Zhao Bing launched an investigation into the opponents in front of him when he was recapturing Jiangnan, and the Bureau of Affairs also made great efforts in it, especially the details of the main generals were investigated. Not only did he have a comprehensive understanding of their family background and military experience, but he even checked their property, business, wives, concubines and children. Therefore, he had already put in a lot of effort at the beginning of the battle and made targeted tactical arrangements.

Ten thousand households of Tulidu were stationed in Taizhou. According to information, he was considered a person with a "root". He followed Genghis Khan from his grandfather's generation to fight in the south and north, and was promoted to Thousand households due to his military achievements. His father was transferred to Kublai Khan's command, making great contributions to his capture of the Central Plains and the superiors, and was promoted to Ten thousand households. Tulidu also followed the Mongolian tradition to fight with his father and brothers since he was young, and participated in a series of battles attacking Huainan. After capturing Taizhou, Ren Daluhachi, he later inherited his father's title as Ten thousand households. After a large-scale adjustment of the military system, he led his army to farm in Taizhou.

Tuoliedu fought bravely and rarely suffered a defeat, but this developed a arrogant and domineering character and was not harmonious with his colleagues. He also stayed in Taizhou for many years, and regarded this place as his second hometown and devoted his thoughts to it. Taizhou is close to the south of the Yangtze River. It not only has fertile land and is suitable for farming, but also has the convenience of water transportation of the Yangtze River, various places, and business, and life is very comfortable.

Zhao Bing knew very well that the grudge of taking money and killing his parents. After he recovered Jiangnan, the good days of Tulidu were over. The two sides had constant conflicts. In addition to economic losses, military expenditure also increased. Especially at the beginning of the year, the Song army actually robbed the river, abducted thousands of people, and robbed nearly 20,000 war horses. The two sides had a great grudge, so he was working hard to harass Jiangnan.

Another Zhenzhou chief general Du Ge who rushed to Yangzhou to help Yangzhou is much inferior to Tuoliedu. He is not a second-generation official, and he has become a Wanhu through his own struggle. He has no roots and can only be careful, but an unsuspecting disaster still comes to him. He was turned upside down by the Song army crossing the river and was defeated by the Song army, and his soldiers were also broken. Now that he escaped alone, Habichi, a Qianhu in Guabu Town, still sued him.

However, Brother Du was also a 'reasonable'. He knew that he could not afford to offend the Southern Dynasty, so he gave up retreating along the river with the mentality of not being able to avoid it, so he refused to go back, and did not conflict with the Song army, and turned a blind eye to their "arrival". However, he was also surprised by surprise. The smuggling business of both sides was booming and his wallets were much bigger, so he became more and more negative about the Song battle. As for Yuxi Timur's plan to invade the south, he didn't catch a cold.

After learning that the two of them went to help Yangzhou, Zhao Bing also formulated corresponding tactics based on their different attitudes. For Brother Du, he adopted a "leniency" attitude and let him enter the city safely. He knew that there was such a "peace-loving" person in the city to defend the city, which was not a great threat to his side and would even play an unexpected role.

As for Tuo Liedu, who has not suffered a great loss, has another attitude. Therefore, Zhao Bing sent troops to intercept him, but did not fight his main force, and only attacked his team behind him. However, the intention of this arrangement was not to give him a warning, but to further anger him and let him fall into another trap to achieve the effect of suppressing his arrogance.

Sure enough, the facts were well analyzed by Zhao Bing. After entering the defense circle of the Song army, Du Ge Lai Yuan did not provoke at all, but hurried into the city through the gap between the two units of the Song army in an "escape". Tuo Liedu was the opposite. The large group of people marched in a swaggering state, which made people seem to be labeled "You beat me up" on their faces, in order to provoke the Song army to fight.

Zhao Bing's tactic of attacking his subordinates after the half-way crossing not only made Tuolie weaker and the Song army was still timid in the field, but he also angered him. Therefore, he decided that Tuolie would attack at night, and the target was of course the camp with the Great Song Dynasty flag floating. It would be best if he could capture the Southern Dynasty emperor alive. Taking a step back could also make the little emperor frightened and retreat, and at the same time he also let out his own anger. Moreover, he had just landed in. Although he would strictly prevent night attacks, due to the tight time, it was impossible to build and improve it, and there was still room for him to take advantage of it.

What Tu Lie didn't expect was that Zhao Bing had already arranged a big meal for him. He judged that the direction of Tu Lie Du's attack should be the north gate of the camp, because the west gate faced the canal, and the area was narrow and it was not easy to expand its formation. When entering from the east gate, on the one hand, it was far away from the camp, and the night attack was to move forward and retreat quickly. Once the task was completed, no one was so arrogant that he thought that only a thousand people could sweep a camp of tens of thousands of people. On the other hand, attacking from the east gate was easily attacked by the Song army attacking from the north gate, and the rear route was cut off.

