Seeing more than a dozen of his companions being neatly cut off by the firing squad outside, a cadre of cavalry in Datong Town was a little commotion, but when they saw the Huwei army teams waiting for the battle, they were afraid to quiet down. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although they are cavalry, and the number of cavalry in Datong Town is almost twice that of the cavalry of the Huwei Army, the firearms of the Huwei Army's foot soldiers, as well as the Jizhen cavalry that are eyeing each other, have made the cavalry of Datong Town understand that if they move, they may be killed by these two sides.

Two days ago, I went to the tribe of the Tartars to burn and kill, and the soldiers of Datong Town were all in the pocket A lot of benefits, and they may die on the battlefield, but they are well deserved, if they get up with their own people and are finally extinguished, it will be unlucky, and the money they have earned can't help but be gone, and their parents, wives and children will be affected.

"Bunny, it's really lawless, snatching a slippery hand!? If you encounter the Tartar brigade outside, it is not a death, if you are captured alive and brought here to threaten, isn't it dead, deserved, cut right! ”

Seeing that the plea had no effect, Ma Yong hated and scolded where the cavalry in Datong Town was originally formed by the generals and personal soldiers from all over Datong, and when they began to go to the battlefield, the few things that Wang Tong did ruthlessly did were still deterring them, and they did not dare to move in a proper manner.

But after going to loot the big Mongolian tribe, the burning and indulgence made them a little unable to control it, and they thought that Wang Tong was not strict with such things.

There are more or less benefits over there, but after all, there are more and less, and when they see that others get more, they are naturally not convinced, so they have the courage to make an appointment to do a vote.

There are also small tribes of dozens of people and a hundred people on the grassland, and the army will not do anything to them, and they have to avoid it from afar, but they are targeted by the cavalry of these Datong towns, and they leave the team without permission to do a vote.

A dozen cavalrymen went over, and they really ransacked the small tribe, and when they came back, they were caught outside by Wang Tong's personal guards before they could boast to their companions.

"What does the commander ask you to do, you can do it, if you don't follow the order to do it, or do it without authorization, it is a violation of military law, the army is out of the war, the commander does not beat the military stick, directly cut off the head, I feel that the neck is harder than the big knife, just go and do nonsense!"

More than a dozen bloody heads, the strong combat power displayed by the Huwei arms and cavalry, made everyone silent, and the military discipline that seemed to be a little lax because of indulgence in burning and killing was purged again. …………

"The army is moving in this direction, according to the captured spies, the Tartars should be a few miles away from the Naturalization City, or relying on the Naturalization City to wait for our army!"

Although the grassland north of Datong is not a mysterious area, the Ming Dynasty still does not have a relatively detailed map, and the current map is still taken from the previous map, and the guide and merchants jointly refer to it and correct it.

The lights in the military tent were bright, Wang Tong and several others gathered in front of the bookcase, the bookcase was covered with a map, and Wang Tong's hand poked a few times at the location of the Naturalization City.

"There is still a day to go, the cavalry is easy to maneuver, the Tartars may not stay under the city and wait for our army, or it is possible to use partial divisions to cut off the rear of our army, and then send troops to attack and harass the flank of our army, and then it will be broken with a drum."

Yang Jin said in a deep voice, Wang Tong's judgment is too simple, now it is a grassland area, the cavalry of the Tartars has strong mobility ability, and they are familiar with the terrain, so they will naturally have all kinds of responses, what Wang Tong said is too simple and direct, and the Tartars are also veterans who have fought for many years, how can this be.

"Vice General Yang, do we have a way back?"

Wang Tong was able to get up from the map, and asked indifferently, Yang Jin hadn't answered, but Ma Yong's expression on the side was a little gloomy, and he sighed in a low voice, Yang Jin said in a deep voice: "Since you came here with Dashuai, what is the way back, defeated, even if you can return to Daming, I'm afraid you have to take out your head to appease people." ”

Wang Tong asked about the military geography, but Yang Jin replied differently, but it also showed what he was worried about, not to mention Ma Yong's expression.

It's already here, what's the use of worrying, Wang Tong didn't answer this conversation, but said: "We bring our own grain and grass, that is to say, the cavalry of the Tatars wants to attack our army, and the only thing that can be fought is our army's camp, but we take the car as a formation, how to fight, from any direction, we have to form a formation to defend the defense, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, whether they are intercepting from the rear road, or attacking the flanks of the division, they need to maneuver quickly, but once they move fast, they can't carry heavy equipment, such a light horse comes, isn't that to death?" ”

The prison army Cai Nan sat on the side and kept silent, and interjected at this time: "There is no grain road, there is no place to store grain and grass, the Tartars should also find out in the past two days, no matter how much our cart brings, there is a certain number after all, and the Tartars should also understand this." ”

"What the superintendent said is that our army's food and grass are limited, let my army march for one more day, that is, consume a day's grain and grass, our army's morale will panic, they will take advantage of a point, plus the front of the Yan was defeated by us, they also have no bottom in their hearts, the troops are under the fortified city, and it is naturally best to beat us, but we can't beat us, retreat into the city, but 30,000 soldiers and horses, how can they besiege such a big city, they will inevitably run out of grain and grass and retreat, and it will not be too late to chase and kill when the time comes."

