Chapter 176: Cao Wenzhao VS Sun Chuanting

Perhaps it is the reason for the lack of iron products, of this 3,000-cavalry Eight Banners, only more than 1,000 cavalry are "heavily armed iron cavalry", and the rest are all "light cavalry"!

Overall, its horse armor and rider equipment are far inferior to the Xiao Cavalry Battalion!

However, before the two armies came into contact, the cavalry battalion lost its armor!

Defeat is like a mountain!

How can such a soldier fight?

Sun Chuanting was angry and anxious, angrily pulled out his long sword, shouted, and killed the Eight Banners desperately!

Perhaps because of the infection of the coach, or because of unwillingness, more than 100 riders turned their horses and followed closely behind Sun Chuanting!

However, the outcome of this battle, there will be no more suspense!

For the more than 100 horsemen who were killed head-on, the Eight Banners did not take it to heart, and only divided more than 100 horsemen to meet the attack!

The rest of the Eight Banners had their eyes shining and rushed to hunt down the deserters!

The cavalry battalion fell one after another!

Sun Chuanting is a weak scholar after all!

After being shaken off the horse, the iron armor on his whole body was so overwhelming that he couldn't stand up!

However, even lying on the ground, he did not give up!

Gripping his sword, he used his suckling strength to slash at a horse's leg!

The enemy war horse fell to the ground with a bang!

In the roar, the Eight Banners who fell to the ground had not yet come back to their senses, and the long sword passed through their chests!

Blood splattered, blurring Sun Chuanting's eyes!

After a hasty wipe, he was about to look for the next target, when another war horse crashed to the ground!

Sun Chuanting's eyes were black, and he was no longer conscious!

……

I don't know how long it took, Sun Chuanting slowly opened his eyes.

The autumn wind blew, and it was cold.

"Master Sun, you're finally awake! On such a cold day, I wasted two pots of water! ”

Cao Wenzhao smiled and handed Shang Fang's sword back to Sun Chuanting: "Lord Sun's courage is commendable, I will admire it!" ”

With that, hand over a piece of dried meat.

Sun Chuanting hesitated to take it and turned his head to look around.

I'll go!

The pungent smell of blood is coming to your nose!

There are corpses of the Eight Banners all over the place!

Hundreds of war horses of the Eight Banners seem to have forgotten the fight just now, and are leisurely gnawing on the grass!

A large number of Ming troops and some riders of the cavalry battalion are cleaning the battlefield!

Cao ...... Mr. Cao? Are you Mr. Cao? ”

Recalling Cao Wenzhao's portrait, Sun Chuanting was surprised and delighted: "Cao Zongbing, are you prominent?"

I...... I came to your aid, but I was saved by you...... Alas......"

Looking around, Sun Chuanting shook his head helplessly, and once again set his eyes on Cao Wenzhao: "Chief Cao Bing, I heard...... The fire in the fort was so bright that I thought it was ......

By the way, the Eight Banners besieged the Sifang Fort, how did you stand out? ”

"Cut!"

Cao Wenzhao smiled indifferently, his face full of disdain: "No matter how many Eight Banner soldiers there are, there will always be a time to sleep!" When they fell asleep, I swaggered out of town! ”

Cao Wenzhao didn't bother to explain too much, so he turned over and got on his horse: "All departments are on guard and continue to clean up the battlefield!"

A quarter of an hour later, the whole army crossed the river! ”

As soon as the military order came out, the ministries were busy but not chaotic!

All the riders, there is not a trace of fear on their faces!

Compared to the Riding Camp, it's a world of difference!

In fact, Cao Wenzhao stood out from the encirclement, and he really came out of the "swagger"!

Three days ago, Cao Wenzhao asked Huang Taiji for grain and grass but couldn't do it, and he couldn't hold his breath anymore!

That night, the horns in the city sounded in unison, and a group of Ming soldiers howled and fought out of the city!

In this regard, the Eight Banners soldiers couldn't ask for it, and calmly lined up to meet the enemy!

However, they did not engage the Eight Banners!

When he was more than 200 zhang away from the enemy's formation, he suddenly died down and withdrew to the Sifang Fort!

Under the trade-off, Huang Taiji did not catch up!

Unexpectedly, an hour later, another group of Ming troops came out of the south gate, still shouting violently to kill the earth-shattering sky, but just about to meet the enemy, they hurriedly retreated!

Zilharang was unwilling to let go of the great opportunity, so he hurriedly led his troops to catch up!

However, only more than 300 zhang was chased, and suddenly the explosion rumbled, and people turned on their backs!

It turned out that the Ming army saw that the Eight Banners were chasing after them, and they lit the projectiles and threw them out!

The Eight Banners chased after him, and the lead just burned out!

injured more than 100 riders, Huang Taiji was furious!

Strictly order the soldiers and horses of all walks of life besieging the city not to leave the camp without an order!

Because, Huang Taiji fully believed: The Ming army's move was intended to lure him to attack the city!

Never be fooled!

