After Li Ling came out of Guyuan City, he gathered Xu Lai's 10,000 cavalry and headed east. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
With this strength against the Tatar soldiers, it is undoubtedly like hitting a stone with an egg, and you can only attack by surprise but not by hard fighting.
"Li Ling, why don't we just sneak attack them?". Xu Lai asked with some excitement.
With hundreds of thousands of Tatar soldiers, there will definitely be many battles, as long as you defeat the Tatars and survive the battle, you will have no merit!
With Li Ling having meat to eat, Xu Lai has a friend who can fight so well, can he still take advantage of it?
"Let's find a place to get news first, and then we will go to the sneak attack at night!"
When the Tatars first arrived in a strange place, their vigilance must have been very high, and they must have not slept well after dark, and when they came, they must have been tired, and their alertness would have decreased, and this was a good opportunity for a sneak attack.
"Li Ling, I know there is a place for us to rest!" Xu Lai had been in the Northwest Army for several months and was quite familiar with the situation here.
A few miles from Guyuan Town there is a pasture, where all the cattle cultivated by the defenders of the city are located.
The pasture is rich in forage, especially suitable for cavalry trimming.
The news of the Tatar soldiers coming to attack the city did not reach the pasture, and the soldiers were still there when Li Ling led the cavalry over.
There were thousands of ploughing cattle in the pasture, and Li Ling saw that these ploughing cattle were all alive and vibrant, so he paid attention to them in his heart.
"My lord, these are all just sent by Dachang Qianzhuang, saying that they are replacing the ploughing cattle for the Northwest Army!"
The veteran soldier looked at Li Ling tremblingly, imagining whether this adult would use these ploughing cattle as military food.
"You want to use these ploughing cattle as rations? That's a good idea, I haven't eaten beef a few times! āć Xu Lai saw Li Ling looking at the ploughing cow with a light in his eyes, he thought crookedly!
"Eat your head, I have other ideas!". Li Ling said to Xu Lai and the others: "Let your people cook earlier, and we will attack them in the middle of the night after we have recuperated our spirits!" ā
Although the pasture is hidden, the Tatars will eventually find it, and it is better to take the initiative to attack.
"Li Ling, no, a few of my friends are sick!". When Li Ling was planning how to attack the Tatar soldiers, Xu Lai suddenly broke in.
A couple of soldiers came in the tent with him!
"Master Li, we don't know what's wrong, we always go to the thatched house, please help us take a look, this taste is too uncomfortable!"
Xu Lai's friends Li Ling also knew each other, who were Xu Lai's roommates when he was a husband, and it was Wu Chang who was the leader.
Since yesterday, some people in Wu Chang's group have started to have stomach aches and diarrhea, and all of them have fallen ill in less than a day!
Xu Lai knew that Li Ling was familiar with medical skills, so he asked them to come over and have a look.
"It's dysentery!". Li Ling immediately made a decision after looking at their excrement.
"You guys leave the barracks right away, and then heal somewhere else!" Li Ling casually wrote a recipe and gave it to Wu Chang.
In the Ming Dynasty, dysentery, which was nothing in Li Ling's eyes, would kill people, not to mention that this disease was very contagious, and it may have broken out in the barracks overnight.
"I, we're not afraid of death, so let's stay!"
finally turned from the firehead army to the cavalry, and Xu Lai was willing to carry them, and the commander didn't want to give up this good opportunity to earn military merits.
"You must go, it's an order!". Li Ling said solemnly: "But I can give you a chance to make meritorious contributions!" āć
Li Ling quietly walked to the side of the captain and whispered a few words.
The commander knew that these people must leave the barracks, so he didn't argue anymore and led a few comrades to leave!
At night, when the soldiers were sleeping soundly, Li Ling was busy.
He and the soldiers who guarded the ranch found more than a thousand cows and dressed them up.
The cow was draped in a quilt with strange patterns painted in red and green.
Two sharp knives were tied to the horns and a bundle of oil-soaked reeds was tied to the tail.
After the time, Li Ling gathered all the cavalry and asked the soldiers in the pasture to drive the cattle to Guyuan Town with them.
When he was not far from the Tatar barracks, Li Ling ordered a fire to be lit on the tail of the ox.
