Li Huan's facial expression naturally looked in Xu Ying's eyes, looking at the soldiers who fell to the ground, Xu Ying was also secretly regretful like Li Huan.

You must know that the Tatars are fleeing in a panic now. It can be said that it is the best time for them to pursue and expand the results of the battle. As long as there is a team of elites to follow and kill those Tatars, I dare not say if there are too many, leaving thousands of Tatars behind. There is still no problem with the elite tartar.

It's a pity that just looking at the soldiers in front of him, Xu Ying also knew that this idea was not realistic at all.

Li Huan glanced at Xu Ying, smiled lightly and said, "Okay, if you want to deal with the Tatars, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Xu Ying cheered up and said, "What the general said is true."

At this moment, I saw Bai Yu walking over with the arm of a blood-soaked general, bowing to Li Huan and saying, "Greetings, General, thank you for saving my life!"

This person is none other than Meng Wei, the thousand-household officer who was left behind by Zheng Guang and led more than a thousand people to resist tens of thousands of Tatars.

That is to say, Meng Wei's fate was great. Originally, under the siege of the Tatars, there were less than a hundred people left out of more than a thousand people. It was at this time that Li Huan led the army to kill them, making Meng Wei and others escape by chance. robbery.

Even so, when the Tatars fled and those who were killed were killed, there were only a few dozen people left in Meng Wei's party. At this time, they came to visit Li Huan under the leadership of their friends.

Li Huan looked at Meng Wei, who was covered in blood, his face was pale, and Meng Wei, who had no less than a dozen wounds on his body, couldn't help praising: "Meng Qianhu is very brave. This time, Meng Qianhu led his subordinates to guard Langyakou, and he did a great job. Li will definitely do it for you." Meng Qianhu paid homage to the court."

Meng Wei's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and even his pale face was slightly flushed, showing the excitement in his heart.

However, Meng Wei still suppressed the excitement in his heart and respectfully said to Li Huan: "The general is absurd, the last general's defense is not good, he failed to hold the wolf's teeth, so that the Tatars fled into the grassland..."

Li Huan waved his hand and looked at Meng Wei and said, "It's Zheng Guang's fault for failing to keep the mouth of the wolf's tooth. Meng Qianhu is not only innocent, but has merit."

As he spoke, Li Huan glanced at Meng Wei's injuries and said to Bai Yu who was beside him, "Bai Qianhu, take Meng Qianhu to recuperate."

It is said that once a general is successful, all bones will be destroyed. Li Huan stood at the height of Langyakou and looked around. He saw a pile of dead bodies within a few miles in front of Langyakou. There were Tatars and Ming soldiers, soldiers from both sides. Dead bodies are piled upon layers and can be seen everywhere.

At this time, the soldiers who took a break were starting to clean up the corpses around them under the command of some generals. The corpses of the Tatars had their heads chopped off and piled up together, while the corpses of their own comrades were cleaned out and placed neatly.

As the evening approached, a group of fast horses came galloping, and they were indeed a group of messengers.

Under the leadership of Li Hu, the messengers in charge walked into a large tent and saw Li Huan.

While bowing down to Li Huan, the messenger took out a letter from his bosom and said, "General, please report urgently from the governor."

Li Huan raised his brows when he heard this, reached out to take the letter, opened it, glanced at the content on the letter, couldn't help but a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, okay!"

The generals Xu Ying and Ren Ping nearby couldn't help showing curiosity when they saw Li Huan's happy appearance.

They were very curious about what good news was in the letter that made Li Huan so happy.

Li Huan handed the letter to Xu Ying and said: "The Great Governor defeated the Tartars in the first battle, killed more than [-] Tatars and captured more than [-] prisoners. It can be described as a rare victory in a century."

When everyone heard the words, they all showed shock and joy.

As members of the army, they naturally knew what such a great victory meant.

The Ming Dynasty has never had such a great victory in the past hundred years. It is conceivable that once the news of this victory reaches the capital, what kind of waves will be stirred up, and even the world will be shocked by it.

With this great victory, I don't know how many people will be promoted to the sky since then, and they are just one of them. I dare not say if there are too many people, just because they followed Li Huan into the grassland and stirred up the Tatars. In the rear, to shake the morale of the Tatar army going south, and to cooperate with Wang Yangming's contribution to annihilating more than [-] Tatar troops, it might be possible to reward them for their merits, even a title of title.

