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

Chapter 28

"In this night attack, at least half of the Ming army's trebuchets were lost. If our army took the opportunity to launch a general attack, they would definitely be unable to defend against it with their current strength!"

Boyan came to Yexian's tent with a big grin, full of joy, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.

"it is good!"

He also nodded in satisfaction, and then asked, "What day is it now?"

Boyan replied: "It's past the third watch!"

I also thought about it first, and said: "It's not too late, pass the order, cook at the fourth watch, attack at the fifth watch!"

The order was passed down one by one, all the soldiers began to prepare, and the whole camp was busy.

The 10 people were divided into ten teams, and each team was led by a ten-thousand man, and assigned a corresponding attack route.

Each [-]-man team was further divided into ten thousand-man teams, and each thousand commander also had his own marching route. In this way, almost the entire Ming army's position was covered.

As the sun slowly rose from the horizon, the gate of the Wala camp slowly opened, and groups of soldiers and horses began to walk out slowly.

However, the soldiers and horses in the front row immediately realized that the situation on the other side was not right. Originally, the Ming army's position was five miles away on the other side of the river, but why could they see the trebuchet when they looked up?

This distance... at most more than 200 steps!
Yexian and Boyan got the news, they were also surprised, they got on their horses and came to the river of Guishui.

Sure enough, it was clearly seen that the Ming army's trebuchets were arranged in a row, and they were displayed at a position of more than 200 steps on the east bank of the river.

The two looked at each other with three eyes, and thought in their hearts, the Ming army actually moved out all the remaining trebuchets overnight!
This thing is only good at defense, why did it come here?

Besides, your kiln for burning lime is five miles away. Could it be that... you have to go back to get it after throwing it away?
This is unreasonable!
"Brother, what is the Ming army doing?"

Yexian was also very puzzled, and said: "I don't see it either. It stands to reason that they should stick to it. Why would they take the initiative to attack? It's very unreasonable!"

Boyan scratched his head and said, "Could it be that the little emperor from the south has some tricks?"

"I can't think of it!" Ye Xian shook his head and said, "Their trebuchets were assembled temporarily, and the quality was extremely poor. Fortunately, there were many trees over there, and they made a new one when they were worn out. However, the trees here It is scarce, and there is no way to replenish the wood. Also, the kiln they fired lime is not here, one of the trebuchets is broken, one less, and one catty of lime powder is used less than one catty. No matter how you look at it, it is not wise to take the initiative Act of!"

Boyan couldn't help asking: "Then what should we do? Shall we fight?"

I also looked at the army ready to go, and my heart was always uneasy.

"Come on, bring that Wang Lin here!"

Boyan was puzzled and said, "Brother, what are you looking for with that guy?"

"Han people know Han people best. This Wang Lin has a lot of tricks in his mind. Last night's raid was his idea. Have you forgotten?"

Although Boyan was unwilling, he had to admit that he was really not as good as those dog-like southerners playing tricks.

Not long after, Wang Lin was brought to him, and he said with a smile on his face: "First of all, Grand Master, General Boyan, what orders do you have?"

Boyan pointed to the other side of the river and asked, "Let's talk about it, why did the Ming army turn from defense to offense? What tricks are there?"

Wang Lin stepped on his feet and looked around. When he saw the trebuchet on the other side of the river, he was also puzzled.

Boyan waited for a while, seeing that he didn't say anything, he said impatiently: "I'm asking you something, are you deaf?"

Wang Lin still looked puzzled, but murmured: "It's abnormal, it's abnormal..."

Boyan couldn't wait, and reached out to grab him, but was stopped first.

Wang Lin thought for a long time, finally raised his eyebrows, and said, "I see!"

"Know what? Say it quickly!"

"Teacher first, General Boyan!" Wang Lin first smiled respectfully, and then said, "There is a saying in the Han people that when things go wrong, there must be demons. From the point of view of villains, this is an empty city plan by the Ming army. !"

"Empty city plan?" Boyan was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

At this time, Luo Guanzhong's Romance of the Three Kingdoms was already very famous, especially for some history and military lovers, who were familiar with the classic passages in the book.

Boyan is an old man, so he naturally doesn't know the way of it, but Ye Xian likes Han people's things very much, including Luo Guanzhong's Three Kingdoms.

Therefore, when Wang Lin mentioned the three words "empty city plan", he understood it first.

"You mean, the Ming army is bluffing?"

"That's right, that must be the reason!" Wang Lin nodded and said, "The Ming army abandoned their defense and assumed an offensive posture, which is very unusual. I'm sure that last night's surprise attack caused them heavy losses. The battle preparations and supplies no longer support them to continue fighting, so they came to this place, Grand Master, this is the psychological tactics of the Ming army!"

Boyan finally understood, and said excitedly: "Brother, give me an order. Today, I will capture the little emperor alive and avenge my brother!"

First of all, although I was always uneasy in my heart, after thinking about it, I really couldn't find a more reasonable explanation for this abnormal behavior of the Ming army other than playing tricks.

Unless the Ming army doesn't plan well, take out all your wealth and fight yourself desperately.

Don't forget, the little emperor is still in the formation, do they dare?

Seeing that, he also fell into hesitation first, and Boyan suddenly became anxious.

Brother, can you stop thinking about it, every time you think about it to delay things!
If he had decisively sent troops back then and formed a pincer attack with Ah La, would the situation like this still be the case today?

"Brother, give the order!"

I also know in my heart that the Oirat Army urgently needs a victory to stabilize the morale of the army.

If the Ming army really used an empty strategy and escaped from under their noses again, it would really hurt morale too much.

"Command, attack!"

Boyan was overjoyed, and immediately galloped forward, shouting: "The whole army is attacking!"

The Wala army began to cross the river, and the front row was full of cavalry. The water level of the Guishui River today is much lower than in the past, and it has just passed the calves of the war horses.

After disembarking, the formation began to unfold, and people from all walks of life followed the established route to attack the Ming army's position at the same time.

Boyan took the lead and led the most elite cavalry to charge towards the Ming army's position.

However, just as they started to activate, they saw the Ming army's position move.

To be precise, the catapult maneuvered.

Whoosh!
puff!
A lime bomb fell from the sky and exploded beside Boyan. Familiar white dust flew all over the sky and quickly penetrated into the muzzles, noses and eyes of the cavalry and horses, and the formation began to be in chaos.

"Don't be afraid, the Ming army doesn't have many lime bombs, just keep going with me!"

Encouraged by Boyan, the Oirats regained their fighting spirit and continued to charge forward.

At the same time, lime bombs hit one after another, and the Oirats once again fell into the sky full of lime powder.

The position of the Ming army is only more than 200 steps away from the river bank, which is equivalent to the attack range of the lime bombs that the Oirats entered as soon as they landed.

With more and more lime bombs, the troops in front began to riot, and the troops behind were still crossing the river, and a large area was blocked suddenly.
