Chapter 559 The arrival of the Huailing Army
"Wuwuwu~~" Wei Feng also blew a horn here, and the soldiers also fought and retreated, and soon separated from the enemy.
Yao Wen's troops and Tan Daoji's troops walked towards the distance, while the Ming army retreated back to the river.
Young Girl Chen and a hundred female Yasha did not participate in the battle. When they saw Wei Feng coming back, they were all disappointed!
It’s not their fault that they were nervous. Wei Feng was covered in blood, his armor, his cheeks were dyed red, and the blood beads on the steel gun dripped downwards!
Young girl Chen rushed over and said anxiously: "Master, are you injured?" and reached out to help Weifeng get off the horse.
Wei Feng flashed to the side like a plague god, laughing and said, "How could I be injured with my skills? It's all the blood of the enemy, haha~~ I killed it today so happily! Girl Chen, don't get involved with me, hurry up and bandage the injured soldiers with my sisters."
"Oh~~" Young girl Chen felt relieved, nodded, greeted her mother Yasha, picked up the medicine box and ran into the formation.
Wei Feng looked upstream and saw that the fleet was getting closer and closer, so he waved his hand: "If you are not injured, go down to the river and wash the blood on your body, don't be afraid of the cold!" As he said that, he removed two armors in a few seconds, and a fierce man took the lead in piercing into the river!
The personal guards in Wei Feng's army and a considerable number of soldiers have been trained by Wei Feng in Dong. They have withstood the test of the ice sea in such a strict village on the peninsula. Why are they afraid of a small flood on the Huaibei Plain?
For a moment, the thumping sound made a loud sound, and the soldiers took off their armor and jumped into the water one after another. Some soldiers who had never been trained in winter were infected by the atmosphere and turned their hearts into the water. The water surface was covered with black heads. Of course, there must be necessary warnings.
Women like Chen were secretly spitting in their hearts, facing their backs to the river bank, and they didn't even dare to look back!
The soldiers wandered in the cold river. Yao Wen and Tan Daoji led their troops to retreat more than ten miles away before gradually stopping.
"Hmph!" Tufa Wenzhi glanced at Tan Daoji and snorted coldly: "It's time for the matter. General Tan is still fighting with his wishes. If he had put in full force, why would that end? Maybe he would have defeated the Ming army long before the arrival of the Ming navy!"
Tan Daoji's face darkened and said unhappily: "The Ming cavalry is not inferior to the five coalition forces such as you, especially the one led by the Ming King. How can it be easily defeated? If you cannot defeat the Ming army, how can you shift all the responsibility to this general?
Soldiers are major issues of the country. You must plan repeatedly before you can fight. But you have just arrived. You have not found out the situation of the Ming army. They do not care about the fatigue of the soldiers from afar and want to win in one fell swoop with just a sharp spirit. How can there be such a good thing in the world? If the Ming King is so vulnerable, how could he have come to this day?"
Tan Daoji's counter-referencing meant a lot. Yao Bing was also secretly annoyed, but his face remained unchanged. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, everyone can say less. We do have some contempt for the Ming army, but after this battle, we can find the Ming army's bottom. Next time, we must know what you plan for the future. "General Tan, I wonder what your plans are?"
Tan Daoji pondered and said, "The most urgent task is to pick up the Huailing Army. As long as you cross the river, whether to stay or leave depends on me. I hope that the Huailing Army can hide its whereabouts and make it hurriedly noticeable to the Ming Navy. On the one hand, we must be on guard all the time, and on the other hand, we must send scouts to inquire."
Yao Peng nodded without comment: "General Tan is right, come on. Let's count the number of people first, and then rest."
The armies dismounted one after another, and some people simply lay down on the snow and ran for dozens of miles. Then they fought at high intensity, and even Hu Qi was gritting their teeth and holding on.
The Ming army soldiers did not stay in the river for too long. They washed away the blood on their bodies and went ashore. When Julia's fleet arrived, they were also counting the casualties of this battle. After an hour, the statistics showed that the Ming army was seriously injured and more than 4,000 people were killed in battle, and the losses were heavy. There were nearly 8,000 corpses of Yao Bing's troops and the Northern Army. The difference was so huge that the key was that the bamboo armor inlaid on the chest and abdomen of the Ming army played a great role, and they suppressed the Hu cavalry's rushing from the beginning. Otherwise, he would be rushed over and the consequences would be unimaginable!
However, it was quite uncomfortable to lose more than 4,000 people, and a sad atmosphere gradually spread.
Wei Feng glanced coldly and shouted: "Who can guarantee immortality when going to fight? He will fight the spirit of the Lord. In any case, our cavalry has withstood the test and is no less than anyone in the world. After this battle, Yao Peng's arrogance was destroyed. When he faced us in the future, he would definitely be timid in his heart. It can be said that this battle is a famous battle since the establishment of our army. The famous general of our Ming Iron Cavalry will spread all over the world from now on!
Okay, you all worked hard, buried the fallen soldiers, buried them on the river bank, and erected the monument. This is their battlefield and will always be admired by future generations!"
