Chapter 2231 Unstoppable
The scattered remnants of Wu Taiji were like a herd of pigs and sheep, being hacked and killed from behind by the heroic Ming army, and their blood was sprinkled on this vast land.
This elite Mongolian army, numbering more than 10,000 people, once ran rampant across the Nine Borders, robbed a lot of food and women from the Ming Dynasty, and stained the blood of countless people of the Ming Dynasty. But now it is time to pay off the debt.
moment.
They have now suffered unprecedented heavy losses. Their tribal leader Wu Taiji was beheaded by a long sword from Shihua Mountain, and more than half of the people left their lives here.
Even those who were lucky enough to escape back were frightened out of their wits. The experience of this night was destined to be deeply engraved in their memories, and they would never dare to take a peek at China again, or even step into China again.
land.
The Shi Jiajun who swept everything, the Ma Jiajun who played crazy, and the cavalry battalion with well-equipped firearms, these will be the three invincible tanks of the Ming Dynasty.
Regardless of whether the people of the Wutai Ji tribe died or fled, this war has come to an end. The Chinese nation has won a victory over the Mongols and fought a very beautiful ambush battle.
During the pursuit and killing, the waning moon in the sky gradually faded, and the entire sky became darker.
"Hush!"
After several miles of continuous pursuit, the Ming army's various troops reined in their horses one after another, stopped their pursuit, and turned their horses' heads to return.
In addition to everyone's military exploits, they also began to collect the spoils of war.
Thanks to the extremely high-quality weapons provided by the Ministry of War earlier, they no longer looked down upon Mongolian knives and bows, but only valued horses.
Even though the Ministry of War was so powerful that they obtained sophisticated weapons for them, the horses of the Ming Dynasty did have inherent deficiencies. Even if Guan Jinbo had focused on cultivating excellent war horses, it would still take some time.
Whether the captured Mongolian horses are kept in the army for personal use or handed over to the court as trophies in exchange for silver rewards, this is a hidden income.
Just like this, although they had just experienced a fierce battle and some people were even injured, everyone had gained a lot and naturally had bright smiles on their faces.
In addition to gaining military merit and war horses, they also fought a beautiful ambush this time, killing nearly 10,000 Mongolian elites at a very small cost, and it was a rare victory.
You must know that this kind of great victory in leaving the customs can probably be traced back to the reign of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, this experience will become the most dazzling resume of their military career and will also become their bragging capital in the future.
Although the sky looked dark, the joy of victory was clearly visible on their faces.
At the same time, at the mouth of the unknown valley, countless corpses were lying on the grass there, and the smell of blood in the air was diluted by the wind.
After Shi Huashan dispatched the fusiliers led by his son Shi Hao, he did not lead the main force of heavy cavalry to participate in the chase, but stayed here to clean up the battlefield.
Facing the Mongolians who were not completely dead, or the Mongolians who were hiding among the piles of corpses trying to escape, they didn't mind stabbing them again.
"puff!"
"No, poof!"
"Spare your life, poof!"
…
Shi Jiajun never believed in good men and women, so he constantly checked the corpses on the ground. Once he found a Mongolian crawling on the ground pretending to be dead, he would kill them without hesitation.
Of course, they don't just kill people, they also perform the task of saving people.
More than a dozen young people from the United Hospital came with the army this time. Each one had a medicine box and was helping the injured Ming army soldiers treat their wounds.
When alcohol was poured down to disinfect a wound that was visible to the naked eye, the pain immediately made the commander-in-chief grin and scream.
Although the military doctor responsible for the treatment looked young, he was very experienced in handling the wound. He quickly applied medicine to the wound and then bandaged it with cotton cloth.
Since Lin Haoran concurrently served as Minister of War, he not only strengthened the troop building of the Ming army, but also attached great importance to the army's rescue capabilities. To this end, the United Hospital was asked to train a large number of military doctors.
Although Lin Haoran did not participate in the battle, various armies quietly bore Lin Haoran's brand, and his influence had already penetrated into all aspects of the army.
The waning moon in the sky is getting lighter and lighter, and the whole world has become darker.
It's just that this change in the celestial phenomena cannot affect them. All parties are focused on their own affairs and responsibilities. Those who kill continue to kill, and those who save people continue to save people. Everything seems to be going on in an orderly manner.
