Early the next morning, King Yan assembled his army and prepared to cross the river. However, what he never expected was that Li Jinglong, who was willing to accept the generals' suggestions humbly, was transformed and launched the attack first.【】
As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will win every battle. This time, the Yan army clearly underestimated Li Jinglong's IQ. In other words, Li Jinglong's IQ has not improved, but as long as he is a little more modest and willing to listen to other people's opinions, his decision-making will be collective wisdom.
of crystallized.
The ones who rushed to launch the attack in front of the Yan army were Qu Neng's men who were discovered by Dongfang Liang to move the camp last night. In addition, there was Ping Baoer who had made the first contribution yesterday. These two generals were both experienced in battle.
When Qu Neng attacked Beiping, if Li Jinglong hadn't been greedy for merit and ordered him to stop advancing, he would have been the world-famous general who invaded Beiping City and captured Princess Yan and the Crown Prince of Yan alive.
The two men went around to the lower reaches of the Baigou River, crossed the river, moved to the rear wing of the Yan army, and suddenly launched an attack. The commander of the Yan army's rear camp was Fang Kuan. They were shocked to see the Ming army appearing from the rear. They were horrified and commanded the army to resist.
, while sending an emergency report to the Yan army. Ping Baoer took the lead and led the army to break through the Yan army's rear camp. If Pingbao is a sharp knife, Qu Neng is a pair of pliers, commanding his two sons to tear Pingbaoer apart.
The gap in the Yan Army's rear camp continued to expand, and the Yan army's rear camp fought hard for a long time before beginning to collapse.
The news reached the main force camp that was preparing to cross the river. The generals were shocked when they heard that the Ming army suddenly appeared behind them. They all asked the King of Yan to resist the enemy by the river and cut off the enemies in the rear first. The King of Yan, Zhu Di, was also shocked by the sudden change.
Stunned, he calmed down and walked around the tent for a long time. Finally he stood still, faced the generals, and said in a deep voice: "Ignore him, he will fight his enemies, and I will fight mine. Let's gather the main force to attack Li Jiujiang's army!"
"
After this order, even Zhang Yu changed his face. They only thought that King Yan was disgraced because of his defeat yesterday, and was angry and wanted to regain his face at all costs. So they all tried to persuade him. Zhu Di strode over and Huo Di opened the door.
He pointed at the Ming army on the other side of the river and said: "Is it clear? The Ming army has been waiting for our army to retreat and then take the opportunity to cover it up. Once it retreats, it will be completely defeated by Li Jiujiang's superior force."
, absolutely no luck!”
The morning mist curled up, and it was dimly visible that the Ming army's camp was filled with cold air, and the three armies were already ready to go.
Zhu Neng said with enthusiasm: "The general understands that we should use attack instead of defense. As long as the Ming army's camp is defeated, the crisis in our rear camp will be solved."
Zhu Di said categorically: "Yes, we are dying to survive, that's all! Send the order and cross the river immediately to fight."
Zhu Di is usually very able to listen to other people's opinions, but at critical moments he can act arbitrarily. Fighting opportunities are fleeting. As a general, it is really taboo if he always hesitates and wavers in the face of the enemy. Once Zhu Di gives the order, the army will collapse like a mountain.
In a hurry, they immediately launched a full-scale attack on the Ming army on the opposite side.
The main attacker was Zhu Di's general Qiu Fu, who was leading the former soldiers and horses.
Qiu Fu was a simple and brave man. He was not as good as Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng in planning and planning, but he dared to fight in the face of the enemy and was never greedy for merit. Therefore, he was very popular among his subordinates. He knew that this battle was too difficult for King Yan.
It was important, so he took off his coat, bare his arms, and personally led the charge.
However, how many thousands of people did the Ming army have? With such a strong force, they actually went on the defensive. No matter how brave Qiu Fu was, how could he be able to save the day by himself? The battle lasted from early morning to three o'clock in the morning. Qiu Fu's troops suffered numerous casualties, and he himself suffered several serious injuries, but he could not
inch forward.
