Chapter 20: The Old Watch Gives Strength

In November, the weather in Beiping became colder and colder, and the temperature at night was more than ten or twenty degrees below zero, and the soldiers were miserable.

Fortunately, the marshal loves soldiers like children, is very considerate of people, and the military spirit is still the same.

However, the severe cold weather also brought great trouble to the army to attack the city.

Without him, the prince of Yan ordered people to water the city wall at night, which was extremely smooth after freezing, and the difficulty of climbing the city skyrocketed.

In addition, under the long-term attack, the Ming army was also tired, and they ate at the point, and they had to rest for a while after eating, and they were embarrassed to make the little fat in the city.

- The old watch is really powerful!

Zhu Gaochi's mother and son did guard well, but more importantly, the imperial army did not work hard.

In fact, the 500,000 army has basically not suffered much loss so far, and if you really want to attack the city to the death, it will still be easy to break it.

Near noon, the army withdrew, and then the smoke curled up, and the pot was buried to make food.

Li Jinglong rubbed his hands, sighed, and scolded: "It's really fucking cold, why hasn't King Yan come back yet, damn, there is not even a reason to withdraw from the army now." ”

Li Qing was also speechless, and muttered: "The fourth child is really big, do you want a wife and children?" ”

At this time, Zhu Di was still on the way back.

Moreover, it is already approaching Beiping.

In the evening, Zhu Di ordered the soldiers to be stationed, looked at the already clearly visible Beiping City, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Zhang Yu, pass the order, the army will rest for a day and night, and attack the southern army tomorrow night."

"Yes." Zhang Yu arched his hand and went back to give the order.

At this time, Zhu Neng turned his horse's head and came closer, frowning and said, "Your Highness, after tossing for the past few months, there are many soldiers, but... We don't have much food and grass, at most enough for more than ten days. ”

Zhu Di also has a headache, soldiers are no better than ordinary people, as long as there is a stutter, starvation will not die, people have to go to the battlefield desperately, not only to make people full, but also to make people eat well.

After all, this is not Lao Zhu's time, not to mention that he is rebelling against the imperial court.

Jingjing is just a slogan, and everyone understands the real situation.

If he doesn't serve this group of soldiers well, how can people be willing to die for him?

Zhu Di pondered for a long time, and said: "The southern army has 500,000, and there must be a lot of military needs, Zhu Neng, I will lead a large army to attack the camp at night, you will lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, and find an opportunity to rob them of grain and grass, as much as you can rob;

Of course, don't force yourself if you don't have the chance. ”

"The last will obey." Zhu Neng said yes.

The reason why Zhu Di arranged it this way is because Zhu Neng is different from Zhang Yu and other generals, Zhu Neng is really reckless, he is simply full of guts, and it is not false at all that 5,000 rushed into the 500,000 army.

"Qiu Fu."

"The end will be."

Zhu Di took a deep breath, "Go and inform the princess and prince in the city, let them gather all their forces and attack tomorrow night!" ”

……

The next day, the night.

Zhu Di personally led 40,000 cavalry, and Zhu Neng alone led 5,000 elites to prepare for attack.

At the same time, Li Jinglong also got the news of Zhu Di's help, and he immediately sent the main general Chen Hui to lead 10,000 horses to inquire about Zhu Di's specific movements.

Chen Hui didn't want to go, he already had a lesson from the past, and the example of Yang Song leading 9,000 cavalry was right in front of him, and it was definitely a meat bun to smash a dog.

"Commander, we just need to line up to meet each other." Chen Hui suggested, "No matter what plan King Yan makes, if we put hundreds of thousands of people into battle, what can he do to us?" ”

"Presumptuous!" Li Jinglong was furious, "You are the boss, I am the coach?" ”

“…… The last general is also kind! Chen Hui was about to cry, wasn't this clearly asking him to send it?

If you are blind in the dark, you really want to fight, the sword has no eyes, and you will probably have to explain.

Li Jinglong said lightly, "Ben Shuai doesn't accept your kindness, Ben Shuai only asks you to go or not?" ”

"I ......" Chen Hui was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother, but he didn't dare to disobey, pinched his nose and said, "The last general will take the order." ”

"Hey, that's right." Li Jinglong turned cloudy and sunny, patted Lao Chen's shoulder, and said with a pleasant face, "Don't hurt King Yan's life, of course, you have to be good, this is also the order of this commander." ”

Li Qing added with a smile: "You must protect yourself!" ”

Chen Hui's heart moved, his nervous mood suddenly relaxed, and he hugged his fists and said, "The last general will obey the order." ”

"Well, go ahead!"

In this way, Chen Hui set off with an army of 10,000.

Both sides were cavalry, and the distance was not far, and in just one hour, Chen Hui saw Zhu Di's army.

10,000 against 40,000, and it is necessary to ensure in the black light that he cannot hurt the life of King Yan, how dare Chen Hui go up recklessly.

Not only him, but also his generals and soldiers, are also numb.

At this time, Chen Hui decisively ordered: "Put out the torch and continue to look for the traces of King Yan." ”

It's clear that I've already found it, but I still want to find it, and its intention is self-evident.

But 10,000 troops, no one demolished, after all, no one wants to die.

