Chapter 211 Invincible Escape
Chapter 211: Invincible
Tens of thousands of Tartars gathered desperately in the direction of Boyan Khan. Their numbers were too large, and their fighting will became extremely tenacious. The Ming army could not stop the assembly of the Tatar army, so they took advantage of the opportunity that their formation was divided and had not yet closed, and tried their best to kill and kill lives.
The team of cavalry vanguards who were galloping into the boiling battlefield, and with a violent "clang" sound, the sky fork in the Tatars was hit by the big sword in the galloping past knight's palm. An irresistible force of Shenxiong led it to fly more than two feet away.
The second knight arrived, with the blade tilted forward, and with the momentum of the fast horse, he easily cut off the head of the Tartar who had lost his weapons. The headless corpse still stood up for a moment before spitting out a burst of blood and limply on the ground.
The Tartars who were fighting on horseback knew that they could not compete with the Ming soldiers who rushed over with their horsepower. In desperation, several Tartars threw their guns and halberds as guns. The Tartars, who stood farther, quickly drew their bows and arrows, and shot several arrows in succession to slightly block the Ming army's rushing momentum.
However, their formation had not yet been established, and the subsequent cavalry rushed over one after another. The leading general was Jing Foer. He was ordered to guard Feihu Duo to prevent someone from following Duoyan's three guards from rushing to the pass. Seeing the beacon smoke passing on the Great Wall, he and Feihu Duo immediately were on full alert to prevent foreign enemies from invading. However, he later saw the beacon smoke ignited on Bai Deng Mountain and realized that it was not good.
Although there were beacons on Bai Deng Mountain, it was not available to use it, and it was a purely unnecessary setting. No matter how strong Boyan's military power was, it would be impossible to break through the Great Wall Pass in such a short time. If the Maitreya scholar gathered people to rebel and besieged Bai Deng Mountain, the five thousand troops on the mountain and the seven thousand ambush soldiers in Datong City would be enough to destroy them ten times.
So what happened to the beacon smoke on Bai Deng Mountain? Jing Foer's first reaction was that the three guards of Duoyan were cheating. They led their troops up the mountain, and the alliance was fake, and the lord-killing and assassination was real. Except for the five thousand elite soldiers of Duoyan's three guards, who could threaten the Ming army so quickly? Therefore, Jing Foer did not think about it at all and immediately led more than a thousand of his brothers back to rescue him.
When Jing Foer arrived at the foot of the mountain, he was shocked. Where did so many Tartar soldiers appear? But at this time he didn't care about asking so many. Since the two sides were fighting, it was serious to kill people honestly and unceremoniously.
A heavy thick-backed machete in Jing Foer's palm was stabbed with a knife. The sword was wiped through the chest of a Tartar general with a protective iron armor. Mars suddenly rose, and the protective armor cracked a scary mouth, and blood immediately burst into tears.
The knife was not fatal, but the Tartar general was stabbed down from his horse. He rolled on the ground several times. Before he could get up, the rumbling horse hooves had already trampled past him.
The howling and struggle lasted for only a moment. When the horse's hooves that were as big as a bowl were stepped on his back, he no longer reacted. He waved his swords frantically. He tore his bones and flesh ruthlessly, and it was like chopping melons and vegetables. Every cold light fell, and blood splattered.
The melee began. On the plains under Baideng Mountain, people, bows, arrows, guns and other long-range attack weapons were all lost. Everyone could only pick up swords, guns, swords and halberds to find their opponents to fight. The heads rolled on the ground, the broken limbs flew across the board, the thrilling screams and the sound of hooves, which seemed to be the hell on earth and the Shura killing field.
Until this moment, Yang Ling's heart was relieved. He hurriedly grabbed Zhengde, turned over and bowed, and said happily: "Congratulations to the emperor, the emperor is determined to make plans and command. If Boyan fails to steal the chicken, he will lose his money this time."
