Chapter 509: The Final Battle (10)

The Ming army approached again, so that Kublai Khan suddenly felt nervous, this is a feeling that has never been felt before, Kublai Khan, who has experienced a hundred battles, has experienced too many things, and almost does not know what fear and nervousness are, but this time he actually felt nervous, even Kublai Khan himself felt incredible.

Despite the nervousness, Kublai Khan still had to analyze it carefully and carefully, whether it showed that the army really had any other plans, or was fully prepared.

Kublai Khan rarely became cautious, and Kublai Khan was also very clear about what this battle meant.

Just as the Ming army was gradually approaching, Habichi frequently asked for battle, begging to lead the Mongolian iron cavalry to launch an attack on the Ming army, but Hedan and Wuliang Hetai were silent.

Giving the order to attack was not a difficult matter, as long as Kublai Khan gave an order, hundreds of thousands of troops would rush to the Ming army and start a fierce battle, but Kublai Khan hesitated, because he had never seen such a commander in battle.

Kublai Khan already knew that Wu Shaogang also personally led the army to fight this time.

The two armies are camped ten miles apart, which has violated the rules of warfare, and the military camps of the two sides should be at least thirty miles apart, so even if they encounter a rout, there is almost no adjustment in the camp, and the two armies separated by ten miles, after the confrontation begins, there is almost no room for maneuver, and it can only be a hard encounter.

But if they are separated within ten miles, or even five miles, it is completely a method of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, and the soldiers on both sides can only fight desperately, and there is no choice to retreat, unless it is a comprehensive rout.

Why did Wu Shaogang do this, could it be that he had full confidence.

Such an operational deployment does not conform to common sense.

When things go wrong, there must be demons, this is Kublai Khan's opinion, such an understanding is also influenced by the Han ministers, and the original rebellion in Shandong has sounded the alarm for Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan ordered the scouts to step up reconnaissance, and at the same time ordered 150,000 Mongolian cavalry soldiers to prepare for battle.

The best charging distance for the Mongolian iron cavalry is five miles, and the war horse can maintain the maximum impact within this distance, forming a terrifying momentum, not to mention the sergeant, who is in the most excited state, in such a state, the first to attack the side can almost guarantee the victory of the battle.

Could it be that Ming Jun doesn't understand this, can it be said that Wu Shaogang doesn't know this common sense.

Two days passed, and the place where the Ming army was encamped was only seven miles away from the camp.

Kublai Khan had to decide whether to wait and see what happened, or send a large army to fight it.

In the early morning of the third day, the Ming army was still moving slowly towards the front, and in an instant, Kublai Khan made a judgment that the distance between the Ming army and the Mongolian army should be five miles, and I am afraid that the final decisive battle is coming.

Early in the morning, when the Ming army just began to move, Ha Bichi went to the Chinese military tent to ask for his life, not only Habichi, but also Hedan and Wuliang Hetai and others, all came to the Chinese military tent.

It's not yet midnight, but the sky is starting to brighten.

Kublai Khan was still hesitating and had not yet made up his final decision.

What exactly hesitating, Kublai Khan himself couldn't say.

Time passed minute by minute, looking at Habichi, who could no longer hold back, and Hedan, whose face gradually became resolute, Kublai Khan was silent, and the situation of the scouts was already very clear, the Ming army was still moving slowly towards the front, although the speed was very slow, but the overall movement was obvious.

Because the sky was not too bright, and because the two armies were too close to each other, the scouts could not detect the most detailed situation, but they were completely sure that the distance between the Ming army and the barracks was getting closer and closer.

The Mongol cavalry and the sergeants of the newly annexed army were all ready, and as soon as Kublai Khan gave the order, they would immediately launch the fiercest charge.

While Kublai Khan was still hesitating, Prince Hedan couldn't help it anymore and began to speak, suggesting that the army immediately charge.

Prince Hedan was the deputy commander of this battle, second only to Kublai Khan in status, and Habichi was only the deputy marshal ranked after Hedan.

The only one who has never opened his mouth is Wuliang Hetai.

Finally, Kublai Khan seems to have made up his mind and began to issue orders...

Wu Shaogang was already in the most advanced state, and the army had been moving since the ugly time, moving very slowly, almost the speed of a snail, but it could never stop.

The army moved slowly forward, its purpose was to attract the attention of the Mongol scouts, and to cover up the other fast-moving army---- Dingkun army.

The last day of movement, the Dingkun artillery deployment in place, is the most critical, the war is about to begin, according to Wu Shaogang's holy decree, as well as the arrangement of Lu Wende and others, the war will be launched around the time, by that time, the Dingkun artillery has been completely arranged, can launch an earth-shattering roar against the Mongolian army's military camp.

