、、、、、、、

This day's operation can be said to be very smooth, although it was not possible to rescue all the Xuan soldiers under Lu Xiangsheng, but there is no way to do it, but fortunately, with their containment, Hu Dawei and Yang Guozhu, the two generals, are likely to have broken through, and they can be regarded as doing their best, and Xiao Tianjian is not sad about anything. （）

The good thing is that today after they had a hard encounter with the Tartar soldiers, they have found that the Tartar soldiers are not as powerful as the legend, although the Tartar soldiers are indeed much braver than the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, but their tactics are not stronger than the Ming army, at least they are still deflated when they encounter the Xingtian Army, which also fully shows that their battle formation method is feasible, and they will never be able to defeat the Tartars.

At the end of this day, Xiao Tianjian and the generals roughly calculated that the loss of men and horses in the Tartars today was at least more than 3,000 people, which undoubtedly dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the Tartars.

The scout came to report that the Tartar soldiers had also stopped east of the Xiaozhang River after nightfall, and had no intention of crossing the river at night to attack, Xiao Tianjian smiled and said: "Dolgon and Yue Tuo are probably crying now!" Today, although they said that they defeated Lu Xiangsheng's Lu Xuan's soldiers and horses, but their losses under our hands also exceeded the losses of Lu Xiangsheng's Xuan's soldiers, it can be said that it is a battle that outweighs the losses, presumably they also know our strength, and dare not come to attack us at night, tomorrow we will pull out the camp and move towards the west Neiqiu, to meet Luo Li and Li Xin, presumably as long as we rob the grain and grass of the Neiqiu Tartar soldiers and the people they plundered, the Tartar soldiers should ponder and return to the division! ”

The generals nodded excitedly and said yes, there was no longer the kind of worry they had in the morning, they were not afraid of the Tartars sending troops to attack at night, and now they had a car battalion to defend and an artillery battalion here, but they were afraid that they would not come, if they came, they would look good, and they had long lost their fear of the Tartars in their hearts, and laughed loudly at the Tartars' vulnerability.

"Don't get carried away like this, the Tartar soldiers are not too easy to deal with, they are stoic and tenacious, but also cunning, we just hit them by surprise today, make full use of the advantage that they don't understand our tactics, only to beat them all over the ground to find teeth, if we fight again another day, the Tartar soldiers will not let us easily succeed, not to mention that today we first destroyed the Tartar Hongyi cannon, otherwise, whether we can win or not is a matter between the two, so you not only can not be careless, Be more careful in the future! Our advantage is our battle array, once the battle array is dispersed, with the personal combat strength of our soldiers, the two may not be able to kill a Tartar soldier, you must know that each of them is an old oilman who has been fighting for many years, not only fierce but also extremely strong, and it is absolutely necessary to underestimate the enemy! Have you memorized them all? Xiao Tianjian saw that after today's battle, the generals were a little carried away and began to despise the Tartar soldiers, so he immediately taught them a cold face.

The generals taught Xiao Tianjian such a lesson, and immediately calmed down, recalling the performance of the Tartars today, it is indeed as Xiao Tianjian said, the military discipline of the Tartars is not much worse than them, and there may even be surpassing, and if they give an order, they will desperately carry it out, which cannot be ignored, if they are really a little careless, if they are disrupted by the Tartars today, the consequences will be unimaginable, so the generals suddenly did not dare to be presumptuous anymore, and nodded yes one after another.

"Alright, let's all go down and rest! Take turns on duty at night, and don't let the Tartars run at night to win back a game! At the end of the day, everyone has worked hard enough! Scattered! With a wave of his hand, Xiao Tianjian drove the gang out of the big tent.

At this time, dozens of miles away from the south of this place, tens of thousands of companies and camps of the Ming army were set up for several miles, outside the barracks was a dense wooden fence, and there were tall arrow towers everywhere, but it was an orderly atmosphere, but if you look carefully, you can feel that there is an uneasy atmosphere here, and a cadre led by Gao Qiqian, the commander of the army of soldiers and horses, is very nervous, Tang Tong, the chief soldier of Miyun, Bai Guangen, the chief soldier of Jizhen, Wang Tingchen, the chief soldier of the former tun guard, and Ma Ke, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, gathered in the high tent. And the account has not received the news that is being reported.

"Enlighten the high eunuch! Today, the slave thieves Dolgon and Yue Tuo led more than 40,000 slave troops in the area of Jiazhuang in the north of Julu City, surrounded the Xuanda soldiers and horses under the command of Lu Duchen, Lu Duchen led his troops to fight fiercely for half a day, and then suddenly a Xingtian army soldiers and horses entered the battlefield, rescued Lord Lu and his remnants, first broke through the encirclement of the Jiannu army, and retreated to the Xiguo area on the west bank of the Xiaozhang River west of Julu County, and confronted the Jiannu army across the river, as for the current situation of Lord Lu, the situation is unknown!

