The soldiers of the Khitan army broke through the first camp of the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they continued to pounce on the second camp. The offensive is like a tide, the momentum is noisy, although the Ming army is trying its best to resist, but the situation is not optimistic! Can't the second stronghold be held?

Seeing that the battle was in his favor, he was so excited that he rode on his horse and shouted for the overseers to attack.

Han Chang suddenly pointed not far away and said, "Your Majesty, you see that there are firewood and grass piled up everywhere in this military camp!" ”

Brother Ye Hugh glanced at it, didn't pay attention to it, and said, "So what? Naturally, there is grass and firewood in the barracks! Han Chang said: "But the firewood and grass here are piled up too abnormally, how can there be such a stack of grass and firewood?" The last general is worried about ......" As soon as he said this, a soldier shouted: "Arrow attack!" Brother Ye and Han Chang hurriedly turned their heads to look, only to see countless rockets flying out of the second camp of the Ming Army. Han Chang's face turned pale and shouted, "It's not good!

At this moment, the rockets rained down like a raindrop, falling in the scattered firewood and grass piles, and in an instant the flames were scurrying, the fire was blazing, and the entire first camp saw the fire snake dancing wildly, and the fire wind was whistling, and it became a prairie fire in a blink of an eye! The Khitan soldiers were defenseless, many people were burned, screams and shouts rang out, and the originally surging wave of attacks was already in chaos at this moment.

Han Chang hurriedly shouted to Brother Ye, who was already dumbfounded: "Your Majesty, we have been tricked, let's retreat!" Brother Yehu reacted and shouted urgently: "Retreat!" Hurry back! ”

The Liao army hurriedly escaped from the raging camp, all of them were burned to the ground and embarrassed, and the terrible screams were endless, which was the soldiers who could not escape in the flames.

At this moment, the drums and horns in the Ming camp shook the earth, and a Ming army rushed from the side of the burning camp and rushed to the Khitan army. The Khitan army could not resist, and the army retreated, and the situation was extremely critical. At this moment, a Mongolian cavalry bypassed the retreating Khitan army counteroffensive and attacked the Ming army! In a fierce melee, the Mongolian cavalry withstood the attack of the Ming army! Seeing that the offensive of the Ming army was contained, Yehu Hugo immediately waved his army to counterattack! The retreating armies counterattacked one after another, and the battle situation immediately became unfavorable to the Ming army!

At this moment, a rapid golden bell sounded from the Daming camp. After the Ming army, which was fighting fiercely, broke off with cavalry, the army retreated into the camp one after another.

Seeing the enemy retreating, Jeschugo immediately ordered the army to stop the pursuit and retreat to the camp. A great war ended.

Yaren Hugo, who returned to the camp, was very unwilling, and immediately adjusted his deployment and prepared to fight again in the coming day.

The next day, Yehu Hugo attacked again, and in the following days, the Khitan army continued to storm the Ming camp. The Ming army tried its best to resist, but it was full of dangers, the second camp had been destroyed by the Khitan army, and the Ming army relied on the last camp to support it, and finally survived the fourth day.

Night fell, and the Khitan army, which had been storming all day, was very tired, so it had to stop attacking and slowly retreated.

Yelu Hanyu patrolled the barracks, constantly encouraging the soldiers, but the morale of the Ming army was very not optimistic, after a few days of fierce fighting, the heavy casualties have made the soldiers' will to the limit. Woo woo ......, faintly, and I don't know where the cry came from. In a huge barracks, on one side are mountains of burning corpses, and on the other side there are longing but silent, as quiet as a mountain of graves.

Yelu Hanyu walked to the fence and looked at the Khitan army camp inside and outside, his brows furrowed tightly.

Yang Jiumei hurriedly came behind Yelu Hanyu and said, "Chief, more than half of our army's casualties and morale are very low, I'm afraid I can't stop the Khitan army's attack tomorrow!" "Why is Yang Jiumei here? Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya were originally generals of the directly subordinate legions, but later because Yang Peng felt sorry for them, Yang Erya was transferred back to Bianliang. However, not long ago, due to Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya's request, the two daughters had been transferred back to the direct legion to take up their original positions, so this time the direct legion made a large-scale attack, and the two daughters, who were important generals of the directly subordinate legion, also went out with the army.

