Come to Daming with military supplies

Those who can become scouts are originally excellent talents in the army.It is not an exaggeration to say that in order to assemble the 2000-strong reconnaissance regiment, Ding Shan put in no less effort than Commander Tian Hu of the First Division of the Cavalry in the World.Therefore, when the morale, ability, individual quality, and number of soldiers are not enough, the result is already doomed if two thousand soldiers are against less than one thousand remnant soldiers.

The three-three army array played a great role. A cavalry named Oirat was entangled, surrounded, and killed. After more than an hour, the battlefield returned to calm. Under the attack of the military plan, not even a single person escaped in the end.According to the previous agreement, they still have important things to do next, and He Gong and others do not need to be captured, so some wounded and some surrendered Oirat cavalry will eventually face a war that will kill them regardless of whether they want to or not. The result is death.

None of the [-] Vala cavalry escaped, and even the general Teng Shu died in battle.Master He Gong and Captain Ding Shan looked at this imaginary result, and they breathed a sigh of relief, they finally lived up to the sixth young master's hope and completed the task.

"Okay, send power to the sixth young master immediately. The matter is done. We will continue to plan and complete the task." After issuing the order to the electrician on the side, He Gong looked at Ding Shan and said: "Tuan Zhang , Military uniforms and everything are ready."

"It's already been prepared." Ding Shan stood at attention and replied.

"Okay, then we will act according to the plan." He Gong nodded, and then began to call on the soldiers to dig a big hole. This time, it is not an easy task to bury the corpses of [-] enemies. More importantly, While burying the corpse, some Northern Ming army uniforms should be mixed in.Yes, it is to frame things, to complete an illusion, so that the Oirat coalition forces mistakenly believe that the action of destroying this Oirat army was done by the Northern Ming army, breaking their so-called alliance.

It rained for two days and one night, and finally it cleared up again.The attack under the city of Shicheng started again, and after another series of unsuccessful attacks, Kurban found Prime Minister Arip helplessly, and asked where the shells of the red cannons of the Northern Ming Army had been transported.

Chapter 987 The Last Madness

Arip then went to the main tent of the Wala Army, and he was the first to see the leader. "My lord, the walls of the Shicheng City are so strong that if it weren't for heavy weapons to supplement it, this battle would really be impossible to fight. But I don't know where the Beiming artillery shells we need have been transported?"

"Oh, Prime Minister, this leader is also worrying about this matter." Ye Xian said with an ugly face, "According to General Teng Shu's previous report, they should have arrived at the barracks yesterday, but because of the rain, I'm afraid it will take two nights a day, but it doesn't matter, the heavy rain has stopped now, and the leader has sent a team to respond, presumably it will not be long before the shells will arrive at the barracks, at that time, the leader must inform the prime minister as soon as possible, how about it?"

Seeing what he said first, Alip couldn't press him again, so he nodded, "Forget it, if that's the case, then I'll wait for the good news from the leader here."

"Haha, there will definitely be good news." Yexian said confidently.But soon, the news spread that the cavalry had gone, but they had rushed to the foot of Saihan Mountain, but there was still no one in sight.

"It's impossible." When the news was reported to the main account, there was a flash of worry in Yexian's eyes, but he would never admit it, "You must have gone the wrong way, staggered with General Tengshu and the others. That’s it. Then, send someone to look for it, give me an inch of land to search, and don’t let any suspicious place go.”

After many years of leading the army, he also knows very well what it means if an accident occurs on the battlefield.But Teng Shu brought [-] cavalry, how could he disappear without a trace?There must be something wrong with this link.

The facts quickly proved Yexian's guess. After the scouts got the order, they searched carefully, and they found a very loose soil at the foot of Saihan Mountain.With suspicion, they dug there, revealing the corpses of cavalrymen of [-] troops inside.The news was quickly reported to Yexian, and he was surprised that he asked Arip to discuss the matter together.No matter how the other party also paid [-] war horses, an explanation must be given.

After Prime Minister Arip got the news, he quickly came to Yexian's main account. As soon as he entered here, he lost his usual composure and said anxiously, "Master, what happened? I heard that Teng General Shu and the others are in danger?"

"Yes." Ye first lowered his head, his face heavy with a lot of anger.

"What's going on here? We spent [-] horses in exchange for those cannonballs." Alip admitted everything before he saw it, and asked.This time the siege is all waiting for the emergency shells, but now he is told that there are no more, what should he do next?

Seeing that Arip wanted to question the crime, he raised his head first, and said with displeasure, "Master Prime Minister, please remember that we not only lost [-] horses, but also killed [-] cavalry. , we are much bigger than yours."

When he got angry first, Alip realized that there was a problem with his attitude, and his tone softened a lot, "Yes, I am deeply sympathetic to the loss of your department. It's just that what is going on, no matter what is going on There must be someone who explained it. That was [-] cavalry, how could it be said that they were wiped out? What's more, none of them came back, which is too abnormal."

