The night is like ink, and the dark clouds cover the moon, and it seems that the weather has not rained for more than a month, and it seems that the sky is finally changing.

There was a cold silence on the Liaoshen Great Plain, and in the endless darkness where you couldn't see your fingers, a huge cavalry was playing torches, like ghosts from the Nine Hells, and was "rumbling" on the prairie.

Looking into the distance, on the boundless prairie, on the faint high wall in the distance, the lights are faintly visible, and there is the location of the Tartar Shengjing City.

Zhu Youxiao and Sun Chuanting led more than 200,000 new troops of the Ming Dynasty to the edge of the Hunhe River in the evening.

It's a pity that the bridge here has been destroyed by the Tartars who learned that the army of the Ming Dynasty was coming, so they had to order the logistics engineers who came with the army to build several large pontoon bridges.

Zhu Youxiao learned from the report of the big golden eagle after the high-altitude monitoring that the Tartars had collectively evacuated Shengjing City in the evening.

However, Huang Taiji also knew that with too many supplies, cattle, sheep, horses, and coated minions, they couldn't run fast at all, so they all went into battle lightly, and they just led some necessary supplies and began to evacuate.

However, Huang Taiji did not dare to set fire to the city, and he also did not dare to kill those clothed minions who were abandoned by them.

It should be that he was afraid of completely angering the Ming Emperor and the Ming New Army, and launched a crazy pursuit of them regardless of them and never gave up.

Because in that case, although you have a bad mouth, you will lose more than you lose.

Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng are not so irrational, nor are they so impulsive.

But there are two things worth noting:

The first is the evacuation of the Tartars, all of whom are cavalry, both military and civilian.

They knew that they couldn't take away the other bulky supplies, and of course they had to take all the horses and good horses with them.

This is also for the speed of running, so as not to be caught up by the Ming New Army, and to be able to use horses as a transport team, which can take away a lot of necessary materials for life and combat.

Moreover, in the case of insufficient food, it is completely possible to kill horses to satisfy hunger, at least in the case of lack of food, to hold on for more than half a month.

In the vast steppe, when all the tribesmen were cavalry, it was not difficult to find a Mongol tribe, whether it was looting or asking for help, they could persevere.

In this way, as long as the Tartar army leaves the Great Wall and reaches the boundless prairie, Huang Taiji and his Houjin will really escape from the tiger's mouth, basically avoiding the crisis of extermination.

With their superb riding skills, the new army of the Ming Empire could not catch up at all, and could only push the living space that oppressed them horizontally and slowly drove them out of the northern prairie of the Ming Empire.

Another point is that Shengjing City actually left the two white flags that had just been formed, which were used to break the evacuation of the Tartar army.

These two white flags, composed of the Jurchen tribes of Haixi, were actually 60,000 people, and there were a total of 200 Niulu soldiers.

These soldiers didn't even defend the city, and they had already camped outside Shengjing City, waiting for the arrival of the new army of the Ming Dynasty.

These wild girls are so unaware of life and death, and dare to be Houjin's cannon fodder, which also surprised Zhu Youxiao and Sun Chuanting, who knew the news.

After discussions between the two and the staff officer corps, it has always been believed that the two white flags formed by these wild maidens should be because they are not good at defending the city.

If they are trapped in the city by the army of the Ming Empire, then the fate will be obvious, and defeat is certain.

But if they abandon the city and do not defend it, and intercept the new army of the Ming Dynasty in the field, it is impossible to attack and retreat, and they can easily escape.

Therefore, this seemingly reckless decision is precisely a crooked decision that makes the most beneficial choice for them.

At present, the logistics engineers of various regiments have become extremely skilled in the business of building pontoon bridges.

However, just after the army had eaten dinner, the three large pontoon bridges had already been built.

Maybe Huang Taiji couldn't bear it, so he buried these wild Jurchen cannon fodder easily, and told the Wild Nuzhen of the two white flags not to try to stop the Ming New Army from crossing the river.

Therefore, on the other side of the river now, there are no enemy ambushes to stop the construction of the pontoon bridge.

There were only a few squads of wild girl scouts, and after watching on the other side of the river for a while, they hurriedly jumped on their horses and galloped away, presumably to report the news.

Zhu Youxiao and Sun Chuanting were not in a hurry, after all the soldiers had dinner and rested for a while, the sky had all darkened, but it was night.

As torches were lit by the soldiers, the large army began to cross the river.

The first to cross the river, of course, were the scout brigades.

Their task is to clear out the scout team of the two white flag wild girls first, and lead the way for the army in the dark night.