However, Zhu Di did not place all his hopes on Qiu Fu. He also knew how difficult it was to break through Li Jinglong's army head-on. Therefore, when Qiu Fu was fighting fiercely, Zhu Di had already led the army in person and quietly moved to the flank of Li Jinglong's army, thinking that
Cooperating with Qiu Fu to launch an attack, but at this time, he suddenly realized that his brother-in-law was here.
Xu Huizu's soldiers and horses suddenly appeared on his flank. They treated him in the same way as they did others. They built a plank road openly and crossed Chencang secretly. Most of today's battle strategies came from Xu Huizu's hand.
Li Jinglong had countless troops under his command, so why bother sending another army to attack the Yan army? Since he was not the one to take the risk, he happily agreed to Xu Huizu's request. This put Zhu Di into a desperate situation.
The army surged like a stormy sea. King Yan had five armies at the front, left, and right, and not all of them were surrounded by the enemy. But if they waited for them to break through the enemy's siege and come to save them, the corpses would probably be stiff. It is better to ask for help than to ask for yourself.
Zhu Di, who liked to charge into battle personally, mounted his horse to meet the enemy. He first fired arrows rapidly, and when all the arrows were used up, he then engaged in hand-to-hand combat with a pistol and a sword.
This battle was really miserable. Zhu Di's sword was broken, and three of his horses were replaced. The banner with the word "Yan" was studded with arrows from the Ming army, and the flag bearer shot one to death.
Change it to the seventeenth person. Fortunately, the flag holder also knows that this big flag is like a soul-calling flag at this moment. The target is too obvious, so he dare not get too close to Zhu Di, otherwise Zhu Di will have been pierced by thousands of arrows.
Heartbroken.
Zhu Di fought and retreated. Fortunately, he did not break into the enemy's line very far. After a bloody battle, he was able to retreat to the shore. Unexpectedly, just after Zhu Di's rear army was safe, the two evil stars of Qu Neng appeared again.
"The situation is over!" King Yan Zhu Di exclaimed when he saw this scene.
"God help me!" Li Jinglong was so excited when he saw this scene that he immediately ordered, waved his flag, and issued a general attack order. The Ming army immediately swarmed in like a tide, ready to defeat the drowned dog.
"Your Highness! Your Highness! You can't do anything about it. Please break out of the encirclement immediately, return to Peiping, and plan later!"
Zhang Yu was covered in blood, with a wolf-fang arrow on his shoulder. He ran to Zhu Di with blood on his face. Zhu Di smiled miserably and said: "Shimei, all my family wealth is here. Once this battle is defeated, I will be left in Peking."
What can tens of thousands of old, weak and disabled soldiers do?"
Zhang Yu gritted his teeth and said: "Then, the last general will lead his troops to resist the enemy. Your Highness, who has a body of thousands of gold, can no longer take risks. Please try your best to retreat to the shore, and wait for my left army and right army to come for reinforcements, which may give you a chance of survival."
He didn't know whether his strategy was feasible. Now that he was in danger, he had to give it a try before he would be willing to accept it. So he immediately dismounted his horse and ran towards the long embankment. Zhang Yuqi asked: "Your Highness, what are you going to do?" He was afraid that King Yan would not be able to think about it, so he hurriedly chased after him.
Go up.
King Yan climbed onto the long embankment, holding a riding crop in his hand, waving to the distance. His posture was stable, and his waving movements were extremely calm. Under the sun, that posture and movement... Well, everyone is familiar with it, right?
Li Jinglong was fully clothed and holding a silver gun in his hand. He just wanted to kill King Yan with his own hands. He rushed forward excitedly. Suddenly he saw King Yan boarding the long embankment and waving to the distance with a riding whip. Li Jinglong was startled at first, and then his face changed drastically.
