I was pulling trees in Daming, and Lao Zhu begged me to come out of retirement

Chapter 99 The southerners on the opposite side are scared, charge!

The general in the camp was stunned when he heard this, and then he became furious.

"How dare you! A mere group of soldiers dare to go out of the city to fight?"

At this time, Wang Baobao had not yet grown up, and the army was led by his father, named Chagan Temur.

He was supposed to be fighting Liu Futong and others in Yingzhou, but because Zhu Yuanzhang cut off Liu Futong's luck, he was appointed as a general to besiege Zhu Yuanzhang.

Chagan Temur studied Confucian books since he was young, took the imperial examination and became famous in his hometown.

After Zhu Yuanzhang's anti-Yuan uprising in 1351, Chagan Temur organized local armed forces and defeated the Luoshan Red Turban Army with Li Siqi, and was promoted to Darughachi of Runing Prefecture (now Runan, Henan).

Later, he defeated the Red Turban Army repeatedly in Hebei and Henan regions, and was promoted to the post of Privy Council in Hebei for his merits.

Now he led an army of 50 to besiege Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Yuanzhang not only did not defend the city, but went out of the city to fight back. Isn't this looking down on him as a leader? !
If Zhu Yuanzhang, the leader of the rebel army, was wiped out here, he would have extended the Yuan Dynasty's national fortune for another 50 years.

With this in mind,

Chagan Temur immediately put on armor and went into battle to stop the Yuan army from attacking Zhu Yuanzhang.

In his opinion, Zhu Yuanzhang's charge was a sheer act of seeking death.

According to intelligence, the enemy's cavalry only has 5000 at most, and the rest are all infantry.

Of the 50 troops gathered by the Yuan army this time, 20 were cavalry.

Using infantry to resist cavalry charges on the plains is simply a suicidal act.

The Yuan army camp was nearly ten kilometers away from Zhu Yuanzhang's position.
By the time the two armies were able to see each other, Chagan Temur had already completed his military preparations.

When he saw the formation Zhu Yuanzhang had set up opposite him, he burst out laughing.

"Pfft! Is this the kind of army that we should be so worried about?"

This time, unlike the strict deployment of the Yuan army,
Zhu Yuanzhang's army had only 10,000 cavalrymen leading the charge.

Behind the cavalry were large catapults.

This thing is not a creation of Tianyu using MC rules.

Instead, they were supplies that Zhu Yuanzhang seized from the defenders after he captured the city.

At the same time, some artillery pieces from the Yuan Dynasty were also seized.

Tianyu can also easily use the workbench to make the same thing.
However, the lethality and range of these artillery pieces are worrying.

In a fight, apart from the power it brings and blocking one's own vision, it doesn't have much effect.

After all, it's a cannon barrel that throws rocks, so how much lethality can you expect from it?

Tianyu and others had thought about using artillery to launch TNT, but unfortunately the volume of TNT is only one cubic meter, and it cannot change its shape, so it cannot be launched through a gun barrel.

In desperation, Tianyu had to study a method of throwing TNT using a simple lever principle similar to a trebuchet.

Originally, Tianyu had seen in a short video in his previous life that a big guy used a command block to create a throwing effect.

Unfortunately, Tianyu spent a long time studying but still couldn't figure out where to get the command block.

Fortunately, the catapult that Zhu Yuanzhang seized was very simple to make.
After a few experiments, they found that the catapult could throw TNT at a distance of at least 100 meters.

This is a relatively safe distance for TNT with a 10-meter diameter.

This was also the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang dared to go out of the city to attack the Yuan army.

At this time, Chagan Temur and Zhu Yuanzhang stood out from the crowd.

The two looked at each other from a distance of 2000 meters.

It's not that Chagan Temur didn't want to move forward,
The intelligence said that the enemy's crossbows could shoot up to 2000 meters and still be lethal, and there was an enemy arrow stuck in Jia Lu's butt.

As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall;

Chagan Temur was not afraid of dying on the battlefield, he was afraid of dying because of talking nonsense before the war.

