Chapter 336: The Decisive Battle

"Boom, boom, boom-" The wolf smoke was everywhere, and the artillery of the Ming army began to exert power, and every time the cannon rang out, it was the horses that neighed and people screamed. Zhu Di no longer had any reservations, and greeted the Tatar soldiers with all the ammunition in the city.

Hit it very hard, hard, and don't give them a chance to turn over again.

"The Ming army is so fierce!" Arutai wanted to cry without tears, and some regretted being the enemy of Zhu Di, listening to Zhu Gaosui's shouting in the back, what was Chen Yuan's plan, he was angry and hateful in his heart, he was the one who was out of the alliance, the soldiers were fast, and it was also his idea to run thousands of miles to attack him? Bastard, when did there be such a figure in the Ming army? How many heads and arms does he have? Eat yourself to death.

Looking at the powerful artillery, the Ming army that killed from the south and southwest, and their own cavalry were scattered, which was simply a nightmare for Arutai.

After a while, he could only simply organize his subordinates and let the cavalry disperse, so that although the impact of the cavalry was dispersed, it also reduced casualties, after all, for artillery, the denser the enemy army, the stronger its lethality. Then he rushed towards Zhu Di. The target is directed at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di looked at the cavalry on the opposite side and quickly adjusted the formation, you must know that this is when charging at high speed, which means that the cavalry of the other party is not only superb in horsemanship, but also prohibitive, and it is definitely an elite division.

"No wonder the Tatar cavalry can run amok, they really have some ability, several battles, even if they are desperate, they can be quickly organized!" Zhu Di squinted his eyes and sighed.

Chen Yuan couldn't help nodding, the heroes of the Alutai side are not only ruthless, but also have a long-term military vision. The combat ability of leading troops is first-class, and in a hurry, they can also launch a counteroffensive.

"Musketeers ready!" Looking at the cavalry that was getting closer and closer, Zhu Di gave the order again.

With Zhu Di's order, the musketeers of the front army stepped forward together, and when the opponent's cavalry entered the firing range, they immediately fired, and in an instant the cavalry fell in rows, and the entire cavalry seemed to hit an invisible iron curtain, and the speed slowed down suddenly.

"Cavalry attack!" Zhu Di, who had a serious face, gave the order again, and in an instant, Zhang Ying and Zheng Heng led the cavalry respectively and launched a charge. Zheng Heng took his father's position as the deputy Qianhu of Daxing Zuowei in his early years, and later sent an envoy to Mobei and promoted Mi Yunwei to command the affairs. When Zhu Di was martyred, Zheng Heng led his troops to surrender, made many military exploits, and was promoted to the Zuo Governor of the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion and was named the Marquis of Wu'an. It is also a person with some ability, who began to have opinions about Chen Yuan, this time seeing Chen Yuan turning the tide, he was very ashamed, and together with Zhang Ying, he fought hard, striving to kill more Tatar soldiers, and redeem the credit.

With the dispatch of the cavalry, the direction of this war has become clear, the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty is not weak, Zhu Di has been on the battlefield for a long time, so he has a very accurate grasp of the cavalry attack, when the Arutai cavalry was disrupted by artillery and muskets, the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty was like a sharp knife, and the Tatar cavalry was cut into two sections at once.

Arutai felt that something was wrong, there was Zhu Gaoxu in the west and Zhu Di's cavalry in the south, and he immediately let his remaining rear army dispatch, wanting to block the charge of the Ming cavalry, but what he didn't expect was that the Ming cavalry was full of breath, and the elite was incomparable, and they actually chiseled through his cavalry alive, rushing and killing everywhere, as if entering a no-man's land, the Tatar soldiers began to be confused.

Seeing that the battle situation was unfavorable, Arutai raised his head to the sky and roared, carefully planning for ten years, today is a complete defeat, watching his people being cut down one by one, he wanted to lead the army to kill the Ming army, but was stopped by the pinch. His face was covered with blood, and he cried and said, "Master, let's withdraw." ”

"I'm going to kill Zhu Di, I'm going to kill Tuohuan, I'm going to kill Chen Yuan!" Arutai had a lot of strength, and it took more than a dozen people to stop him.

"Taishi, leave the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood, our grain and grass are finished, we can't fight anymore, and if we fight again, our clansmen will be gone."

Arutai yelled, scolded fiercely in the direction of Zhu Di, calmed down a little, and quickly made a decision, after all, as a veteran who has been on the battlefield for decades, he knows a truth very well, he must not hesitate on the battlefield, even if it is a wrong decision, it is better than no decision.

