Chapter 538 The Killing of 45 People

To be honest, the Tatars' rush put a lot of pressure on Xu Fang's troops. It can even be said that the Tatars almost broke through the army formation several times. Fortunately, the cavalry protecting the two wings attacked in time to stabilize Hold the formation, otherwise, I am afraid that the army formation will really be broken at this moment.

After all, the loss of the Tatars at this time can be said to be quite large, almost half of the death rate. In a huge cavalry army of tens of thousands of households, in less than an hour, they fell four times. As many as 5000 people.

If it wasn't for Alu's real death, I'm afraid the army would have stopped charging at this moment. It was because of Alu's real death that the entire army lost control. Many Tatars just charged blindly. How about the casualties, except for some of the soldiers in the front who saw it, the soldiers in the rear didn't know what was going on at all.

Accompanied by the sound of rumbling explosions, at this time there are artillery and even firecrackers that cannot withstand the high-intensity shooting. Explosion occurs.

The dignified Xu Fang looked at the Tatar army that was constantly charging ahead, and couldn't help but clenched the long knife in his hand a little bit. Just when Xu Fang was worried that if he went on like this, he would only be able to fight the Tatars hand-to-hand, the Tatars who had originally charged The Tartar army finally appeared in chaos.

Losing command in a short period of time is fine, but losing command for a long time, it would be a strange thing if there is no chaos in a soldier.

Some Tatar soldiers saw the fallen corpses in front of them, and they didn't see the leader's figure. Naturally, the army was in a state of confusion. They began to subconsciously slow down and even actively avoided the death zone of the Ming army in front of them.

Finally, the remaining thousands of Tatar cavalry appeared in chaos, and a large number of soldiers began to turn around and flee, and then all the soldiers dispersed.

Seeing this situation, Xu Fang, who was holding the long knife firmly in his hand, couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief. At the same time, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he shouted at the surrounding cavalry: "Follow me to kill the enemy."

Under the capital city, Dayan Khan, who had dispatched more than ten thousand troops to charge tentatively once, looked at the retreating army with a calm look on his face.

Just looking at the city defenses of the Great Ming capital made people feel a little hopeless. If there were enough defenders for the tall city walls, they might not be able to break through even after a year or so of attack.

So at this moment, Dayan Khan didn't care too much when he saw the army's tentative attack retreating. What he cared most at this moment was how many reinforcements from the Ming army came. He had already killed the capital city. It can be said that The goal has been achieved, so is there any need for him to continue to stay here.

Just when Dayan Khan had the idea of ​​withdrawing troops, suddenly there was a mess of movement, Dayan Khan couldn't help but looked up, then frowned, and saw several generals being brought over in a mess.

These generals Dayan Khan are no strangers, they are the subordinates of Wanhu Aruzhen who was sent by him not long ago.

One of the thousand household officials was still his nephew, seeing the distressed appearance of several generals, Dayan Khan stared at them and said, "Aruzhen, what's going on with you?"

Sihagel said to Dayan Khan with a bit of panic on his face: "Great Khan, General Aruzen...he is dead."

"what!"

Dayan Khan exclaimed, and couldn't help showing a bit of surprise on his face: "How is this possible, even if you meet most of the Ming army with tens of thousands of you, Alu really wouldn't die. "

Listening to Sihagel's story, Dayan Khan took a deep breath and said, "So you just met a Ming army of thousands of people, and you were almost wiped out by the other party, waste , What a bunch of trash."

Dayan Khan yelled angrily and kicked Sihagel to the ground.

Although the firearms of the Ming army were formidable, Dayan Khan had seen it before. It was impossible for a team of thousands of people to resist the charge of tens of thousands of cavalry. It was obvious that Sihagel and the others were incompetent.

The few generals who were trembling with fear from Dayan Khan's anger didn't dare to speak at the moment, they just lay down on the ground begging for mercy.

Just when Dayan Khan was about to order several generals to be dragged down, he saw a few sentries galloping towards him, and said from a distance: "Khan, the big thing is not good, there are Ming troops surrounding us from all directions. Please sweat and make a decision early."

