We would like to thank Brother Chen Qixiong for their continued support. ）

On the back of a low hill only thirty miles away from the camp of the Ming army, here has become the main camp of the Jurchen Haixi Jurchen Zhengnan General Fortitude, where the military camp is continuous, the flag is fluttering, and there is a lively scene of people shouting and neighing, in the middle of the military camp in the largest tent, a man with a full face and beard and a burly figure is crouching on a refined sandalwood coffee table that can only be made by the veteran craftsmen of Suzhou Mansion in the Ming Dynasty at a glance. More than 300 fierce Jurchen Tiefutu were dressed in black heavy plate armor and guarded around the tent with maces or axes commonly used by Jurchen warriors, and more than a dozen men wearing only single clothes and holding various weapons in their hands, not dressed as soldiers, stood at the entrance of the tent.

"General, Lord Amin and Lord Erle and Ze are here." There was a chiseled footstep outside the door, followed by the sound of the guards.

"Come in!" The burly man who was looking at the map answered without raising his head. His voice was majestic, like a heavy drum.

The curtain opened, and Amin walked in, along with Erle and Ze.

"Amin (Erle and Ze) have seen the general!" The two knelt down and saluted.

"Let's all get up, no need for these false courtesies, tell Ben Shuai, how is it over there?" General Zhengnan resolutely straightened his waist, looked at the two and said.

"Yes, General!" The two got up, and Amin said: "According to the general's orders, his subordinates led people to retreat all the way, causing the Ming Court's Northern Expeditionary Army to continue to come north, and in the process of capturing the first few cities, each of the subordinate cities left part of the army to defend to the death, causing a total of more than 20,000 casualties to the Ming Court. In addition, two days ago, his subordinates were holding on to Xishenwei, and it was estimated that more than 50,000 people were killed and wounded in the Ming Court, and all of them were elite troops. Now, there are no more than 150,000 soldiers left in the Ming court, and some of them are wounded, they have crossed the Songhua River behind our buttocks, and camped thirty miles away, and their soldiers have crossed the river overnight, and have not closed their eyes for two days and one night, and are now exhausted to death, and their subordinates have also sent people to observe, their defense is almost none, only a very low wooden fence. ”

"Well done!" Gangyi showed an approving look in his eyes, laughed, and patted Amin on the shoulder: "It is worthy of being the head of our Haixi Jurchen Three Heroes, and the tasks I gave you have all been completed very well." ”

Amin smiled humbly: "Erle and Ze made great contributions when they were guarding Xishenwei, if it weren't for him leading Tiefutu to drive the Ming army off the city wall, we are afraid that we would not be able to hold it." ”

Erle and Zehaha smiled, their faces colorful.

The resolute hatred of iron and steel glared at him with a straight face: "Learn a little more from Amin, how old are you, and you don't have a city at all!" What you think in your heart, it is clear what is written on your face! Remember, you are no longer a child, you are a tiger and a leopard in the mountains and forests, and a general who commands 10,000 people! You know what? ”

"Oh!" Erle and Ze gave him a lecture, and he answered listlessly with his head down.

Fortitude raised his voice and shouted, "Go and call Zilharang." ”

"Yes, General!" The guards outside the tent answered.

"Is Zilharan back?" Amin asked in surprise.

"Hmm!" Gangyi nodded: "He has completed his task very beautifully, and he has already agreed to our conditions." ”

"That's great!" Amin showed an excited look on his face and slapped his face: "In this way, our chances of winning are a few points greater!" ”

While he was talking, the handsome but somewhat vicious Zilharang walked in, greeted Gangyi with a smile, and smiled at Amin and Erle Heze: "I heard just now that you brought people back, and it seems that the task has been completed well." ”

Amin smiled, "Aren't you too?" ”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Although they are both known as the three heroes of Haixi, it is obvious that Erle and Ze are the fierce generals who make up the numbers, and Zilharang and Amin have a very good personal relationship, and the cooperation is also intimate, but there are faint signs of difference, and no one wants to lose to anyone.

