Borrow the day to change the day

The night is dark and windy, and it is not a good time to march. Therefore, at a place 1 miles southwest of the Horqin Khan Tent, an army finally camped because it was too dark, and was going to return to the Horqin Khan Tent the next day. Set off to search and suppress the more than [-] Horqin troops of the Ming army.

This night, at the same time, happened to be a good time to kill and set fire.

Seeing the beauty of the heavens, Cao Wenzhao ordered Cao Bianjiao, Huang Degong, and Zuo Liangyu to quietly wake up the subordinates who had put them to sleep in advance.With a bell in the horse's mouth and a grass in the man's mouth, they set off in the dark.

This battle will be the last battle of the death camp on the grassland. Although most of the enemies have been transferred away under the blessing of God, it is also the strongest enemy that the death camp will face this time.

All the soldiers of the death camp are extremely cautious, try their best to do what they can, and follow orders without saying a word.

When he saw the sparks and fires on the grassland from a distance, Cao Wenzhao knew that Horqin's sweat tent was ahead.

He ordered the advance to be halted and the troops checked readiness again.And it was reported that the three generals were dispatching tasks before the war based on the situation of Horqin's camp.

It can be seen from the distribution of fire piles that the Horqin people are distributed in a circle.It can be inferred that the sweat tent should be located at the center of the circle.

For this reason, Cao Wenzhao decided that Zuo Liangyu's department was responsible for setting the fire and causing chaos.The rest use Cao Wenzhao as the arrow, and deploy Cao Bianjiao and Huang Degong's units on the left and right, form an arrow array, and hit the enemy's circle. After trying to penetrate, they are divided into three small arrows and pass through the enemy's array again.

After Cao Wenzhao briefly explained the combat mission, he said to the three of them: "The purpose of this battle is to strike as much as possible against the enemy who tried to resist, and to kill everyone near the Wang Banner. The tactics assigned before the war must be implemented, but we must also Depending on the situation, if the friendly army is blocked by a large group of enemy troops, other troops must support them, and the Tatars cannot be given a chance to stabilize the situation, understand?"

"The last general understands." The three generals replied in unison, none of them were rookies on the battlefield, and they knew what tactics to use under any circumstances.

"Knowing yourself and the enemy is important in fighting, but we still know too little about the enemy. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether the battle is won or not. Everyone will do their best. I hope that as many brothers as possible can come back To the capital." Cao Wenzhao once again solemnly reminded his three generals not to be careless.

"Yes, Commander." The three of them, whether it is Cao Wenzhao's nephew, Zuo Liangyu, who is greedy for money, or Huang Degong, who is illiterate but loyal and courageous, all of them are in this situation. He answered Cao Wenzhao very seriously.

Cao Wenzhao nodded in satisfaction, looked at the night, estimated the time, and felt that it was almost the time when people slept most soundly.

Now his morale that should be boosted has been boosted, and everything that should be deployed has been deployed. Once the war starts and the troops are separated, it will be difficult to command other troops under the darkness of night. Everything depends on the final result!

The three generals paid a military salute to Cao Wenzhao, and then returned to their troops to prepare to attack.

All the soldiers of the death camp began to take out strips of white cloth, helped their comrades tie them on their arms, and said softly, "Take care, brother."

Zhu Yuanzhong kept in mind Cao Wenzhao's previous teachings, and now the period of desperate fighting has passed.A small round shield was tied to his left arm, and he held the rein in his right hand, controlling the mount, and performed his guard duty close to Cao Bianjiao.

The soldiers behind him, like him, followed closely behind their comrades, moving forward with the speed of the leading general in front.

Under the night, the occasional starlight cannot illuminate the way forward of this army.But here is the grassland, it doesn't matter if the official way is not official way, if you move towards the goal, you will not lose.

Zhu Yuanzhong was at the forefront of the team, on the left side in the direction of the arrow, and could see the enemy camp in the distance at a glance.

According to his experience, the team should be discovered by the Tartar sentries soon.At that time, the team will speed up, with knives and guns in hand, and overwhelm the defensive forces organized by the enemy's police with lightning speed.

That is to say, the key to this kind of sneak attack lies in whether their attack speed is fast or the enemy's reaction speed is fast; whether their attack power is strong or the enemy's defense strength is strong.

Zhu Yuanzhong slowly raised his heart, watching the distance to the target shrink step by step, thinking that the enemy sentry was about to give an early warning, and immediately concentrated his strength on his legs, preparing to hear the early warning sound of the enemy sentry, and be able to quickly Urge the horse to follow the general Cao Bianjiao.

However, Zhu Yuanzhong's heart was hanging and hanging, until he couldn't hang anymore, but he still didn't hear the movement of the Tartar sentry.

This made him a little suspicious, and he looked up at Cao Bianjiao, the general in front of him on the right.It's a pity that he can only see half of the back of Cao Bianjiao's head, but not Cao Bianjiao's face.

Not being reminded by the general, Zhu Yuanzhong himself began to guess wildly, it could not be that the Tartars had laid an ambush and waited for them to take the bait.

Although he thought so, the army was already in the process of attacking, and it couldn't be stopped even if it wanted to, not to mention that the chief general didn't change the order of attacking.

