Chapter 105: Reality and Fiction are Unfathomable
Nahachu glanced at him, stretched out his hand and pointed to the guide, and said in a deep voice: "The Ming army came from Tongzhou, and it was bound to be all cavalry, so that it could catch up, and it was impossible to carry grain and grass with the army. By this point, I must have been exhausted, so I simply left the way into the city and rushed to fight for a while. drove them into Gyeongju, and then completely defended the lonely city, cut off the road, and when Feng Sheng Lao'er arrived from Tongzhou, his tens of thousands of horses would have starved to death. How many cavalry are there in the middle of Blue Jade City? DID YOU KNOW? It turned out that he saw that Gyeongju was desperate and difficult to capture at this time, so he simply deliberately set aside a road, wanting to force Feng Sheng's reinforcements to enter the death site of Gyeongju, so as to completely annihilate all the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty's northern expeditionary army and completely disintegrate Zhu Yuanzhang's expeditionary plan.
Highlander recalled what he saw when he attacked the blue jade army that night, and continued in a deep voice: "From what his subordinates have seen, it is about 10,000, and he raided Gyeongju last night, and there should be a few thousand at this time." ”
Nahachu nodded, and said in a deep voice: "If we stay in the direction of due south and fight fiercely with the reinforcements dispatched by Feng Sheng, and Lan Yu suddenly comes out of the city, won't we be attacked on our backs?" ”
Highlander is also a leading general, so he naturally knows that the two armies are fighting, and he is most afraid of being attacked by the enemy, and he can't help but bow his head when he hears the words.
As early as when Zhu Quan detonated the gunpowder and blew up the city gatehouse, the earth-shattering loud noise spread far away, faintly reaching the ears of Fu Youde, who was leading the army to reinforce dozens of miles away. It turned out that he changed horses all the way and galloped all the way, and he had already arrived more than 60 miles away from Gyeongju.
Fu Youde heard this loud noise in his ears, as if he was coming from the direction of Gyeongju, and couldn't help frowning, and said: Lan Yu, Wang Bi's department has a total of 30,000 horses, according to his flying pigeon biography, he has already occupied Gyeongju, and he is guarding the city, so he wants to come without worry for a while. The front is quite hilly, and the terrain is narrow, which is not conducive to the formation of the cavalry. Thinking of this, a military order was issued to slow down the army to recover its leg strength.
Lan Yu's nephew, Brother Chang Mao, saw that Fu Youde had suddenly slowed down his march, worried about Lan Yu's safety, and couldn't help but change color on his face.
Chang Mao couldn't bear it, he held up the unique weapon "Yuwang Shuo", rode his horse to Fu Youde, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Why did the deputy marshal slow down the march?" ”
Fu Youde glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "You are still a general who commands tens of thousands of subordinates, and now our army has come from afar, riding horses and galloping to the plain under the city of Gyeongju, if you encounter a large force of Yuan army, how to fight?" Speaking of this, he paused slightly, slowed down and said: "This kid Lan Yu is crazy, but as long as he has 20,000 horses in his hands, Nahachu must be in a hurry, and he can't gnaw at him." ”
Chang Mao knew that even if he was as arrogant and hot-tempered as his Lao Tzu Chang Yuchun, he was polite to Fu Youde before his death, so he didn't dare to say much, so he had to act according to orders, and muttered secretly in his heart: You call my uncle a brat, isn't it fair and higher than me?
In the middle of the line, a Ming army scout galloped over on horseback, hugged his fist at Fu Youde and said, "Deputy Marshal Qiqi, our army camp has been found ahead." ”
Fu Youde's heart moved when he heard this, and he hurriedly led the Chang brothers to ride horses to watch. When they came to the camp, they saw that there were many tents, and the vehicles transporting grain and grass were divided between the tents, and there were no weapons on the ground, and there were traces of blood.
