Zhang Keda led the whole army to the foot of the mountain, and immediately began to get busy, and Jiannu left him with little time.

He and Liao Zhengyuan commanded the soldiers to dig a deep trench two zhang wide and one zhang deep on the east and west sides of the foot of the mountain, the purpose was to prevent and delay the Jiannu army from outflanking from both wings, after all, 5,000 people against tens of thousands of people can only try to narrow the battle line, otherwise it is needless to say that the siege on all sides, but the siege on three sides will also make the Denglai army take care of itself, and if one is not good, it will be defeated.

At the same time, Zhang Keda sent men and horses to recall the night and cavalry who were scouting around, there is no need to conduct any exploration today, what is needed now is to concentrate troops for a decisive battle, even if a soldier is extremely valuable to Zhang Keda, who is absolutely inferior in military strength.

Two hours later, the two deep trenches were dug up, and it was not easy for thousands of soldiers to work in turns, after all, in addition to a hundred iron catalpa, they did not have too many tools, and finally they used waist knives to dig, so they reluctantly opened a deep trench in the frozen earth, but fortunately, the frozen soil on it was only more than a foot deep.

At this moment, the dust rose in the eastern sky, and the ground shook, at first it was undetectable, and finally the shaking of the earth was clearly felt.

A black line appeared on the horizon, followed by a black cloud, slowly surging westward.

Zhang Keda did not let the soldiers stand up to prepare for battle, but let them continue to rest, the battle is still early, one is that it is now almost evening, and the enemy has no desire to fight at night. Another is that the enemy wants to fight a decisive battle as soon as possible. Just arranging the troops will have to be good for a while. There's no rush.

Zhang Keda and Liao Zhengyuan were urging their horses forward to look out at the enemy formation under the escort of the guards.

Zhang Keda took a closer look with a telescope, and saw cyan flags fluttering everywhere in front of him, which was the banner of the Han Army Flag.

The soldiers in front of them were wearing leather armor and vests, but they also looked similar, Zhang Keda knew at a glance that it was the Han army of Jiannu, and the red flag, the red flag, the red flag, the two white flags, and the two yellow flags were inlaid behind, and the light of the iron armor shone on the earth, so a majestic and vicious.

Zhang Keda sat upright and stared speechlessly. With the support of Zhao Lie, his own soldiers are just trying their best to match the armor, and now the Han army of Jiannu is also relatively complete in armor, even the cotton armor is also armor.

And if Zhao Lie hadn't given support to the Denglai soldiers on his face, I'm afraid most of them would still be covered by cloth clothes now.

Zhang Keda's heart welled up with indescribable sorrow, what is wrong with Daming, this is not a question that a military general can figure out, but this idea has already been born in his heart, Daming has been worried about external troubles in the past 20 years, the change of emperors, and the change of ministers. No one can solve the problem, but the government is getting more and more corrupt.

Zhang Ke's small team of 200 people stood there quietly in the face of the overwhelming tens of thousands of armor soldiers.

Look where the enemy striker has approached to Rich. Liao Zhengyuan hurriedly said, "My lord, let's go back to the military formation to prepare for battle." ”

Zhang Keda nodded silently, turned his horse around first, and the small army formation stepped on the small dust and headed north.

Behind them is the scene of the dusty army marching, and the strange thing is that the absolute superiority of military strength is the army of Jiannu who entered the army, which is really a great irony of the Ming Dynasty.

Shi Tingzhu, Shang Kexi, Zu Kefa and others, who were in charge of the Han army banner in front, did not wait for the Jiannu master behind them to speak, and immediately restrained the 15,000 Han army to surround the Denglai army at the foot of the mountain in the north.

By the time the 20,000 Jiannu army led by Azig Dolgon, who was behind, the Han army banner had already surrounded all the Denglai troops at the foot of the mountain.

Azig and Dolgon split the Han army banner under the retinue of hundreds of guards and came to the front.

Shi Tingzhu, Shang Kexi, and Zu Kefa hurriedly surrounded them, the master arrived, how dare they slack off, otherwise they would simply not know whether to live or die.

Azig and Dolgon looked at the Denglai army on the opposite side, and saw that the Denglai army on the opposite side was in a neat formation, with more than 1,000 cavalry and more than 3,000 infantry.

These generals were all in armor, and various flags were fluttering in the array, and one of the big flags was written with Dou Da Denglai General Soldier and Zhang.

"Brother Twelve, this is not Zhao Lie's command, I'm afraid there is no one." Dolgon fought against Zhao Liejun in Lushun, and the bravery of the black and red Zhao Lie's troops made him unforgettable for life.

Azig also experienced the Battle of Lushun, he nodded, there is not a single soldier here that belongs to Zhao Lie,

"It's a pity,"

Azig was very regretful, his mind was to want to kill Zhao Lie, take a step back and kill Zhao Lie's subordinates, and the strongest man of the Ming Army field duel is what he has been longing for, you must know that now he Azig is the most famous Heshuo Belle of Dajin.

"However, capturing Zhang Keda, the chief soldier of Denglai of the Ming Kingdom, is also worth the trip." Dolgon looked at the big banner and said.

"It's getting late today, let's call this Zhang Keduo to live for one night, hahaha." Azig smiled grinningly.

Dolgon looked at the sunset in the west and nodded, at this time the battle entered the night, which was conducive to the enemy fleeing at night in the melee, and was not conducive to the encirclement and suppression of the Jurchen army.

Azig issued a military order, and the Han military banner began to get busy, they wanted to build a large camp, of course, the first thing was to build a large camp for the masters, and they were the life of this minion.