"It's indeed abnormal." He also agreed with this point of view first, and then asked with a hint of doubt, "Master Prime Minister, do you think the Five-Star Army did it?"

"Five-Star Army?" Alip looked stunned at first, then shook his head and said, "Isn't it already confirmed that their main force is in the direction of Mobei City and Shicheng City? How can there be room to arrange people in the south of Shicheng City?" Ambush us? If they really have such great ability, why are they still holding on to the city? I don't think so."

Arip is a smart person, and it is said that he would not directly express his views on some things.But anyone who understands what is going on in front of him can see that the Five-Star Army has already been weakened and has no strength to fight back.

Not only was he thinking like this, but he also had the same idea first.It's just that he really couldn't think of any other reasons, so he casually tried to say it, and after listening to Arip's answer, he also nodded and said, "Yes, the Five-Star Army should not have such strength. Ten thousand cavalrymen brought by Tengshu Although it is not the most elite force, it is not a decoration either. If you want to kill them all without leaving any one behind, you have to have several times the strength to do it, and the Five-Star Army does not have this strength."

After ruling out the possibility of the Five-Star Army committing the crime, Arip and Ye first respectively thought of another force, that is the Beiming Army.In comparison, Mount Saihan is not far from Talu City, and they have long heard that Beiming's 20 reinforcements have arrived from the capital. Is it possible that they attacked suddenly and killed Teng Shu and others? ?

Although we are now allies, when interests conflict, anything can happen.That is [-] Vala cavalry, with [-] horses, and with so many artillery shells, it will not be surprising to do anything.

The saying that there are no permanent enemies and friends, but only permanent interests, is what is being said.For the benefit, who can say what the Beiming army will do?

Just when the two smart people had already pointed out what they wanted, but there was still a lack of evidence.The young scout general who went to investigate the corpses came back and brought the evidence they wanted, that is, a small amount of Beiming military uniforms were found in the burial pit.It was just because the people who were killing the other party were afraid of leaving evidence, so they set fire to it, so that even the corpses were dilapidated, and it was impossible to see how they died. In the hands of the warriors, there is only some evidence and hope left.

"Bastard, I didn't expect them to do it." After Mr. Ye got angry, he swung a heavy fist and slammed it on the wooden table in front of him.There has been speculation before, and now there is evidence, he no longer doubts it.

Alip was also annoyed, although it seemed unreasonable that [-] war horses could induce the Northern Ming army to take such a big risk.But the facts were there, and it was too much for him not to believe.Then the problem came, since the Northern Ming Army had moved behind them, they were no longer safe.They are between the Northern Ming Army and the Five Star Army, but they may be attacked from both sides at any time. If that is the case, they must take action, otherwise it will be too late when the overall situation is settled.

"What should I do? Do you still need to wait for me to send someone to Dalu City to find out the situation?" Ye first asked a little conservatively.

"The city of Talu has already been closed. Our people couldn't get in before. Now that something like this happened, even if they could get in, they probably wouldn't let them out. Such an investigation is meaningless." Arip shook his head.Under the foresighted thinking, he thought that all the investigations had become unnecessary. On the contrary, doing so would only delay the retreat of the army.

"That's right, so what should we do? Withdraw?" When he said this, there was obviously a trace of anxiety in Yexian's tone.

"We have to withdraw. But before we leave, we have to take some things with us. I have already sent people to inspect the grain fields of more than 30 mu in the north of Shicheng. Some of them have matured. If we move quickly enough , we can still snatch some, so that we can solve our own shortage of food and grass, and we can also re-invent the city, let them fall into food shortage in a short period of time, and delay their development." Alip said a little unwillingly with.Now that it has been confirmed that Shicheng is difficult to capture, it may be a risky move to go to Mobei City again, so it can only be the next best thing to grab what can be robbed first.

This is the best way at hand, and the only thing that can be done.First of all, although the food and grass brought this time are not small, the more life-saving things, the better [Heiyan fo], Dang even nodded, "Well, I agree with this opinion. That's it, our factions [-] cavalry go to grab food, and they are only given seven days, as for how much they can grab, it all depends on their ability?"

"Alright, after we grab our own food, we will burn all the rest we can't take away, and we can't leave it to the Five-Star Army anyway." Alip added.

"That's good. Well, using these seven days, we can also bring back all the cavalry on the northwest front, and prepare for the retreat of the whole army at any time." I said this first, and everyone was convinced. decision to retreat.A thunderous siege operation was destined to end in failure.

After the two family members reached a unified mind, they each sent [-] cavalry to the grain base north of Shicheng.But the next thing didn't go well. Facing the yellow and orange food, they were actually struggling.