Yelu Hanyu frowned tightly and muttered, "I don't know how the situation is on the eldest brother's side?" Yang Jiumei said: "After so many days, I must have arrived." Yelu Hanyu's face was thoughtful.

Yang Jiumei said: "Boss, we have to think about the worst-case scenario!" I'm afraid that the current situation of our army will no longer be able to cope with tomorrow's attack! ”

Yelu Hanyu glanced at the pile of corpses burning in the distance, frowned and asked, "What do you suggest?" Yang Jiumei said: "It is difficult to defend in the wilderness, so it is better for the whole army to retreat into the city." According to the city, it is believed that it is impossible for the Khitan army to succeed in a short period of time! Yelu Hanyu's face was thoughtful.

In the big tent of the Khitan army, Yehu Hugo and the generals stood next to the sand table, Ye Hugo pointed to the Jianzhou City on the sand table and said: "The enemy army can't resist anymore, I estimate that they will retreat into Jianzhou City and resist stubbornly!" Therefore, the cavalry will take turns to monitor the Ming army, as long as the Ming army leaves the camp, no matter which way they move, they will immediately rush to kill me! They are all dead in the wilderness, and they must not be allowed to flee into the city! All the cavalry generals agreed together.

Yeyhugo glanced at the generals and said, "The enemy army cannot escape into the city, so they can only return to the camp and resist stubbornly. After the onslaught of our army in the past few days, the enemy army is already on the verge of collapse, and tomorrow all armies must do their best to defeat the Ming army in one battle! The generals responded in unison, and their morale was like a rainbow.

After the meeting was adjourned, all the generals went down to prepare, but Han Chang did not leave. Seeing that Han Chang hadn't left, Brother Ye Hugh still looked worried, and asked angrily, "Are you thinking nonsense again?" ”

Han Chang bowed to Brother Ye Hugh and said with a puzzled expression: "Your Majesty, after these few days of fighting, the last general feels a little strange. ”

Yeylord asked casually, "What's so strange?" ”

"Your Majesty, we have fought with the Ming Army more than once, how could the Ming Army have ever been so weak?" When Brother Ye Hugh heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved, and then said angrily: "What's so strange about this, most of the Ming army are military forces with underground combat power, and our army is all elite who have been in battle for a long time, they are naturally not our opponents!" ”

Han Chang said: "No matter how you say it, the Ming Army also has more than 200,000 directly subordinate legions here, and the directly subordinate legions are the elite divisions in the main force of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no need to say that the combat power is strong." However, in the past few days of fighting, almost all of the enemy troops have been pressed and beaten by us, and the first and second camps have fallen one after another. Even on the first day, when our army encountered the fire trap and was in a hurry, the enemy attack was actually repelled by us in the end! This really doesn't look like the Ming Army! ”

Yeylord asked displeasedly, "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

Han Chang said: "Your Majesty, your subordinates are suspicious, and they doubt whether the Ming Army in front of you is the main force of the Ming Army?" ”

Brother Ye's heart jumped, and he said angrily: "You think too much!" If it is not the main force of the Ming Dynasty, how can there be so many soldiers and horses? ”

Han Chang said: "Maybe they left all the general's army here to attract our army, but the main force went somewhere else!" ”

Brother Yahu rebuked: "You are cranky! How could there be such a thing! Seeing that Han Chang was about to say more, he said impatiently: "Okay, stop those ridiculous words!" I'm going to rest, go down! Han saw that His Majesty was unhappy and didn't dare to say any more, so he answered and withdrew from the big tent.

But Hugh was pacing back and forth in the big tent, looking uneasy. What was going on in his mind was what Han Chang said just now, although he reprimanded Han Chang just now, but he couldn't feel at ease at all, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Han Chang said was probably true. He himself has dealt with the Ming Army countless times, and he knows the power of the Ming Army very well, even the sixth and seventh legions that rank lower, and their own elite cannot defeat the other party with the same strength, let alone the elite directly under the Ming Army. With more than 200,000 soldiers and soldiers directly under the legion, and hundreds of thousands of military government troops assisting, the performance of the Ming Army really shouldn't be like this. In fact, all the generals of the Khitan army, including Yehu Huge, felt this situation, but everyone was too eager for a decisive victory, so they didn't think about the bad side.

