Ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for rewards

"What? Wu Huan, that dog, actually dared to lead his troops to attack me? Li Rusong also led 5,000 soldiers and horses from the dangerous mountains to come? Damn it! Order all the people of the tribe to prepare to retreat and flee to the direction of Yehebu for refuge! ”

Jianzhou Jurchen Wang Gao's base camp, Gule Village:

The Ming Dynasty set up the three local military administrative institutions in the Jianzhou Jurchen settlement in the northeast region, Jianzhou Wei, Jianzhou Left Guard, and Jianzhou Right Guard. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchen Huli Reform Department and the Huduoli Division, which originally lived at the confluence of the Mudanjiang River and the Songhua River, began to migrate to the southeast. In the first year of Yongle (1403), the Ming government placed Jianzhou Wei here, and appointed the head of the department Ahachu (named Li Chengshan by the Ming court) as the commander; The Tumen River basin was moved to the Tumen River basin, and in the ninth year, it was moved to the Suifen River basin, and it was attached to Jianzhou to defend and live in the pasture. The Later Ming government placed the Jianzhou Left Guard in its place, and appointed the head of the department, Mengge Timur, as the commander of the Jianzhou Left Guard. The latter two guards migrated. In the third year of orthodoxy (1438), Jianzhou Wei moved to the Suzi River valley in the upper reaches of the Hunhe River (a tributary of the Liao River) under the leadership of Li Manzhu, the grandson of Aha and the commander of Jianzhou Wei, and lived and pastorized in the old town of present-day Xinbin County. Five years later, Jianzhou Zuowei also moved here. In the seventh year of orthodoxy (1442), the Ming government separated the Jianzhou Right Guard from the Jianzhou Left Guard, and the son of the brother Timur of the committee was in charge of the left guard, and the half-brother of the brother Timur was in charge of the right guard. The three guards of Jianzhou were thus formed. From the orthodox period to the end of the Ming Dynasty, Jianzhou Sanwei basically settled in the Suzi River valley in the upper reaches of the Hunhe River. At first, it was subordinate to the Nuer Gandu Division, but in fact, it was mostly under the command of the Liaodong Metropolitan Envoy Division. Its head is subject to the Ming government's commission, and the promotion of official titles, the replacement of edicts, and the relocation of pastoral areas must be submitted to the Ming government for approval; Its army was subject to the Ming court's conscription; Chiefs at all levels paid tribute to Jingshi (Beijing) every year. Sanwei also exchanged its horses, ginseng, mink, pine nuts and other local products for clothing, grain, iron pots, ploughing cattle, and farm tools from the hinterland. The leaders of the three guards have been inherited from generation to generation. Around the twentieth year of Jiajing (1541), the heroes competed for growth. First, Wang Gao claimed to be the leader of the right guard of Jianzhou, with Gulezhai (now Gulou in Xinbin County, Liaoning) as the center, ruling the three guards, and was attacked by the Ming army.

After several years of careful management, Wang Gao has built Gule Village into a large-scale military fortress, divided into two parts, the people live in the grass outside the city, the troops are stationed in the outer city, and the soldiers, generals, and noble families live in the inner city and are controlled by Wang Gao.

Previously, the Ming army had attacked Gule Village several times, but was repelled by Wang Gao, and then the Mongolian Tumen Khan and Duoyan Dong Fox rose rapidly and became the biggest rivals of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming army began to defend the Jurchens, and Gulezhai had not experienced war for four or five years.

In recent years, the strength of the Ming army in Liaodong has not been as strong as before, and almost every year, a large number of high-ranking officers are killed or dismissed from their posts because of the Mongol invasion, so they simply do not have the time and energy to deal with the Jurchens.

Today, Wang Gao was very surprised to hear that Wu Huan, the general soldier of Liaodong, was attacking him in a big way, and when he heard that Li Rusong would also lead his troops to participate in the battle, this experience turned into a trembling and fear from the bottom of his heart.