When Fu Youde saw this, he still fully understood in his heart, and said: Grain and grass are the lifeblood of the army, Lan Yu, Wang Bi gave up grain and grass and traveled lightly, it seems that he got a fighter plane to raid Gyeongju. Gyeongju is a choke point, and Nahachu's forces to recapture Gyeongju are bound to be strong, and after a moment of silence, he gave an order to the Chang family brothers behind him: "Let the army march a little faster, and make the movement bigger." ”
Chang Mao was even more anxious when he saw the heavy grain and grass abandoned by Lan Yu in the camp, and led the cavalry to gallop, making the dust fly, and the sound of horses' hooves roared and shook the four fields.
Fu Youde had just led the army for ten miles, and saw a knight on a hillside a few miles away, after looking at his army, he turned around and rode his horse and galloped away, dressed vaguely as the Yuan army. After going to Lixu again, I saw a Yuan army scout far away.
Fu Youde stopped his horse, and immediately issued a military order, the whole army turned around, the rear team made the front team, and the camp of Lan Yu that he had just seen turned back. [East^Fang&Net .com]
The brothers of the Chang family couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, and they wanted to ask, but seeing that the main general Fu Youde had a calm face, he was not angry and arrogant, and he reached out and touched the blue jade military stick to teach him a lesson, and his buttocks, which was still faintly painful, also forbeared, and did not dare to be wordy.
When he returned to the camp of the army abandoned by Lan Yu, Fu Youde ordered the grain and grass abandoned by Lan Yu to be scattered and tied into bundles. And he sent some people to the hillside and cut down some branches and made many torches. When preparations were made, dozens of scouts were sent to guard the Quartet, and the rest of the sergeants rested in the tents. The war horses were fed with grain from the blue jade barracks to help them recover their leg strength as soon as possible.
In the Yuan army camp outside Gyeongju, Nahachu had already received two scouts in succession, saying that a large force of Ming cavalry had been found due south, but because of the dust and the distance, it was difficult to say how many people and horses there were.
Nahachu immediately sent a military order, and 80,000 cavalry quickly mounted their horses and spread out, ready to fight. But after waiting for a while, he didn't see a single enemy appear, and his heart sank.
Highlanda rode his horse in front of Nahachu, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Taiwei, since the Ming army has appeared, it is better for me to rush over now, and take them by surprise while they are tired from afar and have not yet gained a stable foothold." ”
Nahachu shook his head slightly, pointed to the south with a horsewhip, and said in a deep voice: "The main general of the enemy army is unknown, the military strength is not clear, dozens of miles to the south, there is a narrow terrain, our army is 80,000, it is difficult to expand it all, the Han people are cunning and cunning, they like to ambush the most, and they should not take risks against the enemy." ”
Seeing that the terrain in the south was indeed not conducive to the cavalry of the brigade to carry out the charge, Highlander was defeated by hundreds of remnants of his own army, and he was sent to death in vain, guessing that most of the enemy troops were resting at this time, but he was helpless.
Zhu Quan and Xu Ying stood on the wall of the south gate together, looking at the 80,000 or so troops of Nahachu, and couldn't help but be secretly frightened when they saw that the enemy's army was so huge.
Wang Bi slowly walked to Lan Yu's side and said in a low voice: "The military rations are already only the last meal, if the reinforcements can't arrive tomorrow, then they can only kill the war horses." ”
Lan Yu bowed slightly, but there was no wave on his face, and when he was about to speak, he saw the Yuan army in the distance quickly lined up to greet him, as if he was facing a great enemy, Huo Ran stood up and said: It seems that the reinforcements are not far away. Thinking of this, he turned his head to Wang Bi and said in a deep voice: "Let the cavalry seize the time to rest, and let the rations of the foot soldiers give way to the cavalry and war horses, and prepare to fight tonight." ”
Dozens of miles away, Fu Youde saw that it was already dusk, and after the soldiers and war horses had rested for two hours, they had recovered greatly, so he immediately issued a military order, asking all the soldiers to hold a torch, firmly tie the reins of the war horses loaded with grain and grass to the saddle, and rush to Gyeongju.
