Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 830: The Ming army deployed a formation to attack from the east and west. Zhang Ning persuaded Zhang Ning to surrender.

The Ming army gained because none of the Jurchen tribes had a particularly strong will to fight decisively.

As far as the deep mountains and forests where the Jurchen tribes are located, the Ming army really can't kill them. Even if we fight in, whether we can find anyone is still a big problem.

The key point is that it is not necessary. The Ming army desperately annihilated the Jurchen tribes and gained little.

Because the Jianzhou Jurchens were closer to the Ming Dynasty, they were monitored a little more. Like the Savage Jurchens and the Haixi Jurchens, they are the real emperors who are far away from the sky.

Therefore, the Jurchen tribes had a way out and were unwilling to risk their lives with the Ming army, especially on the grasslands.

Coupled with the continuous rainy season, the fighting spirit of the Jurchens was completely wiped out.

Borai was completely helpless. The Jurchens were unable to work, and their more than 10,000 cavalry were blocked by the flooded Ursun River.

The heavy rain continued intermittently, causing his cavalry to move eastward and camp near Xing'an Mountains.

I had to go into the mountains from time to time to hunt for wild animals, and also asked the Jurchens for help with some food, so I finally got through it.

There have been continuous sunny days in recent days. Bolai sent a messenger to contact the camp of Harakuchu.

At noon, the letter of war was sent to the camp of Haraku.

The two letters of challenge, one was written in the name of Tao Jin and the other was written in the name of Fan Guang, but the handwriting of the two letters of challenge was exactly the same.

As an army of justice, the Ming army naturally wanted to write down the war, send it to the enemy camp, and make an appointment with Hara Kuchu on a date.

When the decisive battle was about to begin, the Ming army slaughtered cattle and sheep. They slaughtered most of the plundered cattle and sheep and feasted on them.

Hara Kuchu was exploring the new batch of women. Qiqige walked into the tent lightly and stopped in front of the bed: "Sir, the Ming army has sent two letters of challenge. Please take a look."

Since the gunpowder has long been affected by moisture, the artillery and sharp guns will definitely not be usable.

After all, in the Dongsheng battlefield, the Ming army had fewer soldiers and the Mongolian army had more soldiers. Agabarji did not let He Yi and Xu Yongning go.

As for Hara Ku sending few troops, there is nothing we can do to help.

Anyway, the Ming army was greatly superior in strength, so they naturally had to act openly and honestly.

Then when the day came, the two armies were ready to charge and kill again.

Fortunately, there are also light chariots, bed crossbows and bows and arrows. Based on these, the Ming army still has a considerable advantage over the Mongolian army.

After being stunned for a moment, Harakuchu ordered Qiqig: "You take all my women with you, and I will send my own soldiers to protect you and leave.

In the Chinese army's tent, Tao Jin and Wang Yue were thinking about writing a war report.

If I unfortunately die in battle, you can continue to flee westward. The Eastern Chagatai Khanate is not safe, at least it must flee to the Kazakh Khanate.

Of course, a pincer attack from east to west must still be carried out. Tao Jin's and Fan Guang's armies, one from the east and the other from the west, must launch attacks at the same time.

If I can escape the battle, I will join you at Hala and Forest.

Moreover, the spirit and physical strength of the Ming army were obviously stronger than that of the Mongolian army.

After thinking about it for a while, Hara Kuchu realized that some civil servant should be the ghostwriter. He had written all the battle reports of the two Ming armies by himself.

In the Ming army camp, all the ministries were mobilizing nervously and orderly.

What is this situation?

Hara Kuchu took the letter of challenge, read it once, and suddenly became very angry.

Some of these women must be pregnant. After giving birth, you will raise them up.

Don't rush for revenge, but manage your own power. If you can occupy the Eastern Chagatai Khanate within a few decades, you will be considered successful.

After Emperor Jingtai is killed and the Ming Dynasty weakens, it will not be too late to come back and take revenge.

The Han people have a saying that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge within ten years.

In my opinion, it is never too late. "

Qiqige didn't say anything more, turned around and went back to his tent to pack his luggage.

