To the west and north, the two princes were ambushed. Where was the British prince in Annan?
Annan, Duobang Pass.
At this time, the Ming army had already entered the city, and the city was in a state of disarray. Many houses with bamboo and wood structures were still burning with flames or filled with smoke.
After Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, died of illness, the British Duke Zhang Fu temporarily took over the post of General to conquer the barbarians and temporarily took charge of the three armies. After some time, Emperor Yongle issued an order and he was officially appointed as the General to Conquer the Barbarians. During this period, he had already done so.
Zhang Fu, who had made various preparations, immediately sent troops to attack Annan.
Zhang Fu knew very well that he was young and had little prestige. The emperor did not immediately issue an order to officially promote him to the post of General of the Conquest of Yi after receiving the news of Zhu Neng's death. He must have some doubts about his ability, and the generals in the army would also
With this kind of worry, when Zhu Neng just passed away, he began to make various preparations for himself to serve as the commander-in-chief.
He carefully collected all military, political and economic information about Annan, the complex mountain and geographical situation, and the characteristics of Annan's military use. He also paid attention to making friends with generals at all levels, maintained good relations with them, simulated and formulated military plans to attack Annan, and served as Emperor Yongle's official appointee.
Zhang Fu, who had just issued the order and was confident, raised his tent to gather the generals, issued a series of general orders, and used troops against Annan.
This speed was beyond the expectations of all the soldiers. Everyone thought that he would have a process of understanding the inside and outside, and the Annan people were no exception, so they were caught off guard. Zhang Fu sent troops from Guangxi and ordered Mu Sheng
Mengzi sent troops to bravely enter Annan. The Annan Li clan was panicked for a while. They sent all their troops and two million men to participate in the defense. They also sent trusted troops to garrison in the most dangerous areas and used the special environment of the jungle to carry out guerrilla warfare.
, they built countless defensive fortresses, dug trenches, and planted bamboo thorns in the trenches. The Vietnamese troops carrying poisonous crossbows, fire blunderbuss, and huge rocks hid deep in the jungle and battlefields, and the city gates were connected for more than 900 miles.
On the waterway, countless wooden piles were laid along the coast to prevent the Ming army from landing. At the same time, they used their strengths in water warfare to send countless warships with the intention of inflicting heavy losses on the Ming army on the water. They were killing each other step by step on land, and heavy troops gathered on the water.
This was a battle with the most complex environment, the longest strategic depth, and the largest number of people participating in the resistance that the Ming army had ever encountered.
In Li's view, their defense was already impregnable, but they still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Ming army and this Ming general whose reputation had never been heard before. Before Zhang Fu set off, he had sent countless spies to sneak into Annan and spread the word everywhere.
The leaflet exposed the Li family's crime of usurping the throne, and preached that the army of the Celestial Dynasty rises and falls in succession. At the invitation of Prince Chen, he came to help the Annan army and people. This trick really worked. Along the way, the people saw the Ming army coming.
, did not flee in panic, and even sent water and meals to the army, and were very friendly to the Ming army.
Many civilian officials and military generals of the Chen Dynasty in Annan completely gave up resistance and instead joined the Ming army. The civilian officials helped the Ming army manage the land and people they occupied along the way. The generals led an uprising and took advantage of their influence on Annan.
Knowing that he acted as the vanguard of the Ming army, stormed the camp, and recruited Pao Ze, the Ming army was instantly invincible.
On the land, with the help of the Annan Army who had joined the Ming Dynasty and were also familiar with every plant and tree in Annan and skilled in jungle guerrilla warfare, the countless death traps laid by Li's army lost their effectiveness.
It is an extremely sharp weapon in jungle warfare. However, because there were Annan troops who surrendered to the Ming army, and under their treatment, the number of casualties of the Ming army was very few.
The Vietnamese army had 37,390 heads and countless prisoners. On the waterway, the two sides fought two decisive battles on the Fuliang River. In the first battle, 10,000 Annan naval forces were annihilated and more than 100 warships were captured.
