Chapter 23 The Great Victory

The chaos caused by the war horse is deadly.

More and more Ming army cavalry rushed into the left flank of the Northern Yuan cavalry, slashing bloody paths while waving their blades.The Northern Yuan cavalry was completely disrupted, cut into pieces one after another, and soon fell into the siege of Ming army infantry.

Unable to charge, the cavalry who had lost their speed faced a battle formation composed of spears and swords and halberds, and their only fate was to be slaughtered.

The drum sounded again at the top of the city, and the gate of the city was opened wide. Chen Heng, the commander of Beiping, who was wearing armor and holding a spear, personally led a cavalry to fight out from the city.

A veteran who has experienced many battles, his eyes are like a falcon, and he is best at grasping opportunities.

Xu Zhong, commander of Kaipingwei, watched Chen Heng charge into the battlefield with his horse, so he had to order drums and horns to be blown at the top of the city to cheer for the soldiers.At the same time, don't forget to keep an eye on the King of Gaoyang County, he must be optimistic, and nothing can go wrong.

Chen Heng is over sixty years old, but Wuwei is still the same as before.With a spear in hand, rushing into the Northern Yuan cavalry is like a tiger jumping into a flock of sheep, killing one when seeing one, and killing one pair when seeing two.Three is better, pierced through, in a bunch.

In less than a moment, the mountain armor on his body was already splattered with blood, and the cavalry who followed him were all like killing gods. Every time the spears and knives in their hands fell, there would always be a cloud of blood.Even the infantry of the Ming army around them were encouraged, and the shouts of killing shook the sky for a while.

In the era of cold weapons, the most courageous thing is to fight against others.Once the courage is gone, no matter how fierce the wolves are, they will become cattle and sheep at the mercy of others.

This is the truest portrayal of the Northern Yuan cavalry at this time.

There were tens of thousands of people when they came, and within half a day, thousands of people died under the firearms and battle formations of the Ming army.Coupled with the vicious cavalry of the Ming army, it is simply a fantasy to win, and whether they can escape is a problem.

The cavalrymen of the Northern Yuan Dynasty wanted to cry, but they just harvested grain and grass to store some food for the winter. Why is it so difficult?

The commander-in-chief who was still alive ordered the horn to be blown, and the fight could not be continued. If this continued, not only would he not be able to make any money, but he might not even be able to save his life.

Hearing the retreating horn of the Northern Yuan cavalry, the Ming army on the battlefield was immediately refreshed, and the offensive became more and more violent.The commander of the guards on the top of the city made Xu Zhong make a decisive decision, and all the frontier troops staying in the city attacked.

"The Tartars are leaving!"

The drums of the Ming army's attack and the horns of the Northern Yuan cavalry's retreat sounded almost at the same time.

Don't the poor come after them?

In the dictionary of the frontier army, there are no such four words.

It's not easy to have a chance to gain military exploits, even if you have two legs chasing four legs, you must work hard!

Under the blue sky and white clouds, on the vast grassland, the tartars who heard the call to retreat ran in front, and the Ming army brandishing swords, guns, swords and halberds chased after them. Fight for three hundred rounds!"

Hearing this, fools don't run away.

Are tartars fools?no.

Therefore, the trumpet sounded again, and the whole army accelerated.

The cavalry under Shen Xuan's command was the fastest, caught up with the last group of tartars, charged forward and slashed for a while, and continued to chase after killing them.This scene is like harvesting wheat, one stubble after another.

However, what was left in the wheat field was a piece of golden yellow, and where the horse's hooves stepped, it was the grass stained red with blood.

The Ming army's eyes were red, as if after being hungry for a long time, the wolves finally found their prey, and they would not let go after biting.

Rao Chen Heng, who had experienced many battles and killed people like hemp, couldn't help but feel cold when he saw Shen Xuan on the battlefield.

Killing God, this is the real Killing God!Even Shen Liang back then didn't see such fierceness.

"Commander, continue to chase?"

"Not chasing."

Chen Heng slammed the spear on the ground, stroked the long beard under his jaw, and looked intently.

He had seen countless heroes in his half life as a soldier, and Shen Xuan on the battlefield reminded him of two people, one was Chang Yuchun, king of Kaiping, and the other was Lan Yu, Duke of Liang.

He is also Marquis Wu who is brave enough to win the three armies, and a fierce general with unparalleled resourcefulness.

Chang Yuchun was responsible for the founding of the country, and he still enjoyed honor after his death.Lan Yu broke the royal court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but because of her arrogance, she was murdered and affected her relatives.

In Shen Xuan, he saw both Chang Yuchun and Lan Yu.

Is it a blessing or a curse?

Chen Heng called a personal guard, "Shen Guerrilla is from Yanshan Guard?"

"Returning to the command, Shen Guerrilla was once a hundred households of Yanshan Zuowei."

"kindness."

