Chapter 252: Happy Encounter with the Herdsman's Tent
Hauge stared at the river in front of him, his cavalry was still falling from his horse, because they were not in the range of the bow and arrow, the soldiers did not fire their bows and arrows, they were all clinging to their horses.
"These Ming troops who should feed the wolves!" Hauge turned around, except for his twenty Niulu, there was no one around, he sighed, "Let these twenty Niulu go down to the river to participate in the attack!" ”
"Generalissimo, what should we do if there is a Ming army coming from behind?"
"Now I can't see the Ming army at all, I also sent someone to search for a section just now, and I didn't see the shadow of the Ming army at all, as long as we fight forward, we should have crossed the river before the Ming army arrived."
"Generalissimo ......"
Hauge made the final decision: "Don't fight, time is precious, let the trumpeter blow the trumpet!" ”
The last twenty oxen with yellow flags also joined the ranks of the river crossers, and in the first half of the river, they traveled very fast, and after several ups and downs, they caught up with the Jurchen cavalry in front.
Zhu Youzhen, who was hidden on the high ground on the north bank, had been observing the movement of the river, and after suffering huge casualties, the Jurchen cavalry not only did not retreat, but also sent reinforcements. ”
"Your Majesty, they should all have entered the river, and there are only a handful of officers on the embankment."
"Okay, set off fireworks, I'm afraid Man Gui will have to scold his mother a long time ago!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Seeing the blue fireworks blooming in the air, Hauge felt a faint sense of pain in his heart, and he couldn't tell why, but he felt that something was wrong.
Since he commanded the southern expedition, his heart has never been happy, the Ming army has never fought him head-on, and he has never encountered the scene of galloping horses and fighting arbitrarily before.
The Ming army always appeared in front of him with an unfamiliar posture, unfamiliar clothes, unfamiliar firearms, and unfamiliar tactics.
Now that there are such bright fireworks in the sky, Hauge thinks that this must be the ghost of the Ming army, and I don't know what new tricks the Ming army is going to play this time.
Man Gui, who was hidden in the West Canyon, also saw the gorgeous fireworks at the same time, and he had already waited until the flowers were also thanked - the unknown wildflowers that bloomed in the valley did not know how many were crushed by him, if this fireworks did not appear again, Man Gui himself did not know, whether he would hold back his kidney deficiency.
Man Gui shouted: "Brothers, quickly, get out of the valley and cut off the back road of the Jurchens." ”
"Da Da Da ......"
The cavalry in front began to accelerate, and the sound of horses' hooves echoed in this claustrophobic valley.
The West Canyon is not far from the crossing point of Hauge, so there is no need to worry about the sound of horses' hooves disturbing the Jurchens - if the Jurchens want to escape after hearing the sound of horses' hooves, they will definitely not be able to escape.
Man Gui took the lead, and his saber had not been fed with blood for a long time.
Haoge was still standing on the embankment, beside him, there were only hundreds of personal soldiers, and tens of thousands of troops in Mangui suddenly fell from the sky, and he was stunned for a while, "So many Ming troops ......"
"Generalissimo, what now?"
The call of the pro-soldiers made Hao Ge suddenly sober up, he was a generalissimo of the southern expedition, and he couldn't lose his identity, but tens of thousands of Ming troops rolled over......
"Let's go, let's start crossing the river, hurry up and go ashore from the other side."
In front of tens of thousands of troops, Hauge's hundreds of personal soldiers can only be regarded as an appetizer for others, and at this time, only a large number of cavalry in the river can protect him.
Hauge led the last group of cavalry of several hundred men and leaped into the Hunhe River, trying to get close to their main force.
But the resistance of the water is too great, and the speed of the war horse in the water is really difficult to compare with the infantry on land.
Hauge was still not satisfied, Man Gui had already chased after him, and he was about to climb the embankment.
"Shoot the arrows." Man Gui went up the river embankment, and there were only two cold words in his mouth.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......"
Hundreds of arrows, like a huge porcupine skin, completely enveloped the backs of hundreds of Jurchen cavalrymen.
"Puff, puff......"
The cavalry fell one after another, and quickly sank to the bottom of the river.
"Keep firing the arrows and shoot them all." Man Gui said as he released the arrow, his saber did not lick the blood, but the arrow had already penetrated the backs of several Jurchen cavalrymen.
The main force of the yellow flag that was crossing the river, only twenty Niu Lu remained, and not only could they not save Hauge, but they themselves were also in a desperate situation.
Enter, in front of the Ming army's flintlock pistols, this is simply the meat grinder of the Jurchen cavalry, they have not been able to advance a single step until now; Retreating, behind them were tens of thousands of cavalry and thousands of arrows, entertaining their backs.
If the Jurchen cavalry does not advance or retreat for the time being, it is not a good choice to stay in the river to enjoy the coolness, the flowering bomb does not stop for a moment, it explodes around them, and no one knows where the next flowering bullet will fall.
What's more, just now, they saw with their own eyes that the hundreds of personal soldiers brought by Hauge had all been shot by the Ming army, and without the commander, they were like ownerless war horses, and they had lost their fighting direction.
What to do? What to do?
Every Jurchen soldier is waiting for the will of the Immortal Heaven!
But Changshengtian was so busy that he couldn't even care about the winners, let alone these desperate people.