In the second battle of Annan, all naval forces were mobilized. As a result, the Ming army killed tens of thousands of Annan's navy, and the Fuliang River was stained with blood and turned red. They also captured Fan Yuan, Annan's official minister.
Lan, the minister of Dali Temple, Ruan Feiqing and other senior officials were all close confidants of the Li family.
Subsequently, Zhang Fu's target was directed at Duobang Pass, an important military town in Annan. After preparing the siege equipment, Zhang Fu ordered the siege at the fourth watch of the day. The governor Qianshi Huang Zhongqian once escorted Prince Chen of Annan back to his country, but was captured by the Annan soldiers.
Surrounded by him, he watched helplessly as they sent men to rush into his military camp, kill the prince of the Chen family who was under his protection, and flee. This was a great shame and humiliation. This time, he acted as a vanguard, vowing to avenge this shame, and with the honor of the governor, he went into battle shirtless.
, wave the army in front.
His trusted generals and commander Cai Fu rushed to the front of all the soldiers. The morale of the three armies was greatly boosted and their courage was unstoppable. In just a few hours, the Annan Army broke through Duobang Pass, a military town that the Annan Army thought was indestructible, and entered the city.
middle.
Cai Fu took the lead in entering the city and engaged in street fighting with the Annan soldiers. As the Annan soldiers were retreating, they suddenly shouted and fled in all directions using their familiarity with the buildings in the city. Cai Fu just advanced step by step, eliminated the resistance, and occupied the city.
While marching, I suddenly heard the sound of a trumpet and thought that the Annan soldiers were about to launch a counterattack again, so I quickly ordered my troops to be on guard.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a while, neither the Annan soldiers rushed out nor the cold arrows and poisonous arrows were fired. Just when they were confused, they suddenly felt the earth shaking, countless rough and powerful howls rose into the night, and the two bamboo buildings in front of them were suddenly knocked down.
, then two giant elephants strode forward with their long trunks swinging. On the elephants' backs was a square-shaped object that looked like a bamboo basket. They used this as a cover, and someone was hiding inside to direct the activities of the war elephants.
This elephant is extremely huge. Its skin is rough and its flesh is thick and it is difficult to injure its vital parts. With just one foot of its huge elephant foot in this alley, it is afraid that it will trample to death several Ming soldiers, armed with crossbows, daggers, and spears.
Under the pressure of these huge war elephants, the Ming army had to retreat steadily. A large area of the city that had just been captured by the Ming army was quickly recovered by the Annan soldiers under the attack of the war elephants.
A large number of thin and black Annan soldiers were hiding behind the war elephants [Jinyi Tieba sketch], like soldiers advancing on tanks. Seeing that the Ming army was helpless against the war elephants, they couldn't help but feel proud and babbled.
Annan kept saying something.
At this time, Zhang Fu, Huang Zhong and others also entered the city. Upon hearing this situation, Zhang Fu, who had been prepared for long time, immediately sent a new army. The Annan soldiers were driving their elephants forward triumphantly, and suddenly they saw the Ming army camp opposite.
Many firecrackers spewed out, the firecrackers fired in unison, the sound was like thunder, the bullets rained down, and the smoke filled the air. The war elephant of the Annan soldiers was in pain and uneasy after taking the bullet, even under the constant urging of the animal trainer.
Unwilling to continue moving forward, countless lions emerged from the Ming army camp.
Seeing this scene, the war elephant immediately turned around and ran like crazy. Four giant pillar-like elephant legs moved forward, trampling the thin and small Annan soldiers into a pulp, and followed closely behind the war elephant.
The Annan soldiers were dumbfounded. They were too hasty to react and were trampled to death by the elephants. The Ming army chased after the elephants and killed them all the way out of the Duobang Pass. They pursued for dozens of miles and killed the Annan soldiers close to them.
Fifty thousand, Annan's famous generals Liang Minyou, Ji Bole and others were all killed by the Ming army in this battle.
It turned out that Annan general Jian Ding, who had joined the Ming Dynasty, had known how powerful the war elephant was in his own tactics, so after joining the Ming Dynasty, he proposed a plan to Zhang Fu and found a skilled painter to draw many portraits of lions.
