Chapter 73 Surrounding the Rebel Army!

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Hu Yiba and others who were throwing the 'rum can', and knew that he must be the means of support sent by his younger brother Zhu Han.

He was overjoyed and ordered loudly.

"Go forward, kill the Tartars!"

With the sound of war drums and horns, the rebel army began to move forward with firm steps.

Driven by swords and spears, the chaotic Mongolian and Yuan soldiers soon couldn't hold on.

"Back!"

"Run, thieves have demon fire!"

"Fire of Immortality!"

These Mongolian and Semu armored soldiers fled back one after another, and those companions who were burning with flames were all abandoned.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

Cheers of victory erupted from the rebel army.

The Tartar army was still staring at it, and Zhu Yuanzhang did not pursue it desperately. He just killed the wounded Tartar soldiers on the battlefield and then returned to regroup.

Immediately afterwards, the sword and shield skirmishers of the rebel army jumped out of the formation, chopped off the heads of those Tartar soldiers, and stripped off their armor and weapons.

In the fierce battle just now, both sides suffered casualties, basically more than 1000 people.

However, as the retreating side of the Mengyuan soldiers, most of the wounded soldiers could not be healed, and all of them were beheaded by the rebels.

The lightly or seriously wounded soldiers in the rebel army could be dragged back to the formation for treatment. As long as they were not fatally injured, they could all survive under the blessing of Zhu Han's antibiotics.

The sudden change of the battle situation made Aluhui, who was still preparing to line up, very angry.

At this time, Ahema led the former army and retreated helplessly.

As soon as he saw Alu Hui, he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"Zhongcheng, the last general is incompetent, the thief has used the demon fire, so he can no longer fight!" Ahema said.

Aluhui had already seen the battle just now.

Originally, the red scarf thieves were powerless, but suddenly a lot of strong flames burst out and defeated the Mongolian Yuan army.

"Gather your soldiers and horses!"

Alu Hui said calmly.

In this case, even if the generals such as Ahema were punished, it would be useless.

The morale of the Red Turban Army has been restored. I don't know how many of those terrible flame weapons are there. If they continue to attack, will they fall on themselves again.

Aluhui was very worried about these things, not to mention that it was not early, and he could no longer continue to fight.

He simply gathered the army and could not hold out with the help of trenches and walls.

In any case, as long as the Yuan army is nailed to Qingyuan Town, the Red Scarf Army will have no chance of advancing.

Unless they come to take the initiative to attack.

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about the plans of the Yuan army.

After seeing Zhu Han, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but said.

"Brother, take out all those 'rum jars' just now, the Tartars are going to be a coward, let's go and burn them!"

When Zhu Han heard this, he immediately shook his head.

"Brother, those liqueur cans are very expensive, and there are very few raw materials. Just throwing them all together, they have almost been consumed, and there is not much left to use."

Just now Hu Yiba led the engineering team to throw the 'incendiary bomb', Zhu Han felt very distressed watching it.

Hu Yiba and the others didn't know that Chai Migui was not in charge of the family, and those incendiary bombs seemed to be free of money, and they desperately threw them on Yuan Jun's head.

Although the results were brilliant, they were consumed so quickly that there was hardly much left.

Just now Hu Yiba rushed back to celebrate his victory, but Zhu Han didn't give him any good looks.

"What? Is this useless?" The old brother Zhu Yuanzhang was very surprised when he heard it.

For these incendiary bombs, Zhu Han spent a battalion's worth of military pay.

Just such a short time of kung fu, and it was all used up!

"Yeah, there aren't that many anymore, and the Yuan army's fortifications are not easy, so let's prepare other methods!" Zhu Han said.

The elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and ordered the whole army to retreat and prepare to set up camp.

As for how to conquer Qingyuan Town, we can only wait until tomorrow.

The rebel army and the Yuan army began to confront each other.

The rebels felled trees and began to make equipment for crossing ditches and climbing walls, while the Yuan army sent cavalry to harass them.

From time to time, small-scale battles occurred between the two sides, causing mutual casualties.

The rebel army's offensive preparations were carried out in an orderly manner.

After some probing, Aluhui has basically concluded that the Red Turban Army's "demon fire" is not much in number.

Just at this time, news came from behind Chuzhou that the remnants of the rebel army in Chuzhou heard the attack of the Red Scarf Army, and they revived again, and they were about to march into Chuzhou.

Therefore, Alu Hui has no time to spend, he must seize the time to defeat the Red Scarf Army, and then return to Chuzhou to suppress the rebellion.

"Come on!"

"Send an order to Hardy, Ahema and others to get them ready, Ben Zhongcheng will attack with the whole army tomorrow!"

Alu Hui's decisive attack surprised Zhu Han, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others.

The next morning.

The Yuan army made preparations for pulling out the camp early.

Tens of thousands of troops lined up in front of the camp, and drums sounded in the mountains and forests on both sides.

Looking at all this, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately sensed the Mongols' intentions.

"These Tartars, are you going to launch a general attack?"

Zhu Han nodded, and he also agreed with his brother's judgment very much.

"It seems that the Yuan army is going to work hard and doesn't plan to spend it."

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression froze. The battle the day before yesterday gave him a higher estimate of the Yuan army's combat power.

If the Yuan army tried their best this time, the Yi army would not dare to say that they would surely win.

"We have to supervise the battle in person, and the rear army will be handed over to you!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Han nodded very seriously, and continued.

"Brother, don't worry, I will support you at critical moments!"

The Yuan army in the mountains on both sides did not intend to hide, and began to appear on the edge of the mountains.

They wanted to surround the rebel army from three sides, in order to create imposing coercion.

Naturally, the rebel army led by Zhu Yuanzhang would not be afraid of such methods.

"Kill the barbarians, conquer Chuzhou!"

Zhu Yuanzhang led his own soldiers and began to inspect the whole army.

Wherever he went, there were thunderous shouts immediately.

The soldiers of the rebel army have also understood that today's battle is a matter of great importance.

The more than 2 yuan army in Chuzhou was the last military force of the Mongolian and Yuan courts in Jiangbei.

As long as they are defeated, the rebel army can march into Chuzhou, have enough food, grass and money, and no longer have to worry about starvation and famine.

As for the Yuan army on the opposite side, they also knew that the red scarf army in front of them was very famous. They first conquered Haozhou and then seized Dingyuan. They could be called the most powerful anti-thief army in Huainan and Jiangbei.

If this red scarf bandit is defeated, the Yuan army can take the front line of Dingyuan Haozhou directly, and the imperial court's reward will definitely be very generous.

Both sides are holding the mentality of winning, and launched the pre-war deployment intensively.

The stragglers and archers of the rebel army rushed out of the formation one by one, using bows and crossbows to drive away the Mongolian cavalry who were harassing around.

These light cavalry cruised back and forth around the rebel army, and from time to time they would rush up and shoot arrows to harass them.
