February 15, 2024 A.D. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info a young couple from the south of the Yangtze River, after visiting the Ming Tai Temple, they continued north, and came to a small river east of Beizhen City, Liaoning Province. After the man burned some paper money by the river, he took the woman to Shenyang. Before leaving, the two saw a Taoist temple by the river, which was dedicated to Ding Shouming, the Duke of the Ming Dynasty. The inscription outside the view is engraved with the words "Qingguo Gong has been bloody in Liaodong all his life, and it began here".

At this time, it was Ding Shouming and others who led the troops to fight with Mengnu, and after leading the troops out of the city, Ziren and his party did not dare to delay, and led the soldiers and horses all the way to hurry, and soon arrived not far to the east of the Yangji River. Thinking that there would be a bloody battle next, Ziren ordered everyone to rest for a while after the formation, and he took people to investigate.

At this time, stationed on the north bank of the Yanggu River was the Mengnu Black Carboniferous Department, which was the leader of the Taining Tribe, and in its heyday it had nearly 10,000 people who controlled the strings. In Jiajing, Longqing, and Wanli, he repeatedly invaded the Ming Realm with his nephews the Mongolian Han and the Inner Khalkha Five Tribes. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was strong and strong, and it was hit hard by famous generals such as Dong Yiyuan (one of the five tiger generals at Wanli Border Pass) and Li Chengliang, the general of Liaodong. Now the power is not as good as before, if it were not for the barbarians who deliberately supported it, it would have been annexed by others, and this battle was exhausted by the strength of the troops, and only barely gathered 2,000 men.

In yesterday's battle, Black Shitan rushed to the front to avenge the slaughter of the left-behind tribesmen, and lost a lot of people and horses after the battle. After the arrival of the barbarians, he couldn't bear the uncle's heavy losses, so he arranged for him to go to the east bank of the Yangjiao River to prevent the Ming army from breaking through after the river froze. The barbarians led the fried flowers and rabbits, and besieged the Ming army camp on three sides.

Seeing that the ice on the surface of the river was impassable due to the artillery bombardment of the Ming army, Heishitan did not arrange a heavy defense, leaving only the centurion Bao Lidao with more than 100 horsemen and horses to garrison here. In order to make up for the recent losses, he led most of the soldiers and horses to plunder the Ming people around.

After some investigation, seeing that there were not many people left behind by the enemy, Ziren discussed with Hu Yukun and Wang Ren for a while, and led his men and horses to rush over. Before the two armies, Ziren took his subordinates to repeat their old skills, and Ding Shoutie and Wang Xuedao first put three eyes to kill the enemy, and Ma Gui and Ma Shinan brothers also released arrows on the horses to support. Taking advantage of the enemy's lack of time to react, Hu Yukun and Wang Ren led their troops to swarm up.

Ziren and Hu Yukun were eager to rescue, and the offensive was particularly ferocious. There were not many men left behind, and after being attacked, they gradually began to be unable to parry. Bao Lidao, who led the troops, also recognized that the people who led the troops to help were Hu Yukun and others who had made him suffer a few days ago. Knowing that he couldn't resist it, he hurriedly led the troops to retreat.

The Ma brothers knew that the enemy commander was the one who led the troops to attack their own forts, and the enemy was red when they saw each other, so how could they let it go, and hurriedly chased after them. Ziren was also on the rise of killing at this time, and he only let go of the three-eyed gun in his hand, feeling that he still had some strength left, and he couldn't care about the reason that the poor Kou Mo was chasing, so he led Wang Mingjian and others to chase after him.

After some chase, the Ma brothers saw that Bao Lidao and the others had entered the range of bows and arrows, and began to draw their bows and arrows, preparing to shoot them off their horses. In the midst of this lightning and flint, Bao Lidao and the guards around him suddenly turned their bodies halfway and returned to their horses to release arrows. Riding and archery is the skill of Mengnu, these arrows are very sharp, only to see a few sharp arrows straight towards the Ma brothers.

The elder brother Ma Gui is a shrewd person, and he quickly reminded his younger brother to pay attention to dodging. In a moment of distraction, a sharp arrow had been shot into his chest. Ma Gui was chasing the enemy with all his might at this time, and the arrow broke through the cotton armor on his body with the help of horsepower, piercing his chest, and Ma Gui was unable to support the heavy blow, and then fell from the horse.

