I followed the baggage battalion. The three types of troops were already departing before, and they were all "changed defenses" in name. The baggage battalion was also named "mobile training". It went out of the east gate to the city defense, and went around for three or five miles, but turned around and headed northward and marched straight towards the western part of Jinzhou.

In the first month of the year, the northeast really turned into ice. Fortunately, the supplies camp was based on cars. The animals pulling the cart were all covered with cotton and linen. The soldiers in the cart took turns to push the cart. In addition, they were well-trained and well-equipped, so they could still stick to it.

There is another allusion here - when you first arrived in the north, on the first winter, Qi Jiguang rode alone at night, rushed to the capital from Jizhou at night, and rushed straight to the home of the chief assistant Zhang Juzheng. The people in Zhang Juzheng saw that it was Qi Jiguang, so they did not stop him at all, so Qi Jiguang went straight to Zhang Juzheng's bedroom, pulled the chief assistant up from his bed, and threw a new winter coat on the table in front of the chief assistant!

The chief minister was puzzled, so Qi Jiguang took out a dagger, cut the winter clothes apart, and then reached out and grabbed it to both sides! The black-hearted cotton inside was revealed! Zhang Juzheng was furious when he saw this and immediately decided to investigate the matter strictly. But when he sat down, he thought that the person responsible for the logistics was the mother of the current emperor, the Empress Dowager's father, the grandfather of the current emperor. If he investigated according to the law, he would be afraid that the royal family would not exist.

So Zhang Juzheng presented the winter clothes directly to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager also called her father to the palace to scold him for his solidarity, and was sentenced to stand in the snow for one day. Then he was exempted from the position of logistics management and went home to work for an unemployment.

Since then, the supplies of the Qi family army have returned to normal levels, and the officers and soldiers are no longer afraid of the cold. In addition, the Qi family army is most endurance during training, so although it is hard, no one complains. However, this incident also has sequelae. After Zhang Juzheng's death, the empress dowager held a grudge about this matter, saying that Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang formed a clique for personal gain, and then the Zhang family was destroyed. Qi Jiguang was depressed and ended up being depressed. Of course, this is a later story and has nothing to do with the current war. I won't mention it for now.

I was in the same car as Ye Sizhong, and there were other officers in the camp. Since it was a night trip and there was still a considerable distance to the designated location, everyone rushed to take a break and keep up their spirits.

By dawn the next day, halfway through the journey, the camp stopped to make a fire to make rice. I sat on the box next to the fire with hot noodle soup, roasted hot cakes, and pickles, slowly chewing food. Ye Sizhong leaned over and thought he had something to say.

I saw him sitting on a box next to me with a smile, took a sip of soup, and then said with a smile: "Qi Lan, according to the governor, you have been afraid of heavy weight since you were young, and your uncle also said that you are afraid of cold and heat. I was worried that you can't stand the cold. I didn't expect you to be okay! You can stand it hard!" As he said that, he took a bite of dry food and smiled at me. I knew that he was not talking about this, so he rolled his eyes, snorted, and said unhappily: "Can I not go if I cry?"

Ye Sizhong laughed and said for a while, "That's not OK!" After saying that, he changed his posture, got closer a little bit, and lowered his voice and asked me terrifiedly: "Qi Lan, what's the chance of winning this time?" I looked at him and couldn't help laughing. You're scared, little! I deliberately didn't speak or look at him, picked up the hot soup sips and blew while blowing. Ye Sizhong waited for a long time, a little anxious, and pressed me with his right elbow and said anxiously: "You said it! You're still hiding with me!" I rubbed my arms and smiled, "I'm afraid of you! Lord Qi Bian! Ninety percent! Ninety percent!"

Ye Sizhong was stunned, took a breath, put down his breakfast, and said for a while: "So high? Qi Lan, you need to know about this incident. You and I are the masterminds, or you are the masterminds, I am the masterminds! If there is a mistake, you and I are two grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can escape! When you behead your head, I will have to search the house. Are you still joking here?"

After hearing this, I simply acted like a fool, threw down the dry food, lay on the box, and pretended to be fooled, "If you want to kill, kill it! I admit it! Kill it! Kill!"

Ye Sizhong stood up and kicked me, and said angrily: "Get up and talk well!"

I sat up with a smile, grabbed his sleeve and said, "Hey hey hey! Sir, please sit down, let me tell you in detail." Ye Sizhong was still angry, and hummed, sat down heavily beside me, but deliberately did not look at me.

I pretended not to see it, smiled, and said to myself: "It is unrighteous for the Tatars to invade us, and it is unrighteous for us to protect our family and territory. We will take 30% of the unrighteousness with great justice." This is Sun Tzu's view on the Art of War. Although it is a bit empty, it is irrefutable. Ye Sizhong nodded angrily.

I smiled and continued, "The enemy besieged Jinzhou in the bright, and I scattered around in the dark. If the darkness rises and attacks the brightness, we will have another 30% chance of winning!"

Ye Sizhong nodded, glanced at me and asked, "What else?"

I pretended to be serious and said, "The enemy is all cavalry, and there is no danger to bear. I am a natural danger to defend the city. If there is a dangerous attack, there is no danger. Conservatively, at least 30% will be added!"

Ye Sizhong nodded again, nodded, thought for a while, and then asked, "What about 10%?"

I stood up, held my hands behind my back, looked at the direction of Jinzhou City, and said slowly: "There is only 10% left, it depends on how good Li Chengliang is!"