Zhengde's handsome white face was also as if a ghost-drawn talisman was smoked, and his eyes were red. But the expression on his face was very happy. He hurried forward and helped Yang Ling up, and couldn't help but say happily: "Yang Aiqing, please get up quickly. Which two reinforcements are at the foot of the mountain? They came so timely that I will be rewarded!"
Seeing the opportunity, Zhang Yong and Miao Kui hurriedly stepped forward and praised it. Hua Dang and others just saw that the mountain was almost broken, and their hearts were in their throats. They knew that they had been hit by Yang Ling's delayed military strategy. They were coaxed and lured by him to send all the elite troops to help him guard the mountain, waiting for the army to surround Boyan. In fact, it was the Emperor of Ming that had been attacked by others, but he was just a charity and a heavenly figure, and now he has been able to escape danger.
The situation is better than others, and Zhengde is the big winner now. Who would say that it is a boring thing?
They both knew each other tacitly, but this bet was the right bet anyway, Huadang and the leaders rushed forward and complimented Khan Tian.
Yin Qi glanced at Yang Ling and whispered: "Your luck is good!"
The siege was resolved, as if he had moved the heavy stone in his heart. Yang Ling felt relaxed and couldn't help but smile and said, "I have always been lucky, but I just made you unable to do anything, and I'm so sorry."
"Yinqi, come here to see Tian Khan!" Hua Dang greeted him, then bowed to Zhengde and stroked his chest and said, "The noble Tian Khan, this is the youngest daughter of Yin Qi, and she must follow the young minister to meet Tian Khan. I am afraid that her king will lose her etiquette, so I pretend to be a guard beside me."
When Yin Qi heard her father call her, he snorted coldly at Yang Ling without any objection, and strode forward to salute Zhengde.
Seeing that after a melee at the foot of the mountain, the Ming army had rushed to the foot of the mountain to gather into a human wall, and the Tatar soldiers on the opposite side gradually gathered together. The two sides knew the barriers were tight at a glance, and said, "Your Majesty, I will go down the mountain to meet the generals in command."
Zhengde nodded and allowed. Yang Ling immediately led more than a hundred guards to rush down the mountain. At this time, the Tatar army had assembled, and the total number was still more than 10,000 more than the Ming army. Wang Shouren was on guard against Boyan's attack. The Tatar banner pointed at the strange roaring sound, and the army quickly broke away from the battle formation and ran towards Datong.
Yang Ling rushed to Wang Shouren, and the two of them became familiar with each other in the capital. At this moment, they didn't have time to greet each other. Wang Shouren just nodded quickly and immediately ordered the central army to wave the military flag and order, and then covered the killing.
Wang Shouren knew that the emperor was on the mountain and did not dare to send all the cavalry. Moreover, the entire army was still far inferior to the other side, so it was impossible to wipe out Boyan. Moreover, there were Tatars outside Datong City, and the two armies were even more unstoppable to join forces. Therefore, he ordered the two guerrilla generals to stop and drive away the wolf out of the pass. He left three thousand cavalry to protect the horses at the foot of the mountain, and accompanied him to the mountain.
When Jing Foer saw the Tartars escape, he immediately led his people to chase after him with a loud shout, chasing the Tartars' horse's butt. It was too late to call him. Wang Shouren had not met him in the chaos, and had not had time to figure out which reinforcements were this.
When Boyan fled, it was a rare opportunity to chase and kill the defeated soldiers. Wang Shouren led his army to fight with the Tatars in an extremely fierce manner. Why did the Tartars get cautious when they escaped? Yang Ling was full of doubts and was very puzzled by Wang Shouren's arrangements. When he went up the mountain, he raised his questions in his heart.
Wang Shouren had a great impression of Yang Ling. One of him and Yang Yiqing was idle at home and the other was imprisoned in a prison. He was able to be re-activated and entrusted with important tasks, and it was all due to Yang Ling's mediation. Mr. Wang Hua had already mentioned these things to his son, so he felt more friendly when he saw him.
