Song Wei has a lot of contempt for Wu Xiang, just because Wu Xiang is actually a coward, and he has a bad record of running away without regard for his allies. To tell the truth, Song Wei was unwilling to go to the aid of Daling River with this person, otherwise he wouldn't know when he would be sold by this guy.

But there is no way, at present, Jinzhou's troops are only made with him, Song Wei and Wu Xiang, and it is Sun Chengzong, the head of Liaodong, who personally ordered the two to help, and none of them can disobey.

Besides, it was his Wu Xiang's brother-in-law who was besieged in this Dalinghe City, he shouldn't be able to see death and not save him, right?

"I hope so!" Wu Xiang replied absentmindedly. To put it nicely, when did the Ming army beat the Jin soldiers? It was the so-called Ningjin victory back then, which was also the result of defending the city, not that Yuan Chonghuan and the Tartars were so good.

But there is no way, who called it Sun Chengzong who asked us to help, the military order must be obeyed.

There is a post station called Jiming Post more than ten miles east of Jinzhou, which is usually a rest post station halfway from Jinzhou to Daling River, but at this time, the Jin army besieged the city, and the surrounding post station strongholds are estimated to have been occupied by the Tartars.

When Wu Xiang and Song Wei led the army to the Jiming Station, suddenly a thick fog spread out in the sky, and the figure could not be seen clearly within ten steps, Song Wei led the army in front, and could not help but be shocked when he saw this, and he could not see where the enemy was in the dense fog, just like in the dark night, he could be attacked by the enemy at any time and did not know.

Song Wei hurriedly ordered his subordinates to stop on the spot, wait for the fog to clear before marching, and at the same time sent someone to notify the Wu Xiang troops who followed closely behind to be stationed on the spot, so as not to accidentally hit and injure his own people.

The terrain of Jimingyi is dangerous, and the Houjin army did ambush heavy troops here to wait for reinforcements from the Ming army and ambush and defeat it.

However, a sudden and overwhelming fog made the Houjin army's calculations come to naught. Originally, the Houjin army had seen thousands of Ming cavalry coming from the direction of Jinzhou from a distance, but they lost the trace of the Ming army in an instant.

The people in charge of setting up an ambush here were Belle Mang Gurtai and Azig, Azig had already had itchy hands when he saw the Ming army coming, thinking that he could kill it later, but it was a bubble, and he couldn't help but feel unhappy, and scolded: "What the hell is this weather!" I can't even see the ghost shadow of the barbarians in the south! ”

Mang Gurtai was of medium stature, with a round face and slightly chubby, and was wiping his nine-ring golden knife at this time, and said unhurriedly: "Twelfth brother, don't be impatient, we can't see the barbarians of the Southern Kingdom, don't they also see us?" Now that the fog is so thick that you can't see where the enemy is, don't move lightly, and it's not too late to clean them up when the fog clears! ”

"That's what the third brother said." Azig said stupidly, thought for a moment and suddenly said, "But what if the barbarians come to attack us?" If they concentrate their forces to attack us, it will be difficult for us to dispatch our troops in the thick fog! ”

Mang Gurtai smiled: "Old Twelve, are you confused? When did this Ming barbarian dare to take the initiative to attack our Dajin's Eight Banners warriors? And they can't see where we are! ”

Azig laughed wryly: "That's right! But I'm afraid that they will come by mistake, and no one will be able to tell who is who, which will be a bit difficult to do. ”

Mang Gurtai frowned and said, "So Old Twelve, you have to control your people, don't let anyone who doesn't have a long eye move and expose our position to the barbarians of the Ming Kingdom." ”

"Third brother, don't worry, none of those guys under my command dare to move without my orders!" Azig said.

Mang Gurtai was about to say something, when suddenly, Niu Lubo Rangzhen beside him screamed: "Lord Belle, look, what is that!" ”

Mang Gurtai and Azig looked in the direction of Bo Rangzhen's finger, only to see a white light suddenly flash in the dense fog several miles away, and the tent of the Ming army camp was faintly visible!

Azig laughed wildly: "Hahaha! It was the camp of the Ming army! God help me! Boys! Come with me and kill the dog! ”

Azig took the lead and led his subordinates with white flags and golden soldiers to run straight towards the place where the white light flashed.

