Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 300
Ming Dy, that is, sounding arrows.It is famous because Sima Qian recorded the story of Maodun Shanyu's "Mingdi killing his father" in "Historical Records Biography of the Huns".

It is said that at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, after Mao Dun became the prince of the Huns, his father Tou Manchanyu and the new Yan family gave birth to a younger brother for Mao Dun, so Mao Dun fell out of favor.

Falling out of favor was not over yet, Touman still wanted to abolish him, but the Huns also had the custom of "establishing a chief" when they established a prince, so Touman took care of it and sent Maodun to the Yuezhi Kingdom as a hostage.As soon as Mao Dun arrived in Yuezhi Kingdom, Touman Shanyu immediately launched a war against Yuezhi Kingdom.

It was obvious that his father wanted to put him to death.But Mao Dun was not the one who built it. He stole King Yuezhi's Maxima and escaped by chance.After returning, Touman was helpless and inconvenient for a showdown, so he had to give him "Wan Qi".

So Maodun is called Ming Dy, Ming means sound, Dy means arrow, Ming Dy means sound arrow, and when it is shot, the arrow can make a sharp sound.Mao Dun gave an order to his cavalry, that those who shoot from Ming Di but fail to shoot will be killed.

So Mao Dun first shot his favorite horse, and some people dared not shoot it, so he beheaded it;

In the end, while Mao Dun was hunting with his father Touman, he suddenly shot Mingdi at Touman without any warning, and his followers followed Mingdi without thinking about it, and Touman Shanyu was shot into a sieve on the spot.Without hesitation, Mao Dun "sent to punish his stepmother, younger brother and ministers who disobeyed" and established himself as Shan Yu.

However, although Mingdi was made by Maodun and was famous because of Sima Qian, later people did not shelve Mingdi because it was related to "father killing", but passed it down as a special-purpose arrow. , especially the grassland nomads, have always used it as a simple and effective "flare".

Right now is the darkest hour before dawn, and we are on the battlefield, chaotic and noisy, and Chataiji has [-] cavalry, if he just shouted and shot an ordinary arrow, I am afraid that only the people around him A dozen riders, at most dozens of riders, can see the direction of his shooting clearly, so the effect that Chataiji needs cannot be achieved.

What Chataiji wanted was a round of salvo, which was to launch a round of salvo against the forward part of the cavalry of the Ming army.

This is an extremely clever skill: bows and arrows can be shot directly or projected. As long as the nine hundred cavalry behind Chataiji know the direction and position to shoot, they will decide whether to shoot directly or project according to whether there is an obstacle in front of them. , in short, you must be able to shoot the arrow in your hand to the "direction of Mingdi".

The Ming army's three-eyed gun is different, it can only shoot directly.This means that only the front row can shoot, and the Ming army behind it will have difficulty shooting because of their comrades in front of them.

As a result, if you use the terminology of later generations, the "effective projectile projectile volume in a single round" is much lower than that of the old guards!

Chataiji's rich battle experience was brought into full play at this moment.

But Magui is not in vain for the past seven or eight years. Although Mingdi itself has to dig holes in the arrow to generate sound through the aerodynamic layout, the power of Mingdi has been greatly reduced. Even if Chataiji is the number one expert in right-wing Mongolia, Magui does not have to be afraid. He was chased by an arrow, but after Ming Di, a thousand arrows shot together must not be taken lightly.

So after Chataiji yelled, Ma Gui also shouted: "All the horses!" At the same time, he did even better, hiding in a stirrup, and leaning his whole body on the other side of the horse.

"Bang bang bang—" This is the three-eyed gun fired by the Ming army in a row.

"Xuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ofu-" This is the big wave of feather arrows that the soldiers of the guards immediately returned in color under the command of Chataiji.

Then, the screams of falling horses and the neighing of war horses rang out.

Although on this dark battlefield, only relying on the light of individual felt tents and hay piles lit around, neither side can easily judge the outcome of the battle in the shadows, nor can they judge their own losses, but Ma Gui, who was lucky enough to be safe, still feels a little bit of pain in his heart. Rin, something is wrong in secret.

The leading soldier on the opposite side has rich experience, decisive handling, and superb archery skills, all of which are beyond imagination, especially the speed of his shot is not much slower than ordinary arrows!I obviously reacted very quickly and used the almost juggling movement of hiding in the stirrups to evade, but the mingba still almost brushed past the left side of the face. Going to be shot right through.

Although Ma Gui is young, he is a "veteran" in the battle. He has already discovered that the enemy on the other side is all cavalry with white banners on their helmets. There is no second cavalry in the right-wing Mongolia, only the old guard Only the pro-army is qualified to wear this dress, and since the Suwei pro-army appears here, the identity of the leader of the army is ready to be revealed: the number one right-wing Mongolian master, and the number one famous general under Al Da's command!

Two very different ideas popped up in Ma Gui's mind in an instant: one is to kill Chataiji directly, and the other is to turn around and leave.

Of course, the attraction of killing Chataiji is huge. Although Magui has rich battle experience and is usually considered stable, he is a passionate young man in his twenties. Even if he killed a thousand enemies today, this achievement would never be equal to it!
But Ma Gui's rationality told him that the difficulty of accomplishing this goal may be greater than reaching the sky!If the more than a thousand cavalry I brought were all experienced and murderous "soldiers", if Chataiji brought ordinary Mongolian cavalry instead of the old guard army, if my side didn't just want to expand stealing The battalion effect caused the Mongolian army to panic and the formation was somewhat scattered...

In short, the current situation is obviously more unfavorable to our own side. As for the fighting power of Chataiji himself, it can be seen from the power of the arrow just now, but it is all a small trouble.

As for turning around and leaving... Ma Gui frowned slightly.Although he is not a reckless junior brother who cares about his head and disregards his back, he also knows that he should not hesitate when it is time to withdraw.However, right now, I have just entered the Alda camp not long after I stole the camp. I only lit a few fires in the northeast corner of the company camp and killed the Mongolian army here. The actual casualties were not even caused to the enemy. My answer was extremely calm, and I didn't send a large army to rush up, so that my side lost the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

This... I'm afraid it's not enough!If there is only this little result, it will not be considered much credit after returning.If he hadn't raised his troops in anger, wouldn't his trip be in vain?
No, no matter how difficult it is to cut Chataiji, but now, you have to give it a try!