Thinking of this, Xu Ying and the others couldn't hide their joy on their faces.

It's just that at this moment Li Huan sighed with regret and said: "It's just a pity that the governor misjudged Zheng Guang and entrusted him with the important task of guarding Langyakou. Zheng Guang, so that Zheng Guang fled without a fight in the face of the Tatars' attack, allowing the Tatars to escape and ascend to heaven, otherwise, according to the plan of the great governor, it may not be impossible to annihilate Dayan and others in one battle."

Hearing what Li Huan said, Xu Ying and the others couldn't help but sigh when they thought of Dayan who escaped and the more than [-] elite Golden Horde troops who followed Dayan into the prairie.

At the same time, he couldn't help cursing: "Zheng Guang, the thief, really deserves to be killed, even if he is hacked into pieces, it will not atone for his crime."

"Now that I think about it, the general killed him. It's really cheap for him."

Thinking that Dayan escaped from birth because of Zheng Guang in this battle, so that they lost the greatest contribution of capturing the enemy chieftain alive, which is enough to be a marquis, everyone wished to pull Zheng Guang's body over and whip him a hundred times.

Li Hu couldn't help sighing and said: "It's a pity, if Dayan can be captured alive, the general will be able to retire with the country with his meritorious service."

Seeing the pity of the crowd, Li Huan coughed lightly and said, "Clean up and arrange people to guard this place in case of accidents. The rest of the people will follow me to see the governor."

In front of Fort Wuning here, there are dozens of miles of corpses everywhere, and within this range, there are also corpses left by the soldiers of the two sides fighting fiercely.

Teams of Tatar captives were sweeping the battlefield under the supervision of Ming army officers and soldiers. At the same time, Wang Yangming, Yang Yiqing, Cao Xiong and others were discussing among the ruins of Fort Wuning.

The original Fort Wuning had already been turned into ruins during several battles between hands. Wang Yangming, Yang Yiqing, Cao Xiong, Shen Buyi and other civil and military officials gathered among the ruins that had been cleared out.

The faces of all the people were filled with joy that could not be concealed. Not long ago, they finally forced the surrender of the Tatar general Ayan who had delayed them after the break. They killed tens of thousands of Tatars in the first battle and captured more than [-] prisoners.

Such a great victory is almost beyond everyone's imagination, even Yang Yiqing and Cao Xiong, who are as calm as they are, have joyful expressions on their faces.

Everyone is an old man who has been up and down for many years in the officialdom, and he knows better than anyone what kind of rewards will be waiting for them under such a great victory.

Besides, there are still greater credits waiting for them, so at this moment, everyone is looking at the commander of the army, the governor Wang Yangming, who is sitting there calmly, with admiration and admiration.

Wang Yangming sat there with a calm expression, as if he was not affected by the great victory at all.

At this moment, the eyes of more than a dozen civilian officials and dozens of military generals fell on Wang Yangming, and Qi Zhen, the commander in chief, said to Wang Yangming, "Governor, you can give the order. I am willing to lead the army to join the general. , wipe out the rest of Dayan."

Everyone's eyes were full of excitement and anticipation, capturing or beheading Dayan Khan alive, who wouldn't want such a great achievement, you must know that this is a great achievement that can be sealed, even if it is the first achievement at that time, you will not be able to escape Wang Yangming, Li Huan and the others, but the credit they have shared is enough to make them soar into the sky, and they will be princes for generations.

When Qi Zhen opened his mouth, Cao Xiong immediately refused to agree, and he stood up and said loudly to Wang Yangming: "Governor, let the subordinate lead the army to help the general. The subordinate and the general have joined hands to kill the enemy before." experience of……"

Cao Xiong's words directly caused many other generals to grin, as if they couldn't cooperate with Li Huan.

One after another silhouettes stood up. It can be said that apart from a few people, how many people can remain calm in the face of the great effort to capture Dayan alive.

It can be said that everyone's desire for war is extremely strong at this time, even if they know that Dayan is surrounded by the most elite Golden Horde army, they can't hold back the desire of these people for capturing Dayan alive.

At this moment, Wang Yangming, who had been silent all this time, showed a smile on the corner of his mouth. His eyes fell on Yang Yiqing who was beside him and said, "Governor Yang, I wonder which general you think should lead the army to assist the general?"

