Chapter 21: The Prairie Eagle

On the other hand, Li Yan also found that something was wrong.

Could it be that the night that was scattered out was not harvested and was raided? But Li Yan quickly dispelled this idea.

The ghosts that wander on the edge of the battlefield are the ghosts that are far apart from each other but keep in touch, and no army can silently extinguish the other's nights without being discovered.

What's more, the night of their Dashun army is full of elite veterans, riding ** Zhan and extremely vigilant.

Li Mu, who came with Li Yan this time, also asked, "Brother, why hasn't the Ming army moved yet?" Chongzhen Lao'er shouldn't be planning to break through, right? ”

"No, it won't." Li Yan said, "The Ming army will definitely break through tonight." ”

Li Mu said: "That's weird, what is Chongzhen Lao Er rubbing?" ”

After a pause, Li Mu suddenly thought and said, "Brother, shouldn't the Ming army break through from the front?" ”

"It can't be." Li Yan sneered and said, "There are four thousand cavalry of our Dashun Army and the Gongtu tribe in front, and he will ...... with Chongzhen's two guts."

Speaking of this, Li Yan's voice stopped abruptly.

Li Mu asked, "Brother, what is he?" ”

Li Yan got up and said, "It's not good, go back!" ”

"What? Get back? Li Mu got up blankly.

How do you go back again? Don't catch Chongzhen's old man?

……

More than a thousand Ming troops had already lined up in the dark.

The dozens of bonfires in the camp behind him were deliberately lit in order to loom in order to illuminate the more than 100 felt-wrapped tents in the camp and create the illusion that the Ming army was still asleep.

But in fact, the Ming army had already assembled in the shadows behind the parapet.

It was pitch black behind the parapet, and more than 1,000 people were silent.

Through the faint light of the campfire, only a vague outline could be seen.

Zhu Gaoyuan turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Wang Daban, are you ready?" ”

The first priority of the breakthrough was to fill in a trench, and Wang Chengen was in charge of this matter, and the old eunuch with more than 100 eunuchs had filled hundreds of sacks of soil overnight.

The eunuchs were to throw sacks into the trenches and fill in a passage.

Then the Ming army will be able to step on this passage and launch a breakthrough battle.

After receiving Wang Chengen's affirmative answer, Zhu Gaoyuan nodded happily and said, "Then let's start." ”

"The old slave obeys." Wang Chengen agreed, and then turned his head and waved, and the little eunuchs who had been waiting behind him for a long time raised their sacks one after another and threw them into the trench outside the parapet.

In order to reduce the noise, the eunuchs moved very little.

But the speed of filling was very fast, and in a few moments, the passage was already filled.

Zhu Gaoyuan pulled down his visor, and then got on the horse.

Seeing this, the officials and nobles on both sides and the soldiers of the Ming army followed on their horses, and there was no neighing of the war horse during the whole process, only a low snort, and the war horse had already been attached.

"Polished ......" In the clear groan of metal friction, Zhu Gaoyuan slowly drew his knife.

However, just as Zhu Gaoyuan was about to raise his knife, his movements suddenly stopped, and the expression on his face froze.

I saw that under the dark night ahead, a little fire jumped out without warning, but this faint firelight was like a sledgehammer slammed into Zhu Gaoyuan's heart.

Because it's not a little fire!

This should be...... An army!

Sure enough, this little flame quickly turned into a piece!

"This ......" Wang Jiayan and other officials were also stunned.

……

Li Yan was also stunned for a moment.

Li Mu was also stunned and said, "Brother, is this the reinforcement of General Li You or General Gu Kecheng arriving?" ”

"It's not." Li Yan shook his head resolutely, "Our messenger was just sent out in the afternoon, so it is impossible for General Li You and General Gu Kecheng's reinforcements to arrive so quickly!" ”

Li Mou said: "So you say that you are Mongolians? ”

Li Yan said: "It's impossible, the principle is the same." ”

"Whose reinforcements will that be?" Li Mou said, "Could it be the Ming Army?" ”

"Leave him alone!" Li Yan said in a deep voice, "Let's hurry back to the West Bank!" ”

Now Li Yan is not only worried that Chongzhen will run away, but also worried about the safety of the camp on the west bank, he only left Li Nian with 500 people, in case it is really the Ming army that comes, then under the attack of the Ming army on both sides, Li Nian's only 500 people will definitely not be able to withstand it, so the baggage left in the camp will be all over.

And without baggage, they will not be able to move an inch in the Chahar steppe.

Therefore, it is necessary to return to the West Bank as soon as possible to keep the food and grass in the camp.

As soon as Li Yan gave an order, the war horses that were originally lying flat in the grass stood up one after another.

Immediately afterwards, torches were lit, and the east bank of the White River was illuminated as bright as day in an instant.

Almost at the same time as the Dashun army lit the torches, hundreds of torches were also lit up in the southeast corner, that is, in the direction of the lower reaches of the Baihe River, but the ambush soldiers of the Gongtu Department could not hold their breath and took the initiative to appear.

