At midnight on November 29, 25 AD, at half past midnight on October 240, the tenth year of the Ming Dynasty, Master Zhang, who had feigned death for many days, suddenly appeared in the army and had been chased and killed by Jiannu for [-] years. The morale of the Ming army in Yuli was greatly boosted, and they immediately launched a counterattack against Jiannu's pursuers.At the same time, the Ming army's surprise attack force, composed of Tianjin Navy, Denglai Navy and Sichuan Baigan soldiers, also made a surprise attack on the sea before, landed on Tashan, and built a blocking position in the area of ​​Gaoqiao, the only way back to Jiannu, to cut off the Build the slave food road and the way back.At this point, Xiong Tingbi, Wang Zaijin and Gao's third Liaodong economic envoy of the Ming Dynasty carefully arranged, painstakingly managed, and designed the closed-door-beating-dog tactics with the Liaoxi Corridor as a trap, and finally achieved it in the hands of Young Master Zhang!The decisive battle in Liaodong opened a new page!
Of course, no matter how good or grand the tactical plan is, it needs to be executed by the army and every ordinary soldier in the army. Even if the army has no combat effectiveness, no matter how good the tactical plan is, it is just nonsense—as if it was proposed by Sun Chengzong, who also served as the Liaodong economic envoy. The defense plan of the Ningjin Bunker is the same. Without sufficient field combat capabilities, the soldiers of the Ming army distributed in dozens of bunkers, large and small, are simply a group of sheep raised in captivity, waiting to be defeated by Jiannu with superior forces. Even if they sent reinforcements and couldn't fight in the field, they would die in vain.In the same way, when the combat power is basically equal, the morale of the army and the fighting spirit of the soldiers become the key to the success or failure of the battlefield, and our Young Master Zhang, who was hated by Jiannu and won the hearts of the army, came back from the dead. How much does it affect the morale and fighting spirit of the army?

Time turned back a little bit, back to the Jiannu vanguard army at the moment before Young Master Zhang suddenly reappeared. Under the leadership of Du Du, the eldest grandson of Ha Chi, they had already pursued the rear army of the Ming army and approached Heizhuangwopu after crossing the Shahou. The slow moving speed of the luggage is well known. Basically, once the grain team is approached within five miles by the enemy Qingqi, the grain team is basically doomed to be robbed and burned.Faced with such a favorable situation, Hauge, who was already making up his mind to succeed Ren Jiannu Khan, was naturally ecstatic. Regardless of the darkness and snow, he raised his saber and yelled frantically: "Brothers, the barbarians' food, grass and supplies We're ahead, rush for me! Take the barbarian's food, grass and supplies, and reward each man with a barbarian woman when you go back!"

"Kill!" The slave cavalry who had fought for more than 200 miles roared one after another, forgetting the severe cold, fatigue and hunger and thirst, and charged again with their horses and whips. Five years ago, Jiannu's unparalleled aura when facing the Ming army before meeting Young Master Zhang.But at this moment, among the chaotic Ming army in the south, a hundred times more violent cheers suddenly sounded, "Long live! Long live the Ming Dynasty!" The snow piled up and fell.

"What happened?" Du Du keenly noticed the change in the morale of the Ming army, and subconsciously reined in the horse's head.Just at this time, a picture appeared that stunned all the Jiannu—like a sparkling torch, the commander-in-chief flag of the seven provinces of Ming Dynasty, which had disappeared for many days, suddenly reappeared in the Ming army, fluttering in the wind, and in Da Ming Under the banner, the Ming army, which had been in disarray just now, reorganized at an unimaginable speed, turned around and waited in formation. The slogans of "Long live the Ming Dynasty" and "Thousands of life for Zhang Shaobao" were repeated one after another, and many Ming troops The army soldiers were still crying bitterly in front of the battle, but their bodies stood upright in front of Jiannu's iron hooves, completely different from those who looked like bereaved dogs a few days ago.

"Zhang Haogu's banner?" Thanks to a man who can read and write, Hauge can also recognize a few Chinese characters, but it is also because of this that Hauge's exclamation is louder than anyone else, "Zhang Haogu Didn’t the little barbarian die? Why did the flag appear again?”

