Jingming

Chapter 509 The absurd winning hand

"Jining City has reached its most dangerous moment! Those mines have been activated, and I have no way to retreat. Even if I am afraid, I may make a desperate move!"

After hearing Zhu Houcong's words, Guo Xun nodded: "Call the battalions to form formations and move forward!"

It took them three days and traveled only a few dozen miles.

And just late last night, Lu Bing escorted the emperor and marched quickly to the main force of the Beijing camp.

Now, the old minister and his monarch are really fighting side by side.

In the wild battle, you must withstand the craziest possible impact of the cavalry.

That's not a small number of captives, it's the so-called hundreds of thousands.

If the emperor moves, the subsequent reinforcements from the border forts and the Beijing camp, and those to the south, will naturally come in a steady stream.

Lu Bing said that he had already sent orders to Liangcheng, Datong, Zhangbei and other places.

But hold on first.

Although the battle has been fierce for so long, new stimuli have been thrown into the battlefield at this moment, and everyone has to stretch their spirit, will and physical strength.

Let so many forces besiege Jining without any scruples, and sooner or later they will achieve success.

And to protect the emperor, which battalion general would not be distracted?

The sun has fully risen, and the sea of ​​Jining is dotted with light.

There was no room for him not to fight.

Robbing the camp and disturbing the enemy is what you should do.

In this situation now, if you take the initiative to push forward first, distract the attention of the soldiers and protect Jining, that is the power of the horns.

"Leave 30,000 elite soldiers and all the civilians to capture Jining and seal ten thousand households! The rest of the elite soldiers will follow the Khan to attack the reinforcements! Kill the Han emperor in formation and seal ten thousand households!"

But you have to be calm... you have to be calm...

Maybe. But the emperor of Ming Dynasty is here, how can there be no artillery fire among the reinforcements?

After Jining was captured, the artillery and muskets in the city were captured, but my subordinates were not good at using them, let alone defending the city.

Once it is cut off and divided, the power of the Ming army's military formation will be weakened.

I ignored the fact that I no longer had any advantage in field battles, and I had to face the uncertainty caused by the setback just now to my soldiers.

The war situation changed suddenly.

Can Jining really be captured quickly?

What's more, the Tatars did not give up the siege, and now they are really going to fight to the end.

"Taking Jining first is to get reinforcements!"

Now, the emperor, who is stationed in the army at the Beijing camp, personally comes to help, robs the camp and disturbs the enemy.

It's not a matter of whether he wants to do it, it's a matter of whether he can.

He has no way out!

A dilemma of choice, this is my current situation.

And now the old rival is surrounded by the most elite troops, the ones least likely to be easily defeated.

But how?

They are still waiting for my order.

But seeing the big banner moving rapidly towards the south of the city, Mao Bowen's heart was already in his throat.

If the Ming army were allowed to control the south and west, then troops and supplies would not be a problem, and the morale of the defenders would definitely be boosted.

Even if we block the reinforcements and capture Jining first, it will not be easy to hold on later and we will be forced to stay here.

Faced with the impact of tens of thousands of soldiers and cavalry, can the Jingying camp resist it?

A penetration of this scale has a high probability of success.

The defenders are exhausted and it is extremely difficult to get out of the city to attack. It would be unwise to give up the advantage of city defense and go to the field to meet the enemy in the current state.

In the last field battle, when the General Military Staff of the Ming Dynasty wanted to escape into the city, the proportion of combat power exchange...

There is no way out, this is also the way to defend the city.

Many of the horsemen in the west of Jining City have also gathered to the south. Now, there are more than 20,000 horsemen in this direction.

Thinking of the possible results and the huge gains that such success would bring, Anda's heart beat violently.

This number is smaller than the Beijing army in the south.

This is to take advantage of the current situation to give it a try and create a new situation.

But they can't just let go of this position.

He felt there was no need to hesitate any longer.

She Jining went straight to the Emperor of Heaven, but it was not easy to succeed...

