Text Chapter 240 Return

On the official road from Zhenbei Fort to Jingbian Fort, a large group of knights were galloping towards Jingbian Fort in a hurry.

"General, you said that Shen Yiyuan's gang of thieves has the help of the Mongols, can Li Jiye hold Jingbian Fort?" Yang Desheng asked with a worried face.

It is said that Yang Desheng's wife has just conceived a child, and their old Yang family has a future, and it is because of Yang Desheng, an iron-clad man, that he has been a little uneasy since he heard that the rebels and the Mongols joined forces to besiege Jingbian Fort.

Zhang Tieniu, Liu Renjie, and Ma Wenshan listened to Yang Desheng's words, and also thought of their wives and children in their hearts, so they were all very worried, and they all looked at Liu Renyu together, and saw how their generals replied.

Liu Renyu's own wife and children are also in Jingbian Fort, and he is naturally a little worried, but now is not the time to show his feelings, so he said solemnly: "What if there are Mongolians to help!" Our Jingbian Fort is garrisoned by 1,200 elite soldiers and guarded by perfect city defense facilities, so how can we not hold it after being besieged for three days! Don't you even believe in your robes? ”

Yang Desheng was reprimanded by Liu Renyu, first smiled a little wryly, and then collected his thoughts, and said solemnly: "At the beginning, Ergou only had hundreds of recruits in his hands, and there were no artillery, firecrackers, and he could also resist thousands of thieves for more than ten days. ”

"If you know, it's good." Liu Renyu said with a cold face.

"General, there are still 10 miles to go, we will go to Jingbian Fort, dare to ask the general, how should we act when we get to Jingbian Fort?" Ma Wenshan asked Liu Renyu in words.

"There are many enemy troops, and the enemy situation is unknown, we should go through the tunnel into the fort, meet with the defenders in the fort, and wait for me to find out the enemy situation, and then make plans." Liu Renyu replied.

"Yes, General." The generals responded to each other.

"Where is the place to learn martial arts?" Liu Renyu asked loudly.

"Learn martial arts." Wang Xuewu, who had been following Liu Renyu's left side, responded.

"Can you allow one person and one horse to walk at the same time in the tunnels you dug in the past?"

"Back to the general's words, the tunnel dug by the lowly rank was nine feet high and six feet wide according to your orders, which is wide enough for one man and one horse to walk at the same time." Wang Xuewu responded.

"Okay, where is the larger entrance for the brigade to enter?"

"Back to the general's words, according to this, there is an abandoned village in the 5 miles, and there is a cave in the wall, which is very wide, and we will transform it into an entrance for the army to pass."

"Very good, hurry up and go straight to the passage." Liu Renyu commanded loudly.

Under the leadership of Liu Renyu, everyone continued to ride their horses and whips, and after running for 5 miles with all their might, when they were about to arrive at the passage where the entrance of the tunnel was located, they did not watch out for the sudden shouting of killing in front of them, and the shouting and scolding were endless.

"Renjie, what's going on ahead?" Liu Renyu asked Liu Renjie.

"If you go back to the general, it must be that Sun Wuxi, who is exploring the way ahead, has discovered the enemy sentry." Liu Renjie looked ahead and replied.

It is said that when the Jingbian Fort army was marching, Liu Renjie asked Sun Wuxian to take 20 cavalry to explore the road first, and as a result, he encountered dozens of Mongolian sentinels.

However, it was said that the leader of the Mongol army, Otoktra, led the army to the city of Jingbianbao, and in addition to being wary of Shen Yiyuan's department, he was bored watching the people of the Ming Kingdom captured by Shen Yiyuan to attack the city.

Originally, the Ming Dynasty was already full of holes and the military was extremely weak, and Tra thought that the Ming army was very likely to not be able to send reinforcements, but he was in the enemy territory and was uneasy, so he still sent sentry spies to investigate the military situation from all sides.

When sending outposts to investigate the enemy's situation, Terra heard Shen Yiyuan say that Liu Renyu had been the general manager of Zhenbei Fort north of Jingbian Fort, and the current guard of Zhenbei Fort was Liu Renyu's cronies, and maybe Zhenbei Fort would have a large army go south to rescue, so he sent more than 30 sentinels to watch the road in the north and see if Zhenbei Fort would send reinforcements to save Jingbian Fort.

The 30 elite Mongol knights received Terra's order, and they galloped back and forth on the road from Jingbian Fort to Zhenbei Fort every day to observe the enemy's situation.

