On the banks of the Cheongcheon River.

The harassment of the Jurchens had been going on for the third day, but in the second half of the night it suddenly stopped, the torches were extinguished, the wilderness was pitch black, and the sound of people shouting and neighing was gradually fading away.

Zhang Fu, who heard the report, went to the high platform to take a look, listened to it again, and ordered: "Leave a thousand people to keep vigil tonight, and the others have a good rest, and fight the Jurchens tomorrow morning." ”

"Yes."

Zhang Fu smiled and looked back at Zhang Yi, Daniel Zhang, Wang Tiehan and others around him: "Tomorrow's decisive battle, are you afraid?" ”

"Afraid of what? Our army is well-equipped and well-trained, and it is not easy to eliminate a few Jurchen barbarians. Wang Tiehan "bang" patted his chest, completely forgetting that he was also a Jurchen.

Zhang Fu smiled, waved his hand and said, "You go back and rest, tomorrow morning the decisive battle, this general will fight the Jurchens in a battle." This general wants them to understand that there are only two choices for the Ming banner: death or surrender! ”

"Yes, General." Zhang Yi and the others were very excited, gearing up, waiting for tomorrow's battle.

......

The next day, as soon as the sun rose, there was a thunderous sound of horses' hooves and smoke and dust around Zhang Fu's camp.

The sound of horses' hooves gradually stopped, and a large number of cavalry appeared in front, on the left and on the right of Zhang Fu, and they shouted some Jurchen words in their mouths, Zhang Fu listened to it, it was just some scolding and ridiculing words, he looked back at the Qingchuan River behind him, then picked up the binoculars and looked at it for a while, sneered a few times, and then said to Zhuo Jing: "Lord Zhuo, look at the other side." ”

Zhuo Jing took the binoculars and looked at it, and said angrily: "It seems that North Korea is determined to fight against the Ming Dynasty, and the Anzhou defenders look like they are completely lively." ”

When Zhang Fu saw Zhuo Jing's appearance, he felt a little disdainful in his heart, we are here to grab other people's territory, North Korea did not fight, but only used the Jurchens to attack, which is already relatively restrained. Still, huh......

Zhang Fu observed the enemy's formation, and then said: "Lord Zhuo, please see, the enemies in front and on the left are scattered and disorderly, they should be Jurchens, but the enemy on the right is in a strict formation, and the last general has never seen such a neat formation of the Jurchens, so the last general can assert that they are pretending to be the Korean army." ”

"What?" Zhuo Jing looked at it with a telescope: "It seems to be." After a pause, he said, "General Zhang, how to break the enemy?" ”

"My lord, please see, the Korean army on the right, and the front should be the main force of the Jurchens, because their formation is more neat, and more importantly, the equipment is much better; And on the left should be some Jurchens from small tribes, they are very scattered, and they are still performing horse skills in front of the battle, which is simply looking for death. ”

"Well, what is the general going to do?"

"Don't rush yet, wait."

After a while, the camp gate opened, and Zhang Yi rushed to the front of the battle alone, asking in a loud voice what the Jurchens wanted to do, whether they wanted money, goods, or officials?

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused the other side to burst into laughter, and Li Zhongzhong's tears of laughter flowed out, and he said breathlessly: "Brother Meng, this Zhang Fu is so interesting, how can you ask such a question, are you blowing him too godly?" ”

"Ahem," Brother Meng's Timur laughed dryly twice, and said: "Actually, my brother has never dealt with Zhang Fu, he has listened to others, but it is true that he is cruel, he once threw disobedient people into the snow to freeze to death, threw them under the ice cave to drown, and threw them into the fire to burn to death, and the Jurchens in Liaodong trembled when they heard his name. ”

"Oh, it seems that my father has a point, he said: 'The more cruel he is, he is often cowardly, and he needs to cover his cowardice with cruelty.'" You see, isn't Zhang Fu such a person? ”

"Well, it's very likely, Lao Tzu shot this shouter!" Brother Timur pulled his bow and set up an arrow, and the bow was like a full moon, and an arrow was shot.

"Whoosh", shouting Zhang Yiyi locked his head, his helmet was shot off, frightened him to lower his body, while shouting and scolding, while turning the horse's head and running back, when he ran to the camp, he even fell off the horse, and couldn't get up for a long time, or two people came out of the camp to help him up, and then quickly closed the camp gate. Seeing this, the Jurchens burst into laughter.

