough attitude that Zhu Youxiao should have on the battlefield, using both soft and hard, which is why he was able to subdue these arrogant generals so quickly.

When the news reached the front line, Wang Rujin was shocked.

The adjutant general said: "What should I do, Marshal, Zhu Xieyuan is going to fight with the slave chief, should we withdraw or follow him to death...?" ”

Wang Rujin also looked incredulous when he heard that the Jurchen soldiers were breaking through in his direction.

He didn't have any intention of fighting for merit, and before that, he didn't have the idea of fighting for his life.

Originally, he just wanted to follow Zhang Wanbang to pick up the leaks and cooperate with the soldiers and horses of Datong and Xuanfu to fight this battle, but he didn't think about it.

Wang Rujin was indeed a little panicked, and was doing a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, thinking about whether to slip away or not.

But at this moment, Zhu Xieyuan's extremely harshly worded military order came to his eyes.

He sighed in his heart, it seems that it is inevitable to fight with the captives this time, not to mention that the whole world is not the king's land, where can he run by himself.

It's better to fight with Jianlu, and you can fight a brave battle to the death, and be loyal to the country...

Thinking of this, Wang Rujin directly kicked the deputy general over, and said loudly: "What do you mean to go to death with the superintendent?" As the chief military officer of the Ming Dynasty, loyal to His Majesty and fighting to the death for the country, it is my glory! ”

He turned his head and told the pacesetter of the Inspector Battalion:

"Please tell the overseer, my Wang Rujin will never take a step back in this battle, if Jiannu wants to pass, he will step on my corpse!!"

Seeing that he didn't seem to be pretending, the pacesetter also clenched his fists and said: "Wang Dashuai Gaoyi, I will go back and die with the brothers in Ningxia Town!" ”

With that, he turned on his horse and galloped backwards.

The deputy general wanted to speak and stopped, seeing that Wang Rujin had ordered all the family members to be pressed, he let go of his desire to persuade him, and he was helpless in his heart, it seemed that there was only one way.

Wang Rujin stepped on the wooden box with one foot, brandished his saber, and shouted to the terrified Ningxia town generals around him:

"Today, my Wang Rujin is out of the way, and I have a fight with this gang of Jiannu! Pass on my military order, anyone who dares to take a step back and shake the morale of the army will be killed! ”

When the family got the order, he immediately turned around and gave the order.

After a while, there was a burst of cheers in front of him, but a family member ran back and shouted with great joy: "Handsome, happy event, happy event!" ”

"Li Hongji rushed into the Jiannu army, and cut down the slave chieftain led by him in three or two strokes, the slave cavalry front army has collapsed, and Li Guo is also following Li Hongji to counterattack!"

Wang Rujin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and Li Hongji rushed in directly and cut down the slave chief?

The slave rode three or two times to kill a slave chief, and then retreated, is this still a person?

Listening to the increasingly violent cheers, Wang Rujin was convinced, he laughed, and was the first to rush out, shouting:

"Li Hongji is good, after this battle, the commander will personally ask for credit for him!"

"Brothers, let me kill the captives!"

Almost at the same time, all the soldiers and horses in Ningxia Town began to counterattack, and Zhu Xieyuan also led the Governor Battalion to arrive, and all the artillery was aimed at the slave cavalry that broke through to the east.

The Jurchen cavalry was completely bathed in the rain of shells for a time, and suffered heavy casualties.

The Ningxia Zhenming Army, which was considered a weak division by Jiannu, suddenly broke out with stronger combat effectiveness than the Xuanfu and Datong armies.

The soldiers of the Ming army stepped over the corpses like a hill, rushed into the middle of the Jurchen cavalry that had been turned on their backs, and slashed and killed indiscriminately.

During the battle, the corpses of the Jurchen cavalry covered a position one or two miles wide, and the screams and wails were earth-shattering.

"What, Leng Geri died at the hands of a Ming army?" Nurhachi was shocked, "You don't even know what this Ming army is called?" ”

Looking at the white-armored guards who came to report the news, Nurhachi was directly furious.

Leng Geli has followed him since he was a child, brave and good at fighting, once defeated the North Korean army of 50,000 with 10,000 cavalry in the field, and now he actually died in the hands of an unknown Ming army soldier?

He's Dakin's Babel!

Shame, shame!!

Nurhachi's strategy was not wrong, but there was never a fixed side on the battlefield that would win, and he could not have known that such an outlier as Li Hongji had emerged in the Ming army.

It is even more impossible for him to know that Wang Rujin, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, chose to kill himself in this battle and wanted to fight with him.

Every tiny detail can determine the course of the entire war.

Leng Geri died suddenly, maybe it was careless, maybe it was Li Hongji's sneak attack, but it didn't matter, the result was that Leng Geri was dead, and Li Hongji killed him.

It was the first time Nurhachi had suffered such a failure, and he was at a loss for a moment.

But the next moment, the roar of cannonballs and shouts of killing woke Nurhachi awake, and Huang Taiji's voice came from beside him:

"Father Khan, the pontoon bridge has been built, do you want to cross the river?"

Nurhachi made a quick decision, turned over his horse, and ordered: "Hong! Lead all the cavalry to break through with Ben Khan! ”

Huang Taiji also knew the seriousness of the current battle situation, and did not hesitate, that is, he led all the remaining cavalry that could be called and followed Nurhachi's side.

The Jurchen cavalry is not only tall and large, but also heavy armor, and even the weapons are steel tiger guns and broadswords.

Nurhachi gathered all the remaining Jurchen cavalry, took advantage of the slightly high terrain, crossed the makeshift pontoon bridge, and withdrew in a hurry under the cover of the infantry.

Naturally, the Ming army could not let go of this opportunity to attack half-crossing, and for a while, all the bird-gunners on both sides turned their targets to the pontoon bridge and suddenly launched a volley.

In just an instant, more than a thousand Jurchen cavalry fell on the pontoon bridge, but the rest of the Jurchen cavalry still passed through the pontoon bridge like a raging wave.

When fleeing for their lives, the Jurchen cavalry became more fierce than ever.

They brandished big swords, thinking that they were about to break out of the encirclement, but the banner of the Ming Dynasty was slowly raised in front of them, but it was Jiang Bi's soldiers and horses in Xuanfu Town who did not cross the river at all, and they had been intercepting in this array.

Seeing the Xuanfu Zhenming army blocking in front, Nurha's red eyes were red, and he violently pinched the horse's belly, constantly stimulating the mount with the spurs on his boots.

The rest of the Jurchen cavalry were also like trapped beasts, desperately rushing towards this last chance.
