In fact, the local Tusi can't be blamed, because Zhu Gaoxu's soldiers are very fast, and every time he goes to a place, he first uses cavalry to block the gate of the county and state to prevent people from sending news, and then discusses cooperation with the local Tusi.

He attaches equal importance to grace and power, and has benefits for everyone, and everyone is naturally willing to cooperate with King Han.

At this time, the sky was just dawning, and two hundred steps away from the three city gates of Nanning Mansion, a large number of Tusi soldiers were digging earth and building walls.

This trick Zhu Gaoxu learned from the Later Jin, at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty, when Huang Taiji fought Jinzhou, he learned to dig ditches and build walls, and the water around Jinzhou was blocked, and the Ming army could not come out at all, so they could only defend until the food was exhausted and surrendered.

Now the casualties of the siege are quite large, and Nanning Mansion has the largest Nanning guard in Guangxi, with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses garrisoned, so Zhu Gaoxu came up to block the door first, and then built a large number of buildings outside the city, dug ditches and built walls, and first ensured that Nanning Wei had a horse, and not a single soldier could run out.

Nanningwei participated in the entire Jingnan, and many veterans must find a way to recruit them.

"Grass" Tan Qing looked at the busy Tusi soldiers and horses, and immediately shouted: "You can't let them dig down anymore, gather, gather the soldiers and horses." ”

The city quickly gathered soldiers and horses.

At this time, Tan Qing knew that it was no longer time to think about fighting back at the Hengzhou Elephant Guard, but to consider breaking through and escaping.

But he gave an order last night, early this morning, the soldiers and horses of Wuyuan and the mahout guard will also fight back at Li Yuan in Hengzhou, and it will definitely be even worse at that time.

But he didn't care about anyone else now, he only thought about how he could escape.

Outside Nanning Mansion is the Yujiang River, and on the river it will be full of the boats of the local Tusi Huang, unloading some of the baggage and cannons of the rebel army.

In order to surprise and achieve the purpose of the raid, Tan Qing was not allowed to find out.

Zhu Gaoxu's cannon first boarded the boat from Tianzhou's Cen Tusi, went down to Youjiang in Long'an County, took the land route, relied on men and horses to pull it, and then bypassed Hejiang Town.

Then re-board the ship and transport it to Nanning Province.

However, most of the artillery had to go along the waterway in the direction of Guilin, so only ten guns were unloaded this time.

At this time, the Nanning Mansion was already gathering soldiers and horses.

Tan Qing gathered all the soldiers and horses and raided them at three gates, and there were only 3,000 cavalry in the city, so he concentrated all the 3,000 cavalry at the north gate.

He also said that after breaking through, the various departments retreated in the direction of Guilin and gathered in Guilin.

The generals took orders one after another.

But it will take time for more than 10,000 people to assemble.

Before Tan Qing's cavalry could assemble, suddenly there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves outside, and then swishing, from all sides of Nanning City, more than a hundred arrows were shot into the city.

Tan Qing no longer planned to defend the city, so there were few soldiers and horses on the city wall, and no one cared, watching the rebel army approach the city wall, and then shoot arrows in.

The text that followed the arrow quickly arrived in Tan Qing's hand.

Although Tan Qing was illiterate, his subordinates were literate, and after reading it to him, his face suddenly changed greatly, and after a while, almost everyone in the city knew the content of the inscription, and the soldiers of Nanning Wei also talked about it.

Zhu Gaoxu's essay basically wrote all the evil things that Zhu Di had done and not done, including the battle of Nanningwei under the city of Zhending, saying that after the war, Zhu Di forced Nanningwei to surrender, and those who did not surrender were killed, and they were directly beheaded, and many Nanningwei's brothers died tragically.

Tan Qing's face was pale, and he was about to say something when someone on the wall shouted at him.

