Chapter 479 The Battle of Yingzhou (Part 2)
The little Tatar prince was frightened by Wang Xun's initiative to fight. He couldn't guess whether it was because the Ming army was too powerful or because the Ming army had set up a trap? He didn't know whether to attack or defend for a while.
However, Wang Xun on the opposite side knew his own situation, and he was also an old military general. When he saw the grassland people on the opposite side hesitant, he was very happy and immediately ordered the army to launch a charge, and he rushed and attacked regardless of casualties.
.
As a result, the little Tatar prince was shocked again when he saw the Ming army rushing over so bravely. He thought that the Ming army was really several times stronger than before, so he had the courage to take the initiative, which made the little Tatar prince dare not.
Fighting hard with the Ming army was just to let the army arrange a defensive formation and fight an offensive and defensive battle with the Ming army in a normal manner. However, they used to attack the Ming army in the past, but this time they were completely reversed.
Anyone with some common sense of military knowledge knows that cavalry is good at attacking but not defending. Now the little Tatar prince abandons his strengths and lets the soldiers defend, so he naturally suffers a little loss. In addition, the Ming army carried a lot of firearms.
The volley of artillery and muskets caused many casualties to the grassland cavalry, but the overall quality of the Ming army was still somewhat different from that of the grassland cavalry. Therefore, after the grassland cavalry adapted to the Ming Dynasty's tactics, they quickly regained the battle.
At the disadvantage, both sides attacked and defended in Yingzhou City, and they fought very well. In the end, they fought for a whole day, and no one could do anything to anyone.
At the beginning, the little Tatar prince was shocked by the fierce attacks and sharp firearms of the Ming army, but after a whole day of fighting, the little Tatar prince suddenly realized that he had been fooled, the one in front of him
The Ming army is not an elite force in the Ming Dynasty. Although its combat effectiveness is stronger than before, it relies on the benefits of firearms, and the number of people is smaller than that of one of his own. If he ordered the cavalry to charge at the beginning, he might be now
It should have been celebrated in Yingzhou City for a long time.
Although the little Tatar prince knew that he had been fooled, it was already dusk, and the two armies were in a stalemate, so it was not easy to separate. Not to mention letting the cavalry charge, so in this case,
The little Tatar prince could only rely on his own thrills to surround Wang Xun's army. However, it was dark at this time, and most people on the grassland had nightmares and did not dare to fight at night. So they could only
Pause the attack and plan to avenge today at dawn tomorrow.
Speaking of which, it was also Tianyou Ming Dynasty. After Wang Xun was surrounded, although he wanted to break through at night, unfortunately, the defense of the grassland people was very strict, even if it was affected by night syndrome. Wang Xun still failed to rush out. But it was Wang Xun
When I felt despair, there was another turn in the early morning. A heavy fog suddenly broke out between the sky and the earth. After more than ten feet, I could no longer see what was ahead.
Seeing this heavy fog, Wang Xun also shouted "God helps me." Then he rushed into the army of the grassland people, but in the fog, he did not defend his enemies. The grassland people could not even find soldiers.
In the end, Wang Xun rushed out. Although many people in the Ming army were also lost in the fog, at least most of them rushed out.
After this battle, both the Ming and the Mongols suffered a lot of losses, especially when Wang Xun and others rushed out in the fog, because both sides were like blind people, and often encountered large troops falling into most of the people.
Even one of the Mongolians followed Wang Xun's army into the Ming army, and their ending was extremely miserable. It was precisely because of this that although the morning confrontation was quite long, the casualties were caused by a lot. In the end,
After rule, the Ming army lost more than 3,000 people, and the Mongols were almost the same. In fact, the Ming army took advantage.
The casualties of three thousand people were already a huge loss for Wang Xun, and he did not suffer any losses in the battle yesterday. It can be said that he had completed the task assigned by Zhengde perfectly. Next, he only needed to take advantage of the benefits of the camp and the Tatars.
The prince confronts and then waits for reinforcements to arrive, and the Mongols will naturally retreat.
But Wang Xun still underestimated Zhengde. Just a few days after he confronted the little prince of Tatar, he suddenly received Zhengde's order. This time he still ordered him to take the initiative, but Zhengde still had a little conscience this time.
He told Wang Xun that he had mobilized the support of the surrounding Xuanfu, Liaodong and other border troops and would soon arrive in Yingzhou, so Wang Xun only needed to be confident and bold in fighting with the little Tatar prince. As long as reinforcements arrived, they would even
It can wipe out the Mongolian cavalry completely.
This time, Wang Xun still felt a little unreliable after receiving the order from Zhengde. After all, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. God knows when the reinforcements will arrive. If they go to war, those reinforcements will be delayed on the road. Then he will
All the people died and they arrived, so they could only collect the body of themselves.