The big rout at the end of last year was the biggest shame in his life, but he couldn't afford to take revenge at all in his heart - because of fear, the fear he felt in his bones.

The black cavalry, the ghostly Li Rusong, all this often wakes him up in his dreams, and he is covered in cold sweat. Although he angrily reprimanded those soldiers who were afraid of Li Rusong, in his heart Wang Gao had already decided that he would resolutely not fight Li Rusong!

"Report! The big leader, fifty miles southeast of Gule Village, there was a large group of Ming cavalry, holding the banner of the evil wolf, it was the Liaodong Iron Cavalry led by Li Rusong! Just when Wang Gao was upset, a sentry ran in quickly and reported loudly.

"What? How many enemies are there? Wang Gao was suddenly covered in cold sweat, Li Rusong led the cavalry to kill, even if he wanted to run, it was difficult to run.

"Report to the big leader, the Ming army has about 2,000 cavalry, and there are 3,000 infantry five miles behind, and the armor should be the Chiyan Legion!" At this time, the second wave of sentinels returned, bringing Wang Gao even worse news.

"Ahh Li Rusong, this shaft! If you want to destroy my Jianzhou Jurchen, it's not so easy, Soltu immediately went to order 10,000 iron horsemen, and followed me to kill the Ming army without leaving a piece of armor! Wang Gao was completely enraged, after all, Li Rusong had relied on despicable tactics such as fortified cities and artillery and sneak attacks to win his own battles. Now he is blatantly leading the army to attack, and he wants to fight with the warriors under his command in the field, if he still doesn't dare to fight, where will he put his face?

"What? The king of Yama actually chased us to Gule Village, and the big leader asked us to fight the king of Yama, didn't this let us go to death? It's a pity that there are strange voices among the current Jurchen soldiers, and there is an unforgettable fear of Li Rusong.

"Did you hear that? The king of Yama came over with thousands of people this time, there were 2,000 cavalry alone, and 3,000 soldiers with tiger squat cannons and Hades guns, if we don't run, we will die! The big leader still has to order troops to resist, isn't this a intention to send us to death? ”

"No, we're mortals, mortals. I heard the shaman say: The soldiers under the king of Yama are not human at all, they are all evil ghosts and demon generals who have come out of the underworld, and even if the mortal sword hurts them, they will crawl out of the earth one by one at night and come back to life."

"Brother! I was chosen to fight the king of Yama, you take care of my seventh uncle! ”

"Brother, you can die with peace of mind, your wife is my wife, your son must still be your son, go with peace of mind......

All kinds of voices continued to spread in the Gule Village, all revealing the great fear of the Jurchen soldiers for the dangerous mountain army led by Li Rusong. Every Jurchen soldier who was selected to fight no longer had the bravery and courage of the past, and one by one they were frightened and cowering, busy saying goodbye to their families, and they looked like they were about to die.

"Alas...... Where is this still the descendant of Wanyan Aguda, just like a cowardly scholar in the Ming Dynasty! It took twice as long as usual, and the 10,000-strong Jurchen cavalry was sparsely assembled, and everyone had a look of fear and anger on their faces, as if Wang Gao was deliberately sending them to death, and Wang Gao couldn't help but sigh when he saw all this.

"Warriors! Whoever can bring back five Ming Dynasty barbarian heads today can get a reward of fifty taels of gold! For more than ten heads, for every five more, the chief gave him five horses and a most beautiful girl! At this time, Wang Gao didn't have time to slowly rectify the morale of the army, so he had to rely on heavy rewards to inspire the courage of the soldiers under his command.

Then Wang Gao ordered his guards to take out several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry from his collection, all of which were opened on the spot, and distributed them to the soldiers one by one. After a delay of nearly an hour, the 10,000 cavalry who went out to fight finally raised their fighting spirit and followed Wang Gao out of Gule Village to meet the army led by Li Rusong.

