Thank you for giving Shuaiguo motivation!

While Wu Weizhong and the others were marching cautiously outside the Great Wall, Li Rusong had already galloped all the way to Wei Xuezeng's camp.

"Last General Li Rusong pays homage to Marshal Wei!"

Wei Xuezeng hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Rusong up. Wei Xuezeng grabbed Li Rusong's arm and said, "General Li, you have worked hard all the way. Is Ning Yuanbo in good health?"

Just as Li Rusong was on his way to Wei Xuezeng's camp, the Ministry of War far away in the capital sent the latest military appointment. The Ministry of War appointed Li Rusong as the new Ningxia Commander-in-Chief to cooperate with Wei Xuezeng in putting down the rebellion of Kuai Bai and others.

Wei Xue took Li Rusong to talk about old times, and they seemed to have a very close relationship.

Li Rusong said: "Thanks to the Commander-in-Chief's concern, my father is still in good health."

Wei Xuezeng sighed: "Wow, wow, your father is in good health. This is a blessing to the court. He is the pillar of Liaodong!"

Li Rusong said: "I would like to thank the commander-in-chief for the compliment on my father's behalf."

Then, Li Rusong said: "Commander, this is a personal letter written by my father before leaving."

Li Rusong took out a letter from the soft armor on his chest and handed it to Wei Xuezeng.

Wei Xuezeng took the letter and then browsed the letter Li Chengliang sent him.

After reading it, Wei Xuezeng sighed: "Ning Yuanbo is indeed as good as a famous general. He clearly saw the weaknesses of the traitors such as Kuai Bai and others. With Ning Yuanbo's advice and General Li's help, I

, this time we will definitely be able to defeat the rebels in one battle!"

Then, Wei Xuezeng and Li Rusong discussed the military plan in the camp and began to plan such a counterattack against Kuai Bai and other rebellious attacks.

Wei Xuezeng and Li Rusong finally discussed that deputy commander-in-chief Li Yu, Zhao Wu and others would lead the troops across the Yellow River to attack the castle occupied by the Kuaibai rebels.

Li Rusong led the Liaodong cavalry out of the border to fight and intercept the Mongolian tribes who were attacking the Pinglu, and focused on the rebellious Mongolian tribes such as Tu.

The counterattack against Kuaibai's rebellion began from this moment on.

When Li Yu crossed the river to fight, he thought that the rebels would hold on to the castle and prepare for a hard battle.

As a result, the rebels who defended the city took the initiative to abandon the occupied city after learning that the imperial army had a large number of soldiers and had siege artillery.

Li Yu and other generals effortlessly recaptured the forty-seven cities occupied by the Kuaibai rebels.

When Wei Xuezeng, who was at Huamachi Camp, saw the military report sent by Li Yu and others, he couldn't believe it. It was like a dream.

I thought it would be a long and hard battle, but I didn't expect it to be over as soon as it started.

Therefore, Wei Xuezeng, who was extremely happy, hurriedly reported his victory to the court and boasted that within three months in Haikou, the heads of the traitor Kuai Bai and others would be presented to the palace of Beijing.

After the Beijing Ministry of War received the report of Wei Xuezeng's military victory, they were all overjoyed. This was all the result of their well-planned and strategic planning.

So, they took the news of Wei Xuezeng's success and sent it to Emperor Wanli.

Emperor Wanli couldn't help but be overjoyed after seeing the good news. Being able to finish the battle earlier would mean he could spend a lot less money.

Emperor Wanli said happily: "Wei Xuezeng is good and I am very optimistic about him. I encourage him to keep up his efforts and strive to wipe out the rebels as soon as possible."

Shi Xing, Minister of War, replied: "Yes, I will convey the emperor's will to him now."

Wei Xuezeng, who was fighting in Ningxia, was indeed unstoppable. He quickly suppressed the rebellion outside Ningxia Town.

Now the rebels have been surrounded in Ningxia Town.

Li Yu, who was the first to arrive at the gate of Ningxia Town, was so excited that he couldn't express his emotions when he saw this great achievement.

Before Li Yu could wait for Wei Xuezeng's latest military order, he couldn't wait to lead his troops to attack Ningxia Town. He wanted to win the first victory in annihilating the rebels in one fell swoop!

When the Kuaibai rebels saw Li Yu's eagerness to attack the city, they gritted their teeth angrily. Naturally, they couldn't just give in. After all, everyone came out to rebel, so no one wants to lose face!

So, I don’t know what happened to Kuaibai’s brain, but three thousand brave and capable cavalry were sent out from each of the east and west gates to fight against Li Xi’s attack. At the same time, the infantry formed a train formation! Of course, this train was not the current train.

Instead, the cart was on fire with a burning object on top.

Li Yu looked at Kuai Bai's mysterious operation, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Kuai Bai's gourd. He looked at the rows of trains, and Li Yu didn't give up.

As soon as Li Yu gave the order, his officers and soldiers swarmed forward and immediately killed all the infantrymen sent by Kuaibai. In the end, they even robbed more than a hundred trains and returned.

Then, they pursued all the way and forced the rebels under Kuaibai into the lake. Many of Kuaibai's rebels drowned.

At the same time, a deputy commander who was still attacking the city in Ningxia Town was extremely reckless.

This deputy commander named Wang Tong led his servants all the way to the top of Ningxia Town!

Yes, you read that right. This commander-in-chief didn’t lead any troops, but was fighting with his servants. How about it? Isn’t this magical?

However, such operations were not uncommon in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. Because at this time, the army had gradually begun to become privatized and warlord-like. Many of the soldiers under the generals were not actually guardsmen of the imperial court, but themselves.

Recruited servants!

And why they can be so rich and recruit servants to fight is a very interesting question. I won’t break it down here.

Wang Tong led his well-armed servants to the city wall of Ningxia Town, howling and screaming. One of his servants named Gao Yi was the most courageous. He was the first to break through the obstruction of the Kuaibai rebels, and marched in all the way.

Go to the north gate of Ningxia Town!

However, because he was too reckless, he did not have enough troops on his side, and the reinforcements had not arrived for a long time. Therefore, Gao Yi, a servant who was extremely reckless, hated the battlefield and was killed by the Kuaibai rebels in Ningxia Town.

Among them, Wang Tong did not fall behind at all, but fortunately his servants worked hard to protect him. Therefore, he broke out from the siege of the rebels in Kuaibai, but he was still injured.

The first time, Li Yu, Wang Tong and others' attack on the city ended in failure.

After the siege failed, Li Yu and Wang Tong sat together, staring at each other, both blaming the other for not doing enough, which led to the failure of the siege.

Both of them wanted to kill each other. However, they were of similar levels and did not belong to the same family, so no one could do anything about it. They could only get into a quarrel and get sullen, and decided to attack the city again tomorrow!

As a result, on the second day, a new situation appeared!

Xu Chao, one of the rebels, Tu Wenxiu caught Qing Wang Zhu Shuai Zin somewhere.

These two hundred and fifty men actually forced King Qing to climb to the top of the city, begging for a temporary truce, and even falsely claimed that they were willing to sacrifice the heads of those who initiated the rebellion. Isn't this a joke? Can they chop off Kuai Bai's head? No way.

!This trick is too low-level!

However, when Li Yu and Wang Tong saw His Royal Highness King Qing on the top of the city, they were dumbfounded. If they attacked the city and killed King Qing, the credit they received would become a sin. They could not do this anymore.

Moreover, the two of them considered that they had finished eating the food and grass they had brought, so they had no choice but to continue.
