Volume 1 Jingshi Chapter 43 Bai Shan Descends the Mountain
Chapter 43: Under the White Mountain
It's just that Dayan Khan is not reconciled,
Unwilling to retreat outside the gate like this.
Dayan Khan from the age of seven, Manduhai held him to fight the thorns, from the age of fourteen to Manduhai pro-government, it can be said that invincible, invincible, in his life has not been half defeated. But now he is defeated in the hands of the emperor Xiao'er of the Southern Dynasty.
If this emperor has a good reputation, he has long heard that the emperor of the Southern Dynasty is just a naughty boy who doesn't grow up. And he was defeated at the hands of a naughty boy, so what is he? He has been famous all his life, and he beat this child's father who couldn't sleep at night, but he put a lifetime of fame in the hands of this child, how could he swallow this breath.
If he didn't find this field, how could he be willing to return to the grassland like this.
Although it was only a few days away from the battle of the day, Dayan Khan had already summed up a little, that is, he underestimated Zhengde, and he underestimated the enemy in this battle.
Zhengde children still have courage.
If he doesn't have the courage, he can't stand under the impact of tens of thousands of cavalry, if he doesn't have the courage, he can't stand under the rout of the big formation, if he doesn't have the courage, how can he turn the tide and force the elite cavalry to retreat?
Such courage, even the ministers of the Southern Dynasties, not everyone has it.
He despised the infantry formation of the Southern Dynasty, and if it was just a cavalry duel, he might not lose. The Ming infantry is like an iron wall, and the cavalry is like a heavy hammer, and the combination of an iron wall and a heavy hammer can exert the greatest power. But at this time, Zhengde left behind the infantry and only chased after the cavalry, and along the way, the infantry behind him had been left far behind.
Dayan Khan faced south, suddenly turned around and said, "Everyone, all those gold and silver are so soft, right?" ”
Dayan Khan didn't harvest much when he went south, because Ningxia Suiyuan was ranked, and he had robbed it more than once, these riches were not crops, and there was still stubble after grabbing a crop, even if it was a crop, if you don't manage it, there will be no stubble. Not to mention the human head? How can you cut a stubble and still have stubble, the land of Suiyuan in Ningxia is a bitter place.
The whole Ming Dynasty knows this, and was shot a few times by Dayan Khan in a few years, what else is left in the local area, even if there is a little thing left, it is the last family of the locals This thing can fight with people, then it is a Tartar.
Therefore, during this period of time, Dayan Khan often robbed Shanxi, which is the reason.
It's just that after he came to Shanxi this time, he heard the news of Zhengde, so he immediately went to Zhengde, and he didn't let go of the plunder. The robberies around them are only some gold and silver, and there are also some valuable things, but they are all in Wuli Village.
"We lost the other day and broke our bones, and I know everybody wants to go home. Is it just that we can go home if we want to? Zhengde Xiao'er is just in the south, and we are only half a day apart, and we break through the wall, how long will it take? Usually you don't have to fight the wall at all, how much time it will take to really fight down, do you know in your heart. There are interceptions in front of this, and there are pursuers in the back. Even if you can escape from the wall, how many people can escape? ”
Dayan Khan's eyes swept over the face of every Mongolian nobleman like a torch. No one dared Dayan Khan to look at each other.
"And have you ever thought about it, we just go back like this, next year, the year after tomorrow, the year after tomorrow, can we still grab the south like no one?"
Of course it's impossible, not to mention what the morale of the army is, just talking about this loss, Dayan Khan will have to lick his wounds for several years, how can he send troops again?
"The last time we were defeated somewhere, we were defeated in the infantry formation of the Ming army, I have to admit that the foot soldiers of the Southern Dynasty are more powerful than us, but my Great Mongolian Kung Fu is not worse than the Southern Dynasty? Now, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty is in the south, just a few dozen miles away, and there are only a few thousand cavalry around him, so dare you join me. Kill it again. Killed Zhengde Xiaoer. “
"Just kill Zhengde Xiaoer. The nine sides of the Southern Dynasty are frightened, and they don't let me slaughter, as long as they kill Zhengde Xiao'er, Zhengde has no children, and the Southern Dynasty has to mess up for a while for the sake of the throne. ”
"Who wants to follow the reflexive battle and kill Zhengde."
