The sect leader waved his hand. Tens of thousands of soldiers on both wings howled and outflanked them, and in an instant, the crowd was rolling, and the rumbling sound completely overshadowed the roar of Yanyun's war horse. The Ming cavalry rushed like a black cloud between the two wings of the enemy army, and rushed straight to the large army of the Vietnamese army.

Seeing that the Ming war cavalry was rushing from between his own troops, Zongtong couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly ordered the Chinese troops to prepare for battle. Seeing that although the enemy cavalry was small in number, it was unusually brave and unstoppable, and panic rose uncontrollably in their hearts.

"Shoot the arrows!" With a loud shout from a Vietnamese general. The crossbowmen of the Vietnamese army released arrows together, and the arrows flew into the sky, flying towards the Xuanjia war horses like dense locusts. At this moment, the soldiers of the Vietnamese army suddenly saw that those Yanyun knights disappeared on the back of their horses in an instant, and they couldn't help but be taken aback. After taking a closer look, he found that the Ming knight did not disappear, but instantly turned under the horse's belly. The whole person seems to be completely attached to the belly of the horse, as if it is a part of the war horse, and the essence of riding is breathtaking.

The rain of arrows fell into the cavalry, and more than a dozen horses fell to the ground with a neigh. The rain of arrows is dense, but the attack effect is limited. It turned out that the horses of the Xuanjia war horses were equipped with sophisticated vests to protect the head and the position of the front abdomen, although the rain of arrows of the Vietnamese army was intensive, but most of the arrows were shot at the two positions of the horse's head and the horse's belly, and they were blocked by the vest.

Seeing that the attack was not effective, the Vietnamese army could not help but become nervous. Three rounds of continuous shooting did not cause much damage to the Ming War Horse, but the attack torrent composed of the Ming War Horse was already close at hand.

The Xuanjia cavalry hidden under the belly of the horse suddenly flipped onto the horse's back, drew a shuttle dart and threw it at the Vietnamese army! I only heard a loud sound, and the shuttle dart rained towards the Vietnamese army, and the sky seemed to darken instantly! The momentum of the shuttle dart flying in the face is much more amazing than the rain of arrows, the Vietnamese soldiers saw hundreds of thousands of shuttle darts flying towards them, the momentum was amazing, they couldn't help but be frightened and changed color, many Vietnamese soldiers subconsciously turned around and ran away to dodge! There was a loud crackling sound, and the shuttle dart rained down into the military formation, and many Vietnamese soldiers were nailed to the ground by the powerful force of the shuttle! All of a sudden, the screams rang out, and the Vietnamese soldiers were in a commotion!

At this moment, the Xuanjia war cavalry slammed into the defensive line of the Vietnamese army. The Vietnamese army was already in a commotion, where could they withstand the fierce charge of Yan Yunxuan's armored cavalry, and the defense line collapsed in an instant! In the midst of the shouts and shouts one after another, the Xuanjia war cavalry stepped on the flesh and blood of the Vietnamese soldiers and rushed into the Vietnamese army formation in one fell swoop, trampling with iron hooves, waving the horse lance, the flesh and blood of the Vietnamese army flew sideways, scurrying around, and the entire Vietnamese army was shaken. Under the horror of the sect commander, he kept shouting at the top of his throat, trying to stabilize his position, but the soldiers of the Vietnamese army were already terrified under the charge of the Xuanjia war cavalry and the iron-hoofed sharp soldiers, where could they still hear the order of the sect commander!

The entire battle formation of the Vietnamese army was pierced by the Xuanjia war cavalry in one fell swoop, just like a hot knife cutting cream. The officers and men of the Vietnamese army suffered heavy casualties, and the morale of the army was greatly moved.

The Xuanjia cavalry cut through the large formation of the Vietnamese army, quickly turned around, adjusted the formation, and prepared to continue the attack. The Xuanjia War Horse, which had been killed for a round, exuded an astonishing murderous aura, which made people shudder when they looked at it from a distance.

The sect commander shouted at the top of his lungs, urging the soldiers to line up in formation, and at the same time ordering the two wings of infantry that had been sent out earlier to outflank them to hurry back.

Kill! The soldiers of the Vietnamese army only heard a shout from the Ming war cavalry, which shook the sky, and they couldn't help but feel a big shock in their hearts. Immediately, I saw that the two or three thousand terrifying black cavalry launched again, surging like a black cloud! The officers and men of the Vietnamese army have experienced the battle just now, and now they can't help but be terrified when they see such a scene again!

