Zhang Yinbi's mood can only be expressed with ridicule, why did Boyan's army flee back to the pass at this time? Did the plan to assassinate the Ming Emperor succeed?

Anyway, in front of everyone's eyes, if you want to continue to hide in the army, you can only try your best to intercept Boyan's army, if the emperor is not dead, Boyan is just like Yang Hu, he is a lackey who has lost his use value, and his people and horses sent to the door is his own great achievement, which can be better hidden in the imperial court.

If the emperor is dead, take the opportunity to weaken Boyan, support the king of Baoning to ascend the throne, and grasp the military power by virtue of military merit and support, you can calmly take his country, do you really think that I will cede Gansu, Qinghai and Liaodong to you this fool?

Zhang Yin smiled coldly, and without waiting for the left and right generals to ask for orders, he quickly shouted: "Deng commands the half-moon full array to block the enemy, Commander Guan leads the army to seize the high ground next to the canyon, and the soldiers of the headquarters line up in the phalanx!" ”

At this time, the Tartars have also found that there is a large group of Ming troops blocking the enemy at the pass, this is the only way for them to escape from the outside of the plug, rushing over is the birth of the sky, and there is a danger of being wiped out by the whole army if they stay, and the Tartars who fled for their lives and deaths re-inspired the fierce surname, and the cavalry began to gather rapidly while rushing, forming a "wild boar head" formation of the decisive charge.

This formation is similar to the cone-shaped attack formation of the Central Plains, but the formation is much denser, and a stone thrown almost casually can hit a soldier or horse. The fast horse galloping at the same time wants to break through the level in one fell swoop with a strong momentum.

Seeing such a terrifying might, Deng Xueying couldn't help but be secretly shocked, but at this time, he couldn't care so much, and the pikemen immediately rushed to the valley under his command, and hurriedly laid down a convex semicircular blocking array with nine columns in depth.

The best way for the infantry to deal with such a fierce cavalry charge was to use chariots to respond to the battle, but this army rushed to Datong, and the original task was to reinforce the attacked pass, and it did not carry any chariots for flat ground combat at all.

If the enemy was to be held back by the spears of the hoplites, they should be arranged in three circles with a depth of sixteen columns, five or six zhang apart, in order to be able to contain the charge of the cavalry, but at this time they were no longer in charge.

The Tartar army made a surprise attack on Baishan Mountain, originally in order to succeed in the first battle, so they all carried an excess of arrows, each of them brought sixty wolf's tooth arrows, and now there are more than ten arrows left in each person's bag, and the arrows are fired in a volley from a distance, and ten thousand arrows are emptied, and the momentum is terrifying.

The pikemen of the border army shouted, and crouched on the ground, holding a two-zhang red tassel rod gun in their right hand, the handle end was heavily on the ground, and the left hand held a round shield to cover the top of their heads, the small round shield was not big, but the soldiers crouched on the ground, and the small shield was enough to protect the vital points of the soldiers.

But the arrows of the Tartars were so dense that the snow-white ground brushed the ground like a large field of weeds, and the arrows at a tricky angle still hit some of the soldiers. Immediately afterward, the dragon-like Tartar Iron rode in.

This kind of two-zhang long red tassel gun with white wax rod as the body, bamboo accumulation bamboo for the body, and then densely wrapped with multiple layers of silk linen, layers of good lacquer above the top to glue fastening, and finally the whole body is painted black, the gun barrel is rigid and soft, tough, ordinary knives and axes are difficult to hurt, can be vigorously and not broken, toughness is not inferior to the gun barrel made of steel, and is relatively light.

The Tatar iron horsemen rushed to death, they knew that they were dead, but there was no second way to go, and even as long as they hesitated for a moment, they would follow a steady stream of iron horsemen to squeeze and trample to death, and they could only rush forward, whether they were afraid or unwilling in their hearts.

The dense spear shone with a dazzling cold, pointing diagonally upwards at a thirty-five degree angle, and before the horse could touch the tip of the spear, the knight on the horse let out a desperate roar, stood up and waved the broadsword in his hand and slashed downward.

The sound of "poof" and "click" was incessant, it was the sound of the spear penetrating the flesh and blood of the horse's body and the sound of being broken by a huge force, the knight on the horse was screaming, the pikemen blocking the ground were also screaming, the man was on his back, and the blood was splashing.