Li Yan didn't even look at it.

He had already guessed that the Arch Rabbit Department was there.

……

Li Yan didn't take the ambush soldiers of the Arch Rabbit Department to heart,

The officials of the Ming Dynasty were all frightened.

Before the cavalry that had suddenly arrived in front of him could figure it out, an ambush suddenly appeared on the other side of the river, and not one, but two!

If you break through according to Wang Jiayan's plan,

Not only will the main force going north crash into the ambush, but Chongzhen and a small number of elites accompanying him will also be intercepted by the ambush in the southeast corner, and the final result can be imagined.

Thinking of this, Wang Jiayan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

It's a shame that the Holy One didn't listen to him, otherwise it would have been all over.

However, Zhu Gaoyuan's mood was not much better.

Because this perfect breakout plan has been lost.

Originally, while the thieves and the main force of the Gongtu Department were on the east bank, they could at least grab an hour's time, because it takes time to wade across the river, and the soldiers must first take off their clothes and armor before crossing the river, and then roll their clothes and armor into a ball on their heads, and after crossing the river, they must first wipe their bodies clean, and then put on their clothes and armor, which will take time.

Otherwise, it is easy to get sick in wet clothes.

Of course, if it comes to the moment of 100,000 urgency, you don't care about getting sick or not, and you can force it directly.

For example, now, the rogue cavalry in the northeast corner and the Gongtu cavalry in the southeast corner don't care about these, and they don't care about stripping and removing their armor, so they directly urge their war horses to rush into the icy river.

So, now, it is impossible to break through.

Zhu Gaoyuan once again set his eyes on the grassland in front of him.

Who the fuck is that? It's my breakthrough plan!

……

"Hahaha, it's quite timely."

Hu Xinshui looked up to the sky and let out a happy laugh.

Hu Guozhu stretched out his hand and pointed ahead and asked, "Abba, what's going on?" ”

"You might as well guess." Hu Xinshui said, "What's going on ahead?" ”

"I guess." Hu Guozhu scratched his head and said, "I can't guess." ”

Hu Xinshui said: "Then let me tell you what happened, the camp in front is divided into three places, and the distance between them is about five hundred steps, which shows that they belong to three different camps." ”

"That is to say, in addition to the Ming army and the Gongtu tribe, there is also an army."

"This is also the army we found in the Fog Spirit Valley before, I guess it should be the bandits."

Stretched out his hand and pointed to the east bank of the White River, and said: "Judging from the equipment, the two cavalry who are crossing the river should be the thieves and the ambush soldiers of the Gongtu tribe, they must think that Chongzhen will lead the Ming army to break through from the east bank tonight, so they waded across the river in advance and waited for him on the east bank, but it turned out to be disturbed by our father and son, haha." ”

Hu Guozhu cast an adoring glance at Hu Xinshui: "Abba, you are really amazing." ”

"Then you have to learn more." Hu Xinshui lovingly rubbed Hu Guozhu's head.

While the father and son were talking, a thousand Yiding had slowly approached the Gongtu camp.

Hu Xinshui didn't want to start a war with the Gongtu Department, he just wanted to sing a play with his former friends.

At this time, the main force of the cavalry of the Gongtu Department had returned to the west bank with the wet Gongtu Division, and after meeting with Hairigu, he quickly formed a cavalry formation and faced Hu Xinshui's Qianyiding.

About a stone's throw away, the two sides stopped tacitly.

Then Hu Xinshui took Hu Guozhu and slowly walked out of the riding formation.

Seeing this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he also rode out of the battle alone.

Until they were less than ten steps apart, Hu Xinshui and his son stopped at the same time.

"It's you!" A look of shock appeared on his face, and he said in a deep voice, "Buriged! The eagle of the steppe! I didn't expect you to be alive! ”

"Didn't expect that, did you?" Hu Xinshui said, "You traitor!" ”

"You're talking nonsense." "I'm not a traitor. ”

Hu Xinshui said: "Your Gongtu tribe betrayed the descendants of the Golden Family, and you still say that you are not traitors?" ”

"The Golden Family has been the patron saint of the steppe for generations, but you and your Abba have abandoned the people and fled the steppe, the Golden Family has no descendants like you, and the great Genghis Khan has no cowardly descendants like you, you shouldn't come back!" ”

"So what?" Hu Xinshui said abruptly.

"You want to kill Anta, who grew up in a small piece?"

"You're not my answer, I don't have an answer like you."

He snatched the spear from Hu Cong's hand and urged his horse to rush towards Hu Xinshui.

Hu Guozhu was eager to try, but was stopped by Hu Xinshui: "This is Abba's business." ”

At that moment, the two of them began to rush back and forth, but Hu Xinshui's 1,000 Yiding and the 2,000 cavalry of the Gongtu tribe watched from beginning to end, which was the rule of the Mongols.
