After listening to Fan Kang's words, Jia Ke had the feeling of seeing the sun through the clouds. King Beijing had stayed in the court for so many years, and he knew all the secrets in the court. There was nothing wrong in following him.
Then Jia Ke thought again, it seemed that he couldn't have any interaction with this Xie Hu, otherwise he might be implicated in the end.
Next, Jia Ke ordered everyone to break out of camp. The army left the city through Desheng Gate. The army went out or returned triumphantly to enter and exit through Desheng Gate. This is already a common practice. I don’t know which dynasty or generation made the decision, but Desheng Gate has moral character.
The noble meaning symbolizes that the army is an army of benevolence and righteousness. Perhaps it is because of this that in order to seek good luck, the army enters and exits through the Desheng Gate.
Jia Ke led his army out of Desheng Gate and set up camp three miles outside the city gate. In order to prevent the Tatars from attacking during this period, Jia Ke led 20,000 cavalry in formation in front of the formation.
Unexpectedly, Jia Ke really got the news. As soon as they started setting up camp, tens of thousands of cavalry came out of the Tatar camp, led by Alslen Khan's general Meng He, and came to Jia Ke's camp, trying to
Wait for the opportunity to move.
Unexpectedly, when they came over, Jia Ke had already led his team to block their way.
Meng He led his men and horses to the opposite side of Jia Ke and took a closer look. He saw that all the soldiers on Jia Ke's side were wearing paper armor, and even the horses were wearing armor. Although it was the same as the original iron pagoda, it was much lighter and
Does not affect the speed of the war horse.
When Jia Ke saw Meng He coming, he urged his horse and danced his halberd to the front of the formation, and shouted to the Tatar camp: "Jia Ke is here in Xuanfu Town, who dares to come and fight me."
There was a commotion in the Tatar camp. Although some people had heard about Jia Ke's reputation, they had never seen his martial arts. They wanted to rush out and fight Jia Ke.
But Meng He, the commander-in-chief on the battlefield, waved his hand to stop these people from being reckless. When he came to the Central Plains this time, Meng He thought that Jia Ke would come to the capital to reinforce him, so he learned about Jia Ke privately from those who had fought with Jia Ke.
Ke’s specific combat power.
As a result, when those people heard the name Jia Ke, their faces turned pale. They all trembled and told him that Jia Ke was an invincible god.
Although Meng He felt that they were a bit exaggerated, he could not deny Jia Ke's martial arts. This time, he had no intention of fighting Jia Ke alone. Although doing so would damage the morale of his own side, it was better than being beaten by Jia Ke.
It's better to kill him without being able to fight back.
At the epicenter of the earthquake, Meng He shouted to Jia Ke, who was showing off his power on the battlefield: "Jia Ke, I know that you are superb in martial arts. But the general's leadership on the battlefield is not as brave as that of an ordinary man, so you don't need to be embarrassed there."
Then Meng He ordered his soldiers to start wandering around, looking for flaws in Jia Ke's army. Only then could they be killed with one blow.
Jia Ke did not show weakness and ran on the battlefield with his soldiers to protect the camp behind him.
Meng He wandered around the battlefield for a long time, but he didn't find any flaws in Jia Ke's cavalry, which surprised him. You must know that no matter how well the Central Plains cavalry is trained, it can't compare to those on the grassland who have been on horseback since birth.
skilled.
But Jia Ke and these people were able to confront him without showing any flaws for so long. These cavalrymen were no different from the elites on the grassland.
At this time, King Beijing, who was on the top of the city, saw this situation and couldn't help stroking his beard and nodding. It seemed that he had made the right choice this time. Among the troops who came to help, only Jia Ke's men could compete with the Tatars.
People duel.
While the two sides were wandering around like this, testing each other, the sound of horns suddenly came from the Tatar camp. It was Alslen Khan's order to retreat. In fact, Meng He had long wanted to retreat, because he was fighting with Jia Ke.
No flaw has been found in such a long confrontation, and there is no point in continuing the confrontation unless the two sides open up and have a hard fight. But this is exactly what Alsleng Khan cannot accept.
Meng He listened to the order and immediately ordered the troops to start retreating. He did not let the troops retreat in a swarm, but kept retreating in batches to cover each other.
Jia Ke originally saw the other side retreating and wanted to lead a charge to kill them, but seeing that Meng He was so cautious, he didn't have any flaws, so he could only monitor them from a distance, allowing Meng He to return to the camp intact.
Jia Ke watched the Tatar general retreat in an orderly manner without leaving a single flaw, and couldn't help but frown. It seemed that this battle was going to be a bit troublesome.
The Tatars have such a cautious general, and they will not lose much even if they are defeated. I am afraid that there will be no good way to suppress the Tatars in the Central Plains in the future. Finally, Jia Ke closed his eyes and thought about it, and he could only have the last solution.
