Chinese Army. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Great Tent of the King of Chu.

A letter was passed to Liu Chengfeng, and Liu Chengfeng opened the letter, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Want to make peace? Then Liu Chengfeng accompanied him, and immediately sent a few officials to the other side of the river to talk slowly, but the peace negotiation was just a delaying tactic, Liu Chengfeng knew that if he didn't beat these people, he didn't beat these people until he didn't even recognize them, everything was empty talk.

Crumpling the letter, Liu Chengfeng issued an order, the Mongolian army was only afraid of attacking, so get ready.

Liu Chengfeng's prediction was very accurate, and in the afternoon, a Mongolian iron cavalry crossed the river and launched a surprise attack on the flank of the new army from the upstream.

However, they were not very lucky, first encountered a group of ambush attack, after the attack, the ambush immediately retreated into the forest, in the mountains and forests, the advantage of the cavalry could not be unfolded, the Mongols were not fools, instead of chasing and killing this small group of harassing troops, it was better to take the flank of the Ming army in the open area, they ignored it and continued to move forward.

A battle started on the flank, the Ming army fired 10,000 cannons, and then countless new troops relied on trenches, or hid behind the barrier composed of carriages and horses to shoot, the Mongolian army suffered huge losses, but there were also small groups of iron cavalry rushed into the formation of the new army, after all, most of the officers and soldiers of the new army were engaged for the first time, which immediately caused a small-scale chaos, but fortunately, the command of the new army made Qian Fang personally lead the team to sit in the town, and the situation was eased.

In this battle, the Mongolian army suffered more than 6,000 casualties, and the new army suffered 3,000 casualties.

Very beautiful numbers, but the new army is completely prepared, but it is like this, which still makes Liu Chengfeng dissatisfied, and the strength of the Mongols is also reflected, they can launch the most fierce offensive without hesitation, but once they find that something is not right, they do not hesitate to turn their horses away, and they can't catch up at all.

Liu Chengfeng received the battle report, but did not say anything more, it was just a small battle, insignificant compared to the whole battle, but this battle greatly improved the new army's understanding of the Mongolian iron cavalry.

"Pass the order, the first and second columns are ready tonight, ready to attack the camp."

Liu Chengfeng gave the order, he expected, after this battle a favorable fighter.

The only way to deal with the Mongols was to attack them at night and disrupt their deployment. At this point, Liu Chengfeng is still very confident, there are too many people with night blindness in these years, and the biggest advantage of the new army is that the quality of the soldiers and horses recruited is excellent, coupled with the good treatment in peacetime, all night battles are also considered a strength for them.

The battle report reached Li Ruofan's hand at the same time, Li Ruofan felt surprised after reading the battle report, the combat power of the new army was somewhat unexpected by her, but she still smiled, and then issued an order, tonight, be careful, the Ming army will inevitably come to sneak attack.

She knows Liu Chengfeng too well, originally it was a fierce battle, and it stands to reason that it is impossible for the enemy to sneak attack, but Liu Chengfeng has always been unpredictable, the more others can't think of it, the more he will do it. Li Ruofan expected that the Ming army would definitely make a move tonight.

Night...... Li Ruofan's big tent is brightly lit, she sits cross-legged on the couch, drinking tea, although she has been in the desert for a long time, Li Ruofan still likes to drink tea, and the experience of living in Beijing seems to have imprinted her, making her life and surname always different from others.

Outside her tent, countless Mongolian troops were fully armed and ready, everyone was waiting with bated breath, nearly 100,000 men and horses, without making a sound.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and ate mare's milk wine, he was different from Li Ruofan, Li Ruofan was a Mongolian who loved to drink tea, but he was happy to be able to drink mare's milk wine, as if this horse ** entered his mouth, he was more like an upright man.

"I don't think Master Liu will come, I'm afraid you're going to miscalculate."

Li Ruofan smiled and said, "He will definitely come, he is your master, don't you know his surname?" ”

Zhu Houzhao protested: "I'm not his concubine, do I know everything he does?" ”

Li Ruofan's face fell, and he said coldly: "If you talk nonsense again, I cut off your tongue." ”

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be speechless, he seemed to forget that he was a prisoner now, so he had to sneer: "I didn't say you. ”

Li Ruofan was silent for a moment and said: "Defeat the Ming army tonight, and I can bring people into Beijing tomorrow, what is the emperor's plan?" ”

"Plan to ......" Speaking of plans, Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment, he has never been a person with plans, and he has never planned anything in his life, everything is ridiculous to play with his own heart, but this time he also knows that he made too big a mistake, he slipped out of the Beijing Division, on the premise that he was confident that he could defeat the Mongols, but the Mongols were not defeated by him, and as a result, there was a battle similar to the civil fort, and Zhu Houzhao's old face was lost.

It's just that Zhu Houzhao is the kind of person who likes to run away when he encounters trouble, this kind of humiliating thing makes him dare not think about it at all, and he plans to continue to escape.