"Abide by the order!" The generals responded with a loud voice and led the soldiers to work hard on their own!
Some went to the nearby woods to make coffins and temporary wooden monuments, and some people waving shovels to dig the tomb pits along the river bank. For a moment, the riverside was busy, but the bodies of Hu Qi and the Beifu Army were thrown into the river. They would be washed slowly into the Huai River by the flood, and eventually they entered the sea and were buried in the fish's belly.
Julia was with Wei Feng and shook her head: "Empress, Julia is late. If she had come early, she would not have killed so many soldiers."
Liu Xingnan, who insisted on following, shook his head and said, "Sister Julia, it's not your business. Even the general didn't expect Yao Bing to be so crazy that he would beat him as soon as he came. You are not a god, how can you predict the future?"
Wei Feng smiled slightly and said, "Although the cavalry is elite, it needs to be sharpened. If you don't have real swords and spears, just rely on how to gallop on the grassland in the future, you will be at the right time. The soldiers have withstood the test of emergencies, and there will be no great casualties. Next, I only need to keep an eye on the Huailing Army and drag the Northern Mansion Army and even Yao Bing here. Sooner or later, I will be expected to win a great victory!"
"Yeah!" Julia nodded. She knew that Wei Feng was comforting her, and a trace of happiness surged into her heart.
"King, the Huailing Army opposite has appeared, about ten miles downstream!" At this moment, the lookout whistle on the ship suddenly shouted loudly.
"Oh?" Wei Feng immediately called out: "Go, get on the boat and take a look!"
Wei Feng led everyone to the boat. Sure enough, an army of more than 30,000 people was running back quickly in front of him. The formation was slightly scattered. Obviously, he didn't expect to encounter the Ming navy unexpectedly. He could also see that he was carrying a large number of wooden boards along with the car. This shows that in a very short time, the Huailing Army could tie a raft to cross the water.
"Okay!" Wei Feng shouted fiercely: "With the Huailing Army, you are not afraid of Tan Daoji running away. Keep a close eye on Gu, but don't alarm him!"
"As for order!" A wave of flag words were waved, and a warship sailed to the other side, and several scouts were released.
Liu Xingnan couldn't help but say, "General, don't you send troops to pursue him? The cavalry crossed the river very quickly. If he ran away, he wouldn't regret you to death!"
Wei Feng's eyes showed an idiot-looking look, and he shook his head in disappointment: "Even if the Huailing Army finds the trace of our army, it will not turn around and leave immediately. He always has to give it a try. It is very likely that he will cross the river at night. I will let him come over. When he crosses the river and surround him, Tan Daoji will not dare to leave even if he wants to."
"Oh~~" Liu Xingnan's pretty face turned slightly red and nodded.
......
That night, Wei Feng did not fall asleep as usual. When he made an appointment (at one o'clock in the morning), the girl Chen ran into the boat warehouse and said, "My king, it's true that the Huailing Army began to cross the river fifty miles downstream."
Wei Feng frowned, calculated his fingers, and after a while, he said: "Get ready for the entire army and set off in an hour!"
"As for the order!" Young Girl Chen took the order and left.
An hour passed in a flash. The fleet went down the river, and the cavalry followed the ships and moved forward at a medium speed. Twenty miles southwest of the river, just in the field, tens of thousands of soldiers were sleeping in thick felt and clothes. This was the Yao Bian tribe and Tan Daoji tribe. Because they needed to be flexible and maneuverable, they fought at any time, and neither department had a tent.
Although everyone was covered with several layers of felt, the severe cold of winter night still made the soldiers unconsciously squeeze into a ball.
Tan Daoji, Yao Bing and others did not fall asleep, but sat around in a bonfire, all silent and thought to be full of worries.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps broke the tranquility. Several people quickly turned to look, and a scout from the Northern Mansion Army rushed over.
Huan Daoji's heart moved and asked anxiously: "What's the matter?"
The scout hurriedly gave a gift: "Reported to General Tan and several generals, the Huailing Army has crossed the river fifty miles downstream of the Ming army."
Tan Daoji asked again: "It can be noticed by the Ming army."
The scout hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems nothing."
Tan Daoji waved his hand, and after the scout retreated, he turned his head and said, "I hope you can help me with your help to pick up the Huailing Army so as not to change."
Several people looked at each other, and Mu Suiliu tried and said, "General Tan, is it possible? This is the bait of the Ming army? Use the Huailing Army as bait, set up an ambush on the important road along the way, and encircle and annihilate our army in the dark?"
Tan Daoji said without hesitation: "How to set up an ambush in the thousand-mile plain in Huaibei? What's more, our army can reach the water on any route. How can the Ming King learn about it? Please rest assured that the Ming King will not seek boredom. Rescue soldiers is like putting out fires. Please do not hesitate."
Tufa Wenzhi looked like he was thinking about you and advised: "The King of Ming is meticulous and has many wisdom and ideas. It's better to be careful."
These people are not on the left and right. In Tan Daoji's opinion, it is definitely not for them to put a clear reason. If they dare to attack the Ming army with a tired army during the day, how could they have so many concerns? It must be for the sake of asking for benefits!
