Chapter One Thousand Five Hundred and Seventeen Everything is ready

The weather is also very strange. It was rare to encounter good weather in the past, but now it has been sunny and windy for two consecutive days.

The sun shone down, making the relationship between the Ming army and the Tatar tribe bright and clear.

When the Tatar tribe saw that the Ming army wanted to move the cannon to the front of the formation, they immediately sent a large number of cavalry to stop it.

Although the thunderbolts are extremely powerful and can attack the Tatars from a long distance, they will also be attacked by the Tatar cavalry once they get close. Therefore, when the Ming army cavalry fights against the Tatars, they will choose to constantly

movement in order to avoid being charged in front of the Tatar cavalry.

However, the cavalry of the Ming Army can move flexibly, but the cannons cannot move with the cavalry. Therefore, if they want to protect the cannons, the cavalry of the Ming Army will inevitably lose their mobility. They can clearly kill the Tatars by strolling around in motion, but they can't.

We had to fight head-on with the Tatars.

The Tatar tribe is extremely proficient in cavalry charges and mounted archery, compared to the Ming army. It is almost always suppressed in frontal battles with the Tatar tribe. As a result, casualties increase instantly.

Handu tried several times, but because of too many casualties, he had to give up the idea of ​​watching the Tatar charge and move the cannon to the front of the formation.

The Ming army and the Tatar tribe resumed the situation of confrontation with each other.

Han Du doesn’t know what the Tatar tribe thinks. ??

Anyway, Han Du was quite worried and once again called everyone to the commander's tent for discussion.

Azashili was the first to stand up, clasped his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "Master Marquis, I am willing to serve as a vanguard. Even if it costs my life, I have to go to the hillside. I don't believe that I can take down the Tatar tribe!"

Han Du glanced at Azashi, in which case the battle would have turned into a meat grinder. This would be equivalent to the Ming army giving up the powerful firepower advantage of firearms to trade lives with the Tatars.

Although Han Du could be sure of winning the final victory, he would kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. After such a fierce battle, I am afraid that there would not be many men left in the Ming army.

He waved his hand towards Azashri, signaling him to calm down, and sighed, "This is the last resort. I don't want to trade the lives of soldiers with the Tatars until it is absolutely necessary. Think about it again, there are

Is there no other way?"

Seeing Han Du's eyes looking at him, Xu Chengfei pondered for a moment, took a deep breath, and then said, "The reason why the Tatar tribe can intercept our cannons at any time is because they are condescending and can easily detect our movements. But if

Is their line of sight blocked?"

Han Du quickly lowered his crossed legs, sat up straight and leaned slightly toward Xu Chengfei, and said eagerly, "Continue!"

Other people's eyes also focused on Xu Chengfei.

Xu

Cheng Fei lowered his eyes slightly, twirled his beard, and uttered three words: "Baimao Feng!"

Everyone's eyes lit up instantly.

Zeng Xuan enthusiastically slapped his thigh and said with a grin, "That's right. Together with Bai Maofeng, the Tatars can't even see us. At that time, we just need to take advantage of Baimaofeng's cover to push the cannon forward and blast them to death."

These bastards!"

Contrary to the joy of everyone, Han Du remained calm and asked Azashili, "If Bai Maofeng comes with us, will the Tatar tribe also come to attack us?"

Azashi thought about it carefully before nodding solemnly and said, "Impossible! Together with Baimaofeng, if they come to make a sneak attack, they may not even be able to find our direction. Once we lose our way in Baimaofeng, then

There is only a dead end, and they won't take the risk."

Xu Chengfei nodded first, then shook his head, and then turned to Han Du, "With Baimaofeng, we can easily lose our way. I'm afraid we won't even be able to find the Tatar tribe, so how can we attack?"

The blizzard will not only block the Tatar tribe's sight, but also the Ming army will not be able to find its direction in the blizzard.

Han Du lowered his head and thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, we can't find the direction in the white-haired wind, but this problem is not impossible to solve."

"Oh? If you have any idea, tell me quickly!" Xu Chengfei suddenly became happy and urged eagerly.

Han Du thought for a moment, raised his eyes to look at everyone, and said with a smile, "Since we can't find the direction in the white-haired wind,

, then we can first determine the direction of the Tatar Department."

Han Du stretched out his hand, pushed all the things on the desk aside, and waved to everyone to come forward.

After everyone got up and came to the desk, Han Du took out a teacup and put it on the desk, "This is where the Tatar Department is."

He took out another tea cup and put it in front of him, "This is our camp."

As he spoke, he dipped his finger in water and pointed it towards the middle of the two teacups, "This is the position we want the cannon to advance to. It is indeed difficult for us to distinguish the direction in the white-haired wind, but we can take advantage of now and sit down here in advance.

Mark, when the time comes we just need to find the mark and then we will know in which direction we should attack!"

As he spoke, Handu drew an arrow in the middle pointing to the teacup representing the Tatar tribe.

