Chapter 293 Warm Up

These are all chain reactions caused by the Liaoyang massacre. Yue Tuo, who was highly valued by Daishan and Huang Taiji, is still in banned.

The slave cavalry surrounded by two wings had become a siege, and Ma Xiaowu said impatiently: "Young Master, it's time to leave."

Ma Cheng smiled and two thousand Kaiyuan Iron Cavalry under his command were the leader, and ten thousand Ming cavalry rolled westward. The vanguard Iron Cavalry relied on heavy armor to protect him. The hidden horses under his crotch were tall and large, and easily tear open the fragile encirclement of the Eight Banners soldiers and left.

.The Shanxi Gun Cavalry, behind, placed guns randomly, guiding 10,000 Ming troops to land at the end and retreated in Baicheng.

In the evening, on the vast grasslands in the desert.

Mongolian light cavalry ran and shot, the Eight Banners soldiers chased each other wildly, and there were cavalry chasing each other everywhere, and people were on the back and horses were overturned everywhere. Mongolian light cavalry finally showed a little bit of the style of descendants of the Mongolian Empire. They beat the horses very quickly on the way to escape, and rely on the more

The light leather armor and more exquisite riding skills greatly exerted the maneuverability of the light cavalry. The Eight Banners soldiers wearing heavy cotton armor and carrying machetes gradually fell at a disadvantage.

How the Mongol Empire conquered the whole world? Macheng found the answer from the Korqin Light Cavalry under Lin Danhan, one word, drag.

In such a vast grassland battlefield, who will have the upper hand or heavy cavalry? The answer is light cavalry. Under such special battlefield conditions, the Mongolian light cavalry is really coming and going like the wind. In contrast, the heavy cotton armor on the Eight Banners soldiers is used to

The heavy long weapons became a huge burden, and they gradually lost in the horsepower competition. Ma Cheng couldn't help but feel funny. Ma fights with Mongolians as their ancestors, and the Later Jin Dynasty was really a half-tongued person who became a monk halfway.

At night, the tired Eight Banners soldiers finally couldn't catch up and stopped to rest.

The Mongolians ran away for a day and stopped running, and planned to fight back at night. What made Macheng embarrassed was that they ran away for a day, and the Ming army under their command was also dragged down, and they were gasping like tired dogs. Every bag on the horse's back

Water, every armor-breaking arrow, and every pair of armor seem to have become a huge burden. Fortunately, the main war horses still maintain abundant physical energy, and the journey is replaced by Mongolian horses with better endurance, and tall Tibetan horses.

The endurance is far less than that of Mongolian horses.

If Macheng doesn't look down on the heroes of the world, Mongolian light cavalry has its own unique advantages on the vast grassland and should not be underestimated. Looking at his exhausted subordinates who were so cold that they were snot and exhausted, Macheng is increasingly commemorating the mighty Emperor Yongle.

Faced with such a difficult and faster Mongolian light cavalry than a rabbit, how Emperor Yongle returned from expedition to the grasslands and returned victoriously, it has been a unique martial arts masterpiece throughout history.

How powerful is Emperor Yongle? Just look at the crushing defeat of the famous general Qiu Fu.

Qiu Fu is also a famous general of a generation. He led 100,000 elite Ming troops to fight north of Mongolia, but was dragged to death by the powerful mobility of the Mongolian Light Cavalry. That battle was also a half-true and half-false defeat, attracting Qiu Fu to lead the elite cavalry to chase them wildly.

, dragged the invincible Ming Iron Cavalry into a half-destroy, and then wiped out all the 100,000 Ming Iron Cavalry in one battle. Now Lin Danhan uses the same tactics, and the routine is almost exactly the same.

After Qiu Fu went out of the border, he led more than a thousand people to the south of the Luqu River. He met the enemy cavalry and defeated them and then flowed into the river. He captured one of his ministers, gave him wine, and asked Benya Sili now

where.

The Secretary said: "I heard that the army was coming, and he fled north in fear. Now he is about thirty miles away."