Originally, Wang Gao planned to lead his troops to attack first and occupy a hill southeast of Gule Village, when the power of the Ming army's offensive firearms would be greatly weakened, but his own bows and arrows and javelins could be projected down the hillside, greatly improving the power and accuracy.

It's a pity that there was too much time delayed before, and by the time Wang Gao led the army out of Gule Village, Li Rusong had already ordered the infantry to seize the mountain, and at the same time the cavalry was deployed under the mountain, echoing the mountain from afar.

"The whole army assaulted, and recaptured the mountain while the enemy's foothold was not stable!" Seeing that Li Rusong had seized the opportunity, Wang Gao had no choice but to attack hard.

"Warriors, we are now surrounded by Li Rusong, the king of Yama! If we can't beat him, we will all die, in order to survive! Charge with me! Wang Gao clamored loudly, and all the Jurchen soldiers clenched their weapons and stared closely at the Ming army in the distance.

At this time, the Jurchens had no way to retreat, there were tens of thousands of Jurchen old and weak women and children and 5,000 soldiers in Gule Village, if they retreated and were chased and killed by the Ming cavalry, the entire tribe could not escape the catastrophe, only by defeating the Ming cavalry here, there was a glimmer of life.

At this time, even if they were afraid, the Jurchen soldiers had no choice but to go all out, trying to suppress the fear in their hearts, holding the reins of their horses in one hand and their weapons in the other, ready to charge.

"Kill!" Seeing that the Ming army had not yet completed the formation, and seemed to be busy coordinating the formation, Wang Gao decisively ordered an attack, and 10,000 iron horsemen screamed wildly and whipped their horses and pounced on the Ming army.

Wang Gao's plan was to take advantage of the distance of the Ming army on the mountain and the lack of crosshairs for the tiger squat artillery to rush in front of the Ming cavalry. As long as the cavalry of the Ming army can be defeated, the infantry on the mountain can only hold on and wait for reinforcements, and they can retreat with the tribesmen with peace of mind.

"Scatter!"

"Cast!" Seeing that the Jurchen cavalry was about to rush over, two orders suddenly came from the Ming army, and the Ming soldiers who were still in chaos just now immediately dispersed, discharging a long snake formation, no one took out a "grenade" from his arms, ignited the fuse, and used a large slingshot to throw at the approaching Jurchen cavalry!

"Boom!"

"Ahh

"Help!" ……

Accompanied by the thunderous explosion of "grenades", there were the screams of countless Jurchen cavalrymen who were blown up and bruised, and hundreds of people were directly blown to pieces by the "grenades" thrown in their faces without even "humming". The vanguard of the Jurchen cavalry was almost completely annihilated in this attack, and the momentum of the entire army's charge was completely interrupted.

"Boom! Rumble! Just when the Jurchens were busy adjusting their formation and preparing to meet the charge of the Ming cavalry, the Ming artillery on the mountain opened fire, and a large amount of medicine of about five coins poured down overwhelmingly, covering almost the entire Jurchen army.

The poor Jurchen cavalry, because they had just been attacked together, were met with a head-on blow as soon as they began to evacuate, and countless people died before they could figure out what was going on, and the rest were also in disarray, trying their best to harness the frightened horses in circles and bewildered.

"I'm an iron rider in Liaodong!"

"Invincible!"

At this time, accompanied by a majestic roar, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry was like an angry black dragon, and pounced on the panicked Jurchen cavalry with its mouth wide open.

As soon as the two sides fought, the Jurchen cavalry was about to collapse at the touch of a button, and the Jurchen cavalry, which was once unparalleled in martial arts and was known for its bow horses and bravery, all became cowards, desperately slapping their horses and turning their heads and running. Now they are a group of lost and destitute lost dogs, and they only hope to leave this terrible battlefield as soon as possible, away from this group of demonic and terrifying enemies!

"Ahh Heaven will die for me! Burst! Looking at the situation in front of him where the whole army was defeated and poured for thousands of miles, Wang Gaoqi's face turned red, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out from his back, and he was about to fall off the horse when he staggered!