The sound of hooves was like thunder, and the second row of cavalry arrived with great speed, and the blood in the air had not yet landed, and their horses' hooves had trampled the horses and human bodies to the ground mercilessly, and the dull puff of guns and halberds penetrating the human body of horses, and the desperate cries of soldiers.

What if the company camp is a forest of guns and halberds? The Tartars came like a tidal wave, and the warriors who rushed to the front were like waves crashing into the rocks, and they rose violently in a roar, and then fell down so hard that they were broken to pieces, and the latter waves continued to crash up without hesitation.

The dense array of guns in nine columns could not stop the unstoppable Tatar army, and the "boar head" finally stumbled and broke the interception formation and continued to flee for his life in the valley. The corpses of people and horses in Taniguchi were scattered all over the place, and the speed of the fleeing army was slow.

At this time, Zhang Yin's headquarters officers and soldiers have been dispersed into four huge phalanxes outside the valley, constantly firing sharp arrows at the Tatar cavalry that are coming densely, this is the valley mouth, Boyan and Huo Sieve know that if they fall in love here, so that the Ming army that has seized the valley of the valley entrance is calmly arranged, then the general trend will go, as soon as the chasing soldiers from all walks of life arrive, it will become the valley of destruction in front of the rejection gate, and it is an unintentional war, but the army is strictly ordered to rush through the valley at the fastest speed under the rain of guns and arrows to join the troops who are struggling to resist the capture gate.

"Brush!" The white feathers roared in the sky, "Ah", a terrible scream sounded from the ranks, and the arrow-hit people with half of the carved feathers outside their bodies dismounted one after another, and the follow-up cavalry continued to rush forward with their usual surnames.

The Tatar soldiers had never fought such a battle, if it was a frontal battle, the four phalanxes of the Ming army in the valley could not withstand their cavalry rush at all, once they were divided, cut off the Ming army's recognition flag and order flag, these Ming army infantry cavalry who had lost their organization and command could not withstand their hour's sprint and slaughter.

However, who knows how many reinforcements are coming from the Ming court one after another, and eating this Ming army means that they have to be buried here with the whole army, rushing fast horses, dense with people, they can't even shoot arrows to counterattack, they can only continue to rush, rush, rush in the blow of arrow rain and firecrackers! There are constantly people falling off their horses, and people are constantly dying.

The Tartars who rushed into the valley saw the Great Wall pass in sight, but a ray of joy had just surfaced, and they were greeted by a fatal rain of arrows from Deng Xueying's department, which had already occupied the high ground. "Vertical shield! Vertical shield! Someone shouted in Mongolian, but the Ming army was condescending, and even though the wooden shield and the iron leaf shield were taken off at a gallop, they were also protecting people and horses, and where the arrows fell, blood flowed like a river.

"Divide the troops to attack the mountain and seize that high ground!" Someone shouted the order, and the two Tartar generals howled loudly and led thousands of soldiers and horses to rush to the hillside, they did not seek to really capture this high ground, as long as they contained the Ming army and covered the main force to break through smoothly.

The hillside was not conducive to horseback riding, but the Mongol warriors who jumped off their horses were still skilled in bows and arrows, and the sharp arrows, which were faster and longer than the Ming army, temporarily suppressed the Deng command, and bought precious time with their lives, and the Tartars in the valley continued to rush in, flowing like a flood to the Rejection Gate.

Tartar has rushed into the valley for the most part, under the continuous attack of the Ming army, there are dead bodies everywhere inside and outside the valley, the pursuers of the Ming army arrived, Zhang Yin rode a horse and stood on a low slope, with a long spear in his hand, the handle of the gun was on the ground, he was paying attention to the battlefield situation, and suddenly saw the banner of the Ming army from afar, his eyes were fixed, and he couldn't help but flash a touch of disappointment in his eyes.

Jing Fuer, who chased the Tatar horse butt to pick up the cheap, chased to Datong, the horsepower was already insufficient, he used a sixty-pound broadsword, it was too heavy, the war horse was overwhelmed, and he was rushing back from the Flying Fox Ferry with all his might, never stopped all the way, he really couldn't chase anymore, as soon as he saw that the siege of Datong City was lifted, he got off the horse and went to see his father-in-law first, and at this time the soldiers and horses of the two partial generals under Wang Shouren were chasing behind.