: "No, King Yan has an ambush here!"
He had personally experienced the majesty of King Yan's five-thousand-faced three-guard elite riding on the company. If these cavalry were waiting for work at the moment, lying in ambush next to them, and suddenly the killer came out, it would not be Zhu Di who died, but Li Jinglong.
Li Jinglong made a decisive decision and immediately waved his horse's head and shouted: "Retreat! The whole army retreats! There is an ambush in Yan Ni!" After saying that, he ignored it, rode ahead, and rode away...
※※
Excellent, once again demonstrated his excellent IQ.
All the generals under Li Jinglong were sent out, and no one was around to give him advice. It was probably too late to give him advice, because Li Jinglong was always "killing decisively" when he fled, and did not give any chance to his enemies or comrades.
of.
Li Jinglong rolled up his flag and fled. The rest of the troops did not know what was going on. They only knew that there was an ambush ahead and gathered their troops to fend off the powerful enemy. When the two sides distanced themselves, Li Jinglong stood outside the Three Arrows Land, far away. At this time, the fog had already formed.
After they dispersed, his vision was very clear, and he did not notice any more soldiers appearing around Zhu Di.
"Could it be... that I was deceived?"
Li Jinglong observed carefully for a moment and saw that the Yan army was hurriedly collecting troops and forming a defensive formation. As expected, there was no reinforcement. He couldn't help but became angry and immediately ordered: "Attack! Attack with all your strength, swear to kill Zhu Di!"
The Ming army received instructions from their commander and was about to launch another fierce attack. At this time, dust was flying in the distance. The army was riding on the billowing smoke, like a long dragon walking along the embankment, and rushed over quickly. Zhu Di's reinforcements finally arrived. This support
The army is none other than the Duoyan Three Guards Jingqi that Zhu Di regarded as his treasure, and the leader is his second son Zhu Gaoxu.
With this elite cavalry, even if the Yan army could be defeated, it would be difficult to capture and kill the King of Yan in front of the battle line. Li Jinglong, who missed the opportunity, was furious and shouted: "Attack, attack with all, kill the Yan rebels for the sake of our country."
He asks for credit!”
After saying that, with a face as red as blood from shame, Tima rushed forward, panting and carrying the big flag. The flag-bearer, who had just run back to the military camp and hadn't even bothered to take a breath, heard the commander's order and hurriedly opened the big flag.
He raised the flag, waved it in a circle, and ordered the three armies to attack. Then he spread his legs and ran forward after Li Jinglong's horse.
"Brother, let me help you carry it for a while!"
Yue Junhong smiled at the flag-bearer, and without waiting for a reply, he hung up his saber and snatched the handsome flag from the flag-bearer.
"Thank you, brother Junhong, you... you don't understand the flag language, so follow me closely. When the commander issues an order, he must inform the three armies at any time."
"Okay!" Yue Junhong responded with a smile, picked up the big flag and ran. Last night, he had tampered with the big flag. What he wanted to do now was just to cause the tampered area to take effect. As he ran,
He had untied the tampered copper hoop on the flagpole without leaving a trace.
"Order, Pingbao'er and Qu Neng, trap the Yan army's cavalry! Order, Xu Huizu, Pingbao'er, Qu Neng will form a formation behind them, blocking the Yan cavalry's retreat!"
Li Jinglong ordered angrily.
He ran to a stone's throw away from the Yan army and stopped. When the opponent was not a drowned dog but a dog that was about to jump over the wall in a hurry, he absolutely adhered to the safety concept of "a son of rich wealth cannot sit down in court". The flag bearer
After hearing Li Jinglong's instructions, he immediately grabbed the big flag from Yue Junhong and waved it. The big flag was flying in the wind. The flag bearers and buglers of each battalion of the Ming army were staring at the flags from the army. The handsome flag with the word "Li" clicked.
,broken!