Bonfires were everywhere at both ends of the night front, and soldiers on both sides chose to use bonfires to survive the cold winter nights.

It's just that the south side is much more noisy, and the north side is quiet, and the two sides are distinct.

"My lord, here I am commanding the army to fight the enemy in a decisive battle, and my lord and the guards will retreat from the back mountain to the north."

Liao Zhengyuan persuaded that he followed Zhang Keda in the south, and this time he came from the south to the north to follow Zhang Keda, and he was also a descendant, and he hoped that Zhang Keda could return to Denglai, at least someone could take care of their family.

"Zhengyuan Xiu is going to talk about it again, I, Zhang Keda, brought these soldiers from Denglai here, including more than 1,000 Nanjing Qi disciples, if this will be abandoned in battle, how can I have face to stand in heaven and earth in the future."

Zhang Keda categorically rejected Liao Zhengyuan's suggestion.

"Tomorrow's battle will be defeated by our army, there is no luck, of course there will be people to avenge this blood revenge for us, and the good days of Jiannu will not last long."

Liao Zhengyuan was stunned, what strong army in the Ming Dynasty could defeat Jiannu, could it be Zhao Lie's department,

"My lord said that Zhao Lie's department, but Zhao Lie only had less than 10,000 soldiers under his command, and Jiannu's military strength has increased greatly, but there are tens of thousands of Han army banners, I'm afraid..."

Liao Zhengyuan is not very optimistic, after all, no matter how strong Zhao Lie's military strength is, it is limited in number, and the infantry team is the mainstay, so it is decided that it cannot fight against Jiannu in the field, but if you defend the city, the victory cannot be chased, and the victory is indefinite.

Zhang Keda smiled slightly, "Liao Zhengyuan, you have seen the preparations of Denglaiwei and Jinghaiwei, what do you think of their combat strength." ”

Liao Zhengyuan hesitated for a moment, "Its elite is better than our army, but it doesn't have armor to protect it." ”

"If Zhao Lie matches it with armor, it must be a strong army, at least there is no problem in guarding Denglai."

Zhang Keda expressed his judgment.

"This can't be, after all, there is no battle formation." If the soldiers have not been on the battlefield and have not seen blood, then they are not a strong army, Liao Zhengyuan shook his head.

"Hahaha, you all let Zhao Lie deceive," Zhang Keda looked up at the starry sky and smiled, "In the past, Zhao Lie was bitter and bitter, and repeatedly said that he had scattered all his family wealth, but in the end, he was equipped with all the soldiers and horses. Although he didn't know where the Zhao family got the money and food, as long as he wanted to, he had military armor to distribute, but Zhao Lie or the Zhao family didn't want to make enemies with the imperial court, so it dragged on until now. ”

"This, this is more than 20,000 reserve troops, I'm afraid the Zhao family is also powerless." Liao Zhengyuan still doesn't believe it, more than 20,000 reserve troops are all iron armor, he really doesn't believe it, he doesn't believe it at all.

"Zhao Lie doesn't need to equip all the reserves with iron armor at all, as long as they are equipped with leather armor and cotton armor, more than 20,000 reserve soldiers are enough to protect Denglai, he only needs to recruit another 3,000 armor soldiers, and he can free up these 10,000 soldiers."

Zhang Keda pointed out the critical point.

Liao Zhengyuan thought about it, if there are 10,000 elite soldiers, they are really the first male soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

"Zhao Lie and Jiannu are incompatible, and the town doesn't know why this is so, but Zhao Lie can be regarded as the last reliance of my Ming Dynasty to restrain Jiannu, today we are here to die for the country, and in the future it will be Zhao Lie who will avenge us, if Zhao Lie can't do it, Daming will no longer have anyone to make Jiannu."

Zhang Keda got up irritably and looked at the noisy Jiannu camp on the other side, and the resentment and grievance in his heart were beyond words.

He firmly believed that only Zhao Lie could defeat Jiannu, but according to his estimates, Zhao Lie would have a maximum of 10,000 soldiers, and there was still a huge difference between him and Jiannu, and it was also a big question whether Zhao Lie could turn the tide and avenge the Denglai army.

"Where is Wang Linquan?" Zhang Ke shouted.

Wang Linquan, one of the leaders of the guards, hurriedly ran over in small steps and knelt down to greet him, "Wang Linquan sees my lord." ”

"Wang Linquan, you have been following this town since you were sixteen years old, and now ten years later, I have always known that you are bold and careful, and this time this time there is a big matter in this town handed over to you."

Zhang Keda looked at this subordinate cronie fixedly.

"The little one has been lonely since childhood, and if there is no adult Jane, I am afraid that he will have already died in the wilderness, but the adult has orders, and the little one will definitely go to the soup and fire."

Wang Linquan kowtowed cleanly.

"Well, good, good," Zhang Keda nodded with satisfaction, "Wang Linquan, you take a few people to climb the hill behind you early tomorrow morning, and carefully watch the decisive battle between my Denglai army and Jiannu, everything is in mind, after the defeat of our army, we must immediately go north from the back mountain, and we must return to Dengzhou alive to find Lord Zhao Lie, and tell Lord Zhao Lie exactly what you saw, do you know." ”

"My lord, Wang Linquan swears to stay by my lord's side." Wang Linquan stiffened his neck and was reluctant to receive his life, in his opinion, his life was saved by Zhang Keda, and he fled alone at the time of Engong's death, which was really shameless.

"This is the general's order, and in the future, it will all depend on Zhao Lie to avenge the thousands of Denglai troops. You want no one to avenge us. Zhang Ke glared angrily.

Wang Linquan choked with tears and kowtowed heavily.
