The night was dark, and when the waning moon rose to the middle of the sky, Man Gui led his 5,000 cavalry troops, and by the moonlight, he cautiously touched Cao Zhuangyi.

The waning moon after the Mid-Autumn Festival emits a silvery white light in the autumn wind of Liaodong, illuminating the hoarfrost everywhere in the four fields of Liaodong. Although the moonlight of the waning moon is far less bright than that of the Mid-Autumn moon, it is enough to illuminate the path of the Ming cavalry.

After more than 10 miles of road under the moonlight, the Ming army quietly came to the vicinity of Caozhuang Station and quietly stopped about two miles away from Houjin Yingzhai.

The army was around, Man Gui looked at the waning moon in the sky, and waved his hand firmly in the direction of Houjin Yingzhai. With Man Gui's gesture, more than a dozen of Man Gui's cronies left the battle and touched the Houjin camp without hesitation.

Under the dim moonlight, the family members who were uniformly covered in gray cloaks took a few steps with the help of the terrain and smoothly blended into the moonlight. It is difficult to distinguish them clearly from the rugged and undulating ground if they are not the ones who have been staring at them.

Looking at the cautious sneaking family, Man Gui's heart slowly rose.

Whether they can inflict heavy damage on the enemy depends on whether the family can sneak in and open the gate of Houjin's camp.

The Tartars in the camp are the main force of the gold inlaid white flag, which was confirmed by Man Gui personally in the evening. Confirming that the opponent in the camp was the main force of the Jurchen Eight Banners with white flags, which shocked Man Gui a lot.

The main force of the Tartar inlaid with white flags appeared here, which means that the Tartars under Ningyuan City should be the main force of the Tartar army. The Tartar army has arrived in Ningyuan, and the result of Jinzhou can be imagined.

Although he has always disliked Zhao Shujiao, at that moment, Man Gui still felt a little sad for the Ming army in Jinzhou.

The bottom of the camp with white flags is full of Gui I have heard of it. After Nurhachi's death, several of the Eight Banners of the Later Jin Dynasty changed their flags. The current inlaid white flag is replaced by the inlaid yellow flag directly under the direct jurisdiction of the original Houjin Laonu.

In other words, the current white flag tartar is no longer the weakest flag in the original succession. The current combat power of the white flag is also one of the best in the Jurchen Eight Banners.

Although he has been taking the initiative to fight, Man Gui knows his own combat strength. Man Gui knew very well that these battle-hardened soldiers with white flags were not something he could confront head-on with a light cavalry that had only been trained for a month. To defeat this white-flaged Tartar with more than 10,000 people, Man Gui's only chance is to attack at night.

His eyes kept switching back and forth between the camp and the sneaker, watching the sneaker gradually approach the wall inlaid with white flags, and Man Gui's heart was about to jump out of his throat with nervousness.

This is the most critical moment, the slightest mistake, the surprise attack of the Ming army will be lost.

Near, near; In, in.

Seeing that the sneakers approached the wall one by one, and quietly crossed the wall one by one, and there was no violent reaction in the camp, Man Gui was overjoyed.

"Order, press forward, prepare to rush and kill." Man Gui suppressed the excitement in his heart and quietly ordered.

As Man Gui's order was quietly conveyed, the lurking Ming army, all of which led their war horses, slowly began to move closer to the direction of the Tartar camp.

It's done.

Seeing a clear arc-shaped fire at the gate of the village, Man Gui couldn't care about it, he pulled out his thickened large Yanling knife, roared and swung forward: "Get on the horse, assault!" ”

In the roar, the low-lying Ming army all suddenly rose up; In the roar, the Ming army began to urge all the horses; With the roar, the Ming army launched the fiercest charge with the order.

The family members who infiltrated the camp saw that the Ming army had begun to charge, and no longer paid attention to the sound, and they all began to let go. They quickly destroyed and knocked down the gate of the wall, lifted the horse in front of the door, and opened a smooth road for the Ming army to attack.

In the open field, with the Ming army's rows of urging horses, from trotting to galloping, the sound of horses' hooves resounded like thunder.

The Ming army is really attacking the camp, great!

Azig, who was dressed energetically, jumped up as soon as he heard the news of the Ming army's attack on the camp. There was no panic in his sleepy eyes, but a smile of excitement.

Azig is not stupid. In the evening, those who were sent by Azig to circumnavigate the center and right were the most experienced scouts with white flags. They are not just going to show off their might.

When leaving the Houjin camp, Huang Taiji repeatedly told Azig to be careful of the reinforcements of the Ming army. Although Azig was impatient, he still took Huang Taiji's words to heart.

After leading the army to Ningyuan City, the first thing Azig did was to send several scouts to investigate the possible reinforcements of the Ming army.

Behind Ning Yuan, the nearest city was the middle right place, how could this Azig not be extra careful. In this way, Mangui's army entered the city, and the traces left on the ground were discovered by experienced white-flaged scouts.

When he received the report that there might be reinforcements from the Ming army hidden in the city of the center and right, Azig really felt bad in his heart. Huang Taiji asked him to be careful of the reinforcements of the Ming army, and the reinforcements of the Ming army came really early.

Knowing that there were reinforcements from the Ming army hidden in the center-right station, Azig did not lead the army to block the city gate of the center-right station.

After seeing the cruelty of the siege of Ningyuan City, Azig did not have any thoughts of attacking Zhongyou.

Azig deliberately set fire to the houses of Caozhuang Yi, intending to let the billowing smoke reveal the location of his camp; He also deliberately reduced the patrol sentry around the camp, as well as the guards and defenses around the camp.

Azig thought very simply, didn't the Ming army reinforcements come a long time ago? Then he Azig deliberately gave the Ming army a chance to attack the camp.

Azig firmly believed that the Jurchen Eight Banners Field War was invincible. I firmly believe that with his white flag, even if he is really unprepared for a surprise attack, the victor will eventually belong to him with a white flag. What's more, now he has made preparations in advance.

Of course, Azig wasn't sure if the timid Ming army would come. After all, I haven't heard about the Ming army's field battle for many years. For air defense, Azig only made preparations to prevent surprise attacks, but he was not fully armed.

When the screams at the gate and the loud impact of the gate falling to the ground came from afar, Azig's eyes were full of excitement.

"Do you really dare to come to the night attack? Then let me put a white flag to teach Ming Pig the deepest lesson! ”

Azig, who was fully awake, quickly put on his armor and excitedly picked up his weapon.

But the next moment, the sound of horses' hooves like thunder came, and Azig's face suddenly changed.

How could Azig not hear the abnormal sound of the horse's hooves? How many men and horses did this Ming army come?

How could Azig have thought that the small city of the center right was squeezed into 5,000 cavalry by Man Gui.

It's embarrassing. The long-awaited night attack of the Ming army did happen, but the scale was far from the scale he expected. How can this fishing catch a shark? Listening to the thunderous sound of horses' hooves, Azig was terrified.

The Ming cavalry with such momentum was directly put into the camp by him. Even if he had been prepared with a white flag, he would have to pay a great price to contain the impact of the Ming army. If you want to completely annihilate the Ming army, there is no hope.

This time, the white flag and the Ming army are only afraid that they will be defeated.
