Come to Daming with military supplies

Yang Chendong did not follow the ministers to petition the emperor, he watched all this with cold eyes.

Judging from the situation at that time, the decision to move the division back to the court was undoubtedly very correct.Although the mobilization of troops this time was fruitless, at least the army did not suffer major losses.

At this time, not only Yang Chendong saw this, but also Zhu Qizhen and Wang Zhen, the actual commander of the army, also saw this.

The previous Datong battle was launched under the instruction of Wang Zhen. He sent Song Ying, the general soldier of Datong, and Shi Heng, the governor, to fight against Wala first.In his imagination, these two people are enough to deal with Ye Xian first, so that when he arrives, he can put on airs and show off without really continuing to fight.

Having said that, if it really started to fight, Wang Zhen might not have the guts to do so.

Wang Zhen was worried that Song Ying and Shi Heng dared not do their best, and arranged for his confidant eunuch Guo Jing to be the supervisor.Then, under the urging of the eunuch, the two sides fought, because they were eager to fight, they fell into an ambush first, and even because of Guo Jing's restraint, part of Song Ying's army was wiped out, and Shi Heng and Guo Jing fled back. The power of Wala really frightened Wang Zhen.At this time, all civil and military officials strongly advised the class teacher, so he chose to follow everyone's wishes and agreed.

Now that you have decided to withdraw the army, it is not far from Datong at this time. There is no danger in withdrawing the army at this time.

On the third day of the eighth month, the Ming army decided on a division. Guo Deng, the deputy general of Datong, suggested that retreating from Zijingguan to Beijing would be far away from the possible attack route of Oala. Stand up and make a different suggestion.

To say that Wang Zhen can have the current status is indeed suspected of speculation.But it is precisely because of this that he has the appearance of a villain, and he is used to showing off wherever he goes.Now I know how powerful the Oirat cavalry is, and I also know that I can't fight with strength.But I went back like this, somewhat regretful, so I decided to satisfy my desire to show off, and proposed not to go back to Datong, but to return to Weizhou (Wang Zhen’s hometown) in Shanxi to show off its prestige by "being lucky to be its first place".

When he came out of Weizhou, Shanxi, Wang Zhen was still a shabby household. Now that he is in great power and powerful, he wants to go back to his hometown and show off.

Because of Wang Zhen's insistence and the fact that Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was persuaded to agree, the army had no choice but to go to Weizhou, Shanxi.

But when he was approaching Weizhou and forty miles away from the Zijing Pass, Wang Zhen suddenly changed his mind and stopped going to Weizhou, asking everyone to stop because he was afraid that the army would trample on the crops in Weizhou .Years ago, he got a lot of potato seeds from Yangjiazhuang and the Ministry of Households and planted them here.

In order to preserve this high-yielding crop, the army was not allowed to move forward.This reason convinced Zhu Qizhen again, and the army moved towards Xuanfu instead.

Regarding this, Yang Chendong remained silent.At this moment, what can he do if he tries to persuade her?With his current status and status, it is impossible for Yingzong and Wang Zhen to adopt his words, and if he raises them hastily, it will only arouse their disgust.

The Ming army had already marched towards the Xuan Mansion, and those who had been following behind also began to think about it.

Yexian's main cavalry was only about 3. Facing the Ming army's 50 main force, it had no idea and was not sure of winning the battle. It followed the Ming army for more than ten days, and looked at the Ming army like Twisting around like a stupid caterpillar, gradually, his heart was filled with confidence.It seems that the fighting power of these 50 people is not strong and vulnerable, so the order to attack was issued.

The Wala elite cavalry raided the Ming army in two groups. Wang Zhen was very nervous when he heard the news, so he urgently withdrew the army, and sent Wu Kezhong, Marquis of Gongshun, Wu Keqin, the governor, etc. to lead troops to resist the battle, but they were defeated. Wu Kezhong, as the guard of the Ming army, The strength of the army should be more than [-], but it is still vulnerable.

After being defeated in the First World War, they sent Zhu Yong, the Duke of Cheng, and Xue Shou, the Boss of Yongshun, to lead 4 horses to Yaoerling to fight Yexian.