Before Dayan Khan had any reaction, the faces of the Tatar generals and officials beside him couldn't help showing a bit of panic.

After all, they are now in the heart of Da Ming, if they are surrounded by Da Ming's army, they will really have nowhere to go.

Noticing the reaction of his subordinates, Dayan Khan snorted coldly and said, "What are you panicking about? Even if the reinforcements from the Ming army can arrive, there can't be too many reinforcements. A few reinforcements want to keep me waiting for a 10,000+ army. What a shame! wishful thinking."

Hearing what Dayan Khan said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about it, it is true that their speed to the south was definitely beyond the expectations of the Ming court. Under such circumstances, the Ming court will definitely mobilize Not too many soldiers and horses came to surround and kill them.

Since they are not hundreds of thousands of troops, then what is there to fear about them? With their 10,000+ troops, they can deal with tens of thousands of troops that come in a hurry. At that time, let alone besiege and kill them, whether they can protect themselves or not is another matter.

A patriarch said to Dayan Khan, "Great Khan, what should we do?"

Dayan Khan ignored the patriarch, but turned his head to look in the direction of the capital, took a deep breath and said with a bit of sternness in his eyes: "Even if we have to leave, we have to teach the court of the Ming Dynasty a lesson. Go down and order the army to attack the city with all its strength."

"what!"

Many people were taken aback when they heard the words, obviously they didn't expect that Dayan Khan would issue such an order, but some officials under Dayan's command showed a bit of surprise when they heard the words and saluted Dayan Khan: "Dayan Khan Khan Yingming, I will take this opportunity to completely suppress the Ming court, so that even if we retreat to the grassland, we will not have to worry about the future."

Hearing the official's words, the Tatar generals and officials, who had been dazed before, became dazed, and looked at Dayan Khan with admiration.

On the city wall, Li Huan and other generals looked very calm as they watched the Tatars coming down like a black torrent.

With the capital's city defense, if it can't even withstand this kind of offensive, then it can only be said that the transformation of the Beijing camp in the past few years has been completely in vain.

Standing beside Li Huan, Zhang Lun was also dressed in military uniform. Looking at the crazy Tatars below, the evil spirit rushed towards his face. Zhang Lun couldn't help but said: "I guess the Tatars should also receive the news of the encirclement by the four armies at this moment." Now, this Dayan Khan still has the heart to attack the city, I really don’t know what he thinks?"

Li Huan smiled lightly, "Da Yan is planning to escape."

Several people couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and after listening to Li Huan's explanation, their faces showed understanding, while Zhang Lun couldn't help sighing: "What a Dayan, he really deserves to be a hero who can frighten the grassland. It’s just that this kind of courage is not comparable to ordinary people.”

Zhu Fu said with a bit of disdain: "So what, whether he can escape back to the grassland alive depends on whether he has God's mercy this time."

Although Dayan Khan ordered a fierce attack on the capital, it was a pity that no one could even attack the city except for a large number of corpses left under the city wall.

As the sun set in the west, the sound of the Jin Jin retreating troops sounded, and the Tatars who had originally attacked the city also receded like a tide, leaving only corpses all over the ground.

The sky was dark, and the Tatar camp was stationed in an open area several miles away from the city wall. Standing on the city wall, if you had amazing eyesight, you could even see the situation of the Tatar camp clearly.

But now the Tatar camp was brightly lit, and in this camp, the Tatar army that was supposed to be resting in the camp was quietly leaving the gate of the camp and heading north.

It was clear that the Tatars were preparing to evacuate in the dark. Looking at their posture, after dawn, all the Tatars left behind was an empty camp.

Dayan Khan was carried on a handsome horse, and a group of Tatar generals and officials followed Dayan Khan. They looked back at the camp behind them, and then looked towards the capital. Dayan Khan had a bit of disdain on his lips He smiled and said, "I don't know how Li Huan, Wang Yangming and the emperor of Ming will react when they see the empty camp that Ben Khan left for them after dawn."