After a while, a person stood up on the top of a carriage, although the Jurchens couldn't see clearly, they could feel that it was that Zhang Yi, because he was jumping and scolding, scolding the Jurchens for not being faithful, and having the ability to come over, and fight with the Zhang family's grandfather for three hundred rounds.

Seeing Zhang Yi's clumsy performance, the Jurchens expressed their disdain with their actions, some shouted and scolded, some urinated in the direction of the camp, and some approached the camp with horses and shot Zhang Yi with bows and arrows. Encouraged by this, the Jurchens gradually approached the camp, and the formation became more and more scattered.

There were 15,000 or 6,000 Jurchens assembled this time, led by Li Zhongzhong and Meng's brother Timur, and the Korean army was about 5,000 people, led by Li Fangyuan's confidant Jin Juyi, but before the action, Li Fangyuan strictly ordered Jin Juyi to focus on surveillance, and let the Jurchens do everything.

Jin Ju, who was riding on the horse, looked at the ugliness of the Jurchens, shook his head and said: "The Jurchens are really incompetent and undisciplined, and if the other party suddenly attacks at this moment, they will definitely be defeated." "Immediately send someone to see Li Zhongzhong and Meng's brother Timur, and order them to rectify the formation and not disobey.

When the herald arrived, Meng's brother Timur and Li Zhongzhong were laughing, because the Ming army in the camp began to shoot at the Jurchens, but unfortunately the bowstring was weak, and the shooting was not far, and the Jurchens became more and more arrogant, and some people even grabbed about 20 zhang outside the camp.

Hearing Jin Juyi's order, the two were very unhappy, but they didn't dare not listen, so they had to withdraw the order. After hearing the order to withdraw the army, the Jurchens complained and were having fun. For a while, the Jurchen formation became more and more scattered, because some people retreated according to the order, while others were scolding and refused to retreat.

At this moment, "bang, bang", a large number of muskets appeared in the camp, the Jurchens fell one by one, the neighing of horses and screams were endless, the Jurchens were suddenly attacked, and in a panic, the camp gate was opened, Wang Tiehan, Daniel Zhang, and Zhang Yi each led a thousand cavalry, like a tiger out of the cage, to pounce on the frightened Jurchens.

The Jurchens wanted to fight, but the Ming army on the opposite side raised the crossbow arrows in their hands at the same time, pulled the trigger in unison, "whoosh", and for a while the arrows rained down, "Ah! Yes! Yes! The Jurchens in the front row frequently screamed and fell off their horses. After the crossbow arrows were fired, Wang Tiehan took the lead, rushed into the formation, slashed and killed, there was no general under the sword, Daniel Zhang was not to be outdone, and followed closely behind, Zhang Yi's men took out new crossbow arrows and continued to sneak attack the Jurchens.

Three-pronged, the Jurchens held on for less than a stick of incense, and they were immediately defeated, watching tens of thousands of Jurchens in the wilderness being killed by the Ming army far less than them and running away, Li Zhongzhong was stunned for a while, not knowing what to do. Brother Timur next to him pulled him hard: "Big brother, what else do you want?" Hurry up and run, want to die? ”

"But, but? There are so many of us, how can we lose in such a short time? ”

"Big brother, go back and think slowly, let's go, the Ming army is about to kill."

"No, ask General Kim for help!"

"What, Jin Ju ran away early in the morning, you see?"

"What?"

Li Zhongzhong turned his head to look in Jin Juyi's direction, but found that Jin Juyi's army had turned its horse and walked away.

"How can he be like this, Jin Juyi, I won't let you go!"

However, roaring to roaring, anger to anger, Li Zhongzhong was not a fool, so he had to flee with his fierce brother Timur.

"The North Korean army has run away, Wen Bi, what should we do?"

"Leave him alone, I'll have a chance to settle accounts with them in the future."

"Okay." Zhuo Jing looked at the Korean army in the distance, and said a little unwillingly.

On March 26, the third year of Jianwen, Zhang Fu, the guard of Tieling in the Ming Dynasty, defeated 15,000 Jurchens with 5,000 people on the bank of the Qingchuan River, and the Ming army pursued and killed more than 50 miles. According to statistics after the war, more than 3,000 Jurchens were beheaded, more than 5,000 were captured, and more than 8,000 horses were captured.

Since then, when the Jurchens saw Zhang Fu's banner, they trembled and did not dare to look up.