The Ming pursuers from afar lazily dropped out of the distance through a stone's throw away, as if they were sending the remnants of the Tatar soldiers out of the customs, how could there be a little meaning of revenge for the monarch's father? If it is said that they are not strong in horsepower, but when they saw that there were friendly troops intercepting in front of them, they suddenly increased their horse speed and galloped quickly.

He sighed heavily in his heart, and then he shook his spirits, lifted the Zhangba spear, and pointed at the tip of the spear and shouted: "The three armies are exhausted, cut off the Tartar and cut off the last one, kill!" ”

As he spoke, he kicked the horse's belly with his legs, and led his own team of soldiers and horses to rush out.

Zhang Yin seems to be a Confucian general, but he immediately has a lot of kung fu, a Zhangba spear is like a poisonous snake spitting letters, suddenly on the left, suddenly on the right, crisscrossing the enemy formation, shuttling back and forth, picking, stabbing, stabbing, sweeping, the gun is difficult to find traces, and five or six Tartars will be picked off the horse in an instant.

Hundreds of his pro-troops followed, like a sharp blade cutting off the way of the last thousand or so Tartars, only slowly, the Ming army of the brigade had blocked the valley mouth, the sound of horses' hooves behind them, and the two guerrilla generals also rushed over with tens of thousands of cavalry.

Ahead of them was a dense forest of guns, and the shooters with bows and arrows and firearms stared coldly at them on both wings, and as soon as the Ming general who stopped in front of them gave an order, he fired a volley of arrows. At this time, the back hooves are like thunder, and they are getting closer and closer.

The Tatar commander lifted the reins of his horse and looked around, and suddenly unwillingly raised his saber and stretched it high into the sky, and sang sadly and indignantly: "The stars and the sky are spinning, and the nations are fighting, and there is no time to go to bed and sleep."

rob each other, plunder each other. The world was turned upside down, the nations were attacking, and there was no time to sleep under the covers.

Fighting each other, killing, no time to think, only do your best.

There is no place to escape, only a charge to fight. ”

More than a thousand Tatar cavalrymen raised their blood-soaked weapons high and sang in unison, and the majestic and desolate voice echoed in the valley mouth.

Although they could not understand their language, every soldier of the Ming army could hear and see from their expressions and voices that these more than 1,000 Tatar cavalry had determined to fight a decisive battle with tens of thousands of Ming troops before and after, and they would not surrender to the death.

"Go where you have spoken, and go and smash the solid stone; Attack where you say, go and destroy the hard rock; Split the mountains, dry the deep waters, and kill the enemy bravely, so that the whole land becomes the pasture of the Mongols! ”

No one gave an order, and after the last sentence was sung, all the Mongolian cavalry turned around in unison, raised their swords, kicked, and lightly lifted their hips, and rushed towards the Ming cavalry who were chasing after them! They are cruel, bloodthirsty, and greedy, but they are also bloody, brave, and proud, and they would rather fight to the death with the knights of another nation as heroes on horseback!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! The fire bolt sounded, and four or five feathered arrows had pierced deep into the back of the broad platform that had just turned around, and blood spurted out along the shaft of the arrow, and at the same time, the leather robe was shattered by the dense projectiles.

His eyes widened in anger, "Why don't you let me die heroically?" Kuo Kuotai wanted to turn around and question Ming Jun, but his strong arm was no longer able to grasp the reins of the horse, and his body only shook for a moment, and then he fell off the horse with angry eyes

"A robber is a robber, although he is very brave, he is just a brave robber, when have you ever seen an officer and soldier kill a robber and talk to him about the rules?" Two years later, Lu Erniu, who was promoted to the rank of 100 households, mentioned this war, and said vigorously to the soldiers under him.

The emperor drove back to the city, and the people of the whole city had heard of the heroic deeds of the young Son of Heaven who set a clever plan to defeat the Tatar iron horsemen, and if they saw Huang Luo umbrella cover leaving the city to go to Baishan Mountain, they were only full of curiosity about the Son of Heaven who lived in the Forbidden City. Now their welcome is completely from the heart.