Everyone looked up and looked at each other, smiles gradually appeared on everyone

On human face.

"Hahaha, Lord Marquis, what a clever plan!" Azashi suddenly burst into hearty laughter and gave Han Du a respectful fist-waving salute.

Xu Chengfei also nodded repeatedly and praised, "This method is good."

The strategy was agreed upon, and Han Du immediately sent cavalry to carry wooden stakes to the station and drive down the wooden stakes.

Seeing that the Ming army was moving again, the Tatar tribe thought that the Ming army wanted to push up the cannon again, so they immediately organized their cavalry to stop it. However, after the cavalry was summoned, they did not find any cannon coming out of the camp.

Seeing this, Arutai immediately ordered to stop the attack. Since the Ming people had not thought about pushing up the cannons and just sent out cavalry, they should be ignored.

To this day, Arutai still has lingering fears about the firearms of the Ming army. With such powerful firearms, bows and arrows have no room for use. Even if they send cavalry out, they will not be of any use except to die in vain.

In this case, it is better to stay back, since the Ming army would not dare to charge forward anyway!

However, Arutai also wondered what the Ming army wanted to do.

But he only saw a large number of Ming army cavalry only charging half the way, and then they stood there and kept shouting and cursing, as if they wanted to make the Tatars unable to stand the scolding and go out to fight them to the death!

"Haha" Arutai grinned and immediately ordered, "Ignore Akito and all tribes are not allowed to attack!"

The Ming army scolded them for a while, and seemed to know that the Tatars would not come down, so they returned to the camp angrily.

"You see, Akito are all cowardly foxes, they don't dare to charge at all!" Arutai smiled at the people around him.

These people naturally echoed the Taishi's rainbow fart, but they never thought about it. After they were intercepted by the Ming army's fierce firearms, didn't they dare to rush forward and fight to the death with the Ming army?

But Arutai didn't see it. Just where the cavalry left, dozens of two-foot-high wooden stakes had been nailed into the snow.

In order to avoid being spotted by the Tatar tribe, these wooden stakes were wrapped in cotton cloth so that they could not be spotted from a distance. Although the Tatar tribe was located high up, it was impossible to clearly see the wooden piles on the snow.

Han Du stood on the high platform of the camp and looked at the triangular wooden piles in the telescope. The arrow pointed to where the Tatar tribe was.

"Everything is ready, all I need is Baimaofeng!"

As he said that, Han Du took a look at the sky and saw that the sun was rarely showing its arrogant attitude today, spreading its warm sunshine onto the snow.

But sometimes God's will is so helpless. When the army was trudging through the snowstorm, Han Du wished that every day was a good day with the sun shining brightly, but he had to encounter a snowstorm that lasted for more than ten days. Now Han Du Qi

I was hoping that there would be a snowstorm soon, but it turned out to be good weather with the sun shining brightly for several days in a row.

Even Han Du was a little confused by God, "Are you deliberately going against me?"

"What's wrong?" Azashili came from behind with a smile on his face.

Ever since he made up his mind to completely surrender to the Ming Dynasty, he would come to Han Du every day to look familiar to him.

Once served as the king of Northern Yuan and Liao

How could Azashi not know the benefits of having someone in the court? He has no foundation at all in the Ming Dynasty. He is always an outsider to the Ming Dynasty. Now the Ming Dynasty will naturally not do anything to him if it needs it, but there is no guarantee that he will not do anything to him.

After all, if you don't know how to manage things, you will die sooner or later.

And Handu is the first supporter Azashili wants to find!

Through these days of insidious inquiries, Azashili has gained an in-depth understanding of Han Du.

Although Han Du was just a marquis, he was still a popular figure in front of the Ming Emperor, the queen's brother, a dignified uncle, and the consort of Princess Anqing.

It can be said that Han Du, the marquis, is even more important than other princes of the Ming Dynasty. His influence on the emperor is naturally one of the best.

If Han Du can really accept Azashili and is willing to take Wu Liangha under his wing, then Azashiri will truly be able to sit back and relax.

When Azashili came just now, he happened to hear Han Du talking to himself, so he immediately spoke out.

Han Du turned around and saw that it was Azashi. He immediately looked up at the sky with a look of helplessness, "Of course it's the weather. When we came here, how many white-haired winds did we encounter along the way? We're looking forward to it now."

It came, and the result was good, but it didn’t come!”

Azashi bowed slightly and echoed with a smile, "Don't worry, Lord Marquis. As far as I know, white-haired winds that last for several days are common in this season, but days with warm sunshine that last for several days like now are rare."

.I haven’t heard it a few times since I was a child, so as long as the Marquis waits patiently, there will definitely be a white-haired wind coming soon.”

"Haha, let me lend you some good words!" What else can Han Du do? This is God's business, and Han Du has no other choice but to wait.

"I don't dare! It's all thanks to the master's clever plan." Azashili bowed respectfully and responded with a smile on his face.
