Under the blazing fire of the wooden fence deer, the fire soared into the sky, and the sight between the enemy and the enemy could not help but be clear.

Hundreds of Yan soldiers held shields, brandished their swords and finally cut a gap in the southern army camp, surging forward, seeing the enemy troops with strong crossbows arranged in dense turns, out of instinct, they raised their shields to cover their upper bodies, and rushed forward for their lives.

The southern sergeants holding the "Divine Arm Bow" crossbow were divided into two columns, the front squatting on the ground, and the back column standing upright.

With the order of a thousand households of the Southern army, under the huge earthquake of the crossbow arms, the first column of crossbowmen fired the first round of crossbow arrows in a volley towards the height of the enemy's legs, which could not be covered by shields.

The Yan sergeant rushed and his legs were suddenly pierced by powerful crossbow arrows, and he rolled to a single piece, tripping the friendly troops that followed him like a tidal wave.

Seeing that the enemy army was in chaos, the second column of crossbowmen standing in the southern army pulled the bracket in their hands, and shot the Yan soldiers who were in a mess. Many two armor-clad Yan soldiers and thousands of households gave crossbow arrows and armor piercing people, shooting them on the spot, and many Yan soldiers even if they were lucky enough to block the crossbow arrows with their shields in their hands, they also shook the huge and unparalleled force to the ground. It turns out that the extremely powerful crossbow of the divine arm bow was passed down from the Song Dynasty and was designed to restrain the cavalry of the Jin Army. The power exerted under such dozens of steps is by no means defensible to any armor in the world. ”“

When the Yan army that was attacking the camp suffered heavy casualties and was in chaos, the southern army commanded Sheng Yong to lead two southern armies from both flanks with a sword and shield in his hand and killed the enemy.

When Sheng Yong led the army to strangle the enemy, the wooden fence of the camp finally became vulnerable in the raging fire, and thousands of Yan soldiers under the leadership of Zhu Quan finally expanded the gap in the southern army camp, and rushed into the enemy camp like a tide, and the southern army under Sheng Yong's command was killed.

Qu Neng, the governor of the southern army, saw the enemy's attack on a large scale, but there was no panic on his face, and under the roar of the war knife at his waist, he led the dense number of soldiers and generals under his command to rush forward. Although the enemy army is powerful, he also has tens of thousands of troops under him, not to mention that behind his military camp at this moment, there is a large army led by Wu Jie, Marquis of An Lu, who is stationed in the camp, and the reinforcements are coming in an instant, so why be afraid?

At this time, the hand-to-hand combat can be said to be in the enemy, and there is an enemy in me. Artillery, bows and crossbows have long been out of use, and the two armies have engaged in a fierce white-knuckle battle between the burning tents.

Qu Neng didn't know it, so not long after Zhu Di and Zhu Quan led the army to attack, Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng, the generals of the Yan army, had already led 20,000 soldiers and horses on the left and right wings, and attacked by force. The camp of the southern army led by Wu Jie, Marquis of An Lu, was also on fire everywhere, and fell into a bitter battle that was not inferior to him.

In Zhengjiaba Village, after Li Jinglong, the commander of the Southern Army, sat alone in the commander's case, he listened to the Chinese army Sima who was constantly marching into the commander's tent to report the military situation to him, passed the military order with a calm face, and dispatched his troops to reinforce various tight places.

It turned out that Zhu Di knew that his strength was far inferior to that of the imperial army, so he divided the hundreds of thousands of troops that poured out of the nest into several roads during the night attack tonight, each with tens of thousands at most and thousands at least, constantly attacking from the wilderness outside the southern army camp, shooting rockets into the barracks from all directions, making hundreds of thousands of imperial army from the generals and colonels to the soldiers and soldiers all have the feeling of being attacked on all sides, and the grass and trees are all soldiers. The intention is to win in the chaos and break the enemy in one fell swoop.

Just as the fighting was raging in the endless camps of the southern army, and the fierce battle between the two armies was in full swing, the Yan army, which had already quietly come out from another city gate far away from Zhangye Gate in Beiping, was holding torches and rushing to meet the cold wind that rushed in front of them.

Ma Sanbao, who was wearing armor, rode his horse, looked at the enemy camp under the fire in the distance, and led his 20,000 generals and soldiers to rush away. His target can be described as the Longtan Tiger's Den, which is the Zhengjiaba Village where the commander of the Southern Army, Li Jinglong, is located.

The torches in the hands of countless Yan soldiers gathered into a dotted fire dragon, which was spectacular in the dark night, and rushed towards the southern military camp in Zhengjia Village.

Li Jinglong was on a slightly higher hillside outside the tent, and the sound of fighting resounded in the sky in his ears, and he couldn't help but be a little frightened. It turned out that more than 100,000 troops were stationed around Zhengjiaba Village, where his tent was located, during the day. Tonight, the Yan army came to attack in separate ways, it was difficult to distinguish the strength of the Yan army in the dark night, the southern army from the camp outside Beiping City to this place everywhere urgently, as the commander, he had already ordered the army to send a large army to help, at this moment stationed around this place is only 50,000 horses. The sudden attack of the enemy army made him wonder in his heart that it was Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who led the army to attack the camp at this moment, or Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, who killed people without blinking.

