150 Ambush the northern city on all sides, and the Ming army deceived and lured Polo
On the second day, Zhu Qiyu left Wenrou Township early, preparing to go to the city to watch the battle in person.
Although the warm, fragrant quilt of the two little beauties is extremely fascinating. But today is really a big day, and Zhu Qiyu has to do his best to deal with it.
Ning Xiang and Linglong reluctantly served Zhu Qiyu dressed up and went out, and when they were lost, Zhu Qiyu turned around and walked back.
Ning Xiang asked curiously, "What's wrong with the master, did you drop something?" ”
Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "Hey, today is too important, if you don't know it, your husband will kill people with his own hands." I'm really a little angry about this, you two come and kneel, I want you two to go again. ”
When the second daughter heard this, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly came over and knelt at Zhu Qiyu's feet to serve with her heart.
……
After venting, Zhu Qiyu's heart was happy, and he felt that his body was full of strength and courage.
It's just a bit of a toss like this, Ning Xiang changed Zhu Qiyu into a new set of clothes inside and out, and then let Zhu Qiyu leave.
Considering that he had made a promise to the guards to let the princess come to the city to cheer in person, Zhu Qiyu brought Lin Xiangyu, Yu Qianxue, and Yu Suxi all with him. Surprisingly, the two little girls, Qianxue and Suxi, were not nervous about watching the game at all, but looked forward to it.
There are many people who are also excited and looking forward to it.
Yesterday, while Warat focused his attention on Changyimen and Yuantucheng, He Yi and Huang Pu had already been stationed in Yingzhouwei and Tiancewei respectively to officially perform the duties of counselors.
Their counselors' military affairs are not particularly the same as those of Chen Xun and Wang Wen. In order to enhance the prestige of Chen Xun, the current first assistant, and Wang Wen, the future first assistant, Zhu Qiyu deliberately gave the two such an opportunity to brush up their qualifications and make military achievements, and they did not need to really assist in the military.
And He Yi and Huang Pu really brought Zhu Qiyu's battle plan to assist the commanders of the two guards and implement the will of the new monarch.
By the time Zhu Qiyu ascended to the top of the city, Yingzhou Weizhong had already assembled the commanders Xu Tong and Gu Zhong, the counselor He Yi for military affairs, Li Xuan in front of the army, Liu Chang, the commander of the internal guard, and Ruan Xi of the Yingzhou Weijian Army.
Although most of these people are temporary positions, all of them are Zhu Qiyu's real henchmen. As soon as the war is over, a big reward will be given.
The Tiancewei and Shenji battalions located on the right flank of Yingzhou Wei are similar. Tiancewei commander, Chengshan Marquis Wang Tong, counselor military affairs Huang Pu, and Shenji battalion supervisor Zhang Yong, these are also Zhu Qiyu's cronies.
The Xiaocai Battalion, which is located on the left wing of Yingzhou Wei, and part of the elite of the Shenji Battalion, are also highly valued by the new monarch. Xu Heng, the Marquis of Xing'an, Fan Guang, the governor of the city, and Wang Cheng, another supervisor of the Shenji Battalion, were also Zhu Qiyu's cronies.
Today, with the dense residential area between Deshengmen and Yuantucheng as the main battlefield, with the Yingzhou Guard stationed here as the main combat force, and the elite of the Xiaocai Battalion, the elite of the Shenji Battalion and the Tiance Guard, and the main force of the Shenji Battalion as the two wings, the Ming Army of Beicheng wants to make a break with the three Polo brothers.
Xu Heng and Fan Guang got up early in the morning, and ordered the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Shenji Battalion to assemble in Tucheng and stand by, ready to attack at any time.
Chengshan Marquis Wang Tong and Tao Jin have also already sharpened their troops and horses, sharpening their knives. However, according to the agreement between Zhu Qiyu and Polo, only when the Polo army was defeated and fled first and left the battlefield, the Ming army on the right flank could join the battlefield. This also determined the main task of the Ming army on the right flank, which was to sweep the battlefield and harvest the rout.
Therefore, at Huang Pu's suggestion, Wang Tong and Tao Jin directly took the entire army out of the camp and lined up, and mixed the Shenji Battalion and Tiance Wei into two teams of 10,000 people. The firearms troops of the Shenji Battalion are the main guard, and the cavalry troops of the Tiance Guard are the main attackers, ready to join the battlefield at any time.
When Zhu Qiyu took the three princesses, as well as the nobles such as Dingguo Gong, Chengguo Gong, Zhenyuan Marquis, Xining Marquis, Jin Wang and Ninghua Wang, and Chen Xun, Wang Wen and other ministers to the city, the Gaotai Xiaojing Temple had been built.
The north-facing front of the Kokyo Temple is still covered with a white cloth, but when viewed from the side, it is also very scary.
The two little princesses, Qianxue and Su Xi, who were still excited, were so frightened that they almost fell to the ground when they saw the 4,200 human heads neatly piled up on the high platform. Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu and Lin Xiangyu pulled one by one and firmly supported a pair of little sisters.
But no one laughed at the two little princesses, because the other big men were not much better.
Even the King of Ninghua, the ancestor of Uncle Zhu Qiyu, was so frightened that his legs were weak and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Zhu Qiyu has always said that he wants to build a 40,000-headed Dajing Temple, but others just laughed at it in their hearts. But today everyone couldn't laugh: just a small Jingguan with a mere 4,000 people in front of him was already terrifying.