So he didn't speak.

Li Ruofan looked at him curiously: "Why don't you speak?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said shamelessly: "I'm afraid you cut my tongue." ”

Li Ruofan couldn't help laughing, glanced at Zhu Houzhao deeply, and said, "You are really not suitable to be the Son of Heaven, if I were you, I would rather be a rich man." ”

She didn't say anything more, and continued to wait with bated breath.

Tonight, Liu Chengfeng will definitely come, and she will personally catch her and settle an account.

Zhu Houzhao was also waiting anxiously in his heart, and thought silently: "Master Liu, don't come, there is a bad woman waiting for you here, you are here, I and you are really difficult brothers." ”

After the third watch, it was still calm.

Li Ruofan was very confident, and when a Mongolian general came in, he stroked his chest and saluted: "Great Khan, there is no movement on the other side, and now the soldiers are tired and tired, do you want them to rest?" ”

Li Ruofan said: "Strengthen the vigilance again, they are coming." ”

It was just dawn.

Zhu Houzhao in the tent couldn't stand it anymore, and his eyelids began to fight.

Li Ruofan is still full of confidence.

At this time, a cannon rang out, alarming all the people in the tent.

Li Ruofan got up, put on a piece of armor, and then took the sword out of the tent, outside the tent, the military horses surged, and the Mongolian troops who had been in ambush all night ran to the horse shed, Li Ruofan appeared with a team of Golden Horde guards, which immediately boosted the morale of these tired Mongolian soldiers.

"Report, there has been a large number of Ming troops on the other side of the river."

"Wait!" Li Ruofan gave the order.

On the other side of the river, the Ming army had prepared many boats, which seemed to be intending to cross the river.

And a large number of Mongolian troops also began to assemble on the riverside, ready for battle.

At this moment, suddenly the cannon roared, 10,000 cannons fired in unison, and more than 1,300 artillery pieces of the new army fired at once, and countless shells directly crossed the not too spacious river and smashed fiercely on the opposite bank.

The Mongol army was suddenly frightened, countless people were flying with flesh and blood, the cannon fire showed no sign of stopping, and after one round, a large number of Mongol troops gathered on the banks of the river suffered heavy losses and had to be defeated.

This time, the Mongolian army suffered a lot of casualties, and the fright was even greater, Li Ruofan saw this, and immediately ordered people to retreat.

Even so, the artillery still did not stop, but carried out long-range fire at elevation angles, this kind of shooting method has a very low hit rate, but the range is long, and it can even reach the Mongolian army camp on the opposite bank.

Thereupon...... The Mongols began to mourn.

They hadn't slept all night, but now that the cannon was rumbling, they couldn't sleep even if they wanted to, and a cannonball could fall from the sky at any time, and no one could stand it.

Li Ruofan suddenly realized that he had been fooled.

This made Zhu Houzhao happy for a long time, he was lucky, because anyway, he still took a nap last night, compared to those Mongolians who stayed up all night with their eyes open, looking at this, don't think about sleeping today, the Ming army on the other side doesn't plan to let people sleep at all.

Li Ruofan was also a little annoyed, knowing that he had been fooled, but he was helpless, looking at the tired soldiers left and right, coupled with the small-scale panic caused by shells smashing into the camp from time to time, Li Ruofan was tired and angry, he gritted his silver teeth and looked Zhu Houzhao up and down, which made Zhu Houzhao feel a little hairy in his heart, Zhu Houzhao felt that this woman might tie herself to the other side of the river to be in danger of shielding, so he hurriedly snorted, stretched his waist and said: "I'm so tired, I'm so tired, I'm going to sleep." Cannonballs don't have long eyes, Khan should be careful. ”

The sound of artillery did not stop until the evening, and the Mongolian army was exhausted to the extreme, and anyone who did not rest for more than twelve hours would probably not have too much energy, not to mention that all the Mongolian troops may be far from not sleeping for more than twelve hours, far more than twelve hours, and no one can stand it.

However, Li Ruofan still gave an order with dark circles under his eyes, and he couldn't sleep tonight.

This is also a helpless thing, all kinds of signs show that tonight, the Ming army will definitely surprise attack, the reason is very simple, the current Mongolian army has been exhausted to the extreme, this time surprise attack, twice the result with half the effort.

Sleep is small, surname is big, once everyone sleeps, and the Ming army raids, these extremely tired warriors are afraid that they will be ghosts.

It must be guarded against!

This night was very thrilling.

In fact, although many Mongols were asked not to return their accounts, there were a lot of deserters, but the Ming army on the other side obviously did not let them desert, and every once in a while, there was an earth-shattering shouting sound from the other side, which was earth-shattering, mixed with a few cannon shots, which suddenly made the Mongols nervous.

But it's very strange that the other side still hasn't launched a surprise attack, there are quite a few feints, and they are very frequent, and this time, the attitude of the other side has become very clear, and they are clearly just teasing you.

At this time, the Mongolian army really wanted to cry without tears.
