"Back to my lord. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" The staff behind him replied, "There is no news from General Chiang. ”

"There is no news on why the Tartars suddenly withdrew their troops." Zhang Fengyi muttered again in his heart.

"Order, all departments advance slowly, do not rush forward, do not pursue." Zhang Fengyi thought for a while and added, "Send someone to send a letter to Wang Pu, stick to Datong, and never go out of the city to pursue." ”

"Beiming, Xu Lang, the latest situation." Han Wantao found Jiang Beiming and Xu Lang at the command post on the top of the mountain, "Azig has withdrawn the army, and the Tartars of 70,000 horses and more than 200,000 people are assembled in Zhenning Fort, and they may leave the customs at any time." ”

"It's pretty much the same, we've been waiting for days, and if he doesn't leave, my ass will come out of the cocoon."

"Wan Tao, what's going on over there Zhang Fengyi?" Xu Lang asked.

"Nothing big. Our people came back and said that Zhang Fengyi had arrived at Datong Mansion, and together with Wang Pu's army, a total of 100,000 people, followed Azig from afar, but did nothing. ”

"Leave Zhang Fengyi alone." Jiang Beiming ordered, "Inform the subordinates, all departments are ready for battle, and the battle will start at any time." ”

Two days later, a group of Eight Banners soldiers drove to the Yanmen River, several pontoon bridges were built, and some Eight Banners soldiers who couldn't wait directly crossed the river. Behind the Eight Banners were more than 200,000 people who were pressed by the black.

"These Tartars, they're so arrogant." Lin Zhaolong handed the telescope in his hand to Zhou Lei beside him, "It's a comparison with the Japanese devils in Pingxingguan back then." ”

"Hey, Zhaolong." Zhou Lei smiled, "Do you also want to play a flat level?" ”

Lin Zhaolong didn't speak, and took the telescope from Zhou Lei's hand and looked at it quietly for a while.

"Zhou Lei, immediately send someone to inform Jiang Beiming." Lin Zhaolong's words startled Zhou Lei, "What's the notice, our battle plan has been set, you won't have any new ideas." ”

"Not a new idea." Lin Zhaolong handed the telescope to Zhou Lei again, "It's already evening, and according to the speed at which they cross the river, the Eight Banners can only pass a small part tonight." That is to say, at this rate, when the Chinese army of the Eight Banners enters the valley tomorrow, the people of the Ming Dynasty have not yet crossed the river. ”

Zhou Lei understood what Lin Zhaolong meant: "You want to save these people? ”

"Yes." Lin Zhaolong nodded, "Go and report to Jiang Beiming immediately, as soon as the Tartar crosses the river, we will send a signal and let him do it immediately." At the same time release the water, I will use the cavalry regiment to separate the Tartars from the people. ”

"But." Zhou Lei hesitated, "The battle plan has been formulated, you can temporarily change the plan now, and let Jiang Beiming listen to our signal, this is not appropriate." ”

"What's wrong with that." Lin Zhaolong glared, "I am now the deputy commander of the independent division, and I am responsible for commanding you and obeying orders." ”

"Gotta don't stare at you." Zhou Lei said, "I will personally report to Jiang Beiming, but before I come back, you are not allowed to take any action." ”

Lin Zhaolong smiled: "I know, you go, I'll wait for your news." ”

In the middle of the night, Zhou Lei came back: "Zhaolong, there is really you." Jiang Beiming agreed to our request, and everything is subject to your signal. ”

"Huh." Lin Zhaolong laughed lightly, "Pass the order, all departments hurry up and rest, and the battle will start at any time." ”

At noon the next day, the Eight Banners had almost finished crossing the river. The people of the Ming Dynasty in the back helped the old and the young, and prepared to cross the river in a mess under the shouting of the Eight Banners.

"Herald." Lin Zhaolong raised his glasses and said, "The wolf smoke is rising, and the cavalry regiment is ready to attack." ”

Three wolf smoke lit up, and the thick smoke soared into the sky.

Jiang Beiming was waiting anxiously, the vanguard of the Eight Banners had already walked out of the valley about 10,000 people, but Lin Zhaolong's signal never came.

"Beiming, Zhaolong has come to signal." Xu Lang pulled Jiang Beiming.

Jiang Beiming raised the binoculars and looked at it: "Herald, blow the trumpet!" ”

The loud sound of trumpets resounded through the valley.

"Command, everyone throw torches." Ye Zhan gave the first order as the commander of the mountain.

Thousands of torches were thrown into the valley, and a raging fire broke out.

"Roll the wood." Ye Zhan's second order was then given.

A large number of stones and tree trunks were pushed down from both sides of the valley.

"Go back, go back." Azig did not expect to encounter a sudden blow here, and the Chinese army he led had just reached the middle of the valley.

"Artillery regiment, shotshots." The order flag in Zhao Qi's hand was thrown down quickly.

Fifty-six six-pounder guns sprayed tens of thousands of shotguns, and the eight flags under the mountain fell in pieces.

"Captain, it's so enjoyable." The sergeant major of the artillery regiment next to Zhao Qi shouted excitedly.

"Nonsense, can you do it if you don't have an addiction?" Zhao Qi was also stimulated by the effect of the blow, "How hard it took us to pull these cannons up the mountain, and we are sorry for the sweat of the brothers if it has no effect." ”

The Eight Banners outside the valley stopped, no one expected that they would suddenly suffer such a heavy blow.

"Back off, back off." Gushan Ezhen, who commanded the rear army of the Eight Banners, desperately pulled the war horse, and twenty or thirty thousand eight banners swarmed in the direction of Yanmen Shui.

"Signal, release water!" With Lin Zhaolong's order, two wolf smoke rose into the air again.

A rumbling thunder came from upstream, and a torrent poured down.

"Cavalry regiment, attack!"

"Musketeers, shoot!"

One command after another was constantly conveyed from Lin Zhaolong's mouth.

"Soldiers of the cavalry regiment, charge!" Andreas received the order, and 1,500 Cossack scimitars rushed to the Eight Banners Tartar with a cold light.

The cavalry regiment rushed back and forth for two and stopped, as Azig rushed out of the valley with his men at the risk of death and returned to the Yanmen water. Azig was surrounded by about 40,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners, in addition to about a few thousand Ming Dynasty civilians.

"Master, we are surrounded." An Ejin shouted in horror beside Azig.

Azig didn't say a word, raised his hand and slashed this Ezhen off the horse.

The surrounding Eight Banners all looked at Azig silently.

"No one is allowed to mess around." Azig raised his sword in the air, "Array to meet the enemy." ”

The Eight Banners quickly formed several phalanxes, occupying a large open space by the river.

"Order the cavalry regiment to retreat, place barbed wire, and prepare the 1st regiment, the 2nd regiment, and the 3rd regiment for firing." Lin Zhaolong knew that if the cavalry regiment and the Eight Banners were to hedge, the casualties would be very large.

A row of barbed wire was erected 50 meters from the infantry trenches, the best distance at which a flintlock could penetrate cotton armor.

Azig looked in the direction of Lin Zhaolong with a pergola in his hand for a while, and accurately judged that the number of Ming troops in front was only 3,000, and the cavalry was less than 5,000.
