Chapter 343, gains and losses, costs
beheaded the Great Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but Fei Hong said that it was a pity, naturally because there was still an unexpected end to this battle.
At this moment, in the red castle that had just been cleaned up and was still like ruins, Yang Yiqing and Wang Xian advised in unison: "Your Majesty, let's go back to Xuanfu quickly, and beware of me answering and returning." ”
Zhu Houxi nodded, and then sighed: "This answer is the real henchman of the Ming Dynasty!" ”
He lowered his head, looked at Li Jin, He Quanan and the generals who had died in battle, and clenched his fists.
A deputy general of Datong, a brave general who has really entered Zhu Houxi's field of vision from the border generals in the team of border generals over the years.
A wise and brave figure in the brocade guard, and also a promising person.
The first generals to arrive at Zhen'anbao, including the defenders of Zhen'anbao, were almost completely killed and wounded.
Zhu Qi, who arrived later, is now also seriously injured.
Fu Duo, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, was not only injured but also invaded by the poisonous smoke of the mountain fire, and was still unconscious at this moment.
All of this was first because Yan Chunsheng shot Bodi in the eye with an arrow and the arrow went into the back of the head of the Tartar's crazy breakthrough, but at that time, Zhu Qi and Li Quanli arrived one after another, and the scene was still annihilated.
Because later, more Ming troops will arrive one after another.
This breakout battle, starting from Body's abandonment of the Red Castle, lasted for a day and a night.
But Alta reappeared at dusk the next day. After he had withdrawn, he spent several days making a great circle, from the dam to the east of Zhen'anbao, to rescue his faithful and obedient Venerable Khan, with whom he had taken ten thousand horsemen.
So Zhen'an Fort was still breached, and Zhu Qi could only retreat from Zhen'an Fort to the south of the hill to hold on and try to kill the enemy.
In this battle, the Ming Dynasty left nearly 6,000 soldiers here - those who died in battle, those who inhaled poisonous smoke during the journey, those who fell behind and encountered wild beasts that were manic due to mountain fires, or those who fell to death, and those who died of thirst and exhaustion.
More than 5,000 of the captives led by Bodi were annihilated inside and outside the fort - more than 1,000 were because Bodi did not want to leave at all after his death, and stayed here to change his life frantically. Otherwise, after all, there can only be a two-for-one or even three-for-one battle loss ratio, even though some of the Ming army has a side wall fortress to rely on.
The trapped and reinforcements from the Gubeikou side, Chahar Wanhu finally had more than 10,000 elite horsemen left, and they were "rescued" by me.
Yes, if I don't come, I'm afraid that there will be a "battle to recapture the body of the Great Khan" later.
Bodi died in the protection of his own soldiers, and it stands to reason that he died, but the body of Da Ming could not fall into the hands of Da Ming.
It's a pity that I ran into Li Jin, who took his life. When Bodie died, he rushed over with a team of more than 100 people left around him, and captured Bodie's body and the big coffin.
When he came back, he was full of arrows and no good meat, but he still killed all the way through the captive cavalry, and handed over Bodi's body and Da Xuan to Li Quanli's team before he breathed.
When I came, the people of the Chahar Department had scruples and calmed down a little.
The emperor's military exploits are rare to see in a hundred years, and at this moment, not only the surviving civil and military generals and soldiers are ecstatic, but Zhu Houxi himself has mixed emotions.
Even if the firearms have been improved a little, it is still not enough to erase the gap in combat power between the two sides at this moment.
On one side is the most elite pro-army of the Northern Yuan Great Khan to break through the siege, and on the other hand, the Ming army is from all directions who want to march tired and rush to catch up with the horses to encircle and intercept them.
The battlefield is still in the valley surrounded by mountain fires on both sides.
Bodie chose a final window to escape, albeit a little late.
As a seasoned hunter, he did not detract from his reputation for loyalty to the Khan's court, but also became the savior of the Chahar cavalry who were bent on returning home.
