Chapter 614: Endless Beacon Fire (9)

"Your Excellency...... I can't stand it...... Commander Zhang's entire army was wiped out, and he himself was killed!" shouted a soldier who ran over with blood on his face.

"My lord, the right flank defense line has collapsed, and the Yuanmeng Tartars are attacking too fiercely......"

"Your Excellency...... There are Yuanmeng Tartars in the rear, and they are about to be surrounded......"

"Fellow Daoist...... Let's go...... "A Shushan monk fell from the sky, covered with crossbow arrows, and his last words before he died were said to Chu Xunyu.

"Adult ......"

“......”

Chu Xunyu had two crossbow arrows in his body, and he simply avoided the vital point, one was inserted in the thigh, and the other was stabbed in the shoulder, Chu Xunyu was furious, cut off the handle of the arrow, and his war horse was also hit by two arrows, but fortunately, there were six wounds on Chu Xunyu's body, completely relying on the hard support of the cultivator's body, and there were Yuan soldiers on the left and right, and the overwhelming Yuanmeng mage attacked from the sky, and a large number of Han cultivators' corpses fell down like rain, which was the moment of the Ming army's fiasco.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang has been called the emperor, the country name "Ming", began the southern expedition to the north, completely clear the Yuan and Mongolian Tartars in the Central Plains, this battle, that is, Xu Da led the northern expedition of the royal division, has captured the Yuan capital Beiping City, continue all the way to the north, march forward, and the two deputy generals Li Wenzhong and Feng Sheng, divided into left, middle and right three ways to lead the army to attack, as a result, Xu Da the Chinese army lightly advanced, in the ambush of the Yuan and Mongolian army, trapped in the Mongolian steppe.

Now Chu Xunyu has been promoted to the left servant of the military department, with 8,000 cavalry and 300 cultivators, as the vanguard of Xu Dazhong's military department, he went all the way to the north, but the plan was trapped, Chu Xunyu led the troops to rush and wanted to forcibly break through, but the Yuanmeng army was fully prepared this time, and all the elites were concentrated.

There are many reasons for the defeat of this battle, many years later, when Chu Xunyu and Mu Yuan talked about this matter, they thought that the root cause, in the final analysis, was the words "lightly attacking the enemy", and as a result, they were counterattacked by the stormy and powerful counterattack of the Yuanmeng army, which became the only defeat in Xu Da's life.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, a large-scale northern expedition was carried out, Xu Da served as the commander, Chang Yuchun was the deputy general, Sun Meng worshiped the military gate, and more than 40 generals led a number of Wang divisions to carry out purge operations in the Central Plains. Shanxi and the Yuan capital of Beiping hand, the Yuan and Mongolian forces did suffer a devastating blow, so that they fled north, and then, Chang Yuchun led the army to the south to march south, pacified the south, Sun Mengxuan led the troops to the northwest to garrison Juyong Pass, to resist the foreign Yi of Gansu, Xu Da sat in Beiping, and the soldiers and horses were ready to attack the sun, giving the Yuan and Mongolian Dynasty the last fatal blow, that is, this time, Xu Da made a fatal mistake.

Xu Da is the first person to make contributions to the founding of the Ming Dynasty, his life has made great achievements, he is a famous military strategist and strategist in history, he is a steady person, and he has a good way to use soldiers. After these years of war between the two sides in the Central Plains, the Yuan and Mongolian forces have retreated to the north, at this time the Yuan and Mongolian rulers lurking within the Gasa master came to the news, this person is later one of the four sons of Kunlun Yuxu, Duan Chenyu, he heard from the Yuan and Mongolian rulers that the Yuan and Mongolian forces are mobilizing all the elite forces in the rear from the grassland, and will organize a large-scale counteroffensive in the near future. Hearing this news, Xu Da misjudged that the Yuanmeng forces had no power to fight back, and the so-called mobilization of all the elite forces was just a hastily patched together of local chickens and dogs, but they couldn't let them take shape, so he decided to take the lead in attacking, attacking them unprepared, taking them by surprise, and disrupting their deployment first, so that there was this battle.

Because of this, Xu Dazhong's army was ambushed and fell into a Jedi, and the Yuan and Mongolian forces recalled all the remnants of the army for reintegration this time, a total of 200,000, all of them are fierce Mongolian cavalry, and all of them are veterans who have participated in the war for many years, and they only need to spend a few months secretly retraining, in addition, they also integrated the Yuan and Mongolian mages to attack more than 1,500 people, and set up camp on the Mongolian steppe, waiting for the follow-up forces to arrive.

