The "general of the Ming army" killed by Ulubo was naturally not the main force of the Ming Dynasty under Zhu Su, but the poisonous army led by Cao Tai.

Compared with the Persian army that served after being defeated by Zhu Di, the popularity of the poisonous people who believe in religion is still a little higher. In order to have enough troops to attack the base camp of Ma Heima, Zhu Su could not allocate too many troops to Cao Tai, but he allocated all the 10,000 troops to the envoy of the palace army responsible for containing Timur, and on the contrary, there were hundreds of grenades and firearms.

Close combat between the poisoners and the warriors of the Timurid Empire may be unlikely, but if they just fire a few cold guns from a distance and pull a ray, these people can do it.

However, the poisonous man used a firearm, but after all, he was not as skilled as the Ming army, and he was personally touched by Ulugh Beg and killed a poisonous general who led the team.

"General, Timur's army is on the move."

"See."

Cao Tai, who took on the task for the first time, stayed up all night, always paying attention to the movements of Timur's army. The next morning, however, he saw Timur's army marching out of camp. At this time, the heavy snow was still falling, and in the snow fog with extremely low visibility, several phalanxes of Timur's heavy infantry slowly penetrated the snow curtain, giving Cao Tai a strong sense of oppression.

"Didn't the thief chief go crazy, and today he actually invested in three phalanxes at one time?" Tang Li, the son of Tang He, looked at the three "turtle shells" that were trudging in the snow, and frowned with a somewhat solemn expression. Most of them who stayed behind to be in charge of the broken were students of the Guozijian Martial Academy, and most of them were the generals of the Xungui family, so they were familiar with it, and they could naturally see that the momentum of Timur's army today was quite different. "And they're pushing a little bit faster."

"I'm afraid I have already guessed that His Highness will pull out the camp?"

Cao Tai was taken aback, and glanced at the Timurid army in the snow with some horror. Although His Highness had instructed Timur to be very careful, he could not believe that Timur could see through His Highness's intentions in just one night.

"In any case, we need to set up a position to hold off these barbarian armies." Cao Taidao. "In any case, we should buy time for His Highness to break Ma Heima, otherwise, everything will be over."

Over there, Tang Li also nodded. The Ming army conquered the world and was invincible, and as the sons of Jiangmen, they naturally could not fall into the prestige of their parents.

The news was quickly sent to Zhu Su, and Zhu Su saw that Timur had begun to forcibly march, his heart sank slightly, and he nodded to the soldiers who gave the order and said, "Got it." ”

The soldier who gave the order was covered with snow on his head and shoulders, and he had fulfilled his duty and should have retired, but he hesitated, and then said to Zhu Su:

"Your Highness need not worry, please rest assured. Together with General Cao, General Tang, and others, we will definitely stop the army of thief chieftains and buy time for Your Highness......"

Zhu Su glanced at him slightly, shook his head and said, "No need, you tell Cao Tai and Tang Li and tell them to do your best." ”

"Don't worry about this king, let them stay for use, within tonight, this king will break the horse and black hemp."

The soldier's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he saw Zhu Su's eyes like a god, and then gave him a salute, and then went back to his life.

“…… His Royal Highness said that he could break the horse and black hemp tonight, isn't there any good strategy? When the soldier walked away, Di Meng stepped forward and asked Zhu Su with some worry.

It's not that he doesn't believe Zhu Su...... Rather, it has been a day since the Ming army attacked Ma Heima under this mountain.

The reality, however, is ...... Not an inch in.

After all, the Ming army was still smaller in number, at the beginning, everyone originally thought that it was to take advantage of the cover of the wind and snow, to take advantage of the surprise attack, and Ma Heima, who would not be able to react in the future, directly took it as quickly as possible.

However, after arriving here, I realized that the frightened Ma Heima was too steady.

It's just a rock mountain, but Ma Heima has three steps and one sentry, ten steps and one post, and the defense of this earth mountain is impassable.

There is no nomadic demeanor.

And the success is also wind and snow, defeat is also wind and snow, although the cover of the wind and snow allowed the Ming army to appear in front of Ma Heima with lightning speed, but the thick snow also made the Ming army's climbing extremely difficult, and the effect of firearms was greatly reduced.

After a bloody battle, the Ming army failed to directly defeat Ma Heima.

And what's even more unfavorable is that Ma Heima has already reacted from the initial panic of being raided, and began to organize some counterattacks in an orderly manner. Zhu Su's army, in essence, is actually a baggage army, and Ma Heima is afraid of the Ming army that makes him helpless in the trenches.

But now that the Ming army has come out of the trench, Ma Heima's courage has also recovered.

"Your Highness, if you continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that Ma Heima will soon be able to discover the truth of our army." The dog said worriedly. "Our army only has 5,000 elites, but Ma Heima's troops actually did not suffer much losses before, and now they have no less than 10,000 soldiers who can fight......"

"Ma Heima is not a mediocre general, our army has no follow-up, and he has already noticed it."

"The king knows." Zhu Su said.

“…… All they want is to make them aware of it. ”

……

"His Royal Highness Ma Heima, the sentry we sent down the mountain is back!" On the rocky mountain, a general of the Timurid Empire came to Ma Heima's tent with a surprise on his face.

"Oh? Quick, call him in! Ma Heima, who was full of doubts on his face, quickly got up and summoned the sentry warrior who dared to die. How is the reality of the Ming army? How many people did the king bring to attack the mountain that week? ”

"Very little! My noble Highness, the strength of the Ming army is very weak! The sentry looked out of breath, but his face looked very excited. We inspected the large camp of the Ming army, which contained only a dozen tents, mostly demoralized Persians. ”

Most of the people in the camp looked depressed and shivered from the cold. We desperately captured a Persian, and he told us that the Ming were forced to flee here by the Sultan's army, and that the Ming king of Zhou forced them to protect themselves from here......"

"Is your message accurate?" Ma Heima is still suspicious. "Could it be an imaginary that the Ming army deliberately let you see?"

"My noble Highness, this is impossible!" The Mongol sentry immediately swore an oath. "In order to stay away from the camp of the Ming army, our squad killed three warriors...... If the Ming army wants to deceive us, he will definitely not chase us like this! ”

Ma Heima nodded, agreeing with the sentry's statement. Immediately, a general next to him said: "His Royal Highness Ma Heima, we were deceived by the Ming people before!" ”

"They don't have so many people at all, they are deliberately bluffing, digging so many trenches, using trenches to deceive us that they have an army of 100,000 people......"

"Now that the Sultan has punctured their hypothesis, they have cowardly fled to our place because they cannot face the Sultan's edge...... We should take the initiative to go down the mountain and use the blood of these people to wash away our previous shame! ”