The emperor is the representative of the Han people, and his glory is the glory of the entire Han people, who doesn't want his own leader to be a hero who can make him proud and proud?

Although the rumors that spread rapidly in the market are absurd and illogical, the death toll of the Tatars has increased exponentially, and even exceeded the total population of the entire steppe desert, but the people are willing to spread it and believe in it.

The speed of Yang Yiqing's reinforcement has reached the limit of the infantry, but after all, he can't catch up with the speed of the four-legged run, and tens of thousands of troops received the news that the emperor returned to the city halfway and his troops were outside Datong City.

His troops swept to the city of Datong, looking at the majesty of the army, the armor is distinct, how can there be a little bit of war, in the eyes of the people, it confirms the emperor's personal conquest, the soldiers are fierce and fierce to one hundred to one thousand, and the Boyan Khan lost his armor and fled to the wind.

Dai Wang, Hu Zhan, Yang Yiqing, and Du Renguo greeted the holy car at the gate of Datong, and as soon as Emperor Zhengde arrived, several people immediately knelt on the ground and fell to the ground. Yang Yiqing had a lot of worries along the way, and as the general system of the three passes, he was responsible for the defense of the entire theater. Now that the emperor did not encounter the assassins and bandits, but the entire main force of the Tatar emperor entered the pass and killed Bai Shanshan, he really couldn't think of any reason to excuse himself.

Luan stopped driving, Emperor Zhengde strode in front of a few people, the little face had been wiped clean, and the emperor's embarrassed appearance was of course not seen by the courtiers.

The acting king's well-maintained hands pressed into the dirty snow, knelt down, and said in a trembling voice: "The emperor was attacked, and the criminal ministers could not escape the blame, please punish the emperor severely!" ”

Hu Zhan, Yang Yiqing, and Du Renguo kowtowed together and said: "The guilty minister is dead, please ask the emperor to punish the crime!" ”

The generals and officials from all walks of life who came to greet him knelt down one by one, and tens of thousands of troops knelt down solemnly, silently.

Among them, the only ones who are upright and worried are Dai Wang, Hu Zan and Yang Yiqing, Yang Yiqing is the current general system of the three passes, needless to say. Hu Zan is the governor of Datong, Yang Yiqing controlled the military and political affairs of Datong before the three armies, and the officials below the thousand generals were all appointed by him, although he is a civilian, and he is not familiar with military affairs, Wang Hu and Li Yi are both recommended by the generals in the army, and then appointed by him, but who does this reason say?

As for the acting king, as the border king who guarded Datong, although he did not interfere too much in military affairs, after all, he was the nominal highest official, and he had the right to command the army in wartime.

Zhengde was full of joy when he stepped out of the sedan chair, and when he heard this, he suddenly remembered the thrilling scene when he was climbing the mountain in Baishan, and his face suddenly sank.

The more he sat in the sedan chair all the way, the more he thought about it, the happier he became, this battle was a heavy setback to Boyan, the position of the Great Khan of Boyan was afraid that he would not be able to sit steadily, and the flames of civil strife were ignited on the grassland, at least in exchange for ten years of peace in the borderlands, and there was the cooperation of Duoyan Sanwei, and there was a division within the Tatars, if everything developed according to Yang Ling's vision, it was possible to unify the desert during his reign, and it was a land of several provinces.

Although Zhengde is young, he also knows what it means, and expands his territory! In the temple, his status will surpass that of his father and ancestors, and he will become the holy monarch second only to the founding emperor. How many emperors have been able to make great contributions in their lives by conscientiously ruling the world, but he has just changed Yuan Zhengde and become the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he has done it.

The child's temper and fear are gone, and he only thinks about beautiful things: doesn't an immortal like heroes? Didn't she say that her future husband should be a great hero who stands up to the sky, and he must have the ability to protect her, and he must have the ability to protect the people of the Ming Dynasty from being bullied, didn't I do it?

Hey! When I went to the Flower Pavilion with Yang Ling, I was beaten and met Tang Yixian, this time I went to Baishan Mountain with him, and I was smoked by arsenic croton into a big flower face but achieved immortality, he is really my lucky general, this kind of small loss and big advantage in the future, the more the better.