However, while the troops around the Ming Emperor were still relatively small and more reinforcements had not yet arrived, Jining City, which had already taken so many lives, was abandoned. If the troops could not be divided and continued to besiege the city's defenders, they could be dispersed in one battle to aid the Ming Dynasty. Army, it will become more and more difficult later.

Scattered to aid the Ming army, and even captured the old rival alive...

That old rival dared to run out of Fort Victory on his own, was he not prepared at all? Could it be that he came here to stage an escape drama?

Dilemma of choice.

The military order they received was to block off the west and south and contain the defenders.

Mao Bowen looked at the movement outside the city with fear.

Now that there is this opportunity, although it is difficult to grasp this opportunity, the strategic achievement of being able to kill the old rival here or even capture him alive is too great.

The news that I promised to seal off ten thousand households spread to the west and north of Jininghai. This was a new stimulus for the equally tired Luqi.

The Ming Emperor is there.

After so many years, with so many facts, and with An Da's constant propaganda, that man has become the number one devil in the eyes of the grassland tribes.

It was he who brought the greatest suffering to all the major tribes.

Being forced to stay in the ice and snow for so many years was a gift from him.

The fertile Hetao, Fengzhou Beach, and Xilin Gol grasslands must be abandoned because they were given by him.

Now I still can't live in peace. I know that he will continue to expel the people of Changshengtian, so I must give it a try and come here to fight bloody battles. It is also thanks to his gift.

Kill him and it will be all over!

If you kill him, Ming Dynasty will definitely start to be in chaos like it was a hundred years ago!

Killing him can reverse everything!

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

Amid the cries of the foreigners, Guo Xun, who had been immersed in his life, finally gave some insightful answers.

"Although the coast of Jining Sea is flat, it cannot accommodate hundreds of thousands of troops to charge! Back up the water and form a formation! Don't be afraid of drilling in this battle. The Ming army's formation will never come back!"

After all, there is a large lake next to it. Is it possible for Luqi to tread water?

It's not freezing now!

This will undoubtedly be a bloody battle.

But if you want to kill the main force of a clan and a country, what can you do without a real bloody battle?

"They have been fighting for so long, and they are just hanging on for the last breath! Once they fail to achieve success in one fell swoop, they will never be able to leave again!" Zhu Houcong also gave his promise, "If the battle is successful, it will be a matter of course! I will not leave to bring out the prestige of Ming Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty has a decree. This battle is successful, and you will be granted the title of marquis and duke..."

The final mobilization before the war began. Thirty thousand people formed formations inside and outside the capital camp. They gritted their teeth and watched the horsemen getting closer and closer.

They were trained by Yan Chunsheng, Duke of Xingguo.

Although they don't have as much experience and training as the frontier troops, they now have the important responsibility of escorting, and they need to fight for their own lives and their own future.

In front of the cavalry, fleeing means death.

The emperor is behind him, and if he is afraid of fleeing, he will die.

Besides, the emperor said he wouldn’t leave?

Why did the emperor risk his life?

But they soon had no time to think too much, because they could see a big banner on the opposite side, and the emperor of the steppe Tatars was also risking his life.

He was even like the heroes of the grasslands from generation to generation, charging with the army and taking the lead.

Kill him!

Kill this Anda, and the troubles in the north will be truly eliminated, and the world will be at peace from now on.

As a result, the generals on both sides reached a consensus at this moment: kill the "culprit" on the opposite side, and the battle will be settled.

Before approaching the Ming army and about to break into the military formation, I was shouting something, but a thought suddenly came to my mind.

The original intention was to capture Jining as quickly as possible with the advantage of mobility and numbers, but then the main forces still joined forces to clash in the Loop and Xuanning disrupted the northern defense line of the Ming Dynasty. Why did it fall into a real decisive battle so quickly?

Is the decisive battle about to take place in Jining?

However, the old opponents are here. Do you really want to retreat first instead of fighting with them?