But all this has a premise, that is, the Mongolian army will not suddenly launch a large-scale attack on the Ming army during the time period from the ugly time to the Mao time, at this time the Dingkun cannon has not yet been placed, and the shells cannot occur, once the Mongolian army and the Ming army fight in everything, the Dingkun artillery will lose its effect, after all, the shells do not have long eyes, but they specialize in bombing the Mongolian sergeants who fight with the Ming army.

The passage of time is a torment for Wu Shaogang, and victory or defeat is in one fell swoop.

Because it was a night operation, Wu Shaogang finally had a trace of certainty, that is, the Mongolian army would not launch a large-scale attack in the dark of night, and the night could also cover the actions of the Dingkun army to the greatest extent.

Although all the soldiers were on high alert and ready to resist the charge of the Mongol army, if the Mongol iron cavalry really launched a charge, the distance of five miles was when they exerted their might, and the two armies fought, and the Ming army must be at a huge disadvantage.

Many times, strengths and weaknesses are simply transformed in an instant.

Since the beginning of the child, Wu Shaogang has almost never closed his eyes, and when he eats at three o'clock, Wu Shaogang has no appetite.

Scouts shuttle non-stop to report on what they have detected.

Cai Siwei, Zhang Binghui, Zhang Jue, Chang Mingquan, Zhang Shijie, Ma Long and others have already gone to command the army, and those who remain in the Chinese military tent are Zhang Wenqian, Lu Wenhuan, Yuan Shichun and others.

Wu Shaogang once walked out of the Chinese military tent and looked in the direction of the Mongolian military camp in contemplation.

No one would bother Wu Shaogang at this time, they all knew that the most important and critical moment was coming.

In front is the military camp of the Mongolian army, and four miles to the right is the position of the Dingkun army.

In fact, at this time, Wu Shaogang didn't think of the battle that was about to start, he thought of the many things he had encountered since he crossed over, and under excessive tension, Wu Shaogang felt that the past ten years were like a dream.

When he just crossed, he was just an ordinary sergeant, which can be said to be at the bottom of the Great Song Dynasty, and even the people who farmed the land were more noble than ordinary sergeants, at that time, I am afraid that no one could have thought that in less than twenty years, the Great Song Dynasty perished, and the Ming Dynasty founded by Wu Shaogang rose and competed with the Great Yuan Dynasty face to face.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Wu Shaogang's face, although it took less than twenty years, everything he did was something that he would never have dared to think of after a thousand years, from this point of view, he had succeeded and left a strong mark in history.

Is it going to change history, is it able to decide the matter after a thousand years, this is not something that Wu Shaogang thinks, let alone something he can decide, history always moves forward, the once glorious Tang Dynasty, after hundreds of years, also collapsed, what Wu Shaogang wants to do is to make the people rich, let the people's cultural knowledge level improve, so that the quality of the people has some small changes, whether it is the current Ming Dynasty, or the Yuan Dynasty, are proud of the top of the world, However, such days will not last long, and if the quality of the people cannot be fundamentally improved, I am afraid that the tragedy of history will be repeated.

This path is contrary to the idea of monarchy and imperial power, but Wu Shaogang doesn't care, he is not the emperor for the seventy-two concubines of the three palaces, six courts, as long as his personal ambitions are shown, the rest doesn't matter.

The smile and comfort on Wu Shaogang's face were naturally seen by Zhang Wenqian, Lu Wenhuan, Yuan Shichun and others.

Seeing all this, everyone admired and respected Wu Shaogang even more, the enemy is currently and the war is imminent, at such a critical moment, the emperor can still be calm and light, what a strong mind is needed.

Time is ticking, and it's about to come.

There was still not much movement in the Mongolian barracks, and the scouts were constantly reporting, including when the Mongolian army would eat, when to get up, when to prepare for the attack, and so on.

Staring at the direction of the Mongolian military camp, Wu Shaogang, who had been looking at him for nearly half an hour, finally turned around and entered the Chinese military tent.

Wu Shaogang only had joy left in his heart, and he didn't understand why Kublai Khan didn't order the Mongolian soldiers to attack, and at this time, even if Kublai Khan was ready to start attacking, it was too late.

The heralds were already waiting outside the tent of the Chinese army.

Cai Siwei and others are also waiting for orders in their respective posts.

The 300,000 soldiers of the Ming army were all ready, and they were only five miles away from the Mongolian army's barracks.

It's dawn.

It was unusually quiet, almost no sound could be heard, and the insects in the field had stopped chirping.

Zhang Wenqian, Lu Wenhuan, Yuan Shichun and others, their faces were pale at the moment, their eyes were focused on Wu Shaogang, and they were also waiting for the emperor to give the order to attack.

The sergeant of the Dingkun Army, who was four miles south of the Chinese military tent, had already made preparations.

The body of the Dingkun cannon was polished, and behind each Dingkun cannon were placed shells in wooden boxes, and the muzzle of the Dingkun cannon was all facing the direction of the Mongolian military camp.