The Great Tomorrow got a rare victory, I got a grassland full of imagination, Duoyan Sanwei got the promise that the Ming was about to open a trade with it, and the only ones who were injured were Gunbiric and Bodie - no, Bodie died.
"Your Majesty, Yan Chunsheng has arrived."
Lu Bing's voice came from outside the tent, and Zhu Houxi cleaned up his mood: "Xuan! ”
Yan Chunsheng came in, looking embarrassed.
Most of his hair was burned off as he fled. With a single attack, they turned and ran, and were forced to burrow into another hill where the fire had already been ignited to avoid the pursuers.
"The minister Jin Yiwei commands Yan Chunsheng, see Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Banzai! Hooray! ”
"Get up." Zhu Houxi looked at him, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "I heard that you only shot one arrow, turned around and ran away?" ”
"Your Majesty...... As soon as the minister's arrow was shot, he knew that he had it. Now that you have succeeded, you must not fall into the ...... of the enemy."
Speaking of running away in a fresh and refined way, Yan Chunsheng was a little apprehensive in his heart.
Now that you have succeeded, of course, it is a small life. Splashing the sky and being rich, do you have a life to take it or not to enjoy it?
"That's right! Deeply fit the gist of special warfare! Although Zhu Houxi's mood is very complicated now, he still smiled and encouraged, "Xu Gong will talk about it after returning to Beijing, and today he will first name its mountain as Shenjian Mountain, and its ditch as Luohan Gully!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The little mountain bag where he shot the arrow has a name from now on, and his name Yan Chunsheng will naturally be praised for centuries.
As for the credit, it will be discussed slowly.
As one of the first to arrive at Zhen'anbao, Zhu Houxi asked him for a lot of details.
The battle of Luohangou was because of the mountain fires on both sides, breaking through the physical limit, and the generals of both sides who fought there for a day and a night were generally fierce, and those who survived all sweated like rain.
Here killed a Mongol Great Khan, and it was a battle of blood and sweat.
Zhu Houxi summoned Yan Chunsheng, who established immortal miraculous feats, but Li Jin, another unearthly miraculous feat, was dead.
"Li Jin, the deputy general of Datong Zuo, fought bravely and posthumously presented the Marquis of Chicheng. He Quan'an commanded well, and held on to Zhen'anbao for nearly four hours until the attack on Alta, posthumously presenting Huai'an Hou. The sons of Li Jin and He Quanan were young, and they first entered the Jinyi Wei martial arts, and when they grew up, they directly attacked the earl. The rest of the generals who died in the war were posthumously awarded to the county lords, and those who had sons grew up were ordered to attack the township lords first, and then conferred their posts. ”
"Commandment."
Yang Yiqing also sighed softly, a big battle, the general soldiers of Xuanfu may still be seriously injured and dying, and the deputy general soldiers of Datong were all killed and martyred, this battle was not tragic.
But the results they got in exchange were worthy of this posthumous title.
Yan Chunsheng lowered his head and his eyes lit up: Li Jin was posthumously presented to a marquis, and he is still alive, although he may be one level shorter, but at least he will be an earl, right?
For those who are alive, the credit will be discussed again. Those who die in battle must be glorified first.
Zhu Houxi set off to go back to Xuanfu: "Spread the decree to the Marquis of Wuding and guard Datong." He Xun was sent to temporarily sign the general army of Xuanfu Town and reorganize the defense of Xuanfu. Spread the message to Wang Shouren, Wang Xian, and Tang Shunzhi to see the driver in Xuanfu! ”
After a year of planning and more than two months of fierce fighting, the war finally came to an end.
However, this war has a process and result of detachment from planning, and Daming Border Town is also facing a new situation.
……
On the grassland, on the periphery of the Chahar Wanhu garrison, I watched the cavalry of the Chahar tribe slowly move north.
His eyes were deep and he sat proudly on horseback.
Next, there is the turbulence on the grassland.
There was no other possibility, and on the way, Alta had already expressed his attitude: he would call his eldest son, who was loyal to Bodi, and honor him as Khan.
