Chapter 133 took a sharp turn and fell sharply

Although he did not feel that the Mongolian cavalry under his command was inferior to the cavalry of the Ming army, he had to admit that the cavalry of the Ming army had considerable combat effectiveness. The two sides fought fiercely. Win or lose, there will be heavy casualties.

And the Mongols really can't afford to lose.

And now in his hands. Claimed to be 200,000 cavalry. In fact, it's already all men.

Many of them are already gray-haired. Older than him. But what's the solution? Don't fight, wait for death. Fight, now die.

He can do it. It is to survive in death.

Taeki Timur was not opposed to peace talks, but he knew that all negotiations were based on strength. He exerted pressure on the Ming army on the greatest scale. So that the Ming Dynasty knows that the strength of his Yuan Dynasty still exists. Weighing the pros and cons, it is better to negotiate than to fight. A peace agreement between the two sides can be reached.

How can we put the greatest pressure on the Ming army, if we can pull out Changchun Fort, it will naturally be better.

But is it possible?

Decausinated Timur knew that it was impossible.

Maybe if you attack it at the beginning, it will be possible to take it. But now that the Ming army has been operating for several years, it is impossible to fight it. Even if it is really defeated, it will lose a lot. So, he chose another path. That is to avoid the real and attack the false.

As mentioned earlier, there are neither side walls nor the Great Wall in Liaodong today. But with the help of natural terrain. It only forms a line of defense with the Liao River.

There are gaps, and there are breakthroughs that can be made.

Tayin Timur also knew that Liaodong had prospered in recent years. He didn't go to fight Changchun Fort. Directly into the hinterland of Liaodong, turning Liaodong upside down. The best result is that some people can be captured and sent back. The second best result, Liaodong's vitality was greatly damaged, affecting the deployment of troops.

Give the Yuan court a few years.

Of course, it was not without risk for Tamur to do so.

The biggest risk is nothing else.

It's just that he left behind several guards of the Ming army, and he really thinks that all the people in this city are dead? Stuck in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, it is easy to get in, but it is difficult to get out.

It's just that now Timur has a bad deck of cards in his hand, and there are not many ways he can choose to play, so how can he do it if he doesn't make dangerous moves?

Yan Wang is facing such a situation.

He had expected to face a fierce battle. Who knows, the Mongols went around the back. There are not many soldiers and horses in the hands of King Yan. More than 5,000 people to defend Changchun Fort is enough. But went out of the city to pursue the Mongols. It happened to fall for the calculations of the Mongols.

The Mongols did not use this method less when they fought in the war. Going around the city, if the guards go out of the city to pursue and intercept, they will naturally eat people. A city that is not guarded by no one has no effect. If it doesn't matter, then they really go straight in. Without rear support, a city cannot be held for long.

This is the truth of the lonely city.

In short, a dilemma.

King Yan pondered for a long time and said, "Peace." ”

Ping An said: "The end will be." ”

King Yan said: "To select the warriors in the army, I want a thousand people who dare to die." Come with me out of town. ”

Ping An said: "Your Highness, this must not be. Your Highness, how can you do such a thing. If Your Highness sits here, I will choose warriors to go out of the city. ”

King Yan said: "No, it's just a small battle. It's not hard for me. I've made up my mind. Obey orders. ”

Ping An hesitated for a long time, and could only bow his head and say, "Yes." But Your Highness, please allow the general to follow. ”

King Yan said: "Then who will Changchun Fort hand over?" ”

Ping An said: "It is up to His Highness to deal with, if I don't fight with His Highness." After this battle, I am afraid that the last general will not have any good fruit to eat. I also ask for your forgiveness. ”

King Yan laughed. He knew that Ping An was right.

King Yan has confidence in himself.

King Yan has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he doesn't dare to say how powerful he is, but if he walks around the battlefield a few times, there will be no problems. Not to mention the guards in his hands, as well as the soldiers of the Changchun Guard, are all elite soldiers. The armor is complete and the weapons are sharp. Even if it was surrounded by tens of thousands of Mongols. You can also kill three in and three out.

Of course, that's not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that King Yan can't swallow this breath.

If he watched his enemies leave him behind. He did nothing, and he would not be convinced in any way.