After hearing his question, Wang Shouren smiled bitterly: "If the Huzhi expected, the Guhumen was already in the hands of the Tatars, and they had to break through the border with their cavalry speed. No one could stop them. Our advantage lies in relying on their troops to fight head-on, and chasing and attacking far-distance has never been the leader of our army. Moreover, the Tartars can shoot a hundred feet away in the battle, and they are especially good at the 'Mangu archery technique'..."
Seeing Yang Ling raised his eyebrows and expressed doubts, he explained: "That is to say, they are superb in the land riding skills. They can run backwards while escaping arrows. Sir, our bows and arrows are not as long as the Tartars, and we are chasing forward. They are facing the arrows shot by the Tartars, but the Tartars are fleeing forward. They are avoiding our army's arrows, and they are escaping after escaping and becoming the escapers. On the contrary, most of the pursuers have lost. In the past, the Mongolian cavalry expeditioned all countries and used this method of escape to win many battles."
"And the Mongolian horse looks short, but its endurance is extremely strong. It can run for a long distance, and it can survive in the wild regardless of the severe cold and heat. Our cavalry has just arrived and is already tired. Speaking of which, both the number of people and the combat power are much worse, but we have occupied the advantageous people and Boyan has no intention of fighting."
"And Mongolian horses also have the lowest requirements for environmental and food. Whether it is plateau desert or grassland, Mongolian horses can find food at any time. Mongolian soldiers do not bring supplies when fighting. One is that they rely on plunder to support the war, and the other is that their land horses are mostly mares, which can provide horse milk to survive.
People in the world only think that Mongolian soldiers are both good at cavalry and shooting, but they do not know that their escape skills are the best in the world. They are best at killing the enemy while running away and dragging the enemy to win. Therefore, unless you are sure to force the enemy to fight head-on, no matter when and where, the combat force is less than them, and when they cannot force them to fight head-on, you must never chase them."
Yang Ling heard the ground brows and said frightenedly: "After Master Wang said, I was frightened. The grassland and desert are their natural hunting grounds. If they are not allowed to kill each other and consume their strength, our army will be twice as big as the enemy. If we want to deal with tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of Tatar troops in the desert, we don't know how much the price we have to pay."
Wang Shouren said happily: "That's true, so even though it is in the territory of our Ming Dynasty, since we cannot fully annihilate Boyan and the fire screen, it's better to let them escape back to the grassland together. When the master's wonderful plan takes effect, we will invite them back."
The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling like heroes appreciate each other.
The three guards of Duoyan also fought against the Tatars and the Ming army from time to time. They were familiar with the combat power and maneuverability of both sides. When they saw that Boyan led his army to break through, the Ming army, whose troops were inferior to the Tatars, chased him behind, and they expected that it would be impossible to wipe out all the Tatars here in this battle.
However, the 45,000 elite Tatars were killed and injured, and nearly 10,000 people were not much for the Ming Dynasty. They knew what it meant to the grassland tribe. Moreover, there were Ming troops in front of them to return to aid. When they really rushed out of the pass, I wonder how many people would die, one was rising and the other was getting worse, and with the support of the Ming Dynasty, Huadang seemed to have seen the throne of the Mongolian Khan waving to him.
Huadang immediately said goodbye to Zhengde with joy. Boyan would definitely escape back to the desert after leaving the seclusion, blocking their way back to the three guards of Duoyan, so they had to take this opportunity to leave quickly. At the same time, if the Tatars seized food and grass from Duoyan, they could also make preparations early.
Zhengde immediately agreed and ordered people to take out the 5,000 taels of gold from the cave that were placed there in advance, and prepared to give it to the three guards of Yan, fifty boxes of silk and tea bricks, and give it to the flower dunk. The remaining three thousand Yan cavalrymen carried the beautiful fantasy of becoming the king of the desert, and under the guidance of the Ming knights, they rode towards the flying fox ferry.
