Blood from Daming

Chapter 82 Rescue
Furious, Huang Taiji returned to Jianzhou Camp and invited the leaders of Abatai and Khalkha of Mongolia, Niu Luzhang Jingda Yinbu, Boerjin, Yaxichan and others to discuss the military situation.

Huang Taiji encouraged everyone that the Ming army was only good at defending the city, and our Jurchens ruled the field. As long as the Ming army was brought out of the city, the victory would basically be in the hands of the Jurchen warriors. At that time, Datong City was like a city. Naked babes let us do whatever we want.

Encouraged by Jianzhou's subordinates and the leaders of the five Khalkha tribes, their greed arose again. Huang Taiji said, "We will share the city of Datong equally, and let Wu Keshan, the red guy, go to hell."

So Huang Taiji sent about 800 people from Abatai's headquarters and two troops from Muboha and Qibush to surround and attack the border fort of Datong Town. The Ministry of the Ming Dynasty and the Ministry of Wuer and the Ministry of the Ming Dynasty ambushed in the northwest of Datong Baideng Mountain and waited for the Ming army of Datong to go out of the city and cut off their way back.

Huang Taiji brought with him more than 500 Jianzhou Tartars, all the army and horses of the five tribes of Khalkha, the Jalut tribe, the Jilaxi tribe, the Muboha tribe, the Qibush tribe, the Bayuete tribe, and the Kuerga tribe. Thousands of elite knights from the army were guerrilla near Zhenchuan Fort, waiting for the Ming army of Datong to throw themselves into the trap.

Xue Yun received the information from Wu Keshan and discussed with Miss Yu and Harijula ​​in private.

Miss Yu: "Our army goes out to fight in the city. If the enemy from Baishan Mountain cuts our way back, and Huang Taiji quickly besieges our troops with cavalry, there is no force in the city to rescue us. Our army is very likely to fail."

Xue Yun: "I'm not familiar with Mongolian tribes. Does Harijula ​​know something about the five tribes of Khalkha?"

Harizhula: "I also know that the five tribes of Khalkha have their own clansmen who defected to the Jurchen and Lindan Khan respectively. The Muboha tribe and the Qibush tribe have been fully integrated into Jianzhou. The Kubu tribe is dependent, and the Zarut tribe is the one that is most worried about defeating the Jurchen."

Xue Yun: "Hari Zhula probably means that Huang Taiji is consuming the Jarut tribe, using or weakening the Bayuete tribe and the Kuerga tribe to protect the Muboha tribe and the Qibush tribe, isn't it so?" Harijula ​​nodded.

Miss Yu: "According to your analysis, those who want to fight can't be fought, and those who can fight are all deliberately let you fight by Huang Taiji. With your hands, we can achieve the purpose of eliminating the powerful strength of aliens, and at the same time, we can fight off our vital strength. "

Xue Yun leaned on the bed and thought, the three of them were tired of the bed, Xue Yun was playing with Miss Yu and Hari Zhula's jade hands all the time, Miss Yu got angry after waiting for a long time: "I'm asking about your business, you Why are you always messing with your brains?"

Xue Yun looked very aggrieved: "Miss, am I looking for inspiration? Do you think we should change our thinking and stop thinking about saving the town and border fort? Huang Taiji thinks he is smart in dividing his troops, so let's just take one bite at a time." Eat them all, and when he wakes up, there are not many people left."

Miss Yu: "You mean to prepare to defeat them one by one."

Xue Yun: "You guessed it not completely right. Our Ming Dynasty had to adopt tactics of pulling and fighting against Mongolia. We must be careful not to have too deep enmity with the tribes of Mongolia. The focus is still on the Tartars."

Miss Yu: "The Mongolian ministries are not good people. Is it necessary to treat them softly after the country has fought for 200 years?"

Xue Yun pondered for a long time: "Sister Qin, don't you hear the story of Yan Sanwei, Zhu Di, the former King of Yan?"

Miss Yu let go of Xue Yun's hand in a daze for a while and said, "Could it be that you want to learn from Yan Wang Zhu Di."

Xue Yun caressed Harijula ​​in his arms: "Sister, you think too much. I'm just protecting myself. Do you know that someone in the imperial court has been peeping at the position of the General Soldier of Datong? This time the success report is half a day late." At this time, the top officer of Datong has changed, and I will work for a few more days before my future father-in-law has a chance to be the chief soldier of Datong."

Miss Yu mocked Xue Yun: "In this way, you can also make up a crooked reason."

Xue Yun shook his head: "I never wanted to harm you, but you just wanted to throw yourself into a trap. Don't you know how many people died in Beijing because of the Gu Zhengnan case? I also left Datong because of this case. Be careful that hundreds of members of the Xue family will die because of me, and the subordinates who were born and died with me may also die in Huangquan."

Miss Yu panted, "I didn't think so far."

Xue Yun also pulled Elder Sister Qin into his arms: "It's just the people Xue and Yu killed in Datong. One day we don't have a knife handle in our hands. I'm afraid our fate will be worse than those who died in our hands." People are not as good as you are." Miss Yu just lay in Xue Yun's arms without speaking, trembling like a wounded deer.

In the next few days, messengers from Zhenbian Fort rushing into Datong City every day, Xue Yun was even more calm. The more noisy there was, the more it meant that Huang Taiji had ghosts, otherwise these messengers would have gone to see the King of Hades long ago. .Eunuch Zhang, the eunuch of the supervising army, came several times to urge Xue Yun to send troops. Xue Yun felt that the time had come and finally agreed to lead troops out of the city to rescue the town and border fort.

