Chapter 559: The Huailing Army Arrives
"Woo woo~~" Wei Feng also blew the horn here, and the warriors also fought and retreated, and quickly separated from the enemy.
The Yao Xun and Tan Dao Ji tribes followed into the distance, while the Ming army retreated to the river.
Miss Chen and the hundred dominatrixes did not participate in the war, and when they saw Wei Feng coming back, they were all discolored!
It's no wonder that they are nervous, Wei Feng is covered in blood, his armor and cheeks are dyed red, and the blood beads on the steel gun are dripping down!
Miss Chen hurriedly ran over and said urgently, "Wang, are you injured?" And he stretched out his hand to help Wei Feng dismount.
Wei Feng flashed to the side like a plague god, and laughed: "How can I be injured with my skills?" It's all the blood of the enemy, haha~~ It's really fun to kill today! Miss Chen, don't touch me, hurry up with the sisters to bandage the wounded soldiers. ”
"Oh~~" Miss Chen put her mind at ease, nodded her head, beckoned to the dominatrix, picked up the medicine box and rushed into the formation.
Wei Feng looked upstream, the fleet was getting closer and closer, so he waved his hand: "If you are not injured, go down to the river with Lao Tzu to wash the blood on your body, don't be afraid of the cold!" As he spoke, he removed the armor by dividing it by two, and a fierce man took the lead in plunging into the river!
The guards and a considerable number of soldiers in the Weifeng army have been trained with Weifeng in winter, and they have withstood the test of the sea of ice in such a strict environment on the peninsula, so why be afraid of a small water on the Huaibei Plain?
All of a sudden, the plopping sound was loud, and the soldiers took off their armor and jumped into the water, and some soldiers who had not been trained in winter were infected by the atmosphere and also turned their hearts sideways. Following into the water, the water surface was covered with black pressed human heads, of course, the necessary vigilance was still necessary.
Miss Chen and other women were secretly crying in their hearts, with their backs to the riverbank, and they didn't even dare to turn their heads back!
The soldiers swam in the icy river, and the leaders of Yao Xun and Tan Daoji retreated to a distance of more than ten miles before gradually stopping.
"Humph!" Bald Wenzhi glanced at Tan Daoji with slanted eyes, and snorted coldly: "Up to now, General Tan is still playing wishful thinking, if he goes all out early." Why? Maybe before the arrival of the Ming navy. The Ming army has long been defeated! ”
Tan Daoji's face sank, and he said unhappily: "The cavalry of the Ming army is not inferior to you and other five-party coalition forces in terms of combat effectiveness, especially the one led by the Ming prince is better, how can it be easily defeated?" Can't break the Ming army. How can you shift all the blame to the general?
Soldiers. The major affairs of the country. You have to plan again and again to fight, and you're new to it. did not feel the situation of the Qing army, regardless of the fatigue of the soldiers, and wanted to win in one fell swoop with just a sharp spirit, how could there be such a good thing in the world? If King Ming was so vulnerable, how could he have come to this day? ”
Tan Daoji's reflex was strong, and Yao Wei was also secretly annoyed, but he forcibly changed his face, waved his hand and said: "Okay, you all say a few words, we do despise the Ming army, but after this battle, we can be regarded as finding out the bottom of the Ming army, next time beware of it, General Tan, I don't know what your plans are for the future?" ”
Tan Daoji groaned: "The top priority is to meet the Huailing army, as long as the river is crossed, it is up to me whether to stay or go, I hope that the Huailing army can conceal its whereabouts, and hurriedly let the Ming army and navy detect it, we here are always on guard on the one hand, and on the other hand, we must send scouts to investigate." ”
Yao Xun nodded noncommittally: "General Tan is right, come, let's count the number of people first, and then we all rest." ”
The armies dismounted one after another, and some people simply lay down on the snow and galloped for dozens of miles, followed by high-intensity battles, that is, Hu Cai was gritting his teeth and holding on.
And the soldiers of the Ming army did not stay in the river for too long, washed off the blood stains on their bodies, and went ashore respectively, when Julia's fleet arrived, they were also counting the casualties of this battle, an hour later, the statistical results came out, the Ming army was seriously injured and killed more than 4,000 people, heavy losses, Yao Huan and the Beifu army corpses have nearly 8,000 bodies, the difference is so huge, the key is that the bamboo armor inlaid in the chest and abdomen of the Ming army played a great role, and the Xuanjia Heavenly Army stifled the momentum of Hu Qi at the beginning, otherwise, he rushed over, the consequences are unimaginable!
It's just that the loss of more than 4,000 people is still quite uncomfortable, and an atmosphere of sadness gradually spreads.
Wei Feng swept his eyes coldly and shouted: "When you go out to fight, who can guarantee that you will not die?" All to the spirit of the lonely fight, in any case, our cavalry has withstood the test, in the world, is not inferior to anyone, after this battle, defeated Yao Huan's arrogance, in the future against us, the heart must be cowardly on the first three points, it can be said that this battle, is our army since the formation of the famous battle, my Ming iron cavalry prestige will spread far and wide from now on!
Okay, all of you work hard, bury the fallen soldiers, bury them on the river embankment, and erect the monument, this is their battlefield, and it will always be admired by future generations! ”
"Yes!" The generals agreed with a bang and led the soldiers to get busy!
