Yong Ming knew how difficult that period was. If it were not for the courage of his ancestors, I am afraid that the Yong clan would not have developed as much as it did later.
Then you will not have the opportunity to display your ambitions and realize your ideals in life.
Yong Ming was grateful for the achievements of his ancestors, and he was more considerate of their difficulties.
Back then, our ancestors led their clansmen and subordinates to move and trek across the land of China with difficulty. During this period, they went through several battles and annihilated all the lawless people who were following and trying to rob the clansmen.
Among them, there was even a cavalry unit from the Yuan Dynasty that met them on a narrow road.
For their own safety and to avoid exposing their whereabouts, the strategy adopted by Yongming's ancestors against the enemies they encountered along the way was two words - annihilate them all.
Kill all these enemies and leave no one behind. This is not the time to show mercy to your enemies and show mercy.
As the "heads" of the tribe and the "backbone" of their subordinates, Yongming's ancestors must not play with the lives of their tribe and subordinates.
Although, the regular army of the Yuan Dynasty that they met face to face was quite large, almost 2,000 strong.
However, because the Yuan Dynasty had already determined the overall political situation south of the Yangtze River at that time, this cavalry unit was obviously a unit retreating to the north.
Because there are no more combat missions, the discipline of this army is very loose.
The team of two thousand people, far apart from the beginning to the end, was almost the size of a march of five thousand people.
Among the team were not only the women, cattle and sheep that had been robbed, but also dozens of large and small carriages carrying the stolen property, making a lot of noise.
Seeing this cavalry team of the Yuan Dynasty, which was loosely formed and not very vigilant, Yongming's ancestors decided to eliminate them.
This was because they had a good opportunity to annihilate the enemy, and the second was because this was an army that went south to attack the Song Dynasty, and their hands were stained with the blood of the soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty.
Driven by the dual factors of national hatred and family hatred, Yongming's ancestors were still determined to have a decisive battle with this regular army of the Yuan Dynasty, even though the opponent's troops were superior.
Although, after experiencing the tragic battle of "Yashan Sea Battle", the three troops of "Yongwang Guard" were already in a situation of "removing two to save one", and most of the personnel were lost.
But it still has 500 cavalry and 1,000 infantry, a total of 1,500 people.
Facing the enemies who have become arrogant and in disgrace after experiencing victory, they are struggling to find a place to survive. The united "Yongwang Guards" are not afraid of them.
After careful arrangements, they quickly seized favorable terrain before the enemy discovered them, and waited until all the enemies entered the ambush circle.
Yongming's ancestors issued the order to launch a general attack, and the "Yongwang Guards", spearheaded by the main forces of the "Yongshi Four Davids", suddenly surrounded this Yuan Dynasty cavalry force.
Under the tacit cooperation of infantry and cavalry in the offensive, the Yuan Dynasty cavalry force, which was caught off guard and suffered a violent blow, quickly lost its resistance and became completely defeated.
After a desperate battle, all the more than 2,000 Yuan Dynasty cavalry troops under its generals were annihilated by the "Yongwang Guards", and no one escaped.
However, the heroic "Yongwang Guards" also paid the price of more than 300 casualties, which shows the intensity of this war.
After this battle, the "Yongwang Guard" captured a large number of war horses, carriages and supplies and equipment, and obtained a good supply.
Yongming's ancestors distributed some of the gold and silver fines collected from the carriages to the plundered women, allowing them to return to their homes.
Then, half of the carriages were vacated so that the more seriously wounded soldiers who had been injured in the battle could ride and recover.
At the same time, the elderly, women and children of the tribe were also allowed to get into the carriage to alleviate their difficulty in traveling long distances.
After meeting the needs of the "Yongwang Guard" subordinates for war horses, some excess war horses were allocated to the tribesmen for riding.
In this way, many tribesmen no longer have to follow the team on foot.
With these war horses, they can greatly speed up the team's progress when riding in turns.
With the capture of these war horses, all the infantry of the "Yongwang Guard" became cavalry.
Yongming's ancestors sent out a team of 300 people to clean up the entire battlefield and bury the bodies of the annihilated Yuan Dynasty cavalry soldiers and generals.
From then on, this Yuan Dynasty cavalry unit of more than 2,000 people disappeared in the long river of history, as if they had never been in this world.
On the battlefield, there are many situations like this, and some of them died due to accidents or fell into the water and drowned, causing some troops and personnel on both sides of the enemy to disappear for unknown reasons.
In war history records, such a situation is simply explained by the cold words "missing" or "unaccounted for".
The fresh life was taken away by a few strokes and disappeared silently into the world, which shows the cruelty and ruthlessness of war.
Yongming's ancestors took their subordinates to find a suitable place and began to bury these comrades who died heroically in the battle.
Looking at these former comrades who have been sleeping on this land since then, everyone's heart is painful.
At this time, Yongming's ancestor made a speech to his subordinates, which was faithfully recorded by his personal attendants and scribes.
After reading these impassioned words from the literature, even after hundreds of years, Yong Ming still felt excited after reading them.
I only hope that the Chinese land can expel the Tartars and restore China as soon as possible, so that the loyal souls of these warriors can be comforted.
Yong Ming's ancestors decided to leave these subordinates who died on the battlefield here. Where on the land of China cannot they bury their loyal bones?
Their blood dyed this land red, and they died fighting here, so let them continue to protect the mountains, rivers and vegetation here after death.
With deep sorrow, after burying the subordinates who died in the battle, Yongming's ancestors took their tribe and subordinates to embark on the road of seeking survival again.
The "Yongwang Guards" who are starting their journey again have horses to ride. After the baptism of this bloody battle, these warriors have cleared their gloomy mood and their morale has been greatly boosted.
After leading their tribesmen and subordinates to Anqiu to settle down, Yongming's ancestors and even the successive Yong clan chiefs focused their energy on the survival and development of the entire clan.
For the long-term plan, the "Yongwang Guard", which was a sharp sword for slaying demons and demons, put away its edge and began to lie dormant with the Yong clan.
While the ancestors of the past generations worked hard to conquer the crisis of the times, overcoming obstacles and forging ahead, focusing on creating a world for the whole clan and subordinates to survive, this mysterious device did not have the energy to activate it if it was properly protected.