"Alright, all sit down, sit down!" Looking at the three young heroes under his command, he resolutely stroked the short beard of his chin, and his expression was very proud.

Maybe God bless me Haixi Jurchen, three such outstanding young generals suddenly emerged under his command, one is invincible, one is incomparable, and the other is calm and sophisticated.

The three of them all sat down on the Jindun next to them, took a sip of the teacup with fortitude, cleared their throats, and said: "This war is related to the rise and fall of my Haixi Jurchen, so I don't need to say more about the importance, you yourself know it in your hearts." ”

All three nodded in understanding.

Gangyi continued: "This time, the Ming court sent 220,000 troops to come, menacing, powerful, my Haixi Jurchen is trying his best to make up the whole clan, but it is only the 150,000 army that has been put together, among the 150,000 troops, 1,000 Tiefutu, before the abduction horse, there are 15,000 heavy cavalry in armor, 30,000 light cavalry, 15,000 infantry in armor, and the rest are foot soldiers, and they are all soldiers who have just been recruited, only one weapon, only wearing single clothes and leather robes, not even armor. The advantages of the two sides are very obvious, but just now Amin said that now the army of the Ming Court has been consumed to only 150,000, and now the strength of the two sides is equal. Amin, you fought with Ming Ting all the way, let's talk about it, how powerful they are. ”

"Yes, General." Amin said: "The subordinates have basically found out that the Ming Court's northern expedition is divided into three parts, one is the border army of the governor of Nuergan, with a total of less than 80,000 people, one is the Jingwei, with more than 100,000, and the other is some inland guards of the Ming Court, with 50,000 or 60,000. Among them, the most elite is the eight guards of Jingwei, but under the Xishen Acropolis, the main attack is Jingwei, they are now more than 100,000 people, and they are already exhausted, and the only ones who can have combat power are only 30,000, so it can be said that the threat is already very small. The second is the border army, which can be on a par with our Jurchen armored foot soldiers, and again it is the inland guard, according to the subordinates, even if our Jurchen foot soldiers have just been recruited, they are not worse than them! Therefore, our current combat strength is already on par with the Ming army, or even higher, and we have an advantage that they absolutely do not have - that is, there are more cavalry! ”

Resolute nodded, his heart settled down slightly, he knew that Amin had always been calm and easily did not speak, but as long as he said it, the situation would definitely be the case.

Amin chuckled, with some contempt in his eyes: "As the general said, we really didn't have much chance, we had a bad white plague before, and a lot of grain and livestock starved to death in the tribe, and now it was the time for the autumn high horse fat grazing cattle and sheep to harvest crops, but we have to come here to fight, delaying production, and as long as the war continues, we will definitely have another great famine this winter." But fortunately, the commander of the Ming court was Xu Pengju, the Duke of Wei of this generation, that is, the descendant of their founding father, King Xu Da of Zhongshan, who was so happy, violent and temperamental, moody, narrow-minded, and didn't know what the Ming emperor thought, so he let him lead the Northern Expeditionary Army. ”

"The subordinates have observed, this person is indeed mediocre talent, repeatedly made stupid moves, before attacking Xishenwei, siege warfare, with elite and ordinary soldiers There is not much difference, but he gave up the inland guard not to use only Jingwei to attack the city, and the Jingwei was disabled. When crossing the river to pursue us, for convenience, a large number of war horses were abandoned, so that many cavalry became foot soldiers. As a result, our winning margin is much greater. ”

After listening to him, Gangyi's eyes lit up, and an extremely bold idea suddenly popped up in his heart, he thought for a while, his expression was solemn, and he said slowly: "Ben Shuai has an idea, say it, you counselor." ”

The three of them were stunned for a moment, and quickly listened carefully.

"That's what Ben Shuai thinks." Resolute said something slowly.

After listening, Erle and Ze returned the favor, and Zilharang and Amin glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of shock in each other's eyes, and the shock was mixed with excitement and excitement that could not be concealed.

