Text 222.The Battle of Yunnan (19)

The captives were all excited when they heard this, not only did this lord not treat himself as a prisoner, but let us lead the way to fight and ask us for merit and promotion, such a good thing, how could there be a reason not to be willing to sell his life? The prisoners in the front row were already eager to try, and they kept squeezing towards Zhang Yu's side.

Zhang Yu saw that the emotions of the captives were aroused, and then asked loudly: "Who is familiar with the terrain of the south bank, especially the lower reaches of the south bank, I need five guides." ”

How can there only be five? And just a guide? The captives, who had already been emotionally aroused, were even more enthusiastic when they heard that the task was so simple. Seeing that hundreds of people raised their hands, Zhang Yu was also a little surprised when he saw that his morale was so high and so positive, so he carefully selected ten people to join his team, and then returned to the south bank to lead the troops to set off.

The reason why he wanted to find a local soldier as a guide was because Zhang Yu had formulated a special set of tactics for himself, and after setting off, Zhang Yu's 1,000 infantry did not advance against the enemy on the flank, but went around in a larger circle to the east, and made a detour to the east side of the Deqin horse, his purpose was to make some trouble behind the ass of the Deqin horse.

A thousand lightly armed infantrymen, led by their guides, marched dozens of miles through the mountain paths. At a mountainside, Zhang Yu ordered a stop to rest, and at the same time sent eight guides with eight groups of scouts to explore in various directions.

After waiting for a while, one of the scouts reported that on the main road more than twenty miles to the southwest, they found a large group of people of the Yuan army.

After carefully studying the surrounding terrain with the guide around him, Zhang Yu immediately decided to set up an ambush in the mountain pass five miles ahead.

Speaking of the Yuan army, Deqin Ma has not been reused under the command of King Liang before, this time he did not expect that the suggestion made by King Liang could be adopted, and let him lead 10,000 horses to attack the Ming army from the flank.

Just now, Deqin Ma received a report from the scouts that the Ming army had discovered the main force of King Liang's front, and more than 20,000 horses on the south bank were facing the direction of King Liang's main force. Deqin Ma was even more convinced that as long as he suddenly attacked while the two sides were fighting, he would definitely be able to defeat the Ming army.

Just when Deqin Ma was proud in his heart, a narrow valley appeared in front of him, Deqin Ma cautiously ordered the whole army to stop, he personally came to the mouth of the valley, and glanced at the valley, strictly speaking, this is not a valley, it can only be regarded as a depression between the two mountains, although the mouth is narrower, but not deep, and the mountains on both sides are not steep.

Seeing the situation clearly, Deqin Ma waved his hand reassuringly: "The whole army passed quickly." ”

The Yuan army began to pass through, but as soon as the front team entered the valley, they heard someone shouting: "There is an ambush", and before Deqin Ma could react, there were soldiers around him who were shot by stray arrows on the mountain and were killed on the spot.

Deqin Ma's horse was also shocked, without waiting for him to swing the whip, he raised his four hooves and rushed towards the valley mouth in front, Deqin Ma was even more confused, he didn't know how to deal with it, what if there was an ambush in front of the valley mouth? I still have 10,000 troops behind.

Deqin's horse wanted to tighten the reins, but he was afraid that there would be ambushes on both sides, so his hands were not fully forced, and he let the horse run forward, he lay on the horse's back and looked at the mountain, and he couldn't see the shadow of the Ming army at all, only saw the arrow flying out of the mountainside in a trance.

The stray arrows soon stopped, and there were no expected ambushes.

By this time, Deqin's horse had run out of the valley, and some generals behind him also rushed out on horseback, and then more and more soldiers fled out of the valley. Although he didn't know what medicine was in the gourd of the Ming army, Deqin Ma didn't dare to stay, let alone outflank the rear of the main force of the Ming army, so he decisively decided to change the route of the march and move closer to the main force of King Liang.

However, before his order could be released, he heard another commotion in the direction of Taniguchi behind him, and a general ran over behind him and said breathlessly: "General, there are ambush soldiers, and they have been killed." The brothers in the back haven't withdrawn yet. ”

Deqin Ma scolded secretly, nonsense, I'm not blind or deaf, can I not know that there is an ambush? He subconsciously rushed forward again, frowned and asked, "Do you see it clearly?" How many ambushes are there? ”

The man gestured in horror: "At least a few thousand people, all over the mountains." ”

When Deqin Ma heard it, damn it, he still sneaked up on a fart. The Ming army is waiting for a rabbit for himself, and he is the rabbit. He stopped talking nonsense, pointed to the west and ordered loudly: "There is an ambush in the valley, and the whole army is speeding up and moving closer to the side of King Liang." ”

He didn't care about his men, but he beat his horse and ran to the west.

didn't run far, but he heard the earth-shattering shouting and killing sound coming from the valley behind, and Deqin Ma was so frightened that he didn't dare to turn back, so he just blindly whipped forward and ran wildly.

