Chapter 21 Prairie Eagle(1/2)

On the other side, Li Yan also found something wrong.

Could it be that Ye Bushou, who had been scattered, was attacked? But Li Yan quickly gave up this idea.

If you don’t take the night, you are the ghosts wandering on the edge of the battlefield. They are very spaced between each other but keep in touch. No army can silently destroy the other party’s night without being discovered.

What's more, their Dashun Army's night was full of elite soldiers, and they were extremely vigilant.

Li Mou, who came with Li Yan this time, also asked: "Brother, why hasn't the Ming army moved yet? Could it be that the old man Chongzhen didn't plan to break through, right?"

"No." Li Yan said, "The Ming army will definitely break through tonight."

Li Mou said: "That's strange, why are old Chongzhen procrastinating?"

After a pause, Li Mouhu had a whim and said, "Brother, shouldn't the Ming army break through the front, right?"

"This is impossible." Li Yan sneered, "There are our Dashun Army and the 4,000 cavalrymen from the Gongtu Tribe in front of us. He also uses Chongzhen's courage to do so..."

Speaking of this, Li Yan's voice stopped abruptly.

Li Mou asked, "Brother, what's he?"

Li Yan suddenly stood up and said, "No, go back!"

"What? Go back?" Li Mou stood up confusedly.

Why are you going back? Let’s not catch Chongzhen’s old man?

...

More than a thousand Ming troops have already lined up in the dark.

The dozens of bonfires in the camp behind him were deliberately lit, with the purpose of illuminating the more than 100 felt tents in the camp and creating the illusion that the Ming army is still sleeping soundly.

But in fact, the Ming army had already gathered in the shadow behind the wall.

The back of the guard wall was pitch black, and more than a thousand people were silent.

With the glimmer of light coming from the bonfire, you can only see the blurred outline.

Zhu Gaoyuan turned around and asked in a low voice: "Wang Daban, are you ready?"

The first priority to break through is to fill a trench. Wang Chengen was responsible for this matter. The old eunuch and more than a hundred eunuchs had filled hundreds of scattered mud overnight.

When the eunuchs were about to throw the mahjong into the trench and fill out a passage.

Then the Ming army was able to step on this passage and launch a breakthrough battle.

After receiving Wang Chengen's affirmative answer, Zhu Gaoyuan nodded happily and said, "Then let's start."

"Old slave obey the order." Wang Chengen agreed, turned around and waved his hand. The eunuchs who had been waiting behind him for a long time raised their mouthfuls of mahjong and threw them into the trench outside the guardrail.

In order to reduce noise, the eunuchs acted very little.

However, the soil filling speed is very fast, and the passage is filled in within a moment.

Zhu Gaoyuan pulled down his slinging armor, then flew onto the horse's back.

Seeing this, the officials and nobles on both sides and the soldiers of the Ming army followed them on the horse. During the whole process, there were no war horses neighing, only a series of low snorting sounds, and the war horses were already in charge.

"Sharp..." Zhu Gaoyuan slowly drew his sword amid the clear chant of metal rubbing.

However, just as Zhu Gaoyuan was about to raise the knife, his movements suddenly paused and his expression froze.

I saw a little fire jumping out under the dark night ahead without warning. This faint fire hit Zhu Gaoyuan's heart like a sledgehammer.

Because this is definitely not a little fire!

This should be...an army!

Sure enough, this ignition light quickly turned into a piece!

"This..." Wang Jiayan and other officials Xunqi were also stunned.

...

Li Yan was also stunned.

Li Mou also said in surprise: "Brother, is this reinforcements from General Li You or General Gu Kecheng here?"

"No." Li Yan shook his head flatly, "Our messenger was just sent out in the afternoon, so General Li You and General Gu Kecheng's reinforcements could not arrive so quickly!"

Li Mou said: "So it's a Mongol?"

Li Yan said: "It's impossible, the truth is the same."

"Whose reinforcements from the family could be?" Li Mou said, "Is it the Ming army?"

"Don't worry about him for now!" Li Yan said in a deep voice, "Let's go back to the west bank!"

Now Li Yan is not only worried that Chongzhen will run away, but also that the safety of the West Bank camp. He only left 500 people for Li Nian. If the Ming army came, then under the attack of the two Ming troops, Li Nian's only 500 people would definitely not be able to withstand it, and the supplies left in the camp would be completely finished.

