Blood from Daming

Chapter 313 Fireworks
Lang Dusheng is now in a very depressed mood. After Lang Dusheng fled back to his territory with his father Lang Shouyi yesterday, he found that Xue Yun's Datong Army was chasing him unhurriedly. The father and son knew that there might be nothing they could compromise with the Ming Army. There is no room, Xue Yun is a hungry wolf, if he does not eat a piece of meat, he will never let go easily.

The father and son of the Lang family couldn't figure out how their cheap son-in-law talked to Xue Yun to make General Xue Yun of the Ming Dynasty give up Zhu Youhua, a genuine Jianwen remnant, and instead attack the Lang family, a courtier of Zhu Youhua. This is obviously putting the cart before the horse. But anyway, the Lang family was betrayed by Zhu Youhua.

The father and son of the Lang family hated Zhu Youhua very much. Although the Lang family caused this disaster, two generations of the Lang family worked hard for your Zhu family, and even paid for two beautiful women. In the end, you Zhu Youhua Throwing it away like a hemp tablecloth really made Lang Shouyi and Lang Dusheng so angry that they couldn't contain themselves.

Now the Lang family father and son are not in the mood to pay attention to Zhu Youhua's unfeeling, the key is to pass the level of Xue Yun of the Ming army. The father and son tried to deal with Xue Yun's Datong army.

The father and son of the Lang family soon understood Xue Yun's intentions. Xue Yun adopted step-by-step methods in an attempt to use strong military pressure to collapse his own Lang family's army, so as to achieve the goal of defeating others without fighting, and finally collapsed the Lang family's entire army. The team also got the population wealth of the Lang family.

The father and son of the Lang family understood that Xue Yun wanted everything from the Lang family. Knowing that the Lang family had no capital to negotiate with Xue Yun, the father and son had no choice but to fight Xue Yun to the death. They didn't know that Xue Yun regarded them as big enemies. , The fundamental purpose is to uproot the Lang family.

The small river near the Lang family ranch had no name before the Lang family came. Maybe this small river had a name, but with the departure of those nomadic tribes, its name also left with those nomadic tribes. Set up camp here, and the Lang family slowly named it "Langxi".

Langxi meanders around the edge of Langjia Ranch. The source of Langxi is near the snow mountain near Monan. It is also different from the geographical characteristics of rivers in the Central Plains from west to east. It enters the Selenge River from south to north, and finally flows into The North Sea called by the Ming Dynasty was the North Sea among the East, West, South, and North Seas in ancient China. Later generations of Russians named it "Lake Baikal".

The Lang family came to this land and carried out some agricultural production in the Central Plains. The construction of a reservoir in the upper reaches of the Lang River to store water is a long-term consideration for the Lang family to use water for the pasture. So Lang Shouyi was going to teach the Daming officers and soldiers a hard lesson by the Langxi River.

So Lang Shouyi ordered his son Lang Dusheng to lead an army of three thousand Langs to lie in ambush thirty miles south of the Lang River and wait for orders. The vicinity of the river attracted the attention of the Datong army, and then under the banner of the fireworks sent by Lang Shouyi, Lang Duhuo was responsible for releasing water from the upstream reservoir to flood Xue Yun's Datong army in the Ming Dynasty.

Sure enough, it was almost dark when the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty arrived in the south of Langxi, and the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty set up camp on the south bank of Langxi according to Lang Shouyi's plan. The thousands of old, weak and remnant soldiers I arranged on the north bank of Langxi River could not resist the attack of Datong Army at all.

However, Lang Shouyi also made the worst plan. If the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty forcibly crossed Langxi, Lang Shouyi was ready to send out fireworks and die together with the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty.

At night, Lang Shouyi used torches to confuse the Datong army of the Ming Dynasty who were not in a hurry to attack, and then used the method of adding stoves and reducing troops to gradually move the herdsmen from Lang's pasture to the north. A torch, and two thousand Lang Shouyi's direct troops who maintain these torches.

Lang Shouyi planned to attack the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty at midnight. Lang Shouyi's consideration was that the reservoir in the upper reaches of the Langxi River did not have a lot of water, and when the water from a distance of thirty miles flowed to the camp of the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty, The power should not be too great. If the Datong army of the Ming Dynasty released water in the middle of the night while they were sleeping, I believe that many officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were still asleep, and the effect of such flooding would be much better.

Lang Shouyi's greed made him forget the old saying that nights are long and dreams are many. The abnormal lack of water in the Langxi River was finally discovered by the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty. Heiye also deceived Lang Shouyi and his men on the north bank. The Ming Dynasty Datong Army retreated quickly, and the Lang Family Army did not notice the change of the Ming Dynasty Datong Army in the first time...

