On the third night of the army's departure, the army had to stay overnight to rest because of the forced march, and boiled and ate the grain obtained along the way and the horse meat cut from the Mongolian horses killed in the battle of Pingyucheng, so that the five thousand five hundred soldiers could eat enough and beautiful, and then sleep comfortably, Ma Gui and Xiao Ruxun both felt that they would continue to move forward, and they would definitely encounter the city where the main force of the rebels was stationed tomorrow, because it was only a hundred miles away from the rebels' base camp Ningxia Town.

The night was silent and clear, and most of the soldiers fell asleep, accumulating physical strength, but Xiao Ruxun couldn't sleep for some reason, standing neatly dressed at the head of the city, looking at the bright moon in the sky.

"What's the matter, why don't you go back to sleep so late?"

Xiao Ruhui's voice sounded behind her, Xiao Ruxun turned her head back to look at her second brother, and smiled slightly.

"I'm just wondering what we should do after this battle, after the rebellion has subsided."

"Where do we go from here?" Xiao Ruhui smiled, and seemed to feel that Xiao Ruxun thought too much: "Of course, I still stay in the northwest, of course, the fourth brother has made great contributions, at least he will be promoted to deputy chief soldier, for brother, it depends on the situation, if this battle can also make some contributions, maybe it can also be promoted and take charge of an army alone, but I wait for a martial artist, no matter how I am promoted, I can't get back to my original status and be knighted at most, but if I can really be knighted, it is enough to glorify the lintel, fourth brother, Shilang, I am looking forward to it for my brother." ”

Literati are promoted, warriors are knighted, this is the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is still nominally very heavy on military merits, and it is almost impossible for Wenchen to be knighted, such as Wang Yangming's reason for being knighted, is because of the military merits of pacifying the rebellion of King Ning and the southwest rebels rather than political achievements, and the knighthood in the middle and late Ming Dynasty was very cautious, and the military exploits such as Qi Jiguang were not knighted.

Of course, this is also related to some of Qi Jiguang's own situation, the military merits of the Ming generation are the first to focus on the northern border, the first in the northwest, the second in Liaodong, and the southwest and southeast to be ranked behind, and the military merits have this level, followed by the number of beheadings, and then there are merits such as whether to open up the territory and destroy the country, and Qi Jiguang can be described as a good fighter, the border is impenetrable, and the Mongolians dare not fight.

And Xiao Ruxun's battle was almost on the verge of being knighted, first of all, the Battle of the Northwest, although it was not a field battle, but it was also in the second level of the battle to defend the city, beheading 6,000 levels, and destroying 3,000 sets of captive cavalry, beheading the Rabbit, almost killing the strong men of the Rabbit tribe, which greatly shocked the Mongolian steppe tribes.

Of course, Xiao Ruxun also knows very well that it is indeed easy for a military general to be promoted, and it is easy to lose an official, but it is very difficult to be knighted, a military general with a knighthood is different from a military general without a title.

"Brother, you say, what will happen if I go up to Shu and ask for a resumption of the Hetao?"

Xiao Ruxun suddenly said amazing words, which directly frightened Xiao Ruhui into a daze, and she couldn't speak for a while, Xiao Ruxun looked at Xiao Ruhui with a shocked look on her face, and laughed.

"Hahaha! Don't disturb brother, it's just a joke, hahaha! Look at how scared you are! Hahahaha! ”

Xiao Ruhui reacted after a while, looking like she was living after the catastrophe, and slapped Xiao Ruxun on the back: "Don't talk nonsense!" That's not something we can say! Remember! ”

"Good, good!" Xiao Ruxun promised again and again: "Remember, remember, remember!" ”

Xiao Ruhui stroked her chest and took a sigh of relief, and went back to sleep with a mutter.

Looking at Xiao Ruhui's departing back, the smile on Xiao Ruxun's face disappeared suddenly.

