Besides, Nikan knew that the Ming army was coming from Pinggu City, and he was very surprised that he had missed it a few days ago, but now he unexpectedly arrived at his door without knowing whether he was dead or alive. Feeling angry but also happy, he brought five thousand cavalry and joined forces with Obai to go forward.
Nearing the Chaobai River in the middle of the afternoon, the Ming army's scouts and horses encountered each other. After the two armies fought, they left and reported. Nikan sneered and asked Obai: "Should we defeat them in one fell swoop or rest for a while?"
Obei looked arrogant and disdainful: "It can be defeated in a snap of a finger, but if Lord Beile wants to relieve his hatred, it is not too late to rest for a while and then kill."
Nikan was not like a rude and brainless person like Azig. After a moment of reflection, he gave the order to rest for a while and cross the river to kill the enemy. He also ordered the scouting horse to keep an eye on the other side.
As soon as the military order was given, Tan Ma came galloping: "Master Beile, the Ming army is coming!"
Hold the grass! Being so proactive, Nikan and Oboi looked at each other in shock, and were so eager to die. How come this year, the Ming army, which has always been cowardly, has been so crazy that they have been acting out of common sense?
Five thousand cavalrymen of the Ming army crossed the river and came to fight. They all raised their bows and brandished their swords and howled with murderous intent. Nikan hurriedly ordered to fight. The Qing army mounted their horses in a hurry and looked a little embarrassed. Nikan was furious and led his soldiers into the battle. Aobai sat on the sidelines and watched for a while.
, seeing the two armies fighting in full force, he was very frightened and joined the battle group.
The Qing army's cavalry was fierce, but they were dragged up early in the morning and ran for thirty miles to fight again. It can be said that they were not in peak condition. On the contrary, the Ming army was different. Although they traveled all night, they slept for most of the morning and their physical strength was restored.
, coupled with Tang Tong's chicken blood, the morale is high. This is not the first time for his troops to fight against the Tatars, especially when they followed Chang Yu in the battle of Ningyuan a few months ago and severely beat the Qing army.
He is not fearful, on the contrary, he is very confident.
In addition, our own troops possess the strength and have backup, so the soldiers all believe that they have a good chance of winning. The unprecedented high morale is in sharp contrast with the fatigue of the Qing army. The rise and fall also offset the shortcomings of the Ming army's lack of combat power.
The two armies were killed so hard that it was difficult to see who was superior.
Seeing that it was difficult to distinguish, Nikan was furious, yelling and swearing, and killing those who were lazy and incompetent in an attempt to boost morale. He looked at Obai again, but saw that he was leading a group of soldiers to kill the main general of the Ming army. He thought that this fierce general was in charge.
We are already in an invincible position, let's see how long the Ming army can hold out.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, I suddenly heard shouts of killing coming from the south wing. I turned around and saw more than a thousand Ming troops coming to kill, most of them infantry. I was a little frightened. They were outflanking, just these few people?
Feeling that something was wrong, he raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that there was also a Ming army coming from the north, so he panicked. Although it meant that there were not many people outflanking the army, this posture was scary and could easily cause people to fight.
The soldiers were panicked.
Sure enough, the fighting Qing army panicked when they saw this formation, but the Ming army saw the wind and gained momentum, becoming more and more courageous as they fought.
Nikan gritted his teeth and stared, really angry and frightened. How could he allow himself to be defeated? Because he knew the consequences of defeat, so he once again led his own soldiers into the battle group, ordered the soldiers to take a step back and beheaded them without mercy. Under strict orders, the soldiers were killed.
The army was also angered. This was their first head-to-head confrontation with the Ming army after entering the pass. They had just been driven away outside the pass. Is it possible that they are still going to be beaten to death now? Where has the former majesty of the Qing cavalry gone?
Already?
The Ming army surrounded them, and the Tatars panicked and saw that they would not be defeated. Tang Tong was overjoyed, thinking that he was really going to become famous today, but before he could open his mouth, he saw that the exhausted Qing army suddenly seemed to be cheating.
He regained his health, put up a fight, and even regained his strength.
Tang Tong cursed secretly, thinking that if the cavalry on the two wings could easily restore your blood, you only have infantry at hand. He regretted that he had to bite the bullet and fight. The battle at this time was about morale. Whoever has the stronger momentum has a greater chance of winning. You can't see it with your eyes.