Now that Han Chang has pierced this layer of window paper, he can't think of it or not. Ye Hugo further thought: If Han Chang's speculation is true, and the current Ming army is indeed only a military army, then where is the real elite main force of the Ming Dynasty?

At this thought, Yehu Hugo couldn't help but panic. Immediately, Brother Ye Hugh's expression was grim, and he said resolutely: "Regardless of whether the main force of the Ming Dynasty is here or not, since this battle has been fought to this extent, I will simply destroy the enemy army in front of me first!" As soon as he thought of this, he did not intend to change his previous decision, although he was uneasy in his heart.

As soon as dawn was the next day, the Khitan military camp was busy, and Yehu Hugo was ready to wipe out the current Ming army in one fell swoop today. The morale of the army is like a rainbow, and everyone is gearing up, ready to completely wipe out the Ming army today.

At this moment, a fast horse flew into the barracks. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.

The knight galloped to the front of Yehu Hugo, turned over and dismounted, and hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, no, it's not good, Dading Mansion, Dading Mansion ......" Speaking of this, the knight couldn't lift it in one breath, and the back words were stuck in his throat.

Brother Ye Hugh was in a hurry, and asked urgently, "What's wrong with Dading Mansion?" Say it! ”

The knight swallowed his saliva and said urgently: "Dading Mansion was captured by the Ming army a day ago!" ”

Although Yehu Hugo and the others had already expected it, they still couldn't help but be shocked when they heard the knight say it. Yeylord exclaimed angrily, "How is this possible? There are 100,000 soldiers and horses left behind to guard Dading Mansion, even if the main force of the Ming Dynasty besieges it, it is impossible to fall quickly! ”

The knight said: "The enemy came from the east in disguise as our army, and our army was defenseless and opened the city gate, only to be seized by the enemy army. Immediately, Yang Peng personally led the army, as well as Li Xu's soldiers and horses, and poured into the city together. Although our army resisted desperately, it could not resist, the army was defeated, and the remnants of the army had retreated to Enzhou. The general has sent me to report this to His Majesty. ”

Jehu pointed at the knight and roared angrily: "You generals should be cut with a thousand knives! ”

The knight was so frightened that he hung his head in a hurry, not daring to make a sound.

Brother Ye Hugh said fiercely: "Yang Peng broke the Dading Mansion, and I destroyed the Ming army in front of me, and it doesn't necessarily mean that I will lose!" Then he shouted at the generals: "Pass the order, the whole army will attack!" The generals agreed in unison. Han Chang hurriedly came up and said, "Your Majesty, no! The situation is very bad for us! If you can eliminate the Ming army in front of you in one fell swoop, it will only earn back some face, and it will not be of great help to the overall situation! But if the Ming army continues to be entangled in front of them, it will be difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser, then the enemy army will have time to cut off the way for our army to be retreated! At that time, our army will be really dangerous! ”

Ye Hugo and the others couldn't help but change their faces. Brother Ye Hugh was very unwilling in his heart, but he also knew that what Han Chang said was very reasonable, if it was really captured by the Ming army, then his retreat would be completely cut off, and the army would have no food available at that time, so he was afraid that his side would collapse without fighting in a few days. Thinking of the terrible consequences, he didn't dare to be strong for the sake of face anymore. glanced at the generals and saw that most of the generals were afraid, so he sighed: "I'm afraid this is the will of heaven!" Providence can't get along with our Daliao! All the generals were very depressed.

Yehu Hugo was silent for a moment, and then ordered: "The army immediately retreats north and retreats into Jinzhou!" "The people will make a promise together. Immediately, Brother Ye Hugh said to Han Chang: "Immediately send someone to inform Xiao Gan of the situation here, and tell them to retreat to Ande Prefecture and Sichuan Prefecture, and be careful." Han Chang promised and ran down. Andezhou, as mentioned above, is eighty miles south of Xingzhong Mansion, while Sichuan Prefecture is about fifty miles east of Xingzhong Mansion, also on the north bank of the Daling River, and is still in the hands of the Khitans.

