After the division of troops, they pushed the 71 wagons that had been made overnight towards Juehua Island. These chariots were slightly different from the ones that had been made to attack Ningyuan City before, they did not have a roof, but the pillars in front of the chariots had many more roots.

Ningyuan City is condescending, and the bow and crossbow and fire gun can hit the top of Jiannu, so it must be protected; However, Juehua Island is flat, and it can only shoot horizontally, not from above, so it naturally does not need roof protection. Of course, the tiger squat cannon on Juehua Island can be thrown, and it can also hit the top of the cart, but no matter how thick the log is, it can't bear the smashing of the artillery, since it can't be carried, then it's not good to carry it, anyway, there are many soldiers brought this time, so I don't believe that the cart can't be pushed to the city wall of Juehua Island.

Originally, it would have been better to place iron-clad wooden planks in front of the cart, but in this wilderness, the craftsmen did not bring all the tools, so they had to be simple. The Jiannu soldiers had an idea, and they put their shields between the pillars to protect themselves tightly. But in this way, the weight of the cart is a terrifying number, and more than a dozen Jiannu push it together, which is very difficult. The thief chieftain Nuer Ha Chi was a treacherous old man, and thought of an idea to let Ma pull the cart. Now it's still far away from Juehua Island, and even if the guards over there are clever, it is impossible for them to come here to attack the chariot. And Ning Yuancheng turned himself into a dead turtle, and if he didn't beat them, even if they burned high incense, it would be impossible for them to come to find trouble for themselves.

Four horses were placed in front of each cart, and the degree of the cart was finally faster. However, this speed is also relative to the degree of the person just now, because Jiannu did not have a pedantic and skilled carpenter Emperor Ming four-wheeled vehicle, and half of the weight of the cart was pressed on the horse, and the horse's strength was wasted a lot. Nu'er Ha Chi wanted to let the eight-horse carriage go, but he couldn't let it go. Anyway, it's going to attack Juehua Island tomorrow, so it's okay to move slowly if you're not in a hurry.

But. For the first time, Nu'er Ha Chi had the idea of retreating before the victory, and the destruction of the camp in the east not only brought a heavy psychological blow to Jiannu, but also a huge loss of grain and grass. Fortunately, in order to prevent a large camp from being destroyed and affecting the supply of grain and grass to the whole army, Jiannu divided the grain and grass into four equal parts and stored them in the eastern, southern, western, and northern camps. Therefore, the night attack on Juehua Island only destroyed a quarter of the grain and grass. But at the beginning, Nuer Ha Chi came for the grain and grass in Ningyuan City, thinking that Ningyuan City, like other places, would be broken in one attack, so he didn't bring much grain and grass, and a quarter of the grain and grass was also an unbearable heavy loss for him.

On Ningyuan City, the guards reported the observed movements of Jiannu to Yuan Chonghuan, who was dreaming.

Yuan Chonghuan was so frightened that he almost fell out of bed. He hurriedly dressed and wore a hat, but unfortunately he liked to sleep naked, and he took off very cleanly yesterday. It took a lot of effort to put them on one by one. He wore a hat crookedly, his official robe was scattered, and his belt was crooked, and he looked like a general of a defeated army. He rushed up the city wall and looked to the north, and the soldiers of the current Jiannu escorted the carts towards Ningyuan City, and shouted in fright: "Come on, hurry up and bring the flowering cannonballs and load them." As soon as Jiannu entered the firing range, he immediately set off artillery bombardment! ”

The soldiers replied in unison: "Yes!" ”

But they didn't act. Yuan Chonghuan was furious. Just as he was about to curse, the soldiers whispered to him, the artillerymen had already prepared, and the crossbowmen and sword and shield bearers also stood at their respective posts, and there was no need to give orders again. Yuan Chonghuan gave up in a daze.

Zu Dashou also climbed up the castle tower very wolfly, and as soon as he met, he asked, "My lord." What's going on? Why does Jiannu keep staring at Ning Yuancheng? Could it be that the 250,000 stone grain on Juehua Island couldn't satisfy the greedy appetite of Jiannu? 250,000 stone grain and grass, even if they send all the soldiers to move, it will take a long time, what does it matter if they can't beat Ningyuan City? ”

Yuan Chonghuan asked his soldiers to sort out his clothes for him. While saying: "Maybe the old slave resents this official and ruins his reputation for winning a hundred battles, and wants to capture Ningyuan City to win back face for him." ”

While speaking, the soldiers had already helped Yuan Chonghuan sort out the clothes, and he showed the demeanor of a peerless general, Yushu Linfeng - uh, he looked a little shabby, Yushu Linfeng couldn't talk about it, but a little bit of a monkey and crown.

When Jiannu's convoy was almost within range of Ningyuan City, it suddenly turned a corner and headed east.

Zu Dashou shouted: "Hurry up, artillery, carry the cannon, follow Jiannu, as long as Jiannu attacks the city, immediately find an empty battery and put it, and then fire at them." ”

Jiannu didn't give Ningyuan City a chance to fire their cannons, and they slowly and carefully walked around Ningyuan City towards the ruins of the big camp to the east.

Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dashou looked at each other.

Zu Dashou said: "Could it be that Jiannu doesn't want to attack us, but to attack Juehua Island?" ”

Yuan Chonghuan looked puzzled and said: "It's unlikely, Juehua Island has no danger to defend, and Wang Xiaxe is a mediocre talent, how can he beat Nuer Haqi and even use the car?" ”

"But how do you explain that Jiannu is passing around the city? You must know that outside the entire pass, there is also a place where the Ming garrison is, except for Ningyuan City, which is Juehua Island. ”

"Forget it, Jiannu can go wherever he likes, I have to go back and rest, I was busy all night yesterday, and I was in a hurry to write the paperwork, so I have to take a break."

Zu Dashou smiled flatteringly: "Lord Yuan, can you show the chapter to the lower officials?" I'd love to see your calligraphy. ”

"You? You can't read, what do you see it do? Yuan Chonghuan suddenly realized and said with a smile, "You, you are really cautious, afraid that I will leave you behind." Go and see, just in the study, and then find a literate place to read to you, so that you don't have to worry. ”

Busy until noon, Jiannu finally moved the cart to Dongdaying. Seeing the degree of the chariot, Nu'er Ha Chi was anxious, and urged the Jiannu soldiers to finish lunch, and didn't even give them time to rest, so they continued to hurry. However, no matter how desperate he tried, by nightfall, Jiannu had only traveled twenty miles, which was exactly half the distance from Ningyuan City to Juehua Island.

How do you set up camp? Nuer Haqi remembered that he participated in the famous general Qi Jiguang's partial car formation, and he had an idea to put the car into a semi-circular car formation to guard against the sneak attack of Juehua Island. Then set up a makeshift tent behind the cart.

Zhu Youcheng attaches great importance to the collection of battlefield intelligence, and basically sends scouts out every day, and today is no exception. Tanma reported the situation of Jiannu to Zhu Youcheng, but Zhu Youcheng didn't care, because the penetration of the rifled rear-mounted firearm is amazing, and the tiger squat cannon is the king of the battlefield, and no matter how luxurious the car is, it can't withstand the blows of these two weapons. However, seeing that Nu'er Ha Chi was moving so slowly, Zhu Youcheng left more than 100 people to sentry, and the rest of the people let them rest. Anyway, it is impossible for Jiannu to come over so quickly, and even if he comes, the Jinyi guards sleep with Jia from top to bottom, and they can rush to their respective defensive positions within a quarter of an hour. You know, you will not fight until you rest. Tomorrow there may be a bad battle, and the warriors must be rested. (To be continued!)