If this is to use ten times the head of the person to build a big Beijing view, when it is really presented in front of the world, I am afraid that it can really scare people to pee.
Zhu Qiyu also omitted the pre-war mobilization speech, and just sat on another small high platform that had been set up in advance, so that he only needed to sit and have a full view of the scene on the battlefield.
The three princesses sat next to Zhu Qiyu, and the others sat behind Zhu Qiyu. Everyone was silent, quietly waiting for the two sides to start a battle.
It didn't take long for there to be movement on the battlefield. First, Liu Deli led an army of 30,000 and began to circle to the rear of Polo to intercept the retreat of Polo's army. At the same time, Shi Heng, Sun Bo, Liu Ju and others, the guards of Xicheng, also led the whole army out of the camp, responsible for blocking the army of Yexian, preventing the main force of Warat from joining the battlefield and rescuing Polo.
Polo didn't care about the actions of the other Ming troops, firstly, he had enough trust in the promise of the Great Tomorrow, and secondly, even if the Great Tomorrow violated the agreement, after his own victory, the Ming army could not afford to lose, and he could quickly leave the battlefield with the cavalry and join the main force of Warat.
This is the advantage of pure cavalry, and the full confidence that this advantage brings to Polo.
Although in less than half a day, Polo will be killed alive by the confidence brought by the superiority of cavalry, but Polo is still full of confidence.
After all sides were ready, Polo first sent hundreds of cavalry to carry out a tentative attack on the area of the civilian houses.
After a night of thinking, Polo also figured out that the defense of Yuantu City was too tight, and it would definitely not be able to be attacked. Therefore, Polo no longer made useless attempts, but divided the army into two, with 8,000 people separated between Yuantu City and the residential area, and 8,000 people attacked the residential area.
Polo wanted to learn from Sun Bin and come to Wei to rescue Zhao, first severely wounded the weaker 8,000 people in the residential area, and forced Xu Heng to lead the army out of Yuan Tucheng and come to the rescue. Then surround the point to send reinforcements, and have a head-to-head duel with Xu Xiang's elite of the 5,000 border army.
So 300 heavily armed Varat cavalry broke into the house area from the north, and another 300 Warat cavalry broke into the house area from the west. The two cavalry entered the area of the private house, and only after more than 100 steps, there were crossbowmen of the Ming army who had already been ambushed, and they all took advantage of the cover of the wall to fire arrows at the Wara cavalry.
All of a sudden, the Warat cavalry were shot one after another, but these cavalry were already armed to the teeth. The arrows of the Ming army either hit the iron armor of the Wara cavalry and were bounced off and fell to the ground, or a small part penetrated the gaps between the iron armor.
It's just that the Warat cavalry is still wearing a layer of leather armor under the iron armor, even if the arrows can shoot on the leather armor, but the strength is exhausted, and it can't do any damage.
Seeing this, the Ming army, except for a small group of people who still insisted on shooting in vain, most of them retreated one after another.
By the time the 600 cavalry marched to 500 paces, the two cavalry had already converged, and at this time, the Ming army's arrow rain had sparsely sparsely and could not form a climate, as if it was tickling the Wara cavalry.
The leading general waved his hand and signaled the cavalry to stop advancing, and then exchanged views with the adjutant general. Both of them felt that the temptation was almost the same, and the Ming army was like that.
Before the two of them could discuss and understand, they saw smoke and dust rising in the distance, and from a distance, there seemed to be thousands of Ming troops, fleeing towards Deshengmen. Immediately afterwards, a fire broke out in the area on the south side of the house, and it was suspected that the Ming army was burning grain and grass, preparing to abandon the camp and flee.
The two generals looked at each other, their faces were happy, and they hurriedly led their troops to withdraw and report to Polo.
After Polo listened, he asked his younger brothers King Datong and King Saihan for advice.
King Saihan was more cautious: "Brother, this new monarch of the Ming Dynasty is not like such a straw man, since he dares to play a fair game with us, his army cannot be so vulnerable." ”
When the king of Datong heard this, he retorted with a smile: "Not necessarily, when Emperor Tai of the Ming Dynasty was still the orthodox emperor, he personally led an army of 500,000 to Shanxi. At that time, we never dreamed that the army of the Son of Heaven would be vulnerable, but what is the truth, if we surround the civil fort, the Ming army itself will collapse.
Although the scene was also incredible, it just happened. I forgot that my eldest brother had just heard that his subordinates had captured the orthodox emperor, and he was also shocked and doubtful about life. It wasn't until I saw the emperor in person that I dared to believe that there was such a fantastic thing in the world.
Now the things in front of us are exactly the same as the orthodox emperor's personal expedition to Shanxi, this is the old problem of the Ming army again, I don't think you need to hesitate anymore, hurry up and kill it. Otherwise, if you go late, and the Ming army's grain, grass and baggage will be burned in a while, what will the brothers and sisters rob? ”
The general who came back to report the news also persuaded: "Don't worry, marshal, even if you are ambushed, it's nothing, the arrows of the Ming army can't penetrate our iron armor at all, it's great, let's just retreat."
There are no trenches in this area of private houses, nor are there any rejection of horses, and the Ming army has no way to intercept and kill in the narrow area inside, so we can retreat at any time if we want. Don't miss the opportunity, please don't hesitate any longer. ”