The army led by Zhu Yong was the elite of the Ming army, mainly cavalry. After the defeat of this army, the Ming army had actually lost the cost of the decisive battle with the same army, and at the same time, the morale of the army had begun to slacken.In this way, the day before the Ming army arrived at the Tumu Fort, it had already suffered heavy losses, with at least 20 attrition, and less than [-] actual troops (excluding transport troops and civilians used in the war), and lost its elite cavalry.

When Zhu Yong led [-] iron cavalry to hit the target, he also ambushed first, and the news came that the armor would not return, Zhu Qizhen and Wang Zhen were so scared that they pissed and ran back.

On August [-], the army entered the Tumu Fort.

When the army arrived at the Tumu Fort, it was still dark and the sun had not set.At this time, it was only twenty miles away from Huailai County, and it could be arrived in a quick march.Once the army enters the county seat and fights against the city, the Oirat cavalry will have nothing to do.

At this point, it can be called a matter of life and death.Wang Zhen got up again and ordered the army to stop and stop advancing.

It turns out that more than a thousand vehicles belonging to Wang Zhen's sole production have not yet arrived, but these are all the things that the frontier army paid tribute to Wang Zhen along the way, and the price is tens of millions of taels.As the actual speaker of the Northern Expedition, of course the gifts from the magistrate "Zhuang Xing" were accepted by Wang Zhen with a smile.

The gifts from the officials along the way were too generous, so Wang Zhen gave up his life and money, and gave up the great opportunity to enter Jiancheng Huailai.

Wang Zhen asked everyone to wait for the car to arrive before leaving together.So in the place of Tumu Fort, Yingzong Zhuqi Town, hundreds of civil and military officials and hundreds of thousands of troops waited here all night.

When it was dawn, more than a thousand vehicles still hadn't arrived, and Wang Zhen couldn't wait any longer. He knew in his heart that the vehicles would not come, and he wanted to leave at this time.It's a pity that at this time, if you want to go any more, you can't go anymore. One night with enough time, the [-] elite cavalry from Wala had already surrounded the Ming army on several sides.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of troops were "surrounded" by [-] Oirat cavalry in a civil fort with no water source.

It is impossible to say that [-] encircle hundreds of thousands, but after these days of tossing, the army has long been frightened, with no morale, and completely lost most of its original combat effectiveness.

At this time, Wang Zhen was also frightened by the Oirat cavalry rushing in. In a panic, he dug trenches and set up barriers with the civil fort as the center for self-protection.

It's a pity that Wang Zhen doesn't understand warfare, he doesn't understand soldiers, and he doesn't even understand terrain.The Tumu Castle is located on a high terrain, without springs and water shortages, so it is not a place that can be defended.So in the next few days, hundreds of thousands of Ming troops were also surrounded and beaten. For two days and three nights, the worry of lack of water became more and more serious.

The Ming army dug three feet into the ground but could not dig out a drop of water. The morale of the army was completely lost, and the army's mind changed.

On August [-], Ye Xian suddenly withdrew his troops.Said that the fight was over, and sent a messenger to say that they wanted to talk about peace. This is simply a tactic of playing hard to get.

Chapter 136

But Wang Zhen believed it, maybe he was lying to himself.When he saw it, he took the first step and withdrew, and immediately ordered to go out to find a water source.

With this order, the soldiers removed the barriers, jumped out of the ditch, and ran desperately towards a small river fifteen miles away.

But after only running for three or four miles, tens of thousands of wara elite cavalry suddenly appeared and rushed into Daming's chaotic army.

When there are ten thousand soldiers, there is no border, and when there are one hundred thousand soldiers, you will be grounded all over the sky.

The Oirat army besieged on all sides, and the cavalry entered the formation, slashing and killing the Ming army with long knives, and the Ming army suffered heavy casualties.Wherever the saber passed, heads flew high, and while blood was flying, they also shouted loudly, "Those who disarm and throw blades will not be killed!"

In times of crisis, we can see the shamelessness of the officials of the Ming Dynasty: the slogan of the Oirat Army to persuade them to surrender is "Don't kill those who disarm and throw the blade", as long as they throw away their armor and armor and put down their weapons.But in order to save their lives, these officials actually took off all their clothes and trampled on each other naked. More people were trampled to death by their own people than hacked to death by the Oirat army.

