This time the overnight pursuit, the commander of the troops, Chagan Balanai, is the brother of a small hatun in Urusborot, and what he is best at is a tough battle, coupled with the large number of people, and the elite of the Khan Court under his command, he has enough confidence to annihilate the Ming army that came to attack. However, when he saw the success, the Ming reinforcements suddenly arrived, not to mention the grievances in his heart. Shooting an arrow at the other side as if venting his anger, he looked around and shouted: "Ming Dog didn't fight, he broke them first!" ”

However, when he led his troops to rush forward, as if in response to his morale-boosting shout, a dull voice suddenly came from both sides. There were those who had fought in the Ming Dynasty and immediately shouted: "It's artillery, it's the artillery of the Ming army!" ”

The sound of this artillery not only made the more than 1,000 Mongolian cavalrymen look different, but even Xu Xun and Shenying couldn't help but look at each other. Xu Xun is in the vanguard of the government army, and he has specially practiced many firearms before, but the result is just that the upper and lower young armies have just learned to use and cooperate accordingly, etc., as for the artillery in this year, it is very different from the momentum of later generations, most of them are used for city defense, and it is difficult to use them in field battles. Therefore, when the sound of the explosion came from far and near, followed by the two wings of the military horse over there suddenly scattered and surrounded, and the Chinese army also advanced rapidly, and the flag fluttered in the distance, and he couldn't count how many reinforcements there were, he couldn't help but feel shocked, and the Shenying on the side was even more radiant, and couldn't help but slap the horse's head.

"This Zhuang Jian, when did he become so bold, he was so generous, could it be that the Datong defenders were dispatched?"

"Anyway, it always solves our troubles. Don't stop the army, let's retreat first! ”

When Shenying and Xu Xun led their troops back, the cavalry on both wings of the reinforcements had already fanned out, and it was not the edge of the cavalry on the two wings that greeted the nearly 1,000 cavalry, but the firearms and bows of the Chinese army. Although Chaganbala thinks very highly of himself, it can be seen that the knife players in the front row are ready to stop, and in the face of such a frontal formation, he also knows that he can't shake it easily, so he has no choice but to restrain his troops and horses and plan to break through. However, in order to pursue Xu Xun and his party, although more than 1,000 people were divided into two groups to take turns to rest, the horses were too worn out after all, coupled with the sound of artillery and the shock of most of the Ming army watching, the Ming army outflanked the front and back, and it was difficult for him to give full play to his ability, and he had a terrible idea in his heart.

Could it be that the Ming people led him all the way here, originally wanting to set up an ambush to eat them?

With this thought, Chaganbala did not dare to stay more and more, and desperately gathered his troops and horses to break through to the north. However, when he finally broke out of the encirclement, he found that there were countless banners in front of him, and the group of people he had led his troops to chase and kill was at the front. Seeing that the people around him were sleepy, he knew that Urusborot and the Flame Breaker had taken this opportunity to ask Yongshebu about the guilt, and his party could not help but feel hopeless. After gritting his teeth for a moment, he raised his waist knife again regardless of it. However, this time, he clearly knew that the soldiers and horses under his command were no longer sustainable.

Seeing that those pursuers were being divided and eaten little by little, Xu Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, his whole person was almost out of strength - after all, after the dramatic battle, the momentum that he had not let go of for a long time was completely relaxed. Therefore, when he saw Zhang Yong and an old man galloping over, he could only arch his hand weakly, and then said: "Old Zhang, you are sorry for coming in time, otherwise I, General Shen, and these hundreds of people will have to send our lives here." ”

"That's it, Liu Qing and I rushed here, and our mouths were about to wear out, so we brought these thousands of soldiers and horses!"

"Thousands? It's artillery and flags, I look like tens of thousands! Xu Xun raised his eyebrows in surprise, and immediately looked at the old man with a bearded jaw. At first glance, he almost thought that the other party was the eunuch of Datong, but when he looked at it again, he felt that it was a little different from the eunuchs in his impression, and he tentatively said for a while, "But Chief Zhuang? ”

"I knew you'd look away!" Zhang Yong smiled, seeing that Shenying had already arched his hand to the other party, he explained, "This is Yang Yiqing Yang Dutang, who supervised Ma Zheng in Shaanxi, and it happened that the imperial court had a military strategy to return to Beijing for consultation, and he happened to pass by Datong to see Zhuang Jian, so he helped me say two words, otherwise where would Zhuang Jian be so easy to send troops!" This time, if it weren't for Yang Dutang deliberately letting the forts north of Datong send artillery responses, and using the banner as the morale of the suspected soldiers to capture the Kou, where would this battle be so easy! ”

"It turned out to be Yang Dutang!" Xu Xun was full of admiration when he heard Zhang Yong's explanation of this arrangement, and hurriedly thanked him immediately, but as soon as the words came out, his eyes suddenly widened again, "You are Yang Yiqing?" ”

Yang Yiqing saw that Shenying was wounded, and Xu Xun was also covered in blood, and then looked at the appearance of those soldiers under their command, and for a while he smacked his tongue at the hardships they experienced, and he also had a little respect for this old and young partner. However, after Xu Xun thanked him, he suddenly looked up and down at him, and he couldn't help but be a little suspicious: "Lord Xu has seen the old man before?" ”