It was originally a political marriage, but at this point, it is useless to talk about it anymore. Hara Kuchu also left the bed and ordered his soldiers to kill the few remaining animals.

Hara Kuchu was also very confused, and faced a head-on decisive battle. His 50,000 exhausted cavalry faced an east-west attack by more than 150,000 Ming troops.

It is estimated that Han Bai will not be able to win head-on even if he is reincarnated.

As for outsmarting him, Ha La Kuchu shook his head mockingly, or maybe Han Bai had the ability to come up with a clever plan to break the situation. Anyway, I couldn't come up with it myself.

So there were only two choices: either die heroically, or take advantage of the chaos and flee to the Western Regions.

It's really a choice between fighting to death or running away.

Sure enough, death is the only way through the ages.

Three days later, the agreed period has arrived.

Almost all the Ming army was dispatched. Tao Jin's army formed a formation five miles east of the Mongolian army's camp, and Fan Guang's army formed a formation five miles west of the Mongolian army's camp.

In Fan Guang's army, Gu Zhong led a battalion of 5,000 knights to line up behind the formation to pursue the defeated Mongolian and Yuan troops.

Ten thousand Japanese troops formed a square formation, located in the center of the front, surrounded by light tanks. At the front were three rows of crossbows.

Fan Guang and Wuzhong each led their cavalry to guard the two wings, ready to charge head-on with the Mongolian cavalry at any time.

As for Tao Jinjun to the east, he is obviously much richer.

Thirty thousand elite infantry formed three phalanxes of ten thousand people. The bed crossbows were arranged in three rows each.

Thirty thousand Duoyan Guards lined up behind the infantry, ten thousand Xiaoqi Battalion on the left wing, and ten thousand Shenji Battalion on the right wing.

The Mongolian army deployed all 50,000 cavalry on Fan Guangjun's side.

Harakuchu was on a slightly higher ground, watching the formation of the Ming army, shaking his head as he watched.

How could 50,000 light cavalry attack such an elite force?

The Ming army could have won the decisive battle long ago, if it had to be delayed like this for a month.

From the perspective of the interests of the Ming army, this is fine. If the fight is delayed for a month, the will of the Mongolian army will be almost exhausted. In this decisive battle, the Ming army could avoid many losses.

And the risk is extremely small, and victory is almost guaranteed.

Just as Hara Kuchu was thinking about it, the messenger from the Ming Army sent another letter. This time it was the Ming army coach who asked Haraku to talk before going out to battle.

As soon as Hara Kuchu heard this, he understood that he wanted to persuade him to surrender. Although he will definitely not surrender, it would be good to meet the Ming army commander, at least to hear how the emperor arranged it.

So Harakuchu jumped out on his horse and came to the middle of the formation of the two armies.

The other party was rather strange. Two young men came out. One was wearing heavy armor and was majestic; the other was wearing light armor and looked like he could barely ride a horse.

Wearing light armor, the Chao Hara Ku came out and cupped his hands, announcing his home address: "I am the subordinate Zhang Ning, and I am the counselor of military affairs at the office of Marquis Shenwu."

Hara Kuchu nodded: "I've heard of you. You were very active during the war against North Korea. The general next to you must be Wu Zhong, I've heard of it too.

It is said that this general was able to break two hard bows in a row, and his archery skills were excellent. He could gallop on a horse and still be able to pierce a Yang with a hundred steps. "

Wu Zhong bowed his hands and saluted: "He is the last general."

Harakuchu asked: "What did Emperor Ming have to say?"

Zhang Ning replied: "The Holy One has said that as long as you submit to the Ming Dynasty, you will be granted the position of county king. You can lead your troops to move to Hetao."

"Moving to the Loop?"

Harakuchu was surprised when he heard this and actually allowed his tribe to move into Hetao.

Zhang Ning added: "However, all your tribes must be dispersed and mixed with the Han people. Moreover, the Mongols must learn Chinese characters and speak Chinese from an early age, and implement comprehensive Sinicization."