In addition, some Xuanda soldiers and horses took the opportunity to break out, and their current direction is unknown! According to the Xuanda rout soldiers who came out of the siege at night, it was learned that Yang Guozhu, the chief military officer, may have broken through! ”

After Gao Qiqian listened, he was taken aback, Yang Tinglin rushed here the day before yesterday, asking him to send troops or transfer a batch of food to support Lu Xiangsheng, but he refused Yang Tinglin's request even in the name of the lack of food in the army and the Tartars were too big to fight, and Yang Tinglin was angry and left, and early this morning, Lu Xiangsheng sent a horse to ask for help, but Gao Qiqian still did not send a soldier to rescue Lu Xiangsheng on the grounds that the enemy situation was unknown, in fact, to put it bluntly, one did not dare, and the other was that he really hated Lu Xiangsheng too much, We must take this opportunity to see Lu Xiangsheng defeated and killed.

And the generals of the Guanning Army under his command had different thoughts, most of them were afraid that Jiannu's troops were too strong this time, and their desire to fight was not strong, so they collectively lost their voices and sat back and watched Lu Xiangsheng being surrounded by Tartar soldiers.

I thought that Lu Xiangsheng would be defeated and die this time, but I didn't think that at this juncture, a Xingtian army suddenly appeared on the battlefield and rescued Lu Xiangsheng and the remnants under his command, and the development of the situation was beyond everyone's expectations.

"How many soldiers and horses are there in the Heavenly Army? Can they afford to lose a lot in this battle? Gao Qiqian immediately asked.

According to the Xuan soldiers who broke out of the siege, the number of people who entered the battlefield was roughly less than 5,000 people, and the specific number of men and horses in the north of the Xingtian Army still needs to be found out after further exploration!

And in this battle, it is rumored that the Xingtian Army won a great victory, and did not lose many men and horses, but the Tartar side suffered a lot of losses, losing thousands of men and horses! The night did not take the general replied immediately.

Gao Qiqian and the generals in the tent all gasped after hearing this, and their faces were all very unsightly, and some of them even had expressions of disbelief.

They all know the power of the Tartar soldiers, this time Dolgon and Yue Tuo divided the two ways of the Jiannu army into the pass, the strength is very strong, after the convergence of the two armies in Tongzhou, it is even stronger, after going south, it is all the way to conquer the city, even under the Jingfu more than a dozen cities, even the emperor Sun Chengzong also died in Gaoyang City.

Although this time, because of the letter of the Xingtian Army, the current emperor did not dare to mention the matter of stabbing the Tartars to negotiate peace, and ordered Gao Qiqian to lead his troops south to pursue the Jiannu army, but on the way down from the land of Gyeonggi, Gao Qiqian never dared to fight the Jiannu army head-on, nor did he join forces with Lu Xiangsheng to deal with the Jiannu army together, so that Lu Xiangsheng's food was cut off, and then the Tartar soldiers surrounded the Jiazhuang area north of Julu.

If Gao Qi had abandoned his previous suspicions this time and led the tens of thousands of Guanning troops north to rescue Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng would not have been beaten so badly by the Jiannu army.

But Gao Qiqian has his own little abacus, afraid that Lu Xiangsheng will be able to fight and make great contributions, so he would rather sit back and watch Lu Xiangsheng be surrounded, and see that Lu Xiangsheng is about to be surrounded and annihilated by the Tartars, and will never send troops to rescue.

originally thought that after Lu Xiangsheng was destroyed by the Tartar soldiers, he could put the blame for the disadvantage of the emperor on Lu Xiangsheng's body, and there was Yang Sichang in the court, this Lu Xiangsheng had no proof of death, so he could only carry this black cauldron, not to mention that he also saw that although the current saint ordered him to lead his troops south to resist the enemy, but the determination was not strong, and more of the current saint was still worried that the Ming army would not be able to defeat the Tartar soldiers, and then too many people and horses were lost. This is also the source of his confidence not to save Lu Xiangsheng.