In fact, the crossing site of this Hunhe River is directly south of Shengjing City, less than thirty miles away from Shengjing City, and it is impossible to get lost. Qishu.com

Wu Shuqiang, this kid, when the Royal Guards raided Dolgon's brigade, made great contributions to the success of the troops, so he was promoted to the captain of the Scout Brigade of the Guards Firearms Brigade.

The current Wu Shuqiang can be regarded as a success, a promotion, and a fortune.

This time, there is no T68 to guide his scout team, but there is another mutant dog, T54.

Therefore, this kid led the three hundred soldiers of the scout brigade, followed the T54, and began to cross the river first with great excitement.

With the help of T54, it's like picking up military achievements, without the slightest danger and difficulty, and it's no wonder that this guy who has always been extremely lucky, now it looks like he's smiling from ear to ear.

……

"Dada" ......

About ten miles away from Shengjing City, in the vast night, there is a crisp sound of horses' hooves approaching from the front, and more than ten horsemen can be faintly seen flying in the dark night, galloping from the front, this is the scout sentinel of the wild Jurchen tribe.

They had just gone to reconnoiter the enemy's situation and monitor the marching speed of the Ming New Army, and were preparing to return to the camp with two white flags to report, so that they could prepare for battle and defense.

Scouts like this have happened countless times tonight as they come and go.

This is true not only on the side of the two white flags, but also on the front of the large army of the Ming New Army.

It's just that when the large army of the Ming New Army is hurrying to pass through Shengjing City, and the distance is only ten or so miles, the scouts of the Ming New Army finally started a blocking attack operation, and it is no longer a small fight like before.

"Whoosh" ......

There was a cold sound of breaking through the air, and dozens of sharp arrows shot in, accurately piercing the throats and bodies of those wild girl real scouts......

Suddenly, a scout who bore the brunt of the attack widened his eyes in horror, subconsciously touched his throat with his hands, and opened his mouth wide but did not make any sound.

"Poof!"

The lifeless corpse suddenly fell from the horse's back, and in the night, only the frightened war horse neighed and galloped away into the distance, and then was subdued by a group of black-clothed soldiers who suddenly appeared.

"Cut, I've only met a dozen dog tartars so close!"

A scout shooter from the Guards Firearms Brigade whispered nonchalantly.

After crossing the river, Wu Shuqiang's scout brigade basically didn't catch a few battles, and now they can finally let go of killing, but they haven't found many wild girls really scouting.

Therefore, the scout child soldier was a little dissatisfied and complained.

With the scouts and scouts on both sides, a life-and-death duel began, and fierce battles began everywhere in the area ten miles in front of the camp of the two white flags of the wild Jurchen.

However, with the help of the mutant big dog T54, the enemy scouts have no power to fight back at all.

They were either bitten to death by the T54 at a rapid pace, or they were shot to death by the soldiers of the Scout Brigade from a distance with their crossbows.

Ten miles, eight miles, five miles......

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and under the reflection of the blazing firelight, when there were only five miles left from the enemy camp, more than 200,000 elite horsemen of the new army of the Ming Dynasty began to stop.

A group of soldiers, according to the battle mode, began to line up and reorganize the army, preparing to launch an attack on these two white flag wild Jurchen soldiers.

Attacking the enemy's battalion and first bombarding it with artillery has become a fixed routine of the new army of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao and Sun Chuanting have both heard of the real toughness of these wild girls.

They are all guys who don't want to die in battle, their combat effectiveness is extremely strong in close quarters, and their archery skills are also very superb, where will they go to engage in hand-to-hand combat with each other?

Obviously, these wild girls really thought too much, and thought that they could defeat the new army of the Ming Dynasty with their own bravery and skilled archery skills.

They are still caught up in the thrill of primitive battles in the past, and they do not feel that the times are changing, and the mode of battle will naturally change drastically.

These two wild Jurchen soldiers of the white flag, now with these 60,000 warriors, want to stop the new army of the Ming Dynasty, it is simply a car in the mantis arm, I don't know what to say.

After a stick of incense, the huge military formation of the Ming New Army began to move forward, crushing towards the opponent's huge camp without slowness or hurry.

The two white flag wild Jurchen soldiers on the other side were also ready, and everyone was riding on their war horses, holding all kinds of weapons such as bows and arrows, with a fierce light in their eyes, waiting to launch a decisive charge.

The war was about to break out, and there was no prelude at all, so the carriage and horses were quietly swinged.

A thick evil aura dispersed from the two armies in all directions, and the air here seemed to be about to freeze.