As soon as the order to withdraw the army was issued, the Khitan officers and soldiers were greatly surprised, and then they heard about the capture of Dading Mansion, and the original surprise immediately turned into panic. The army dropped its heavy baggage and ordnance and quickly headed north to Jinzhou.

Yelu Hanyu and the others were originally worried that they would not be able to resist the onslaught of the Khitan army on this day, but they suddenly saw the Khitan army hurrying north, and immediately understood that it must have been Yang Peng's success, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Yelu Hanyu still didn't dare to be careless, worried that Yelu Hugo would play tricks, so the armies continued to defend to the death.

It is said that Xiao Gan Buli led tens of thousands of cavalry to drive directly between Jianzhou and Xingzhong Mansion to cut off the passage between the two, thinking that he would fight with the enemy army left behind in Xingzhong Mansion, but he didn't expect that after a few days, except for the reconnaissance cavalry of the enemy army, he didn't see the shadow of the enemy army, as if the enemy army was not worried about him cutting off the line of communication at all.

On this day, Xiao Gan Buli suddenly received an urgent order from Brother Ye Hugh, and couldn't help but be surprised to learn that Dading Mansion had fallen again and that the army had retreated north. Hurriedly led one side to send an order to Andezhou, and on the other hand, led tens of thousands of soldiers under his command to retreat south. In less than a day, Xiao Gan returned to Andezhou, and immediately ordered Xiao Sali to lead a part of the army to defend Sichuan Prefecture according to the instructions of Ye Hu Hugo. However, before Xiao Sa Liyu arrived in Sichuanzhou, he heard that the prefect of Sichuan Prefecture had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and was shocked, so he sent someone to report that Xiao Gan would not leave, and on the other hand, he led the army to turn and rush to Qianzhou. Qianzhou is thirty or forty miles southeast of Sichuanzhou, and the Daling River was originally a river flowing northeastward, but when it arrived in Qianzhou, it suddenly turned southeast until it flowed into the Bohai Sea, so a Hetao area was formed between the two, and Qianzhou was in this Hetao.

Soon after he fled to Jinzhou, he received a report that the city of Sichuan had surrendered, and he could not help but be angry again. Immediately, he urgently ordered the armies to adjust their deployments in the hope of stabilizing the current front.

In fact, Brother Ye Hugh was too worried, and he was afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years. In fact, now the Ming army is also unable to continue to attack, first of all, the consumption of grain and grass is very huge, and it can no longer support the army to fight, and secondly, the loss of the military army is too great, collect the corpses, treat the wounded, these things have involved too much resources and energy of the Ming army. After the Khitan army retreated, the Ming army immediately redeployed, assuming a defensive posture and no longer intended to attack. At present, the Khitan army led by Yelu Guanyin guards Xingzhongfu and Chuanzhou, while the second army and the main force of the directly subordinate army are stationed in Dadingfu, and the military army is temporarily stationed in Jianzhou.

The battle on this side of Zhongjing Road has come to an end, but the war on the west side is still in full swing.

The 200,000 main forces led by Yang Yanzhao and Duan Zhixian have already captured Zhaozhou in the Mongolian region, and are confronting the Liao army, and the war is about to break out. At the same time, the 300,000 military army led by Cao Jun left the Xijing Road and had already entered the main city of Talazi in Mongolia. This way the army hit the Liao army unexpectedly, when the Ming army entered the main city of Tala, the Liao defenders of the main city of Talazi did not react, so the Ming army captured the main city of Tala. Immediately, the army captured Pi Shouhe City, which was not far from the main city of Tala, and then Cao Jun left 100,000 soldiers and horses to garrison the two cities, and he himself led 200,000 soldiers and horses to the west and pounced on the back of the Liao army from the east side.

When he received an urgent report from the west, he remembered that he was like an ant on a hot pot, and immediately summoned the generals to discuss. When the generals heard that there was actually a third way for the Ming army to go out of Xijing Road and capture the main city of Talazi and Pi Beihe City in one fell swoop, they were all shocked.