"Da Ming! Da Ming! Da Ming! Da Ming! Da Ming—!" Amidst the rhythmic cheers, dozens of generals of the Ming army walked out of the formation surrounded by one person. In the light of countless torches, the leader wore a gold medal representing officials above rank three. Xiansan Liang Zhongjing crown, wearing a vermilion rhinoceros robe, decorated with golden pheasant patches, thin body, eyes like bright stars, lips like vermilion, handsome facial features are not inferior to a stunning virgin, not for Jiannu monarchs, ministers, slaves, generals and soldiers Who is the famous and fearful Zhang Haogu and Young Master Zhang?
"Gou Jiannu, you've fallen for Lao Tzu's tricks again!" Young Master Zhang is really born with the wrong elements, and he showed up again after many days, and he burst into obscenities as soon as he opened his mouth. He laughed and said, "Go back and tell Huang Taiji, son, One time, I must kill all of you Jiannu, leaving no bones behind!"

"Zhang is such an ancient savage—!" Seeing the familiar ugly and ferocious face of Young Master Zhang, and hearing the familiar voice of Ye Xiaogui crying, Hao Ge and Du Du, two fearless generals who built slaves, urinated on the spot Pants, almost fell off the horse and fainted on the spot.And their subordinates don't have their strong nerves. Those who are more mentally strong are crying and howling ghosts, while those who are weaker will simply foam at the mouth, become incontinent, and there are countless people who fell from the horse on the spot. Way, the slaves were really tricked too badly by Young Master Zhang!Immediately afterwards, Young Master Zhang didn't even have time to issue a counterattack order. Tens of thousands of Jiannu cavalry screamed miserably, turned their horses' heads and ran away. , falling off the horse due to weakness in hands and feet, or crawling northward on all fours to escape for their lives, or being trampled into meat paste by the horseshoes of the defeated self-soldiers pouring in like a tide, countless people died.

"A bunch of waste, so useless?" Seeing that the Jiannu army was so frightened by him, Young Master Zhang couldn't help but cursed again, then waved his hand fiercely, and shouted: "Beat the drums, attack!"

"Kill!" Amidst the earth-shattering sound of war drums, the soldiers of the Ming army, who seemed to have suffered from collective impotence for eight days, rushed forward as if each of them had eaten ten or eight golden spear pills. , Killing the Jiannu cavalry who fled in embarrassment.However, the slave cavalry who have been beaten like chicken blood for the past eight days are like mangy dogs whose teeth have been pulled out. The man wanted to turn around to meet the enemy, but he just kept kicking the horse's belly and fleeing desperately.At this time, there was a sudden sound of killing in the darkness on the west side of the official road in front of Jiannu's defeated army. The Ming army rushed out with a cavalry led by Hei Yunlong and Ma Dengyun, and flanked Jiannu with the Ming army's chasing troops on three sides.The Jiannu generals and soldiers were at a loss, and the team collapsed instantly, scrambling to escape to the east of the road where there was no ambush. The Ming army chased and killed the defeated Jiannu soldiers all the way to the Bohai Sea.Just at this time, the Bohai sea water suddenly rose, and the sea roared and rushed ashore. All the defeated soldiers and horses of Jiannu were sucked into the sea. Hacking and killing, frantically harvesting the lives of Jiannu's defeated soldiers, countless Jiannu dead fell.As a result, after a bloody battle, only less than three thousand of the tens of thousands of Jiannu Qingqi escaped from the siege and fled to Ningyuan. Unfortunately, Huang Taiji's eldest son, Hauge, was swept into the sea by the tide, choking to death, leaving no bones left.

When Du Du's defeated soldiers fled back to Ningyuan City, Young Master Zhang had personally led the main force of the Ming army back to the South Bank of Ningyuan River in the southwest of Ningyuan to station, and openly played the banner of Zhang Haogu, governor of the seven provinces, to deter the crowd.The Jiannu army and the Shanzong rebel army inside and outside Ningyuan City have long been in chaos. The Jiannu generals and Shanzong generals have continued to go deep into the army to boost morale and stabilize the morale of the army, but it has not been effective. The Jiannu soldiers and Shanzong The soldiers of the rebel army were all panicked and panicked every day. They all said that the end was near, and we were afraid that we would not be able to return to Liaodong this time.However, Huang Taiji, Tabai, Babuhai, and Lai Mubu and other high-ranking slaves showed their composure, and kept shouting slogans in the army saying that Master Zhang was really dead. One panicked and feared, so when Du Du fled back to Ningyuan City, Huang Taiji didn't even have time to ask why his own son didn't escape with the army, so he grabbed Du Du by the collar and shouted: "Did you see clearly? He appeared in the city last night." On the battlefield, is Zhang Haogu the real little savage?"