As soon as the tail of the ox burned, more than a thousand cows were burned to the point of a seizure and rushed in the direction of the Tatar barracks. The cavalrymen, armed with broadswords and spears, followed closely with the oxen and rushed forward. The soldiers of the ranch beat the copper basin with a ferocity.
For a moment, an earth-shattering shout, mixed with the sound of drums and bronze instruments, woke the Tatar soldiers from their sleep.
During the day, the Tatar soldiers used 05 as cover, and the little prince saw more than 1,000 soldiers rushing into the city of Guyuan, he was naturally very happy, and hurriedly ordered the follow-up troops to occupy the city gate.
As soon as the Tatar soldiers appeared in the sight of the defenders of Guyuan Town, they were subjected to heavy shelling!
"Boom, boom!".
Shells kept falling around him, and his companions died one by one in front of him.
"It's Li Ling's artillery!".
The Tatar soldiers began to be afraid, and they naturally knew how powerful this firearm was, and their khanate had suffered a great loss in the face of firearms.
The soldiers were frightened, and in order to save their lives, they began to retreat.
"Bastard/Ass".
The little prince was furious, and he watched as the Tatar soldiers who had entered the city were killed.
The gates are closed!
When the Tatars returned, the artillery fire also ceased.
The little prince breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that there are not many artillery and shells here, as long as they are not as violent as when they were in Lanzhou!
"Stop attacking!"
The little prince had no choice but to give the order and let the soldiers retreat to rest. Wait until tomorrow to fight again, even if it is a little bit of attrition, you will have to run out of shells.
At night, he did not fall asleep directly, but was always on guard against the attack of the Ming army.
If there is also artillery outside the city, it will be a big problem.
The time had passed, and he, like all the generals, could not stand it.
When everyone's eyes were sleepy, they saw the firelight showing off, and hundreds of monsters with knives on their heads had already rushed over.
Many soldiers were so frightened that their legs went limp, and where could they resist?
Not to mention how many people were killed by the knives tied to the horns of more than 1,000 oxen, and how many people were killed by 10,000 cavalry, even the Tatar army itself ran wildly, and countless people were trampled to death.
It was a cloudy day at this time, and there was only a pitiful light on the ox's tail, and the little prince knew how many people the enemy had come.
"Could it be that the Ming army has already taken precautions? The people and horses of Yulin, Gansu and Lanzhou are all concentrated here? āć
If the three soldiers and horses converge in one place, it will cost more than 100,000 to say the least, and the mysterious Li Jiajun is really a headache!
"Withdraw your troops!".
The little prince gave the order decisively.
Xu Lai was excited, more than 300,000 enemies actually scared away more than 10,000 of them, which could make his descendants blow for a hundred years.
"Kill me, don't let them go!".
Xu Lai led people to chase and kill the Tatar soldiers behind, until he was dissuaded by Li Ling at dawn, so he reluctantly retreated.
"Report to Khan, yesterday our army suffered more than 20,000 casualties, there are ...... Two small tribes of 10,000 men each fled! āć
After daybreak, the scouts tremblingly told the little prince about the damage of the Tatar soldiers.
After last night's tossing, the Tatar soldiers lost more than 50,000 men.
"What about the enemy? What was the situation with the Ming army? Who the hell is their commander-in-chief! āć
"The Ming army only left a few hundred corpses, and their commander may be, perhaps Li Ling......."
The scout cautiously told the result, and the Ming army wiped out 50,000 of their own at the cost of only a thousand ploughing cattle and a few hundred soldiers!
"It's Li Ling again, pass the order down and return to Guyuan Town!" The little prince didn't hurt his muscles and bones, and he naturally wanted to capture Guyuan City.
The two armies entered the stage of stalemate again, the Tatar soldiers did not dare to attack Guyuan City easily, and the Ming army did not dare to go out of the city to fight!
The little prince was faintly worried, he was afraid that Li Ling would make a ghost out of it again, he was worried for two or three days, the military camp was calm, and nothing happened!
His heart was settled!
"Khan, something is wrong, all the soldiers are down!". When the scout reported the news to the little prince, he also vaguely felt as if something was rolling in his stomach!
All the Tatars fell ill!