"Zhu Yuanzhang! How dare you, a mere child, challenge my Yuan cavalry? I will make sure you go in with a white knife and come out with a red knife! I! @￥#"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who ran 2000 kilometers against the wind,

"What did you say? Huh? Damn it, speak louder! Come closer!"

Chagan Temur: "You!...% me!" Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

"What the hell! Brothers, charge!"

Zhu Yuanzhang gave an order.
Thousands of elite cavalrymen took the lead and rushed towards the Yuan army in neat steps.

Chagan Temur laughed at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was alone in the deep. He returned to the camp and said to the lieutenant general with a smile:

"This kid has fallen into a trap. How can he lead troops to fight without even this much tolerance?"

The generals praised him upon hearing this.
Only Tetsuji Buhua's eyes twitched twice and he reminded in a low voice:
"General, don't be happy yet. The enemy's horses' endurance and bow and crossbow range are much better than ours. If this group of people harass us from the side, our army will definitely be in chaos."

Chagan Temur looked at Chelibuhua with a sneer on his face and cursed:

"Useless! Just a few thousand cavalrymen, what impact will they have on the overall situation! Kuyuk Timur!"

At this time, the still young Wang Baobao stepped forward and answered loudly.

Chagan Temur: "Tell him how to deal with such an enemy!"

Wang Baobao tilted his mouth, revealing a confident expression on his face:

"A mere thousand men will not affect the overall situation. They are just relying on the advantage of weapons. We just need to charge straight into the battle formation. If the enemy avoids us, we will kill them in the enemy camp. If the enemy does not avoid us, they will surely be reduced to ashes under my 20 iron hooves!"

What Wang Baobao said is absolutely correct.

No matter how strong Zhu Yuanzhang and his men were, they only had a thousand men.

Moreover, they are strong in mobility and range.

If you don't evade the charge, no matter how strong you are, you will never be able to stop the charge of 20 cavalry.

If the enemy avoids, the infantry in the rear will just be slaughtered.

This is an open conspiracy. It is an absolute gap in strength that cannot be changed by their thousand-man cavalry.

Chagan Temur laughed:
"You are worthy of being my son. I order you to lead the army to defeat the enemy. Are you sure?"

Wang Baobao was very excited when he heard this: "I will not let my foster father down!"

The Yuan army followed the order and 20 cavalrymen gathered in front of the battle formation in an instant.

Wang Baobao raised his knife and shouted:

"Warriors! Now let them see the true bravery of us grassland men!"

“┗|｀O′|┛Ah~~!!”

Everyone cheered loudly.

"rush!"

Rumble, endless sounds of horse hooves rushed towards Zhu Yuanzhang's cavalry of a thousand men.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was running in the front, narrowed his eyes and immediately ordered the troops to disperse to both sides.

Wang Baobao on the opposite side laughed loudly: "The southerners on the opposite side are scared! Ignore them, charge!"

Zhu Yuanzhang and the cavalry shouted and fired bows and crossbows on both sides. In an instant, hundreds of cavalry fell off their horses and were trampled into meat paste by the army.

But this is just a drop in the bucket compared to the 20 cavalry army.

The cavalry rushed towards the enemy's infantry in an arrow-like shape without hesitation.

However, when they were about 400 meters away from the enemy camp,
The heavy catapults in Zhu Yuanzhang's camp were thrown out instantly.

The red TNT flashed white light and fell directly in front of the cavalry.
Wang Baobao burst out laughing when he saw this:
"Haha! These idiots on the other side were so scared that they even launched their catapults too early. Brothers, kill them!"

He raised his knife and let out a long roar, then led his men straight into the TNT formation.

As we all know, the time it takes for TNT to explode is 4 seconds, which is 4 minutes and 48 seconds in MC time...

Therefore, after Wang Baobao led the front row past the nearest TNT explosion range,

Suddenly, there was a tremor behind me that made the sky collapse and the earth split!

Boom~Boom~Boom~!!