Zongtong felt that it was impossible for his side to stop such a terrible cavalry, so he thought of the war elephant and hurriedly ordered the war elephant troops to rush forward to meet the battle. The battle array parted immediately, only to see five or six hundred war elephants rushing out of the military formation with a roar and rushing towards the Ming war horse. Zongtong stared at it with wide eyes, revealing a fierce expression, and muttered to himself: "No matter how powerful you are, you can't beat the war elephants, I want you to look good!" ”

Zhan Jinguo suddenly raised his horse lance, and when Yanyun cavalry boarded, it split into two strands, and like two giant snakes, they bypassed both sides of the Vietnamese army's war elephant troops, and there was no battle with the war elephant troops at all. The officers and men of the Vietnamese army in the large array couldn't help but be stunned when they saw such a scene. Seeing the Ming war cavalry rushing over from the left and right, the soldiers of the Vietnamese army changed color in unison, and the sect commander shouted at the top of his voice: "Release the arrow!" Hurry up and release the arrows! The Vietnamese archers hurriedly released their arrows, but the result was the same as before, and they didn't cause much damage to Yan Yunjun at all.

In the blink of an eye, two groups of Xuanjia war horses stepped into the enemy formation from the left and right sides in one fell swoop. In the screams of exclamation, the soldiers of the Vietnamese army fell down one after another like harvested wheat, and the corpses were flying in blood, and the soldiers of the Vietnamese army were in chaos and wailing. There were also brave Vietnamese soldiers who tried to block the charge of Yanyun war horses, but they were either knocked away by the war horses or picked up by the horse lance, in the face of the invincible power of the Xuanjia war horse, bravery and death are actually the same thing.

The Xuanjia cavalry once again pierced through the middle of the Vietnamese army, and this time it dealt a greater blow to the Vietnamese army; The war elephant troops of the Vietnamese army had just rushed to the side of their own army formation, and they were blocked by their own army formation, and they did not know what to do for a while.

The two flanks of the Vietnamese army, which had been sent out to try to outflank the Xuanjia cavalry, finally returned and hurriedly lined up with the Chinese troops. At this moment, the rumbling sound came again, and the Ming War Cavalry attacked again. The result was no different from the previous two times, except that this time the Vietnamese army suffered more heavy losses.

The Xuanjia cavalry rushed through the Vietnamese army's formation. The Vietnamese soldiers hurriedly turned around and adjusted their formation, preparing for a new round of charging and killing by the opponent. At this moment, the Vietnamese generals were out of breath, and everyone felt very frightened and overwhelmed.

At this moment, the rumbling of war drums suddenly came from behind him. The soldiers of the Vietnamese army were taken aback, hurriedly looked back, and saw thousands of Ming infantry troops appearing behind them. The Vietnamese soldiers were in chaos when they boarded, and if they hadn't been a little afraid of the general Zongtong, many Vietnamese soldiers would have fled for their lives at this moment. And their great generals, the sect commanders, were also terrified, and they didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of them!

At this moment, the loud rumbling of iron hooves trampling the earth suddenly rang out. Some Vietnamese soldiers exclaimed. Before the battle was engaged, the entire Vietnamese army had already begun to waver! Faced with the situation in front of him, the great general of Zongtong didn't know what to do at all!

In an instant, I saw the fierce and fierce Ming war cavalry rushing into the military formation. The Vietnamese army was in great confusion, and the entire army began to retreat. And at this moment, the 10,000 infantry army led by Duan Zhixian fiercely attacked from behind, killing the corpses of the Vietnamese army and flying blood, as if entering a no-man's land. The Vietnamese army could no longer hold on, and completely collapsed like ants in a fryer. Wolves rushed in all directions, fleeing for their lives. The Ming army pursued and killed on all sides, and there were scenes of slaughter everywhere, and the blood dyed the entire grassland mottled red!

……

After noon, the battle stopped, and the Vietnamese army was defeated, and the remnants of the defeated army fled for their lives to the east.

