The night wind resisted the plateau. Zhu Hui and Yang Yiqing stood side by side on the top of the city, looking at the Tatar camp with bonfires stretching outside the city.
Three days have passed, and there is still no sign of the arrival of reinforcements. Both Zhu Hui and Yang Yiqing have understood that there is no chance of rescue. However, this is no longer important. Three days ago, Yang Yiqing had agreed to Zhu Hui's suggestion.
, decided to break out.
Instead of waiting to die, it is better to give it a try and keep the soldiers fed for a few days while there are still a few days of food.
Tonight is the day for the army to break through. In the small Dongsheng City, the dark army of 130,000 has been completely organized. At this moment, they are all standing quietly in the city. More than 100,000 soldiers and horses have almost filled all the streets in the city.
The soldiers made no noise or noise. They all stood silently in the muddy water, like silent trees, waiting for orders to be issued.

The sound of the watch sounded and it was already the third watch.
Zhu Hui retracted his gaze towards the dark depths of the grassland in the distance and picked up a glass of wine in front of him.
Yang Yiqing also picked up a glass of wine placed on the wall of the battlement, looked at Zhu Hui, and both of them smiled.
"The time has come. Mr. Yang, we are about to take action. Zhu will take the lead and break through the enemy's east camp first. Mr. Yang and the Chinese army will follow up. We will break through according to the original plan." Zhu Hui said solemnly.
Yang Yiqing smiled and nodded and said: "Okay, Lord Bao Guo, Lord Zhu, I didn't expect that you and I were not familiar with each other before. Even before, Mr. Yang had some hatred for you, Lord Bao. Today, we have become a common people who live and die together."
It’s really hard to figure out what fate does to people. Hahaha.”
Zhu Hui chuckled and said: "Yes, you foreign court officials are noble and look down on us, people from the ancestral family. I don't blame you. But in the face of foreign enemies, we are all ministers of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, we have to live and die together.
, you must not show weakness. Even if you die in battle, you cannot insult the dignity of my Ming Dynasty."
Yang Yiqing nodded and said: "That's exactly what I said. Lord Protector, if you and I can break through successfully this time, that's all. If I, Yang Yiqing, die here and you break out, please tell my old mother.
with my wife and daughter
Just say this, and say that I, Yang Yiqing, did not disgrace my Yang family, but died on the battlefield for the Ming Dynasty. Let them not be sad and live a good life. Let my wife Chen take good care of my mother, and provide for her old age and fulfill her filial piety for me."
Zhu Hui nodded slowly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, if I don't die, your mother will be taken into the house to support you. I don't have to worry. After I die, my six sons are all adults and can take care of themselves."
Prop up the lintel."
Yang Yiqing chuckled and said: "Okay. I really envy Duke Baoguo, but it's a pity that I have no children. But it doesn't matter. I am still an open-minded person. Come, drink this drink, and I will beat the drum at the top of the city to cheer you up.
."
"Okay." Zhu Hui raised his wine glass, and the two drank it down in one gulp, flashed the bottom of the glass to each other, and laughed together.

Zhu Hui threw the wine glass on the ground and smashed it into pieces. He flicked his cloak, turned around and shouted to the dozen generals around him: "Brothers, follow me to charge the camp and break out of the encirclement."
In the square inside the east city gate, Zhu Hui rode his horse and stood behind the city gate. Behind him were 3,500 cavalry. This was all the cavalry in the army. They would be the first wave of death squads to rush towards the enemy camp.
Zhu Hui will personally lead this first wave of cavalry to clear the way for the infantry behind.
The city gate slowly opened, and the night wind from the grassland blew in fiercely, making Zhu Hui's beard and hair flutter, and his cloak rustled. Outside the city gate, there was darkness. A few miles away, a bonfire flickered, and there were Tatars.
of Dongying.
"Sirs, whether you can break out of the siege and return to the Ming Dynasty alive depends on tonight. Even if you can't break out, blood will be spilled on the battlefield. That is our fate and our glory. Soldiers, we, the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars will not
Together, Dai Tian, follow me and fight your way out of here. I, the Ming Dynasty, am invincible in the world!"
Zhu Hui's voice echoed in the darkness, heartbreaking. In the darkness, countless voices roared, the sound shook the grassland and reached into the sky.
"I, the Ming Dynasty, am invincible in the world!"
"I, the Ming Dynasty, am invincible in the world!"
"..."
Zhu Hui urged the horses and let out an earth-shattering roar: "Kill!"
The war horse rushed out, kicking up the mud with its hooves, and rushed straight out of the city gate. Behind him, the cavalry urged their horses to follow, pouring out of the city gate like a torrent, and then quickly formed in formation, heading down the slope outside the city.
Down, they charged towards the Tatar's Dongying camp in front.

