At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 2 This wave can be fought

Fan Zhong stared at this scene dumbfounded, and after a while, he said: "Your Majesty, the army has already..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Qizhen waved his hand: "Bring the map!"

Fan Zhong regained his energy immediately, quickly took out a map, and opened it in front of Zhu Qizhen.

The place where we are now trapped is the famous civil castle in history, with cliffs to the north, Yongding River fifteen miles to the south, the main force of the Yexian Ministry following all the way to the west, and the Guishui River to the east. .

The more Zhu Qizhen looked at it, the more he frowned, and finally twisted it into a Sichuan character.

"Which evil pen made this marching route?"

Fan Zhong opened his mouth wide, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

Because that evil pen...is you!
Zhu Qizhen pointed to a location on the map and asked, "Huailai City is only twenty miles away, why don't you enter the city?"

Fan Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, when the army first arrived a few days ago, they were still able to enter the city, but now the Oala army is following them, and Huailai's garrison, Kang Neng, has abandoned the city and fled. Huailai City has fallen!"

"I call him his ancestor!" Zhu Qizhen yelled angrily, "When my class teacher returns to the court, he will definitely kill his nine clans!"

Hearing the emperor's swearing, Fan Zhong felt surprisingly cordial, as if the person in front of him was no longer the aloof emperor, but a brother who lived and died with the soldiers on the battlefield.

Although I don't know why this feeling suddenly appeared, but...it's very cool.

"The emperor is right, go back and punish his mother's nine clans!"

Zhu Qizhen stared at the map closely, and said casually: "It's not the nine clans that punished his mother, but the nine clans that punished him. Human life is a matter of heaven, so you can't get it wrong!"

Fan Zhong nodded repeatedly, and said, "Yes, yes, punish his nine clans!"

After reading the map, Zhu Qizhen asked again: "How many soldiers and horses do we have left?"

Fan Zhong replied: "It's less than [-]!"

Zhu Qizhen took a breath and asked again: "How many people are there in Wala?"

"There are more than 12 main troops of Yexian in the rear, and more than [-] Ala tribes in the front."

Hearing this number, Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but look sad, and said to himself: "15 to [-], the gap is a bit big, this battle is not easy to fight!"

Fan Zhong saw that the emperor was seriously studying the map, so he didn't dare to disturb him.

Zhu Qizhen raised his head suddenly and asked, "Are the troops of the Ara tribe stationed on the east bank or the west bank of the Guishui River?"

"The west bank is only ten miles away from our army's garrison!"

"Ten miles?" Zhu Qizhen lowered his head again, gestured on the map, and muttered, "If cavalry is sent to attack, this distance..."

"Your Majesty!" Fan Zhong gave even worse news, "After the two battles of Jiming Mountain and Yaoerling, the [-] battalion has been completely lost, and there are no cavalry in our army!"

Before the Ming army was trapped in the Tumu Fortress, it had just experienced two major wars, to be precise, it experienced two major defeats.

On August [-]th, the Ming army arrived at Jiming Mountain to the east of Xuanfu, and Xuanfu reported that the Wala army was attacking.

If it is an experienced coach, he will immediately make a judgment and rush into Juyongguan to escape the danger.

However, Wang Zhen ordered to camp on the spot on the grounds that his more than a thousand baggage vehicles had not arrived, and sent Wu Kezhong, Marquis of Gongshun, and Wu Keqin, the governor, to lead the army to fight.

This battle was very tragic. The [-] cavalry of the Ming army were wiped out, and the Wu brothers died heroically.

After the news of the defeat on the front line came, Zhu Qizhen still didn't realize the danger. Under Wang Zhen's instigation, he tried to regain his position, so he sent Cheng Guogong Zhu Yong and Yongshun Bo Xueshou to lead 5000 people to meet him head-on. As a result, the army strayed into the trap set by the enemy in Yaoerling. For a while, ambushes broke out everywhere, and Zhu and Xue both died in battle.