In the name of insufficient troops, Xue Yun ordered Datong Weiluo Commander to transfer the guards from the south. Datong Weiluo Commander did not want to see his fortress destroyed, so he assembled 1000 guard infantry, and he himself drew from the city. [-] guard soldiers were recruited, and they set off with a large number of box cars, box cars, and unicycle chariots.

Xue Yun sent troops to rescue Wubao, and the whole Datong Mansion was aware of the turmoil. The support team finally left the east gate of Datong City. Xue Yun led more than 6000 cavalry, 6000 infantry called [-], and more than [-] cavalry surrounded [-] infantry. Crawl forward like a snail, stop and go along the way, and set up camp after walking only twenty miles a day.

Zhenchuanbao Huangtaiji's brigade is hidden here. Because the terrain along the fort is flat, there is no danger of mountains and rivers to rely on. In the early years, the Mongolian soldiers destroyed the wall twice and went deep. Or collectively moved to the town's border fort, Huang Taiji put tens of thousands of horses into the castle just to hide the team, waiting for Xue Yun's troops to arrive, and then attacked them by surprise and hit them by surprise, eliminating Xue Yun, the enemy of life and death, in one fell swoop.

Huang Taiji, Niu Luzhang Jing Boerjin, Niu Luzhang Jing Yaxichan, Zhalu Tebu Ji Laxi and others gathered together. It is already evening, and Xue Yun's team has only walked about [-]% of the way. According to this speed, the fastest It will be the day after tomorrow before we can arrive at the town border fort.

Huang Taiji felt that something was wrong there, so he asked, "Can the spies confirm Xue Yun's exact strength?"

Borjin: "Baile can be sure that although it claims to have 2 horses, there are actually only more than 6000 cavalry and 6000 infantry. Without combat effectiveness, more than [-] cavalry spies found that some soldiers were not very proficient in riding horses.”

Yashichan: "Baylor, let's rush up, I really can't wait."

Huang Taiji sighed: "No, the Ming army will know as soon as our troops move. They are too close to the city and it is easy to retreat. It seems that we have to wait until tomorrow to find a fighter."

When Huang Taiji was asleep and it was almost dawn, his servants came in to report that the Ming army was less than [-] miles away from the town's border fort when they pulled out their camp at midnight last night.Huang Taiji hurriedly ordered the Ming army to organize the team and prepare to fight against Xue Yun, but what was the Ming army doing in a daze, there was something weird about marching in the middle of the night there.

Xue Yun's march in the middle of the night was clearly seen by Niu Luzhang Jingda Yinbu who was ambushing on Baideng Mountain early on. As soon as Xue Yun walked away, Niu Luzhang Jingda Yinbu led a thousand Jianzhou cavalry and Bayue special troops, A total of more than 7000 troops of the Ergao Department ambushed in the northwest of Baideng Mountain. They came to camp [-] miles away from Datong City to block the return of the Datong Ming Army back to the city.

It is said that after the mantis caught the cicada and the oriole, shortly after leaving Dayinbu, a 1000-man cavalry unit of the Ming army entered the original Dayinbu camp. General Xue Liu.

In fact, Xue Yun was really amused by Huang Taiji's overly superstitious belief in Jurchen's field combat capabilities. The ambushes fell under the noses of the Datong Army. I was exhausted and hungry, and my combat effectiveness plummeted.

Xue Yun secretly replaced Xue Liu's cavalry with the infantry of the Ministry of War, and replaced Miss Yu's 6000 cavalry with the infantry of Deputy General Yu. This time, among the more than [-] cavalry that followed Xue Yun, there were [-] infantry on horseback. Paralyzing Huang Taiji made him hesitant to attack the Ming army. The march at midnight was actually to lure Da Yinbu and the others to leave Baishan Mountain. Only Xue Yun, Xue Liu, Miss Yu and Deputy General Yu knew about this plan.

At dawn, Dayinbu's camp had not yet been completed, and suddenly the camp was on fire. This pass, which Dayinbu thought was the most suitable for garrisoning troops to break the road, had long been covered with weeds and gunpowder by Xue Yun, and was lit by the Ming army. The camp was in chaos for a while. The thick flames and smoke made the soldiers miserable, and Dayinbu immediately ordered the whole team when he knew that something was wrong.

But it was too late and the cavalry from the third route had already rushed to the position. The 7000 or so men in Dayinbu were still in a mess. The main force of the Ming army returned from the north route with more than 4000 soldiers led by Xue Yun. Bai Dengshan attacked the west side of Dayinbu, and the east side was blocked by Miss Yu's thousand cavalry who encircled him. Only the south side had no Ming soldiers and horses, but that was the direction to Datong City, and it was probably a dead end.

Niu Luzhang Jing Dayinbu tried his best to shrink the team, and four or five hundred Jianzhou soldiers gathered around him. Unfortunately, the tribes of Bayuete and Kuerga were defeated. Dayinbu watched the large groups of tribal soldiers fleeing to the south. The Dayinbu cavalry scurrying around in the crowd of Bayuete and Kuerga could not make the horses run at all.

At this time, shouts of "Ming army will not kill the Mongols", "Mongols will not die", "Mongols should not give their lives to the Tartars", "Mongols will reward 50 taels of silver for killing a Tartar", "Kill the Tartars will be rewarded" shouts Voice.
