Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 113 Wang Baobao was shocked. Who asked Chu Nan to come up with such a vicious plan?

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!" Then a rain of arrows shot directly into the Ming army's camp.

The Northern Yuan army's strategy was quite standard. They shot arrows from the rear to suppress the enemy, while the soldiers who launched a sneak attack from the front had already approached the wall of the Ming army's main camp.

They were attacking the village wall, which was made of wooden sticks and could not stop their weapons.

Many Northern Yuan soldiers directly climbed up the wall of the village and launched an attack inside. Seeing this, Wang Baobao also led the main force behind him and rushed over even faster.

When the Northern Yuan Dynasty occupied the grassland, it had no worries about high-quality war horses, so every soldier in the Northern Yuan Dynasty had a war horse, and some even rode two or more horses. Therefore, the charge launched by a hundred thousand war horses was extremely terrifying.

The ground of the entire Ming army camp was shaking, and the flames used for lighting were swaying wildly.

"Charge!" Wang Baobao also shouted happily. The closer he got to the Ming army's tent, the more excited he felt.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang was about to be captured now, he not only had to make great contributions, but also had to lead the Northern Yuan army to counterattack the Ming Dynasty. By then, he would be able to make great achievements that would be remembered for generations.

Although Wang Baobao always felt that this was impossible, because the Yuan court was so corrupt, it would be difficult to defend the grassland, let alone counterattack.

But there was a real opportunity in front of him, and Wang Baobao was still excited. As long as Zhu Yuanzhang was caught, everything was possible.

But Wang Baobao was overthinking it after all, because everything he saw at this moment was a strategy set up by the Ming army.

In the Ming army tent, Zuo Qianhu and five or six other traitors were being controlled by a team of Ming army shield soldiers. This team of soldiers had an arduous task, as they had to keep an eye on Zuo Qianhu and other traitors, and at the same time, they had to guard against the feather arrows of the Northern Yuan people and not let them be shot, so they were very impatient.

But Zuo Qianhu and others were even more upset, no, it should be described as fear.

Because at this moment, Zuo Qianhu had never expected that he would encounter such a situation. What was going on? It was simply nonsense.

Because he was originally monitoring Zhu Yuanzhang, but as he was monitoring, he discovered that Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have been replaced and Lan Yu was missing, so he became anxious and realized that something was wrong, so he wanted to tell the people of the Northern Yuan Dynasty the news.

But he was arrested directly. Only then did he realize that there were so many people watching him and he was caught without any power to resist.

Only at this time did he realize that he had been deceived by Lan Yu and Zhu Yuanzhang, and that this was simply a trap set by the Ming army against the Northern Yuan people.

It's a trick of inflicting pain on one's self. It has been passed down in the world for so many years, but he still fell for it. I am extremely sad.

But it was of no use, he had been controlled, so now he could only watch the Northern Yuan army rushing in without doing anything.

He was in great pain, and he didn't understand who was the person who gave Zhu Yuanzhang advice? Was it Lan Yu? Impossible!

Who is this person? He is so scary and vicious.

"Charge, capture Zhu Yuanzhang alive!" At this time, the attack of the Northern Yuan army was becoming more and more fierce. The vanguard troops had broken through the gate of the camp and rushed inside.

Although the Ming army soldiers fought bravely, they were too few in number to stop the enemy, and many soldiers died directly under the horses' hooves and swords of the Northern Yuan people.

"Charge!" Seeing this situation, Wang Baobao commanded more bravely and shouted directly.

"Hurry up and capture Zhu Chongba alive!"

The morale of the Northern Yuan army became even more fierce.

"Damn it!" On the Ming army side, some generals who were informed of the situation became anxious when they saw this.

What's going on? Didn't your majesty say that once the Beiyuan army arrives, your majesty's army will come out? But why hasn't your majesty's army arrived yet?

Seeing this situation, the generals became anxious.

"Your Majesty, why hasn't your army arrived yet? All our people are about to die!" "Kill!" But just when they were anxious, the shouts of the Ming army suddenly rang out behind the Northern Yuan army.

"It's bad, my king!" The Northern Yuan soldiers immediately reported the situation to Wang Baobao.

"My lord, the Ming army has come back and we are surrounded!"

"What?" Wang Baobao was also a veteran on the battlefield and immediately understood what was going on.

"Damn it, I fell into a trap!" He was so furious. It was indeed a trap. Who came up with this plan? It was so vicious that even I fell for it!

But he calmed down and spoke to the soldier.

"Give up the attack on the main camp, line up the entire army, and break out of the encirclement!"

At this time, there must be a fake Zhu Yuanzhang in the camp, so he thought there was no need to catch him, so it would be more reliable to break out of the encirclement.

And his guess was correct. At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang was outside commanding the Ming army. Zhu Yuanzhang, wearing armor, shouted directly.

"Soldiers, it has been a hundred years. The Yuan people have occupied us for nearly a hundred years. It is not enough. They want to continue to occupy the Central Plains!"

"Today, we will let them know what it means that our Central Plains territory is sacred and inviolable. Charge!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy at this moment. Chu Nan's strategy was really good. 170,000 people surrounded 100,000 people of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Although they could not annihilate them completely this time, they could at least make the Northern Yuan Dynasty suffer a major setback.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang had considered before that there were many of Lan Yu’s confidants in the camp, and he wanted to wait until all of Lan Yu’s men were killed before taking over.

But on second thought, he decided to give up, because there were many people in this camp who were not Lan Yu's men, and if they were all killed, the morale of the Northern Yuan army would be greatly boosted, and the center would be in turmoil.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help it and took action now.

"Yes, kill!" Then, countless Ming soldiers rushed towards the Northern Yuan army without caring about their lives.

The Ming Dynasty had just been established for three years, and all of its soldiers had come from the days of the brutal rule of the Yuan Dynasty. In addition, they had recently suffered a major defeat at the hands of the Yuan Dynasty, with more than 8,000 people killed and more than 10,000 soldiers injured.

So every soldier was holding his breath. Now that the Northern Yuan people were surrounded, they had a chance for revenge. How could they not be excited?

The cavalry horses roared wildly and immediately stood up and brandished their sharp spears. Every time they swung, a Northern Yuan cavalryman was pierced through the chest.

The infantry formed a formation and advanced slowly. They did not charge forward bravely and kill the enemy one-on-one, but they killed a group of Northern Yuan cavalry at once.

The archers were extremely powerful and shot their arrows through the leather armor of the Northern Yuan army one by one.

There were also firearms troops who used muskets to directly blow the Northern Yuan cavalry to pieces.

"Ah, ah, ah!" All of a sudden, countless Northern Yuan troops were overwhelmed by the anger of the Ming army.

The Northern Yuan army was stunned. Why was the Ming army attacking like mad dogs, recklessly?
They were afraid and their morale was low. In addition, they were attacked by surprise and their formation was disrupted. Many Northern Yuan cavalry were directly dispersed, then divided and surrounded, and annihilated one by one.

"This!" Wang Baobao was also shocked. He didn't expect that so many people would die in this sneak attack. The Ming army must have been prepared for a long time.

But he was a famous general after all, and he knew how to use his advantages. He then directly ordered his cavalry to launch a fierce charge towards an infantry formation.

"Charge forward! As long as we charge forward, we will survive!"

Then, the dying Northern Yuan cavalry really rushed forward, and then burst out with unprecedented combat power, and actually broke through the Ming army's infantry formation.