Based on these judgments, Zhao Bing ordered the engineers to quietly deploy mine formations two hundred steps away from the north gate after the black army, reaching fifty steps in depth, burying more than a hundred mines, and secretly burying the explosion hands, so that they waited for most of the enemy vanguards to enter the thunder formation before igniting the fire. Their own personnel went in and out of the east and west gates. Sure enough, the Badu camp, who was fighting the vanguard, was hit, and the corpses were bombed all over the field before they even approached the camp gate...

"The Mongol Yuan suffered such losses, and he still fought to the death without retreating. It was so crazy!" Seeing the enemy attacking at night, they still ran wildly and rushed towards the camp, Wang Yinglin said in surprise.

"Haha, when the two armies face each other, once the momentum is achieved, the next wave will push the previous wave and you will be unable to help yourself." Zhao Bing couldn't help laughing when he heard what he said. This is just as the saying goes, an expert looks at the tricks and an outsider watches the excitement. Wang Yinglin is obviously an outsider.

He didn't know that the army would stop just by hearing it, especially the cavalry. It is basically impossible to stop after launching a charge. If you brake suddenly, the war horse that is still charging behind will rear-end. Not only will it hit you, but you will be trampled by the horse's hooves behind you, and you will not even be able to keep the entire body. Besides, the horse is not brave enough, and now it is frightened by the explosion, so it is even more difficult to control and can only move forward blindly.

In addition, the battle has begun, and the main general will not stop attacking because of setbacks. Instead, he will take this opportunity to supervise the army forward in order to use the sacrifice of the vanguard to break through obstacles and open the path. Tuolie Du used the Badu camp as the vanguard and used them as cannon fodder, and did not care about these casualties at all. Therefore, the army then charged along the minefield that was opened.

"Release, let go, let go..." With the command of the artillery commander, the order was transmitted to the various artillery positions one by one. At this time, the rapid-fire guns arranged in frontier fortifications and the forward-buckle guns arranged in the back opened fire. The flowering bullets exploded in the enemy group, and each shell could take away several lives and cause a rain of blood; the shotguns were splashed with nearly a hundred small projectiles on the fan, and all the people in the range fell down in batches as if they were swept by a broom; and the live ammunition shots passed like a small alley arched by a wild boar, and all those hit were shattered, and even if they were lost, they could often catch a few unlucky guys.

"Hmph, how can the flesh and blood body be able to fight against the power of artillery fire?" Seeing the enemy cavalry struggling in the artillery fire, Wang Yinglin, who was still worried just now, became brave and even stood up on the grain tank, snorted coldly in the face of the battlefield.

"Governor Wang, don't be excited, be careful to fall down!" Zhao Bing hurriedly supported him and said with a smile. He felt a little funny about his joys and sorrows change quickly, but he also understood his mood. They did not have the opportunity to go to the battlefield on weekdays, and they had never seen the fierce confrontation between the two armies, and they felt novel and excited. It was dark now and far away from the battlefield, so they could not see the tragic situation of those people who were killed by artillery fire. If they really saw it clearly, they would be considered a hero if they didn't vomit half to death.

"The enemy cavalry rushed to the front of the camp!" Wang Yinglin shook away the support of the little emperor and said excitedly and nervously.

"..." Zhao Bing smiled bitterly and shook his head. This kind of scene was already common to him, and the ending of the battle was expected, so he couldn't be interested. He insisted on watching the battle and cared more about his generals' organization and coordination ability to fight, and the troops' reaction speed and response ability after being attacked, rather than watching the fun.

At that moment, the enemy cavalry broke through the blockade of mine formations and artillery. The enemy cavalry threw out the lock sleeve to hook the horse and the horns in front of the camp, clearing the attack path for the rear army, and throwing the firewood she carried into the trench to try to fill out a way. However, Zhao Bing thought that it was already at the end of his strength and could not do anything. The key to the night attack was to raid. In order to ensure the suddenness and mobility of the attack, the size of the troops sent would not be too large. Once the opponent was found to be prepared and the assault was blocked, the experienced commander would consider retreating.

At this moment, there were not many people rushing to the front of the camp, and the subsequent troops were blocked by artillery fire, so the attack would inevitably be weak and it would be difficult to achieve great results. At this time, the soldiers guarding the camp also began to act. They relied on fortifications or walls to shoot at the approaching enemies with muskets. Under the dense rain of bullets, the enemy troops were shot and fell down, or fled around.

‘Wuwu…’ Sure enough, the attack was seriously blocked, and the enemy generals also realized that the opponent was prepared for it, and there was still a possibility of being surrounded and annihilated if they continued to fight. So they sounded the horn of retreat, and the attacking enemy quickly turned their horses and retreated, and soon led them into the darkness.

"Your Majesty, why don't you pursue the victory?" The battle lasted for only half an hour, and the enemy who failed to attack at night retreated. Wang Yinglin felt that it was too unsatisfied, but his side did not send troops out of the camp to pursue him. He said anxiously.

"Enemy troops often have ambushing on the way back to block the pursuing opponent. They also intend to defraud, lead the opponent to pursue the ambush, or raid again while the opponent is out of the camp. Therefore, it is not advisable to pursue the enemy at this time, so as not to cause unnecessary losses or lose the camp." Zhao Bing explained while supporting the curious old man to put the grain stockpile.