The more Zhengde thought about it, the more beautiful he became, he got off the sedan chair and his eyebrows danced, listening to the plead of the king and others, his anger came up again, Zhengde just wanted to attack, Liu Dabang suddenly shouted loudly with a loud voice: "The emperor is strategizing, wise and martial, defeating the Boyan Khan, forming an alliance with Duoyan Sanwei, he is really the emperor of the world, the emperor of the ages!" Long live our emperor! Banzai! Hooray! ”

"Long live our emperor! Banzai! Hooray! Tens of thousands of troops knelt down in unison, and the sound shook the roof tiles, which could almost make the eagles fall to the ground, and the shouts did not stop, and the people who welcomed them in the city also cheered.

Yang Ling took a step forward, coughed, and whispered: "Your Majesty, all the soldiers and people of the border army are praising Your Majesty's merits", said and glanced at the big mallet approvingly, although this guy is illiterate, but it is good to remember the surname, only teach him once, no matter what it means or not, anyway, he memorized it word for word.

As soon as Zhengde heard Yang Ling's words, his anger suddenly subsided, and it was not appropriate to spread the matter of annihilation in the army, so as not to cause panic among the people, not to mention that if the world knew that his own work was stumbled by mistake, it would be no glory, maybe the old men in Erjing would have to use this matter to make a big fuss, and it would be better to deal with this matter quietly.

Thinking of this, Zhengde put on a smiling face and said with a smile: "You Aiqing has severely defeated the Tatars, and the credit is in the community, what is the crime?" If Uncle Wang had not been able to defend Datong and refuse to go out of the city alone to avoid being taken advantage of by the enemy, not only would Datong fall into the hands of the enemy, causing thousands of people to suffer, but I would have to flee back to Beijing in a hurry. As for Yang Qing and other generals, I have clear rewards and punishments, the so-called flaws are not hidden, and merit is not hidden, come, you Aiqing will be flat, go back to the city with me first, and the enemy will be severely punished for rebellion, but now it is the time for the whole city to celebrate together, and this is set aside in advance."

Hu Zan heard that he only mentioned the king and Yang Yiqing, but he didn't mention a word, so he knew that this black pot had to be carried by himself, but those two generals were indeed appointed when he was the governor to supervise the military affairs of Datong. So he stood up silently and said nothing.

Yang Ling's whispering to Zhengde was very small, Zhang Yin, who was kneeling behind, did not hear it, but he observed the expressions of the two very carefully, Zhengde first showed anger, and then he was able to quietly endure and neglect his precautions, such a major event as trapping the emperor in danger, must have listened to Yang Ling's whispers, this person's influence on the emperor is too great.

The plan to assassinate the emperor by the hand of Yang Hu failed, and the plan to eradicate the emperor by the hand of Boyan failed again, and every time there was only a little accident in the plan, it was this mistake that made him fall behind others, passive step by step, and the plan of precision design must not be changed again and again, which is really unwilling.

Is it because I haven't exhausted my righteous spirit, or am I unlucky? Boyan's tens of thousands of troops can't assassinate the emperor, it seems that they have to change their ways, and if they can't get rid of King Zhengde Baoning and succeed to the throne smoothly, then I will provoke King Ning's ambitions and let Daming play another good show of uncle seizing the power of his nephew.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yin quietly glanced at Yang Ling, and said in his heart: "This person is so good in front of the emperor, why can't you take advantage of him instead of going through all the trouble to get rid of him?" Yang Hu is the number one hero in Bazhou, and Boyan is the hero of the desert, I can use their greed to play with them, can't I take advantage of Yang Ling? If a person is good, he has weaknesses, is he good power, good profit, good name or lustful? ”

Zhang Yin pondered the information he knew about Yang Ling, and nodded imperceptibly: "This person is proud of his youth, and his favorites are nothing more than power and sex!" He can go behind his wife to seek medical treatment, resist the holy decree, obviously a young spirit, love the woman he loves, such a person is not difficult to deal with, I may be able to put a reliable eye and ear by his side, even if it does not affect him, it will certainly allow me to grasp enough court secrets. ”

Zhang Yin thought quietly: "I am drunk and sleeping under the pomegranate skirt, and I still remember my small waist when I wake up." What the emperor can give him is rights. And this religion, but there are many beautiful women. To deal with such a young minister, it is most appropriate to use beauty as a stepping stone! ”