Mang Gurtai laughed and said, "Old Twelve, don't worry, leave some for the third brother!" ”

Saying that, Mang Gurtai also led his blue flag soldiers and horses to cover the past.

Originally, the four fields were all dense fog, no one could see anyone, and both sides were in the same situation, but now the white light accurately marked the camp of the Ming army.

Not to explain the difference in strength between the army and the Jin army, just one is in the light and the other is in the dark, and this battle is undefeated and lost.

Song Wei looked at the white light and his camp tent floated up, and couldn't help but sink in his heart, there was a thick fog all around, only his camp tent was revealed by the white light, could it be that the sky was going to kill me?

Suddenly, he heard the sound of killing in the northeast corner, and the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, Song Wei knew that something was wrong, it must be that the Tartars took the opportunity to attack the camp.

Song Wei was frightened and did not mess up, and immediately issued an order: "Order the general Ma Ke to lead the guerrilla Zhang Kefan and Han Dongliang troops to resist the enemy outside the camp gate, don't panic, just shoot arrows at the northeast corner where the sound of horses' hooves comes from!" ”

Immediately, he ordered his own soldiers to go to Wu Xiangbu to inform the Tartars of the attack, and asked Wu to lead his troops to quickly come to resist the Tartar cavalry, so as to prevent the front army from being defeated by the Jin soldiers and causing a rout.

The shouting and killing sound in the dense fog shook the sky, but I didn't know how many people there were, and countless sharp arrows shuttled back and forth in the dense fog, and the ones who were hit by the arrows did not know how much.

However, most of the arrows are the Ming army, and the victory and defeat have already been determined before the battle has even begun.

"General, give the order to withdraw! The brethren couldn't stand it! ”

If it is an open fire, under the same conditions, 6,000 cavalry and the Tartars will fight, even if they are defeated, it is impossible to rout, because the Tartars will not be able to divide a large number of troops to intercept the reinforcements, and they will have to besiege the city.

But now that this is obviously a serious disadvantage to the Ming army, Song Weibu is obviously unjustly defeated and saddened to lose.

One by one, the soldiers around him were shot and fell, but Song Wei still wanted to hold on, because he saw that the dense fog had gradually thinned, and after a while, the sun would come out! At that time, you can fight with the Tartars with a clear sword and a gun.

But Song Wei could not wait for the moment of the decisive battle with the Tartars, because his subordinates had already retreated one after another.

Han Dongliang was covered in blood, and staggered over under the escort of several personal soldiers, and said sadly: "General, quickly retreat!" Wu Xiang's dog thief ran away with people! ”

What the? Run!

"General, General Ma Shen is dead!"

"Zhang Kefan is dead!"

"General, all of Ding's friends were killed in battle!"

......

The rout continued to report the bad news of the defeat, Song Wei knew that the general trend had gone, especially Wu Xiang withdrew with his soldiers and horses, leaving him a lone army, if he didn't retreat, I was afraid it would be too late, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

Song Wei led his headquarters to retreat to Jinzhou City under the cover of the thick fog, and only about 1,600 people were left of more than 3,000 people, more than half of which were lost. The second rescue of the Ming army was thus a complete failure.

After Song Wei withdrew to Jinzhou City, he ran angrily to ask Wu Xiang why he had fled from the battle, leaving himself to flee first.

Wu Xiang argued that the fog was too dense at that time, and he had no idea where the friendly troops were and where the enemy was, so in order to preserve his strength and prevent the soldiers from dying for no reason, he had to retreat to Jinzhou first.

Seeing this, Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong, knew about Wu Xiang's shameful behavior of abandoning friendly troops, and wanted to severely punish Wu Xiang for the crime of not fighting, but after thinking about it, he had no foundation in Liaodong and was just an empty shell governor, and his ancestral family, including Wu Xiang, was the head of the Liaodong army, and his family was intertwined in the Liaodong army system, and he was afraid that he could not do anything easily.

What's more, at this time, Da Linghe is in a hurry, there are no soldiers and horses to send, and the imperial court reinforcements are delayed, if Wu Xiang is punished again, I am afraid that the generals under him will not listen to their own dispatch and command, and how to solve the siege of Da Linghe City at that time?