When things were almost done here, the neighing of horses was heard not far away.
Ma Fang led his main force back, and many of them had trophies in their hands, and many of them had excited smiles on their faces.
Although they had many dealings with the Mongols and had many records of killing the Mongols during Yang Bo's period, compared with this time, those records were simply not worth mentioning.
Especially in the past, the victory results were often based on "killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred". How can we fight so comfortably now, with very small losses in exchange for great achievements.
Ma Fang was the one who felt the deepest feeling. He had witnessed Lin Haoran's three ingenious layouts with his own eyes, but he knew that Yang Bo's so-called military leader in the Ming Dynasty was just a boast from the Shanxi gang. In fact, Yang Bo was not worthy of carrying Lin Haoran's shoes.
This time, they broke the routine and achieved such a victory. The target of special killing was the elite Wutaiji tribe of Anda. This was something that was unthinkable before, but it was easy in Lin Haoran's hands.
realized.
Under the dim sky, Ma Fang had a bright smile on his face. He just raised his head and saw that Shihuashan had let go a Mongolian who had just pretended to be dead. He couldn't help but feel excited and stared in disbelief.
Eye.
But he never expected that the most powerful general of the Ming Dynasty would turn out to be a traitor to the Ming Dynasty.
The Mongolian got on his horse, first raised his hand towards Shihua Mountain, and then galloped towards the west.
Shi Huashan raised his head and glanced at the dumbfounded Ma Fang, then explained calmly: "I just checked his token and verified his identity. He is indeed an internal agent deployed by the Military Intelligence Department in Mongolia!"
If there is any difference between the Ministry of War in charge of Lin Haoran and the past, it is that Lin Haoran attaches great importance to intelligence work, but has established a ubiquitous military intelligence department, and even personnel have already penetrated into Anda's internal affairs.
Whether it is him, the commander-in-chief of Datong, or Ma Fang, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, they are already aware of the existence of the Military Intelligence Department, and they have always provided some conveniences to those holding military intelligence commander badges and identification certificates.
Now that someone from the Military Intelligence Department has fallen into his hands, he naturally cannot kill him, but must put him back and continue to provide intelligence to the Ming Dynasty.
When Ma Fang heard these words, she immediately blushed and wiped her nose to hide her embarrassment: "General Shi, you don't have to tell me this, can I still doubt you?"
"We were able to fight this battle so comfortably because of the intelligence provided by the personnel of the Military Intelligence Department. I am the same as Mr. Lin Ge. Even though some of them worked so hard for money, they did provide help for our victory.
, so I respect the people of the Military Intelligence Department from the bottom of my heart!" Shi Huashan knew that what should be explained clearly had to be explained clearly in person. The charge of Tonglu was either a joke or a way to express his position.
.
When Ma Fang heard this explanation, he sighed and said: "General Shi, you don't need to say more! I can fight the Tatars with you, I can fight under Lin Ge Lao, I feel from the bottom of my heart that I
My life has not been in vain! As for Yang Bo and the Shanxi Gang, I have already given them hell, and I will not do anything that turns against the light!"
"Okay, then let's fight the Tatars together, and follow Lin Ge Lao in the northern and southern wars!" Shi Huashan stretched out a strong palm and said with a firm gaze.
Sitting on the horse, Ma Fang followed Shi Huashan and shook his hand, completing the agreement between men.
The fact that they were able to play such a beautiful blocking battle tonight was due to their own strength, but it was also due to Lin Haoran's strategizing behind the scenes.
Without the Qi Army's pre-emptive strike and containment of Anda's main force, and without the cavalry battalion's strategy to lure the enemy, how could they possibly have such a battle of bullying the weak?
That's why their success this time was inseparable from the big man who strategized. Only such a Minister of War with terrifying military talents is worthy of their following.
Qiao Yifeng also led the cavalry battalion back. Everyone seemed to be in high spirits and had gained a lot, especially Qiao Yifeng who was filled with a bright smile.
This was the first time that his cavalry battalion officially participated in the war. Now that they had such impressive results, he seemed extremely excited. With this outstanding record, it would be difficult for the court to easily disband their cavalry battalion in the future.
