1018, the little lackey He Mou

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Yang Fan left 15,000 infantrymen to set up defenses on the inside of the left shoulder of the Yellow River. The main purpose was to prevent the Mongolians in Linhe City from crossing the Yellow River south to support the Ordos tribe, so as not to affect the plan to annihilate the Ordos tribe.

Now, although hundreds of thousands of Mongolians have gathered in Linhe City, the Mongolian tribes in the desert are still coming. However, there is a large camp from Beijing on the south bank of the Yellow River, with 15,000 troops stationed. Jiuyuan in the east

There are 40,000 militia groups in the city and 15,000 Beijing troops garrisoned there. These Mongols dare not move rashly.

The scouts from both sides have exchanged fire many times, using firearms, bows and arrows, and steel crossbows to shoot at each other. Every time the small groups of scout cavalry from both sides encountered each other, it was a melee.

Yang Fan arranged his troops and set up camp, which blocked the possibility of the Ordos people breaking out from the northwest to Linhe to join the Mongolian army. At the same time, he also blocked the possibility of the various Mongolian coalition forces in Linhe going south to support Ordos.

The two battlefields have been separated. Once the battlefield is blocked, you can safely support battlefields in various places.

Yang Fan left the heavy cannons in Jiuyuan City. He brought all the light ones and left them in the Henan camp. Yang Fan made up his mind that the Henan camp was just a stronghold and could not hold out.

Although the Mongols have a large number of people, they absolutely dare not bypass these two strongholds. If they want to move eastward or southward, they must pull out these two nails.

After arrangements were made for the Henan camp, the military report came that something had happened to the troops in Ningxia Town.

They were besieged by the Mongolian coalition forces in the west of Ordos not far from Huamachi. I heard that the Mongols in the west were under the command of Urigengda Lai Taiji and almost all the troops in the west were assembled.

Yang Fan immediately understood Wu Rigeng's intention.

Yang Fan's 11th Route siege was actually divided into thirty-three troops, roughly one regiment, that is, more than 3,000 people per route. In this way, they swept towards the Ordos Plateau from all directions. The network was so tight that the Mongols lost the space to move around.

, could only retreat passively, and was eventually compressed to Dongsheng City.

Wu Rigeng replied that this was his plan, hit the force and cut off one of his fingers. This made Yang Fan dare not send 3,000 people to one group. In this way, the gap between the various groups was greatly widened, and the troops could be concentrated to form a local advantage.

Possibility of eating it all the way.

In this way, the battle will be easy to fight. As long as the mesh is expanded, the Mongols and other swimming fish cannot be caught, and this strategy will lose its effect. They are all cavalry, so they can bypass the back to attack the transportation line.

Yang Fan immediately decided that he must go to the rescue immediately. Otherwise, if the Chinese army in Ningxia Town was completely annihilated, the other three towns would not dare to use 3,000 people per group, and shrink to 10,000 people per group. Even if Yang Fan forced it, it would not matter.

Use. He actually has no way to monitor the situation below.

So, Yang Fan decided to go to the rescue with 3,600 cavalry from the Jia Ding Regiment. Zhang Shize was supposed to stay behind, but He Huchen was a disciple of his family and asked to go with him. So he had to let him go with 1,500 cavalry.

It took more than three hundred miles to arrive in three days.

This time, the servants of the British government were very tired. Although they arrived at Guihua City, they had already received one man and three horses from the Mongols. However, when they started running, they discovered that they were very different from Yang Fan's servants.

Far.

Their horses are all Mongolian horses and Liaodong horses. They are already the best horses in the Ming army. But compared with Yang Fan's horses, they are simply garbage. Yang Fan's horses are generally one foot taller at the shoulders and limbs than their horses.

Slender, one step and a half ahead of them. Still, Yang Fan suppressed his speed, allowing them to barely keep up.

Three days later, with the constant reports from the scouts, they learned that He Huchen and the others had thrown away almost all their equipment, escaped at night, joined the South Road, and set up camp by a small river. So, they rushed towards the camp.

Fortunately, what Yang Fan was most worried about did not happen. Yang Fan was afraid of rushing to the battlefield and seeing dead bodies everywhere.

Five thousand cavalry stood silently at the entrance of the camp consisting of side carriages. After a while, He Huchen and the Ningxia generals hurried out to greet them.

"The last general has seen General Zhengxi." Although He Huchen had gray hair, he was full of energy and shouted loudly.

Other officers, big and small, followed to pay tribute to Yang Fan.

Yang Fan's face was cold, he rode on his horse and said, "No courtesy."

The generals hurriedly stood up, and He Huchen raised his hands to Zhang Shize and said, "He, the little lackey, has met the young master."

Zhang Shize said with a smile: "Old He, what the hell did you do, let others make dumplings? Fortunately, you ran out. If something happened to you, it would be a big deal."

He Huchen's face turned red and white for a while.

He had been fighting for his whole life, and when he got old, he became disgraced.

He knew that as long as he revealed his name, it would be impossible for Zhang Shize not to defend him. In all likelihood, Uncle Dingyuan would not pursue this matter any further.

Yang Fan planned to betray Zhang Shize to save face. Since this matter wasn't too bad, he didn't plan to deal with these idiots.

"It's windy outside, so I'd like to invite the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief to come into the camp and wash themselves off first. I'll give you a detailed report." He Huchen said with a smile.

In the past three days, we have indeed been on the road again and again, crossing the Kubuqi Desert, leaving everyone covered in yellow dirt.

Yang Fan looked at He Huchen and said, "Wu Ri Geng Da Lai, where are you going?"

"Returning to what the Marshal said, the Mongols went west. Ye Bu collected what he just returned. The horse dung and the traces on the sand are all going west."

Hearing this, Zhang Shize said with some confusion: "Is Wu Ri Geng Da Lai crazy? To the west is the Yellow River, and beyond the Yellow River is Ningxia Town. What is he going to the west for?"

Yang Fan thought for a moment, slapped his thigh and said, "No, they plan to go through Ningxia Town, cross Helan Mountain, and go from Alxa to Linhe to join Dasa."

Zhang Shize, He Huchen and others were all shocked, and Wu Ri was even more surprised at how courageous he was.

But when I thought about it again, I understood.

Ningxia Town is a small piece of the Yellow River impact plain from the north to the south. It is not very wide, and it is not difficult to rush through it. Although Ningxia Town still has 20,000 guard soldiers and 6,000 battalion soldiers left behind. However, they may not dare to leave the city and

Mongolian field battle.

Yang Fan raised his head and thought for a while, then said: "No, we can't let them go to Ningxia Town to cause trouble. We must chase them."

Yang Fan presided over this massacre. If trouble was brought to Ningxia Town, it would be Yang Fan's responsibility.

Zhang Shize looked back at the exhausted servants, with a troubled look on his face. The fifteen hundred cavalry he had brought with him could no longer run. They really couldn't keep up with Yang Fan.

Yang Fan knew that they were exhausted during this journey.

Yang Fan said: "You and your servants stay here to rest, and I will lead people to pursue them. To prevent them from coming back. There are infantry here. If the Mongols come back, they will not be able to catch up. You stay to stop them."

Zhang Shize nodded and said, "Okay, let's stay here to rest. If Wu Rigendailai runs back again, I will hold him back until you come back."
