Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 68 Blast and Dash!

The Mongolian army occupied Qingyuan Town ahead of time, so they would definitely set up fortifications, and maybe even set up an ambush, waiting for the Red Scarf Army to rush in.

"Brother, Qingyuan Town can't be bypassed. It seems that Aluhui is not easy to deal with." Zhu Han said.

They marched all the way, which was relatively fast. They could advance more than 30 miles a day, but they were still more than a day behind the Meng Yuan army.

Tens of thousands of troops are marching, and the length of the team alone can be more than ten miles. Coupled with the need to maintain the marching formation and camp overnight in advance, the daily marching speed of more than 30 miles is already the limit of the Red Turban Army.

"It is indeed difficult to deal with, but we are not intimidated, it is not just a Tartar province Zhongcheng, we will meet him in person!" Zhu Yuanzhang said domineeringly.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang is leading an army of more than 3 people, which stretches for more than ten miles. It can be said that he is in a state of swallowing mountains and rivers with arrogance.

"Xu Da!" Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.

"Marshal, the last general is here!" Xu Da responded quickly.

Zhu Yuanzhang put on his helmet and gave instructions to Xu Da.

"Array the two hundred brave cavalry, and come with us to find out the reality of this group of Tartars!"

Zhu Han saw that his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang was planning to investigate the enemy himself.

This is too dangerous!

The rebel army only had two hundred cavalrymen. Although they were considered brave and good at fighting, there were Mongols on the opposite side of the Tartars. Not only were there more cavalrymen, but their combat effectiveness would also be stronger.

In case of being bitten by a tartar, it would be very dangerous.

Thinking of this, Zhu Han immediately tried to persuade him.

"Brother, you have to calm down, this is too dangerous!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care, he smiled at his younger brother Zhu Han, patted his shoulder and said.

"What are you afraid of? Our lives are at stake. The Tatars can't do anything to me. This time we are fighting against the generals of the Tartars. We must know ourselves and the enemy!"

"It would be too dangerous if he was hunted down by the Tartars." Zhu Han said hastily.

During the march yesterday, Zhu Han just told his older brother Zhu Yuanzhang that the Qin king Li Shimin captured the two kings in the battle of Hulaoguan, and today he is going to personally investigate the military situation, which is simply too scary.

"Haha, look at our cavalry, they are all tall horses, they can run faster than the wind, those cavalry from the Tartars are no match for us!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

Zhu Han glanced to the side of the team, and he also felt that this was the case.

The horses mounted by the Xiao cavalry of the rebel army were all Yili horses obtained by Zhu Han.

Yili horses have both speed and endurance, far better than the mounts of Mongolian and Yuan cavalry.

"Okay, don't worry, let's go investigate the military situation, you stay and watch the camp!"

Zhu Yuanzhang gave Zhu Han all the commander's seal and Lingjian as he said.

"Brother, you must be careful!"

Zhu Han was no longer a mother-in-law, and took over the handsome seal and Ling Jian and said.

Brother Dahu, Zhu Han, as the younger brother of the Marshal, naturally has no problem in temporarily supervising the camp.

After his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang left with two hundred cavalrymen, Zhu Han immediately ordered the whole army to strengthen their security and be ready to obey orders at any time.

Throughout the night, the Red Scarf Army was heavily guarded, but there was no sign of hostility.

It was not until noon the next day that Zhu Yuanzhang finally led the Xiao cavalry back.

After Zhu Han got the notification, he immediately came to the gate of the camp. As soon as they saw their elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang, they found that the victory was fruitful.

There were two hundred cavalrymen, each with one or two Tartar heads hanging under their saddles.

"Haha, these Tartars are nothing more than that. We killed more than 300 people without even breaking a hair!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.

Xu Da, who was behind him, also had an excited expression on his face, and followed suit.

"That's right. I thought these Tartar cavalry were powerful, but they were all defeated in one charge, except for cavalry and archery."

When Zhu Han heard this, he was immediately surprised.

Recently, the brave cavalry of the rebel army have been adopting standardized cavalry training according to Zhu Han's suggestion, paying more attention to group charge coordination and avoiding the shortcomings of individual bravery.

Unexpectedly, the results were so rich.

"Brother, those Tartars didn't come after them, did they?" Zhu Han asked hastily.

Zhu Yuanzhang curled his lips in disdain, "They dare not! They sent more than 500 people to hunt them down, and we killed most of them. Who would dare to chase after them?"

The rebel cavalry not only had better training and better equipment, but also had the advantage of size and speed on the Ili horses they rode. The defeated Tartar cavalry couldn't run even if they wanted to.

After some fighting, Zhu Yuanzhang led his army to an easy victory, and the remaining Tartar cavalry dispersed in a rush, never daring to pursue them again.

"We have also found out that there are more than 2 Tatar soldiers led by Aluhui, and there are more than 2 small and strong Han troops. They have enough food and grass, and they have already begun to dig ditches in Qingyuan Town. The wall, under such circumstances, cannot be delayed for too long, and must be resolved quickly." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

When Zhu Han heard this, he immediately nodded in agreement.

The rebel army attacked Chuzhou for the population and food there, and naturally the sooner the better.

"Brother, let's move on!" Zhu Han said.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and then gave an order.

"Send the order, the whole army will move out, the enemy is in Qingyuan Town!"

"The whole army is on the move, the enemy is in Qingyuan Town!"

. . .

Qingyuan Town.

Zhongcheng Alu Hui was furious.

"Useless things, there are only 200 thieves, but let them run away!"

"Not only ran away, but also beheaded more than 300 people of me, you should all be damned!"

In front of Aluhui, there were several trembling generals kneeling.

After venting his anger, Alu Hui did not punish them severely.

"Now that the war is imminent, you will be guilty and meritorious, or you will be punished severely!"

The several generals who had confessed their crimes hurriedly kowtowed gratefully.

At this time, a general next to him came up and said to Alu Hui.

"Aha, the rebels are arrogant, we can't bear this bad breath, why don't we march forward to meet them immediately!"

This general is Aluhui's younger brother Hardy, who is also the deputy commander of the army.

"No, these rebels just want to provoke us on purpose and let us leave the fortress of Qingyuan Town. In this case, we will not leave, so we will stick here so firmly. If they have the guts, then come to attack, anyway I have already arranged ambushes, and when they attack our army, the ambushes on both sides will come out."

Alu Hui said with a contemptuous smile, as if he had seen the scene of Zhu Yuanzhang being captured and killed.

"At that time, our army will send troops in pursuit, conquering Dingyuan City all the way, and annihilating their entire army!"

According to Aluhui's calculations, he used some of the Mongolian Yuan army and the entire Ding Zhuang Han army as the central army, and used obstacles to block the Red Turban Army in Qingyuan Town. At the right time, rush to the back of the Red Turban Army and give them a fatal blow.

"Hardy, the task after attacking the side of the bandit army is entrusted to you. Don't be relentless when the time comes, just give me a hard attack!" Aluhui said.