Yang Yiqing was slightly taken aback, then reacted and bowed his hands to Wang Yangming and said: "Yang thinks that this matter should be decided by the governor."

If he opened his mouth, no matter who he recommended, he might offend more people. Yang Yiqing could only feel the gazes falling on him, and expressed his position decisively.

Wang Yangming didn't want Yang Yiqing to take the blame, but just asked casually. Hearing this, he saw Yang Yiqing's solemn expression, pondered for a while, and then his eyes fell on a figure among the crowd.

"Commander Guan, this time you will lead a troop to assist the general."

Guan Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and when he came to his senses, Dang even showed surprise on his face. He took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress the joy in his heart, took a step forward, bowed to Wang Yangming and said, "The last general takes orders."

As the first general to stand in line with Li Huan, Guan Zheng was born in the Beijing camp and was left by Li Huan in Shaanxi to train the new army. He can also be regarded as Li Huan's most trusted general under Li Huan.

Especially this time Wang Yangming was ordered to go out of Beijing to command hundreds of thousands of troops. It is precisely because the [-] troops compiled and trained by Guan Zheng are the basic base that Wang Yangming has enough confidence to dispatch troops from all sides.

After all, hundreds of thousands of troops come from several provinces, and a commander-in-chief holds the power of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Even if Wang Yangming is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, if there are no soldiers and horses directly under him to rely on, it may not be possible. It will be able to deter these generals.

And Guan Zheng is naturally obedient to Wang Yangming, so whether it is because of Li Huan or because of Wang Yangming's reward for Guan Zheng's support this time, Wang Yangming directly ordered Guan Zheng's general, and left this great contribution. Guan Zheng was given.

All the generals present saw that Wang Yangming ordered Guan Zheng's generals, all of them showed envy and jealousy on their faces, and many of them secretly envied Guan Zheng's luck.

Not only is Li Huan, the emperor's favored minister, valued, but now he is also favored by Wang Yangming, and he has given him the great credit for capturing Dayan.

It can be said that as long as there are no accidents, as long as Guan Zheng assists Li Huan in capturing Dayan Khan alive, it will definitely not be a problem to be named a Marquis.

But apart from envy, no one can say anything, because if anyone objects, the first to offend is Li Huan and Wang Yangming, the two army commanders. Hands and feet, I'm afraid I can't even keep the credit for the moment.

So no matter what you think in your heart, after Wang Yangming ordered Guan Zheng's general, everyone congratulated Guan Zheng with envy.

Watching off Guan Zheng's soldiers and horses leaving in a hurry, Wang Yangming said in a deep voice: "Everyone, go and inspect the soldiers and horses. Tomorrow, the army will be ordered to go to Langyakou with the governor to help the general."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the words.

A strange look flashed in the eyes of many people, suddenly thinking that there are tens of thousands of the most elite Golden Horde Khan army beside Yanhan, even if Guan Zheng leads tens of thousands of troops to join Li Huan, he may not be able to gather in a short time Defeated Dayan's department.

This also means that they may not have the chance to capture Dayan alive, at most it is Guan Zheng who has taken the lead compared to them, but if you think about it, Guan Zheng who goes first may not be able to take advantage of it. Maybe it's even making wedding clothes for others.

The earth shook, Guan Zheng led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, some of the infantry got on their horses, and some of them trotted forward with most of them, but the speed was not slow at all.

After all, this time the Tatar Duanhou troops were wiped out, not only tens of thousands of prisoners were captured alive, but tens of thousands of war horses were also harvested.

Therefore, in order to catch up with the world, after reporting to Wang Yangming, Guan Zheng mobilized tens of thousands of horses, and the infantry directly became mounted infantry, and the marching speed was more than doubled.

All of a sudden, the sentinel who had been inquiring ahead rushed over.

The sentry stopped and said to Guan Zheng: "Master Commander, there is a large group of troops ahead, and the banner seems to be our troops!"

Guan Zheng couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and he felt somewhat puzzled and puzzled.

Soon Guan Zheng saw a mass of people approaching slowly in front of him. When Guan Zheng saw the eye-catching banner, he couldn't help but opened his eyes wide and exclaimed: "General, How could it be the banner of the Great General!"

With all kinds of doubts and incomprehensions, when he was sure that the front was really Li Huan's troops, Guan Zheng quickly led his own soldiers forward.