Hold your ground, surround him for a few more days, and you will be able to win easily!

In the next two days, every night, every other hour, the Ming army will kill on time and then retreat!

In this regard, the Eight Banners soldiers are accustomed to it, but they have not relaxed at all, and they are always ready for battle!

However, as soon as the Ming army retreated, the Eight Banners soldiers immediately relaxed and fell asleep!

Today's three watches, the Ming army concocted the same method!

However, this time, the Ming army had just retreated for less than a quarter of an hour, and suddenly the whole army was killed!

Silently!

When they approached the camp tent of the Eight Banners, hundreds of projectiles were thrown out one after another!

The rumbling explosion shocked the Eight Banners soldiers!

When he came back to his senses, the Ming army was already gone!

Huang Taiji finally realized that this move of the Ming army was Zhuge Liang's "strategy to scratch the enemy" when he attacked Hanzhong!

At the beginning, Cao Cao couldn't stand Liu Beijun's attack and evacuated Hanshui overnight!

Now, I have calmed down, but I am very secret!

However, Huang Taiji did not give up easily, so that Jierharang led 3,000 horsemen to chase after him!

Half an hour later, Haug and Dorgon were ordered to lead 3,000 horsemen each, and pursue them in a roundabout way from the east and west!

However, Cao Wenzhao's Guanning Iron Cavalry is, after all, a battle-hardened battle!

Zilharang, who had just repelled the middle lane, suddenly heard that the direction of the sand pot in the east shouted to kill the heavens!

Cao Wenzhao didn't think much about it, and immediately brought troops to help!

Coincidentally, they met Dolgon's troops, chasing and killing the scattered cavalry battalion!

After half an hour of fighting, Dolgon suffered more than a thousand dead and wounded horsemen, and temporarily retreated!

When cleaning the battlefield, he saved Sun Chuanting!

If not, Sun Chuanting will be crushed to death by that war horse!

Or, at the hands of the Eight Banners!

"Chief Cao Bing, on this Sanggan River, you can't find a ferry boat for a while, right?"

"Without a ferry, I wouldn't have to cross the river!" Cao Wenzhao looked at the river and smiled softly: "It's just right, so as not to be misunderstood, thinking that I am afraid of the Eight Banners!" ”

"Uh...... Mr. Cao is brave and brave, so he is naturally not afraid of the Eight Banners!

It's just that the cities and villages of this Datong Mansion have all been ransacked by the Eight Banners!

In many people's homes, even the damp and moldy grain mixed with sand and soil has been robbed!

If you don't manage to cross to the south bank, how will you get food and forage?

How to compete with the Eight Banners? ”

Seeing that Cao Wenzhao was silent, Sun Chuanting continued to probe: "Why don't you go northeast along the Sanggan River and go around to Xuanfu?"

When I came from Juyong Pass, I had already ordered Chen Hongfan, the chief soldier of the Xuanfu, to raise grain and grass, which would definitely solve the urgent need for coal! ”

"Chen Hongfan? I don't know! ”

Cao Wenzhao shook his head and smiled nonchalantly: "If I want to find grain and grass, why do I need to go to Xuanfu?"

Twenty miles to the north, Dolgon, who was gathering the remnants, didn't he bring food?

Dozens of miles away, Datong City not only has grain, but also enough bean cakes! ”

"But...... Over there, the Victory Fort, Zhenqiang Fort, and the Four Castles have all fallen, and Datong City is isolated!

If you are besieged by the Eight Banners again, who can save you? ”

"Humph! Only I, Cao Wenzhao, save others, I don't need others to rescue!

Lord Sun, are you waiting for the boat to cross the river, or are you going to retreat to Xuanfu?

Or, follow me to Datong? ”

"This ......"

For a while, Sun Chuanting had a hard time choosing!

It can be seen that Cao Wenzhao really wants to go to Datong - he only trusts Datong General Soldier Man Gui, but he can't trust Chen Hongfan, the Chief Soldier of Xuanfu!

Now, although the 4,000 cavalry battalions brought from Juyong Pass and Bauhinia Pass were rescued by Cao Wenzhao, there were only more than 2,000 cavalry left!

The most important thing is that this army is not combative!

If you follow Cao Wenzhao to Datong, not only will it not help, but it will only add to the chaos!

Why don't you wait here!

By the way, practice arranging troops, boost morale, and prepare food and grass!

Wait until the 6,000 cavalry from the direction of Henan arrive, and then join Cao Wenzhao in Datong to kill the enemy together!

Well, that's it!

So, Cao Wenzhao led his troops back to the north, and by the way, he took away more than 1,000 captured war horses!

And Sun Chuanting is stationed on the bank of the Sanggan River in situ!

At the same time, he sent someone to Xuanfu and asked Chen Hongfan to send grain and grass to help!

The two of them are fighting on their own, and it looks like nothing is wrong!

However, Cao Wenzhao, who wanted to defeat Dolgon and rob the grain, grass and war horses, completely miscalculated!