Did he withdraw directly from the northwest of Xuanfu? No, it was Gunbilik who was defeated on the Datong West Road, and the Datong Ming army was ready to reinforce Xuanfu. This battle could no longer be carried out as originally planned, and the Great Khan, who had already penetrated into the western foothills of Yanshan, was very dangerous.
As for going all the way through the hinterland of Xuanfu? That's when both armies could be surrounded. What is wrong with me going around the dam to rescue me?
His message on the way, has been sending sentry horses to try to deliver a message to Akagi. But everyone has seen that the Ming army has already set up an encirclement network.
He's lost hundreds of messengers.
The words were spoken by him. In the battle of Yutailing, the bravery under his command no longer needs to be doubted, and the sons and daughters of his Tumut Department who died there are real, and he forced the Ming Dynasty to shrink the army on both sides of the Longmen River to return to Xuanfu to aid Xuanfu, and it is also true that the Xuanfu army is contained on the Xuanfu West Road.
Now, Bodie has missed a good opportunity to break through, can you blame me?
No, not only can't be blamed, but the Khan's side will make a wise choice: the Tumut tribe is willing to surrender, and is willing to continue to be the vanguard of the Khan's court to conquer the non-subordinate tribes, so isn't it not appeased, but turns his face?
In this battle, the biggest price I paid was to do whatever it took to break through Yutai Ridge as quickly as possible.
But he gained so much.
Now, he was looking forward to his brother, who had lost so much, to seek his support and try to emulate their father and snatch the throne of his nephew Bodi after the death of Dayan Khan.
After all, his dear brother is the commander of 30,000 households on the right wing, and he is the honor of Jinong.
The Uliangha on the left had previously had a dispute with Khalkha and had been conscripted by Bodi and the right. I don't know how Bodi said it was moved this time, but in the north of Jizhou, they haven't pushed it in every possible way, and they haven't put real pressure on Jizhou?
And Yongshebu in the right flank, who refused to send troops this time, and only provided food and grass in the area of the dam, how will he swing now?
When he called Sun and Gunbiric, what would he promise him to answer?
"Back to Toyosu Beach!"
The young man was full of pride.
In Toyosu Beach, the young Ma Fang seemed to have been domesticated, and now he has become a little helper, helping his "master" to domesticate the border people who were captured in this war.
Here, they do not know the course and outcome of the war, they can only see the joy of the Tumut tribe.
Ma Fang told himself that he could only endure it, and he could only watch which of these captive Han people were people who were as determined to take revenge as he was.
The generals in the border towns were all rubbish, which is why they were taken captive here.
If you want not to become a waste, you can only find out the habits of the Tartars and learn their bow and horse skills. In the future, defeat them again!
In Jingping City, Yu Dayou's injuries are gradually recovering.
Yang Bo has been staying here, on the one hand, talking with Yu Dayou about the past and the present, and on the other hand, helping to take care of his injuries.
Yu Dayou has been promoted to the general of the West Road Division, but he can't move much for the time being, and everything is arranged by Zhao Benxue on his behalf.
Fortunately, he escaped and did not continue to come back. The current work of the West Road is only to rebuild the border wall and fort and strengthen the guard.
"I don't know how the battle is going on the Xuanfu side that intends to encircle the lord of the Northern Yuan."
When Bao Zhengchuan brought the medicine to the table, he heard that Yang Bo was worried.
He laughed: "Xie Yuangong, what are you worried about!" The captives ran away, and I also ran away, and this battle was a big victory! ”
“…… Hum! If it weren't for General Yu, how could Datong have won a big victory? Yang Bo was still worried, "What am I worried about?" I'm worried that Wang Shangshu worked hard to build a fighter plane, but the Xuanfu generals can't catch it! If they were all like the Jingping Zhulu army at that time, the Tartars over there would still escape like captives! ”
Yu Dayou smiled: "Weiyue, you are so worried about the military affairs of the Xuanfu, it is better to come to the arms." I'm fine, I'm going to be pregnant, I'll repair a book and give it due, and he will meet him, and you can do your part again. ”
"Tang Futai is busy with official business, so I won't bother." Yang Bo suddenly said, "You must take care of your body, and you can't leave any old problems." I am from Shanxi, and since it is the right time, it is most important to ensure that you will guard the land of Jin in the future. ”
"I really admire the talent of the covenant." Yu Dayou looked at the bowl of medicine and smiled bitterly, "It's really easy to use?" You've been studying medical books all these days, and you've been writing a prescription for the ......"