A subordinate general rode his horse and rushed to Duan Zhixian, clenched his fists excitedly and said: "General, the enemy army was completely defeated by us, except for the more than 10,000 remnants of the army, all of them were wiped out by us!" Duan Zhixian laughed, "Okay! Well done brothers! The general said: "There are tens of thousands of Vietnamese prisoners, are they being escorted to Bagan City?" Duan Zhixian raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "How can we have time to care about these captives!" Kill them all! The general was taken aback and said urgently: "General, I am afraid that Your Majesty and the cabinet will blame you for such a massacre of prisoners of war!" Duan Zhixian glared and said: "What are you talking about, if there is any problem, there is naturally a sprinkle family!" We still have to deal with the Tianzhu people, you go and carry out the order, don't delay time! The general answered the promise and ran down.

Immediately, a terrible scream rang out, and tens of thousands of military prisoners were all beheaded by the Yanyun army. There are eighty or ninety thousand corpses scattered across the entire meadow, and there are really corpses all over the field! For many years after that, the vegetation of this place grew extremely dense, and the birds and beasts were crowded, but the local people did not dare to approach one place, and the terrible legends about this place were not only spread in Bagan, but also spread throughout the southern land. Of course, this incident has also become an excellent evidence for some people to slander the Ming Army.

After Duan Zhixian finished all the prisoners, he immediately led his troops and horses back to the west. On the way, he met 10,000 soldiers and horses who came to meet him, and then returned to Bagan City with a combined army.

Shi Ping couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Duan Zhixian led the army to return unharmed, and when he heard that the Vietnamese army had been completely defeated.

Shi Ping saw that he didn't capture a prisoner under the great victory, so he asked Duan Zhixian: "General, why didn't you see a prisoner?" Duan Zhixian said casually: "Kill." Shi Ping was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief: "What did the general say?" ”

Duan Zhixian glared and said, "I said kill them all!" ”

Shi Ping was shocked, and asked in shock: "The general slaughtered the prisoners?" ”

Duan Zhixian nodded, and said angrily: "What are you doing in a hurry?" Isn't it just killing the captives? It's also a waste of food to keep those frustrated birds, so it's better to send them to reincarnate early. ”

Shi Ping frowned and said, "The general is only afraid that His Majesty and the cabinet will blame him for doing this!" Duan Zhixian said indifferently: "Blame it, blame it, anyway, the Sprinkle family doesn't think this matter is wrong!" Those frustrated birds, when they invaded our Guangnan West Road, they didn't kill any of our people, and I slaughtered tens of thousands of them just to take a little revenge! Seeing what Shi Ping wanted to say, he said impatiently: "If you don't do it, you can do it, what you say now is nonsense!" Shi Ping was depressed.

Duan Zhixian asked, "Where are the Tianzhu people?" ”

Shi Ping hugged his fists and said: "According to the report I received not long ago, the Tianzhu army is only more than a hundred miles away from here. Duan Zhixian thought for a moment, raised his head and glanced at the generals, and said loudly: "Let's not sit here and wait for them to come to the door." Let's take the initiative and defeat them in one fell swoop! Better than waiting here! The generals echoed one after another, and Zhan Jin said: "We will defeat 100,000 Vietnamese troops in one fell swoop, and 30,000 soldiers and horses will have no problem dealing with Tianzhu's 150,000 soldiers and horses!" ”

Shi Ping hurriedly said: "This is not good! There are more than 1,000 war elephants in Tianzhu, and our army has no gunpowder or artillery, so we can't deal with those war elephants! In fact, our army's victory over the Vietnamese army was also a fluke victory, if the Vietnamese army had not had scruples at that time and had been engaged in war elephants at the beginning, the victory or defeat was really unpredictable! Now against the Tianzhu army, you can't gamble like this! If the Tianzhu people were not as cautious as the Vietnamese army and threw themselves into the war elephant troops as soon as they came, our army would not be able to win, but would have suffered a demoralization setback. It is better to take advantage of the current defeat of the Vietnamese army to boost morale and stick to Bagan City. ”

The generals looked at Duan Zhixian to see what he said.