After these two battles, the main force of the cavalry of the Ming army was completely lost, completely losing the ability to maneuver.

What's more serious is that the Oirat army has completed the encirclement, there are no water springs near the Tumu Fort, and the main roads everywhere have also been strangled, and the Ming army has dragged itself into a dead end.

Zhu Qizhen was so angry that he slapped the table straight, and said angrily: "More than half of the 20 people have been lost, and the rest are all infantry. What a fart!"

Fan Zhong is very helpless, who are you asking, isn't it your order?
"Where is Shenji Camp?" Zhu Qizhen suddenly thought of a question, "Is Shenji Camp still there?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Shenji Battalion has been following the Chinese army, and there is no battle damage for the time being."

"Then there are more fights!"

Zhu Qizhen became excited again. The Mongols are most afraid of firearms. As long as the Shenji Battalion is still there, they will have the capital to fight.

At this time, Wang Zhen came back, with a flattering smile on his face, he said cautiously: "Your Majesty, all the generals have arrived at the tent, please see you."

Zhu Qizhen said without looking back: "Xuan!"

"Yes!"

One side of Wang Zhen's face was swollen, and his expression was a little lonely. He didn't know why the emperor, who was obedient to him, suddenly turned his face and refused to recognize anyone.

As the saying goes, companionship with a king is like companionship with a tiger, this is about to change!

But, what did I do wrong...

All the generals entered the tent of the Chinese army one by one, knelt down and saluted.

"Your family is free!" Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, "Come here, let's discuss the next battle plan!"

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and they all had the same question in their hearts, what happened to the emperor today, the style of painting is wrong!
Zhu Qizhen waited for a while, and seeing everyone standing still, he said, "What are you still doing? Come here!"

"Yes, I will obey the order!"

Only then did everyone stand over cautiously, but they didn't dare to get too close.

"Who is that..." Zhu Qizhen looked at the crowd and pointed randomly, "Zhang Qing's family, Kuang Qing's family, you two are the most important officials, tell me your views!"

British Duke Zhang Fu and Minister of War Kuang Ye glanced at each other, and they both saw the same problem in each other's eyes. The emperor has always made decisions without authorization, or let Wang Zhen command randomly. When did he listen to everyone's opinions?
Seeing the two in a daze, Fan Zhong couldn't help reminding: "My lords, the emperor is asking you something!"

"Oh, oh!" Zhang Fu hurriedly took a step forward and said, "Qizou Emperor, the biggest problem right now is the water source. The soldiers dug wells on the spot and searched for more than a dozen wells. They dug more than two feet deep, but they still couldn't see the wells. Water, if this goes on, mutiny may occur!"

At this time, Kuang Ye said: "Fifteen miles to the south is the Yongding River, and now Ye Xian's main force has retreated, why not us..."

"No, I can't go!" Zhu Qizhen stared at the map and said, "Our army is now backed by mountains and rivers, and it is still dangerous to rely on. If we move south, it will be a wilderness. When the enemy forces rush up, Our army is under the enemy's front and back, and we can't look at each other from head to tail!"

Zhang Fu's eyes were slightly focused, carefully observing Zhu Qizhen's face, he felt that Zhu Qizhen today seemed to be very different from usual.

Leaving a gap in the south was Yexian's trap. Knowing that the Ming army could not bear the hunger and thirst, he pretended to retreat, deliberately giving way to the river south of the Tumu Fort, and secretly set up an ambush, waiting for the Ming army to approach the Yongding River. Transfer, when there is no danger to defend, you can launch a general attack.

The so-called authorities are obsessed with onlookers. Due to the serious lack of water in the troops, the Ming army is also arguing endlessly. There are not a few generals who proposed to move south. I didn't expect the emperor to see the problem at a glance, which is a bit surprising.

However, even if you understand this point, there is still no way to solve the water source.

"I can't wait any longer!" Zhu Qizhen slapped the table heavily, "Here's an order to assemble the army and march eastward. I'm going to eat the 3 horses of Ashibu!"