The big flag was broken very immorally. It was broken close to the base of the flag. If it had only been broken into a small section, it would have been better to put it up again. But if it was broken into such a short section, who would get it if it was lifted up?
The flag bearers of each camp of the Ming army were stunned. What does it mean to bring down the flag?
One is to surrender, the other is to die in battle!
It is impossible for Cao Guogong to surrender at this time, that is... the coach died in the battle.
This is not impossible. Arrows are flying all over the sky, and the coach is not blessed by gods and Buddhas in the sky. If he accidentally gets an arrow...
After waiting for a while, the commanding battalion still did not put up the commanding flag. The flag bearers of each battalion played flags one after another, informing the generals: Li Jinglong...is hung up!
In fact, there is no need for them to raise flags. Other flags may be more complicated and ordinary soldiers will not understand them. But when the flag is brought down, who doesn’t understand what it means? The Ming army suddenly made a noise, and even one person gasped in the hundreds of thousands of troops.
A breath of air-conditioning, combined together, is an earth-shattering thunderbolt.
King Zhu Di of Yan was overjoyed when he saw his son arriving with a new force. He quickly put on a horse, raised his gun and mounted, and was about to fight again. Suddenly he heard a movement in the opponent's camp. When Dingqing left, Li Jinglong's flag disappeared. Zhu Di was stunned for a moment.
, then knowing that the opportunity was not lost, he immediately shouted loudly: "Li Jinglong died in battle, the Ming army was defeated, the Ming army was defeated!"
Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and others reacted unequivocally, shouting in response. At that moment, the Yan army shouted in unison: "Li Jinglong died in battle, the Ming army was defeated!"
The sound was like thunder, loud and loud.
The generals of the Ming army were suspicious, the soldiers were panicked, and when people's hearts were already extremely unstable, as soon as they heard loud shouting from the Yan army camp, some of the courageous people turned around and fled. This kind of thing will spread like the plague.
, although the generals of the Ming army reacted quickly, attacked the deserters, quickly killed many people, and stopped the whole army from moving, the Yan King Zhu Di, who was good at catching fighter opportunities, did not wait for them to collapse without attacking. Instead, he shouted,
A full-scale attack was launched. This time, with thousands of Yanjing cavalry brought by Zhu Gaoxu as the vanguard, they rushed straight into Li Jinglong's army camp.
The Ming army was in panic and had no fighting spirit. Once it was overwhelmed, its original intention to escape immediately turned into action. This defeat was like the collapse of Mount Tai, and no one could stop it.
Qu Neng and his son were originally at the forefront, so they were the first to fall into the Yan army's siege, just like the Yan King was besieged by them just now. However, the Yan King Zhu Di had an enemy commander who was as stupid as a pig, and he also had a son who was brave and good at fighting.
They came to reinforce, but they were just the opposite. The father and son, with thousands of troops and horses, were overwhelmed by the left and right. No matter how brave he was, he could not support himself alone. He was quickly beaten to death by the Yan army's cavalry in the raging torrent of charge.
Yu Tongyuan, Teng Ju and other Ming generals originally wanted to fight again, but the morale of the army was no longer able to do so. If they hesitated for a moment, they would not be able to run away. The Duoyan cavalry passed by the camp and killed everyone they saw, regardless of whether they were soldiers or generals. Yu Tongyuan,
Teng Ju and other generals also lost their lives to the rebel army one after another. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the other Ming generals had no choice but to take their own troops and flee in panic.
The veteran general Wudinghou Guo Ying who came from Baoding to join the battle was so angry that he almost vomited blood when he saw the inexplicable defeat of the Ming army. He immediately gathered his troops and fled. This old man probably hated Cao Guogong to death, so he directly
He led his soldiers and horses to flee west and returned to Baoding. He was too lazy to talk nonsense with Li Jinglong, a loser.