"It's too far away, I can't see it clearly." Du Du wiped the blood on his face, and replied with a mournful face: "But looking at the appearance and hearing the voice, it should be Zhang Haogu, the little savage."

The last hope in Huang Taiji's heart was shattered, and he let go of Du Du's collar in despair. Du Du snatched the milk tea from the maid, first poured the tea juice into his mouth, and then took out the remaining milk tea like a starved ghost reincarnated. stuffed tea, raisins, walnuts and other things into his mouth, chewed and said vaguely: "Uncle Ba, this is a bit bad, Zhang Haogu's little mad dog is too scary! Originally, my nephew and Cousin Hauge They almost wiped out the barbarians' defeated soldiers, but as soon as the little mad dog's flag was shot out, those barbarian soldiers immediately fought back like crazy. Brother, you will be chopped into pieces in the blink of an eye! And those barbarian soldiers, even if they are shot by our arrows, if they are hit, none of them will run away, but they will chop and kill even more fiercely. My deputy, Mu Erhu, had already cut off the right hand of a barbarian cavalryman, but the barbarian cavalryman strangled Mu Erhu's waist with his left hand, biting Mu Erhu's knife hand with his teeth, and the other barbarians The cavalry rushed up and took the opportunity to hack Mu Erhu to death." After that, Du Du grabbed another bowl of milk tea and drank it, and then said: "So my nephew thinks it's best for us to withdraw our troops now. , take advantage of Zhang Haogu's little barbarian who has not blocked our retreat road, and quickly retreat to the Jinzhou area with open terrain, otherwise, we will be in danger."

"Master Beizi, you probably don't know yet." Fan Wencheng said cautiously: "Zhang Haogu, the little barbarian, has already sent a navy to the north from the sea, seized the Tashan area, and built a blocking position near Gaoqiao. Our retreat, It has actually been cut off by the barbarians."

"Crack!" While dumbstruck, the milk tea bowl in Du Du's hand fell to pieces, and then Du Du screamed in horror, "What? The barbarians have cut off our retreat? Then what about our battle? hit?"

No one could answer Du Du's question. After a long time, Huang Taiji slowly walked back to his original seat and sat down, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Mr. What should I do? Do you have any good suggestions?"

There was silence in the hall of the Jiannu Pingnan Puppet King's Mansion. Hundreds of Jiannu generals and Shanzong rebel generals were so quiet that even a needle dropped on the ground could be heard clearly. After a long time, Fan Wencheng said timidly: "Master, I think there are two urgent tasks now. One is to try to find out whether the little man Zhang Haogu is really dead. Is the little man Zhang Haogu who appeared on the battlefield of Heizhuang Wopu last night a real person? It is to try to break out of the siege, break out of the siege before the barbarian navy completes the blocking fortifications, and re-open our connection with the rear."

"How to do it specifically?" Huang Taiji asked.Fan Wencheng became silent again, and could no longer come up with ideas to solve his master's problems.At this time, Nurhachi's voice came from the back hall, coughing and said: "Divide the troops into two groups, and go to the south bank of the Ningyuan River to attack the barbarian camp. In order to boost morale, Zhang Haogu will definitely show up in public and take the opportunity to identify the real fight." The other way goes north to Tashan to test the status of the barbarian army on the northern line, restrain the barbarians from blocking the army, delay their fortification construction progress, and buy time for the main force to break through." While speaking, Nuerhachi was already supported by several slave maids Walked into the hall.

"Ama!" Huang Taiji quickly jumped up to salute, and the other Jiannu generals also knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "Taishang Khan." Nuerhachi waved his hand and ordered: "The situation is critical, don't wait too long Salute. Babuhai, Lai Mubu, you lead [-] cavalry north to Tashan, and the rest follow me to lead [-] troops to Ningyuan River."

"Decree!" Although Nuerhachi is in the Zen position, he still has a worrying presence. If he gives an order, the generals of Jiannu will immediately agree with clasped fists.The current Jiannu Great Khan Huang Taiji didn't dare to resist, but said in a low voice: "Ama, the child is incompetent, and he fell into Zhang Haogu's trick again. Please punish me, Ama."

