Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 362
Hongguang two years, June [-]th.

After traveling for more than half a month, Master Wang and Gao Jie finally "reunited" in Yongyu Town, Xiao County.

Yongcheng Town, Yongcheng Mountain, and Yongcheng Lake.

With a large plain and plenty of water, this is definitely a suitable battlefield.

Therefore, Li Jingwu chose here.

Similarly, Gao Jie also chose this place.

The 200,000 army stretches for hundreds of miles, intertwined and chaotic, and the villages, towns, and farmlands that have been harmed along the way are countless.

Gao Jie looked up and saw the Ming army on the opposite side. The barracks were neat and full of flags, which seemed to be orderly.

But on my own side, it was really chaotic.

If the number of camps is wrong, the size and scale of the camps will naturally be different. Coupled with the fear of each other, you will waste a lot of time fighting each other.

It took a day to survive.

"This Ming army is a little different."

Gao Jie muttered, a trace of regret arose in his heart at this moment.

Of the four towns in Jiangbei back then, except for Huang Degong, he didn't care about the other two towns at all, and even dared to fight together to seize Yangzhou.

Now there are only 80,000 people in front of him, but he feels tall.

At night, Gao Jie couldn't let go of his palpitations, resisted his exhaustion, and started to watch the night.

"Come on, cheer me up!"

He kicked the dozing guard down with one kick, while yelling.

After some hard work on his part, he finally improved the barracks.

However, the 200,000 people were divided into ten camps, next to each other, and he couldn't make an inspection.

Suddenly, there was a noise next to his ears.

"Ying Xiao--"

Startled, Gao Jie's face turned pale instantly.

"Quick, what's wrong?"

With an order, Gao Jie became more and more uneasy.

After a while, I saw flames shooting up into the sky in the distance, like a section of red clouds, illuminating the entire night with light.

"Where is this flame coming from?"

"General soldier, this seems to be General Li Chengdong's camp."

The guards on the side watched and couldn't help but say.

"Li Chengdong? He and Qin Dapeng are in the same military camp!"

Gao Jie said in a deep voice: "He has always been bold and cautious, how could he be so careless?"

In order to better command the entire army, Gao Jie placed his trusted generals in the same battalion as the feared army for supervision.

Once something happens, it's better to deal with it in time.

"Tonight, it's hard!"

Gao Jie couldn't help sighing.

At this time, in Li Chengdong's barracks, a fire was raging and a large number of tents were burned, but Li Chengdong and Qin Dapeng seemed to be watching a play.

"I never thought that General Li would vote for the imperial court." Qin Dapeng's face was brightly illuminated by the fire, looking at Li Chengdong's cold face, he couldn't help but said.

"I was originally a member of the imperial court, an officer and a soldier, how could I vote for a traitor?"

Li Chengdong's eyes were bright, but he retorted: "I am utterly loyal, and I will not hesitate to draw a line with Gao Jie, a thief."

"it is good!"

At this time, another army suddenly poured in.

The two looked up, oh well, the next door was also on fire.

This trip, it seems that there is no choice.

Li Chengdong sighed in his heart.

"You two, Jinyiwei Baihu, Chu Yu, follow the plan tonight, and quickly lead the army out of the camp and go to the central army."

At this time, one of Qin Dapeng's personal guards suddenly walked out, with his head held high, and he spoke confidently.

Now, it was Li Chengdong's turn to be surprised.

Soon, a cavalry galloped forward, carrying the crowd forward.

Ten thousand, twenty thousand, forty thousand, one hundred thousand...

Half the barracks were ablaze, and countless troops fled, weapons in hand, and it was not known who they were aiming at.

At the same time, a large number of Ming troops also attacked in the middle of the night, and the entire ground seemed to be galloping, which was shocking.

"How is this possible, how is this possible?"

Gao Jie looked up at the endless army, the shock in his heart could not be washed away.

Everyone betrayed relatives, but that's all.

In the face of a large-scale army, simple fences and military villages are simply not enough to stop the enemy.

And he is like a flat boat in the waves of the river, drifting with the current and sinking easily.

"This is the general trend!"

Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Li Jingwu couldn't help showing a confident smile.

He had never thought of defeating Gao Jie directly on the frontal battlefield. Such a battle damage would be too high, it was really not a good idea.

Therefore, a superficial night attack, coupled with internal and external collusion, is enough to defeat Gao Jie's military spirit, and thus win the battle.

"Controlling, probably half of Gao Jie's subordinates have surrendered."

Aside, Prime Minister Whedon couldn't help asking.

The overwhelming fire was enough to drown out all the soldiers' morale.No matter how tough Gao Jie was, he could not escape the fate of defeat.

"Not bad!"

Li Jingwu showed a confident smile: "As the saying goes, go up to attack the army, secondly attack the diplomatic relations, and secondly attack the soldiers, and then attack the city."

"Jin Yiwei has been hooking up and down these days, infiltrating too much, coupled with Gao Jie's perverse actions, there are countless people who have turned from the dark to the bright."

"It will be settled later."

Immediately, Li Jingwu waved his hand, and the Cavalry Battalion, Mingguang Battalion, Minghui Battalion, etc. also all attacked, beating the dogs in the water.

Nearly [-] Huoying soldiers and horses rushed forward at all costs, like a flood flooding the embankment, destroying the entire barracks.

Gao Jie and the tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command struggled desperately, but to no avail.

"Hey, will you use these low-level methods to fight a real battle?"

Gao Jie was in a hurry and kept cursing.

But no matter how loudly he shouted, no one paid any attention to him.

Helpless, he could only look for the direction secretly, preparing to escape.

As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood.

"A group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, I will kill you alive sooner or later."

After cursing angrily, Gao Jie couldn't wait to run away.

After leaving Yongcheng Town, there were less than [-] soldiers around Gao Jie.

But he still did not give up, and continued to appease the soldiers.

After fleeing for nearly [-] miles, the horse was foaming at the mouth, apparently unable to hold on anymore.

"Get rid of the infantry!"

Gao Jie ordered immediately.

"Get rid of the armor!"

In the end, he only led more than a thousand people, copied a trail, and prepared to escape from this battlefield.

Unfortunately, on the way, he was stopped by a group of troops.

Under his desperate slashing and killing, he finally escaped with his life.

"Finally, survived!"

At this time, there were only a hundred people around him.

The clear stream made him overjoyed.

Just when he turned his head and was about to share the joy, suddenly, a knife was put on his neck.

"you?"

Gao Jie's expression changed drastically when he looked at the soldiers who treated him like brothers.

"Master Hou, I'm sorry, I want to survive!"

One lowered his head and choked up.

The other person was triumphant, raised the token treasured at his waist, and said:
"I'm sorry, Marquis Ying, I'm Jin Yiwei."