"Haven't seen it, haven't seen it!" Xu Xun laughed dryly, and immediately ha, "It's just that Yang Dutang's reputation in Shaanxi has spread to Jingshi, I have always hated to see it, this time I see a real person, and I feel that it is better to be famous than to meet, and it is better to be famous than to meet!" ”

People love to listen to good words, Yang Yiqing already has a very good impression of Xu Xun because of today's events, Xu Xun praised him for his great reputation, and he was so praised, he inevitably felt that his heart was ironed very much. After meeting Shenying again, he asked people to clean up the battlefield on the one hand, and asked Shen Xu and the others about the situation in the past seven or eight days outside the mouth, and after learning that Shacheng was victorious, the two slaughtered a part of the Qingshui River, and provoked the dispute between the Chahar Khan Court and Yong Shebu, and he couldn't help but have his eyes brighten.

"What a brilliant idea! Well, there is no time to be lost, and you have been so beaten last night, but only such a small force of soldiers and horses have come up, which is enough to prove that the son of the little prince is not guilty of it. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind! ”

What Xu Xun was afraid of was that Yang Yiqing was also old and unwilling to attack rashly, and when he heard him say this, he couldn't help but glance at Shenying, and both of them showed surprise in their eyes. And at this time, Zhang Yong on the side coughed lightly and said: "Brother Xu, General Shen, I want to teach you to know that it is not only Datong who sent troops this time, but also urged Chen Xiong to send troops from the Wanquan Right Acropolis while the army of Baoguo Gong finally drove over from Xuanfu!" Hey, if he really catches up with this, I won't say he's a shrunken turtle from now on! ”

Zhang Yong dragged Yang Yiqing into the water, and admired this old man who didn't like to talk about rules, so he didn't think to avoid even this kind of thing that should only be said to people close to him. As for Shenying and Xu Xun fighting side by side for a long time this time, he has long stopped treating this veteran as an outsider. As soon as these words came out, Yang Yiqing and Shenying all laughed, and Xu Xun gestured to him, and he smiled and stretched out a slap.

"Five thousand people, no matter how much Lao Miao Kui dares to ask for, Chen Xiong doesn't dare to bring it out, after all, Wanquan Right Acropolis is at the forefront, it is the top priority, in case the Baoguo Gong procrastination to the Tartars to take advantage of the loophole, he can't explain it. Let's meet together, and it's enough to make a fuss! ”

"In that case, then turn him upside down!" Xu Xun spit out this sentence categorically, his eyes swept to the battlefield just now, he took a deep breath and said, "Otherwise, I'm sorry for so many warrior heroes who rushed all the way over, but folded at the last moment, this account has to be recovered from the captive!" ”

Speaking of this, he solemnly bowed his hand to Shenying and Yang Yiqing: "Marching and fighting is the business of the god general, and strategic planning is Yang Dutang's strength." This time, there are two of them, civil and military concentric, and a big victory can be expected! As for me and Grandpa Zhang, we might as well pick up the missing pieces on the side! ”

"Lord Xu is right, although the two of you let it go, as long as you can win a big victory, you don't have to worry about anything after returning to the dynasty!"

Shenying has almost used all eighteen skills along the way, and Xu Xun has never hindered him at all; And Yang Yiqing sent troops from Datong all the way to this point. At this moment, seeing that Xu Xun and Zhang Yong both had such an attitude, the two of them were not only happy, but also couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. After many years as an official, he always had to deal with people when he did anything, and now it is difficult for anyone to remove all obstacles, as long as they concentrate on military affairs, where can they find such a good thing?

"Okay, since the old man is here, he never wanted to go back empty-handed!"

"Yang Dutang and this civil official have such lofty ambitions, what else can I say about this old bone? I didn't say it, since I was able to escape death today, I should make a name for myself this time! ”

After the four of them laughed at each other, they had to go to the army and horses. By noon, the clean-up of the battlefield had also come to an end. Although there were still two or three hundred of the more than 1,000 captives who finally broke through the siege, Chaganbala fell forever on the seashore of the water, and more than 300 were beheaded and more than 300 were seriously injured. However, Xu Xun and Shenying's previous killing of prisoners, Yang Yiqing is not good to use, so the distance from Datong is only a day's journey, he directly ordered to write down the military merits, then picked out 500 foot soldiers and ordered to escort people back to the pass, and sent back all the wounded on their side, so that after rectification, there were less than 4,000 left, including Xu Xun's 200 soldiers and horses.

On the eve of setting off again, looking at the extra simple dirt bags on the seashore in the water, Xu Xun couldn't help but stop at the horse, then took off his helmet, bowed his head and mourned for a moment, then raised his head and looked around at the more than 200 people behind him, and said word by word: "I know that the imperial court has a rule for the war dead to be buried on the spot. But today, all the warriors are almost at the door of the house but lose their lives, and it is all my fault! When they return their booty, they will be returned to their families, and when the army returns, I will personally bury you back to the gates! If you break your oath, it's like this! ”

Seeing that Xu Xun suddenly drew his knife and broke his hair, the more than 200 people who had been killed by him all the way from Shacheng were silent, and their faces were not without emotion. Yang Yiqing, who was on the side, looked at this scene and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

If you can say such a thing, it is no wonder that you can make the soldiers concentrate and make such a big scene with such a small number of people!