A patriarch immediately said after hearing the words: "Needless to say, the Ming people will definitely look shocked and unbelievable, because they are only worthy of carrying shoes for Da Khan, how can Da Khan use soldiers like a god, and have clever tricks. "

Dayan Khan, who was stroking his beard, could not help but smile when he heard the words, and said modestly: "Then Li Huan and Wang Yangming are still capable, and Ben Khan is at most Qisheng It's just a move."

While speaking, the group of people had already left the camp several miles away. Naturally, the army cannot travel fast at night, and even a careless mistake may cause chaos.

Dayan Khan naturally knew this too, but he also knew that if he was traveling at such a speed, the army might not be able to leave the capital very far by dawn. Increase the speed.

With Dayan Khan's order issued, the marching speed of the army has increased significantly, which also made Dayan Khan breathe a sigh of relief.

Don't look at Dayan Khan's confident appearance, but it is related to the safety of the 10,000+ army, plus the experience of suffering at the hands of Li Huan and Wang Yangming, so Dayan Khan is quite cautious .

The night was dark and the sky was a little gloomy. Looking all over the sky, I couldn't see a single star. Suddenly, a raging fire ignited in front of me.

One, two or even tens of hundreds of fires suddenly ignited, and the fires everywhere directly illuminated the night sky, and at the same time, the Tatar army like a long dragon was also reflected under the firelight.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Suddenly, shouts of killing resounded through the sky from all directions, and then there was a rumbling explosion, and the artillery fire hit the sky, directly blasting dazzling flames among the Tatar army.

The firecrackers rained down, and the arrows pierced through the air, and immediately confused the Tatar army who hadn't reacted yet.

Up to Dayan Khan, down to the Tatar soldiers, no one thought that there would be a Ming army ambushing them at this time, and listening to the movement and watching the posture of the artillery fire, there were probably not a few Ming soldiers ambushing them.

The ashen-faced Dayan Khan couldn't help roaring angrily: "Send the order, don't panic, rush out, and rush out of the encirclement all the way north."

If Dayan Khan at this time is still unaware that he has fallen into the scheme, then he is not worthy to be the hero of the grassland.

But in the face of this situation, Dayan Khan had no choice but to order to break out of the encirclement. One of the two sides was passive and the other was active. The psychological feelings of the soldiers on both sides were different.

And in this dark night, with the light of the fire, you can see the flags of the Ming army everywhere, as well as the firecrackers and artillery fire that kept emitting fire, but the cavalry on their Tatar side fell into chaos. Among them, like a headless chicken.

At this time, other than ordering all the soldiers to bury their heads in one direction, it is unwise to make any other choices.

Following Dayan Khan's order, no matter what the road ahead was or what kind of ambush the Ming army had set up, the Tatars could only rush forward.

Under the light of the fire, Li Huan in armor, accompanied by several generals, looked at the chaotic battlefield ahead.

Even if the Ming army had been prepared for an ambush in this dark night, it would be impossible to avoid chaos.

The only advantage is that the Ming army has a psychological advantage and belongs to the active attacking side. Looking at the entire battlefield, the Tatars are obviously in a situation of being chased and beaten.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ang, Xu Ying and other lieutenant generals showed excitement on their faces, Li Huan waved his hands and said: "Go and kill the enemy, don't stay here with me. If anyone can If Dayan Khan is captured alive, I will ask His Majesty for credit for you."

This time Li Huan mobilized nearly 30 troops from the Beijing camp. Except for the [-] soldiers who stayed behind in the capital, the Beijing camp was dispatched in full force this time.

In order to arrange these hundreds of thousands of troops so as not to alarm Dayan Khan, Li Huan and Wang Yangming also took great pains. Fortunately, Dayan Khan was too arrogant and looked at Daming with the eyes of the past. How much has changed over the years.

30 troops encircled Dayan Khan, and the two sides added up to nearly 50 troops to kill and kill. Looking at history, it is quite rare. No matter what the result is, this battle will also be remembered in history.

The killing continued overnight, and an unknown number of soldiers on both sides died. At this time, Dayan Khan was fleeing in a panic under the protection of his personal guards. There were shouts of killing in all directions, as if the Ming army was everywhere.