Over the years, the Yuanmeng forces have recruited 300,000 soldiers on the grassland, equipped with more than 1,000 young Yuanmeng mages, trained for up to two years, originally used to defend the Yuanmeng lair, after discussion, the high-level rulers of Yuanmeng decided to put them into this counterattack, because over the years the war has been lost again and again, the entire clan has fallen into a depressed atmosphere, it is too necessary to use a victory to awaken the morale of the entire nation, and if you can recapture the Yuan capital with this attack, then regaining the world is just around the corner, so, to fight back, simply do it to the end, completely expand the scale of this battle, and raise the strength of the country, giving the Ming army a heart-wrenching counterattack.

But Xu Da's first attack really shocked the Yuanmeng forces, because all this was carried out secretly, strictly confidential, and little known, but now it is not entangled in this problem, since Xu Da personally attacked, and the depth is too long, there is a tendency for a lone army to go deep, so give a smooth push boat, head on the attack, and directly eat Xu Da's army, or even ...... Kill Xu Da. Xu Da is the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, if he dies, I am afraid that within two years, the army of the Ming Dynasty will be in a state of chaos, which is a great opportunity for the Yuanmeng forces to counterattack the Central Plains.

The news of Xu Da's trapped was transmitted to the sky, and the government and the opposition were shaken, but he didn't expect the Yuanmeng Dynasty to counterattack so violently this time, and according to the news sent back by Master Gasa, the follow-up 300,000 people of Yuanmeng were rapidly mobilizing from west to east, moving to the battlefield, preparing to annihilate Xu Da in one fell swoop with the 200,000 people who set up an ambush in front of the round, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly convened everyone to discuss the hall, and he must rescue Xu Da's department at all costs.

Xu Da himself was keenly aware of the mistake when he marched into the ambush circle, and immediately ordered the army to stop advancing, set up camp in place, dig fortifications, and then let Chu Xunyu take eight thousand hussars to the front to investigate, and at the same time sent a sentry to quickly send an order to the left, Li Wenzhong and Feng Sheng on the right flank approached him, and as a result, the Yuanmeng army launched a surprise attack at this time, and the ambush army arranged in advance along the way attacked at the same time, cutting Xu Da's waist into several sections, Chu Xunyu's cavalry was trapped in front, Li Wenzhong and Feng Sheng were also attacked, seriously dragging down the pace of their Chinese army's rendezvous, Xu Da's Chinese army was embattled, and the water that was surrounded was impassable. The right-wing troops, but the Yuanmeng army was attacking very fiercely, and they were ready for a decisive battle of life and death, and they had no intention of giving Xu Da a chance to breathe, and they were determined to let Xu Da completely confess here.

There was chaos in Yingtian City, this was an unexpected change, I never thought that the Yuanmeng forces still had such a huge elite combat power, Liu Bowen and Zhu Sheng offered a plan at the same time, advocating a break and a rescue, the situation was tense at this time, and the most likely person to rescue Xu Da was Chang Yuchun, but he was far away from the other end of Shenzhou, and there was no hope in a short time, so Liu Bowen suggested that Sun Mengxuan's troops should be transferred from Juyong Pass immediately, directly copying the back road of the Yuanmeng encirclement army, and Xu Dali should cooperate with the outside to save the situation; Zhu Sheng saw that the most critical thing at this time was the arrival of the follow-up troops of Yuanmeng, which was a powerful combat force, and must block the reinforcements and cut off their turns, but they are far away in the grassland behind the desert, where is the Yuanmeng lair, too far away, not at all within the scope of the Ming army, it is really difficult to do, so Zhu Sheng suggested asking for help from the Xiuzhen world, there are many anti-Yuan forces spontaneously formed by Han monks in the desert, such as the evil self-sect that chases the water is the first place in the desert, hoping to build a line of defense on the desert through them, delay the march of reinforcements, and provide time for Sun Mengxuan to rescue Xu Da.

In this context, contributed to the largest battle of cultivators in the history of mankind, all the participants in the war were cultivators, a total of more than 700 people, under the consciousness of national righteousness, abandoned the prejudice of the righteous and demonic, abandoned the past private hatred, cohesion, Kunlun, Shushan, Emei, Bohai Sword School, Mojia, Gong Loser, Legalist, Dream Gate, Hongdao Gate, Robbery Source Gate, The cultivators of various sects, large and small, such as the Chaoqu Sect and other sects who could rush to the battlefield in the northwest vicinity, were all recruited, led by the Evil Sect who was familiar with the desert terrain, and built a great wall of flesh and blood on the grassland far away from the Central Plains, facing the entire 300,000 ferocious Yuanmeng cavalry and as many as 1,000 Yuanmeng mages, and launched a desperate battle......

At the same time, Chu Xunyu was surrounded by a lone army, and he was also making a life-and-death breakthrough......
