Chapter 28: Run if you have something to do
After dawn, on the banks of the Anping River.
The more than thirty corpses placed on the roadside made Abai look a little ugly. These are all elite armored soldiers with his white flag. Many of them are veterans. No matter which one they put them down, they can be used as if they are cold. Now they have become cold corpses.
"Third Prince,"
Cherge, who was both a cousin and a subordinate, called Abai softly and gave the other party a look.
A Baiwei said "um" and looked up and slowly glanced at the generals under his command. Finally, his eyes fell on his cousin Chaohaer, who was lowering his head.
"Xiao Shisan, victory or defeat is a common military service. You don't have to be discouraged. Look up and tell everyone about the situation." Abai's eyes were full of encouragement, and there was no intention of blame.
"Yes, the third prince!"
Chao Hal raised his head and blushed and briefly explained the situation of being attacked.
"How many Ming troops attacked you?" The question was that the Guarja family Du Anchao of Jialaezhen was originally from the Haixi Jurchens.
"About hundreds of people."
Chao Hal was not sure about how many people were due to the obstruction of vision, but there should be hundreds of people.
"Hundreds of people?"
Du Anchao frowned, but said nothing.
"The Third Prince, isn't it that the army has been camping like a turtle when it comes out of Yizhou, and even if it comes out, it will only take a few miles and then retreat after a fight. Why do you suddenly dare to send troops to ambush us? Is there something wrong with the Big Bell?" The person who spoke was Jialaezhen Sohun, who was also Niuhulu, but it has nothing to do with the Cherge brothers.
"Third Prince, have you sent someone to contact Big Bell?" Cherge said. The Ming army suddenly headed north to Changdian, and he was also worried about whether there was any change in Zhengbai Banner.
Abai was about to speak, but a big man beside him snorted: "What are you panic? Hundreds of Ming people have scared you like this? When did my Jurchen man be so greedy and afraid of death!"
The person who started to scold the white flag Zuomele Ezhendokana. According to the eight banner system, Gushan E is really called the banner owner, and the left and right Meile E is really called the deputy banner owner.
Dokana fought with Nurhaci in his early years and accumulated merits to Jialaezhen. After the four flags were divided into flags, Nurhaci specially sent it to his third son Abai as his deputy, which shows the degree of attention.
The second son of He Heli, one of the four ministers, Duojili, was the second son of He Heli, but he did not follow the army because of illness.
"The Third Prince, since the Great Beile has already sent our army to go south, our army will immediately arrive at the meeting place, and we cannot delay... In my opinion, the Ming army may deliberately send troops to attack our army to slow down our army's march speed. If the battle situation is wrong because of my inlaid white flag, we will find it difficult for us to explain to the Khan!" After Dokana said that, he glared at Du Anchao and Suohun, and he was deeply dissatisfied with the two who dissuaded the banner owner not to go south yesterday.
Du Anchao did not say anything when he saw this, and Suo Hun retorted: "Well, this is really a bad word. The Ming army is cunning. How could he know that they were not coming to our army?"
“So better!”
Dokana sneered, "The most difficult thing for Ming people to deal with is a strong city and a strong village. If we abandon this strength and go straight to our army, our army will fight with him in a dignified field. What's the point of fear?"
"this..."
Suo was stuck for a moment, but there was nothing to say, because as Dokana said, the Ming army abandoned the camp, so what else could he worry about?
"Third Prince?"
When Cherge saw Abai in a daze, he whispered a reminder.
Abai had never had any experience in leading the army alone before, so he was a little panicked in the face of emergencies. He hesitated whether to send someone to contact his brother Qianying first or continue to go south.
At this time, the explorer came to report urgently, saying that the Ming army infantry and cavalry brigade was found more than ten miles ahead. The Ming army attacked by dawn was this group of people.
"Who leads the army? But that eunuch Wei?"
Abai was quite nervous. His brother, Juying, told him more than once that the Wei eunuch of the Ming Dynasty was extremely cunning and asked him to be careful.
Shide, who was probing the horse, said: "Report to the banner master, the Ming army has posed a banner that is Xiao."
"Xiao?"