The army was not discovered by the enemy sentry until it was about two miles away from the enemy camp, but they did not call the police, but only came up to them and asked loudly.

Zhu Yuanzhong saw that these stupid Tartar sentries were shot into a hornet's nest by a nest of arrows shot from the arrow of General Cao in front, and then fell off the horse with the Tartar sentries, and their screams spread immediately.

Zhu Yuanzhong didn't have time to raise his head to observe the movement of the enemy camp caused by the screams. He reached out to pick up the long spear hanging from the horse hook, and at the same time urged the horse to speed up to catch up with the general Cao Bianjiao to perform his duty of guard.

No matter how soft the sound of the horseshoes wrapped in cotton cloth was, it finally alarmed the Mongolian Tartars who were sensitive to the sound of horseshoes. In addition to the screams from the sentries before, they all told the Tartars that there was an enemy attack.

The patrols holding torches shouted loudly, first awakening part of the army on duty at night, but like chickens without a head, they didn't know how to meet the enemy.

Among the leading Tartar leaders, some rushed towards the source of the sound, some wanted to wake up more companions, and some wanted to avoid the source of the sound and attack from the side, all of a sudden chaos .

The death camp is in the dark, the Tartars are in the light, and the target is obvious.Several waves of arrows shot in the dark made it impossible for the oncoming Tartars to avoid them. They fell off their horses with arrows, and then trampled past with rolling iron hooves.

Zhu Yuanzhong was guarding Cao Bianjiao's left side. When he saw the tartar, he either stretched out his hand to shoot, or lightly waved his shield, and with the help of horsepower, smashed the tartar's head to pieces.

One, two, three, many Tartars caught off guard all died under Zhu Yuanzhong's gun shield.

The battle was surprisingly smooth. Judging from the situation, the Mongol Tartars never thought that they would attack from the north, and they did not have good night defense measures, which made Zhu Yuanzhong secretly happy.

But it didn't take long before a difficulty appeared before them.

All the generals in front, including the commander in chief, suddenly reined in their horses and stopped.Zhu Yuanzhong also stopped quickly, and then looked forward.

They saw a small river lying quietly in front of them, dividing the camp of the Mongol Tartars into two.

Zhu Yuanzhong looked at the general, and the general was looking in the direction of the general. For a while, he didn't know what to do.

Time waits for no one, and the Tartars should not be given a chance to recover.This is a truth that everyone knows, from the generals to the soldiers.

Seeing that he hadn't acted yet, Zhu Yuanzhong was anxious, and looked back at half of the Tartar camp that he had pierced through.It was discovered that Zuo Liangyu's troops were setting fire on the way they came, and the fire helped the wind to burn the entire Tazi camp red.

With the help of the firelight, one could see that the Tartars were scurrying around, and some of them were starting to resist with bows and knives, and the number of resisters was increasing.

We cannot wait any longer. The longer it drags on, the more serious the situation will be.

Zhu Yuanzhong looked anxiously at the general again, and found that Cao Bianjiao was looking in the direction of the commander, and at the same time looked back at the surrounding situation. He could vaguely see the anxious look on Cao Bianjiao's face.

Soon, Cao Bianjiao found that the troops in the direction of Cao Dashuai rushed directly into the river, which surprised him. What if the water is too deep?

But it was too late to think about it, as soon as he lifted the reins, he was ready to lead his troops across the river.

At this moment, the guards sent by Cao Wenzhao arrived, and shouted an order to Cao Bianjiao: "The commander ordered you to turn around and attack the northern camp of the Tartars, without crossing the river."

Cao Bianjiao got the order, and regardless of worrying about his uncle's safety, he turned around by the river and charged the northern camp of the Tartars again, massacring those Tartars who tried to resist.

Cao Wenzhao's guess just now was correct. The river was not deep, and it was shallow enough to submerge the horse's thigh, which made him greatly relieved.

In fact, the Tartars camped on both sides of the river, and there was no bridge connecting them. In case of an enemy attack, the two sides of the river would not be able to help each other in time. This is a big taboo for military strategists.

Cao Wenzhao also issued this order based on this reason and because of time constraints.Let Huang Degong follow him across the river and attack the Tartars on the other side.Leave Cao Bianjiao on the north bank and continue to sweep away the remaining enemies here.

In the wave of attacks on the north bank just now, Cao Wenzhao did not find where the Tartar sweat camp was, so it was only on the south bank.

As soon as he reached the river bank, he took a short look at the Tartar camp in front of him while waiting for the army to gather.He found that not far in front of him, hundreds of Tartars had already gathered, surrounded by a few yurts that were obviously different from the surrounding ones, and there were more Tartars holding torches and rushing here.

Cao Wenzhao understood at the first sight that this place was obviously where the important figures of the Tartars lived.He looked slightly to the right and found that Huang Degong had already landed.

Time waits for me, Cao Wenzhao immediately took the lead and rushed forward bravely to the place where the Tartars gathered.

Cao Wenzhao guessed right, Sai Sang was in the crowd at this time.He was looking in panic at the burning north shore.At this moment, he already understood that he must have been attacked by the Ming army.

He didn't know how many people from the Ming army had come, so he hesitated back and forth between escaping and rescuing the North Shore.