"General Yu can't trust me?" Yang Bo was anxious, "I've seen all the famous doctors in the city, and they all said they could give it a try!" ”
“…… Naturally, I can trust you. Yu Dayou gritted his teeth and drank, "It's just a flesh wound, so you can't talk about nourishing muscles and bones, right?" After the injury is healed, I will practice more and more every day, and I will slowly come back. ”
"It's not a small problem to lose qi and blood!" Yang Bo looked serious, "You can rest assured that the doctors have said that this recipe is extremely warm." ”
Yu Dayou could only accept his enthusiasm, but muttered in his heart that the doctor in the city knew that you, the person who raised the gun, picked the head of the Tartar out of the battle, and it was Shanxi Xinke Xie Yuan, who would refute your face and say that you can't do this?
The hot-blooded young man made Yu Dayou feel more and more difficult to accompany, mainly because the other party Wencai made Yu Dayou a little ashamed, and he wanted to send him to Tang Shunzhi as soon as possible.
But the friendship of carrying a gun together, Yang Bo is so close and respectful to him, and Yu Dayou is not easy to say that I am a little afraid of you.
Fortunately, a voice came from outside the house, and Bao Zhengchuan, who had just finished delivering the medicine, turned back and shouted in a loud voice: "General! Checkmate! The good news from Xuanfu is here! His Majesty actually came to Sanchakou Fort in person, and the Mongolian bullshit Khan was beheaded! Great victory! What a victory! ”
Both of them were stunned, and Yang Bo couldn't help jumping up: "Kill the little prince?" Seriously? ”
"Then can there be a fake? How can such a great victory be faked, I heard that the body has not been taken back! ”
Yang Bo immediately forgot how he complained about the border town generals before, and stroked his hands and praised: "It's really a great victory!" I have been founding the country for more than 100 years, how many years have there been no such great victory as the lord of a country? The generals of the Xuanfu are all good! How was this battle fought? ”
“…… I only listened to the news, the detailed good news, and then I could send it to the general. ”
Yu Dayou was also very excited: "I can't be in Xuanfu!" ”
"General Yu has also made great contributions." Yang Bo walked around excitedly, "Now, it's time for the border town to stop, right?" Or will the Tartars raise another army for revenge? No...... There is no owner in the Khan court, and the grassland competes for power. General Yu ......"
Yu Dayou saw that he was immediately ready to talk to him about the situation in Mongolia again, and said: "I am brave in battle, but I am not good at planning. Now that the chieftain is dead, there must be a struggle for the throne of the Khan. However, there will be no war this winter, so you can go to Xuanfu. Your Majesty has seen your name in my newspaper. Go now, there is still time to see the driver, and you can ask for benefits from Yingde. You also have merit in this battle! ”
“…… No, that's a bloody bravery, the responsibility of a husband, and he doesn't ask for any meritorious service. ”
Yu Dayou shook his head: "You will know when you see Yingde." However, today's learning has gradually changed from the past. Your Majesty, Grandmaster, don't you want to meet and ask for advice? ”
Taking out the name of learning, Yang Bo finally nodded after twisting with due modesty: "General Yu is reasonable!" ”
Yu Dayou smiled: "I'll send two people, hurry up and escort you!" ”
This is a young man who is not deep in the city, but he is also a very enthusiastic and talented young man.
Yu Dayou saw him salute and leave, and then frowned and thought about it.
How difficult is it to kill the lord of a country?
What kind of price did Daming pay in this battle?