On the top of the city, Yang Yiqing came to a huge war drum that was erected, took the drumstick and started beating it.
The sound of the drums shook the eardrums, penetrated the darkness, and resounded throughout the city walls. A dark torrent of Ming soldiers poured out from the city gate, followed the cavalry and ran wildly towards the Tatar camp, shouting.
A brutal breakout battle began.
There was a commotion in the Tatar camp soon. The warning horn sounded, and the Tatar soldiers in the tent quickly got up. After a while, the whole camp was shouting and neighing, and it was boiling.
The 3,500 cavalry led by Zhu Hui rushed through the open wilderness and grassland like a strong wind, and arrived at the outskirts of the Tatar camp in less than a cup of tea. Some of the Tatar cavalry had already rushed out of the camp and came to engage in the battle.
The two sides collided fiercely on the dark grassland in front of the camp, making loud noises.
A loud and terrifying sound. Collision between man and horse, broken muscles and bones, flashes of swords and guns, dazzling. Splattered flesh and blood, dull heavy blows, dying screams, and the wails of war horses, all resounded through the wilderness in just an instant.
Above. This place also instantly became a hellish battlefield with blood and flesh splattering.
Zhu Hui held a long sword and charged forward. Although he was over fifty years old, his martial arts skills had not fallen behind. When he was a boy, he fought with his father in border towns. In the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, he led his army to defeat the young prince of the Huoshi tribe in Xitao.
He was so famous that he was not an ordinary person to be awarded the title of Duke. Therefore, he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu and guarded Xuanfu Town, a strategic border town north of the capital. This was also a reflection of his ability.
Zhu Hui and his cavalry guards rushed to the front of the team, and he killed more than ten Tatar cavalry people in a row. They were extremely brave. Under Zhu Hui's encouragement, the Ming army cavalry were also brave and powerful.
But Zhu Hui knew in his heart that this was a sudden attack, and the Tatars had not yet organized their troops. The Tatar camp was still in chaos, and there were less than 2,000 Tatar troops who rushed out to fight. There were tens of thousands of Tatars in the east camp.
, they will all be put into battle soon.
Moreover, all the Tatars in the southeast, north and south will soon be dispatched. Therefore, the cavalry must rush into the camp quickly, so that the following infantry can avoid the danger of outflanking and can engage the Tatar cavalry in close combat.
The drums at the top of the city were rumbling. Yang Yiqing was sweating profusely as he beat the drums. He looked at the torrent of Ming troops below covering the battlefield and rushing towards the enemy camp. He looked at the sound of killing in front of the enemy camp in the distance. Yang Yiqing
There is a feeling of being in a dream.

He was originally a scholar, but for so many years, he traveled to the northwest, leading the army as a civilian to guard the border. Over the years, he had studied a lot of military art, but he knew that he was not the material. But fate brought him to where he is today, more than ten years old.
Wan Dajun was forced to break through. He knew that this was a forced attack and the result might not be as expected. However, this was obviously the most important moment in his life. Whether it was life or death, it was the most glorious moment in his life.
"Master Yang, the Chinese army has left the city. We should fight out too." Ningxia guerrilla general Peng Yue reported loudly.
Yang Yiqing put down the drumstick, nodded and said: "Okay. Let's kill it."
…
Zhu Hui completed his mission, and 3,500 cavalrymen stood in front of the enemy camp for just a stick of incense. When thousands of cavalrymen on both sides of the enemy camp surrounded and strangled them, less than a thousand people were left.
, followed by a wave of infantry charges.
There were too many Ming troops, and they came all at once. Soon, the Tatar cavalry suffered from being entangled by the infantry. The Ming troops trapped the Tatar cavalry, cannibalized and strangled them. Although it was two for one,
Even the casualty ratio of three to one was effective in killing the enemy, but the nearly 6,000 cavalrymen of the Tatar East Camp who had been reorganized and went into battle were quickly dispersed and thousands were strangled.
The influx of a large number of infantry forced the Tatar cavalry to retreat to avoid the edge. In this way, more than a thousand cavalry led by Zhu Hui in front were able to escape.
Zhu Hui, who was covered in blood, was already injured. He was attacked in the back by an enemy general and hit hard with a mace. Although he hit back with a knife to kill the attacking Tatar general, this blow was enough.
He suffered.
Although he was wearing armor, and Baoguo Gong's armor was the Mingguang Armor, which is a valuable armor with strong protective capabilities. It can prevent cuts and stabs, but it is difficult to prevent heavy blows. The opponent hit Zhu Hui with a mace, and his mouth was shaking.
Blood spurted out from inside. If it weren't for the armor, the powerful Tatar's stick could kill a soldier with ordinary armor.
But even though he was injured, the battle had just begun. After the horse and infantry merged, the task was to continue to advance and continue to advance towards the enemy camp.

Under Zhu Hui's loud orders and urging, the Ming army rushed forward desperately. They broke through the enemy's front camp and rushed into the core of the enemy's camp. Countless pairs of feet stepped on the ground, forming an unstoppable force that kept rushing forward.
Out of the Tatar Dongying, which is several miles wide.
When the soldiers and horses broke through the enemy camp and faced the unhindered wilderness, many Ming soldiers cheered happily. They never expected that tonight's breakout would break through the enemy camp so smoothly and rush away.
The Tatars were not as tough as expected. It turned out that there were times when they were afraid to evacuate, and there were times when they were chased and killed by infantry.
To the southeast, the night was vast, but the soldiers of the Ming army knew that as long as they continued to charge southeast, they would be in the direction of the Ming border town and the way to survive. At this moment, their confidence doubled because they felt the fear and timidity of the Tatars. These Tatars
In the end, they actually fled to both sides of the camp, not daring to fight head-on.
However, what many of the cheering soldiers didn't know was that their nightmare was about to begin.