As soon as they left, Zhengde called Wang Shouren and asked about his identity. When he learned that he was the son of the Grand Secretary Wang Hua, the former Grand Tutor of the Emperor, he couldn't help but say happily: "It's great. As expected, the tiger father has no dog son. The beloved minister rescued the emperor in time and severely defeated the Tatars. His contributions are in the country. After returning to the capital, I will reward him according to his merits."
After saying that, his face darkened, and he said sternly: "I and Yang Qing have set up a clever plan to eliminate the Tartars' 100-year troubles. Now the goal of dividing the two leaders of the Tatars has been done, and the purpose of forming an alliance with the three guards of Duoyan to drive away wolves and fight against tigers has been done. But what is Yang Yiqing, the general manager of the three sides?
I have a natural trench in the Great Wall to guard, and I have sent 100,000 troops to the pass, but outside this Datong City, the entire army of Boyan entered the country and almost took my head! Yang Yiqing's crime is unforgivable! I must deal with him heavily!"
The little emperor showed a fierce murderous aura, which shocked Wang Shouren. Yang Yiqing was going to be bad.
He thought for a moment before saying slowly: "I was following the fire sieve. When I saw the beacon smoke rising, I came to rescue you. I didn't know the details of Boyan's entry into the pass, so I was inconvenient to argue...
But when I was following Boyan, his army showed no sign of fighting, so I easily crossed the pass and went straight into the pass. I suspected that someone among the border generals had an affair with Tatars. Yang Zhengyi had just taken office and led his army to fight, but he could not take into account the purging of the guards in various passes. If... if someone opened the switch and bowed to the enemy, it was not the crime of Yang Zhengyi's war..."
Ineffective command and heavy damage caused, it would be enough to go to jail. Now the emperor met with the three guards of Duoyan in Baideng Mountain. He had already known Yang Yiqing in advance. Five thousand elite troops from the Beijing camp guards were guarding against the internal thieves in the Maitreya Sect and guarding against the external capture. However, Boyan's army easily passed through his defense zone. The unrestrained land appeared at the foot of Baideng Mountain, almost trapping the emperor and the death place, and beheading was light.
Wang Shouren did not dare to exonerate him directly, but clicked this lightly, and then looked at Yang Ling earnestly. The only places where he could tell the emperor were probably Zhang Yong and Yang Ling. Zhang Yong was not familiar with him, so he had to ask Yang Ling to come forward to plead.
His implication is that Yang Yiqing is responsible for regional defense because of the trilateral general system. But this time, Boyan knocked on the gate not because Yang Yiqing was improperly in command. Instead, there was support from the internal thief. This mistake was the rebirth of Zhuge Wuhou. He could not prevent it in advance. Could it be that a newly appointed general replaced all the generals of the three thiefs with his own confidant? If we really want to investigate it, it seems that the talents who promoted the internal thief to the border to serve.
Yang Ling understood what he meant, so he hurriedly walked up to Zhengde and whispered: "As soon as the emperor succeeded the Grand Priest, he met with the three guards of Duoyan at Baideng Mountain, established alliances and mutual assistance, and calmed down Liaodong. This is a great achievement of Wenzhu. He used his own strategy to attract the enemy to the trap, and defeated the enemy with less than 10,000 enemies. He created the greatest achievement of Emperor Yongle since the Northern Expedition, and this is a great achievement of martial arts.
Yang Zhengzheng had just arrived at the border and severely defeated Boyan, and divided his troops to attack the enemy's rear. He divided the Tatars for the emperor and made unparalleled achievements. This was a rare general. Boyan's entry into the pass was not a crime of war. If he was severely punished, he would inevitably hurt the hearts of the border generals. Moreover, all the officials in the court would inevitably have suspicion. Moreover, they had originally opposed the emperor's personal inspection. Isn't this more accusation to him?"
