Chapter 454: Soldiers come to Yangzhou for the moon
There are only two choices before Wen Muan.
One is to fight to the end, and the other is to surrender.
Fraudulent reduction requires greater risks, but the results are good and may be done once and for all.
But the deadly rules require a little bit of grinding, and even if you keep them, you will win miserably.
Wen Muan was in a dilemma.
"Wen Fu Zun, you said something."
"Yes, what should I do? Let me give you an accurate statement."
"Wenfu Zun, as long as you give your order, we will definitely die."
Wen Muan thought for a long time before sighing: "The risk of fraudulent reduction is too high. You should prepare to fight and retreat to the enemy."
Hearing Wen Muan's decision, the generals were a little disappointed.
But Wen Muan was the person in charge of Yangzhou Prefecture after all, so he took the photo and the others naturally couldn't say much.
They can only fight against the upcoming war
"Your Majesty, Yangzhou City is ahead."
The distance from Nanjing to Yangzhou is not far. Zhu Youlang mobilized nearly 100,000 troops to attack Yangzhou, which is enough to show his importance to Yangzhou.
"Well, order the army to camp first."
Zhu Youlang knew very well that a big city like Yangzhou City would not be easy to fight, so there was no need to rush this day and a half.
After restoring your energy, you can attack the city early tomorrow morning.
"I obey the order!"
Li Dingguo and Zhao Xu all bowed their fists and took the orders
The Ming army formed a formation and camped, and the entire formation was in the shape of plum blossoms.
A group of people guarded Zhu Youlang in the middle of the camp in the shape of stars holding the moon.
It was during dinner that Zhu Youlang summoned Li Dingguo, Zhao Xu and others, and the king and his ministers discussed their next plans while having dinner.
"Your Majesty, our army launches an offensive tomorrow morning. General Li can attack one city gate separately, and the remaining two city gates will be feinted. What does your Majesty think?"
"Can."
Zhu Youlang nodded: "I can absolutely trust King Jin and General Zhao."
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier from the Tiger Army rushed into the account and fell to his knees and shouted: "No, the enemy attacks!"
Zhao Xu glared at him fiercely and said, "Rareless! Why is there such no rules in front of His Majesty? What's going on? Tell me carefully."
"Two soldiers and horses came from the north and south, and they rushed straight towards our camp, as if they were about to attack at night."
"In other words, the fight has not started yet, then you are clamoring here, it sounds like the enemy has already attacked the camp!"
After all, in front of the Holy Divine, Zhao Xu must maintain the dignity of the Emperor.
If everyone was as rushing against the saint like this soldier, then the rules would be all messed up.
"I'm here to ask you, you may see how many soldiers and horses the enemy has come."
Zhu Youlang didn't want to scare the soldier, so he made his tone more gentle as possible.
"Reply to Your Majesty, it's too dark for the villain to see clearly. However, judging from the sound of horse hooves, there are at least tens of thousands of people."
Tens of thousands of people
Zhu Youlang's heart sank, quite surprised.
There were so many people who had not yet emerged from the city, so it must have been the Qing army who had brought rescue troops.
On the north of Yangzhou is Huai'an, and on the south is Changzhou and Susong.
These two reinforcements should have come from these directions.
"King of Jin, General Zhao will go out to see me."
Zhu Youlang didn't care about eating anymore, so he immediately got up and lifted the curtain and walked out.
It was already dark, and the Ming army had to use torches to see the situation nearby.
Although Zhu Youlang has a monocular telescope, he does not have night vision.
He could only look at it with his naked eyes like others with the reflection of the torch.
Judging from the current situation, the enemy did not seem to be in a hurry to attack, but instead circulated outside.
The enemy troops are all cavalry, so they have a basis for advancing and retreating, and take the initiative in the battlefield.
The Ming army responded to changes in a constant way.
The enemy does not move, I do not move.
Zhu Youlang asked Li Dingguo for advice: "What kind of way does the King of Jin think the enemy's army are?"
Li Dingguo shook his head and said, "In my foolish opinion, the Tartars do not seem to be in a hurry to attack. Perhaps they were here to reinforce but did not calculate the time, but now they cannot enter the city."
Zhu Youlang nodded? Li Dingguo’s analysis is not without reason.
Yangzhou is an important town. After the Qing army guards learned that the Ming army would attack Yangzhou, they would definitely seek help as soon as possible.
However, there is a time difference, and the Ming army marched again, and the marching speed was probably much faster than the Qing army expected.
In this case, it is very likely that we will walk behind the Ming army.
This led to the embarrassing situation where the Qing army finally arrived outside Yangzhou City, but encountered the embarrassing situation where the Ming army was also there.
At this time, the ward of Yangzhou City will definitely not be able to open the city gate and let reinforcements enter the city. Otherwise, what if the Ming army followed it into the city?
I guess the Qing army reinforcements knew this well, and they could not leave even if they left. They could only hesitate on the outside when they would attack.
This was a good opportunity for the Ming army.
If the Qing army and reinforcements in Yangzhou City join forces, it will be difficult to deal with.
Now the Ming army can take advantage of the opportunity to defeat each other.
"Your Majesty, please take the initiative to attack? The enemy's agility is wrong."
"Your Majesty? I also ask for a fight."
"Okay? I will cheer for King Jin and General Zhao."
Zhu Youlang grabbed the drum hammer from his personal hand, and walked to the drum and started to beat it.
Li Dingguo and Zhao Xu led 10,000 cavalry out of the battle? The Qing soldiers who were cruising were shocked.
Originally they were still waiting and watching, but now they have to fight.
One in the south and one in the north, the two broke into the enemy's formation and teared a huge hole.
In comparison, the cavalry under Li Dingguo was more sharp, so they killed more.
"Kill the enemy!"
The Li Dingguo tribe was extremely brave, like a tiger rushing into the flock of sheep, and was slashing and slashing with a horizontal knife.
The Qing soldiers were completely unprepared? They were in a very embarrassing situation after a hasty response.
The impact force is very important in horse battles? Under a strong impact, the formation can be completely destroyed.
Many Qing cavalry were directly washed off their horses and trampled to death by horse hooves.
Some Qing soldiers' armor was easily cut by the Ming army's horizontal sword, breaking a bloody hole.
Although they do not die immediately, bleeding can lead to chronic death.
The Ming cavalry could continue to kill other Qing cavalry without focusing on these injured Qing soldiers.
"Kill the enemy and serve the country!"
"It's time to serve the Ming Dynasty!"
"For the Ming Dynasty, for Your Majesty!"
"Run!"
The Ming army's cavalry charge was the sharpest three-wall mode, similar to the wall-type charge.
The distance between riders is very close and there is almost no room.
In this case, the steering of the cavalry formation will be difficult, but it can maintain the formation to the maximum extent.
To put it bluntly, this is a kind of shock that is burning and storming.
Either you die or I die!
But generally speaking, the party that takes the initiative to launch a wall charge.
The brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road. The more afraid of death, the more concerned the side will end up in a miserable defeat.
Chapter completed!