"What's the use of talking nonsense now?" Nuerhachi coughed and said, "Zhang Haogu is really cunning. He even used a trick to trick us into the Liaoxi Corridor. You didn’t even notice it, let alone you? Your biggest mistake now is that after receiving the news last night, you didn’t immediately cut off the wrists of the strong men to let the auxiliary army go, and led the main elite Qingqi to the north to break through, and missed the best opportunity to break through.”

"My son also wanted to do this." Huang Taiji wiped his sweat and said, "But Ama also knows that we have [-] infantry and auxiliary troops, and there are [-] troops in Ningyuan City. No matter what happens, no one in the [-] army can escape the clutches of the little barbarian Zhang Haogu. Moreover, our soldiers and horses are extremely tired after chasing for days, and the barbarian navy is full of fresh troops. Not too big."

"You make sense." Nuerhachi coughed and said: "But in this way, our army will only have the choice of fighting the main force of the barbarians." After finishing speaking, Nuerhachi waved again Waving his hands, he calmly said, "Okay, I'll talk about the rest later, leave the city immediately to see if Zhang Haogu is really dead!"

………………

More than an hour later, the [-] Jiannu army marched to the Ningyuan River and confronted the main force of the Ming army on the opposite bank. They saw the Xinghuang Banner of the governor of the seven provinces of Young Master Zhang in the distance, and saw the Ming army waiting in full battle. Erhachi frowned, called Tong Yangxing to the front, and whispered a few words.Tong Yangxing agreed, and hurried out of the battle with a white flag, ran to the front of the Ming army and shouted loudly: "Please tell me that I, Dajin Taishang Khan, want to talk to Mr. Zhang Haogu before the battle. Let’s reminisce about the past, and I hope Master Zhang Haogu will allow it.”

The Ming army quickly got a reply. Song Xiance patted his horse out and smiled at Tong Yangxing, "Tong Yangxing, my master knows what you are thinking about Nuerhachi, and wants to see with his own eyes whether our master is really dead or not." ——I'm sorry, our boss doesn't want you to get what you want, so we refuse this request. Just guess and bet on whether our boss has really died for the country!"

"Damn it, the barbarian is getting more and more cunning!" Tong Yangxing, a veteran traitor, cursed inwardly, and ran back to the main battle helplessly to report the truth to Nuerhachi.Nuerhachi was furious when he heard the words, and immediately waved his hands and shouted: "Wakda, Balama, you two will lead an army of [-] to attack the barbarian army head-on. Zhang Haogu, the little savage, shows up!"

The order was conveyed, the war drums were beating, and the two generals Wakda and Barama, who had been killed by Master Zhang Lingchi a few days ago, led an army each to attack the Ming army's central army, and the Ming army quickly flashed out in front of the formation. The second squadron of wolf cavalry and Ji cavalry of the Slavery Army fought against the Jiannu cavalry with a three-line shooting tactic. Amidst the continuous gunshots, the Jiannu cavalry was shot and fell off their horses one after another.However, Wakda and Barama, who were carrying the death order, kept waving their knives and howling, urging the troops to move forward. However, in this way, Wakda and Barama were immediately exposed to the snipers of the Ming army. Bang, bang, bang, a few cold gunshots, Wakda and Barama were shot in the chest and face almost at the same time, fell off the horse together, died, and the Jiannu cavalry immediately disrupted.Here the flag of the Ming army flashed, and the slaughtering slave army scattered left and right. Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao's uncle and nephew brandished three-eyed firecrackers, and each led a Liaodong cavalry to charge out. , The Jiannu cavalry, who had lost their command, were defeated and defeated.Young Master Zhang, who was hiding behind, sneered loudly, "Old Jiannu is really dizzy, breaking through in front of me? Lighting the lamp in the latrine - courting death!... Ouch!"

The one who could make Young Master Zhang make such a scream is of course his vicious old man Xiong Tingbi. After punching his son-in-law on the head as if to vent his anger, Xiong Tingbi asked in a rough voice: "You son of a bitch, Jiannu and Laozi I was fooled by you together, and finally you caused the Liaoxi Corridor to be surrounded by us! But isn’t our military strength on the northern front a little too thin? There are only 10,000 troops, but Jiannu still has [-]+ troops. The slave is desperately heading north, whether the northern line can block it is probably a big problem, have you thought about this?"