In fact, when Guan Zheng's department discovered Li Huan and others, Li Huan and the others also discovered Guan Zheng and others.

When Guan Zheng appeared in front of Li Huan and bowed down to Li Huan, Li Huan supported Guan Zheng, looked him up and down and said, "That's right, it seems that Guan Zheng, after this battle, you are still the best!" A qualified general."

After receiving Li Huan's praise, Guan Zheng showed a smile on his face and said, "I would also like to thank the General for his cultivation. If the General didn't value him, I'm afraid that the lower officials would have to waste time in the capital camp."

Li Huan smiled slightly, glanced at Guan Zheng and the army behind him and said: "It seems that you came to help me deal with Dayan's troops under the order of the governor."

Guan Zheng nodded and said: "The general's eyes are as bright as a torch, and this officer just got the general's order from the governor to come to help the general."

Speaking of this, Guan Zheng said with some surprise: "Couldn't the general have captured Na Dayan alive?"

From Guan Zheng's point of view, Li Huan should be dealing with Dayan's troops at this moment. Since Li Huan appeared here, he must have solved Dayan's problem. Otherwise, Li Huan would never withdraw his troops and return to the army. .

Before Li Huan opened his mouth to explain, Ren Ping on the side couldn't help but said: "It wasn't the murderous Zheng Guang, if he hadn't let Dayan and the others go, I'm afraid he would really capture Dayan alive right now." gone."

Ren Ping and Guan Zheng were considered old friends, and after hearing Ren Ping's words, Guan Zheng couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Huan in surprise.

Obviously Guan Zheng was confused by the news revealed by Ren Ping's simple words.

Guan Zheng exclaimed: "What? Dayan escaped, how is this possible? Zheng Guang's army has [-] troops, and [-] troops are stationed in a small Langyakou. How could the Tatars be there?" Breaking through Langyakou in such a short time?"

No wonder Guan Zheng was so shocked, it was really unbelievable.

Although the tens of thousands of fine cavalry under Dayan's command are powerful, there are also many soldiers and horses under Zheng Guang's command.

With a cold snort, Ren Ping said: "It's not that Zheng Guang, the chief soldier, was greedy for life and afraid of death, and was disturbed by the Tatars' surprise attack. If it hadn’t been for the general who killed Zheng Guang decisively and gathered the defeated army to fight back, I’m afraid even the more than 1 Golden Horde troops would have fled back to the prairie with Dayan Khan.”

Guan Zheng, who let out a foul breath, finally accepted the fact that Dayan escaped from birth, not to mention the disappointment in his heart.

It's almost like the meritorious service at hand is gone, Guan Zheng is so depressed.

But no matter how depressed he was, Dayan had already fled. After a while, Guan Zheng couldn't help cursing angrily: "Damn Zheng Guang, it's too cheap for the general to kill him."

The army converged in one place, and then the front army of Guan Zheng's department changed to the rear army, and the rear army changed to the front army and headed towards Wuning Castle in a mighty manner.

It was dark and night was falling.

Continuous bonfires illuminated the range of tens of miles in front of Fort Wuning.

Hundreds of thousands of troops set up camps, occupying a large area, and a large number of camps were well-located and orderly, which fully demonstrated Wang Yangming's ability to command the army.

When Wang Yangming was awakened from his sleep by his own soldiers, he thought something serious had happened, but when he learned that Li Huan and Guan Zheng rushed over, Wang Yangming's drowsiness disappeared, and he changed into his clothes almost immediately Go to the big tent of the Chinese army.

When Wang Yangming rushed to the big tent of the Chinese army, he immediately saw Li Huan sitting there and Guan Zheng who had gone and returned.

Li Huan got up and smiled at Wang Yangming: "It's disturbing the dream of the governor, the governor forgive me."

Wang Yangming shook his head with a smile, but looked at Li Huan with a serious look in his eyes and said, "General, could it be that there was an accident in Lang Yakou, and he got away from Dayan and the others..."

Speaking of which, Wang Yangming shook his head with some doubts and said, "It shouldn't be, Zheng Guang's troops have [-] soldiers and horses guarding the small wolf's teeth. I dare not say that there are too many. It will be no problem to block it for a few days... ..."

Needless to say, even Wang Yangming, who is planning to plan Wushuang, can't think of what happened at the moment.