Duan Zhixian frowned tightly and said, "I don't like this strategy!" ”

Shi Ping was shocked, thinking that Duan Zhixian was carried away by the victory, and said urgently: "General, the victory or defeat of the army has a far-reaching impact, and there must be no luck!" ……”

Duan Zhixian said angrily: "You are good at everything, it's just not good!" Everything is so discreet! Seeing that Shi Ping was about to speak, he immediately intercepted his words and said: "The Sprinkle family you said understands that the Sprinkle family will not go to confront the Tianzhu people head-on!" Shi Ping was stunned for a moment, feeling that Duan Zhixian had something to say, and asked with his fists clenched: "Does the general have any clever plans?" ”

Duan Zhixian smiled and said, "Bullshit's clever plan! It's just to go to the camp of the Tianzhu people to kill people and set fire when the moon is dark and the wind is high! Shi Ping's eyes lit up and said, "The general is so strategic!" The Tianzhu people thought that our army only had 30,000 soldiers and horses, and they did not know that the Vietnamese army had been defeated by us, and they would never have thought that our army would take the initiative to attack them. Nine times out of ten, this strategy will work! Duan Zhixian stood up and said loudly: "Old rules, Shi Ping, you stay behind, and I will lead the army to attack." ”

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door. Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look, only to see a scout officer rushing in, clasping his fists and saying, "General Qiqi, the Tianzhu people have retreated!" ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Duan Zhixian asked puzzledly: "The Tianzhu people have retreated?" Why did they suddenly retreat? The scout officer shook his head, "I don't know. ”

Shi Ping said happily: "Earlier, there was news from Dali that General Shi Liancheng had led the army to march to Tengchong Mansion in the west. Presumably, the Kshatriya was afraid when he saw our army menacing, so he hurriedly transferred the Tianzhu army into Bagan to come to help. Duan Zhixian nodded and said, "You're right. Then he said with a regretful face: "Fuck, the Sprinkle family hasn't enjoyed it yet, they actually ran away!" Shi Ping smiled: "Finally, there were no mistakes in this battle!" ”

Duan Zhixian said: "This battle is not over yet! With that, he stood up and walked over to the map. Pointing to the ocean south of Bagan, he said: "Big brother wants to make an outlet to the sea from this direction, but we are far from doing it!" He turned around, glanced at the generals, and ordered: "Niu Tai, you lead five thousand soldiers and horses to the Salween River and build a city to defend it." Niu Tai clenched his fists and promised. Duan Zhixian looked at the other general and ordered: "Duan Wei, you lead five thousand soldiers and horses north to Qionghela to guard against a sneak attack by the Tianzhu people." Duan Wei promised to protect himself.

Duan Zhixian looked at Shi Ping and said with a smile: "Shi Ping, you lead 10,000 horses to sit in Bagan City, and the Sprinkle family leads another 10,000 horses and the Xuanjia war cavalry of the brothers of Zhanjin Kingdom to continue southward and fight to the sea in one go. Zhan Jinguo excitedly clenched his fists and promised.

……

In the main hall of the Bianliang Palace, the cabinet ministers were discussing. Yang Peng sat at the top, listening to everyone's discussions, Yang Peng had returned to Bianliang a day ago. What everyone is talking about is about Duan Zhixian's massacre of Vietnamese prisoners. On the one hand, he thinks that Duan Zhixian's actions are too cruel and should be punished, but on the other hand, he thinks that there is nothing wrong with Duan Zhixian's actions, although the methods are a little cruel, but it is just to avenge the compatriots who died at the hands of the Vietnamese army, and those Vietnamese soldiers who were killed are just innocent of death.

Yang Peng raised his right hand, and the heated discussion fell silent.

Yang Peng said: "Although Duan Zhixian's approach is a little inappropriate, it does not violate military law, that is to say, this matter has no basis in the law, and the monk should not be punished." ”

The ministers glanced at each other, and Tang Shidian frowned: "But, if such an act is not punished, it will be detrimental to the image of our Ming Army!" Several ministers nodded approvingly.

Yang Peng said with a smile: "We shouldn't do things that violate military law for the sake of the so-called image." Military law does not prohibit this kind of thing, so why should we punish monks? Tang Shidian and the others looked at each other, and Tang Shidian hugged his fists and said: "Then please ask Your Majesty to formulate such a law!" ”

Yang Peng pondered: "There are pros and cons to this matter, and it cannot be generalized. At that time, Duan Zhixian also wanted to get rid of the burden and concentrate on dealing with the Tianzhu army. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and decisions must be made on the spot, and there must be no mercy of a woman! In my personal opinion, Duan Zhixian did the right thing! Tang Shidian and the others couldn't help frowning when they heard Yang Peng say this.

