Chapter 1292: Duel (Second Shift)
Let Ma Xin's soldiers and horses ambush the Ming army in Yandang Mountain, this is a strategy that Murong father and son have long decided.
Yandang Mountain is slightly closer to Wenzhou, in the northeast of Wenzhou. In the northwest of Taizhou, it is relatively far away from Taizhou capital, but it is only more than 100 miles away.
At this distance, the cavalry of Taizhou can arrive in an hour. Therefore, the soldiers and horses of Taizhou did not need to rush to Yandang Mountain in advance, so as not to startle the grass and snakes and arouse the suspicion of the Ming army.
Ma Xin's 20,000 soldiers and horses ambushed the Ming army in Yandang Mountain, which was enough in the eyes of Murong and his son. With Ma Xin's bravery, as long as the more than 200,000 Ming troops are cut into two sections. The soldiers and horses of Taizhou arrived, echoing with Ma Xin's soldiers and horses, and they were able to win more with less and annihilate the Ming army.
For this battle, Murong Hai and Murong Shan strategized and gave up the good Wenzhou Mansion. The reason why the enemy was so tempted was because Li Yan's soldiers and horses were so powerful that the rebels of Murong and his son could not resist it at all.
Li Yan's men and horses attacked the city and captured the fortress along the way, advancing by land and water, and in just a few days, they had advanced the battle line for hundreds of miles.
Although Wenzhou City is a historical city and an important military town, it has always been a battleground for soldiers. They also have deep belief in Ma Xin's ability. The city of Wenzhou is high and deep, and it is solid.
But they had already expected that this city alone would not be able to stop Li Yan's more than 200,000 soldiers and horses. Wenzhou City only has an army of 20,000, although Ma Xin is brave.
However, Li Yan's team has more than 200,000 horses, and his soldiers and generals are also brave, and there are martial arts masters from Shaolin and Wudang factions to help fight, so it is simply unrealistic to defend the fortified city.
In the end, it was still a loss of troops.
If you want to completely defeat Li Yan's more than 200,000 troops, you must rely on martial arts masters to strike at point points. But they have martial arts masters, and the Ming army also has martial arts masters.
They had to find a way to trap Chongzhen. Otherwise, Emperor Wu of the Great Ming Dynasty was a cultivator in the late stage of the True Immortal, and he could rush to the battlefield at any time to reverse the situation and let their plan to destroy the enemy go to waste.
Therefore, they ordered Ma Xin to abandon Wenzhou, creating the illusion that Li Yan's army was vulnerable and fleeing, so that they could relax their vigilance.
Ma Xin's 20,000 horses withdrew to Yandang Mountain to ambush, and ambushed the Ming army by surprise, as long as they could entangle Chongzhen, Taizhou's soldiers and horses arrived in time, so that they could completely annihilate the Ming army.
This is also their strategy of retreating as advancing.
In addition, Ma Xin's abandonment of the city and retreat was also part of the plan to lure the enemy. Let Ma Xin, the 20,000 soldiers and horses, withdraw from Wenzhou Mansion and ambush in Yandang Mountain.
Because Yandang Mountain is located in the middle of Wenzhou and Taizhou. The mountains are dangerous and the terrain is complex, which is convenient for the use of troops here.
At the same time as Ma Xin retreated, Murong father and son and Ran Yu were in full swing, setting a trap for Chongzhen in the eastern part of Quanzhou and in the sea area of the ancient city of Chongwu, waiting for him to be fooled.
For this battle, Murong father and son personally went out to lure the enemy and gave up the thousands of miles of Pengcheng bird out of the city, it can be said that they were scheming.
Everything went reasonably well.
But Murong father and son never expected that in the battle at the bottom of the sea in Chongwu, Quanzhou, Ranyu, who was sure to win, ended in failure.
Ranyu was not the opponent of Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty in the water, and he was defeated in a battle at the bottom of the sea.
However, this did not affect their plan to ambush the Ming army in Yandang Mountain, because although the battle under the sea, Ranyu was defeated by Chongzhen.
But Ran Yu did not hurt his vitality, and he also rescued an important helper, that is, Lu Mingqing, the master of the Demon Sect, which is also the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Land True Immortal and Murong Hai's same level of force.
Moreover, Lu Qing and Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty had a grudge against their father, and after returning to Taizhou, because they had a panacea, plus the internal strength behind them to treat Lu Qing's injuries.
It is also Lu Qing's deep foundation, mainly because of his age, which is the period when he is in his 20s.
Therefore, in only two days, Lu Qing recovered as before.
Therefore, after Murong father and son successfully won over Lu Qing, they felt that the four of them would still be able to deal with Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty.
Here Ma Xin ambushed Li Yan's men and horses at the foot of Yandang Mountain, and as soon as the battle started, a horse had already been reported to Murong Hai in Taizhou.
Murong Hai
Immediately ordered Murong Shan to send troops.
Murong Mountain had already been prepared, the 30,000 army was ready to go, after receiving the order, they opened the city and went out, 5,000 iron horses in front, 25,000 foot soldiers in the back, like a whirlwind rushed to Yandang Mountain.
At the same time, Murong Hai immediately ordered someone to find his son Murong, Ran Yu, and Lu Qing, and the four of them had to rush to the territory to personally supervise the battle, and the most important thing was to deal with Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty.
They had already expected that Emperor Wu of the Great Ming Dynasty would make a move.
In the battle on the battlefield, they mainly relied on the 50,000 troops of Ma Xin and Murong Shan.
Dealing with Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty is a matter for the four of them. If Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty didn't come, they would have a better chance of winning this battle.
Therefore, according to their plan, this battle is guaranteed to be won and not lost.
However, after Murong Shan led an army of 30,000 to leave, something happened in Taizhou Mansion, which made Murong Hai more annoyed. Because someone told him that Murong Gongzi and Lu Daxia were not in Taizhou City, but they just found Ran Yu alone.
Murong Hai was a little surprised, where could the two of them go?
Murong Hai's mind was clear, and he knew what was going on in an instant, and Murong Hai was angry.
In front of Murong Hai, Ran Yu was shy on the surface, and there were still a few guilties.
Because after all, this incident started because of her, and Murong father and son are now his lifesavers, and she is grateful to this father and son on the surface.
But in fact, Ran Yu was secretly funny, these two *** actually duel for themselves. But none of them are their own Prince Charming, this is pure wishful thinking on their part, and it has nothing to do with them.
The two phantoms of Murong Hai and Ran Yu disappeared into the big tent of the military camp in Taizhou......
On the riverside outside Taizhou, two people were fighting.
These two people are all dressed as martial arts people, both in their 20s, one of them is barehanded, and the other is carrying a long flute behind him.
These two people are none other than Lu Qing, the master of the Demon Sect, and Murong Hai's son, Murong.