They inspected for three days in a row, but they did not see a single soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and it was not until the fourth day that they found some movement.

"Mengen, have you ever heard the sound of horses' hooves?" A Mongolian knight asked his companion.

"There was a sound." The Mongol named Mengen replied.

"Hassan, could it be that the reinforcements of the Ming people are coming?" Mengen asked the Mongols who had just asked him a question.

"The mountains are blocking the view, let's run over and take a look." Hassan replied first, and then he and his companions ran all the way, rounding a mountain beam, and saw a large group of knights fifty paces away from him.

These knights were wearing red armor and dressed like that, and Hassan and the others knew at a glance that they were Ming troops.

"Ming Army!?"

"Beiyu!?"

"Kill!" After Hassan saw that the knight in front of him was the Ming army, he took the lead and rushed towards the Ming army without saying a word.

Hassan and other Mongols fought with the Ming army many times, because the Ming army that fought with them refused to contribute to the death because of military salary and training.

Over time, Hassan and other Mongols also said that the Ming army was so greedy for life and afraid of death, so when they saw the Ming army, their first reaction was not to immediately turn their horses and leave, and return to the barracks to report the news, but to draw their sabers and go forward to do melee combat.

"It's good to come!" Sun Wuxian took a cursory look and found that there were 30 Mongols, but there were only 20 on his side, but he was not afraid to shout loudly at his subordinates: "Sons, kill the northern captives and make meritorious contributions." ”

"Yes, grandpa." When the cavalry received the order, they all responded loudly, and then they each took out blunt weapons such as iron bones, maces, and axes, and killed the Mongol cavalry with shouts.

Hassan and other Mongols were very puzzled when they saw that these Mongols not only did not run, but rushed over, but on the battlefield, how could they have time to think about why these Ming soldiers dared to fight in front of their Mongol warriors?

When the Mongol knights saw that the Ming army had killed them without saying a word, they also screamed, pinched the horse's belly, raised the speed of the horse, and rushed straight towards the Ming army on the opposite side.

"This guy Mongol only wears leather armor, which is easy to kill. The blade in his hand is nothing more than a saber, and he can't penetrate the armor of our army, so he will win this battle. Sun Wuxian slightly observed the enemy's equipment for a while, and secretly thought to himself.

Those Mongols also said that the Ming army they met was the same as the one they had met before, they scattered as soon as they fought, ran away as soon as they scattered, and died when they ran.

But when I really handed it over, I realized that I was really wrong.

When the Ming army on the side of Jingbian Fort engaged the Mongolian cavalry, they relied on their own three-layer heavy armor and were not afraid of slashing and slashing, so that when they were fighting, they did not need the combat method of fighting with blades, but ignored the Mongols and used a lose-lose style to fight the Mongols with their own blades.

"These people are crazy!" When the Mongols saw that the Ming army seemed to want to die together, they couldn't help but be horrified, and they had no choice but to bite the bullet and attack each other with their weapons.

'Bell! The Mongols' sabers slashed at the armor of the Jingbianbao army, causing a burst of sparks, and then all of them were broken.

The knights of the Jingbian Fort Army were stabbed by the Mongols, but they only had a huge pain in their chests and their blood and qi surging for a while, and there were no dead or injured people who fell from their horses.

On the other hand, on the side of the Mongols, because they only wore leather armor, their protection was weak, and as long as they were hit by the blunt weapons of the Jingbian Fort Army, they all broke their bones and tendons and fell under their horses.

At the end of this round of fighting, 15 horsemen fell from their horses on the Mongol side, but none of them fell from their horses on the Jingbianbao army.

"The living Buddha is above, this group of Ming troops is really powerful, it's not easy to mess with, hurry back to the camp and report to Tra Otok."

When the Mongols saw such a battle loss ratio, how could they dare to fight again, they turned their horses' heads one after another, left the main road, and fled in all directions.

Fortunately, this group of Mongols has been inquiring about news here for the past few days, and the terrain here is very clear, so it is no problem to escape and go back.

"Grandpa, the Mongols ran away, dare to ask if we are chasing or not?" When a knight saw that the Mongols had fled, he hurriedly asked Sun Wuai.

"Don't chase it, the Mongolian horsemanship is very good, we can't catch up no matter what, so cut off the head of the Mongolian, hurry back and report to the general."

"Yes, grandpa." When the knights received the order, they dismounted and cut off the heads of the Mongols, and then they marched north on their horses and went to report to Liu Renyu.