Li Huan signaled Wang Yangming to take a seat, watched Wang Yangming frown and ponder, and sighed slightly: "General Governor, you only think that [-] soldiers and horses are unbearable, and it should be no problem to guard the wolf's teeth, but it is impossible to imagine that someone will take the initiative to lead the army. Tens of thousands of troops have fled, let the wolf's teeth pass to the Tatars..."

With a bang, Wang Yangming immediately slapped the desk case upon hearing the words, directly shattering the table case.

Guan Zheng on the side couldn't help being taken aback when he saw Wang Yangming's furious look. He had never seen Wang Yangming so angry. You must know that Wang Yangming had always given him the impression that Mount Tai collapsed without changing his color, as if the big things couldn't be ignored. It's hard to be moved by it.

Seeing Wang Yangming's anger right now, one can imagine Wang Yangming's anger.

Yang Yiqing, who had just lifted the curtain and walked in, was taken aback when he saw the scattered desks and Wang Yangming with an angry face.

Li Huan nodded at Yang Yiqing and said, "Governor Yang, please sit down and talk."

Yang Yiqing nodded slightly and sat next to Li Huan, glanced at the furious Wang Yangming and said in a low voice: "General, this is..."

Li Huan said it briefly, but when Yang Yiqing heard the news that the general Zheng Guang had fled without a fight and allowed Dayan's troops to escape, he couldn't help but curse.

Being able to make people like Yang Yiqing and Wang Yangming with excellent self-cultivation and tenacity can't control their emotions, it can be seen how much excitement the news of Zheng Guang's release of Dayan brought to them.

After calming down the anger and turmoil in his heart, Wang Yangming looked at Li Huan and said, "Where is Zheng Guang?"

Just listening to Wang Yangming's extremely depressing words, he knew that Wang Yangming asked Zheng Guang for news, and he would definitely not let him go easily.

As he spoke, Wang Yangming gritted his teeth and said, "Zheng Guang asked for orders to garrison at Langyakou, but after he issued a military order, he dared to flee without a fight and let Dayan go. This governor executed him with military law."

Li Huan said calmly: "Li had already beheaded him at that time."

Wang Yangming was taken aback when he heard the words, then nodded without surprise and said: "It was a good kill. If it wasn't for this beast, the Tatars would have been wiped out this time, and Dayan would have been captured alive. If we don't kill this beast, it won't be enough to deter the soldiers."

That night, the general soldier Zheng Guang fled without a fight, and the news that he allowed Dayan's troops to escape and ascend to heaven spread throughout the three armies. When the three armies heard the news, they all cursed him.

A few days later, following the news from the dispatched sentinels, Dayan led the remnant troops back to the grassland, fleeing far into the depths of the grassland, completely eliminating the possibility of Li Huan and others entering the grassland to hunt down Dayan.Under such circumstances, Li Huan, Wang Yangming, Yang Yiqing and others began to gather troops and horses, count the results of the battle, and prepare to return to the court.

At the same time, a few days passed, and the army wiped out more than 10,000 Tatars. Of the [-]+ Tatars who went south to Kouguan, only Dayan and the remnants of tens of thousands escaped. Go to the capital.

It has been more than half a year since the Tatars went south at the beginning of spring, and the imperial court successively sent troops led by Li Huan and Wang Yangming to fight.

It was summer, the weather was scorching hot, and the scorching breath was depressing. The soldiers guarding the city gate hid in the gate holes one by one, wanting to sleep soundly.

All of a sudden, several soldiers leaning against the city gate who were in a state of distress only heard a rush of horseshoes, each of them trembled and suddenly opened their eyes and looked outside the city gate.

"Great victory, the governor wiped out more than [-] Tatars in the first battle..."

A team of couriers who were in a hurry for eight hundred miles roared past, shouting a great victory, and passed through the door directly, leaving only smoke and dust on the ground.

The shouts of the messengers echoed in the ears of the soldiers who were awakened, "Look at me, I look at you, and suddenly one of them couldn't help but shouted: "Oh my god, I heard that right! Well, the Great Governor wiped out more than [-] Tatar troops in one battle..."

Even if they were guarding the city gate, they had already gotten used to the good news after several good news in the past six months, but when they heard the content of the good news at this moment, they still had expressions of shock and disbelief.