But the same thing is said, the king's order is hard to disobey, not to mention that on the battlefield, Zhengde has given himself a general, so the order he issued is a real military order. If Wang Xun disobeys the order, then Zhengde
No one dares to say anything after he is cut off.
In desperation, Wang Xun had to take the initiative again. It was also very interesting to say that the little prince of Tatar suffered a small loss last time, but he let Wang Xun escape from the siege, which almost made him furious.
After a few days of rest, he was about to use cavalry to rush across Wang Xun's military camp, but he never expected that Wang Xun would take it out of the military camp again. This kind of completely unruly
The way of playing made the little prince of Tatar unable to touch his mind, and even almost suffered another loss.
However, as the saying goes, it is impossible to be reborn. Last time, Wang Xun accidentally caught the little prince of Tatar off guard. Although this time, this time, the little prince of Tatar was surprised, he quickly realized that he was commanding his cavalry in segments.
The impact soon broke out in several sections of Wang Xun's army and surrounded it again.
Although Wang Xun is also a good general, the Datong Army in his hands is not as elite as the grassland cavalry, and the number of people is not superior, so he can only watch his troops be divided and surrounded, and in the end, even himself
He was also surrounded by the grassland people. No matter how he rushed, he could not escape the grassland people's fast horses. What's worse is that there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, and it probably wouldn't last long.
Seeing the brothers around him die one by one, the reinforcements that His Majesty the Emperor promised in his order were still missing, which made Wang Xun angry and angry. Although he dared not scold Zhengde, he actually thought of this person in his heart.
The unreliable emperor scolded him all the time, but soon he had no time to scold him because he, the general, had to go on the battlefield and kill the enemy himself, and the slaves around him were no longer enough to protect his safety.
However, Wang Xun is worthy of being a good general. Even in this desperate situation, he still insisted on not surrendering. He even led his own soldiers to kill several layers of encirclement and gathered some of the divided Datongs.
In the end, he insisted on one day and one night. Until the next morning, the little Tatar prince ordered a fierce attack again. This time, Wang Xun could not hold on. He was about to collapse the entire army, and if the army collapsed on the battlefield
Then the next step is a cruel massacre, because an unorganized army is actually similar to that of ordinary people.
It was at this critical moment that our wise and powerful Emperor Zhengde finally arrived on a sweat-blooded horse, stepped on colorful clouds, and led a large number of reinforcements. Moreover, Zhengde also saw at a glance the miserable situation of Wang Xun's about to be defeated, and there was no such thing as now.
After delaying, he immediately ordered reinforcements to attack, and he also led the way and rushed over with the army.
Wang Xun, who was already holding a desperate intention, saw the reinforcements coming towards Chaoyang. His eyes were hot and he almost burst into tears excitedly, especially when he saw His Majesty the Emperor wearing armor actually led his troops to kill him.
At that time, he was also shocked. While shouting that "reinforcements are coming", he reorganized the army and desperately entangled the Mongolians and refused to let them retreat.
The little Tatar prince did not know that the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty were led by Emperor Zhengde himself, and he didn't even know that Emperor Zhengde was not in the capital, but came to the border army. However, these were not important to him, and he fought with Wang Xun.
One day and one night later, the cavalry under his command had lost its spirit. At this time, he encountered reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty. Although it seemed that there were only more than 20,000 people, it was enough to decide the outcome of the battlefield.
The little Tatar prince was also a very decisive person. Seeing that the situation on the battlefield was not good for him, he immediately ordered the entire army to retreat. Speaking of which, the little Tatar prince's army was all cavalry, which was like the wind, so Zhengde
The reinforcements only fought with the grassland cavalry for a few times, but found that the opponent had withdrawn for several miles and could not catch up even if they wanted to.
However, the little prince of Tatar was not an easy person to give up. Although he retreated temporarily, he did not retreat much. After a night of rest, the little prince of Tatar once again led his army to the city of Yingzhou, preparing to prepare for the
He fought to the death with the Ming army. After all, Wang Xun's army was already half-destroyed by himself yesterday. Although a group of reinforcements came, there were only more than 20,000 people. If he fought to the death, he might not be sure to defeat him.
Zhengde was also prepared for the little Tatar prince who came over again. After saving Wang Xun's Datong Army yesterday, he immediately ordered the other party to reorganize the army and at the same time personally brought wine to reward the three armies. Datong Army did not expect this
The second time was His Majesty the Emperor who came here in person, and also brought reinforcements and wine and meat, which shocked their morale. After all, in this era, the emperor's personal expedition had a huge effect on the morale of the army, and could even affect the victory of a war.