Chen Heng nodded, thinking of the secret letter sent by King Yan, he felt uneasy.

After the emperor's grandson ascended the throne, he reused civil servants, which has already caused dissatisfaction among some military officials.Qi Tai, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Huang Zicheng, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and others have played repeatedly, plotting to cut down the vassal.The matter is not confidential, not to mention King Yan, even King Xiang, King Ning, King Jin, etc. have also heard the news.

The king of Zhou was abolished, and the frontier army was released to serve the people, almost targeting the king of Yan everywhere.The kings will also hurt their kind with things, and everyone is in danger.

If things go on like this, how can the king of Yan sit still and wait for death, what will happen to the emperor?

Chen Heng frowned deeply, loyal?still……

When returning to the city, he passed by Meng Qinghe's guarded watchtower, saw a strange bunker on the mountain, and saw more than a dozen blood-stained frontier soldiers sitting at the foot of the mountain, Chen Heng's heart moved, he stepped forward on his horse, and asked, "Are you the defender here?"

Meng Qinghe was resting with his eyes closed. The wounds on his arms and shoulders were numb from the pain. The lack of strength and blood loss made him dizzy. If he didn't hold on, he might faint immediately.The same goes for Ding Xiaoqi and others surrounding him, otherwise, how could they stay here and not follow the army to chase the Tartars.

Everyone was so tired that no one answered Chen Heng's question.

The guards at the side saw that these frontier soldiers ignored the commander's questioning, and immediately scolded: "Bold! How dare you not respond to the commander's questioning!"

The sound was like thunder, and Meng Qinghe had to open his eyes cleverly.The first thing you see is the strong legs of the horse, then the two big nostrils breathing hot air, and then upwards is a general sitting on horseback.

Shan Wenjia, a bright helmet, a spear, and a long gray beard.

I haven't seen it, but they are all commanders and envoys. They are of the second rank and have great officials.

Supported by his uninjured hand, he stood up unsteadily, with a hoarse voice, and was about to speak when his sleeve was suddenly pulled.Turning his head, it was the former military arsenal officer with a black face.

He didn't have any strength at all, and being dragged like this again, Meng Qinghe couldn't stand still, and fell directly to the ground.

It's a real gift.

Chen Heng: "..."

The former arsenal secretary was kneeling and bowing, and by the way, he pulled Meng Qinghe up, and lowered his voice, "General Banner, all commanders and envoys are in front of you, you should kneel down."

Meng Qinghe was still dizzy, and he didn't turn around for a while. Hearing Ding Xiaoqi's reminder, he finally woke up a little bit. Reluctantly, he had to bend his knees.

"The humble post has seen it all command!"

"stand up."

Sitting on the horse, Chen Heng couldn't see Meng Qinghe's face very clearly, but he frowned when he saw his size and figure clearly.Undoubtedly, too flimsy.

"Are you the defender here?"

"It's the commander of the capital, that's right." Meng Qinghe replied: "Meng Qinghe, who is a lowly post, leads a general banner and is ordered to guard here."

"General flag?" Chen Heng was a little surprised, "but hereditary?"

"Returning to the command of the capital, a humble position is a promotion through hard work."

"Oh." Chen Heng nodded, suddenly seemed to think of something, "Your name is Meng Qinghe?"

"Commander back to the capital, that's right."

"But literati join the army?"

"Humble job but not talented, I used to be a child before joining the army."

"I remember now!" Chen Heng stroked his beard and smiled, "Meng Twelve Lang, who abandoned his pen and joined the army, was praised as a filial friend by the Wanping county magistrate, is really extraordinary!"

Meng Qinghe opened his mouth wide, how famous is he?Have all the second-rank officials of the imperial court heard of it?

"This old man admires filial and brave people the most. He abandons his pen and joins the army to avenge his father and brother. It's kind, great!" Chen Heng said with a smile: "It's really good that the old man asked someone to transfer you to Kaiping!"

Transfer him to Kaiping?

In a word, Meng Qing immediately woke up.

At the beginning, he was still wondering how he would be treated like a prisoner when he was praised as a great filial piety.It turns out that this is also the handwriting of the Commander-in-Chief?

Sure enough, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong?Should he find a place to cry, and thank the nosy commander of the eighteen generations of his ancestors?

While speaking, the Ming army cavalry returned, followed by the Beiyuan prisoners of war and horses escorted by the Ming army infantry.

In the middle of the journey, the leading military officer suddenly turned his horse's head and came straight towards the pier guarded by Meng Qinghe.

When he got close, he jumped off the horse and knelt down on one knee, "Command me if I see you!"

The voice was very familiar, it was none other than Shen Xuan and Deputy Shen Qianhu who chased and killed the Northern Yuan cavalry all the way and gained a lot of money.

Shen Xuan's move was a bit sudden, and the position where he dismounted happened to be in front of Meng Qinghe.It seems unconscious, but quite natural.

Everyone present, no one noticed.