If you want to solve the Mongolian problem once and for all, you must and can only recover the Hetao, and then take the road of Wei Qinghuo from the Hetao to get sick, and the Mongols will fight Mobei, and completely solve it, or simply drive it to Europe to harm the Europeans, and lose both with the Europeans, so that is the only way to solve the deadlock of the nine sides!

It's just that......

Xiao Ruxun lowered his head, naturally knew that the Ming Dynasty now no longer has the confidence and courage it had at the beginning, Zeng Milling proposed to recover the Hetao, and even put forward a perfect strategic concept, but the result was still cut, he was a military general, and he was a military general, if he said it, it was almost certain that he would be handed off in the end, and it was unknown if he lost his life.

Early in the morning of March 22, the twentieth year of Wanli, Ma Guidian Qi Ming Army of 5,000, with 1,500 people under the command of Xiao Ruhui and Zhao Hu, the commander of the capital division, served as the vanguard, and marched first, commanding 3,000 Chinese troops, and ordering the general Xiao Ruxun to command the firearms battalion of 1,000 as the backing of the whole army, and set off after the Chinese army.

At noon, Xiao Ruhui's department sent a sentry back to report that there was a rebel camp ten miles ahead, and the number of people was only five hundred, about the garrison, and Zhang Liangbao was in front, because it was very close to the town of Ningxia, Ma Gui thought that there was no need to hide, and the town of Ningxia was very tall and strong, and there were many defenders, not a sneak attack and five thousand troops could attack down, and the means such as night attacks were not reliable, so they chose to cover up and kill the whole army in a bright and bright way, exposing themselves to deter the rebels, Create a good opportunity for the main force of Wei Xuezeng's department to enter.

Ma Gui immediately ordered Xiao Ruhui and Zhao Hu to lead the army to cover the kill, break through the military camp, and then launch an attack on the rebel Tucheng stronghold in the west of Ningxia Zhencheng.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Ruhui's department, which was ready to charge, officially began to attack, Xiao Ruxun ordered thirty renovated Franc locomotive guns to be lined up in a line, and let the deputy general Wang Hui command, Wang Hui raised his sword and shouted: "Load ammunition!" ”

The gunner immediately skillfully loaded his ammunition and lit the torch.

"Ignition!! Put!! ”

Boom Boom Boom Boom ......

For the rebel garrison who is enjoying the afternoon sunshine, this sudden artillery fire is a typical flying disaster, one by one just full of food, enough to play the snatched women, but also a lot of looted jewelry, belonging to the hardcore rebel Liu Dongyang's department, just now still cool, the result of the flying disaster, a row of shells fell, lead flying, hitting them flesh and blood, broken hands and feet and internal organs everywhere directly stunned them.

Many rebels were bombed and lay on the ground and shouted for help, unable to even hold their weapons, and even ran away when they heard the noise, not thinking of resisting at all, and the whole camp was in chaos.

"Kill!!"

Ma Gui found that the rebel camp was completely devoid of the posture of the whole army, so he knew that this was a silver-like wax spear head, and he was overjoyed to draw his sword and give an order.

Xiao Ruxun immediately ordered to stop the shelling, the moment the shelling stopped, Xiao Ruhui and Zhao Hu rode a war horse with a thousand fifteen hundred meritorious soldiers roaring and killed the past, in this case, the anyway army broke out with amazing combat effectiveness, like a tiger into the rebel camp, the rebels had few soldiers, they didn't dare to resist at all, anyway, the army chased a rebel to cut, cut down not to mention the knife, until the blood was dripping before they were willing to stop, and then went to find other rebels to cut and kill.

Such a ferocious, the rebels who killed directly lost their armor and collapsed, and the battle was resolved in only two quarters of an hour, completely annihilating 500 rebels, beheading more than 430 ranks, and only a few dozen people knelt on the ground and begged to surrender - they almost collapsed, and they no longer even had the strength to escape, and the loss of the Ming army was just a few people who were too excited to sprain their feet on the way to pursue the rebels.
