In March of the fifteenth year of orthodoxy, Li Zhen, Marquis of Xiangcheng, led 3,000 battalions from Beijing.

The 3,000 battalions were all cavalry, did not carry baggage, marched very fast, passed through Juyong Pass, went all the way north, and in half a month, they ran for more than 2,000 miles and arrived at Yumu River.

At the same time, in the hinterland of Mobei, he was also listening to the report of the scouts in front.

"Qiqi Taishi, about 3,000 people have already left the Great Wall first, and it seems that they are the vanguard of the southerners."

"Only 3,000 centaurs?"

"Yes, according to the spies lurking in Dadu, the large army of the southerners is still being assembled."

As if he had caught his prey, Batumunk said, "So this army of three thousand men is a lone army? ”

"Exactly."

"Summoning Boyan here!"

Not long after, Boyan came to the big tent with a waist knife.

At the beginning of the battle of Tumubao, one eye was burned by the lime powder of the Ming army, and now there is only one eye left, which looks even more fierce.

He has always remembered this hatred, just waiting for him to go south again, vowing to gouge out the eyes of the little emperor and be ashamed.

"Big brother, I heard that the southerners are gathering soldiers and horses?"

He also nodded first and said, "There are 3,000 Ming troops who have crossed the Great Wall and are heading towards the area of Yumu River. ”

Boyan laughed and said, "Big brother, this is a chance for me to make meritorious contributions?" ”

"The southerners are extremely cunning, they suffered a loss last time, it is better to be cautious!"

"Big brother, don't worry, I'll lead the troops to Yumu River and eat these 3,000 people!"

He also asked, "Tell me, how many people do you need?" ”

Boyan didn't even think about it, and blurted out: "Five hundred warriors are enough!" ”

He shook his head first and said, "That's it, the Ming army has 3,000 people, I'll give you 5,000, you have to fight quickly!" ”

Tomato is free to read

"Big brother is too worried, to deal with those southerners, five hundred people are enough."

"How did you suffer a loss in front of you, did you forget it so quickly?"

Ye Xian's face was heavy, and he said meaningfully: "I want you to eat this Ming army, don't stop, move forward immediately, as the vanguard of the army, try the reality of the Ming army." ”

Boyan's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Obey!" ”

He also thought for a long time, wrote a letter, and then summoned his subordinates to come over, and ordered: "Go to Yingchang immediately, and send this letter to Tokhoff without sweating, and say that this Taishi is going to convene the Kuriltai Conference." ”

The Kurultai Assembly was the most formal political and military assembly of the Mongols, which was used to elect leaders and decide on major events such as conquests.

All the Great Khans of the Mongol Empire, such as Genghis Khan and Ögedei Khan, were elected by Kuriltai.

After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Empire, the Northern Yuan was divided into Tatar, Warat, Uliangha and other departments, and the Tatar department has always been in the hands of the orthodox golden family.

It stands to reason that such a meeting would have to be convened by Tokhtabu himself.

However, I also had the heart to compete with the Tatar Ministry for a long time, what bullshit gold family, advocating force on the grassland, whoever has more soldiers and horses, who has the right to speak!

Therefore, he took this opportunity to propose the convening of the Kurultai Conference, first, to unite the grassland tribes to fight against the Ming army, and secondly, to put pressure on Toktobuhua.

If Tokhtar is not invited to participate, it means that Yexian's influence has surpassed that of his Great Khan.

On the contrary, if he does not participate, then the other tribes can become Khan and completely replace the Golden Family.

At the same time, Boyan ordered 5,000 elite cavalry and immediately rushed towards the Yumu River.

The Mongol cavalry was one man and two horses on different horses, marching at great speed, and ten days later, they had reached the Yumu River, only to find that the Ming people seemed to have just arrived and were setting up camp.

Boyan made a decision immediately, did not leave time for the Ming army to prepare, and immediately issued a combat order.

The strength of the Mongolian cavalry lies in the formation, usually composed of five columns, the front team of heavy cavalry, the rear team of light cavalry, the battle line is thin but wide, forming a situation of encirclement of the enemy.

When approaching the enemy, the heavy cavalry slows down, the light cavalry quickly advances, and shoots the enemy with the heavy bow unique to the Mongol cavalry outside the enemy's range, and after the shot, quickly retreats to a certain position to regroup, and immediately launches a second wave of offensive.

Such waves of charge firing, usually after three waves, the enemy's morale collapses, and the formation begins to disintegrate.

At this time, the Mongol cavalry began to charge the enemy quickly in a closed formation, cutting through the encirclement until all the enemy was destroyed, and usually few of the enemy escaped alive.

This is the wedge-shaped charge tactic invented by Genghis Khan, in order to conquer the world and establish the Mongol Empire, which spanned the three continents of Asia, Africa and Europe, and was invincible.

And today, as if possessed by Genghis Khan, Boyan took the lead in the charge.

He knew very well that the Ming army's firearms were powerful and could effectively suppress the play of cavalry tactics.

At the beginning, Zhu Di's sweep of Mobei also relied on the musket cannons of the Shenji Battalion, if you want to crack the opponent's firearms, the best way is to blitzkrieg, and don't give you time to prepare!

Five thousand people were like a sharp sword, stabbing towards the Ming army that was not yet ready!

The musket needs to be reloaded, and the operation of the artillery is more cumbersome, as long as the opponent rushes in before he prepares, the hand-to-hand combat Ming army has absolutely no chance!

Opportunities are fleeting, and when they are interrupted, they are chaotic!

The humiliation suffered by Tumubao at the beginning is being repaid by you today!

Sure enough, as Boyan expected, when the Ming army found out that the Mongolian cavalry was rushing over, there was no time.

Li Zhen walked out of the camp and saw the Mongolian cavalry falling from the sky, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Artillery ready!"

Twenty Furlong cannons were unveiled and aimed at the menacing cavalry.

Li Zhen visually measured the distance between the two sides, and the other party had already arrived at the minefield arranged in advance in a blink of an eye.

"Put!"

Twenty Fran cannons spat out tongues of fire, fist-sized shells turned into arcs, and smashed into the roaring cavalry phalanx.

Boyan heard the roar that shook the sky, but he didn't panic.

At this distance, the artillery fired a salvo at most.

He has 5,000 people, and even if 180 of them die, it still doesn't affect the play of tactics.

Bang!

When the shell hit the ground, it burst open, and pieces of iron flew sideways, killing and wounding one another.

Bang!

Bang!

Boyan suddenly realized that this time the shell was not the original iron lump, but a flowering shell!

The flowering bomb was very powerful, but it often exploded, killing 1,000 enemies and injuring 2,000 themselves, so the Ming army rarely used it on a large scale.

Seeing the sound of explosions repeatedly, the number of losses far exceeded expectations.

However, it was too late to retreat at this point.

Bo Yan secretly made up his mind, the matter has come to this, even if he fights for casualties, as long as he rushes in front of the other party, the advantage is still on his side.

Cunning southerners, wait to meet death!