When Lang's army found out that there was a change in the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty on the South Bank, they repeatedly sought confirmation during the process of reporting to Lang Shouyi, which greatly delayed the timeliness of the information. There was another trouble in the upstream reservoir, and not all of Lang Duhuo's men stayed on the reservoir dam.

Lang Duhuo received the firework report from his father Lang Shouyi, and quickly called his men to break the embankment to release the water. Several hundred of Lang Duhuo's men hurried up the embankment to release the water. Lang Duhuo and the others seemed very confused in the dark. In the action of releasing the water, some subordinates who were given different orders started first.

The planned collapse of the dam did not happen. Instead, the reservoir slowly collapsed. The flow and speed of the flood water flowing out of the reservoir were greatly reduced, and the impact and suddenness of the flood were completely gone. Lang Duhuo now Dumbfounded, knowing that he had messed up the matter, he hesitated for a long time and did not follow his father's request to support the eldest brother Lang Dusheng, but took hundreds of men along the north bank of Langxi River to find the old camp that Lang's family had evacuated.

Lang Duhuo left the upstream reservoir and did not send a firework signal to his elder brother Lang Dusheng for joint operations. Although Lang Duhuo was a little timid and afraid of death, he didn't have the guts to trick his own elder brother. He just hoped that he would give up on Ming without seeing his fireworks. The attack on the Datong Army.

However, Lang Duhuo underestimated Lang Dusheng's determination to destroy the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty. After receiving only a signal from his father's fireworks, Lang Dusheng still started the planned attack plan against the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty.

Lang Dusheng's troops, who started to act, did not see the fireworks from the reservoir towards Lang Duhuo for a long time. This caused a dispute between Lang Dusheng's generals and his family's children over whether the water attack was successful. arguing with each other.

When the soldiers in charge of the sentry reported that the side of the Langxi River had been flooded, the debate over whether to continue to attack the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty came to an end. Missed the fireworks sent by Lang Duhuo, so Lang Dusheng's team was able to continue on the road.

Although Lang Shouyi's team has been preparing for battle for many years, it is a pity that they lack real combat experience. In the event of a battle, the usual procrastination problems in training and some details that do not attract attention will come out. A series of subtle mistakes made by Lang's army made them miss In order to seize the fleeting opportunity, the battle between the Lang family's army and the Datong army of the Ming Dynasty took a drastic turn.

The Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty successfully escaped the flood. The Datong Army trained by Xue Yun quickly displayed super combat effectiveness. When the command system of the entire Datong Army was not smooth, the generals of each unit followed the Datong Army’s military strategy. Articles, assuming the duties of the military chief officer, basically did not affect the normal operation of the Datong Army's combat system.

The Firearms Battalion led by Yu Si, Ji Tianen, and Lian Xiongwei successfully completed the independent combat mission of the troops, and dealt a heavy blow to the Lang Family Lang's Dusheng Division who came to attack. With two hundred corpses, the Firearms Battalion's own casualties were basically negligible.

In fact, more than half of the soldiers killed and injured in the water by Lang Dusheng were knocked down by startled horses or stepped into the water, and not many were actually killed and injured by the explosives of the Datong Army of the Ming Dynasty. There are not a few soldiers of the Lang family army who were slightly injured by the bombing by the Datong army, or who were frightened by the explosion scene.

Lang Dusheng looked angrily at the Datong Army on the opposite side, not knowing what else he could do to deal with them, but Lang Dusheng knew that Xue Yun's revenge would be unprecedentedly tragic after dawn. When he was on the right wing, Lang Dusheng no longer had any ideas.

Lang Dusheng regretted provoking the poisonous wolf Xue Yun of the Ming Dynasty very much. Since he had no chance of defeating the Datong Army, Lang Dusheng decisively ordered the entire army to break away from contact with the Datong Army. It became the umbrella for the smooth retreat of Lang's only son.

As soon as Lang Dusheng's team broke away from Yu Datong's army, Xue Yun arrived with Jiang Xi, Wang Erwa, Peng Langjun and other brigades. Wang Erwa hurried back to his team. Xue Yun looked at Wang Erwa likes to hang around so much, and really wants to let him be a leader of the soldiers for the rest of his life, but Xue Yun still wants to give Wang Erwa some opportunities to practice. It is a pity for him to control the troops and become the general who leads the party alone.

Yu Si, Ji Tianen, and Lian Xiongwei came to Xue Yun and told Xue Yun about the previous battle process. Excellent, it seems that these confidant generals of myself have grown up.