In fact, you can choose this way, after all, the cavalry can still come and go like the wind.

Looking at the Sanchen Banner in front of him, An Da suddenly turned all his emotions into a cry: "Kill!"

With a long roar, he realized that he had been "escaping" and "hiding" for so many years, and he was really approaching his limit.

Such an old rival has always existed in his nightmare, which is suffocating.

He was so steady, so methodical.

Internal affairs, military affairs, financial planning, armaments, diplomacy... The Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more terrifying. How long will it take?

It was rare that he suddenly became unstable.

It's rare that he dared to risk coming here.

If you don't succeed, it's better to be a benevolent person. There won't be a better opportunity!

The elite cavalry that had accompanied him on his western expedition for so many years crashed head-on into the Ming army's formation.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The artillery battalion started first, with the mandarin duck formation in the front, the gun formation and the chariot battalion in the middle, and the bloody battle began.

Zhao Zhenji beside Zhu Houcong had no room for retreat, and his life could only depend on the soldiers of the Ming army.

Now, he could only open his eyes wide, watching the battle situation with the emperor, and watching the Ming army's tactics.

Not purely a firearms unit, but lots of firearms.

In addition, the armor and cold weapons of the Ming army were also well-equipped and of better quality. At this moment, the outermost line of defense is spread out. The mandarin duck formations cut the battlefield in groups, leaving some passages for the captives to enter.

In the back, there are tanks with swarms of rockets, and gun soldiers lined up in several rows to kill the enemy, protected by sword players.

The artillery battalion in the second line of defense adjusted the artillery to a longer firing angle and bombarded the horsemen in the distance first, trying to disrupt their formation as much as possible.

The innermost ones are the personal soldiers of Lu Bing and Guo Xun, guarding the most important Emperor Ming.

This is a huge millstone located on the west and northwest sides of Jining Sea.

Flesh millstone.

Many soldiers came in, some had been crushed, and some were still fighting on all sides.

They struggled towards the place where the Ming Emperor's flag was.

After this kind of crushing of flesh and blood for almost an hour, Emperor Ming suddenly said with no shame: "We can shout together!"

Zhao Zhenji shouted immediately.

"I died in the battle!"

"I died in the battle!"

"I died in the battle!"

The words were shouted in the grassland language. Anda, who was still rushing forward amid heavy defense, was suddenly startled, and then his heart suddenly sank.

He was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but then he finally came to his senses.

Being plotted to death.

When your old rival comes, are you betting that he will personally lead the army to kill him?

No matter what the truth is, I understand that my subordinates have a deep-seated fear of the Han people.

The offense and defense have long been alienated.

So I need a victory.

But I can't afford another failure.

Does it matter whether it is true or false?

All the emotions just need to explode now.

The cunning Zhu Houcong arrived at the capital camp and sent out orders at night for them to learn. Now he was shouted out by the innermost guards.

"I died in the battle!"

"I died in the battle!"

"I died in the battle!"

There were more and more and more uniform shouts, which made the soldiers feel confused and made the Ming army understand.

Some people are not dead yet, but he is already dead.

Because this is a battlefield with a wide scope, the line of sight cannot be projected too far, and the attention is still very scattered.

Because this is the escort army of the Ming Emperor, perhaps its eliteness is unimaginable.

Because... there is another person in the Ming army. That person shot and killed Bodi in the rebel army. That person had...

"I died in the battle!"

"I died in the battle!"

"I died in the battle!"

The voice reached Jining City. Mao Bowen didn't know whether it was true or false, but why did he care so much?

The walls in the east and north of the city and even the houses and alleys were engaged in bloody battles, followed by the same shouts one after another.

This is the power of learning.

The "upright" Tatar cavalry did not use this trick, but the Ming army knew how to be deceitful.

The emperor of Ming Dynasty even arranged this move himself.

"The Great Khan is still fighting!"

"The Great Khan is still fighting!"

The soldiers around Anda had to fight hard while also trying to "refute the rumors."