General, this is a battle!

"Zilharang, you are known for your resourcefulness, you speak first." Resolute said.

"Yes, General!" Zierharang pondered for a moment, and then wrinkled his brows and said: "The plan we agreed on before was to constantly attack and harass with superior cavalry, disturb the morale of the Ming army, and then lead it to the old course of the Songhua River, build a dam upstream to store water, and then dig up the embankment, and destroy all the Ming army with the power of the flood, but now that I think about it, this strategy is good enough and vicious enough, but it is a little taken for granted." ”

He paused and said: "The Ming army may not be as we think, it will definitely be sold out, although Xu Pengju is an unsuccessful person, but under his hands, there may not be no people who understand." In this case, it is better to grasp this opportunity now, at this time the Ming army is tired to this point, we do this, there is a considerable degree of certainty, and even if it can't be fatal with one blow, it can be beaten to five labor and seven injuries, and the vitality will be greatly damaged, and it will be much easier to act in the future. ”

Resolute nodded: "Then you approve?" ”

Zilharang nodded, "Yes." ”

"What about you? Amin? Resolute asked, tilting his head.

"I agree." Amin's eyes flashed with excitement: "But there is one thing, there should be some cavalry in the camp of the Ming army, about fifteen thousand, those foot soldiers are extremely flustered in the night battle, they are too busy to take care of themselves, and there is no threat, but these cavalry are a big trouble." The subordinate has an idea, but it is better to ...... so"

"Good!" After listening to Amin's suggestion, Gangyi applauded and shouted: "Then it is decided, you go down immediately to gather the soldiers, and you will do so later!" ”

"Yes, General!" The three of them stood up in unison and gave up their hands.

"By the way, Amin, Zantai, what's going on?" The three of them were about to go out, and Gangyi suddenly asked.

Amin was stunned, turned around, Zilharang and Erle Heze also stopped, Zilharang looked at Amin with some astonishment, he had just come back, and he didn't know about Zantai.

I was a little worried in my heart, although I often parted ways with Amin, but Sanjie has always advanced and retreated together.

Erle and Ze opened their mouths to speak, but were stopped by Amin, he stepped forward and said: "General, the responsibility for this matter is all on my subordinates, I mishandled it, and I am willing to be punished!" ”

"You!" Gangyi sighed, stretched out his hand and nodded at him, how could he not know that Amin did this for the sake of the overall situation.

Gangyi said: "When this battle is over, you can lead people to the south, and don't go back to the tribe." ”

Amin was stunned for a moment, and then showed a hint of gratitude, he knew that this resolute man intended to protect himself from returning to the tribe and being reprimanded by Zantai's uncle.

That person's power is resolute and unwilling to offend easily.

Amin solemnly kowtowed: "Thank you, General!" ”

"Alright, alright, let's go down and prepare! Killing a few more Ming soldiers is my greatest thanks! Resolute laughed.

—————— Dividing Line——————

At the end of the twentieth day of the seventh month of the fifty-first year of Zhengde, that is, at eleven o'clock in the evening of the hereafter.

By now, the sky has completely darkened, and it seems that even God is helping the Jurchens, tonight there are no stars and no moon, and you can't see your five fingers, it is a good time to attack the camp.

From the beginning of the day, the Jurchen camp, which had been silent, became extremely busy, and countless torches were lit, illuminating the surroundings transparently. The soldiers put on their armor, mounted their horses, sharpened their steel swords, and under the leadership of officers at all levels, they walked out of the resting tents and began to form a formation in an orderly manner.

There was no impassioned speech, no pre-war agitation, the eyes of every Jurchen warrior burned with a crazy and bloodthirsty light, the army of the Ming court had crossed the Songhua River, and hundreds of miles north from then on, the pasture where the Jurchens grazed cattle and sheep in the boulder Haixi, the tribe was there, their wives, children, and parents were also here, and if they were defeated by these Ming court armies, they could drive straight in, destroy their tribes, and kill their parents, wives and children.

If this battle is lost, there will be no return!