That is, in the decisive battle tomorrow, rely on your own bravery to lead an army into the Tatar formation and cause them to turn upside down. This will not only delay the Tatar attack and retreat, but also give the Tatar trouble.
The morale of the army will be dealt a huge blow, and if possible, its generals will be killed.
Once the Tatars are in chaos, then their own side will be able to win.
Not long after the Tatars retreated, the talented troops and horses of the various military governors camped near him, guarding the troops in Xuanfu Town. Just now they had seen tens of thousands of Tatar cavalry galloping back and forth on the top of the city.
. They were so frightened that if they had left the city first, they might have been wiped out in just one move.
At the same time, they also saw the power of Jia Ke's army. It was indeed a well-known warrior. They did not expect that the cavalry in Xuanfu Town could confront tens of thousands of Tatar cavalry for such a long time without losing. In the end, they were forced to have no choice but to defeat the Tatar cavalry.
Retreat. This is completely different from the Central Plains cavalry they usually know. No wonder Jia Ke has won successive victories over the years, making the Tatars dare not invade Xuanfu Town.
In the whole morning, the various military governors set up camp around Jia Ke. However, Jia Ke and his cavalry did not return to the camp immediately, but still guarded them all around. This made these military governors who set up camp
It reassures them a lot.
After noon, King Beijing led his own soldiers into Jia Ke's military camp and went directly to the Chinese army's tent. Jia Ke had already set up a huge military tent for him here, surrounded by dozens of smaller tents.
The tent guarded the Chinese army's tent in it.
As soon as King Beijing entered the big tent, he immediately ordered people to beat drums and gather the generals. Soon, various military envoys came to the tent. There were eight military envoys coming to help this time, namely: Xie Hu, the governor of Liaodong Province (the commander-in-chief).
Liaodong's elite 120,000), Xuanfu Town's military governor Jia Ke (commanded 50,000 elite), Taiyuan's military governor Wang Zuo (commanded 35,000 troops), Baoding's military commander Chun Yuhua (commanded 35,000 troops)
, Qingzhou Jiedushi Huangling (commanded 20,000 horses), Laizhou Jiedushi Guo Min (commanded 15,000 horses), Shandong Commander Lin Feng (commanded 10,000 horses), Henan Commander Lu Bin (commanded 10,000 horses)
). These armies gathered together in one place, numbering about 300,000 people.
King Beijing was sitting in the middle of the tent. The eight towns' military envoys and general military officers were standing on both sides with their generals. At one time, there were dozens of generals standing in the tent.
King Beijing glanced at the generals majestically, and then said: "I command the three armies according to your majesty's decree. In the governor's battle against the Tatars, all generals must strictly abide by military orders. If you violate them, don't blame me."
No mercy."
All the generals raised their hands together and replied: "I dare not violate the orders of Commander-in-Chief Dingzun."
King Beijing nodded, "Just remember, go back and rest today, get up at the third watch tomorrow, eat at the fourth watch, and go out to fight at the fifth watch to defeat the enemy in one battle. Do you have any questions?"
Xie Hu, the governor of Liaodong Festival, went out to ask at this time, "I don't know how to arrange the troops tomorrow. Please let the commander know so that we can be prepared."
"Tomorrow the troops from Liaodong will be in the front, the troops from Taiyuan and Qingzhou will be on the left. The troops from Baoding and Laizhou will be on the right. The troops from Shandong and Henan will be in the rear. The troops from Xuanfu Town will follow me in the center.
What do you think, generals?" King Beijing squinted his eyes and looked at Xie Hu, the military governor of Liaodong.
Xie Hu was a little unhappy after hearing this. This time, his soldiers and horses were bearing the brunt. Even if they were victorious, they would suffer heavy losses. However, King Beijing had given orders in the tent, and he did not dare to disobey him. So he remained silent and returned to the squadron.
middle.
When the King of Beijing saw that Xie Hu did not refute, but instead returned to the class, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Jia Ke could see clearly from the side and admired Fan Kang's judgment in his heart. The King of Beijing was probably looking for Xie Hu.
Wrong, they want to seize his military power. He has only been in Beijing for a short time and doesn't know the whole story. But he only knows that King Beijing is the emperor's confidant. The person King Beijing wants to touch must be the one the emperor wants to get rid of.
Everyone was speechless for a while, and King Beijing asked all the military governors to go back to their own units to reorganize the army.
Early the next morning, the army had a good meal. King Beijing ordered all the troops to line up in front of the formation. He led the generals to the front of the formation and ordered the soldiers to go to attack the enemy and fight.
In the Tatar camp, Alslen Khan ordered his troops to loot everywhere in the past few days, and harvested countless grains, gold, silver, and slaves. However, the people of the Southern Dynasties did not dare to resist. In some villages, the entire population was wiped out by him.
.
Alsileng Khan thought that time was almost up. Enough supplies had been plundered this year, and reinforcements from the Southern Dynasties were coming in a steady stream. There were now 300,000 to 400,000 horses gathered. Although these soldiers and horses were vulnerable, they were still careful.
