Chapter 5: Victory in the first battle

"In that case, the adults are using me!" Brother Erdan frowned for a while, what kind of contribution did he make to return to Beijing to marry Miss Xin'er, it turned out that he was lying to himself, which was really hateful.

"My lord, you have wronged Lord Shen. Although he has such an idea, but the more important thing is to make you make contributions, we Jinyiwei all know that Lord Shen trusts you the most! As he spoke, this subordinate looked at Brother Erdan with envy on his face.

This is said to be Brother Erdan's heart, Lord Shen favors himself so much, isn't it because he is smart and clever, thinking of this, his originally somewhat low heart was suddenly full of joy.

"Hehe, this time you have worked hard to follow this official to this bitter cold place, wait for you to have time, let this official teach you well, just learn one or two points of the official's ability, and ensure that you can get the favor of our Lord Shen!"

Although he was a little suspicious of bragging, this subordinate did not suspect it, and quickly said with a grateful face: "Thank you, Lord for your support!" ”

"Hehe, hurry back and rest, I'm going to cross the river early tomorrow morning, cheer up and kill the enemy well!" Brother Erdan stretched and said.

In the early morning of this day, the Yalu River was crowded with boats, but there were no sailors and warships, most of them were small fishing boats collected from nearby.

"My lord, the Japanese on the other side of the strait have already defended, in the last general's opinion, it is best for us to send a team of men and horses to test the attack first, if we can go ashore and occupy a place for a large group of men and horses to land, it will be great!" Holding clairvoyance to check for a while, Shi Ru turned to Li Chengliang, who was sitting on a chair with a fox fur coat and his eyes closed.

Li Chengliang smiled, and said without opening his eyes: "I said Master Shi, although what you said has some truth, but is it useful for such a small wave of people to use in the past?" Oh, look at this official! It's a meat bun that beats a dog, and there is no return! ”

What else does Shi Ru want to say more? I saw Li Chengliang open his eyes and ask the guard beside him, "Has the time come?" ”

"Your Excellency, the hour has just arrived!" The guard hurriedly said, but this is a lie, and it is already a moment of time.

The corners of Li Chengliang's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud of his accurate concept of time: "Pass my general's order, the army will cross the river immediately, fear the enemy and not move forward, and the military law will be engaged!" ”

At the sound of an order, 20,000 troops set out in unison, and for a while, the fishing boats on the Yalu River were connected, and the snow-white sails seemed to spread a layer of white veil on the river.

"Your Excellency General, the Ming army is strong, and it is not easy to resist head-on!" Although there were 30,000 horses on hand, in the face of the army of the Ming Empire, everyone, including Miyamoto Ichiro, did not have the confidence to fight this battle.

However, it is a matter of the stability of the army's morale, and a person like Miyamoto Ichiro, who has been in battle for a long time, naturally will not ignore this, only to see him smile indifferently: "Hehe, look at the chaotic formation of the Ming army, it shows that they are overstated, and we have built so many fortifications these days, wouldn't it be cheaper for them to retreat easily!" ”

Without waiting for the generals behind him to pat his ass, he heard Miyamoto Ichiro continue: "But it is not clear how many men and horses the enemy has, and it is indeed inappropriate to press the troops on this battle, pass on my general's order, 10,000 horses rely on fortifications to defend, if the enemy army is large, and then cooperate with the other 20,000 horses to fight and retreat, like leading these Ming troops to the mountains and then do the calculation!" ”

"Your Excellency General!" "Good strategy, good strategy!" …… As soon as Ichiro Miyamoto's words were finished, the sound of sycophants behind him boiled, and as soon as you said a word to me, all the samurai were very happy.

The 20,000 horses dispatched by Liaodong Town this time are also considered elite, and the specific situation of the Japanese on the opposite side has long been known to everyone, saying that this Japanese man is less than five feet tall, and it is not easy to walk on two lap legs.

Miyamoto Ichiro's arrangement can be regarded as a great help, the fortifications built are five hundred steps from the shore, and a landing field can be regarded as a gift to the men and horses of Liaodong Town.

"Brethren, the time has come to make a difference! Kill me! With a loud roar, Brother Erdan jumped off the fishing boat, waved his knife and ran towards the widows in the distance.

It is said that the 3,000 soldiers of the Dingliao avant-garde were not familiar with the new commander, and originally thought that he would follow behind and supervise the battle like other generals, but he did not expect that as soon as the ship docked, his old man would kill him.

The Dingliao avant-garde is not Li Liang Chengyan's family, otherwise even Shen Chongming's big face would not be able to get this position for him, so the three Qianhu who accompanied him were immediately startled when they saw that this unfamiliar Master Ma actually killed him first.

Then he reacted, and shouted angrily: "Protect your lord!" "Kill me!" This is also a helpless thing, Brother Erdan, as a Shangguan, his life is naturally much more important than these thousands of households, if something happens to him on the battlefield, but these subordinates are safe, then the big guy's good life can be over, if he is convicted or demoted, he will have to be buried if he is serious.

They are in a hurry, there are people who are faster than them, these people are a brocade guard brought by Brother Erdan, these people are people who have followed Shen Chongming for many years, and Shen Chongming has explained more than once before leaving, he must take care of Brother Erdan, a guy who is easy to be impulsive.

At this time, I saw that Brother Erdan took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness to go forward, but everyone was taken aback, if there are three long and two short, how can the brothers explain to Lord Shen.

For a while, there was such a situation on the east bank of the Yalu River: the army that had just landed and spread out gradually raised a part, and with the drive of this part, the surrounding area also stood out, and slowly became a bow.

Although Brother Erdan has the name of Jinyiwei, he has always been unaccustomed to embroidering spring knives, and now he is in the army, not to mention him, even the accompanying Jinyi captains no longer carry this thing, they are all clear and watery horse chopping knives.

This saber is wide and thick. Although it is much heavier than an ordinary simple knife on weekdays, as long as you have the strength to handle it on the battlefield, this thing is absolutely invincible.

Dodging a burst of arrows, Brother Erdan had already rushed to the trench dug by the Japanese people, looking at the Japanese who were hiding in the trench and only exposed the part above his chest, Brother Erdan jumped into the trench with a loud shout.

Although he has not been in battle for a long time, Brother Erdan's martial arts have not only not regressed, but have grown a lot in the continuous practice on weekdays.

"Kill!" As soon as the word killing came out, there were two muffled sounds, and I saw two short widows in front of Brother Erdan, and suddenly flew out with blood on their chests.

The knife momentum continued, and as the body became shorter, the saber in the hand of Brother Erdan slashed forward, and there were two screams, and the widow who had a big mouth in his leg fell to the ground.

He was fast, and it was not bad to keep up with the captains in brocade clothes who came forward, and they all entered the trenches of the Japanese with a loud roar.