Fortunately, his brother reminded him, and Ma Shinan hurriedly dodged the incoming bow and arrow. After getting up, he saw that his brother had fallen from his horse, and he didn't care about letting go of the arrow to kill the enemy, so he hurriedly dismounted to check.

Seeing that Ma Gui was injured and fell from his horse, Ziren was angry for a while, and he didn't care that the enemy was outside the best range of the Three-Eyed Gun, so he immediately lifted the gun head and shot at Baoli Dao and his party. Seeing this, Ding Shoutie and Wang Xuedao also fired with their young master.

It is also the fate of this treasure power that is destined to die here today, although the three-eyed gun is not good at a long distance, but there happens to be a gun that hits the war horse under its crotch. The horse was injured and suffered uncontrollably for a while, and threw it off the horse.

Bao Lidao's men and horses have been defeated in successive battles in the past few days, and at this time they are already frightened birds, and they only care about seizing the road and fleeing, and no one turns back to rescue the leader who has fallen off the horse.

Ziren was furious in his heart, slapped his horse forward and changed his posture, used the three-eyed gun in his hand as a big stick, and smashed it into the back of Baoli Dao, who had just gotten up from the ground. Bao Lidao suffered a head injury when he fell from his horse, and he didn't have time to dodge in his dizziness, so he took the blow hard.

Seeing that the opponent was unable to get up after being injured, Ziren ordered the Wang brothers to dismount and tie him up. He turned around and went to check on Ma Gui's injuries.

Ma Gui was shot through the lungs by an arrow, and blood with bubbles kept gushing out of his mouth, thinking that he had more air out and less air in. Ziren was powerless in the wilderness, so he could only watch him slowly close his eyes in Ma Shinan's arms.

The Wang brothers also pressed Baoli Dao at this time. Ma Shinan saw his brother die in battle with his own eyes, and his chest was filled with grief and indignation. Immediately pulled out his knife and stepped forward to cut off the head of Baoli Dao, and at the same time disemboweled it, and took out his heart and lungs to comfort his brother's spirit in the sky.

Ziren felt that if he hadn't been bent on fighting, he could have stopped the two of them immediately at that time, and Ma Gui would not have died here. With a sense of guilt, he silently watched everything that happened, and asked everyone not to stop it. After appeasing Ma Shinan for a few words, he asked everyone to help collect Ma Gui's corpse together, and led his men down to join Hu Yukun and others.

At this time, Wang Ren and Hu Yukun also killed the remaining Mengnu, and after meeting with Ziren, they commanded their men and horses to step on the re-frozen river and cross the river to join the army on the opposite bank.

Shen Yourong saw that the water surface that had just been chiseled by artillery fire last night froze again in a few hours in the fierce north wind, and his face showed a sad color. The generals in the camp were very happy when they saw that reinforcements were coming. But after Ziren and his entourage entered the camp, they found that there were only more than 300 people waiting for reinforcements, and their hearts suddenly cooled.

Hu Yukun saw that there were countless wounded in the army, and almost all the soldiers who could barely stand were wounded. suddenly felt that something was wrong, and secretly thought to himself in his heart: "No wonder the two boys Ding Shouming and Wang Ren have a serious face, urging themselves to go all the way, it turns out that they have long known that this battle is dangerous." The scene in the camp before was all for the sake of sending troops for himself, and he was a good show! "However, Monnu has been increasing his troops on the other side of the river, and now there is no way out, so he has to wait for the troops to hold on.

At this time, there were less than 1,500 soldiers in the Ming army camp who could fight, and there were many lightly wounded among them. Shen and Yang had no choice but to arrange for everyone to defend, hoping to use the ice wall to shorten the defensive surface and wait for reinforcements. According to the previous arrangement, Shen Yourong, Yang Shaoxun, and Yang Yuan continued to lead the infantry to guard the three sides of the ice wall, and Hu Yukun and Ziren defended the east side of the river together. Wang Ren stayed in charge of the Chinese army and led the cavalry drawn from everyone to rush to the aid of the Quartet as a reserve force.

Before the crowd was ready, Monnu launched a new offensive and surrounded the ice wall on all sides. On the Ming side, except for Ziren and others, they all thought they were exhausted. Monnu attacked in turns with a team of 1,000 people, and the momentum continued unabated after a morning of bloody fighting. Under the advantages of one and the other, the ice wall is surrounded by dangers on all sides.
