Night, the head of the city in the west of the river.

"Commander-in-chief, I'm going!"

"Well, be careful on the road, and pay attention to the orders of the city head!"

"Yes! The end will understand! ”

Geng Xuan waved his hand, and the east gate facing the Xiliao River was quietly opened a gap, and Wang Zhong led a team of men and horses out of the city quietly, and behind them, the city gate closed silently.

After about ten minutes, gongs, drums, cannons, gunshots and shouts suddenly sounded over the city......

The Warat army was then awakened, and Eseku hurriedly got up in his clothes and went to the lookout to check, and found that the head of Hexi City was full of people and the sound of cannons shook the sky.

Although the artillery could not hit so far, it still frightened the Warat army, and Eseku immediately ordered the whole army to be on alert to prevent the Ming army from playing any tricks.

The sound of the cannons continued for about half an hour, and when the people of Warat were not sleepy, the sound of torches at the head of the city suddenly disappeared, like a dead city.

Eseku knew that he was in trouble, this was a typical harassment tactic, so he ordered to take turns to rest, and if the Ming army approached, he could use bows and crossbows to meet them, and he could not go out of the camp to meet them.

Sure enough, after an hour or so, the city began to beat gongs and drums, and fire cannons and guns again.

Because of the order of the Eseku, the Warat army was not flustered, and it was necessary to sleep and be vigilant.

After doing this several times, Eseku felt that something was wrong, and there were cannon shots, noises, shouts and curses on the periphery of the camp, in the depths of the woods, and even in the mountains on the north bank of the West Liao River.

The Chinese army was camped on the banks of the Xiliao River, with the left flank on the north bank of the Xiliao River and the right flank on the hilly terrain near the southern railway.

Eseku could even hear the neighing of horses from the north shore, and of course there was some confusion between the Chinese army and the left flank.

......

Standing on the lookout, his face pale, he remembered what Baire had said during the day: this place was not suitable for cavalry fighting, and he didn't think so, because the hills here were not tall, just some dirt slopes, and the impact was not great.

But I didn't expect that at night, this "unsuitable" was infinitely magnified, in the camp, Eseku could not see the Ming army harassing in the distance, and sent cavalry to drive away, but often ambushed, sometimes it was an iron thistle, sometimes it was a musket, sometimes it was a crossbow arrow, and sometimes it was the legendary "palm thunder".

Of course, the Warat army was not completely unsuccessful, and after paying a heavy price, Warat finally captured a few Ming prisoners.

But the words of the captives made Eseku a little unbelievable, according to the captives, there were not many troops in the cities of Hexi and Hedong, and there were only 10,000 people in total, and they were extremely empty.

But, is it true?

Eseku looked at Hexi City, where there was still the sound of "dong dong" drums, and then he turned his head to look at Baire, and found that Baire was staring at Hexi City with squinted eyes, and the muscles in his jaw twitched from time to time, and it seemed that it was a little difficult to choose.

After a long time, Baire gritted his teeth and arched his hand: "Great leader, it seems that the captives are not lying, Hexi City is indeed empty." ”

"Really? So we ...... Should we take Hexi City? ”

"No," Baire shook his head this time, and his tone was resolute: "Great Chief, the current situation is extremely unfavorable to our army, this valley is undulating and hilly, which is favorable to the infantry and not to the cavalry, especially at night; In addition, the unclear friend or foe of the land is a great disaster for our army; The morale of the Ming army is high, and its courage and strength are beyond the expectations of the last general, and even if our army captures Hexi City, the losses may not be small. ”

"We shouldn't have participated in the war between the Dibaonu and the Ming people, the so-called long-distance and close attack, even if we occupy Hexi City, defeat the Ming army, and even occupy the entire northeast, the only thing that benefits is Modong Mongolia, and it is impossible for me to expand an inch of land, at most I will get some wealth and children!"

"That's why the last general suggested ending this useless and dangerous war."

"That ......" Eseku was really moved this time, he withdrew his gaze from Hexi City, and was about to speak, but his eyes widened suddenly, and he raised his hand to the east: "That...... That...... What is it? ”

Baire immediately turned his head, but his eyes were also straight, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

In fact, it was not only the Eseku who found out, but also many people in the Warat army in the camp, and everyone looked at the sky like dementia.

From a distance, in Hexi City, a fire flew into the sky, then a second fire, and a third fire......

About ten minutes later, more than a dozen fires floated in the sky above Hexi City, and then under the gaze of the Warat people, they actually floated towards the Warat camp.

"Ahh Hell! ”

"Nonsense! That's a god! ”

"Are we at war with the gods?"

......

There was immediate confusion in the Warat army, and some soldiers even put down their swords and guns, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, praying for forgiveness from the gods......

Eseku sweated on his forehead, this, what is this?

Suddenly, he heard the sound of "clucking" teeth fighting next to him, and found that Bai Re, who was still resourceful just now, was trembling all over, his teeth were fighting, and he couldn't speak.

"Baige, what are you doing?" Eseku shouted.

"Big ...... Big...... Leader, the Ming army is a ghost! Baire looked at the "ghost" fire in the sky, and then looked at the field that had suddenly quieted down, and suddenly shouted: "Great chief! Run! Let's run! ”

As he spoke, Baire dragged Eseku and ran off the stage, shouting as he ran: "Everyone run!" Let's go back to Warat! ”

In an instant, there was even more chaos in the Warat camp.

Furious, Eseku pulled out his saber and put it on Baire's neck: "Baire, you're crazy! That's not a ghost, that's ...... That's ......"

Eseku suddenly thought of it and looked up at the sky: "That, that's a flying ball!" ”

It's a pity that no one believes or hears what Esekul says, and now, they trust their instincts even more.

......

"That's good, the goal is so clear, the Warat people are really good people!"

Looking at the chaotic scene of the shaking torches and noisy voices below, Guan Chengfeng, the captain of the flying team, laughed and said, "Quick! Fast! Drop the bomb now, don't miss the opportunity! ”

"Yes!"

The fire rope was lit, snorting, and the explosives bag fell from the sky, like a thunderbolt, with a "boom" sound, and there were no more living people more than ten meters away from the landing point......

Then, the fire oil that fell from the sky set fire to the camp tents and even the grasslands......

In an instant, the Varat camp was plunged into chaos, and Esekul could no longer restrain the army, so he could only flee westward with the army.

Seeing this kind of scene in the telescope, Geng Xuan was overjoyed: "Come on, beat the drums, and order Wang Zhong to attack!" ”

"Yes!"

"Put on armor for General Ben, and order the cavalry to cross the river immediately and follow General Ben to chase and kill Wara!"

"Yes!"

With the sound of drums, the 3,000 cavalry led by Wang Zhong jumped up from the hills and slaughtered the chaotic Warat camp!

Then, the gate of Hexi City opened, and Geng Xuan led two thousand cavalry to rush out.

At the same time, there was a thunderous shout of killing in the wilderness and on the mountains......

The chaotic Warat army was powerless to resist and fled westward in defeat!

......

When the sky was bright, Geng Xuan and Wang Zhong stopped the pursuit and collected their troops and returned to the city.

In this battle, Geng Xuan led the army to defeat the strong with the weak, and only defeated the Warat army at a small price, which is known as the "Second Battle of Jinshan" in history.
