Chapter 140: One in and one out

A campfire a mile away in the distance, bright and extinguished like stars.

King Yan turned over and got on his horse, and the soldiers behind him also got on their horses, and in the darkness, there was only the sound of the clanging armor and the sound of the blades rubbing against the scabbards.

A long upright knife with a blade swirling in the darkness with the reflection of a campfire like stars in the distance.

King Yan didn't say anything, but lowered his mask. Leaving only a pair of dark holes that can't see the eyes, the long knife points forward, driving the horse. Hasten.

Even though most of the soldiers behind him have been through a hundred battles. At this time, I was also so nervous that I stiffened.

They have not fought without war.

It can be said that today's Ming army is the most experienced group in the Ming Dynasty.

A group of people behind King Yan, led by Qiu Fu, were the predecessors of Jing Nanxun several decades later. And the people brought by Ping'an, these are Feng Sheng's places in Liaodong, and they are also first-class elite generals who dare to fight, and who want to be promoted through meritorious service. As for the soldiers in Zhenbei Pass, although they are not as good as these people, they are also on the front line of the frontier, and they may not have much experience in fighting with the Tartars. But he also has a lot of experience fighting with the Jurchens and even the northeastern tribes.

Most of them have been in battle and killed people.

But they were still a little timid.

Without him, there are too many tartars.

In the darkness, you can't see how many people are on the other side. There was only a blackened camp. The bonfire that is about to overflow the horizon, I don't know how many enemies there are, but I know how many we have. In the face of such an enemy, three thousand people are like a drop of water.

In this case, it is difficult for everyone to have courage.

Just whatever? Their hearts were pounding, and they were almost rushing out of their throats. But there is one thing that is not a problem. As qualified soldiers, as long as they dare to rush from above, they will dare. If you are a general, dare to take the lead. And they dared to follow.

Since ancient times, China has never lacked qualified soldiers.

But there is a lack of generals who dare to take the lead. King Yan dared to take the lead and rushed to the forefront. Even if the soldiers behind are scared to death, they will grit their teeth and follow.

King Yan maintained the speed of the war horse, accelerating little by little. As the speed gets faster and faster, there are also accidents of one kind or another.

Horseback riding is not a very safe speed, and riding a horse in the dark is a very dangerous thing. Even if you are a very experienced cavalryman, it is difficult not to guarantee an accident. Coupled with the wild, the land will not be completely leveled. There are bonfires of this kind and that. Shrubs that suddenly grow out of nowhere, or tree trunks that fall to the ground, are invisible.

So, in the darkness, out of sight of many people, there were one cavalry after another, and even men and horses fell to the ground.

There was only the sound of a heavy fall to the ground, and no one shouted and neighed.

Because before setting off, both horses and people have already been dealt with. A wooden stick is bitten in the mouth. And the horse's mouth is strangled with cloth. Even if you fall to your death, you won't be silent.

However, this could not block the movement of the cavalry raid.

——

Tamen, who had been sleeping in the big tent, suddenly opened his eyes, and instead of lying on the bed, he was lying on a blanket with a hollow pillow, which was actually a small trick. When a horse's hooves step on the earth, there will be an echo.

Hollow solid wood pillows, on the other hand, amplify this echo.

Detainted Timur was all too familiar with this sound. He jumped almost reflexively. Putting his armor on his body, he shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack." ”

It's just that the reaction of the decaffeinated Timur was too late.

At this moment, in the middle of the camp perimeter, there is a thin fence. This kind of fence is not used to stop people at all. Rather, it is used to keep cattle out. Circle the horses and the flocks that accompany them. At this moment, King Yan didn't dare to look at it at all, and as soon as he pulled the reins, the whole person jumped up. Leap over the fence. Facing the endless Mongolian fort, King Yan rushed up alone.

A great chaos arose.

It's like a basin of water spilled into a pan of oil, crackling.

At this time, the reaction speed of the Mongolian cavalry was really shown.

That is, there is no reaction speed.

Tayin Timur expanded his army and recruited a large number of herdsmen into the army. This certainly expands the momentum. But the original elite strength of the Yuan Dynasty was diluted again.

