It was another side-fire, and the auxiliaries did not fall in love with the battle after a volley, but turned on the spot, changed from a horizontal column to a column, and accelerated forward diagonally. The Mongol cavalry, on the other hand, lost its speed advantage due to side-firing fire and pikemen, and had no choice but to leave the battlefield from both sides.

The auxiliaries quickly advanced just in time to dodge the necessary passage of the Mongol cavalry, but they did not stop, but moved quickly in two columns towards the two flanks of the Mongol army. Due to the snowstorm, most of the horses in Mongolia died of starvation, so although there were nearly 20,000 people, the real cavalry was less than 5,000, and the rest of the main force was dismounted cavalry running on two legs.

The Mongolian Tartars without their horses were like castrated bulls, losing their self-confidence and fighting spirit, and they were stunned by the smooth performance of the three thousand auxiliary soldiers, and this strange way of playing was the first time they had seen it. They had fought against the Three Guards several times in the past, but their phalanx was all in a slow formation, and they didn't want to catch half of them unless their own horses wanted to rush up and fight them.

But this time the Ming army was obviously different, the two Ming infantry that suddenly rushed out were horizontal and vertical, the speed of action did not slow down at all, and the firepower was not weak at all, and the Mongols regarded these two auxiliary columns as the killer weapon of the Ming army.

In fact, this auxiliary army was deliberately trained by Zhang Shi when he was in Taiyuan City, and the training intensity was no worse than that of the soldiers in the grenadier battalion, but he didn't expect that the test effect of the first time he experienced the battlefield would be surprisingly good.

The front-line soldiers were severely damaged in the third assault of the Mongol cavalry, but Zhang Shi did not care about his distress, but immediately ordered all the soldiers who could still participate in the battle to immediately advance in formation.

After Mi Yan said goodbye to Lu Jiu, he went to the third stop of the trip, Zhangjiakou Fort, where there was also a border army, although it was a team of only 5,000 people, but it was able to seal the gap in the side wall outside Zhangjiakou, and this place was the closest side wall breach to Xuanfu City.

The general's plan was to completely wipe out all the Mongol Tatars who had entered the army, so if he wanted to finish the battle, the plan might have to be changed. Due to the chaos in Xuanfu City, Zhang Shi, who was supposed to block the breach in the side wall, was the main force to fight the Mongolian army, and the real reinforcement was still on the way at this moment, and I don't know if Brother Zi'an, who went south to meet the artillery battalion, could meet it together.

When Mi Yan and his entourage arrived at Zhangjiakou, they saw that the newly repaired fort wall was already brightly lit, and the soldiers on duty shook from time to time on it, and it was obvious that the Ming army in the fort had also discovered the Mongolian army that had broken into the country.

The horse team came from the south to the north and did not stop until the city was down, and the people in the city asked nervously.

"Who's under the city?"

"Mi Yan, the capital of Xuanfu, there is an urgent military order, please notify your commander as soon as possible!"

Mi Yan was running long distances in civilian clothes at this time, followed by neatly armored soldiers, typical civilian attire and pomp, and the people in the city did not doubt the authenticity of the other party's identity at all, but asked him to wait.

"Brother in the city, why don't you open the city and let my family into the castle?"

Zhao Baisheng, who spoke, was a little dissatisfied when he saw that the soldiers in the city had no intention of letting them into the fort.

"The lord of the city forgives the atonement, it's not that the villain doesn't open his eyes, it is indeed where the military order is, the city gate must not be opened before sunrise after sunset, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!"

The soldier was also good-tempered, and his eyes rolled and said: "It's better to be like this, the villain said to pay attention to the old man and see if it's okay." The villain ordered someone to bring the old man up......"

It seems that this is the only way, and in the end, only Mi Yan and Zhao Baisheng were brought up personally. When the commander of the city heard that someone from Xuanfu was coming, he had already greeted him, after all, the Mongolian army had crossed the border, and he was terrified to see it, and if he wanted to know the latest situation brought by Xuanfu, he had to see him.

Who knew that when he saw this capital, the commander was stunned, he knew several things in the Xuanfu, how could he have a new face today? At such a sensitive moment, he couldn't help but be suspicious, even if this person was new, there was no reason for the Xuanfu to send someone at this critical moment of wartime communication.

But out of prudence, the commander exercised great restraint and remained unmoved.

"Everything came overnight, and it was far away!"

Mi Yan didn't know that she was already suspected, but she was anxious, and she went straight to the topic with a greeting.

"There is a change in the war, and the director Li Gong ordered Mi Yan to inform ......"

Before he finished speaking, the commander pulled Mi Yan back.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go back to the house first, let's talk as we go!"

How could Mi Yan go back to the house with him, and said bluntly: "It's going to be on fire, the commander, the director Li Gong ordered you to lead the guards to block the breach in the wall outside the mouth." ”

The commander sneered: "Didn't the director say that the Xuanfu would be successful if he had his Chinese army?" Thousands of me eat dry rice......"

