Seeing Fu Youde's army rushing towards him, Nahachu checked the speed of the torches, turned over to the ground, listened to the violent vibration from the ground, and said in a daze: After the tens of thousands of Ming troops rested, the horses were extremely fast, and the combat power was not weak. Turning his head and seeing Lan Yu's department, he didn't go to meet Fu Youde's reinforcements, but went to copy his own back road, and his heart suddenly sank, and he thought: Guolai's 30,000 elites have all died in Qingzhou City, if I have 80,000 elites under my command today, and then I have a miserable victory with about 60,000 men and horses of the Ming army, how can I gain a foothold in Liaodong in the future? Thinking of this, he didn't dare to take the risk of fighting hard with Fu Youde's army, and immediately issued a military order for the whole army to retreat under the leadership of their respective generals.

He held this place steadily, but he wanted to wait for work and deal with the tired army from afar, but he didn't know that at this time, the Ming Dynasty reinforcements were not only huge, but also marched rapidly, and there was no fatigue at all, and there was no certainty of easy victory in his heart. I secretly hated in my heart: This person is really cunning, obviously there are no less than 50,000 horses, but he deliberately only lit half of the torches, which made me think that the military strength was superior, luring our army to fight to the death.

Fu Youde saw that the withdrawal of Nahachu's army was not in a hurry, and it was obvious that he still had doubts in his heart, so he simply did not give the order to withdraw the troops.

Seeing that the enemy seemed unwilling to fight to the death, Chang Mao became bold, so he also hurried his horse, howled wildly in the quiet night, and led his army to chase after Nahachu's headquarters. Fu Youde and Lan Yu's more than 30,000 Ming troops, at the beginning of the impact, seeing the enemy's army growing, this was a little afraid, at this time, seeing the enemy retreating, it seemed to be cowardly, under Chang Mao's roar, all of them drove the momentum, while riding a horse to attack, while screaming and rushing to kill the past, the momentum is like a rainbow.

The 80,000 horses of the Yuan army have been under the city of Gyeongju today, and they have learned the Ming army under Lan Yu, like a wolf and a tiger.

Nahachu saw that the army's heart was in turmoil, but the morale of the Ming army was high, and he knew that he could not do anything, sighed, led the crowd to retreat quickly, and ran out for more than ten miles, but did not see the Ming army chasing after him, so he stopped his horse and looked back.

Seeing that the Yuan army had retreated repeatedly, Fu Youde did not care much about himself, and ordered the troops to turn their horses' heads, strictly ordered not to hurry, and slowly retreated, heading towards Gyeongju.

Chang Mao rode his horse back, turned his head to look at the place where the Yuan army torches gathered more than ten miles away, and couldn't help sighing, and said: No wonder Lao Fu was able to fight from Gansu to Mobei when the army was less than 10,000 in the past, and then fight back to Gansu, seven battles and seven victories, and capture several times the Yuan army. Today, I know that he is so capable of bluffing people, 25,000 men and horses, chasing 70,000 or 80,000 others.

Seeing that Fu Youde's army stopped, Lan Yu slowly turned back, his heart moved, and he ordered the army to turn around, but also slowly retreated, without showing a trace of panic, and slowly converged with Fu Youde's reinforcements, heading towards the city of Gyeongju.

Zhu Quan and Xu Ying rode their horses to Fu Youde's side, and under the light of the torches, they saw the Ming soldiers from the Chang family brothers down, and they were all tied to a war horse loaded with grain and grass behind the horse, holding torches, so they felt afraid. Zhu Quan pondered: The old man is bold, looking at his leadership, I am afraid that there are more than 20,000 and less than 30,000, plus Lan Yu's cavalry, which is less than half of Nahachu, and he is actually putting on a desperate posture to chase others.

Fu Youde led the army back to the city of Gyeongju and gave an order to Lan Yu: "Surrender all the cavalry under your command to the commander, you go into the city to mobilize foot soldiers to carry grain and grass, burn fires in the city for warmth, do not set up tents, and leave all the tents I brought outside the city." ”

Fu Youde was the deputy commander of the expeditionary army. Lan Yu bowed down to receive the order, entered the city, and asked Wang Bi to lead the soldiers out of the city to carry grain and grass into the city.

Wang Bi saw Fu Youde bring the grain and grass abandoned by his army, and his heart was relieved and overjoyed. The Ming army in the city saw that the reinforcements not only forced the enemy to retreat, but also came with grain and grass, and they were all in high spirits.

Zhu Quan and Xu Ying stood outside the city, seeing that Fu Youde ordered all the tents abandoned by Lan Yu's camp last night to be densely packed with the tents carried by his own army, they couldn't help but wonder: "Our army has more than 20,000 foot soldiers to rest in the city, but do we need to set up so many tents outside the city?" ”

Fu Youde smiled when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Nahachu is a general of the Yuan Court, he is cunning and suspicious by nature, although he is unwilling to fight to the death with our army tonight, but he has 70,000 or 80,000 troops under his command, and he is bound to be unwilling to lose Gyeongju, and he will not go away." Oriental || .com Our military strength is still weak at this time, and we must not show weakness, we must put on a posture and fight him." ”

Half an hour later, in the handsome tent outside the city, Fu Youde sat upright, surrounded by Zhu Quan, Lan Yu, Wang Bi and the Chang family brothers.