By the time he arrived, Dolgon was gone!

Needless to say, he was likely to return to the Quadrangular Fort and join his main force - it was almost dark, and he didn't dare to lead the remnants of his army around!

No one is stopping, just right!

Just before dark, just in time to get to Datong!

All the way to the north, Cao Wenzhao traveled unimpeded!

However, he despised Dorgon!

The remnants of Dorgon have not returned to the fort!

Instead, it joined the remnants of Jilharang and went east in the direction of Xujiazhuang!

At the same time, the Hauge garrison on the west road is by the Sanggan River!

In the eyes of these three people, Cao Wenzhao broke out of the encirclement and led his troops to retreat south, and he would never go north to seek death again!

For a while, Cao Wenzhao couldn't cross the river, so he could only be stationed on the spot!

Wait until midnight, and the east and west sides will be attacked, and you will be able to win a big victory!

The trio was right!

Their night raid was very successful!

It's just that it was not Cao Wenzhao who was attacked at night, but Sun Chuanting!

Camping with your back to the water, a taboo for soldiers!

In the face of the two-way attack of the Eight Banners, the cavalry battalion responded to the battle in a panic and was defeated!

The soldiers went out of Datong, two defeats in one day, and Sun Chuanting was full of grief and anger!

was about to draw his sword and kill himself, but was held by several soldiers!

Push and push, jump into the Sanggan River and disappear!

Sun Chuanting is familiar with the art of war, so he naturally knows the consequences of the backwater array!

But, he still lined up with his back!

In his opinion, Cao Wenzhao led his troops north, and the Eight Banners would definitely chase him, and they would never return to the Sanggan River!

The three-way Eight Banners soldiers were flanked by the east and west, and I thought there would be a vicious battle!

Who knows, I met a soft pestle again!

It's so comfortable to pinch!

……

In Datong City, Man Gui was shocked and suspicious!

This Cao Wenzhao, what kind of trouble is going on?

Although the Sifang Fort is lost, Datong is still in his hands, so it's no big deal!

However, you finally broke out of the encirclement, why did you take the initiative to come back and die!

If you want to die, why are you here in Datong?

Attracted so many Eight Banner soldiers, are you leading the way, or do you want to trap me?

"What, I'm not happy to eat your military rations?"

Cao Wenzhao smiled, grabbed a piece of chicken leg, and handed it to the quick-eyed pawn beside him.

Then, he snatched the chicken leg from Man Gui's hand and stuffed it into his mouth.

"General Man, don't forget!

Your 20,000 soldiers can have a full stomach, weapons and armor, all of which are the silver given to you by my factory!

By the way, you should not be lazy when you prepared the bean cake and forage a year ago, right? ”

"Isn't it just 10,000 war horses, no problem in three months!"

Man Gui patted his chest, looked the pawn up and down, and then moved his gaze to Cao Wenzhao:

"I said Mr. Cao, you want to take a woman in the army, no one dares to say half a word!

Why do you want to hide it?

What, you're afraid I'll snatch it away from you? ”

"Cut!"

Cao Wenzhao took a sip disdainfully, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, and did not deny carrying the woman.

After all, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were similar to those of the Song Dynasty, regardless of the border army and recruitment, when fighting, transferring or tuntian, they all had the tradition of carrying their families!

In many cases, the troops also have to invest a lot of time and energy, giving priority to ensuring the transfer or retreat of family members!

So, with a woman in the army, there is nothing to hide!

Swallowing the chicken legs, Cao Wenzhao hiccuped and smiled mysteriously: "General Man, open your eyes and take a good look, who is this person!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Man Gui looked carefully!

In the faint candlelight, I looked at it for a long time and stood up!

I'll it!

This woman is so familiar!

Isn't she the one who warmed the bed for the factory man, the Mongolian woman?

Why, it fell into the hands of Cao Wenzhao again?

That Huang Taiji made a big move, couldn't grab things but didn't leave, is it for this woman?

"That's right, it's for her!

In other words, Huang Taiji couldn't pull his face, and he was embarrassed to retreat! ”

"So what are you waiting for?" Man Gui's face was overjoyed: "Hurry up and eat your stomach, hurry up and return her to Huang Taiji!"

Hurry up and send away the plague god, hello, hello me, hello everyone! ”

"Nope! No way! ”

Cao Wenzhao shook his head and said, "She said that she will not return to Mongolia, let alone Huang Taiji's side!"

She would rather die than marry the factory father! ”

"Poof......

Man Gui couldn't help it, and sprayed a table of water!

Cao Wenzhao had expected it, and raised his hand in time to protect the few chicken legs left on the plate.

"Look at you like that! What the world has seen! ”

Cao Wenzhao's face was full of disdain, and he suddenly remembered something: "Come on, take the Duchess of the factory to the city to rest, so that you can live and serve!" ”

After that, he approached Man Gui with a flattering face: "General Man, you ...... For 5,000 silver, I bought the thing from the Song commander...... Can you borrow it and take a look? ”

"Poof......
