When the fire burned, Zhao Min also began to lead the team to break through.

People were not afraid of this sudden fire, but the horses were very frightened. Fortunately, these soldiers were all elites trained by Zhao Min according to the methods of the Mongols. The crowd quickly pacified the horses, and then all of them rushed down the mountain.

Tang He and Feng Sheng began to form a formation on the path down the mountain, intending to deal with Zhao Min's cavalry charge.

Zhao Min, who was standing in front of the hillside, looked at the cavalry running in the distance, and then shouted happily: "Don't mess up, General Lan is here to answer us!" ”

Everyone followed Zhao Min's voice and looked at it, and saw Lan Yu, who was in the lead, holding the overlord Liang silver spear in his hand, just like Changshan Zhao Zilong was alive, one person and one horse rushed Feng Sheng's rear army around the mountain, and killed seven in and seven out in a short time!

And the cavalry that came later also waved their troops to cover the killing, constantly coming towards the rear of Feng Sheng's troops.

Tang He saw the brave blue jade in front of him, he frowned and scolded: "I didn't expect it to be this kid!" It's a pity that the upper position didn't eradicate him sooner! ”

Feng Sheng looked at Zhao Min, who condescendingly rushed down to kill, and then looked at Lan Yu, who was becoming more and more brave the more he fought.

Feng Sheng said to Tang He: "Dashuai, this time we are one chess difference." Lan Yu, the traitor, and the demon maiden of the Yuan Court are all elite cavalry, and the speed of our infantry can't keep up with them, and if we continue to fight, we may be divided and surrounded by their cavalry. The situation is not in our favor. In my opinion, it is better to retreat for the time being. ”

Tang He synthesized the form in front of him, and then said, "Alas! It seems that this is the only way to go. We lost the siege equipment this time, and it will be difficult to take Suzhou City again. I'm so ashamed! ”

Feng Sheng also sighed, but he was very calm.

Feng Sheng said: "This is entirely because of our light enemy, I didn't expect that there would be such a sophisticated cavalry unit under the command of Ming Zun. In my opinion, it is no longer realistic for us to take Suzhou City without equipment, so it is better to send troops to besiege it, and then hurry back to support the Yangtze River defense line. ”

Tang He shook his head and said, "It's impossible, we didn't declare war before, and trapped Mingzun in this small Suzhou city." It's already a complete tear in the face. Originally, our plan was to kill Mingzun, sneak attack to accompany the capital, and finally let the generals under Mingzun's command compete for power, fight hard, and then we will reap the benefits. ”

"Now, however, we have not yet approached the city of Suzhou, and we have lost our most advantageous weapon. If we attack it, even if the city is broken, then the price we pay is unprecedented, and we don't have to go back. While it is taboo to say this, we have indeed lost our only chance. ”

Feng Sheng also snorted coldly and said, "One, Zhang Shicheng, this bastard, was taken down by Mingzun so easily. In our original assumption, Ming Zun would lose at least half of his troops in the storming of Suzhou, and then we would take advantage of their defeat and then reap the benefits of the fisherman. But he didn't expect Zhang Shicheng to be wiped out without hurting Mingzun's vitality. The two bastards Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang also misjudged the situation. ”

Tang He also said indignantly: "The movement of the Yuan army in Jianghuai was so big before, and it was united with Zhang Shicheng, but I didn't expect it to be so useless, but I was defeated by Zhang Wuji's army in a battle just after fighting." That's it! Time is also fate! ”

Tang He immediately ordered: "Mingjin retreats!" ”

Hearing the sound of the gong, the soldiers of the Ming army, who were fighting with Zhao Min and Lan Yu, immediately retreated.

Seeing this, Lan Yu no longer chased after him, but led the team to run straight towards Zhao Min.

Now that the siege has been lifted, Zhao Min and the others are also relieved.

Afterwards, Zhao Min also immediately led his team to merge with Lan Yu's cavalry troops. After the two teams merged, they didn't say anything, but immediately drove back to Suzhou City to repair.

Huo Jia and the others, who stood on the city wall and watched the battle, were excited, and Zhao Min's force value was not mentioned for the time being.

Just looking at Lan Yu, a young man, he has such a brave courage, and everyone gave him a thumbs up.

After returning to the city, Lan Yu and Zhao Min also returned to the city wall to fight with everyone.

The soldiers who Hoga beckoned brought chairs to the two of them, and then handed them hot tea, although they were now sweating hot, but they did not dare to remove their armor.

Zhao Min wiped the sweat from his face, and then said, "I didn't expect your kid to be really not bad." This time this palace can be regarded as accepting your love. ”

Although Lan Yu is arrogant, he still understands the sophistication of human feelings, and at this time Lan Yu said: "If you want to accept your feelings, you should still accept Li Wenzhong's love." If it weren't for his sudden retreat, the junior would have been able to defeat them quickly, and the junior wouldn't have had time to join Niangniang. ”

Hoga personally handed two cups of tea to the two of them, and Hoga said, "You two are very powerful, you don't need to be humble." This time, we were able to save the day, and the two of us contributed a lot. ”

Lan Yu shook his head and said, "No! We haven't saved the day. I have been under Zhu Yuanzhang for many years, and I have some dealings with Tang He, Liao Yongzhong, Zhu Liangzu and others, and now we have only defeated most of them. ”

"Oh?" Zhao Min muttered.

Lan Yu took a sip of tea, and then patiently explained: "With Tang He's always stable character, he will leave some reserves, and he knows the key to attacking Suzhou City, one is time, and the other is siege equipment." Now that we've destroyed the equipment, he'll be bringing in a second batch soon. ”

Hoga said, "Then let's just move on." ”

Zhao Min shook his head after drinking tea and said, "It's impossible." This time we were able to succeed because we had a surprise attack on the other side, and judging from their response, they didn't expect that we had a squad of elite cavalry that could be called upon. If we talk about the decisive battle of the infantry alone, Tang and his corporal are not weak, and we do not have much advantage. This time he will definitely do his best to orient his siege engines, and even if we want to do it, we will have to pay a great price. ”

Lan Yu continued: "There is another important question, this time our casualties are not small, the cavalry under my command has suffered more than 600 casualties after this battle. ”

Zhao Min said: "I am the same, my casualties are more than yours, more than 800 people. Our cavalry unit lost more than 1,000 men after this battle. Moreover, many people were injured to varying degrees and were unable to fight again in a short period of time. And I also found some problems, although Jiangnan is rich in water and grass, the grass here is not suitable for feeding war horses. The physical strength of the war horse is only more than half of that of normal days. We don't have the strength to launch another cavalry raid. ”

At this time, a person's voice came: "Since we can't launch a surprise attack, then we will fight against the water, and now we have millions of taels of silver in hand, and the grain and grass are enough to support a month." Now that reinforcements have arrived on the north bank of the Yangtze River, it's time for us to fight back!"