Qiu Fu was overjoyed and said, "He should be captured immediately."

The generals asked the army to gather together and reconnaissance the truth and then send troops. Qiu Fu refused to listen. He took the Secretary of State as his guide and headed straight to the enemy camp. Two days after fighting, every time the enemy fought, the enemy always pretended to be defeated and retreated. Qiu Fu was anxious to think about it.

Take the opportunity to get it.

Li Yuan advised: "The general underestimated the enemy's words and led the army to fight without any confidence. The enemy deliberately showed weakness to lure our army into depth. Our army will inevitably be unfavorable to advance, and if we retreat, we may be able to take advantage of the enemy, so we can only build a camp and consolidate our own strength.

During the day, the flags and drums are raised, and surprise troops are sent to challenge the enemy; at night, the torches are lit and cannons are lit, and the army is ignited, making the enemy confused. When all our troops arrive and attack together, they will surely win, otherwise the entire army can also

Back. Have you forgotten what the emperor said to the general?”

Wang Cong was too irresponsible, and Qiu Fu couldn't listen and said sternly: "Those who disobey orders will be killed!"

Then he led the horse forward and ordered the soldiers to go there. All the horses were crying. The generals had no choice but to walk with him. Soon, the enemy arrived and surrounded them heavily. Wang Cong died in battle, Qiu Fu and the generals were captured and killed.

Qiu Fu was 60 years old at that time and his entire army was wiped out. The news reached the court. Zhu Di, the emperor of Chengzu, was furious. Because no one of the generals could take on this position, he decided to personally fight. He deprived Qiu Fu of his hereditary title and moved his family to Hainan.

.

This is a record in historical books, but the truth may not be so. From Ma Cheng's personal experience, Qiu Fu did not underestimate the enemy but was beaten by a scoundrel who fled around like a Mongolian rabbit. He exploded with anger and lost his mind. Once he searched for it, he was looking for it.

When he arrived at the fighter, he lost his judgment and chased after him like crazy, and thus fell into the Mongolian routine.

This highlights the great bull of Emperor Yongle. Patience is the secret of Emperor Yongle's crushing Mongolia.

Obviously, Dorgon and Jirgalang did not have this patience. They chased behind and ate the soil for a day. Now they are so angry that their noses are crooked. The cavalry and grassland chase battles have suffered extremely little losses, and the biggest loss is the horses.

Compared with the standard equipment of Mongolian leather armor and leather robes, the Eight Banners soldiers' fine cotton armor was much warmer but heavier, and the horse losses were even more serious.

As night comes, the weather is very clear and the night sky is clear.

The camping place of the king's tent was a small river formed by melting ice and snow. The water was shallow, but it was enough to provide sufficient water for the army.

At night, it's dry and cold.

After taking off all his clothes, the king's soldiers holding Mongolian scimitars went down the river. The front row had been flooded by the river to their knees, and the back rows were also stepped into the water. They stepped on the river water so that the water was splashing everywhere, but their eyes were still flat.

Looking ahead, howling like a wolf.

The sound of water splashes became louder and louder. The first row of Mongolian soldiers had been flooded with the cold and bone-bone river water, but their eyes were still firm, and their movements continued to move without any slowness, allowing the cold river water to flood the lower abdomen and flood

There was no slight wavering in my stomach, no pause, I stepped on my feet in neat steps, and a tenacious look on my face. Even if I was flooded by the river, it seemed that even if there was a sea of ​​swords and fire in front of me, I might not be able to stop them.

go ahead.

Amid the shrill howling like a wolf, Lin Danhan issued an order to turn back, turned around in place, and moved from the front row to the back row at the same rhythm, and walked through the river with the same pace.

After coming out, dressed, put on armor, and poured barley wine in large mouthfuls, the body naturally became hot, and many people's heads were steaming. Ma Cheng smiled knowingly, and the elite soldiers of the king's tent were indeed well-known. This warm-up method was eye-opening.