Yes, the Mongols are all soldiers, and that is because the Mongols have many overlapping skills in warfare and nomadism, warfare and life. This overlap saved the Mongol cavalry a lot of training time. Almost pull it up, and you're ready to go.

However, being able to go into battle is different from the elite.

In general, the difference between the two is not very apparent. Really show the difference between the elite and the ordinary army. It's reaction time when you encounter a raid. This point, even in later generations, is an important label that can measure the army.

It's the same today.

These Mongol cavalrymen cannot be blamed.

Because of these qualities, you must go through rigorous training. It's not just a matter of pulling herdsmen to the battlefield.

It was precisely because of this that King Yan took his headquarters and rushed out to kill him. Killed the Mongol camp thoroughly. When King Yan turned around, he found that in the middle of the Mongolian camp, there was a large chaotic area, and countless flames were burning.

King Yan turned around and looked, although in the dark, he couldn't see that there were not many people missing.

Ping An said: "His Royal Highness King Yan, do you want to withdraw now?" ”

If he came by himself, he would naturally kill a three-in and three-out. But the problem is, King Yan is here. You're welcome, such a large fighter. His peace is folded here, and the imperial court is indispensable to posthumously award a title. For the sake of this title, Ping An doesn't mind exchanging his life for it.

But King Yan is different, King Yan is folded here, and Ping An can't imagine what the consequences will be.

Therefore, he actually knew that King Yan would not withdraw. But he still had to ask.

King Yan didn't look at him at all, his gaze swept over the audience, his gaze stared, and he saw a camp. A group of Mongol cavalry was gathering. King Yan pointed at the long knife and said, "Soldiers, go with Gu again." ”

Qiu Fu said loudly: "The last general is willing to be the first of His Highness. Immediately, Qiu Fu didn't wait for King Yan to speak, and rushed out first. Peace followed.

Qiu Fu didn't have so many eyes in his heart. Qiu Fu knew that the honor and disgrace of his life were on King Yan. King Yan must not make mistakes. Before, King Yan took the lead, which was to boost morale, after this experience. The morale was greatly shaken, and the soldiers did not feel that the Tartars had anything to fear.

There is no need for King Yan to continue to take the lead.

Not to mention, the first wave was a surprise attack, and the Tartars did not react, and the biggest problem was not actually the enemy's resistance, but the obstacles on the way. Falling a horse on the battlefield is not a joke, but if you fall a horse, it is the same whether you are in front or behind.

And with the level of Yan Wang's riding skills, it is said that it is unparalleled in the world, which is naturally fake. But there is no problem with saying that the world's best rider is the best.

To say that King Yan will not make mistakes at all is false. And this kind of riding master mistake is difficult to predict.

Now it's different, the Tartars have been organized. This time, the backflush will definitely not be as smooth as before.

So Qiu Fu and others took the lead. Rush through again.

——

Causeless Timur had never felt so burned.

Detain Timur fought a lifetime of battles, well, to put it mildly, a lifetime of defeat. There is too much experience in defeating battles. Being raided is also among them. How to deal with the raid, the causeless Timur is the experience and the way to deal with it.

It's just that the decaffeinated Timur could. But his generals were not.

Fighting a war is never a one-man affair.

had to let the veteran Timur, who was detached, personally go into battle and organize people, which brought up more than 10,000 people, and before he could arrange it, Deyin Timur heard countless exclamations and shouts of killing. Deyin Timur saw that the Ming army behind him reflexively killed back.

Decalyptic Timur felt a lot of pain in his old back for a moment. His shoulders stiffened, and he estimated that the use of long knives and spears was not neat.

There is no way, the real martial arts are never martial arts, and they do not exist the older they get. The higher the martial arts. Don't talk about him, it's just his old rival, Feng Sheng got it, and the two sides are also half a catty.

No one says anyone.

The only thing that's not the same. Feng Sheng has long passed the age of going into battle in person, and Feng Sheng's command can fight and fight on the battlefield, and grab a lot of them. And Tayin Timur could only go into battle in person at this age and organize a counteroffensive.
