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

Chapter 26 Take the initiative
"Let me answer it!"

Zhu Qi took two steps forward and came to the side of Luo Tong and the others, his face was full of awe.

"The so-called Jiangshan Sheji refers to the vast land of the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, it is also the tens of thousands of people of the Ming Dynasty. They are the more than [-] soldiers who followed me and fought bloody battles. Without them, where would the country be?"

"Meng Fuzi once said that the people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least. If I only want to save my own life, then I really don't care about the country and the country!"

"I have said more than once that since I am sitting in the position of commander-in-chief, I will be responsible to the soldiers to the end. Lord British, I will leave it to you to arrange the evacuation and leave me in the last batch. This is the case. , you don’t need to say any more!”

"Luo Qing's family, divide your people into several groups and lead the way. You go with the first group and return to Juyongguan to prepare for the arrival of the army."

Seeing the emperor's firm expression, Luo Tong was finally convinced.

So, he didn't insist any more, just bowed and said: "I obey the order!"

In fact, when the generals met to discuss the evacuation list, the meritorious generals headed by the British Duke did not mention the emperor.

At that time, Luo Tong thought that these people's brains were broken, how could there be any reason in the world for the emperor to cover their retreat?
Now, he finally understood.

At this moment, he feels lucky that he can assist a generation of virtuous kings.

All the generals returned to their tents one after another and began to prepare for the evacuation.

Before dawn, the first batch of evacuees from the Ming army consisted of more than [-] people, led by Luo Tong, heading towards Juyongguan.

The rest continued to work nervously, preparing for the attack of the Oirats.

Nowadays, those who burn kilns, loggers, and build catapults are becoming more and more skilled, and they have made great progress compared to a few days ago.

Sure enough, just after the hour of the hour, the gate of the Wala camp opened, and teams of cavalry came out in formation.

The difference from yesterday is that this time, the formation of the Oirats is more scattered, and they seem to be very afraid of the lime bombs of the Ming army.

However, they did not know that the Ming army had already deployed trebuchets at various locations in the camp. No matter how scattered they were, as long as they approached, lime bombs would fall from the sky, which can be called full coverage without dead ends.

The result is obvious, and the Oirats once again returned without success.

For three days in a row, every time he was repelled by lime bombs, he almost collapsed, so he simply wrote a letter of war and sent it over.

Zhu Qizhen took the gauntlet, opened it and looked at it twice, and couldn't help laughing.

The book of war scolded the Ming army for not talking about martial ethics, and even using anti-human weapons. After the scolding, it was a battle, which probably meant that you dare to walk out of the camp gate. Let's gather our troops and horses to fight hard decisive battle.

Zhu Qizhen laughed enough, and said to the emissary of Oara: "Do you still have the face to tell me first? When you Mongols fought in all directions, you created plagues every time you came to a city. What about these methods?"

Since the rise of Genghis Khan, the goal of the Mongols was no longer the grasslands, but the sea of ​​stars.

It was only Kublai Khan who went south to the Central Plains, and the other three major khanates expeditions to Central Asia, West Asia, and Europe. Moreover, the Mongols never talked about martial arts when they fought. They would smear the arrows with fresh feces and hit the enemy. Finally, the wound will be infected by bacteria, and the fatality rate was very high in ancient times with poor sanitation.

When besieging a city, the most commonly used method is to use a catapult to throw various corpses into the city, including war dead and various livestock, causing the Black Death to spread in the city. No matter how strong the city wall is, Eventually it will fall apart.

Facing Zhu Qizhen's questioning, the envoy of Oara seemed a little at a loss, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "The grand master said before, if His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty has the courage, he will go out to fight, if he is not, then hurry up Go back to the capital with your tail between your legs!"

"presumptuous!"

Fan Zhong widened his eyes and roared, stepped forward and grabbed the man by the collar and walked out.

"Wait!"

Zhu Qizhen waved his hands and said, "Don't make things difficult for him."

"Your Majesty!" Fan Zhong obviously couldn't swallow his breath, "This person is too rampant, if you don't give him some flair, you'll think I'm a vegetarian!"

"The two countries are fighting each other. If you don't kill him, every word he says represents Yexian. If you want to vent your anger, you have to find Yexian."

"But……"

"Okay, let people go!"

"According to the order!"

The Oala envoy patted the dust on his body, cupped his hands and said: "His Majesty the Ming Emperor has a broad mind, I admire you a little!"

After Zhu Qizhen laughed, he said sternly: "Go back and tell me first, I just fired three thousand catties of lime powder here, let him come and attack at will, I won't go anywhere, just wait here!"

The Oirat envoy snorted coldly, turned and left.

Fan Zhong was puzzled and said: "Your Majesty, just let him go?"

"Otherwise? Do you want to keep him for dinner?"

"No, that..."

Zhu Qizhen waved his hands and said, "I can't sit still anymore, the one who is anxious now is him, not us."

Fan Zhong thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, most of the Fifth Army Battalion has been evacuated, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to evacuate too!"

"Do you think Yexian will really watch me withdraw to the capital?"

Zhu Qizhen shook his head and said: "He knew that I would not go out to the camp for a decisive battle, so he deliberately said some sarcastic remarks, so that I would think that he had nothing to do, so he would leave at ease. I bet that as long as he walked out of the camp, he would chase after him immediately." come over!"

After hearing this, Fan Zhong scratched his head and said, "So, our army can only stick to it?"

"Stick to it?" Zhu Qizhen shook his head again and said, "Send the order to move the trebuchet out of the camp. This time, we will take the initiative to attack!"

On the west bank of the Guishui River, the Wala camp.

"Report to the grand master, there is movement in the Ming army."

He raised his eyelids first, and said happily, "What's happening?"

"They are moving the trebuchet out!"

"What?" also asked in confusion, "Where did it go?"

"Moving towards our army position!"

Also couldn't help shivering, and said angrily: "The little emperor from the south is bullying people too much!"

"Brother, give me another five thousand cavalry, this time I will definitely take the little emperor's head!"

Boyan wrapped a cloth strip around his injured left eye, with a grim expression on his face.

Also hesitate at this time, hit it, and they will throw lime bombs in your face.

Don't fight, people are going to come to your door now and throw lime bombs in your face.

In fact, Boyan was even more miserable. The past few nights he had been dreaming of being sprinkled with lime on his face.

Lime powder was sprinkled into the eyes, which caused a terrible pain. After washing with water, one eye was burned and blinded. The feeling in the dream was very real.

After waking up, I found... Hey, I'm really fucking blind in one eye!
Whoever can bear this kind of anger!
"Brother, let me go!"

After thinking about it, he finally nodded and said: "Well, remember, don't be reckless, and try to destroy the Ming army's trebuchet!"

Boyan took the order, ordered five thousand cavalry, and rushed out of the camp all the way.