"Dashuai, my subordinates have calculated the grain and grass, even if there are those cattle and sheep to replenish, it is only enough for a day of battle, and then return, how can such a big war be seen in one day."

Ma Yong, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but say, although before coming, Ma Dong had told him a lot, but now in this situation, one victory after another has been won, but the hidden worries are getting heavier and heavier, if Wang Tong falls because of this incident, it will naturally not be of any benefit to the Ma family, and even this little power cannot be preserved.

"If we can't see it one day, let's go back immediately, the Tartars can't break our car formation, can't stop our movements, how to come and how to go back, you can tell these words to the soldiers below you, Jizhen is well-informed, Datong Town is a veteran, and naturally understands this truth."

"It's too inappropriate for the marshal to say this, how can he explain the truth of only one day of war with the soldiers below, what to do if this day passes, what to do if the battle situation continues, since the marshal said this, his subordinates all know it, and when the time comes, listen to the commander's dispatch."

Hearing that they were so conservative, Wang Tong shook his head with a smile and said, "Ben Shuai has made this plan, and he is so sure. ”

After saying that, Yang Jin and Ma Yong must be worried in their hearts, originally they felt that Wang Tong should be treated as a mature military commander if they dealt with it properly in the past few days, but when they said this today, they still felt young and reckless, and the two glanced at each other, both of them were ready to make plans when the time came.

Wang Tong is right about one thing, at present, the Ming army's car formation seems to be a turtle shell, no matter how bad it is, it can be defended completely, and it is a big deal to retreat.

Take a few steps back and say, even if you go back to Daming now, there are thousands of levels in your hands, and the soldiers are coming to the naturalized city, this is a great achievement that is not born in the world, enough to be proud, rich for several generations, and this series of battles, so that Yang Jin and Ma Yong, the generals who were originally very afraid of the Tartars, feel that the Tartars are not so strong, as long as they find the right tactics and do not let the Tartars' cavalry rush and wave to work, they can be invincible.

With this bottom line, you can clearly judge some problems, Yang Jin and Ma Yong should say that it is getting late, the war is imminent, everyone has to take care of their spirits, and it is inconvenient to disturb more, just about to retire, Tan Jian outside hurriedly walked in, and when he saw that Yang Jin and Ma Yong were there, he was relieved, bowed and saluted and said: "Marshal, my lords, the guerrilla cavalry has just captured four people, these four people claim to be messengers sent by the Tartar Great Khan, and they want to meet the marshal." ”

Wang Tong was stunned, and sat down with a smile, he understood why Tan Jian looked relieved, there were people from the non-Tiger Mighty Army system present, and there was also a circumstantial evidence when he met the Tartar envoy.

Wang Tong felt a little surprised about this envoy's matter, turned his head and asked Cai Nan and Yang Jin with a smile: "Cai Jianjun, Deputy General Yang, does this make you see it or not?" ”

When these words came out, Yang Jin was still there hesitating and didn't speak, Cai Nan smiled and said, "See it or not, the big handsome is in charge." ”

Wang Tong nodded, and said to Tan Jian: "How many Han people and how many Tartars are there among the envoys?" ”

Tan Jian was stunned, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "The subordinates hurriedly came to report, but before they had time to ask, the subordinates went over."

Wang Tong leaned on the back of the chair, waved his hand and said, "Don't look at it, the Tartars have all been killed, and the traitor will keep one, cut off the traitor's ear, and let him carry the rest of the people's heads back." ”

Talking and laughing about to kill, Tan Jian was stunned there before he reacted, bowed down and agreed to get out of the tent, Yang Jin hurriedly said: "Dashuai, the two countries are fighting, don't kill the envoys, the other party sends people over, is Dashuai meeting!?" ”

To Yang Jin's words, Wang Tong smiled and said disdainfully: "What two countries, this marshal led the army here to exterminate the horse thieves on the grassland, the general of the Tiancheng Dynasty, and the envoys sent by the thieves and bandits have nothing to talk about, the left and right are to be exterminated, bring these heads back, let them not be lucky!" ”

The smile on Tan Jian's face couldn't help it, and he hurriedly bowed down to receive the order, retreated, Wang Tong clapped his hands, and said: "The army of almost 100,000 is about to fight under the city, but these monkey scenes are made over there, it's really funny." ”

On the eighth day of the first month of the twelfth year of Wanli, the Ming army encountered the largest and most frequent scouts on the march, and at least four Tartar cavalry thousand-man teams had been patrolling and monitoring from afar.

The Great War is imminent......