It was unfavorable to storm Beiping for several days, and the weather suddenly turned cold under heavy snowfall, which had greatly reduced the morale of the imperial army, which was mostly southerners. Although the Yan army took the initiative to attack in separate ways, it also fell into a bitter battle in the face of the enemy army with strong troops and holding the fortress.

When the dawn loomed, a little snowflake fluttered in the wind, and the general was captured, and Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, only felt a chill welling up in his heart, I don't know if it was because of the whistling north wind or the strong attack of the Yan army all night. The chill that ran through his heart made him lose his bearings completely.

Although the Yan army conquered the outermost camp of Zhengjiaba Village after a fierce battle overnight, the tens of thousands of enemy troops who relied on the camp and did not retreat were also suffering heavy casualties. Ma Sanbao knew that if Li Jinglong identified that he had only this little man in his hands under the dawn, he would inevitably lead the army to launch a counterattack, and if the enemy troops in front came to help, it would be difficult for his tired division to get out, so he immediately ordered the army to retreat slowly, intending to get rid of the enemy army before dawn and withdraw to Beiping.

The lingering sound of earth-shattering fighting finally made Li Jinglong make up his mind and lead his army to retreat south.

The two armies fought fiercely all night, and all suffered heavy casualties, and the most tragic battlefield was Zhu Di, who led tens of thousands of troops to attack, and all supervised Qu Neng, and commanded Sheng Yong to garrison the nearest southern army camp from Beiping.

Although the Yan army had already occupied a small half of the camp, Qu Neng's heart was not chaotic at all, because he knew that only when the sky was bright, the situation would naturally be more conducive to his own side, which was already far superior to the enemy's troops, and immediately ordered his subordinate Sima to hurry back to Zhengjiaba Village, and asked the commander of the army to dispatch 50,000 cavalry under Ping'an to immediately rush to the front, and work together with himself to counterattack and break the enemy in one fell swoop, so that Zhu Di and the army under Zhu Quan could not retreat with all his body.

Zhu Di saw that he still couldn't defeat the strong enemy in front of him after a night of hard fighting, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened, but he was so anxious that he didn't dare to order the withdrawal of the army rashly, but at this moment the two armies were still fighting together, if he ordered the withdrawal in a hurry, he was afraid that he would be defeated by the enemy army taking advantage of the situation to pursue.

At this time, the Yan army scouts from Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng quickly returned from the place where they were fighting, and reported the military situation, saying that the southern army in the rear camp was scattered and gradually retreated.

When Zhu Di heard this, he immediately turned his head to Zhu Quan on the side and said in a deep voice: "Old Seventeen, you immediately turn back to the city and lead all the cavalry to help in the battle." ”

Although Zhu Quan couldn't guess why the southern army retreated, he also knew that this moment was the key to life and death, so he immediately clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and rushed towards the cavalry camp under Beiping City under the "dark clouds covering snow". It turned out that although the cavalry was aggressive, it was useless in the dark night, whether it was the Yanshan guard under Zhu Di or the elite cavalry under the command of Ping An under the command of the Southern Army, they did not participate in the battle last night.

The tall, armoured Southern troops all commanded Ping An to ride their horses at a gallop. Behind him were tens of thousands of cavalry, thousands of horses galloping across the wilderness, stirring up billowing smoke and dust.

Looking at the fierce battle between the two armies in front of him, as the commander of the cavalry, he did not command the whole army to attack and attack on the situation, but said sharply to the next knight of his hand: "You immediately enter the camp and inform the old general Qu that Cao Guogong has led the army to retreat, and the last general is willing to lead the cavalry to break off for the old general, and ask him to lead the army to retreat south." Speaking of this, a sense of grief and indignation in my heart was difficult to suppress. It turned out that he led the army here at this moment, but in order to cooperate with Qu Neng, Sheng Yong counterattacked Zhu Di, as the commander of the army, Li Jinglong led the army to retreat south, which had caused the imperial army to be defeated one after another, and the Yan army general Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng had already broken through the camp of Wu Jie, Marquis of Anlu, from both wings, and took advantage of the situation to cover the front. Thinking of Qu Neng, Sheng Yong was still fighting hard with Zhu Di, and he took it upon himself to lead the army to respond, hoping that in this situation of defeat, the front army would not be lost at the hands of the Yan army.

Qu Neng, Sheng Yong couldn't help but face like ashes after getting the revenge, they never dreamed that Li Jinglong, the commander of the army, who was the commander of the army, would suddenly leave behind hundreds of thousands of soldiers and generals at this critical juncture of the fierce battle between the two armies, and fled in panic.