But if you open your mouth to spread rumors, you will lose your legs if you refute them.

I don't know why, but it may be because the Ming army has long been accustomed to shouting slogans during the drill, so they found the feeling of being drilled.

The Ming army's shouting became more skillful and orderly, and it did not affect the battle so much.

"I died in battle!" [Crapy but neat]

"The Great Khan is still fighting!" [Smooth but sparse]

"I died in battle!" [deafening]

"I died in battle!" [North and South Echoes]

Seeing the changes in the battle situation, Zhao Zhenji felt a little ridiculous in her heart.

How come this is the winning hand?

He shouted, looking at the emperor.

With a smile on his face, Zhu Houcong continued to shout rumors.

War is not just about fighting and killing.

The Ming army was able to engage in psychological warfare for so long outside of Seoul. Could it be that they would forget this here?

Jininghai witnessed this war with a sudden change of style and absurdity, but behind it was a fundamental factor that no one could ignore.

This is basically: in the past twenty years, offense and defense have changed shape, and the two sides have fundamental differences in their understanding of their king and their own strength.

After a hard battle, at a critical moment, only accurate enough rumors can defeat many people's psychological defenses in one fell swoop.

Among the chaotic troops, despair gradually appeared in An Da's eyes.

too fast……

All his plans and back-ups had not even had time to be put into action before the decisive battle suddenly came to fruition.

He worked hard all his life and came here with such great power, but he suddenly collapsed under a rumor on the battlefield.

Anda heard the chaotic sound of horse hooves heading north, and he knew it was over.

Can you escape? There must be a net to the north.

Where to go after escaping?

There are still too few wise men in this world.

He and a few people alone can't lead so many stupid people of Changshengtian.

And Daming...how come there are so many smart people under the old rival?

……

The war situation in Jining is changing rapidly. Zhu Zaiyi, Yang Shen and others who stayed in the capital are facing new situations every day.

The latest situation is that Zhu Houcong decided not to visit the Victory Fort, but went directly to the Jining front line.

It felt like the sky was falling.

"Until the war situation is clear, this military information must not be known to the people!"

Yan Song, who advocated the disclosure of military information, was now frightened.

Your Majesty, if you have any shortcomings, will my position as Prime Minister and Minister of State still be possible?

He couldn't help but look at the prince.

In this situation, the prince is more worried about his father's safety, or is he secretly expecting something to happen.

"General Staff Mao is incompetent! Duke Yi is incompetent! Your Majesty..." Yang Shen gritted his teeth, "How could the Ninth Five-Year Supreme Lord take such risks?"

It was useless to get angry here. Yang Shen immediately continued: "Your Highness, Eunuch Mai should be on guard to prevent changes!"

When it comes to the royal horse supervisor Mai Fu, what we need to guard against is of course the emperor's sudden change.

And when this happens, we must urgently send orders to Xuanfu and Datong.

It is necessary not only to rush for reinforcements, but also to lay down a new line of defense just in case.

Yang Shen felt that it was too difficult to be a family member.

The capital was loose outside and tight inside, and the important ministers struggled to survive in a state of suffocation.

Urgent deliveries conveying military information continued to come and go.

I started to attack Jining.

I am so saddened by my illness that a mountain of corpses has been piled up by slaves, civilians, and soldiers, and Jining is in danger.

I replied that Jining was besieged on all sides and the city was about to be destroyed.

The army from the Beijing camp arrived at Jining, and His Majesty accompanied the army to face the army of the Northern invaders.

I replied that our troops were divided into two groups, not only to attack Jining, but also to capture and kill His Majesty.

I died in battle.

I was captured alive.

When the news reached the stunned Zhu Zaiyi, Yang Shen and others, the capital city was already plunged into a sea of ​​joy.

Such good news, of course, is Lu Bu entering Beijing.

"A great victory in Jining! Your Majesty led the army to defeat the Beibei outside Jining City and captured me alive!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

"Beijing is in danger!"
