After Xiao Feng spurted out a mouthful of blood, he felt a little more relaxed.

In his later life, he had never seen such a scene. He had only seen such scenes in some movie screens, but when you suddenly found yourself in the situation, the kind of hellish impact directly exceeded his limit.

Although he has been in Daming for more than a year, and in Zhang Tianci's house, he has also experienced the moment of life and death with real swords and guns, but it cannot be compared with today's scene.

Therefore, in the eyes of the sergeants, his composure and indifference were actually really stupid.

At that moment, he couldn't wait to rush through the mountains, rush to Gubeikou, rush to the territory of the Tatars, and fight with them, life and death have nothing to do.

However, as the hot blood in his chest spurted out, he instantly calmed down.

He noticed a strange phenomenon, why were there no old people among these dead bodies?

Although the average life expectancy of the Ming Dynasty is not long, in such a mountain village, the number of elderly people should be quite a lot. Why are there young men, young women, and children everywhere, but there are no old people?

Regardless of whether it is male or female, there is not a single old man, could it be that when the Tatars slaughtered the village, they were the weakest old men, and they could escape their butcher's knives?

No, they deliberately let those old people go. But why did they just let the old man go?

What are the characteristics of the elderly? Deaf, dazzling, unable to see or hear clearly, then, what do they want these old people to let go of not be able to see and hear clearly?

Xiao Feng suddenly understood, he broke free from Qi Jiguang's support, and was about to remind the watchman of his attention.

The screams of the sentinels had come down from the top of the hill, accompanied by large body movements.

"General! Mr. Xiao, no, the Tatar cavalry rushed over, on all sides! ”

Qi Jiguang stood up straight, and he immediately ordered the cavalry to shrink up the hill and occupy the high ground, and at the same time sent someone to clean up the spring that had just been found, blocked by corpses and stained red with blood.

Since the enemy is deliberately setting up an ambush, although it is a way to break through the siege while taking advantage of the chaos, if the two sides have a huge disparity in strength, they will still die in the melee. Qi Jiguang quickly determined the strategy to stick to.

The mountains here are continuous, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and it is extremely difficult for the cavalry to attack on the back. In addition, there is a spring in the mountain, which can be used to provide drinking water after digging and cleaning. The cavalry carried dry rations with them, and if they had water and food, they were not afraid of losing their combat effectiveness.

What's more, this place is not far from Miyun City, unless the enemy's large army has already arrived, the enemy army has to beware of the Miyun defenders.

In Qi Jiguang's judgment, this is still the 10,000-strong team of Tatars who rushed over before. With twice the number of troops, it is impossible to completely encircle him, he just needs to choose a good time to break through.

Xiao Feng took the binoculars and looked down the mountain, and sighed for a while.

"They used these burned villages as bait to lure us in, but they secretly lured us behind the mountains. When Tanma discovered the village, he didn't have time to go around the back of the mountain to see.

The lookout sentry who climbed the hill was also blocked by the rocks on the mountainside. You can see in the distance, but you can't see the bottom of the back of the mountain. ”

Qi Jiguang nodded, and when he saw Xiao Feng tearing off two branches and breaking the stubble, he knew what he was thinking.

"Are you afraid that they will attack with fire? The weather is still a little cold, and although the grass and trees on the mountain have turned green, they are still a little dry after all. So, once they attack with fire, it will be really troublesome. ”

Xiao Feng was puzzled: "Then why did you let the cavalry shrink up the mountain?" In case they light the fire, don't we let the family stew a spoonful? ”

Qi Jiguang pointed to the foot of the mountain: "Look at the roadside under this mountain, there are also dead branches and dry grass. If they really want to catch fire, they themselves are in danger. What's more, now the mountain wind is cold halfway up the mountain, and the smoke can't float up, so the power of the fire attack is greatly reduced.

We are a point on the hill and can rush down from the hill in any direction. They were a circle at the bottom of the mountain, and though they were outnumbered of us, they were not tight enough on each section. If we really light the fire, we will be chaotic, they will be more chaotic, and it will be easier for us to break through. ”

Xiao Feng knew that although he had seen some art of war, he was still far from Qi Jiguang in terms of real marching and fighting, so he chose to resolutely trust him.

Since the fire attack was mentioned, Xiao Feng nodded to Qi Jiguang and showed a smile that he hadn't seen since he went up the mountain. 33

"The boxes of things I brought from the WTO Accession Concept can just be used at this time!"

These boxes of things, Xiao Feng let the soldiers use the largest and fastest carriage, densely stored. There was a lot of cotton wool outside the box, as if cotton didn't cost money.

At that time, Qi Jiguang also jokingly said, although I don't know what is in you, even if it is an egg, in such a box, it will never be broken.

And the most mysterious thing about this car is that it always follows the team far away, at least a few hundred meters away from the team, and no one is allowed to approach except for a few escorted soldiers.

At this time, seeing that Xiao Feng was finally about to reveal the mystery, Qi Jiguang felt very curious and followed to see.