More than 30,000 cavalry of the Yan army galloped down under the leadership of Zhu Quan and came to the outside of the southern army camp, at this moment the Yan army under Zhu Di and the southern army under Qu Neng were still fighting in the camp, and the cavalry on both sides had no way to start, so they had to face each other from afar, waiting for the best opportunity to attack.

Zhu Di received scouts one after another at this moment, and determined that the commander of the Southern Army, Li Jinglong, would retreat, and Zhu Quan led the army to rush to his heart, and immediately ordered the foot soldiers in the camp to attack forward.

Qu Neng, Sheng Yong knew that the situation of defeat at this moment was by no means recoverable by manpower, so he immediately led the army to fight and leave, and retreated under the cover of the cavalry led by Ping'an.

Zhu Di, Zhu Quan led his soldiers and horses to take advantage of the situation to cover the kill.

In the winter of the first year of Jianwen, the 500,000 counterinsurgency army was finally defeated by the thought of Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo.

At dusk, outside Zhengjiaba Village, 20 miles from Beiping, Ma Sanbao, dressed in armor, rode his horse through the dilapidated southern army camp and headed towards Zhu Di's tent. Seeing that the corpse covered under the thin snow was difficult to distinguish between the enemy and me, and he could no longer distinguish whether it was the Southern Army that was ordered to suppress the rebellion, or the Yan Army who was martyred by Fengtian, his heart couldn't help but feel very heavy. Ma Sanbao is a native of Kunyang, Yunnan, is a descendant of Pingzhang Saidianchi in Yunnan Province of the Yuan Dynasty, in the past Ming Yingguo Gong Fu Youde led the army to pacify Yunnan, swept away the Yuan Dynasty Liang King was captured and sent to the Jingshi Zongren Mansion castrated, as a eunuch. After being disabled, it is inevitable that there is often a sense of self-pity in the heart, and today I saw the corpses of the two armies fighting in the wilderness outside Beiping City, and there was a rare feeling of luck in my heart, after all, I had saved my life through the war, and those countless soldiers on both sides were killed in this battle.

In the tent, Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and others, the generals of the Yan Army, were happily reporting back to Zhu Di the amount of grain and grass they had seized and the number of non-commissioned officers and colonels of the Southern Army.

Zhu Di saw Ma Sanbao enter the tent, and immediately waved his hand to stop the noise of the generals under him, and said: "This time the king was able to break the enemy army, Ma Sanbao attacked Zhengjiaba Village, and beat Li Jinglong like a bird with a frightened bow. Anyway, what reward do you want? This king will not allow anything. The reason why he let Ma Sanbao lead the army to fight was out of the helplessness of the lack of a general who could have henchmen, and he didn't want such an unintentional move to make that gentleman run away, which was really an unexpected joy.

Ma Sanbao recalled the tragic situation of corpses he saw in the daytime, and he really had no intention of receiving gold, silver, and any official position, so he bowed slightly and said: "The villain is lucky to succeed, and it is really nothing compared to the generals who fought hard, and he dare not accept a heavy reward." ”

Zhu Quan, who was sitting on one side, heard Ma Sanbao say that it was a fluke, and recalled the scene of leading the army to fight hard last night, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: Our army really won the extreme luck, if it was Lan Yu, Feng Sheng, and Fu Youde who sat in the southern army's tent last night, I am afraid that when the dawn comes, Zhu Laosi and I will face hundreds of thousands of imperial army troops, and it will be difficult to escape defeat.

Zhu Di saw him shirk his reward, and he couldn't help but feel unhappy in his heart, and his face sank slightly and said: "The reward and punishment are unknown, why does this king let the people in the army obey the public?" Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Zhu Quan, and secretly thought to himself: I don't want this eunuch under Lao Seventeen to have the courage to dare to fight alone and go straight to the tiger's den. After pondering for a while, he said slowly: "Since you led the army to repel Li Jinglong in Zhengjiaba Village, this king will always remember your achievements today, and I hereby grant you to change your surname to Zheng." ”

Ma Sanbao knew that it was extremely disappointing for him to refuse King Yan's reward at this moment, and he didn't want to anger him again, so he immediately bowed down and said: "The villain wishes His Royal Highness will succeed as soon as possible, so that the people of my future can live and work in peace and contentment, avoid being poisoned by the flames of war, and everyone values peace." changed his name to Zheng He today. ”

In the twilight, Zhu Quan stepped out of the tent, looked at the sunset on the horizon, and recalled today's victory for his side, but he did not have the joy of following Lan Yu to sweep away the Golden Horde in the sea of fishing, and only felt that the shouts of the generals of the Yan army in the tent were so far away, thinking back to Xu Ying and his master Qin Zhuofeng, who were far away in Daning, he sighed in his heart: I want to come to Sister Ying, and the master doesn't want to see me wait for such a big victory today.

Zheng He saw a lonely look on his face, thinking that it was because he accepted the name of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and hurriedly said: "The villain ......"

"You must not call yourself a villain again." Zhu Quan smiled and reached out and patted Zheng He's shoulder heavily, interrupting his words.

Zheng He couldn't help but be stunned when he saw him suddenly laugh.