Dayan Khan's eyes burst out with a burst of light, and for a moment it seemed like a pair of wolf eyes.
Zhong Taiji glanced at each other, bowed to the ground, and said: "I am willing to follow the Great Khan and kill Zhengde." ”
The water of the royal river flows into the Sanggan River from north to south.
The east side of this place is Baishan Mountain, the west side is Lei Gong Mountain, two mountains and a river, this is a road out of the stop, directly from Datong to the north to Zhenqiang Fort out of the customs, is the right way for Datong to go out of the customs to the north.
Under the impact of the royal river, the north is high and the south is low, and the terrain is flat. It is a good place for the cavalry brigade to attack.
Under the command of Dayan Khan, the Mongols ate the last dry food, and the Tartar march did not care too much about logistics, generally where to go to grab something, especially in the pass, but what he robbed, after the battle of Wulibao East, as well as the battle of Datong North last night, all the baggage was almost lost.
This is also one of the reasons why Dayan Khan had to fight, but could not speak.
Although he sacked the north of Datong, he could naturally get grain and grass, but time was a problem. It takes time to attack Qiangbao and loot the surroundings, and under the pursuit of Zhengde like a shadow, they have time to loot?
Therefore, it is imperative to fight Zhengde.
"Report to Your Majesty, the Mongols have already lined up at the foot of Baishan Mountain by the river."
Zhengde raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said, "Stop." The left and right immediately flew to the left and right, and the cavalry, which was originally rolling north, slowly stopped.
Zhengde called Xu Tai and several others over to discuss countermeasures.
Xu Tai and others felt that they should be serious, so they dragged it without fighting, and waited for the four sides to encircle, Liaodong Xuanda Taiyuan, and Ningxia Suiyuan all had elite soldiers and strong generals in Datong, why do you have to share the victory or defeat with Dayan Khan, just drag the opponent, make other armies detour to support Zhenqiang Fort, and block Dayan Khan in the pass, can he still fly out of the wall? Of course, there is also a little bit of caution that cannot be spoken, that is, they have assisted the emperor to complete the feat of defeating Dayan Khan, and what can they do if they defeat Dayan Khan, the reward may not be more, and the cavalry confrontation is not like a foot pawn, the formation is rigorous, maybe there are Mongols who break into front of Zhengde, if they are shocked by the royal frame, it is a hundred deaths that can not atone for their sins.
What does it mean to draw a snake? Here it is.
But they couldn't stop Zhengde's temperament, and Zhengde was about to have a heroic duel with Dayan Khan. How could someone who was troubled by Dayan Khan's constant escape avoid a fight. The goosebumps that he was excited all over his body at the moment arched, and said: "Dayan Khan has repeatedly violated my realm, how can I spare him, and what is the wall like, you don't know, the brigade of people and horses can't get out of the pass without passing through Zhenqiang Fort, but there are too many places where more than 100 horsemen can get out." ”
That's right. Although the wall is not said to be in disrepair. Even if it is intact, the border wall of thousands of miles, if you want to find a place to let a small number of people escape, it is naturally a simple matter.
"If, according to your methods, even if this battle is won by a great victory, you will not be able to take Dayan Khan. Only in the first battle was to defeat the enemy army and behead Dayan Khan. ”
Zhengde said so, no one dares to fight, the emperor can do whatever he says.
To be honest, Zhu Bin, the arrogant generals under Xu Tai, are not afraid of the Mongols. In ancient times, there were not many times when there was a real desperate fight, and there would never be a fight to the last person, as if it was a group fight, and the people who generally started were the people in front, and the people behind were fighting the autumn wind, and when they saw the victory, they rushed up to fight a tailwind battle, and if they failed, they ran away.
This is like the last war, if it weren't for the entire emperor of Zhengde, the Ming soldiers would not dare to bear the charge of throwing an emperor to the Mongols, otherwise they would have collapsed long ago. The so-called general of the defeated army, how brave is his words.
Morale is not something that rises with a few impassioned words. And it is confidence in themselves, when everyone believes that they will win, the combat effectiveness of their army is absolutely bursting, for example, although the Ming army has chased far away now, it has long been exhausted, but everyone is confident that the Mongols are just like this, and believe that the Mongols are vulnerable, which is the confidence that Zhengde can despise the other party.
