When the little prince of Tatar led the rear army to the city of Quanning, it was unbelievable to face the news that all his elite cavalry had been killed.

"Bastard!"

He raised the whip in his hand and whipped the scout in front of him again and again, his face looking extremely hideous:

"The Ming army has been defeated all the way to this point, how can it be so easy to destroy my forward?"

"Also, Badur and they are all domestic elites, and they are old in battle, and the Ming army is shrinking in the city, what can they do to destroy them?"

"Let's go to the newspaper again!"

The scout looked up in a panic:

"Little Prince, it's true, Badur and they're all dead! When we went to investigate, it was clear that they were all killed by crossbow arrows! ”

"About 400 steps from the wall, all dead!"

In the Tatar army, many high-ranking officers suddenly looked at each other, when did the Ming army have such powerful crossbow arrows?

A captain couldn't help but draw his knife and scolded:

"Nonsense!"

"What crossbow can pierce armor from four hundred paces?"

The Tatars are good at riding and archery, and the bows and arrows they use are all strong bows and hard arrows, but even so, it is difficult to penetrate the leather armor three hundred steps away, not to mention the situation in front of them, the Ming army is clearly stationed in the city and guards, Badur They are chasing and killing the fleeing army outside, how can they be easily shot by the Ming army in the city under such a maneuver?

The scout knelt in place, terrified:

"We couldn't believe it when we investigated......"

After listening to the reports of another wave of scouts, the little Tatar prince finally understood that his elite forward, a whole old Qianhu cavalry, died tragically in the hands of the Ming army in front of him!

"Ahh

He angrily pulled out the long knife in his hand, looked up to the sky and roared:

"Which Ming army is in the city? Which general? I'm going to tear him to pieces! ”

A captain rode forward, stared at the distant city wall for a long time, and then turned back and said:

"Little prince, this Ming army seems to be a little special, I look at the flag on the city, and it is a Suzi flag......"

Well?

When the little prince of Tatar heard this, his anger subsided slightly, and he said with some surprise:

"You said that the Ming army in this city is the Su Wu Division?"

He also rode forward, carefully looking at the small city in front of him, his face cloudy.

"Did the Ming army come so quickly?"

"Isn't Su Wu all in command? How could he be stationed here? ”

According to his original expectation, a big army leader like Su Wu would not be able to meet them until their Tatar army broke through Xingzhou and came to the Gubeikou area, how could they encounter it early?

Tatar has been secretly communicating with those Ming Dynasty merchants, knowing that this Su Wu is now the trusted person of the Ming Prince, and he is also a good hand at marching and fighting, so when he suddenly saw him here, he was suddenly a little surprised.

Didn't your suspicious tactics work? In the remaining feints, the Ming army was not fully mobilized?

The other captains didn't take it to heart, and after observing for a while, they spoke one after another:

"Prince, it seems that Badur and they were careless for a while, and they didn't expect most of the Ming army to be here, so they will be wiped out......

"But now that our army has arrived, we don't have to take them to heart at all, just a small city, even if we are prepared, what can we do?"

"No matter how powerful that Su Wu is, even if he really has a strong bow and crossbow in his hand, what is it in front of our army?"

"That's it, just kill him first to give us a boost! The one in front of me only knows how to escape all the way and can't slip his hands, this time it depends on whether they dare to escape again! ”

The Tatar army has a fierce temperament, and after learning that his vanguard has been eliminated, he is completely aroused to be fierce, so after hesitating for a while, the little Tatar prince also made up his mind:

"All set up camp! Shoot! ”

"Prepare for the siege!"

……

On the city wall, Zhu Gaoxian stared at the Tatar army for a long time, and when he saw that they had begun to camp, he nodded:

"Alright, the Tatars have taken the bait."

He instructed Su Wu:

"Pass the order down, let the Fengzi battalion prepare to copy their back road, and the five military battalions will prepare to close the door and beat the dog from the east side."

"The Shenji Battalion is ready, the artillery in the city will observe the opposite position, and smash their artillery first, and then guard this wave."

"When the Tatars are exhausted, they can go out of the city and fight in the field and eat this Tatar army."

Su Wu also looked around with a telescope and asked:

"Your Highness, the little Tatar prince on the other side probably doesn't know that you are here, otherwise, he will probably have to think about it again......"

When Zhu Gaoxian was still the king of Qi, he followed Zhu Di to kill back and forth on the Mobei grassland, and cut down all the Warat and Tatars, and even the Khan Mahamu of the Warat people was beheaded by Zhu Gaoxian, and the old lord of the Tatars was also killed by Zhu Gaoxian's army at that time.

Therefore, the Tatars can be said to hate Zhu Gaoxian very much, but at the same time they are a little afraid.

If the little prince of Tatar knew that in the small city in front of him, Zhu Gaoxian actually took the entire Shenji camp to ambush him, it is estimated that he would really have to think about it carefully......

But at the moment, he thought that this was the commander of the Ming Dynasty to garrison Su Wu, although he was a little surprised, but he didn't take it to heart, after all, in the eyes of the Tatars, the strength of the general Ming army is like that, how can it be a battle-hardened Tatar cavalry opponent?

Zhu Gaoxian looked at the movement of the Tatar army in the distance, and also smiled slightly:

"This little prince, with only 30,000 Tatar troops, felt that he could kill the city of Beiping in one fell swoop, and even kill the entire Shuntian Mansion......"

"I think he eats too much mutton on the grassland, and his brain can't turn around."

"Since he dares to come today, don't think about going back."

It didn't take long for the Tatar army to prepare the artillery wagons, test fire a few shots, and land not far from the city walls, while the front army also moved forward slowly, and it seemed that the siege was about to begin.

Today's artillery carts, in fact, are simple trebuchets, Tatars and Ming on both sides, that is, to play a preemptive role, the real range and lethality is not large, therefore, the Tatars are relieved to boldly move the artillery position forward, intending to deter the Ming army in the city at the beginning.

When Zhu Gaoxian saw this scene, he almost didn't laugh out loud.

Isn't that clear that you want to send it?

The artillery cart in the Ming army has long been improved by him, adding a counterweight, just this small change, immediately made the artillery truck on the Ming side rise a few notches, not only shot far, but also strengthened!

In short, the artillery carts on the side of the Ming army were completely enough to crush the artillery carts of the Tatars on the opposite side!

"Let's get some hors d'oeuvres for the Tatars first."

Zhu Gaoxian smiled and gave orders:

"Smash all their artillery trucks for me first!"