Zhu Di also saw Chen Hui's men, but he didn't pay attention to it, because there was still Zhu Neng behind, and once he stopped fighting, he would lose a great opportunity to attack at night.

In this way, Chen Hui and Zhu Di passed by.

But Chen Hui was secretly glad that he was ready to take a detour and hurried back to report the news, but before he could implement it, he met Zhu Neng, who was ready to go.

Both of them were stunned, Chen Hui didn't light a torch here, and Zhu Neng didn't light a torch for fear of exposure.

No one knows how many people there are on the other side, and at this time, it is the spirit of the bright sword.

Obviously, in terms of guts, Chen Hui is far inferior to Zhu Neng.

"Kill ......!"

In an instant, the horse's hooves trampled, and Zhu Neng, who had only 5,000 cavalry, killed Chen Hui, who had 10,000 cavalry.

Before the fight started, Chen Hui was angry, and with the entrustment of the commander and the army, he had no intention of fighting.

"It's not good, I've been ambushed, retreat!" After Chen Hui finished roaring, he was the first to slip away.

There's no way, the coach and the army have said that when you go out, you must protect yourself.

However, Chen Hui has not forgotten his mission, and he must send the military intelligence back.

Whether to fight or not, how to fight, that is the boss's business, but if the military situation is delayed, then it is his business.

Chen Hui was about to smash the horse's buttocks, and finally returned to the camp one step ahead of schedule.

"Handsome... No, it's not good, King Yan has killed him. ”

Li Jinglong's eyes lit up and he roared, "How many people are coming?" ”

Chen Hui said succinctly: "There are two cavalry routes, one is led by King Yan, with more than 40,000, and the other is an unknown commander and an unknown number. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horses' hooves was heard.

Li Jinglong's mind was spinning, and he immediately issued an order: "Let Qu Neng father and son mobilize troops and horses to block them first, and the rest of the people will immediately prepare and prepare to meet the enemy!" ”

Li Qing's face was grim, and he understood that this time he was going to move seriously.

He never left Li Jinglong, the sword had no eyes, and under the black light, if he didn't get it right, the god of war might die in front of the battle.

The acting is released, only the highest level of both sides knows, and it is impossible for Zhu Di to notify it in place.

Everyone understands the truth of capturing thieves and capturing kings, and he doesn't want the god of war to be gone, both public and private.

Zhu Di killed too quickly, and in less than half an hour, he was already approaching, without leaving any hands, and rushed straight to the camp.

"Kill ......!"

The Northern Army swept the unrivaled momentum and entered the Southern Army.

The southern army didn't have time to prepare, and the killing was chaotic for a while, Zhu Di shouted while rushing to kill: I am the king of Yan, who dares to kill me!

With the gold medal for avoiding death, the masters of all walks of life will not dare to be ruthless at all.

They don't dare, Zhu Di doesn't talk about martial arts, he personally leads the three guards, and looks down on them.

Half an hour later, Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Gaochi recruited some young and strong people and gathered 20,000 people to come to support.

The scene was even more chaotic.

Li Jinglong was furious, the fourth child was so discouraged from martial arts, so he couldn't get off the stage.

"Damn, Lie Fang ......"

"Don't list, let's withdraw!" Li Qing frowned and said, "King Yan has already gambled on his entire net worth, and if he continues to fight, whoever wins will lose." ”

……

Zhu Di killed another pair of piercings, turned the horse's head, and did not immediately countercharge, but looked at the camp in the distance with burning eyes.

At this time, Sambo drove his horse to arrive.

"Your Highness, the seven-inch key point of the Southern Army is the Chinese Army, and the grain and grass are also among them!"

When Zhu Di heard this, his spirits were lifted, and he turned around and instructed, "Don't hurt the commander and supervisor of the Southern Army, follow me to kill." ”

The other side.

When Li Qing and Li Jinglong learned that Zhu Di's main force was coming to the Chinese army, they immediately guessed that it was for grain and grass.

This time, if you move the real character, you can be regarded as having an explanation.

Li Jinglong took a deep breath and decisively ordered: "Abandon unnecessary supplies and retreat the army." ”

The Southern Army was already distracted, and when they heard the order to retreat, they immediately did so.

……

The Northern Army did not chase and fight fiercely, but only chased perfunctorily for dozens of miles, and then gradually stopped.

Zhu Di didn't want to do too much, and at the same time, he didn't dare.

The cavalry is less than 50,000 and the infantry is 20,000, if Li Jinglong really wants to be in a hurry, one phalanx is enough for him to drink a pot.

In this battle, the southern army lost nearly 50,000.

Most of them are missing, because the commander-in-chief can't control the troops in a hurry, and it's a black light, and it's too easy for the soldiers to run.

And after getting rid of the Northern Army, Li Jinglong made another decision that surprised everyone.

Including Li Qing.

No one expected that this retreat would be pushed directly from Zhengba Village to Texas.

Retreated six hundred miles and withdrew from the river. North, retreated to the mountains .. East.

This is equivalent to putting the whole river... North, ceded to Zhu Di.

And Li Jinglong's reason is also very simple, to prevent King Yan from killing the Jingshi, if the King of Yan does not attack the Jingshi, then fight again in the spring of next year!

The news reached Jingshi, and the court fried the pot again.

The gentle and elegant little Zhu scolded her mother for the first time......