The box was opened, and it was also wrapped in cotton, Xiao Feng picked one up, tore open the cotton, and inside was a ball of oiled paper, and when he tore open the oiled paper, there was a black thing inside, which did look like an egg, but the shape was longer.

"What is this? Gunpowder? How is it different from what I've seen before? ”

Xiao Feng smiled: "This thing is the latest product of the WTO entry concept. Strictly speaking, it existed before the WTO accession, and I have only increased its power. The key is that the original owner did not dare to admit that he had done this thing, and this pot could only be carried by the concept of WTO accession. ”

As the sky was getting dark, the Tatar brigade finally ended its raiding of the surrounding area of Gubeikou and sent 2,000 cavalry to escort slaves and goods to the direction of the steppe.

Of the remaining 20,000 horses, 10,000 were stationed at Gubeikou, and the other 10,000 continued to advance and joined the 10,000 horses in front.

20,000 Tatar iron cavalry is enough to be proud of the world, and any Ming army, unless there are 40,000 cavalry, it is difficult to fight.

In the vicinity of the capital, it is impossible to gather 40,000 cavalry in a short period of time, and no matter how many infantry there are, at most they will defend the city, and they will only be slaughtered in the field.

Even if the tactics are proper and you can win once in a while, the opponent can only stare dryly when he flies a kite, and two legs can't catch up with four legs.

The 10,000 cavalry left in Gubeikou are recuperated and ready to be used as backup at any time, and more importantly, they must guard against the Ming Dynasty mobilizing troops and horses to block the fortress of Gubeikou and cut off the loop.

Although the Ming soldiers and horses are weak, after all, the land is vast and the population is large, and there is really an empty city, and the army of the Ming Dynasty takes the opportunity to occupy it, and it will be difficult to gnaw it down.

The fight went smoothly this time because the defenders of Gubeikou were not well prepared and were secretly attacked, and if they really wanted to open the posture and gnaw hard, they would have to lose a few teeth.

Altan Khan was full of spirits, constantly urging the troops to advance, eager to rush to the bottom of Miyun City at once.

Although Miyun City may not be able to fight down, the surrounding cities of Miyun are richer than Gubeikou, and he dares to bet that the Miyun defenders will not dare to go out of the city, and it is still a situation where they will loot at will.

Xiao Qin and Altan Khan rode side by side, but they seemed a little preoccupied.

"Why, are you still thinking about that so-called 'Word Measuring Heavenly Master'? Don't worry, the battlefield talks about real swords and real guns, even if he really has some Taoism, he can't stop my 20,000 iron horses! ”

Altan Khan did not directly say that he did not believe in Xiao Feng's Taoism, because as a branch of the Mongols, he also inherited the attitude of the Mongols towards Taoism - half-believed.

Starting from Temujin, the leaders of the Mongolian dynasties were suspicious of the Taoist culture of the Han people, even in the late Yuan Dynasty in order to suppress Taoism, began to support Buddhism, in fact, it was also a political need, and they still did not dare to despise Taoism in their hearts.

This probably has a lot to do with the success of Qiu Chuji's preaching to Temujin back then, so Altan Khan may have Taoist skills for Xiao Feng, and he did not show absolute disbelief.

Xiao Qin glanced at Altan Khan, this foreign leader who trusted him, probably always thought that he was also a Taoist figure in his heart.

Although he didn't show it obviously, his insight into people's hearts and accurate judgment of things were all mysterious.

He knew that he was from the White Lotus Sect, but the Mongols had always thought that the White Lotus Sect belonged to Buddhism. This is also the basis why the Yuan Dynasty was very friendly with the White Lotus Sect for a time.

As the holy envoy of the White Lotus Sect, Altan Khan felt that he was a Taoist figure, which was very strange, but what was even more strange was that his feelings were surprisingly accurate.

It's just that Xiao Qin doesn't plan to tell him his true origin, let alone tell him his guess about Xiao Feng's identity.

Xiao Feng, such an important person, his secret envoy in Beijing actually ignored it, and only told him that this person was against the Yan family.

But Xiao Qin also understands why. There are too many Taoist priests that Jiajing has trusted, coming and going like a tide, each leading the way for three or two years. The envoy probably regarded this young man as one of them.

What's more, the secret envoy only focused on two things, collecting money and spying on military intelligence, although Xiao Feng had a fierce quarrel with the Yan Party before, but he had nothing to do with these two things, so his report was just a corner.

It wasn't until Xiao Feng went out with the army this time that the secret envoy completed some of his information, and only then did he really notice this person.

Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng, what are you doing at the moment?

At this moment, Xiao Feng is staring at Qi Jiguang tightly, wherever he goes, he will follow, Qi Jiguang will sit on him, and Qi Jiguang will stand when he stands.

"Brother Xiao, what are you going to do, what do you say?"

Xiao Feng didn't say a word, just sat across from him and looked at him eagerly.

Qi Jiguang suddenly realized.

Some people died, but not completely......