Some went to the nearby grove to cut down wood to make coffins and temporary wooden monuments, and some wielded shovels to dig graves along the river embankment, and for a while, the river was busy, but the bodies of Hu Qi and the Beifu army were thrown into the river, and they would be slowly washed into the Huaishui by the water, and finally enter the sea and die in the belly of the fish.
Julia stayed by Wei Feng's side and shook her head: "Envoy, Julia is late, if she had come earlier, she wouldn't have killed so many soldiers." ”
Liu Xingnan, who had to follow, also shook his head and said: "Sister Julia, this is none of your business, even the general didn't expect Yao Huan to be so mad that he would fight as soon as he came, you are not an immortal, how can you be a prophet?" ”
Wei Feng smiled slightly: "Although the cavalry is elite and needs to be sharpened, it is not a real sword and a real gun, just how to gallop in the grassland in the future with a bow and crossbow, you came at the right time, the soldiers have not only withstood the test of unexpected situations, but also will not suffer too many casualties, next, I only need to keep an eye on the Huailing army, I can drag the Beifu army and even Yao Huan here, and a big victory can be expected sooner or later!" ”
"Hmm!" Julia nodded, she knew that Wei Feng was comforting herself, and she couldn't help but feel a hint of happiness welling up in her heart.
"King, the Huailing army on the opposite side has appeared, ten miles downstream!" At this moment, the ship's lookout post suddenly shouted loudly.
"Oh?" Wei Feng immediately beckoned: "Let's go, get on the boat and have a look!" ”
Wei Feng led everyone to the boat, and sure enough, there was an army of more than 30,000 people in front of the side who was rushing back, the formation was slightly scattered, obviously I didn't expect to meet the Ming Navy unexpectedly, vaguely, you can also see that with the car, there are a large number of wooden planks, which shows that in a short period of time, the Huailing Army can be tied into a raft to cross the water.
"Good!" Wei Feng shouted loudly: "With the Huailing Army, you won't be afraid that Tan Daoji will run away, keep an eye on Gu Gu, but don't alarm him!" ”
"Yes!" A wave of flags sounded, and a battleship sailed to the opposite shore, releasing a few scouts.
Liu Xingnan couldn't help but say, "General, don't you send an army to pursue?" The cavalry crossed the river very quickly, and if he ran away, he would not regret killing you! ”
Wei Feng's eyes showed an idiot-like look, and he shook his head in disappointment: "Even if the Huailing army finds the trace of our army, it will not turn around and leave immediately, he always has to try, it is likely that he will cross the river at night, I will let him come over, and when he crosses the river and besieges him, Tan Daoji will not dare to leave even if he wants to." ”
"Oh~~" Liu Xingnan's face was slightly red and nodded
That night, Wei Feng did not sleep as usual, and at about one o'clock in the morning, Miss Chen ran into the cabin and said, "King, as you expected, the Huailing army began to cross the river fifty miles downstream. ”
Wei Feng frowned, pinched his fingers and calculated, and said after a while: "The whole army is ready, and we will set off in an hour!" ”
"Yes!" Miss Chen took the order and left.
An hour passed in a flash, the fleet went down the river, the cavalry followed the ships at a medium speed, and twenty miles southwest of the river, on the field, tens of thousands of soldiers wrapped in thick felt and clothes slept in the same way, this is the Yao Wei Department and the Tan Dao Ji Department, because of the need to be flexible and mobile, ready to fight, both departments did not bring camp tents.
Although everyone was wrapped in several layers of felt, the bitter cold of the winter night still made the sergeants unconsciously huddle together.
Tan Daoji, Yao Huan and others did not fall asleep, but sat around with a bonfire, all silent, looking preoccupied.
Suddenly, the silence was broken by a rush of footsteps, and several people hurriedly turned their heads to look, and a Beifu army scout rushed over.
Huan Daoji's heart moved, and he asked urgently, "What's the matter?" ”
The scout hurriedly saluted: "General Yutan and several generals, the Huailing army has crossed the river fifty miles downstream of the Ming army. ”
Tan Daoji asked again: "Can it be detected by the Ming army." ”
The scout hesitated for a moment, then said, "Nothing." ”
Tan Daoji waved his hand, and after the scout retreated, he turned his head and said, "I hope you will help me to meet the Huailing army, so as not to change." ”
Several people glanced at each other, and Mu Suiliu tried to say: "General Tan, is it possible, this is the bait of the Ming army?" With the Huailing army as bait, set up an ambush on the main road on the way, and take advantage of the darkness to encircle and annihilate our army? ”
Tan Daoji said without thinking: "Huaibei Qianli Plain, how to set up an ambush?" What's more, our army can reach the water at any way, how does the king of Ming know? Please rest assured, King Ming will not be bored, saving soldiers is like fighting fire, please do not hesitate. ”
Bald Wenzhi put on a look of thinking about you, and persuaded: "King Ming is thoughtful and wise, so it's better to be careful." ”
These people are not left, not right, in Tan Daoji, it is definitely not for their reason to put on a bright face, they dare to attack the Ming army with a tired division when they first arrive during the day, how can they have so many scruples? It must be for the sake of asking for benefits!
Tan Daoji was secretly annoyed, time waits for no one, so he simply let it go, and sneered: "Even if you encounter an ambush, what's the matter? If the general is not mistaken, you still have a cavalry hidden in the shadows, you can notify it to be attached to the rear of our army, if the Ming army sets up an ambush, wouldn't it be able to outflank it, make it suffer the consequences, or even defeat it in one fell swoop?