The reason why Zhenwu Camp in Nanjing was disbanded was not only because Zhenwu Camp committed suicide, but more importantly, they did not demonstrate their own value at all, but they did not kill even a single Japanese.
However, their cavalry battalion first captured the Urad tribe this time, then lured Ujitai here and assisted the Shi Jiajun and Ma Jiajun in completing the encirclement and suppression. This record was enough for the cavalry battalion to stand proudly in the Ming Dynasty.
Dawn has broken in the eastern sky, and the whole world suddenly takes on a different color.
After the three armies met in the valley here, they did not stay where they were. Instead, they sent a group of scouts to explore the surrounding areas and headed towards Badaling.
Their move is not to take the opportunity to annihilate the Anda headquarters, nor is it to engage in a head-on confrontation with the Anda headquarters. If they fail to obtain effective cooperation from the Jizhou Army and their numbers are at a disadvantage, the three armies will engage in a head-on battle with the Anda headquarters and
Don't take advantage.
The most important thing is that there is a powerful Mongolian cavalry stationed dozens of miles away. Once that garrison comes to encircle and suppress them, this great victory is likely to turn into a great defeat.
Just when they were planning to return from the pass, they unexpectedly learned that Anda's headquarters had evacuated from Badaling, so they decided to return to the pass through Badaling.
Earlier, Anda learned about the defeat of Wu Taiji's tribe, especially the death of Wu Taiji, whom he had always regarded highly, in battle. The internal injuries he had been suppressing suddenly surged with energy and blood, and he vomited a mouthful of blood, and then
The whole person fell into a coma.
Huang Taiji saw his father Khan in such a condition, and he was deeply aware of the terror of the Ming army under the leadership of Lin Haoran, so he had previously opposed the troops' invasion of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, regardless of the obstruction of Zhao Quan and others, he immediately ordered the camp to retreat, directly gave up the unrealistic tactical idea of invading the Ming Dynasty, and returned to the royal city with the seriously injured An Da.
The morning sun has risen in the east, and the first ray of sunlight falls on the pass at Badaling.
Although the war has ended long ago, there are still many soldiers standing on the top of the city. When the morning sun falls on them, they vaguely see a brand new China.
Everything last night was like a dream. They faced the menacing Mongolian cavalry, but they fought a beautiful sneak attack and defensive battle.
But the corpses and swaying trees outside the city told them that everything last night was true, and they had really severely wounded the Mongolian cavalry.
Many soldiers had no sleep all night, but they helped to slaughter pigs and sheep, already preparing a sumptuous breakfast for everyone. The entire Badaling Pass was filled with a festive atmosphere, as if it was about to celebrate the New Year.
In the city, the temporary residence of the Commander-in-Chief.
Lin Haoran retreated from Duotai Jibu and returned to the city to rest. But others may not know it, but he knew in his heart that a war would also take place.
Especially when he learned that Qiao Yifeng had successfully lured the enemy and led Wu Tai Ji's tribe towards the west, he couldn't help but be very concerned about the outcome of this battle.
Although he had adopted the optimal tactics, he was still worried about unexpected surprises, such as whether a large army of 50,000 people would suddenly arrive, so he did not sleep soundly in bed.
The reason why Lin Haoran was able to succeed in many calculations was not only due to his extraordinary wisdom and sense of smell, but also due to his carefulness in doing things.
After tossing and turning on the bed, he simply stopped forcing himself to sleep, and instead asked Lin Fu to bring tea, but waited in the yard.
However, this move was painful for Lin Fu, but he led the guards to guard Lin Haoran, but he couldn't help but feel sleepy, and finally fell asleep with his back against the wall.
Finally, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and I knew in my heart that news had come.
Lin Haoran heard the commotion, but no matter how nervous and concerned he was, he couldn't show it. He even continued to enjoy the rare sunrise scene here.
"Mr. Lin Ge, news has just arrived that Commander Shi and Commander Ma have killed thousands of Wutaiji tribesmen, captured countless war horses, and are heading towards our Badaling Pass!" Zhang Jun's face was filled with excitement.
Color, it is to report the report excitedly.
Lin Haoran finally saw the rising sun leaping out from the top of the mountain, a long-lost smile appeared on his face, and his eyes shone with confidence.
Chapter completed!