In the distance, a Tatar general with unparalleled bravery came to kill him. Tang Tong also got excited and led his soldiers to meet him. If he had a stable character, he would not take risks, but at this time, how could he show weakness if he was fighting for his morale?
.
Well done! Ao Bai couldn't help but feel happy when he saw Ming General coming forward without hiding. From Shuai Qi, he had known for a long time that the person coming was his old friend, Tang Tong, the commander-in-chief of Jizhen. Not to mention that he was far away.
The first time we fought was in Ningyuan.
Kill the dog head first to sacrifice the flag. The rise of Aobai killing can't control the relationship between Hauge and the little eunuch. He picked up the knife and rushed towards Tang Tong. When he was about to kill him, he heard several gunshots.
He suddenly felt severe pain in his body and fell off his horse. The soldiers were shocked to see the Ming army coming to rescue him desperately.
Tang Tong was as happy as a forty-year-old child when he saw Ao Bai fall off his horse. When he was outside the customs, Chang Yu gave him more than ten firearms. He said that these firearms were the most effective weapons in duels and sneak attacks. He made a note of them at that time and left them.
Two of the cannons are for personal use and the rest are for personal use.
He had seen Ao Bai's ferocity before and knew that he was no match for him in a one-on-one fight with a group, so...
More than ten firearms were fired at once, and Ao Bai was caught and fell from his horse. Then the Ming army shouted and beheaded the Tatar general. The Qing army was in an uproar. They also saw the chaos under Ao Bai's banner. They didn't know whether he was alive or dead. They were panic-stricken. However, the Ming army was there.
At this time, the morale was greatly boosted and he was howling loudly.
Cao, Nikan was also panicked when he saw Ao Bai fell from his horse. Seeing the Ming army's momentum like a rainbow, he thought of retreating and ordered the withdrawal.
The Qing army's cavalry advanced and retreated like the wind. Nikan ordered the troops to withdraw, and then dispersed and retreated several miles away. However, Tang Tong ordered not to pursue, because he knew that he did not have the strength to defeat this Qing army. He was just a draw or even the upper hand.
Neither of them can occupy it. At this time, chasing the enemy is afraid of being stuck in a stalemate and it will be difficult to escape, so it is better to wait and see.
Fortunately, Obai had armor to protect his body. The gunshot wound was not serious and he was not in danger of life, but because he had been a target before, the wounds were so many that he could no longer fight. Nikan looked at the Ming army on the river bank in the distance and gritted his teeth.
But he couldn't decide for a moment, whether to fight again, take a break and fight again, spend time with him, return troops, or ask for help...
The young man was too indecisive. Seeing that a veteran like Tang Tong was extremely decisive, he watched for a while and immediately ordered to go north along the river. He was going to Shunyi. At this time, he already felt that his judgment might be wrong. The situation in the capital was not what he expected.
I thought, if I am afraid that I will never come back if I go deep into the army alone, I should mainly stay on the sidelines for now. I happen to know that the nearby Shunyi has not yet fallen into the hands of the Tatars, so I go to seek refuge.
He came and left when he wanted. He was so disrespectful. When Nikan saw that the Ming army went north along the Chaobai River after waiting and watching, he immediately became furious and ordered a pursuit.
But Tang Tong is not afraid of him at all at this time. Although I don't have the strength to kill you, you can't do anything to me. What's more, the Ming army has just defeated a Qing general. The morale of the Qing army has been greatly boosted, and the troops have advantages, whether in strength or
In terms of momentum, they were slightly better than the Qing army. I was afraid of your request. When I saw Nikan chasing me, I turned around and fought again, retreated again, chased again, and fought again.
The two sides chased me for more than twenty miles without realizing it. Shunyi City was close to Chi Chi, and a group of hundreds of cavalry came to kill them. However, the defenders in the city came to support them.
Although Nikan was unwilling, he had no choice but to watch Tang Tong's troops enter Shunyi City. Only then did he realize that he had done something very stupid.
We were supposed to get out of camp and face a head-on attack, but instead of being hit with a bruised head and bleeding, we were dragged by the nose to the gate of Shunyi City. Not only were we tired, but it was already past noon, and we were so hungry that we couldn't eat.
.
"Tang Tong, the day we meet again will be the day when you will be crowned," Kan looked away from the city of Shunyi and left with a look of hatred on his face, but Tang Tong was wolfing down food in the county government office and couldn't hear him at all. (To be continued)