So in this case, Arutai very decisively ordered a retreat, and at the same time ordered the army wandering on the edge of the battlefield to be ready to rescue, and even the Chinese army around him was ready to rush forward at any time, no matter what, to block the attack of the Ming army.

"Withdraw!" Arutai's eyes were blood-red, filled with anger, remorse, disappointment, and unwillingness. His dream of chasing the Central Plains was completely shattered.

As the order for Arutai to retreat was issued, the generals such as Lost Digan and A'er Beggar were also relieved, and then these people commanded the army to retreat, and the Ming cavalry also took advantage of the situation to cover up.

The armies of the tribes of Arutai were already demoralized, and now when the order to retreat was given, everyone was only concerned about fleeing for their lives, so when the cavalry of the Ming army pursued and killed, the Tatar soldiers were even more seriously defeated.

On the battlefield, once morale is lost, no matter how well-equipped and how strict the training is, it is useless at this time, everyone only cares about fleeing for their lives, and there are even cases of trampling on each other and dying, and there are corpses of people and horses everywhere.

The cavalry of the Ming army was almost like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, and almost did not encounter any decent resistance, and some surrendered directly.

However, Arutai is Arutai, he gave up the troops in the center of the war, those who were dumplings by the Ming army, there was no way to retreat, and tens of thousands of troops wandered on the edge of the battlefield, plus some of his own Chinese army, for a time he blocked the Ming cavalry's charge, organized about 80,000 fresh troops, and fled to the north. At the same time, there were hundreds of Ming troops in the east, and he asked Ah Erman to lead the army to retreat to the east.

Zhu Gaoxu and others moved closer to Zhu Di.

"Father." Zhu Gaoxu was heroic on horseback, and his armor was covered with blood.

This son's politics is not successful, but the battlefield is handy, Zhu Di is very happy: "My son is worthy of being a descendant of the Zhu family." ”

"Father, Arutai has fled." Zhu Gaosui also patted over.

Zhu Di reprimanded: "I saw it. You are fooling around, dignified lord, to be a charge general. ”

Zhu Gaosui said with a big grin: "Father, when you were the king of Yan, you took the lead and swept Mobei. As your son, Erchen can't embarrass you, isn't it, the descendants of our Zhu family, in the face of foreign clans, can't have a coward. He dared to come, beat his mother, died on the battlefield, and told them that our Zhu family is not a bad breed. ”

The tone of his words was rude, but Zhu Di was pleased, and he was overjoyed: "Okay, in the future, foreign clans dare to invade my Ming Dynasty, and all the descendants of my Zhu family will not be allowed to retreat. ”

Zhu Gaosui shouted loudly: "Intruder, even if you are far away, you will be punished!" ”

The Ming army also immediately shouted: "Invaders, even if they are far away, they will be punished!" ”

The shouts made the Tatar soldiers' liver and gallbladder crack sharply, and they were deafening. They are invaders, they are nightmares, and the chanting of the Ming army makes them dare not face their hearts, and they retreat layer by layer, and they dare not underestimate the Ming Dynasty in the future.

"Father, please join forces and hunt down Arutai." Zhu Gaoxu requested.

Arutai fled in two ways, and if the Ming army pursued and killed in two ways, it was inevitable that the supply of grain and grass would not be available, and they would be reflexively killed by the other way. So the best way is to chase all the way. Zhu Gaoxu saw this.

Zhu Di was a little moved, didn't he fight for so long just to defeat Arutai, and at this time, he pursued Arutai and had a chance to kill him. Other generals also pleaded, but only Chen Yuan was silent.

"Retreat, in your opinion?"

"Your Majesty, the ministers think that they should pursue A'er and beggar."

As soon as his words came out, all the generals were surprised, but Chen Yuan was strategic, and they no longer underestimated Chen Yuan, but felt very strange.

"Oh, why?" Zhu Di squinted his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the Duoyan Sanwei led by A'er Beggar is the elite of my northeast of the Ming Dynasty, and the Nu'er Gandusi is the barrier of my northeast. The cavalry is extremely powerful, and we go deep into Mobei, and it is not easy to catch him, and it is difficult to supply food and grass. Our center of gravity should be in Nu'er Gandusi, if North Korea takes advantage of the weakness, our northeast will be in danger. ”

Zhu Di nodded and said, "What you said is very much in line with my intentions." ”

Zhu Gaoxu showed disappointment: "It's a pity that Arutai was cheaper and let him run away." ”

Chen Yuan said: "The prince doesn't have to worry, Arutai can't run." ”

“??” Zhu Gaoxu was puzzled, and the others were also at a loss.

"There is still Dehuan in the west, and he will not let go of Arutai." Chen Yuan explained.