Yang Peng glanced at a few of them and said with a smile: "Your ideas are also reasonable. However, it is to look at this issue from the perspective of a peaceful world and a civil servant. Things on the battlefield are not what you are good at, and your ideas, while often good, often do not correspond to reality. Whether or not to designate a military law prohibiting the slaughter of prisoners of war will be left to the Military Council at the end of the year. Everyone clasped their fists together and said, "Your Majesty is wise." Although Tang Shidian and the others still had some ideas, it was difficult to say anything more, because Yang Peng's words were very clear, that is, Wenchen only needed to take care of internal affairs, and military matters were handled by the Military Committee.

After the meeting, Yang Peng and Yan Ji went for a walk by the lake in the Imperial Garden. Yan Ji turned her head to look at her lover, but did not speak.

Yang Peng turned his head to look at Yan Ji and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" You don't even know your husband, right? ”

Yan Ji smiled and said, "Even if the concubine forgets herself, she will never forget her husband." ”

Yang Peng's heart fluttered, and he lightly wrapped his ape arm around Yan Ji's slender waist. The two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent. Yang Peng saw that the lotus flowers in the lake were blooming, the colors were gorgeous, and they were very beautiful, so he couldn't help but point to the lotus flowers in the lake and said: "Look, how beautiful!" Seeing the brilliant lotus flowers in the lake, Yan Ji couldn't help but like it in her heart and nodded. Yang Peng turned his head, stretched out his fingers and gently picked up Yan Ji's chin, looked at the beautiful and unparalleled face in front of him, and said gently: "You are like those gorgeous lotus flowers!" Yan Ji smiled and couldn't help but lean into her lover's arms.

The two of them kept warm for a while, Yan Ji remembered something, raised her head, and asked, "Husband, today in the court, have they made Husband Jun and Husband angry?" ”

Yang Peng smiled and asked, "Why do you ask that?" ”

Yan Ji said: "In this matter, their ideas are completely contrary to the husband, is the husband not angry?" ”

Yang Peng lowered his head and kissed Yan Ji's red lips, and said angrily: "Hearing you say this, it seems that I am a faint gentleman who can't hear dissent!" ”

Yan Ji smiled: "The husband is not a faint king!" Fujun is the most wise and martial emperor in the past! When Yan Ji said this, she was completely from the bottom of her heart, and her beautiful eyes were full of reverence. Yang Peng smiled evilly: "Your husband is indeed extremely powerful, and he killed Ai Ji last night!" Then he swallowed his saliva and said with an endless aftertaste: "That tactful moaning sound still makes people feel angry when I think about it at the moment!" Yan Ji's face was full of charm, full of amorous feelings, and said coquettishly: "The husband is dead!" Last night, he came up with such a way to tease his concubine! At this point, I couldn't help but feel emotional, squeezed my tall and sexy delicate body into my lover's arms, and said angrily: "Husband, the concubine is a little tired, let's go to the palace to rest!" ”

When Yang Peng heard her words, the bones in his body were lighter, and he teased; "What a pervert, didn't you feed last night?" Yan Ji raised her head and looked at Chen Xiao with resentment. When Yang Peng saw her like this, he couldn't help but move his index finger, and immediately picked her up horizontally and walked quickly towards the dormitory. When the surrounding palace maids and female guards saw it, they avoided it one after another and snickered. ……

A few times of affection, a few lingering, unconsciously, the evening sun shines in through the window. The limbs of the two were tightly intertwined, and they just wanted to be one. Yan Ji was lying on her lover's chest, her beautiful face was full of passionate afterglow, her beautiful eyes were half open and half closed, and her red lips were even more delicate.

Yan Ji gently rubbed her lover's body with her body, and her beautiful eyes were full of charm. Yang Peng smiled, patted Yan Ji's buttocks gently, and said, "Don't make trouble!" We're going out in the evening! Yan Ji stopped teasing, smiled, and fell back on her lover's chest, feeling that the time of the moment was really no happier.

Yan Ji remembered something, raised her head and smiled at Chen: "Husband, although Lord Tang has a contrary opinion with his husband, they are still extremely loyal to his husband!" ”

Yang Peng smiled: "You are still worried about this matter now!" Don't worry, your husband and I are not so careful. After a pause, he pondered: "What's more, I think it's a good thing that there are always different voices in the court. Otherwise, even the truth will one day become a fallacy! ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time