When in a desperate situation, Immortal Heaven has never given only one kind of maze: that is, destruction!
The Jurchen cavalry had stopped advancing, and they stood in the middle of the river, and although the flowering shells kept falling, they were already immune to the flowering bullets.
The flintlock pistols and bows and arrows did not stop shooting, if the Jurchen soldiers chose to fight back, at least their bows and arrows could shoot to the Ming army on the south bank, but they didn't even have the desire to turn back and shoot arrows#.
"Boom...... Prosperous. ”
A flowering bomb exploded on the surface of the river, a stream of blood, washed ten paces away by the huge wave, and smashed right into the chest of a soldier.
The soldier was terrified, he threw away the scimitar in his hand, looked up to the sky and shouted: "The will of the immortal heaven, I have received it, I surrender, I surrender......"
The soldier's call immediately resonated.
When there is no way to enter the heavens and no door, any idea will resonate, and I am not afraid that I can't do it, but I am afraid that I can't think of it.
The Jurchen soldiers put their scimitars into their sheaths, their bows and arrows into the pots, and they raised their hands to the sky and began to approach the north and south shores.
Man Gui was extremely contemptuous of them: "Lao Tzu just came to the battlefield, you surrendered, and Lao Tzu didn't want to see each other, what's the matter-hey, are they surrendering soldiers?" ”
"Probably not, right? Look, they are also equipped with scimitars and bows and arrows, who knows if they will cut a knife and put an arrow? ”
"That's right," Man Gui was overjoyed, and he finally found a reason, "They haven't surrendered yet, continue to release arrows!" ”
The Jurchen soldiers, who were about to go to the south bank to surrender, suddenly retreated in fright, and they turned their horses' heads and rushed to the north bank in a swarm.
There were a large number of troops on the north bank, but there was not a single army on the south bank, and it seemed empty.
Man Gui also wanted to ride into the river and chase the Jurchen soldiers to release arrows, but was stopped by his own soldiers: "The military seat, His Majesty is on the north bank, chasing and killing the Jurchen soldiers, and His Majesty knows about it, isn't it right?" ”
Man Gui returned in a huff, he kept staring at the river, hoping that some unsightly Jurchen soldiers would come to the south bank, but they disappointed Man Gui too much.
All the Jurchen soldiers went up to the north bank, and except for a small number of floating stumps and broken arms on the river, there were a large number of ownerless war horses.
"Niang Xipi, these Jiannu who don't even eat wolves!" Man Gui scolded while turning his horse's head and turning his back on the river embankment, "Brothers, the battle is over, and the troops are all worried about him Hong Laojiu, let's camp here to rest!" ”
The soldiers were about to set up camp when suddenly, a sharp-eyed soldier shouted: "Throne, there is cooking smoke ahead!" ”
"Smoke?" Man Gui followed the direction of the soldier's finger, searched carefully, and sure enough, he saw a wisp of cooking smoke, and now there was no wind in the sky, and the thin cooking smoke rose into the air, and it had become extremely faint, if it wasn't for his particularly good eyesight, he couldn't see this cooking smoke at all.
"Military seat, where there is smoke, there will be people."
"There's no castle here, where is the smoke?" Man Gui frowned, he was thinking quickly, "Could it be the Jurchen herdsmen?" ”
"The military seat, the distance from this is only a few miles, why don't you go over and take a look, what if it is a Jurchen cavalry?"
Man Gui thought about it, yes, if there were Jurchen cavalry next to his couch, it would be dangerous, according to the deployment of the Ming army, there must be no Ming army nearby, "Let's go, go and see, which way is the fairy." ”
"Dada......"
Tens of thousands of cavalry set off a hurricane on the ground, and they trampled the hurricane behind them, and galloped towards the cooking smoke.
The distance of ten miles, in the eyes of the cavalry, is less than the time of a bag of cigarettes.
To Man Gui's surprise, a large number of gray-white tents appeared in front of him, which was simply boundless. He reined in his horse and stared closely at the tent in front of him, "Everyone be careful, it may be Jiannu's cavalry." ”
The army was guarding around Man Gui, but the tent on the opposite side did not move at all.
"What's the matter, is it an empty city plan? Or was this Hauge's big tent in the first place? Man Gui hesitated.
"No, Junzao, you see, there are cattle and sheep here, and they are definitely not empty accounts."
"Cattle and sheep? Okay, dinner is here for today. "Man Gui is an authentic Mongolian, a typical carnivore, and when he sees a large number of cattle and sheep, the corners of his mouth are almost drooling.
"The military seat, I just don't know if there are cavalry in their big tent."
Man Gui smiled: "We have tens of thousands of troops, and we still need to be afraid of these herdsmen? It's really lifeless and unproductive. ”
"Throne, what now?"
"Of course it's a siege, will people beg us to eat his cattle and sheep?" Man Gui waved his big hand: "Ges'er, outflank from the left front, Zaldo, outflank from the right front, I will personally squeeze it from the front, if you let one go, I will cut off your jj and feed it to the dog." ”
"Yes, Throne, we promise to capture all the men and horses in the tent in front of Throne."
The 21st Cavalry Division, commanded by Man Gui himself, did not move for the time being, while the 19th Division of Guser and the 20th Division of Zaldo spread towards the Great Tent at great speed like two floods that burst their banks.