Without the baggage, they will be unable to move forward in the Chahar grassland.

So we have to return to the West Bank as soon as possible to preserve the food and supplies in the camp.

With the order of Li Yan, the war horses that were originally lying flat in the grass stood up one after another.

Immediately afterwards, torches lit up, illuminating the east bank of the Baihe River as bright as daylight.

Almost at the same time as the Dashun Army fired a torch, hundreds of torches lit up in the southeast corner, which is the lower reaches of the Baihe River, but the ambushers from the Gongtu Division could not calm down and appeared on their own initiative.

Li Yan didn't even watch it.

He had long guessed that the Rabbit Division was there.

...

Li Yan didn't take the ambush from Gongtu's troops to heart.

The officials and nobles of the Ming Dynasty were frightened and their faces turned pale.

The sudden cavalry in front of him had not yet understood it, but suddenly there was an ambush on the other side of the river, and it was not one, but two ambush!

If Wang Jiayan's plan breaks through,

Not only will the main force going north hit the ambush head-on, but Chongzhen who went south and a small number of elite troops accompanying him will also be intercepted by the ambush in the southeast corner, and the final result can be imagined.

Thinking of this, Wang Jiayan was shocked and sweated.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't listen to him, otherwise it would be all over.

However, Zhu Gaoyuan's mood was not much better.

Because this perfect breakthrough plan has been ruined.

Originally, taking advantage of the fact that the bandits and the main force of the Gongtu Division were on the east bank, they could at least take out an hour, because it took time to cross the river. Before crossing the river, the soldiers had to take off their armor and then rolled them into a ball and put them on their heads. After crossing the river, they had to wipe their bodies clean and then put them on their clothes and armor. This took time.

Otherwise, wearing wet armor can easily get sick.

Of course, if you reach the urgent moment of 100,000, you will not bother to get sick or not and force it to pass directly.

For example, now, the bandit cavalry in the northeast corner and the Gongtu cavalry in the southeast corner don’t care about these things, and they don’t care about taking off their clothes and taking off their armor and directly urged the war horses to rush into the cold river.

So, now, breaking through is impossible.

Zhu Gaoyuan once again turned his attention to the grassland ahead.

Who the hell is this? It ruined my breakthrough plan!

...

"Hahaha, it's quite timely."

Hu Xinshui laughed happily, but he looked up at the sky.

Hu Guozhu reached out and pointed his hand in front and asked, "Dad, what's going on?"

"You might as well guess." Hu Xinshuidao, "What happened before?"

"I guess." Hu Guozhu scratched his head and said, "I can't guess."

Hu Xinshui said: "Then let me tell you what happened. The camps ahead are divided into three places, and the distance between them is about 500 steps, which can be seen as belonging to three different camps."

"That is to say, in addition to the Ming army and the Gongtu tribe, there is also an army."

"This is also the army we discovered in the Fog Spirit Valley before. I guess it should be a thief."

He pointed to the east bank of Baihe and said, "From the equipment, the two cavalrymen who were crossing the river should be bandits and the ambushers of the Gongtu Tribe. They must have thought that Chongzhen would lead the Ming army to break through the east bank tonight, so he wades across the river in advance and waits for him on the east bank, but was disturbed by our father and son, haha."

Hu Guozhu cast admiring eyes at Hu Xinshui: "Bad, you are so awesome."

"Then you learn more." Hu Xinshui rubbed Hu Guozhu's head lovingly.

While the father and son were talking, a thousand Yi Dings had slowly approached the Gongtu Tribe camp.

Hu Xinshui didn't want to start a war with Gongtu tribe, but just wanted to sing a play with his former friends.

At this time, Boritachina had already returned to the west coast with the wet main force of the Gongtu clan. After joining Hairigu, he quickly formed a cavalry formation and faced the thousand widows of Hu Xinshui.

It was about a stone's distance, and the two stopped in a tacit way.

Then Hu Xinshui took Hu Guozhu slowly out of the cavalry formation.

Seeing this Boritai, he was stunned for a moment, and then rode alone to urge his horse to go out of the formation.
To be continued...
