Chapter 105: Collapse at the touch of a button

Looking at the sun and moon handsome flag fluttering in front of the opponent's formation, he was also full of emotion in his heart.

When the initial step is a camp, it has already occupied an absolute advantage, and it seems that it will be able to capture the Ming Emperor Zhu Qizhen alive.

However, the other party suddenly changed his routine, made unexpected moves one after another, and finally turned the tide of the battle, and even killed on the grassland and stole his hometown.

I thought that after Zhu Zhanji, the number of great Ming qi was exhausted, but I didn't expect that this little emperor had something and was a difficult opponent.

This time, we must no longer have contempt, respect for the opponent, that is, respect for oneself and respect for life.

A hundred years of grievances, today, between you and me, let's make a break!

Wait a minute......

I suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong.

What about the Emperor's Great Treasure?

There is only a handsome flag, no Daxu, could it be a ......

Damn, the little emperor didn't come at all!

I was also angry for a while, and just now I recognized you as an opponent, but I was slapped in the face in a blink of an eye.

It's just too deceitful!

"Pass the order down and pull out the general's cannon!"

In the original battle plan, these twelve general cannons were their secret weapons, and they would not be revealed until the critical moment.

However, in the face of the little emperor who didn't regard himself as a human being, he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart first, and directly made a big move.

"The master has an order, the cannon comes forward!"

"The cavalry is scattered on both flanks, ready to outflank!"

"Keep up in the back and get ready to attack!"

One after another, the orders were passed on, and the twelve general cannons were pushed to the front of the formation, and the barrels of the black holes were aimed at the Ming army positions in front.

It's spring and summer, but it's still cold and windy on the grassland, and the howling north wind blows through the battlefield between the two sides, rolling up patches of dead grass.

also rode on horseback first, looking at the advancing Ming army, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Closer, it's in range.

Aren't you powerful with firearms, this time to make you ......

Rumble!

Just as Yexian Meizizi was waiting for the Ming army to enter the firing range, the roar of artillery suddenly came from the opposite position.

Rumble!

Rumble!

Rumble!

There was a roar ahead, and the ground trembled beneath his feet.

I was also angry at first, who do you look down on so far away?

Showmanship, huh?

You have a cannon, don't you?

However, in the next second, he heard the sound of cannonballs breaking through the air......

"Not good!"

In a hurry, I didn't have time to think first, and subconsciously turned over and dismounted.

Bang!

At the same time, a shell exploded not far in front of him!

The shock wave from the explosion mixed with shrapnel scattered in all directions, and the Warat army was immediately killed and wounded.

Fortunately, he dodged in time and escaped.

His horse was not so lucky, and before he could even let out a wail, he fell in a pool of blood.

At this time, there was a blank in the brain.

Why?

How did the Ming army manage to do it at such a long range?

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The explosions continued one after another, and the Warat army suddenly became a hell on earth.

"Fire, shoot back!"

At the critical moment, he also maintained a trace of calm and commanded the troops to fight back.

Bang!

Bang!

The general's cannon spat out tongues of fire, and shells flew towards the Ming army's position with a roar...... More than 100 steps ahead......

He also looked at everything that happened in front of him in a daze, and his heart suddenly felt like ashes.

"Retreat, retreat!"

In front of the Ming army, Yu Qian watched from afar as the Wara soldiers were defeated, and waved his hand: "Shenji Battalion, stop attacking!" ”

Li Zhen couldn't hold back for a long time, and asked: "Lord Yu, hurry up and order the pursuit, the three thousand battalions are willing to be the vanguard!" ”

Yu Qian continued: "Order, camp on the spot!" ”

Li Zhen couldn't help but ask: "Our army has won a big victory, why don't you take advantage of the situation to pursue?" ”

Yu Qian ignored him, and just said: "Marquis of Xiangcheng, I bother you to take three thousand battalions to Yumuchuan and take the emperor over." ”

"...... to adults"

"Marquis of Xiangcheng!" Yu Qian interrupted him and said expressionlessly, "I am now the commander-in-chief, please obey the order!" ”

Li Zhen was helpless, so she had to clench her fists and say: "The last general will take the order!" ”

That night, the army re-encamped, and Yu Qian and other major generals came to the Chinese army's tent in Zhuqi Town to discuss the next battle plan.

At the beginning of the meeting, Li Zhen took the lead and said: "Lord Yu, there is something unclear in the end, and Warat is defeated, why don't you pursue it?" ”

"yes!"

Chen Ying also said: "Warat was caught off guard by our artillery, if you don't take advantage of the situation to pursue today and expand the results of the battle, won't you be prepared in the future?" ”

Zhu Qizhen was also a little puzzled, beating the water dog, not beating in vain.

Could it be that Yu Qian is worried that the other party is cheating?

There's no need to be so cautious......

In the face of everyone's doubts, Yu Qian did not rush to defend himself, but asked rhetorically: "You must first make one thing clear, what is our purpose in this Northern Expedition?" ”

"The purpose ......," Li Zhen hurriedly said, "Of course, it is to defeat Warat first!" ”

Yu Qian nodded and said: "Since Emperor Taizu, there have been disputes between my Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan, Emperor Taizong has invaded Mobei six times, and the Mongols fled in less than thirty years, and they have made a comeback again!" ”

"If this Northern Expedition is to repel the Warat people, and the army returns to Beijing in triumph, let me ask, have we achieved our goal?"

"They have been dormant for five, ten, or twenty years at most, and as soon as they regain their strength, they will once again step into the Great Wall and harass the border towns."

"What to do then, organize another Northern Expedition? The army went out to fight, labored the people and lost money, and the Northern Expedition again and again, but it was never able to eradicate the trouble of Mobei, Your Majesty, do you say that this battle is cost-effective? ”

After listening carefully, Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but nod and asked, "What do you mean that we can't rush into the success of a battle, but we have to think long-term and completely eliminate it!" ”

"That's exactly what the minister meant!"

"In that case, let's talk about your next step."

Yu Qian said: "The power of our firearms is huge, and the Warat people have no chance of winning in a frontal battle, and now we have to consider how to occupy the land and gradually compress the living space of the Warat people until they are completely defeated!" ”

"Step by step, gradually encroaching on the land of the Warats, is that what you mean?"

The minister suggested that every time the army was marched, the camp should not be dismantled, but a part of the soldiers should be left to garrison. The emperor issued another holy decree, if the people came to settle down, the court promised to distribute the land, and give some resettlement money, so that the army fought on the front line, and the people consolidated the front line in the rear, until the Warat Department completely disappeared from the grassland! ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded again and again, Yu Qian still saw the problem thoroughly, Emperor Taizong knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but as long as you withdraw the army, people will come back after ten or eight years of hibernation.

Such a large-scale war, how huge the cost, if it can't be done once and for all, the trouble of Mobei is like a bottomless pit, and there is no amount of food to fill it.