You can only win, not lose!

Haixi Sanjie is the commander of the action tonight, 15,000 armored cavalry led by Erle and Ze, the armored cavalry is between the abducted horse and the light cavalry, they are wearing the fish scale armor cast by the three surnamed Jurchen themselves, and the war horse is covered with cotton cloth, barbed wire, etc. The combined armor of men and horses also exceeded the weight of fifty catties, which can be regarded as heavy cavalry.

After all, the Jurchen national strength is meager, and the Haixi Jurchens have only made up more than 10,000 sets of armor after decades of poverty, many of which have even been passed down for decades.

This fifteen thousand armored cavalry is an extremely sharp arrow cluster, which plays the role of tearing apart the Ming army camp, and the tip of the arrow cluster is a thousand kidnapping horses, the most elite iron cavalry in the entire Jurchen! They were also placed under the command of Elh and Ze.

Amin led 30,000 light cavalry, they only wore simple leather armor, and the horses were not armored, these light cavalry were far less powerful than the armored cavalry, but their mobility was far superior, and the Jurchen housekeeping ability was very strong in riding and shooting. They will follow behind the armoured cavalry and expand their gains.

Zilharang led 30,000 foot soldiers, these foot soldiers are all Jurchen veterans, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

The 76,000 troops slowly left the camp under the leadership of their respective generals, and watched these troops disappear into the night, with resolute faces. After a long while, he sighed and gave orders one after another.

The remaining 70,000 troops left the tents one after another, but the tents were not demolished, they still remained, they took a lot of firewood, grass, branches and other things, put them in the tents, and then poured vegetable oil and other things on them. Then, the lights in the camp were extinguished one after another, leaving only a few, and the illuminated camp was hazy in the night.

Taking advantage of the night, Amin and the three of them sneaked to the right flank of the Ming army camp diagonally in front of it, and at this time, it was already sub-hour.

The horses' hooves were wrapped in a thick cloth, and their mouths were sealed, and only a very slight sound was made along the way. Fearing detection, they were slow and just beat their horses and walked slowly. However, they found that their worries seemed to be unnecessary, and the Ming army did not send outposts at all, and the journey was very smooth.

Looking at the dark Ming army camp in the distance from afar, Amin's eyes flashed with excitement.

Are you about to start? This battle of national fortunes between the Jurchens and the Ming Dynasty? No, it shouldn't be said that Da Ming is so powerful, such a behemoth, even if it loses this time, it is nothing to them, far from the extent of breaking their muscles and bones. But the Jurchens are different, the Jurchens rose too late, the population is too small, and the family foundation is too thin, this is actually a very fragile country, so fragile that if this battle is lost, it will be the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species!

But if it wins, the Ming court will no longer be able to organize such a large-scale expeditionary force within at least a year, and the Jurchen iron cavalry will be able to gallop freely on both sides of the Songhua River and expand the territory!

He took a deep breath of the slightly cool air of the night, waved his hand violently, and said in a deep voice: "Erle and Ze, take your people, charge!" ”

"Yes, Amin!" Erle and Ze's faces were flushed with excitement, he split his horse, and with a wave of his hand, a thousand crutches and horses followed him.

"Sons, charge with me!" At this time, there was no need to hide, Erle and Ze shouted, and a thousand crutches and horses rushed towards the camp of the Ming army under his leadership like an iron stream. And behind him were the overwhelming armored cavalry!

The deafening sound of violent horses' hooves was heard far away in an instant, and the earth seemed to tremble slightly.

With a wave of his hand, Amin also charged behind the armored cavalry with 30,000 light cavalry, and he coldly ordered: "Rocket! ”

The light cavalry who had been prepared for a long time drew their bows and arrows on their horses, and shot rockets one after another, and countless fiery red tracks crossed the sky, instantly illuminating the surroundings, and the black night sky was torn apart, and what appeared in front of everyone was the sleeping Ming army camp.

Outside the camp, there was no earthen wall, no trench, only a low, unprotected fence!
