The two cavalry met head-on, and it was impossible to prepare at all, that is, to charge directly.

The cavalry of the Liao army already clearly felt the difference of this Ming cavalry, because they were too "wasteful".

Twenty feet away, grenades were already being thrown.

In fact, this throwing method is the experience of the soldiers of the Ming army, the two armies hedge, if the throwing distance is strictly followed, then when the grenade flies in the air to reach the target, the target has already approached within ten zhang, and at this time the grenade explosion often blows up the enemy's middle troops, the damage to the forward is not great, or even not.

Only when the grenade is thrown outside the throwing distance, exactly when the grenade falls, is exactly when the enemy advance arrives.

After three rounds of throwing, the distance between the two armies was shortened to ten zhang, and at this time, the Ming cavalry array suddenly split into two from the middle, interspersed to the left and right.

The scimitar that the Liao cavalry had already raised high lost its target in the blink of an eye, and according to the inertia of the war horse, the Liao cavalry could only flick the horse's head lightly and follow the Ming cavalry.

But the Liao army did not see that something black fell from under the buttocks of the horses in the last row of the Ming cavalry.

In fact, the soldiers of the Liao army could not react to this even if they saw it.

The speed of the war horse charge was so fast that as long as a soldier in the front of the vanguard pulled the reins, at least a dozen war horses either collided or trampled on him, pressing on his body.

And so, the most tragic and deadly thing happened.

The dense hooves of the war horses stepped on the mines without any mistakes, and the explosion caused by this not only disrupted the array of Liao cavalry, but also destroyed the fighting spirit of the Liao army.

The Ming cavalry had already killed at least twenty percent of the Liao cavalry with firearms without even making contact with the Liao army.

This kind of blow comes in terms of morale. Too lethal.

There is no shortage of warriors in the Liao army, and it can even be said that the Liao soldiers are more bloodthirsty than the Han people.

But you can't kill the enemy, you can't even touch the enemy. Twenty percent of the troops were damaged, which undoubtedly made this Liao army lose its will to fight.

The Ming cavalry rode wildly, because the soldiers knew that the power of this mine was not comparable to that of a grenade.

Flying shrapnel doesn't know who the enemy is and who is your own.

By the time the series of explosions had died down, the Ming cavalry had already rushed out three miles away.

At this time, he turned around, but he could no longer catch up with the fleeing Liao cavalry.

Zhu Kuangye cursed as he returned to the battlefield.

He loudly ordered his soldiers to clean up the battlefield and sent scouts in three directions: north, west, and south.

Just finished cleaning the battlefield. The scouts to the west came back to report, and two cavalry teams approached quickly, one in front of the other.

Jiang Yanzhao and Zhu Guichao on the side of Zhu Kuangye immediately reacted that this was Jiang Yansi's Padangdu.

Jiang Yanzhao and Zhu Guichao suggested that Zhu Kuangye go west to meet Jiang Yansi.

Zhu Kuangye asked the scout, how far the two cavalry were from here.

The scout replied. About five miles.

Zhu Kuangye thought for a moment and ordered the whole army to be divided into two and gallop out of the north and south for three miles.

Jiang Yanzhao and Zhu Guichao understood Zhu Kuangye's intentions after thinking about it.

When the Ming army galloped out of the north and south for three miles, Jiang Yansi and his subordinates roared past.

And just after Jiang Yansi and his troops rushed through. Zhu Kuangye ordered the Ming cavalry to quickly close in the middle.

collided with the chasing Liao army.

5,000 barricades combined to attack less than 500 Liao scouts. The results can be imagined.

The Liao army was quickly annihilated, and Jiang Yansi, who had fled eastward, discovered what had happened behind him and ordered his men to turn back.

Jiang Yansi's four brothers have all escaped so far, hugging each other and rejoicing.

But the task of asking Yang Ye for help was still not completed.

Jiang Yansi escaped death, but at this time he began to worry about the safety of the main general Ding Sijin and the Fourth Army.

"Commander Zhu, can you send reinforcements to the north?" When Jiang Yansi learned from Jiang Yanzhao and Zhu Guichao that Zhu Kuangye was under the command of Yanyun Chen Yanzheng, he asked Zhu Kuangye for help.

"Of course, it's a matter of course." Zhu Kuangye is naturally in line with his heart. It was not easy to come out after a hard trip, and now there is a request for help from the Fourth Army. He just had an excuse to stay.

Even if Chen Du commanded the envoy here, he must be eager to go north. Zhu Kuangye said secretly in his heart.

Hearing that Zhu Kuangye promised to go north for reinforcements, Jiang Yansi immediately ordered Zhu Guichao to send a message to Yang Ye, and he led his troops to lead Zhu Kuangye's troops north to reinforce the Fourth Army.

It's a pity that Zhu Guichao didn't agree to pass the message by himself.

Jiang Yansi had no choice but to order his soldiers to send a message to Yang Ye for help.

The Jiang brothers and the Zhu brothers have an inextricable relationship, Jiang Yansi married Zhu Guichao's sister Zhu Xiaoqin, and Zhu Guichao also married Jiang Yansi's sister Jiang Yuping.

Jiang Yansi originally wanted Zhu Guichao to get out of danger, so as not to make his sister a widow and wife, but Zhu Guichao was not afraid that Jiang Yansi would die in a foreign land.

These people really don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, the 30,000 people of the Fourth Army are surrounded by 60,000 Liao troops, and only more than 5,000 of them want to go north to relieve the siege of the Fourth Army?

really responded to two words, looking for death.

Zhu Kuangye was born in Shi Jin, has been following Chen Yanzheng, from the weak crown to not confused, naturally understand that the enemy is strong and I am weak, but he is really bored in Yanyun, two years, seeing the Liao army fighting grass valley from Gubei, Dushi Pass passing, but he obeyed the order not to fight without authorization.

The Han people trapped in Liao were ravaged by the Khitans, and they cried and begged the Ming army to send troops to help, which broke Zhu Kuangye's heart.

How many times he asked Chen Yanzheng to fight, he was rejected, and now that he has this rare opportunity, Zhu Kuangye naturally refuses to let it go easily.

And just now the bloodless defeat of 5,000 Liao cavalry and the killing of more than 1,000 people made Zhu Kuangye overestimate the combat power of the Ming army under his command, and he forgot that the north is the world of nomadic cavalry.

The 5,300 Ming army has since embarked on the road to the north to rescue.

After a day's rapid march, the Ming army was already approaching Shengzhou.

Zhu Kuangye slowed down the army and sent scouts around.

After a short rest, the scouts came with the news that twenty miles to the north, there was a Liao army guarding it, and the number was not less than 10,000.

Zhu Kuangye and others naturally guessed that this must be the Liao army encircling the Fourth Army.

Zhu Kuangye consulted with Jiang Yansi and asked, "Captain Jiang, are you sure that the Fourth Army is still resisting now?" “

Jiang Yansi replied: "Returning to the commander of Zhu, when the humble post went south yesterday on the order of General Ding to ask for help, although the Fourth Army suffered some casualties, it did not lose its resistance, and I believe that General Ding will definitely be able to hold on." “

Zhu Kuangye said: "If we have more than 5,000 troops, I am afraid it will be inappropriate to fight hard with the superior Liao army, but if we take advantage of its unpreparedness for a surprise attack, there is still hope to open up the connection with the Fourth Army, so it is better to take a risk." “

When Jiang Yansi heard this, he naturally fell into the trap and hurriedly thanked Zhu Kuangye: "General Daiding, a lowly general, thanks Commander Zhu for his rescue. (To be continued......)