On the cloth, and then on the horse, the fire cannon was fired, and thick smoke billowed. As soon as the war horse covered with the lion's face rushed out, looming like a lion, the war elephant formation immediately defeated the attack.
Duobang Pass, an important military town in Annan, fell into the hands of Zhang Fu. Zhang Fu rode on his horse and gave an order with high spirits: "Annan relies on nothing more than this city. Once this city is pulled out, it will be like a broken bamboo. Today is the day for a man to serve the country and make meritorious service."
, order the three armies to rest for a while and then continue to advance. At the same time, report the victory again to the emperor and ask for rewards for the meritorious soldiers!"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Drums and horns roared, and people and horses surged.
The Tatar cavalry attacked one after another from all directions. With Qiu Fu's bravery and elite troops, they broke out in all directions, but they could never break out.
The conflicting Tatar cavalry were all over the snowfield, and the shouts of killing were like a stormy sea. Countless bones had fallen on the snow and were trampled into mud. Qiu Fu's sweat was soaked through his heavy clothes and his robes were stained with blood. The cone-shaped assault formation he organized had already
The attack by the Tatar army has now turned into a complete melee. Even Qiu Fu's personal soldiers were cut into pieces by the pursuing and fighting Tatar cavalry, and were beaten to pieces, with not much left.
Wang Cong, the Marquis of Wucheng, had died in battle, and Li Yuan, the Marquis of Anping, was wounded all over his body and had a broken arm. He was protected by several soldiers and followed closely behind Qiu Fu's horse, swaying like a fallen leaf in the cold wind.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
There are very few of the two thousand men and horses Qiu Fu brought out, and there are less than thirty horses still with him. His eyes are red, and he keeps waving his sword, which has been cut into pieces by him.
The blade was full of meat, and he didn't know how many people had been killed.
He regrets! He regrets that he should not have listened to the loyal advice of Wang Cong and Li Yuan. If he had listened to their advice earlier and joined with his 100,000 soldiers, with the strength of the Tatars, he would have dared to launch a decisive battle of 100,000 soldiers. He hates it.
! I hate that I should not be so greedy for profit. As a general, every move is mixed with so many utilitarian purposes. If he could calm down a little and not be attracted by the bait of Benya Shili, how could he not see anything fishy?
Are people led by the nose and stepping into the trap step by step? There are roads everywhere in this snowy field. Even if there are a hundred thousand troops, it is difficult to form an encirclement. If his soldiers are not driven by him to pursue and kill day and night, no matter whether they are men or horses,
Exhausted, why are you trapped here and unable to break out?
He is a sinner!
"kill!"
Qiu Fu slashed a Tatar cavalry man on the head with his sword again. The blade was curled up, almost like a mace, and it was like cracking the man's head. He was about to lift his horse to jump over the enemy corpse, but unexpectedly,
The BMW was tired from fighting for a long time. Suddenly, the horse stumbled and fell to the ground, throwing Qiu Fu out.
Qiu Fu rolled on the ground several times and finally stood up. He heard a faint "Woo" sound, and a Tatar cavalry who couldn't miss the opportunity rushed forward, and the scimitar in his hand was slashed in the air like a horse.
"Break out of the encirclement! The three armies will withdraw quickly, take the way to Liaodong, and return to the pass!"
The soldiers who were eager to rescue were all tightly entangled by the Tatar soldiers and could not get close. Qiu Fu fought hard with his sword and issued his last order as the commander.
The Tatar soldier took advantage of the horse's momentum and struck out three times in a row. Qiu Fu staggered a step with each strike. Qiu Fu's arms were weak when the three strikes were struck. The sword flew away from his hand. The Tatar cavalry's cold and sharp sword
The light followed him like a shadow, and came with a wind like Yin Lei. Qiu Fu could no longer retreat. He took one last look at his subordinates who fought bloody battles, and shouted: "I hate it so much!"
The sound fell, the head rose, and a burst of blood rose into the sky!
