Chapter 360: The Tiger is harmful, and the human being is harmful to the tiger's heart
"What! Tachar wants to marry Yang Po'er? The dignified king of Mongolia, holding the treasure of the imperial prince (Tachar's grandfather was the younger brother of Genghis Khan, and theoretically also had the right to inherit, so he was named a nondescript imperial brother) King Tachar Khan actually wanted to marry a Yangzhou's red line as the chief concubine......"
In Fuzhou City, in the royal tent of King Ming, Chen Dexing heard Yang Aguo's return, but he leaned forward and leaned back with a smile. He never thought that Yang Po'er would have such an opportunity.
"Monk, Mr. Jiang Han, what do you think? Should I marry my mother-in-law to Tachar? ”
Chen Dexing finished laughing, and asked Monk Liu and Zhao Fu in the account. Monk Liu arrived in Liaodong with the advance troops of the Central Army of the Northern Expeditionary Army. The Chinese army of the Northern Expeditionary Army has now been expanded and reorganized, and it is also a military quota of 12,500 people, the army general is Monk Liu, the staff officer is Lu Shihu, who has eaten back grass, and the 300 Lu family soldiers he brought have also been incorporated into the Chinese army. This time, along with Monk Liu, the artillery brigade and the fourth division of the Chinese army came together, with a total of 4,000 people and 36 cannons. In addition, the 7th and 8th Divisions, which belonged to the lower army, were also departing from Jeju Island and would soon arrive in Liaodong.
After these two divisions are in place, Chen Dexing's troops in Liaodong will be greatly enhanced, and the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army under his command will have 5 infantry divisions, 1 cavalry division, and 5 artillery battalions (the artillery brigade of the upper army lacks one battalion), with a total strength of nearly 20,000 troops. In addition, the Eight Banners have also been greatly expanded, with more than 10,000 people, and they have been organized into 8 A teams (each A team has 8 auxiliary teams and 1,250 officers and soldiers). The total strength of the army has reached 30,000, but it is not afraid of the tens of thousands of troops of Tachar.
Monk Liu shook his head: "King, a Yang Po'er is nothing. It's just a pity to let go of Tachar's tens of thousands of troops. ”
Zhao Fu frowned and said: "I'm afraid that Ta Cha'er will go around preaching that he has married the king's mother, which will damage the king's prestige in Liaodong!" ”
That's the crux of the matter! Chen Dexing has now been deified. Although it is not boundless mana, it is not a member of the crowd of living beings. His myth is spreading all over Liaodong and Liaoxi. If at this time, Chen Dexing's "mother" was forcibly married by Ta Cha'er and let Ta Cha'er be Chen Dexing's stepfather, the quality of this immortal would be greatly reduced!
Although the real Guo Fu'er is still safe and sound on Jianghua Island, the barbarians in Liaodong and Liaoxi don't know! Now Tachar will definitely send people everywhere to publicize this matter, and the leaders of the wild Jurchen Tatar tribes in Liaodong who have not yet joined Chen Dexing may be invited by Tachar to watch the ceremony. If Chen Dexing retreated in Jinzhou and Fuzhou and didn't dare to come out, he would watch Ta Cha'er do a good thing.
In the future, the myth of Chen Dexing will not be as effective here in Liaodong as it is now!
Thinking of this, Chen Dexing suddenly snorted and looked at Yang Aguo coldly: "Go and sue Sù Ta Cha'er." I promised to marry my mother! It's already August, and on August 13, we will meet on the banks of the Sand River. Divide Goryeo equally, and then divide Liaodong with the Shahe River and Fuzhou River as the boundary. In the future, the Ulus of Chijin will not be allowed to enter the land of Yanyun. If Tachar seized the throne of the Mongolian Khan, my Huaxia and the Mongolian brothers will be commensurate and will not invade each other! ”
Yang Aguo listened to Chen Dexing's cold tone, and vaguely guessed something, but he didn't dare to ask more, just bowed and retreated.
"The King. I'm afraid this Tachar is not so easy to be fooled! I'm afraid that this old guy will be waiting on the bank of the Sand River! ”
Yang Ah came out, and Monk Liu frowned and reminded.
Chen Dexing just sneered: "The tiger hurts people's minds, and people harm the tiger's heart...... Why did Ta Cha'er want to marry Yang Po'er? It is clearly to force me to go to war and fight with him on the flat ground on both sides of the Sand River! ”
Zhao replied: "I only have 30,000 soldiers. There may be 50,000 Tacha's troops, and if they are put on the table, they may not have a chance of winning! ”
Chen Dexing snorted coldly: "How can there be no chance of winning?" In the past, Möngke Khan's army of 100,000 was defeated by my hands. Tachar, the old thief, only 30,000 or 50,000 people, dared to ask for war. Act recklessly! This land of Liaodong is where he is buried! ”
He stood up abruptly: "Pass me general." Let Land Rover, Gao Da, Wang Wei, and Wang Lufei come to Fuzhou by land and water!
In addition, let the leaders of the Eight Banners come to the king's tent! ”
……
The third day of August. The sun was setting westward, until it set over the distant mountain tops, shrouding the plains on both sides of the Sand River where a battle was likely to break out soon.
The Shahe Plain is not open, it is in the south of the Liaodong Peninsula, the west is the Erlong Mountain, Xiaoshan and other continuous hilly areas, the east is the surging Yellow Sea, and the Goryeo Peninsula across the sea, and the south is the Great Black Mountain blocking the entrance of the Jinzhou Peninsula.