At that time, the Oirat army was already out of formation and had no intention of killing the enemy, because they were busy making a fortune-specially picking up "gold, silver and precious jewels".If at this time one or two tough generals stood up and raised their arms and made a countercharge, it might turn the tide of the battle.Cao Cao did this kind of thing during the Three Kingdoms period, and Qin Qiong did it under Zhang Xutuo and Li Mi, but it is a pity that Wang Zhen is not Cao Cao, and there is no Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao among the generals of the Ming army.All the people were busy taking off their clothes to save their lives, and the tragedy after taking off their clothes has become the laughing stock of history.

Looking at Yingzong, he didn't get off his horse and sit down at all, but broke through and escaped under the strict protection of Jin Yiwei. It's a pity that everyone was busy undressing at that time, and no one came to support him.Jin Yiwei was alone and failed to break through the encirclement alone. In the end, Zhu Qizhen became a solitary boat on the sea, drifting under the protection of the guard general Fan Zhong. If Yang Chendong hadn't appeared, he would have been beaten by Wala like a chicken. The soldiers dragged it to the north

From the moment he left the capital, Yang Chendong seemed to be a bystander, watching everything that happened around him.

The army of the Ming Dynasty was defeated again and again, and wrong orders were issued by Wang Zhen. Zhu Qizhen, Emperor Yingzong, was like a puppet. It's just watching with cold eyes.

This is a close look at ancient warfare and a close look at the military power of the Ming Dynasty.

Even if some orders were wrong and were opposed by the ministers, but Zhu Qizhen agreed and Wang Zhen carried them out, even if Yang Chendong wanted to change anything, he couldn't do it.I can only watch the army fall into siege and disintegration step by step in this way, and finally the entire battle fails completely.

Among them, what Yang Chendong can do is really limited.Facing Wang Zhen, who is in charge of the actual military power of hundreds of thousands of troops, unless he can hold the opponent hostage, otherwise, it will be impossible to have any leading power in the war.

Everything until the balance of the war was completely one-sided, and the last moment finally came. The civil war can be called a farce. There is no cavalry hedge, no generals to fight the enemy bravely, no decisive battle of large corps, and no three The spectacular scene of the camp's firearms firing across the board.The timing of Oala's general attack was when the Ming army's camp was loose and when they moved the camp to fetch water, it didn't matter whether it was a trick to make peace first or the Ming army took the initiative to run to fetch water.

"Master, it's messed up, it's all messed up." Humang looked around with vigilant eyes, the May [-]th gun hidden under his sleeve had already been loaded, and the safety was opened. Anyone who found anyone trying to approach and threaten the young master At any time, he would shoot without hesitation, killing the enemy.

"Hey." A sigh came from Yang Chendong's mouth.

This sigh is for the hundreds of thousands of Ming troops!

This sigh is a sigh for Daming's decline!

This sigh is also a sigh to end the chaos in front of me!

"Proceed with the order and implement according to the first set of plans." Yang Chendong's eyes were still cold at this time, but when he looked carefully, there was more vitality and hope than before.

With an order, hundreds of people who had been wandering around started to move.Compared to those surrounding people who were completely messed up and were even undressing, they were well dressed and extremely fast, each carrying out orders according to the previous plan.

Wang Zhen.

This eunuch, who only knows how to grab power and grab money, is like a headless fly at the moment, looking around, his eyeballs are constantly rolling up and down, looking for life.

For him, the defeat of the army is not terrible, as long as he can survive, everything will be there.It won't be long before he can reorganize a new army and go to the battlefield.Of course, he might have such ability, but if he didn't have such courage, he would have to talk about it.

The four eyes were still blinking rapidly, and suddenly someone flashed past him.Among the chaotic army, such a scene is too common. The soldiers don't know the general, and the general doesn't know the soldier, and they run around like headless chickens.

But just when a figure flashed by his side, Wang Zhen felt a pain in his neck, and habitually stretched out his hand to touch it. An unstoppable blood spurted into his hand, and the hot flush made his eyes ache. It quickly grew bigger, and then Zhang shouted.