Han Chang said worriedly: "This is very bad! The Ming army has formed an encirclement of our army in the Mongolian region! ”

Da lazy said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, hurry up and reinforce it!" ”

Brother Ye Hugo said angrily: "Reinforcements? How to reinforce? At present, the enemy army is pressing the border, what if our army is transferred and the enemy army comes to attack again? Da lazy touched a nail and was depressed.

Han Chang said: "Not only that. There is not much food and grass left in our army now, and I am afraid that it will not be able to support the large-scale mobilization of the army. ”

Yehu Hugo waved his hand and said, "That's not a problem. Since Zhang Chang has the ability to raise so much grain and grass for me in a short period of time, he will definitely be able to do it, so leave this matter to him. ”

Han Chang couldn't help but say; "Your Majesty, Zhang Chang's method is clearly to kill chickens and take eggs! His method has already made the people's resentment boiling, and if he does it again, I am only worried that the people will no longer be able to control it! ”

Jerehugo said angrily; "I don't believe they dare to rebel!"

Han Chang wanted to say that there had been many rebellions, but he was afraid of angering Ye Hugh too much, so he didn't say it when it came to his lips.

Jerry Hugh pondered; "As for the reinforcements to support the Mongolian region, I think we will call in the Khorezm army." The Khorezm Army, as the name suggests, is a large army formed by the local people of Khorezm, and is now cooperating with a small number of Liao troops to garrison the Khorezm region to defend against the West. Yeylord Hugo originally did not plan to mobilize that army, but now that the war situation is not good, there are no soldiers to send in the country, and even if he captures the strong men, it will be difficult to assemble an army for a while, so he has to mobilize the Khorezm army. The Khwarazm army had 400,000 troops, and if it was transferred to the Mongol region, it might immediately change the tide of the war.

The generals listened to the words of Yehu Hugo, and the others were nothing, but Lakshin and other Mongolian generals were not happy. Rakshin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the last general does not like the Khwarazmian people to enter the last general's hometown. All the Mongolian generals agreed one after another, and they were all very angry.

Brother Ye Hugh glared and shouted: "This is my military order, how dare you say more?" ”

The generals closed their mouths, and all of them looked depressed.

Brother Hugh said: "This matter is done like this, no one is allowed to say much!" The Mongolian generals looked indignant, and Rakshen said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army to support!" If you are not victorious, you are willing to be a military lawyer! Brother Ye Hugh glared and shouted, "I have already said it, I have decided this matter!" Laxon was indignant, but stopped talking.

After the meeting was dismissed, he immediately wrote a letter and asked his cronies to send the letter back to Shangjing and hand it over to Zhang Chang.

After Zhang Chang received the letter, he saw that the emperor ordered him to catch the strong men and collect grain and grass, and he couldn't help but be full of joy, and immediately convened the courtiers to discuss the matter. Soon after, the order was given, and Shangjing was the first to stir.

With the commotion in Shangjing, it must have been like a paradise in Dading Mansion, except for those Liao nobles who had colluded with Ye Hugo to capture the city, all the people were smiling. Those nobles in Dading Mansion originally thought that they would be able to enjoy those previous privileges again after helping Ye Hugo capture Dading Mansion, but they didn't expect Feng Shui to turn so fast, and Dading Mansion was occupied by the Khitan army for less than ten days, and it was actually taken back by the Ming army. These nobles were originally going to be opportunistic for profit, but now they have sent themselves to the chopping block. Yang Peng recaptured Dading Mansion, naturally he would not let them go, even if he was punished for treason, confiscated the family property of the nobles, and all the personnel involved in this matter were beheaded. In an instant, the nobles of Dadingfu withered, and the land and wealth of the nobles all fell into the pockets of the Ming Dynasty for free. However, this didn't make Daming much money, but only made up for some of the losses.

In the palace, the coquettish and angry cries of women came and went. "Big brother, what are you doing? I don't want to ...... with a few of them, hmm......" This seemed to be Yang Erya's voice, but before the words were finished, it turned into a whining sound.

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