In this defeat, more than 100,000 people were drowned and killed by the Ming army, and their bodies were scattered for more than a hundred miles. It was really horrific.

In the small room at Dezhou Pier, Xia Xun said to several of his subordinates: "The troops who rushed to Jinling in advance have paved the way for us. Xu Shiling, Zhang Jun, Jiang Mengxiong, and Wang Guanyu, the relevant tasks have been clearly explained to you.
Yes, the four of you hurry over now."
"Master Xia, what about you?"
Xia Xun's name in Feilong Secret Agent is Xia Xun. All Feilong Secret Agents only recognize this name and know that this person is their supreme leader. This can be regarded as a disguised nostalgia for Xia Xun's original self.
Right. So when his subordinates address him, they all call him Mr. Xia. Only a few of them really know that he has another name named Yang Xu.
"His Highness is plotting against Dezhou. I will use the manpower here to respond internally. When the time comes, my identity will inevitably be exposed. Then I will transfer to Jinling. From then on, we will take root in Jinling. When the time comes, I will contact you.
Contact. Therefore, you must be careful in everything. Remember, when you go to Jinling, you will go on separate roads. After you get there, the four of you are not allowed to communicate with each other horizontally, and you are not allowed to inform each other of your lurking identities.
You and your subordinates are also in direct contact one after another to ensure that no matter where there is a delay, they will not be harassed by the imperial court. Although the power of the Jinyiwei is now extremely weakened and can hardly leave the gate of Jinling City, Baizu
The insects are dead but not stiff. In Nanjing City, they still have hands and eyes that can reach the sky, and they must not be careless."
"I understand the humble position!"
Xu Shiling, Zhang Jun, Jiang Mengxiong, and Wang Guanyu bowed their hands solemnly.
Xia Xun is arranging for the capable personnel of Feilong secret agent to rush to Jinling. He is doing this because during the four years of Jingnan, the Ming army changed its generals several times, and it was impossible for him to have a way to insert spies every time a general was changed.
Besides, the information obtained by the army is very time-sensitive. Once the information is obtained, it may not be sent out in time, and after it is sent out, there may not be time to respond. If the intelligence can be placed in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, it will be solved once and for all. It must be noted that the army at the front has no regard for tactics.
No matter how it changes, strategically, they must obey the arrangements of the capital, or promptly report their strategic arrangements to the capital.
If he had his own eyes and ears in this critical place, then King Yan would be able to understand the court's strategic deployment at any time. As for the specific use of tactics, did King Yan Zhu Di still need his guidance?
Of course, this reason sounds high-sounding and is actually reasonable, but... the main reason why Xia Xun made this decision is that he does not remember who the Ming army's rebel general was after the battle in Texas.
, let alone which city the rebellious coach is stationed in. He can't follow others to set up an information station every time after the dust has settled. If so, I'm afraid he hasn't built it yet.
They have moved away long ago.
He really doesn't remember these detailed data. At first, he just thought of them as historical stories, and he took them as he pleased. Now there is neither Baidu nor Goodle. Where do you ask him to look it up?
After sending the four people out, Xia Xun gave a few more earnest instructions, and was about to let them leave when he suddenly saw Xu Jiang hurriedly walking from a distance.
: "Sir, your highness has won a great victory!"
Xu Jiang couldn't hold back his excitement, and his voice was trembling slightly. Xia Xun's eyes moved and he hurriedly said: "Calm down, let's go into the house." When the four close subordinates who were about to leave heard that King Yan had won a great victory, they also
They all came back with surprises on their faces.
At this time, the girl in the next room brought a wooden basin out to fill the water. She saw five men happily following the rabbit husband into the hut. Her eyes widened immediately. This time, she didn't
Envious and jealous, she just stood there blankly for a long time. Then she exclaimed like a god and returned to the room with inexplicable admiration.
She was convinced and convinced!
: I don’t accept it! How can I lose if I work so hard? I ask all my friends for the last one this month!