But what I never expected was that the Xingtian Army actually entered the battlefield with thousands of troops to rescue Lu Xiangsheng, not only rescued Lu Xiangsheng, but also was able to retreat, on the contrary, not only did not suffer heavy losses, but also killed thousands of Tartar soldiers, which is terrible! The Xingtian Army was born in a thief army, and he dared to go north and fight the Tartars, if the news reached the Jingshi, it would be really difficult for him to explain.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he immediately became furious, and said angrily: "This Lu Xiangsheng is really bold!" It has long been rumored that when Lu Xiangsheng was the governor of Xuanda and in charge of Shanxi's military affairs, he refused to work hard to suppress the thief army, it turned out that there was really such a thing, otherwise why would the thief army come here to save him now? ”

After hearing this, the generals were all chilled, each heart is really not a thing, you are watching Lu Xiangsheng to be surrounded by Tartars, and his life is hanging by a thread and he refuses to send troops to save him, and now the Xingtian Army is out of war with the imperial court, and he came here to help resist the Tartars entering the Kou, but you want to dirty Lu Xiangsheng and the Xingtian Army secretly colluded, and it is too bad to do so! It's really hard to do things with such a treacherous villain! I was accidentally sold by him!

So after hearing this, the generals all scolded in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it on the surface, after all, Gao Qiqian is a celebrity around the saint today, and it's too late for these generals to stammer, where can they dare to accuse him! So whatever he says is what he says, no one will raise the bar with him here and cry out for Lu Xiangsheng.

But Gao Qiqian, the eunuch, rolled his eyes, but he thought of a bad idea, stood up and walked back and forth in the big tent a few times, and suddenly stopped and said to the generals: "You must know that the Xingtian thief army is a big trouble for the imperial court, and this time they are brazenly going north, how can they come to resist what Jiannu?" I must want to take this opportunity to go north to snatch the land of Jingfu, and we are deeply favored by the emperor, how can we just sit idly by? It is really hateful for Jiannu to enter the prison, but the Xingtian Thief Army is also a tumor of my Ming Dynasty, if we don't take this opportunity to get rid of it, we will inevitably be suspected of colluding with the thieves!

Listen to the order, in this case, we will not easily let go of these thieves by taking this opportunity this time, and tomorrow we will immediately set up camp and go to the Xiguo area to destroy them in one fell swoop! Those who dare to be in battle without dying, this supervision will engage in military law! ”

After listening to the generals, their hearts were even more cold, in fact, these Guan Ning generals were still very impressed by the Xingtian Army's move to the north, regardless of life and death to go to the battlefield to rescue Lu Xiangsheng, after all, Lu Xiangsheng and the Xuanda soldiers under his command were also their colleagues in the Ming Dynasty, although because of Gao Qiqian and Lu Xiangsheng's discord, they refused to save each other, but after all, they were a little cold-toothed, and there was a feeling of cold lips and teeth. risking his life to rescue Lu Xiangsheng and the Xuanda officers and soldiers under his command, this kind of mind still makes these Guanning generals very admired.

Anyway, the purpose of their Xingtian Army going north this time is already very clear, they really want to fight the Tartars, not to make trouble for the imperial court, to a certain extent, in the matter of dealing with Jiannu, the Xingtian Army is their friend, but I never thought that Gao Qiqian would make such a decision now, just let Jiannu not fight, but on the contrary, he will fight the Xingtian Army, he can really do this kind of thing.

After the generals hesitated for a while, no one answered, and Gao Qiqian saw that the generals did not react, so his face sank, and he scanned the generals' faces with his gloomy eyes, and asked: "Is it possible that you want to disobey?" ”

After hearing this, the generals were shocked, and they didn't dare to hesitate anymore, so they quickly got up and hugged their fists to respond to the order, Gao Qiqian waved their hands and let them go down to start preparing to send troops, looking at the back of the generals out of the tent, Gao Qiqian sneered, touched the smooth and hairy chin, and said to himself: "This is sent to the door by yourself, the Tartars are not easy to fight, but the two of us can join forces to kill such a soldier and horse of the Xingtian Army, it is estimated that it will be a great achievement!" ”

Eunuchs, no wonder they say that there are many disasters, and the psychology is deformed, these guys are often regarded as nothing by them because of the national righteousness and the like, and they are more likely to speculate on the holy will, and the reason why Gao Qiqian will take such an idea, in fact, to put it bluntly, is to understand the thoughts of the current emperor Zhu Youzhen, although the current emperor hates Jiannu, but for a righteous army like the Xingtian Army, he hates it a hundred times, this time Xiao Tianjian issued a message to the world to the world. made the court and the emperor very faceless, Zhu Youzhen can be said to have hated it so much that the roots of his teeth are itchy.

So this time, since the Xingtian Army's lone army went deep into the land of Jingfu so deeply, and they also fought fiercely with the Tartars, whether it was from the right time and place or the strength of the troops, they were all in a very disadvantageous position, and now if he took this opportunity to join forces with the Jiannu Army to destroy the soldiers and horses of the Xingtian Army here, the saint would definitely be happy, as for the Tartars, they just entered the pass to rob, and after grabbing enough, they naturally had to retreat outside the pass, and the Xingtian Army lost so many soldiers and horses, it would definitely hurt the muscles and bones, Maybe he will be more appreciated by the emperor from now on!