Especially Jia Ke from Xuanfu Town has also come. Alsileng Khan now has a phobia towards Jia Ke and he no longer wants to stay here.
Arsleng Khan originally thought that he would start to retreat within a day or two, but it backfired. On this day, he had just finished breakfast when his own soldiers came to report, "Great Khan, the Southern Dynasty troops have formed outside the camp, clamoring to fight with the Great Khan."
Khan fights to the death, please ask the Great Khan to decide."
Alsileng Khan frowned after hearing this. It seemed that the Southern Dynasty was ready for a decisive battle, and he wanted to fight or not.
If they do not go to war, the morale of the army will be low, and if they retreat with these supplies, the Southern Dynasty army will definitely follow and pursue them. Taking away so many supplies and people, they will move slowly. I am afraid that they will be scattered by the enemy.
If you go to war, it will be good if you win. With the power of victory, you can safely return to the outside of the pass and enjoy the fruits of this plunder. But if you lose, I am afraid that the wealth plundered this time will be very large.
Some of it can't be taken away.
Arslen Khan thought about it and finally decided to go to war. Firstly, the Tatars had no reason to avoid fighting. Secondly, even if they were defeated, they could escape with their fast horses, but they would only lose wealth and population.
This is no different from not fighting.
But Arsleng Khan still made preparations. He ordered his general Meng He to take tens of thousands of cavalry without going into battle, and immediately retreat northward with the wealth and population plundered this time. If he wins, it will naturally be very difficult.
He could catch up with them soon. If he was defeated, he could bring the remaining defeated generals to join Meng He and set up a battle formation to fight the Central Plains people.
After arranging the retreat, Alslen Khan ordered the horns to be blown, and the army assembled outside the camp.
At this time, King Beijing was wearing a golden helmet and gold armor, and he was waiting in front of the formation with dozens of generals. Suddenly, the gate of the Tatar camp opened wide, and countless cavalry poured out. Once these cavalry arrived in front of the formation, they also
The Mercedes stopped and roared to prevent the enemy from attacking.
Not long after, dozens of generals from the Tatar camp came to the front of the army, guarding a yellow umbrella.
Under the yellow umbrella, there was a young man who was handsome and powerful. Jia Ke smiled when he saw this man. In his opinion, this man was an old acquaintance. Who else could he be if he wasn't Alsileng Khan?
When King Beijing saw the opponent forming a formation, he looked to the left and right and asked: "The opponent has already formed a formation. Who dares to go up and challenge us to strengthen our army's power?"
A general flew out from behind Xie Hu. He saw this general with a golden helmet, gold armor and soap robes. He was carrying a square-shaped halberd. At first glance, he looked a bit similar to Jia Ke. This man was under Xie Hu's command.
General Luo Wang was quite powerful in the army.
Luo Wang came to King Beijing and said loudly: "The last general is incompetent, but I would like to take the lead."
The King of Beijing was overjoyed: "That's it, the general can go, and I will position the general to report his merits."
After hearing this, Luo Wang thanked him, rode his horse and danced his halberd to the front of the formation, and loudly called out to the formation: "I am Luo Wang, the general under the command of Liaodong Jiedushi. Who dares to come and fight with me?"
Alsileng Khan first saw a man with a golden helmet, making Fang Tian draw a halberd, and came out to challenge him. At that time, he was startled and thought it was Jia Ke. But now that he heard what he said, it turned out that he was just an unknown person.
. couldn't help but angrily said to his left and right: "This Southern Dynasty man thinks that he is invincible because he is dressed like Jia Ke. Who can take his life to satisfy the hatred in my heart." This Alsileng Khan was the one who
The Luo Wang in front of him acted as Jia Ke's substitute and wanted to take out his anger on him.
Bagan, one of the four horses among the Tatar generals, responded at this time: "The Great Khan, I will go and take his life, and come back to vent his anger on the Great Khan." After saying this, he clapped his horse and danced with his hammers until he came to the front of the formation.
.
In fact, on the surface, this Bagan wanted to take the lead in the battle to build up his prestige. In fact, he was cunning in his heart. The reason why he went out to fight first was that these people who had just come out were probably not all unknown rats.
None of them can survive.
But when Jia Ke went out for a period of time, he could have reason to say that he didn't have enough physical strength to retreat back to the formation. It would be much safer for him to let others fight against Jia Ke. This was also the last time he fought with Jia Ke, and he was intimidated by Jia Ke.
Arrived, so I came up with this idea this time.
Besides, Luo Wang's heart trembled when he saw a big man flying out from the opposite side, with a huge body and a huge body, wielding a pair of big hammers. In ancient times, those who can use hammers to fight are all powerful generals. He thought that he
Although he has some martial arts skills, he may not be a match against these extremely powerful people. But now that he is riding a tiger, he can only fight with his scalp for a few rounds.