And public opinion will also be unfavorable to him, after all, the spirit of the founding of the Ming Dynasty is still there, everyone admires heroes, despises bears, and sees that the enemy does not dare to engage in battle, so he retreats and guards himself. It will only be said to be cowardly. Rather than being old-fashioned.

And if Ping An is in deep danger for the prince, then Ping An, the commander, no matter who is the backer, will not have any future in the future. The choice of peace is also a last resort.

King Yan said, "Zhang Yu. ”

Zhang Yu immediately stepped out and said, "The last general." ”

King Yan said: "You stay here, no matter what happens, I want to see that the banner of the Ming Dynasty is on Changchun Fort." ”

Zhang Yu said: "My subordinates understand. The subordinates asked His Highness to take an extra thousand people away, and this Changchun Fort only needs three thousand people. There are also many Ding Zhuang people who can be dispatched. ”

King Yan pondered for a moment, Zhang Yu was his right-hand man in the military. Yan Wang believed in Zhang Yu's guarantee. And a thousand horsemen is just too little. Said: "Okay then. Just do what you want. ”

Zhang Yu said: "The meaning of the last general, please leave the city quickly." ”

King Yan said, "What do you mean? ”

Zhang Yu said: "The last general beware of Governor He. ”

King Yan suddenly changed color when he heard this. He said to himself, "No." He Xi wouldn't be so unlucky. And He Xi is still on the boat. Take the waterway. Probably nothing. ”

But I don't know how. Yan Wang felt that his eyelids kept jumping. There was a sense of foreboding.

------

Fortunately, King Yan's hunch was not too accurate.

He Xi did not encounter the most unlucky situation.

He brought more than 1,000 guards, all of whom were elite soldiers in a hundred battles. After all, He Xi has never had a temporary cost in strengthening his own protection. The soldiers on this ship were all in armor, with chain mail inside, iron armor in the middle, and cloth armor on the outside, or cotton armor. The weapons in his hands include a long knife or a spear. Shields and other conventional weapons were each equipped with cavalry crossbows, and a considerable number of soldiers were also equipped with firearms. There were more than 300 firebolts.

As for the guns on board.

Because of the canal, there are no big boats here. Cannons can't be used on this ship, otherwise once the cannon is fired, the enemy will not be killed. His own ship sank first. That's embarrassing.

However, although there is this level of guard, He Xi is not without danger, they are dangerous in one point, that is, the canal is too narrow, how narrow it is. It was the kind of distance that a Mongol cavalry could jump into a ship with men and horses.

This puddle of water can't stop anything.

Fortunately, there are no dangers along the way.

He Xi encountered three attacks, and the last one had about three or four thousand horsemen involved. At that time, arrows rained down, and the Ming army's firearms and Mongol bows and arrows were fired across a few meters of river ditches. He Xi naturally hid below deck. Outside, you can only hear the sound of snatching, which represents the sound of arrows shooting on the plank. Boom and boom in the back, it was naturally the sound of fire guns firing.

After the third siege, it seems that these Mongols knew that He Xi was not easy to gnaw.

On the other hand, it seems that the canal has come to an end. It flows into the Liao River.

Although it is the upper reaches of the Liao River, the river channel is not too wide. But it's much stronger than the canal dug manually. At least the Mongol cavalry never thought about it again, and they let He Xi go if they wanted to rush to the ship.

However, He Xi was not happy that he was safe. Instead, the whole person frowned.

There is no other reason, in He Xi's view, the industrial system being built in Liaodong is something more important than his own life. He secretly said in his heart: "It's careless." I didn't expect rabbits to bite when they were in a hurry, let alone the country of ten thousand times. The Yuan Dynasty has some background in the end. I don't know what other places are like. ”

He Xi actually attaches great importance to the safety of important industries. In the vicinity of Shenyang, the industrial and mining cities were built separately. But there are still a lot of places that are not much protected. If the Tartars are allowed to run rampant, then there will be big trouble.

At this time, he can't do anything.

All you can do is believe in your subordinates, believe in Yao Guangxiao, Wu Gao, believe in Liu Jing, and others. Even if he's not there, there's a perfect solution.