After he went up to the wall, he found that Jin Rong, the former commander of Nanning Wei, was riding a horse and circling along Nanning City, shouting as he turned: "Nanningwei's brothers, I am Jin Rong, come down, follow the King of Han, rebel and fight evil, avenge Nanningwei's tragic death, and kill Zhu Di——"

"Shoot him, shoot him with arrows, what are you waiting for?" Tan Qing shouted angrily.

The soldiers around him hurriedly took arrows, but Jin Rong was circling the city wall, and it was not easy for the infantry to chase on it, and it was not easy to shoot it.

The key is that Tan Qing is ready to organize all the soldiers and horses to break through, and there are not many people on the city wall.

Whoosh, Xi Xi's falling arrow did not hit Jin Rong, many soldiers may know Jin Rong, that Jin Rong was originally seventy or eighty steps, and when he saw that the arrow was not accurate, he became more and more bold, ran closer and closer, and finally almost ran to the city and shouted.

When Jin Rong was the commander of Nanning Wei, he had a good reputation, and after the battle of Zhending was also desperately decided, many old Nanning Wei troops in the city were there.

What he shouted outside the city, the horse was transmitted to the city, and soldiers and horses were gathered everywhere in the city, and the mood of the soldiers was even more complicated.

Tan Qing knew that something was wrong, and in the Jing Disaster, there were many things for the Yan army to open the city gate, so Jin Rong couldn't be allowed to continue to call it like this.

Or rather, he couldn't wait any longer.

Tan Qing didn't care about Jin Rong, and hurriedly ran down the city tower, the three thousand cavalry downstairs had already gathered about two thousand five hundred, and there were still a few hundred horsemen who had not yet arrived.

"Don't wait for them, let's go, let's rush from the north gate."

Tan Qing turned over and got on the horse, Wang Shengxia hurriedly followed, and immediately ordered after he got on the horse, and now no matter how many steps each department gathered, he immediately rushed out.

Regardless of them, boom, rushed out with more than 2,000 horsemen.

As soon as Tan Qing left, the rest of the people in the city were in chaos, some people wanted to surrender, some people wanted to rush, and after a while, all the three gates in the city were opened, and the chaotic officials and soldiers rushed out.

Tan Qing led more than 2,000 horsemen to rush out of the north gate.

The reason why he decided to break through was that he didn't see cavalry in the rebel army just now.

Tan Qing also thought that coming from Yunnan was full of mountain roads, which were very difficult to walk, and it was normal for the soldiers and horses of the Han King to come from here, and it was unlikely that there would be cavalry.

But he himself forgot that fighting a war requires the use of his brains, and who said that if you don't see cavalry, you don't have cavalry?

Tan Qing rushed out of the north gate first, and saw from a distance that the Tusi soldiers were still digging a pit: "Rush, kill them all." ”

He smirked and shouted, and the officers and soldiers began to speed up and gallop away.

There were only a few thousand Tusi soldiers on the opposite side, and when they saw the officers and soldiers rushing out, they retreated one after another to avoid it.

There are already a small number of ditches and walls on the ground, but the ditches are still shallow and the walls are still low.

After Tan Qing ran closer, he obviously saw a few shallow ditches of about twenty inches in front of him, and thought to himself that it was fortunate that I broke through quickly, which made the local soldiers dig for another day and a half, and the cavalry could not come out.

"Rush." Tan Qing didn't care about the ditch on the ground, and ordered the charge.

Plopped, the striker stepped directly into the ditch, fell with a bang, and then, bang, bang, rows of cavalry fell to the ground.

But more cavalry rushed out anyway.

This ditch is few and shallow, so everyone looks at luck, bad luck, just when the horse's hooves step on the ditch, it will fall, if you are lucky, just step over, it will be fine.

Tan Qing's cavalry probably lost hundreds of horses, and most of them still rushed over.

After rushing over, I saw two phalanxes on the left and right sides of the front.

The Tusi soldiers were densely gathered, and in front of them were all spears, and the muzzles of the guns were forty-five degrees outward, like hedgehogs.