Fu Youde saw that Lan Yu had finished packing up the grain and grass, so he immediately ordered: "After all the war horses are fed, they will be tied between the camp tents, and all the cavalry will rest in the camp tents outside the city. Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and continued: "Are there enough arrows in the city?" He knew that in the absence of firearms, the bow and crossbow were the only sharp weapons to defend the city, and the blue jade army abandoned artillery and firearms, and guarded Gyeongju for a long time.

Wang Bi bowed down when he heard this: "Back to the deputy marshal, today's Nahachu army of 80,000 has a lot of arrows into the city, and after his army retreated a little, his subordinates have ordered the soldiers to collect as many arrows as possible at this time, there are about 150,000 at this time, and the grain and grass are enough for three days." ”

Fu Youde heard that the arrows were enough, he put his mind at ease, and said with a smile: "So very good, Feng Shuai's army has already set off from Tongzhou, tonight's army will rest for a night, if the Yuan army comes to attack tomorrow, all the cavalry will be commanded by me personally, and they will swim outside the city and attack, Lan Yu, Wang Bi will lead the foot soldiers to help each other on the city wall, defend Gyeongju, and wait for Feng Shuai's army to arrive." After that, he was about to give an order to let the generals go back to rest, and turned his head to see the questioning look on Zhu Quan's face, and thought: Your Majesty asked King Ning and King Yan to come with the army, and he wanted the two of them to experience training with the army, and lead the army to fight with the Yuan army in the future, so he simply took the opportunity to explain to him, thinking of this, he smiled and asked Zhu Quan: "Your Highness feels that today's old man led less than 30,000 horses to rush and kill 780,000 horses of Nahachu, which is too risky?" ”

Zhu Quan couldn't help but bow his head slightly when he heard this.

"Your Highness follows the Blue Jade Army, and I think I have already fought against the Yuan Army, dare to ask what the Yuan Army is best at?" Fu Youde asked.

Zhu Quan recalled that when the blue jade army encountered a night attack, he chased and killed the centurion of the Yuan army, but he was embarrassed by his running and shooting style, and couldn't help but say: "These Tartars have superb riding skills and powerful bows and arrows, so naturally they like to ride away and shoot opponents with bows and arrows." ”

Fu Youde nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, these nomadic tribes are the best at riding and archery, but they don't like to fight with us in close quarters, but in the dark night, bows and arrows can't exert such strong lethality as during the day." ”

Zhu Quan recalled the spectacular torch procession of Nahachu's army, suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Just ask if you hold a torch in one hand and swing a knife in the other hand, but it is difficult to open a bow and release arrows. ”

Fu Youde smiled and said: "That's right, the cavalry army is the most roundabout and agile, and it is improvised. If the soldiers are not holding torches, it will be difficult for the commander to form a formation and dispatch in time in the dark night. If you fight with us with a torch, you will suffer a great loss. Speaking of this, he stood up and paced back and forth for two steps, Huo Ran turned around and said categorically: "Old Fu guessed today, Naha Chu is cunning and steady by nature, and he doesn't dare to gamble with us. Although he is entrenched in Liaodong, the population is limited after all, if we lose a miserable victory, we will lose tens of thousands of horses and horses, without hurting our muscles and bones, if he loses his elite subordinates, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in Liaodong. So in today's battle, Lao Fu gambled that Nahachu lacked confidence and couldn't afford to lose. ”

Zhu Quan listened to his explanation, his heart was shocked, and he suddenly remembered that in the previous world, when he followed coach Li Zheng to practice taekwondo, he learned the psychology and tactics of the game, the two opponents clashed on the field, and the battle of the heart was particularly important. Today, Nahachu can't see the reality of Fu Youde's military strength in the dark night, and can only estimate it by hearing the horses running, mistakenly thinking that Fu Youde and Lan Yu have a total of nearly 60,000 cavalry, and more importantly, he has a limited population and military strength, and if he is defeated, he does not dare to fight to the death with the "60,000 Ming Army" in the night, and has the idea of retaining his strength, so he naturally has to retreat. Thinking of this, I was very emotional in my heart, and said: It seems that the confrontation between the two armies cannot only look at the comparison of the strength of the army itself, but also take into account the population, national strength, grain, grass and logistics of both sides, grasp the psychological weaknesses of the other side, and the battle of attacking the heart is the most important. If it is only a war polemic, it is too narrow-minded.

There was nothing to do all night, and at dawn on the second day, the commander of the Yuan army, Nahachu, led his subordinates to "Wuliangha" three guard generals and the commander of ten thousand horses, Hailanda, on the distant hillside to watch the city of Gyeongju from afar, only to see that the camp tent outside the city was endless, and tens of thousands of war horses were all tied to the camp tent.

Nahachu knew some Chinese characters, and when he saw this, he naturally knew who the chief general of the Ming army was, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, and said: "Last night, the Ming army came to the rescue from afar, and they were not in a hurry or impatient, but they even deliberately showed me weakness and deliberately deceived me on the torches, making me think that there were only 20,000 or 30,000 reinforcements, luring my army to fight to the death." It turned out that Fu Youde, the old man, personally stepped out, but fortunately I didn't fall for him. Seeing that the Ming army was strong, backed by a strong city, and with blue jade, Fu Youde, two extremely difficult figures, knew that if they did not pay a heavy price, it would be difficult for Gyeongju to recapture, and after weighing the pros and cons, they had to lead a group of dejected subordinate soldiers to withdraw the army away.