Speaking of the frontal battlefield, Fu Youde and Lan Yu led 20,000 horses to meet the main force of King Liang, leaving only Mu Ying to command and assemble the soldiers who crossed the river by the river. There was no danger on the south bank, the speed of the Ming army crossing the river was getting faster and faster, and soon, more than 10,000 people and horses were assembled.

After marching forward for less than twenty miles, suddenly the front team came to report that a Yuan army had escaped from the east, and there seemed to be pursuers behind them.

Mu Ying was stunned, the Yuan army is the Yuan army, how did he escape? Could it be that this is the 10,000 Yuan troops who attacked the flank of our army as mentioned earlier? Mu Ying didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered a formation to meet the direction of the Yuan army.

Before the two armies met each other, Mu Ying understood why the scout said that the Yuan army had fled, and when he saw the Yuan army, the scene in front of him could be described as miserable.

The army does not form an army, the team does not form a team, a large number of Yuan soldiers run in a chaotic manner, there is no rule at all, some carry weapons, some simply do not have weapons in their hands, and what is more exaggerated is that the armor on many Yuan soldiers is just messily hanging, and the poor appearance of losing their armor and the refugees who fled from the famine are not too much.

This is a chaotic army that can't be defeated, Mu Ying smiled, even though he has always been cautious and never careless, he is completely relieved to see such a Yuan army at this moment, because the tragic situation of this rout is absolutely impossible to pretend.

Mu Ying sighed secretly in her heart, there were only 1,000 people on Zhang Yu's side, and these Yuan soldiers were beaten like this, which shows how low the morale and fighting spirit of this Yuan soldier are, Mu Ying is secretly proud, this is obviously the credit sent to his mouth!

No, if these captives are caught at this time, then the credit should be given to those two boys, if...... Mu Ying thought about it, yes, there is, Mu Ying had a plan.

"Push it over, drive this rout to the south!" Mu Ying ordered loudly.

At this time, the Yuan soldiers had already seen Mu Ying's army, and Deqin Ma turned again in fright, and hurriedly fled to the south, and the Yuan soldiers under him were also afraid of being taken prisoner, so they also ran away like a smoke. Mu Ying was not in a hurry to catch up, but just let the soldiers bluff behind her back.

Thirty miles away, the battlefield had already begun. The 20,000 horses led by Fu Youde and Lan Yu have already confronted the main force of King Liang, and according to Fu Youde's plan, they are about to attack.

Both armies are waving flags, the armor is distinct, the swords and guns are numerous, the strong bows are complete, the large arrays on both sides are so thick and majestic, a gust of wind blows, and the military flags are hunting, this is the biggest and only sound on the battlefield at this moment, the battlefield is surprisingly quiet, and the vast land is full of solemnity.

Time almost stood still at this moment, the large arrays on both sides were silent and solemn, and the soldiers looked nervously at the enemy camp opposite, and the atmosphere was suffocating.

In the middle of the Yuan army's array, Liang Wang Valmi was looking at the Ming army's large array with high spirits, there were only 20,000 Ming troops on the opposite side, and his side only needed to attack with all his might...... Although Natuohuan Timur still occupies the throne, he has been beaten back to the desert by the Ming army for so many years, and he has only fled in embarrassment, and he has no ability to fight back.

I am the only one in the south of the Central Plains of the Golden Family, as long as I repel the Ming army this time, and then I am one step closer, and the people of the world will have to admit that I am the emperor's lineage.

Thinking of the pride, Valmy almost laughed out loud, the generals on both sides didn't know why King Liang was laughing, they all looked at him strangely, Valmy then reined in his mind, slowly raised his right hand, when his hand fell, it was the time for the army to attack.

Just before Valmy's hand was lowered, the general beside him suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted: "King Liang, look," without anyone else's fingering, Valmi also saw that a group of people suddenly appeared in the northeast of the battlefield, and these people ran closer and closer, rushing towards the direction of their large array.

Valmi saw clearly, this was not an ordinary person, it was clearly a general of the Yuan army, a Yuan soldier. Where did these people come from? Why is it like a lost dog? Are they running for their lives?

Before the two armies could fight, a rout suddenly appeared and rushed straight to the flank of the Yuan army, which suddenly overwhelmed Valmy. "Send someone over and ask whose men this is? Order them not to run forward, not to disrupt the positions of our army, they will destroy my morale. ”

At the same time, Fu Youde on the opposite side also found the fleeing Yuan soldiers, and just when Fu Youde was also wondering, Mu Ying's herald also arrived: "General Yu, General Mu Ying led the army to cover and kill the Yuan soldiers in the back, he said that the rout of the Tartars was driven to this side, and it will definitely be able to shake the morale of the army in the frontal battle, and you will have a way on your side." ”

When Fu Youde heard this, he secretly said that Mu Ying thought about it thoroughly, this is indeed a rare opportunity, and Fu Youde decisively ordered "the whole army to attack".

King Valmi of Liang suddenly thought, isn't this rout army just the 10,000 soldiers of Deqin Horse who went to attack the flank of the Ming army? If they don't sneak attack, how can they be here? The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and there is not much time left for King Liang. The rout rushed up with the Ming army on the opposite side, what should I do? King Liang was stunned.