By the time we arrived a few miles outside of Deqingju, it was already dark. Fu Youde immediately ordered all the sergeants to light the torches, and in an instant, the stars in the dark night were full of firelight, like countless stars in the dark night, which was magnificent.
A meteor rocket unique to the Ming army flew into the night sky with a sharp whistling roar, blooming with bright sparks.
Zhu Quan and the others saw these countless torches shining in the city, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed when they knew that reinforcements were coming.
Lan Yu sent out a military order, so that the city rested for a long time, and the 7,000 or so cavalry that had recovered their vitality were all mounted and ready to fight. Wang Bi and Qin Zhuofeng led the foot soldiers and continued to hold on to the city wall.
Zhu Quan and Xu Ying led Jing Jun, Sima Chao, Ma Sanbao and others to also turn over and follow behind Lan Yu, preparing to attack with the army.
In the camp of the Yuan army, Nahachu had already learned that the reinforcements of the Ming army had arrived before Fu Youde approached Gyeongju, and he had already asked his 80,000 cavalry to wait for him, and he waited in the dark to watch the Ming army in the hands. I couldn't help but wonder: I don't know who the main general of the Ming army is, when the rescue of the soldiers is like fighting a fire, he is still not in a hurry, and only after choosing the terrain to rest and recuperate, he came to the city of Gyeongju. According to the scouts, the Ming army was strong, looking at the number of torches, why were there only less than 30,000 men and horses? Suspicious in his heart, many years of fighting on the battlefield, and Chen Youliang, Zhu Yuanzhang's experience of fighting many times told him that the Han people are particularly cunning in their use of soldiers, and the invisible enemy is often the most dangerous.
At this time, Fu Youde's army came from due south, Gyeongju, which Lan Yu was guarding, was due north, and the Yuan army to which Nahachu belonged was in the southeast.
Seeing that the reinforcements of the Ming army were far less abundant than originally thought, Tabin Timur couldn't help frowning and asked in a low voice, "Do our troops want to take the initiative to attack?"
Nahachu said in a deep voice: "The Ming army should have rested and recovered, and then rushed to the city, our army rushed to attack, but I am afraid that the casualties will be small, so we will wait and see what happens." If the enemy rode his horse towards Gyeongju, I immediately swung my army straight up and struck a blow at the waist, which was bound to inflict heavy damage on the reinforced Ming army. ”
Fu Youde estimated that Lan Yu had already seen the arrival of reinforcements, and he was ready to cooperate with the two, and immediately issued a military order, and the whole army assaulted and rushed towards the Nahachu army.
Chang Mao heard that Fu Youde actually wanted 25,000 cavalry to attack the torches of the Yuan army, and there were 70,000 or 80,000 people, and they almost fell off their horses in horror. Licking his thirsty lips, he asked in a dumb voice: "The Yuan army has not moved, why don't we send food?" ”
Fu Youde's face was cold, and he said angrily: "If you don't follow the military order, if you want to make noise again, Lao Tzu will immediately split you alive." ”
Chang Mao saw Fu Youde angry, knowing that if he wanted to be wordy again, he would lose his head, and he was worried about the safety of his uncle Lan Yu, so he simply gritted his teeth and said: Die, die. Hardened his head and his brother Chang Sheng led the army to rush out, and the Chaoyuan army team galloped over.
For a time, on the plain outside Gyeongju City, a huge procession composed of countless torches was like a galloping fire dragon, and the Chaoyuan army with teeth and claws rushed straight towards it. Fifty thousand horses galloped, and the sound shook all over the world.
Lan Yu saw Fu Youde's army launching, and he also rode his horse and waved his sword, leading about 7,000 knights to rush out with torches, but he did not go to meet Fu Youde's army, and outflanked the Yuan army along the city wall.