Civil and military achievements? The greatest achievements since the Northern Expedition of Emperor Yongle? After hearing these two sentences, Zhengde's eyebrows and eyes flew up together. He hurriedly said, "You are the one who said that I almost destroyed my military achievements... Uh... I destroyed the Great Wall by myself. Yang Yiqing's border guards is still a rare general. However, although this matter cannot be made public, he still needs to investigate the border troops in secret and thoroughly. Any suspicious things will be replaced. I will leave this matter to you. The border guards are infiltrated with so many spies, God knows when will the disaster cause?"
Yang Ling nodded quickly. Wang Shouren looked at him gratefully, and then asked the emperor to leave the mountain, directed the soldiers to count the casualties, clean up the battlefield, guard the prisoners of war, and sent people to Datong to explore the situation of the war. He decided to stop the emperor.
When the beacon fire broke out, Deng Xueying, the commander of the Taiyuan Central Guard, hurried into Zhang Yin's big tent to report. Then, the commander of the Taiyuan Left Guard, and senior generals in the army, came to the commander of the Taiyuan Left Guard, and the senior generals of the army, were neatly put on their clothes to the commander's tent.
Zhang Yin was secretly happy. Boyan had not had a large-scale battle for several days. At this time, the beacon was on fire. It was probably because of a surprise attack. After years of hard work, he has finally achieved results. How could he not be ecstatic?
According to Zhang Yin's original intention, he was stationed in place and waited for the results of the battle. Yang Yiqing transferred his army to guard against Boyan's attack on the pass during the emperor's alliance so as to order him to support the attacked castle nearby. However, he did not expect that Boyan's army had already had an internal support and could easily enter the pass and go straight to Baideng Mountain.
When the battle was closed, the two sides could not stand up and had time to send someone to inform him. After Boyan rushed to Bai Dengshan, Yang Yiqing was shocked and immediately mobilized a large army from the pass. At the same time, he sent an army to dispatch Zhang Yin to support him. As for whether the army in other places had time to rescue the troops, he could not care.
Before the Yang Zhengzheng's Yima arrow arrived, the Taiyuan reinforcements had already fought hard. Zhang Yin believed that he should be on standby and then decide to stop according to Yang Yiqing's order. However, Deng Xueying, commander of the Central Guard, believed that the nearby garrison should follow the convention. When the beacon fired, the nearby garrison immediately rushed to the nearby pass. Guan Yong, commander of the Taiyuan Left Guard, insisted that he would not give any instructions to the outside king. Since the beacon fire should immediately go to Datong to prevent any accidents.
Zhang Yin deliberately delayed the time and deliberately indulged the two generals in dispute, but he was not determined to see him. He just sent a fast horse to Datong to explore the military situation. After nearly an hour, he probably had no time to go to the mountaineering in Bai. He "decisively" decided to raise an army to Datong according to Guan Yong's opinion.
The army was halfway through and barely met the postman who had dispatched troops by Yang Yiqing. When the generals heard that Boyan had entered the pass and had attacked Baideng Mountain, they were panicked and stepped up their command of the army to help.
After passing Wang Shouren entered the pass to fight against Hu Fort, his horse exploration was also sent back to Datong. Bai Dengshan was trapped. Wang Shouren led a cavalry to assist Bai Dengshan. Yang Yiqing's army was also on the way back to the rescue. Zhang Yin originally expected that the defenders at the pass were all infantrymen, and they had no time to return to the rescue. Now he heard that Wang Shouren's troops who were looking for the enemy outside the pass were then arrived first and had already rushed to Bai Dengshan. He couldn't help but feel sank in his heart.
Wang Shouren's soldiers were all cavalry. Although 16,700 people were far inferior to Boyan's number of troops, they were more than enough to protect the mountain. If they arrived in time, this trick to win in the danger would definitely fail.
Zhang Yin was worried. The commander of the left and middle school said that the Lord was loyal and worried about the safety of the emperor, so he urged the troops to abandon their supplies and drag their weapons, and went to Datong with light equipment and quickly.
Chapter completed!