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the baggage battalion reached its designated location - a small hill 20 miles southwest of Jinzhou City. The officers and soldiers, as usual, connected cars and cars, built an artificial city wall on the hidden open side of the mountain facing Jinzhou! This car body is thick, and after being connected, the horses cannot collide. It is the natural enemy of the cavalry! With this, we are almost invincible in the face of the cavalry!

Ye Sizhong and I climbed to the top of the mountain with a few close friends, looking at the direction of Jinzhou from afar, and saw that the enemy and us were in full swing! The enemy cavalry could not directly attack the city, so we let some cavalry dismount and turn into infantry, pushing the ladder to climb the city wall, mainly attacking the west, north, and feinting the east and south. On the wall, Li Chengliang's troops fought with all their strength and repelled the enemy's attack on the city wall many times! But under the suppression of the enemy's bow and arrow, there were also considerable casualties. We looked for a moment, and Ye Sizhong said: "It seems that there is no problem."

I nodded, and sighed after a moment: "One piece of loess buried the loyal bones, and the three petals of heart fragrance hang on the heroic soul."

Ye Sizhong turned his head and looked at me, patted my shoulder and said, "War, how can there be no immortal? Today is them, tomorrow is you and me, let's take a look!"

As night fell, according to the plan, the encirclement troops around should be in place. In the years without mobile phones, everything can only be trusted, and there is still a estimation. Ye Sizhong and I were wearing winter clothes and stood on the top of the mountain to watch quietly. I saw that Jinzhou City was brightly lit in the distance, and the Tatars attacked the city overnight without stopping! The corpses under the city pulled away layer after layer, but the soldiers in the back row were still like ants, using the ladder to climb up the city!

Our army on the city wall seemed to be very difficult to resist, but in fact the reserve force was still very sufficient. On this meat grinder-like battlefield, no matter where you can't bear it, no matter where you can lose. At this point, both sides have reached a time of exhaustion. The moment we have made a final decision, it is probably coming!

At this moment, a light spot suddenly flew out from the distant sky! I know that this is the Central Army's cannon! With a sound of "Boom! Click!", this is an attack order that had been initiated! Sure enough, the other three directions flew up the cannons one after another to respond to the Central Army's order!

For a moment, the torches suddenly lit up and were everywhere! Shouting and killing sounds were everywhere, and all the ambush troops outside our army came out in the direction of Jinzhou! The Tumote tribe of the besieged Tatars was in chaos for a while, and hurriedly turned around to meet the enemy!

Just when both sides were about to take over the enemy, our front team stopped and stood with spears to block the enemy cavalry offensive! He shot his chariots with bows and arrows, and after a while, the team's chariots gradually came to an end! This was almost equivalent to building another Great Wall in front of the Tatars! The enemy's cavalry must have a considerable sprint distance to exert their power, but our army had already greatly broken through the shortest distance to their sprint! The soldiers rely on the chariots, and the muskets fired in turn, which greatly injured the enemy cavalry!

The entire night sky seemed to be ignited by the scorching fire! After more than twenty miles, you could feel the indifference in the air! Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, the cannon suddenly sounded in Jinzhou City behind the Tatars, and Li Chengliang's army bravely broke out of the city! Our army was in and out, attacking from all sides, and Tumot's troops were caught off guard and turned over! For a moment, the two sides fought to the death! The sound of shouting and killing was straight through the sky!

After killing in the middle of the night, both sides were exhausted. At this time, dense war drums suddenly sounded on the southwest side of the hill where I was! I knew that it was time to harvest! My cavalry came out from behind the mountain, and with the inertia of the downhill, they accelerated all the way, shouting and sprinting towards the left army of the Tumot army! The Tumot army had no choice but to pull out a cavalry and turn to face our cavalry team!

On the one hand, the new force that defends the country and revenges with all his might, and also sprints to the limit with the great downhill advantage; on the other hand, the invaders who fought hard for several days, were exhausted and killed, and were in a disadvantageous position to climb the hill. The victory and defeat of both sides seemed to be destined from the beginning! Our cavalry was like a hot knife cutting into butter, moving forward! Go forward! In less than a stick of incense, the enemy's left army had already penetrated!

The left army of Tumot's troops was immediately defeated! Yu Qi fled in a hurry!

The most important thing for close combat is morale. Once one side is shaken, the other side will be extremely arrogant! When Tumot's army saw the defeat of the left army, the morale was shaken! He heard a shout from our barracks. After three rounds of artillery fire, the soldiers jumped out of the Checheng and began to charge back! Our cavalry team turned around as a whole, turned around the team, and then walked towards the enemy's right side in a cone shape to start a new round of charge! Li Chengliang's army under the city guarded the city gate, killing the bodies piled up like mountains, and still fighting to the death!

A quarter of an hour later, the right army of Tumot's troops were completely defeated!

"The overall situation is settled." I stood at the top of the mountain and let out a long sigh. Ye Sizhong nodded, sighed and said, "Yes!" Then he turned around and asked the rescue team to prepare and go to the front line at any time. At this moment, I suddenly heard a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from a distance. When I looked up, it was a defeated enemy army, with about 500 cavalry, galloping towards our baggage battalion! At this time, should we retreat to the defense line and defend according to the danger? Or should we rely on the top of the mountain and attack the enemy unprepared? How should we make a decision?
Chapter completed!