This does not refer to how many five-star troops are defending here, it is because there are too many mines, and each of them paid a price of hundreds of horses for only two or three miles.And according to reports, it seems that there are still many landmines buried in the ground that can lift their soldiers into the air. If they want to finish the journey, it is far from being possible in a short period of time.

When the news came back, he and Arip first scolded Yang Chendong for being cunning.Obviously this was a plan that should have been laid out long ago, but because they always wanted to wait for the grain to mature before making up their minds, so they ignored it all the time.

"Since you can't get it, let's destroy it. Don't we still have some explosive catapults? Drive them over and blast the place to the ground together." With the thought of losing both sides, he also made one first. Hard move.

Chapter 988 The moment before the counterattack

This kind of thankless work, if replaced by the previous Arip, would never do it.He is a politician, and he pays more attention to the overall situation, and what he pays attention to is how much he can get in return after giving. It is like this kind of thing that puts a lot of effort but gets nothing. It is useless to do more.It's just that since the Battle of Shicheng, they haven't gained any benefits.On the contrary, the original [-] siege infantry were almost lost, and since they couldn't attack the city, there must be an explanation anyway.

"Then, let's destroy it." Alip made this decision in a difficult situation, and then arranged for people to do it.But before he gave an order, another piece of information was sent to him. This shocked Arip, who had not changed his face before the collapse of Mount Tai, and he finally didn't dare to think about other things, so he decided to leave immediately. up.

Arriving at Yexian's main tent again, Alipu said anxiously: "My lord, the Prime Minister has just received the news that a main cavalry force of the Five Star Army has entered the territory of our Yili Bali. They were burning, killing, and looting, which once threatened the safety of the king, so I got an order to rush back."

The sudden change also caught him by surprise.At first he thought it was Arip who was afraid and wanted to leave first and let him go to the back palace, but then the same news came from the eyeliner he left behind in the Kingdom of Yili, and he knew it was not true. fake.

Alip also informed first, but it was just a procedure. He didn't care whether the other party would agree to his move. This time he must leave.So after Kazuya met this side first, he turned around and left, arranging the retreat of the army.

As for other things, he certainly didn't have the mentality to pay attention to them. In order to rush back faster, he even threw some shield vehicles and ladders used in the siege under the city.For Arip, less than 5000 of the remaining [-] infantry have been basically wiped out, so there is no need to take these things away.

Alipu had 20 soldiers when he came, and only 12 when he left (5000 cavalry, 2 infantry, and [-] cavalry and infantry).

In addition to the [-] infantry that were wiped out during the siege of Shicheng, He Kegen's troops also lost nearly [-] cavalry before.This battle, not to mention not gaining the slightest benefit, and such a loss of soldiers and generals, can be called a failure.

Arip left very quickly. He was so worried about the safety of the king and the lair that it only took a day and a half from the time he ordered the retreat to the actual retreat.His departure made the Wala tribe led by Yexian a lone army.

Said to be a lone army, there are still about 13 cavalry in hand, of which 5000 soldiers were killed when attacking Mobei, and [-] were killed.

First of all, relying on the fact that his men are all cavalry, and the lair in the Hetao area behind him has not been attacked by the Northern Ming army, he is more calm than Arip.Even he hasn't forgotten the idea of ​​​​bombarding Shicheng's food base.

Now that he was leaving, he had to leave something behind, otherwise it would be a big loss.Also gave an order first, and five thousand cavalry dismounted and became infantry, pushing heavy catapults around Shicheng to the north city.

rush outside.He was about to complete this move right under Shicheng's eyelids, and he wanted to make Yang Chendong sick.

The news outside the city was sent to Yang Chendong every half an hour.When he heard that Arip led Yili and the army had retreated, and Yexian stayed behind and stubbornly wanted to attack his own grain fields, he had an urge to send troops immediately.

Speaking of which, after one month and eight days of defensive battles, batch after batch of war veterans were recruited into the New Second Army.Today's New Second Army has basically taken shape under the intensive hard work of Commander Shebie. It consists of the First Cavalry Division, the Second Cavalry Division, the Third Cavalry Division and the Infantry Division, with a total of nearly [-] soldiers.

In addition to the main force of the new army of nearly 2 people, as well as the First World Cavalry Division and the Tatar Division outside the northern city, he now has more than [-] soldiers available in his hands.If you launch a counterattack with all your strength, you have some certainty of winning.

But it can only be said that I am sure, the odds of winning are not great.The cavalry led by Yexian are all elite troops who have followed him in the South and North for many years. The remaining 13 troops are already twice as strong as his own. If they are not fully prepared and attack rashly, it is likely to be the result of losing both sides. .

Either you don't fight, you have to win if you fight, this is Yang Chendong's thinking.As for the need for time to prepare for the sacrifice of more than 30 mu of grain fields outside Beicheng, that is also a must.Compared with these external things, Yang Chendong valued the lives of soldiers more.