"Yes, Master, the troops on the northern front are indeed a little weaker." Song Xiance also echoed: "Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the Tianjin Navy and the Denglai Navy is also a big problem. With Jiannu going all out to break through the situation, they It's hard to say whether it can stop Jiannu. So the students think that we should send another elite army capable of fighting tough battles to the northern front to strengthen the northern defense."

"Let's not divide the troops." Xiong Tingbi suggested: "I personally lead [-] Liaodong troops to the north to reinforce the northern battlefield. The rest of the main force will be handed over to you, and the north and south will attack to prevent a single slave from escaping from the Liaoxi Corridor."

"Father-in-law, it's not that my son-in-law doesn't believe you." Young Master Zhang said darkly, "It's just that the old Jiannu Nuerhachi and the young Jiannu Huang Taiji are not easy. Our northern line is relatively weak. In the evening, they will be able to detect that in order to prevent us from reinforcing the northern battlefield, they will definitely deploy a large number of blocking forces on the road. If your army goes north by land, father-in-law, it will definitely be ambushed and blocked by the Jiannu army on the road. Even if we can successfully reinforce the Tashan battlefield, there must be heavy casualties. Therefore, if we want to reinforce the northern line, there is only one way, and go north by sea."

"Reinforcement by sea? Isn't it too difficult?" Xiong Tingbi pondered: "Before, the Tianjin and Denglai navy were able to smoothly detour to the north to reinforce the battlefield. The main reason was that they were caught off guard by killing Jiannu. Now our navy has landed and fought There are very few manpower available to transport troops by boat, and Jiannu has a navy of the Ningyuan rebel army in his hands, and he will definitely prevent us from reinforcing the northern line by sea. If we intercept our troop transport ships at sea If we succeed, our casualties will not be so large.”

"Father-in-law, please don't worry, my son-in-law has already considered the countermeasures for these problems." Young Master Zhang smiled slightly and said, "When my son-in-law sent the navy to land on Tashan, I already let them go south with empty ships immediately after landing. Now I believe that their empty ship is already on its way back to Baimiaozi Wharf, Jiannu is not well prepared, and it must be too late to intercept our empty ship, and it is estimated that by this evening at the latest, our reinforcements will be able to board the ship and head north."

"The key is that on the way to transport troops to the north, if the Jiannu navy blocks it, it will be a big trouble." Song Xiance reminded.Young Master Zhang smiled and replied: "Master Song, you seem to have made the same mistake as me - you forgot that most of the slave slaughtering army were fishermen, and their fighting skills at sea are not much worse than on land. Also, at this time, it is time for the inside line we deployed in Ningyuan City to return from success."

"Students understand." Song Xiance suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "Students, arrange someone to contact them, so that they will go out to sea with the ship no matter what, and return from an uprising on the battlefield at sea." There was another burst of killing in the formation, and the remaining [-] Jiannu cavalry launched a general attack on Cao Wenzhao's uncle and nephew. Young Master Zhang hurriedly turned around and asked the generals: "Jiannu's general attack, now I need three generals , one led the army to stand against the front of Jiannu, and the other two led the army to outflank the two wings of Jiannu, who dares to stand against the front of Jianu?"

"The last general is willing to go!" Dozens of generals of the Ming army clasped their fists together and agreed, and the neat answers and loud voices almost made Xiong Tingbi explode with anger—why didn't these guys have such courage when I was leading the army?And Amin, who secretly sent someone to contact Huang Taiji last night, was even more active, jumped out and cupped his hands and shouted: "Master Zhang Haogu, the general is familiar with the situation of the Jiannu army, please let the general lead his troops to block the front of Jiannu , to create opportunities for the two wings to outflank!"

"Very good." Young Master Zhang smiled and said, "You can go, you can recruit enemies on the battlefield, and those who surrender will be incorporated into your army."

"The general will follow orders!" Amin agreed loudly, with a joyful look, as if he had not accepted the hardest and most tiring job in Young Master Zhang's tactics.Immediately afterwards, Amin's more than 4000 surrendered soldiers immediately rushed out like chicken blood. The three brothers Amin, Tulun and Nao Dai rushed to the front brandishing sabers, and Amin rushed in front of the two brothers himself. , and there was only one slogan in his mouth, "Catch old Jiannu alive and dedicate it to Mr. Zhang Haogu—!"