This infantry pike-formation was currently the best means of dealing with cavalry.

Wang Shengxia immediately followed: "General, don't rush, let's go." ”

Tan Qing looked up unwillingly, and farther away, the local soldiers were slowly moving towards this side.

If more native soldiers come to the scene, they really won't be able to escape.

There was about a hundred and fifty paces in the middle of the two squares on the opposite side.

At this point, he could choose not to take the middle of the gap and bypass the infantry phalanx from a distance.

Because people with a little brain will also think that there must be a problem with the other side using two infantry phalanxes on the left and right sides, leaving an opening in the middle.

But Tan Qing didn't have time to think about it, and he saw more phalanxes in the distance leaning towards this side, if he went around the distance, he was likely to be blocked by other phalanxes.

"Go, rush out." Tan Qingyi gritted his teeth and decided not to entangle with these native soldiers, it was better to flee for his life first.

His more than 2,000 horses were like a giant dragon, and he frantically drilled into the middle opening.

But as he got closer, his face suddenly changed.

I saw that on the ground in front of me, one by one, a large number of tripwires lay across the ground.

The rebels nailed two iron rods to the ground and tied ropes at both ends.

One every twenty steps, criss-crossed, dense, everywhere.

Just now, the toasts were digging a trench in front, and they were too far away to see that someone behind them had actually nailed iron rods to the ground and used tripping ropes.

"Phew." Tan Qing hurriedly reined in the horse and slowed down.

But many people did not have time to land, some did not even see it, boom, a large number of cavalry rushed up, and then flew up one by one.

"Huh" A war horse let out a cry of pain, pounced, and landed heavily on the ground with people and horses.

There were also people who flew out dozens of paces away, and when they fell to the ground, they were already in pieces.

"Shameless." Tan Qing scolded, who fights so without martial virtue, the King of Han is simply inferior to a pig and a dog.

This kind of indiscriminate thing, I haven't used it in the war.

"To the northeast, rush into the formation." Tan Qing hurriedly gave the order to rush the infantry formation first, and then rush out after breaking the infantry formation.

The rebels had a phalanx on each of them, each of which numbered about one or two thousand men, and he chose the northeast phalanx to fight.

In fact, if he let the cavalry continue to charge forward regardless of casualties, the tripping rope in front of him will soon be exhausted, because basically as soon as the horse collides and the horse falls, the tripping rope will be useless.

In this era, there are no important tools, and time is limited, so the depth of the iron rod to the ground is limited, and it is not bumped.

But although it was not hit, after being arranged on the ground, it was very scary, and the cavalry looked hairy.

There are more than 1,000 native soldiers in the northeast, and the leader is Nashi Nachuan.

Na Chuan followed Zhu Gaoxu to fight Annan, and the formation and playing style were also according to Zhu Gaoxu.

At this time, there were twenty platoons in their whole army, and each platoon was about eighty people.

The front five rows are all pikemen, and according to Zhu Gaoxu's way, the ones built are 20 centimeters longer than the spears of the Ming army.

It is very unreasonable for cavalry to charge this kind of infantry formation.

But Tan Qing didn't have a choice, either go to the middle, there will be a stumbling horse, or go around to the distance, but there are more phalanxes in the distance.

The rebel army was at least tens of thousands of people at the north city gate, and there were seven or eight phalanxes.

If Tan Qing dragged on for a longer time, the easier it would be to be surrounded by these seven or eight phalanxes, and it would be difficult to fly when the time came.

So he could only bite the bullet and hit the phalanx in front of him first.

The opposite side was originally pressing forward step by step, but when he saw Tan Qing rushing towards them in the middle, Na Chuan immediately ordered to stop.

Bang, the local soldiers here have not been trained in the queue, they stopped and swallowed slowly, and the movements did not stop, but they still stopped quickly.

"Compact point, compact point." Na Chuan shouted loudly in Dai language.