Mi Yan was stunned when he heard this, and immediately understood that this guy had a conflict with Li Fengxiang, and he was probably humiliated by him in public, so he turned over the old accounts at this moment. Things are often like this, and the more urgent the more chaotic it becomes, and the commander refuses to send troops at all, and even immediately says that he wants to go back to sleep. He said to the soldiers beside him: "A few of you send the adults out of the city, they are busy with military affairs and have no time to spend the night in our fort!" ”

Mi Yan immediately became anxious, "You ignore the director's military order?" He pretended to be a whim, thinking that it would be much more useful to urge him to plug the gap in the side wall in the name of Shangfeng than to be a member of the Rausch Field Service Team. Which Cheng thought that it backfired, and Li Fengxiang didn't even have to talk about it!

But he was also extremely angry at the fact that the commander made no distinction between public and private, and vented his personal revenge, and the death of the court seemed to have nothing to do with him.

"Humph! An incompetent eunuch, where does he come from? Everything is good, don't send it! The commander replied coldly.

Mi Yan was even more anxious, he knew that with Zhang Shi and Lu Jiu's 6,000 people, no matter what, they would not be able to stop the Mongols from going out of the side wall, seeing that the hope full of hope was in vain, he was so enthusiastic that he was angry, and he shouted with a Yanling knife hanging from Zhao Baisheng's waist.

"The director has an order, and those who disobey the order will be killed!"

"What......?"

The commander didn't hear what Mi Yan said, and just as he turned around and wanted to ask, he spit out a word halfway, and he felt a chill around his neck, and he didn't know anything. In an instant, the commander was in a different place, and blood spurted out of the wound like a pillar, splashing Mi Yan's body all over his face.

Mi Yan's voice was violent, and his blood-covered face had been deformed, and it was terrifying under the flickering light of the torches. The commander's own soldiers have been frightened stupidly, this Xuanfu is simply a devil, he kills people without a word, and their commander was still alive a moment ago, but at this moment he has become a dead corpse with a different head. Where is this a civil official, it's clearly an evil ghost!

Mi Yan's eyes glared at the pro-soldier, "What do you see?" Why don't you go and gather the generals of the battalions? ”

The soldiers shuddered with fright, and saw that the evil spirit had spared him, and he had gone away as if he had been pardoned.

In a few moments, the generals gathered in the west gate of Zhangjiakou Fort, and far away, they could see the body hanging upside down, and the blood-stained head on the pole. The generals didn't dare to make a sound, for fear that such an unlucky thing would happen to them.

Mi Yan's face was as cold as frost, he pointed to the corpse, and said sharply: "You must have seen the end of disobedience and disrespect!" From now on, the soldiers in the city are under my personal command, the Mongolian army has entered the army, and the director Li Gong has a clever plan to annihilate the enemy, and our task is to hold the gap in the outer wall of the fort! ”

The army general stared wide-eyed, who dared to say nothing, and even the commander said that he would kill him, and these small roles of them were naturally not a problem, whether they expressed their stance one after another, and were willing to obey Mi Yan's command, and some people further assured that they would definitely assist the capital to successfully complete the task.

Looking at these generals who had no will to fight, a feeling of powerlessness rose in Mi Yan's chest, can these people hold the side wall?

Except for some of the soldiers guarding the fort, Mi Yan led a total of 5,000 guards to wait for the arrival of the Mongols at the gap in the side wall, from the dark night until the east was white, and the dawn gradually rose. A slightly chilly wind blew, and Mi Yan suddenly shivered. It's a capital crime to kill the imperial court commander without permission, how can you be so impulsive? If the Mongol army doesn't pass here, there will be no chance to redeem their merits!

In his subconscious, it seemed as if Zhang Shi and Lu Jiu would definitely defeat that Mongol army, and he never thought of the opposite ending!

Mi Yan regretted her impulsiveness a little, and even wondered if she was taking it for granted. But before the thought could be landed, he felt that the earth suddenly trembled slightly, and this tremor became more and more obvious, followed by the neighing of the horse, and he knew that his adventure had finally made the right bet like a gambler.

The Mongols came, and they were going to return to Saibei through the gap in the border wall here. When the other party got closer and closer, Mi Yan found that this was actually a remnant army, almost everyone was wounded, and everyone had blood on their bodies. One can imagine what kind of war they went through to survive.

The Mongols ran closer, and Mi Yan was even more surprised to find that they were not retreating at all, but fleeing for their lives!

As the old saying goes, the poor don't chase after it, and Mi Yan is now doing the opposite, he wants to block this poor team.

"The Tartars are coming, the time has come to make meritorious contributions, whoever kills one Tartar will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, and whoever kills two Tartars will be rewarded with twenty taels of silver, and so on, and those who want to get rich will go with me to kill the enemy......"

Unexpectedly, someone asked, "What do adults say?" ”

Mi Yan originally wanted to boost morale, loyalty to the monarch and serving the country or something definitely didn't work, or the money was good, and it really hooked the desires of these people.

"It's hard to chase after a word, and I, Li Gong, the director of Mi Yan's plenipotentiary representation, promise you!"

The soldiers agreed with a bang!