Because the Northern Expeditionary Army had already built a simple fortress defense system on the Great Black Mountain, digging trenches and erecting wooden fences. Deer barricades were arranged to resist horses, and forts were also built. It was not impregnable, but it was a line of defense that Tachar was unwilling to storm with his precious Mongol lives. Therefore, Tachar chose the relatively open Shahe Plain as the battlefield of the decisive battle, and used the forced marriage of "Guo Fu'er" as a means to force Chen Dexing to come out to fight.
After receiving the news that Chen Dexing would come to Shahe on 13 August to "join the alliance," Tacha'er did not dare to take it lightly, and immediately ordered the whole army to deploy defenses on the Shahe Plain!
Tachar prepared to use a strong defense to set up a defensive position first, and after Chen Dexing's vigor was consumed, he counterattacked with iron cavalry and defeated him in one fell swoop.
If you look down from a high place, north of the Shahe River at this time, on the large plain with the Yellow Sea in the back, there are stretches of grass and grass erected, all of which are freshly cut wood. There are also dotted figures, digging trenches and carrying wood in the plains.
Behind these hastily erected fences, you can see the Han army of Hong Fuyuan's troops who were building the breastwork, and they learned the method of building the breastwall from Chen Dexing's Northern Expeditionary Army. Bags filled with rice and grain were stuffed with mud and sand, and they were built one by one, which could block about half of the soldiers' bodies.
Behind this breastwork, there are high platforms made of rammed earth, not too high, or more than two feet high, on which are also made of pouches to form fortifications, behind which are erected stone machines and bed crossbows. Needless to say, this method of arranging fortifications was also wholesaled from Chen Dexing, the Mongol people of this era were quite good at learning and learning military knowledge. When they discovered the deployment method of the Northern Expeditionary Army on Ganghwa Island, they quickly learned to use it for field defense.
Groups of Mongolian cavalry left this big village that was taking shape, galloped through the surrounding grasslands, mountains and forests, approached Fuzhou to the west, and forced to the foot of the Great Black Mountain to the south. They seem to want to keep the entire battlefield firmly in their hands!
At the same time, Chen Dexing's Eight Banners also made a big move!
……
Hundreds of Eight Banner soldiers passed through the mountain road, and the horses that grew up in Liaodong outside the Saiwai were fat and strong at this time, happily spreading their hooves and galloping in the mountains and fields they were most familiar with. And the knights on the horse, all of them were also high-spirited, they wore airtight leather armor that could cover all the vital points of the body, and the leather armor was covered with Huang S's gown. It is the general of the Eight Banners and the Yellow Banner -- the eight banner owners of this "Shanzhai Eight Banners" are all Chen Dexing, but the Zhenghuang Banner is still the head of the Eight Banners. Although the equipment and treatment are the same as those of the other seven banners, they are the same as the yellow flags, nominally the soldiers of the Ming king, so they are the first-class warriors among the eight banners.
Each knight held his head high, and responded loudly to the cheers of his companions, and the bow of his horse was clenched tightly. When they rushed out of the camp and were about to compete with the Mongols' horse rangers, their fighting spirit was extremely high!
The old Tartar Yang Akang and his son Yang Axi rode horses in front of the team's Zhenghuangqi vest, Yang Akang had a slightly dignified look, and Yang Axi's face was full of joy.
Previously, in the Battle of Fuzhou, the father and son of the Yang family all had merit, and Yang Aguo, who had one hand, not only won the credit of Moying Niang, but was also valued by Chen Dexing (the main name was good, and one hand was missing), and now he is the master of the Zhenghuang Banner Branch of the Heavenly Taoism. He was also used by Chen Dexing as a messenger to and from the Tachaer army.
As for the old Tartar Yang Akang, he was also reused-don't look at his age, but the kung fu of the bow horse is by no means under Yang Axi! And the old guy has been rolling in the mountains and forests of Liaodong for more than 30 years, and no one can compare with Cheng Dù who is familiar with the terrain, this is his home! Therefore, Yang Akang was appointed as the deputy chief of the Zhenghuang Flag A team.
And the little Tartar Yang Axi is not only first-class in bow and horse, but also good at using sabers and horse pistols, and his fist and foot skills are also excellent, and it is said that he has killed a bear with his bare hands! Now he is the leader of the right team of the Yellow Flag. This time, with more than 100 horsemen and my father, I came to cut off the heads of the Mongols to save credit!
It is now August 10th, and there are still three days left before Chen Dexing goes to drink Tachaer's "wedding wine", but there is no festive atmosphere in the southern part of the Liaodong Peninsula, but there is a sword and sword shadow!
It's not a battle of large corps, but a squad of dozens of horsemen and hundreds of horsemen! Although the number of participants in each battle is limited, the frequency of the outbreak of battles has reached the point of outrageousness. At this time, both warring parties are unwilling to give up control of the battlefield to the other party. So every day, thousands of cavalry roamed the hills and woods, and fierce battles were staged almost at any time!
As soon as the more than 100 horsemen led by the father and son of the Yang family crossed Erlong Mountain, they encountered a team of dozens of Mongolian exploration horses, and the two sides immediately bit together! First he rode his horse and shot it, then he quickly retreated. Then they quickly gathered into a group, put away their bows and arrows, and drew their scimitars. Then a whistle sounded, and the knights swung their swords and rode their horses, attacking each other!
When the two sides collide, it is flesh and blood! (To be continued......)