Abai and the generals were stunned. The generals of the Ming army in Liaodong all had information, but they had never heard of the general Xiao and the deputy general.
Cherge suddenly thought about something and hurriedly said, "Third Prince, is it that Xiao Bozhi?"
"Bozhi Shaw?"
Abai raised his eyebrows and pointed at Nashide: "So quickly, the person who led the troops in the Ming Dynasty is the dog thief without a registered account in Liaoyang!"
.........
"General, I am incompetent in studying literature and have not been captured. I would like to punish the general!"
As soon as he returned to the camp, Wei Xuewen apologized to Xiao Bozhi.
"What crime is there?"
Xiao Bozhi laughed and touched his beard, "But if Jiannu knew that we were meritorious, how could he be punished?"
"My general originally wanted to attack Jiannu in one fell swoop, but he was..."
Wei Xuewen is also a real person, and he has no idea that he is thirteenth uncle. He always feels that he has taken people to attack him. As a result, the sneak attack failed and a few soldiers were killed. No matter how he looks at it, they are guilty.
Xiao Bozhi looked at Kuroko, but he was a smart person. Not to mention that Wei Xuewen was innocent, he would not dare to treat Eunuch Wei's eldest nephew, even if he was guilty.
"Okay, get up. Jiannu will soon know where we are. It's better to be accused of apology and have enough food and drink to have a big fight with them! Damn it, I've been in Jianzhou for two or three years and I've long wanted to fight with these little braids!"
Xiao Bozhi was very passionate. He was a man fighting on the battlefield. When he joined Yang Hao in battle with North Korea with Wang Weidong, he killed the Japanese. How could he be afraid of the yellow-toothed braids in Jianzhou?
It was because of those officials who were not very quick to do so. If Xiao Bozhi could make the decision, he cut off the old boy Nurhaci's head and kicked him eighteen years ago.
The Ming army camped at this time on the banks of the Anping River, but it was simply arranged, not as deep as the central army camp.
When Yang Huan heard that Wei Xuewen came back, he hurried over to inquire about the situation. As a confidant brought from the capital, he was more concerned about the safety of Eunuch Wei's eldest nephew and grandson than anyone else.
Seeing that Wei Xuewen was fine, Yang Huan felt relieved and asked about the situation of Jiannu's white flag. He judged that once the white flag was found where the camp was, he would definitely come.
"We are hard to get this bait. How could he not be moved by Jiannu? If it were me, I would have to swallow it in one bite."
Yang Huan said while taking Wei Xuewen to see his deployment. The infantry brigade had already opened its momentum and controlled this section of the river.
"What weapon is this?"
Wei Xuewen saw dozens of soldiers unloading some spears from the truck in bundles. The spears were about ten feet long. Wei Xuewen took a pole and held it in his hand and felt it was quite weighty. He put it flat in his hand. As a result, he was very difficult and couldn't help but wonder whether such a heavy long sole was easy to use.
"This is a Qin spear, the Western soldiers are the best to use and can defeat the cavalry."
Yang Huan briefly said that he told Wei Xuewen that these spears were used to defend against cavalry attacks. Two thousand years ago, the Qin people used this weapon to restrain the enemy cavalry. Now military towns such as Yansui, Xuanda and other military towns are also used.
"Jiannu's white flag is really coming to us. This battle is extremely dangerous. No one can guarantee that we can successfully lure the enemy to Sanlipu. Well... If I die, please ask Brother Yang to tell my thirteenth uncle that learning literature has not embarrassed the old Wei family."
The sudden appearance of Wei Xuewen made Yang Huan stunned for a moment, and then he grinned: "You tell your thirteenth uncle, I don't dare."
Then he pointed to a raft by the river in the distance and whispered: "My father-in-law has an order. If you lose, you can take a raft across the river. This matter cannot be said to others."
After saying that, he shook his head and left.
Looking at Yang Huan's back and looking at the raft, Wei Xuewen was a little confused. Then he suddenly gritted his teeth and quickly walked to the riverside with his knife. He cut off the rope on the raft in a few strokes, and then pushed the raft into the river with one foot.
