Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 203
The emperor didn't give Marquis Wu'an any face, and forced all civil and military officials to continue watching singing and dancing in Fengtian Hall.

But where are the ministers still thinking about it? Now everyone can see that something big is happening outside.

And it is very obvious that the emperor had premeditated and deliberately trapped the ministers here.

Therefore, the emperor was not only suspicious of the eunuchs, but he was obviously worried about civil servants, generals, and nobles, for fear that someone would take the opportunity to make trouble.

For the sake of the monarch and ministers, it is actually very boring.

But Zhu Qiyu doesn't care, the ministers can look at it however they like, politics is a shameless thing, especially when you are the emperor, then you can't shame it.

Zhu Qiyu only wants his family to live a good life. After all, the experience and lessons are there. In history, Jingtai dared not do this or that because of his thin skin. As a result, among his large group of women, only one Er Wuzi survived, and the rest either died unexpectedly or were forced to be buried, whichever was more unbearable.

So Zhu Qiyu stayed with the ministers in Fengtian Hall like this, letting the ministers discuss casually, as long as they don't leave the hall.

……

The sages all pay attention to the interaction between heaven and man, in fact, sometimes the interaction between heaven and man really works.

As more and more Wala soldiers were killed on the battlefield, the rain became heavier and heavier.The bitter wind and rain made the battlefield even more tragic and desolate.

In this night attack, the left and right guards of Yingzhou were the most handy. From the very beginning, Zhu Qiyu focused on training his own guards on night attack tactics, waiting for this rainy night to attack the camp.

A negative example is the Shenji Camp led by Fan Guang and Tao Jin.As the name of the Shenji Camp suggests, the combat method is mainly based on firearms.In such a rainy day, firearms are definitely useless.Although some of the elite of the Shenji Battalion can also fight hand-to-hand, they are still much worse than the Yingzhou Wei and Xiaoqi Battalion.

Moreover, the division of labor of the Yingzhou Guard is more clear and coordinated. Eight thousand soldiers are divided into four arms, three thousand heavy infantry are at the front, responsible for collisions and breakthroughs;

A thousand crossbowmen were in charge of assisting and covering.The remaining 2000 people were responsible for beheading and cleaning up fish that slipped through the net.

In addition, the [-] dead men from the Ara Zhiyuan were temporarily mixed into Yingzhou Youwei to act together.Since Yingzhou Youwei was originally based on the Baoding Tatar officials who had surrendered to Ming Dynasty, there was no problem with the cooperation between the two sides.

At the beginning, Zhu Qiyu brought eight hundred god-armed crossbows from the Ministry of War and Jin Yiwei, and later added another batch. Now that firearms are useless in heavy rain, strong bows and powerful crossbows are in great use.

Therefore, after entering the Wara camp, the Yingzhou Guards did not go to kill the central army first, but after covering the rear army to follow up, they played the game of beheading in an orderly manner on the flanks.

This is not that the soldiers of the Yingzhou Guard are not brave enough, but a kind of humility and comity.Fan Guang, Wang Tong, Hao Yi, Li Xuan, Guo Chang, Guo Cong and others need the credit for defeating Yexian's army.

Firstly, Yingzhou Wei had done enough meritorious service before, and Xu Tong, Gu Zhong, Liu Chang and others were unwilling to make too much publicity, and secondly, the personal guards beheaded people, so they paid a lot of rewards.This time is a golden opportunity to make a fortune.

Fan Guang's Shenji Battalion and Wang Tong's Tiance Guard chanted slogans to capture Yexian alive in the heavy rain, and they were the first to kill Yexian's camp outside the camp.

Guarding Yexian's Chinese army were the most elite [-] pro-military troops, all wearing heavy armor and holding sharp knives, fearlessly blocking the Ming army's impact.

Fan Guang and Wang Tong also had about 1 people. The two sides were blocked in a small area, and they couldn't use it at all. For a while, no one could do anything to the other.

The two sides hacked each other for a meal, but there were not many casualties after all.

Fan Guang and Wang Tong were in a hurry, but Ye Xian was more anxious than them.There were shouts of killing everywhere outside, and when you think about it, you know that the Ming army didn't have 5 to [-] people, so they didn't dare to enter the camp.

This means that there are at least 10 to [-] people fighting together between Oala and Ming.

Thinking of this, I became more and more frightened and chilled.It was almost over, let alone whether the [-] exhausted soldiers in my hands could beat the [-] to [-] Ming troops who came in.

Even if they can fight well, so what? The Ming army has a total of more than 20 people. If the current [-] is exhausted, another [-] can be sent up;

Now that the lights are dark and the wind and rain are blowing, the Oirat cavalry's combat strength advantage cannot be brought into play at all.

There are still more than three hours before dawn, no matter how brave and skilled the Oirat soldiers are, they will not be able to last until dawn, and their physical strength will be exhausted.

Simply put, even if the Ming army used the stupidest wheel to fight, it would consume the Oirat army to death.

So I came to a conclusion first: this time I lost.

The only rational approach now is to leave the battlefield as soon as possible, and win less when you lose.

Just when Ye Xian was struggling, Zhu Qiyu did something too much: Hao Yi's Imperial Horse Supervisor Four Guards and Xu Heng's Xiaoqi Battalion also killed the periphery of the Chinese Army camp from the opposite direction to Fan Guang.

What Zhu Qiyu went too far was that he had previously agreed to the proposal of the native official Chen Fuzong, who had surrendered to the Cochin, and asked Chen Zongfu, Ruan Zongqi and other native officials to join the left guard of Wuxiang, and was responsible for pulling out the elephants raised by the royal horses and building elephant armor. Training like war.

No, these dozens of fully armed elephants will come in handy right now.

If it is on the frontal battlefield, the two sides set up a battle against each other, and the elephant battle is useless. Artillery and strong crossbows can easily deal with elephants.

But this time the night attack was different, not to mention that Wala did not have artillery, even if it had artillery, it would be enough to use in the heavy rain.As for the crossbow, the camp is in such a mess, there is no time to set up the crossbow, even if it is set up, how to aim at it.

Ordinary bows and crossbows shot at the armor worn by elephants, even if it scratches it, it doesn't have much effect.

Yexian's elite soldiers didn't have much time to react, dozens of elephants rushed in, and immediately they were thrown into chaos.

Immediately afterwards, the Xiaoqi Battalion and the four guards of the Royal Horse Supervisor rushed in through the gap made by the elephant.

Seeing this first, he let out a long sigh.I can't stop it completely, my own soldiers are now under the enemy's back and forth, and they are already stretched.If you don't run away, it will soon become surrounded on all sides.

At this time, Fan Guang and Wang Tong were to the east of Yexian's central army; Xu Heng and Hao Yi were to the west of Yexian;

This is also what Zhu Qiyu had ordered a long time ago to be the master of Wei, and he specially left a way for him to run south.

As for whether the poor should not be chased, then Zhu Qiyu doesn't care.Anyway, Yingzhou Guard, Xiaoqi Battalion, and Tiance Guard all have other important tasks in the future, and they will not participate in the military action of chasing and going to Bauhinia Pass first.

As for the other armies and guards, let their generals command them as they please.Even if something goes wrong, the general will be responsible. After all, Zhu Qiyu didn't order them to chase after him indiscriminately.

……

Soon it was the middle of the night, and many ministers in Fengtian Palace had already started to feel drowsy.

Zhu Qiyu ate another meatloaf made by his concubine, drank a pot of fine wine, and then leaned on the dragon chair, watching the ministers in a daze.
