Chapter 29 Start (1)

The sudden military situation made Zhu Di's face solemn, which was originally relaxed. Since entering Goryeo, the one he has been very guarded against was the cavalry of Goryeo.

The Goryeo cavalry never emerged. He thought that the Goryeo king had a petty aura and was reluctant to leave his capital. But unexpectedly, Suishang actually let the cavalry run behind them. Moreover, with all his strength, there were 20,000 cavalrymen.

Although these 20,000 cavalry were not heavy armored cavalry like the Ming Dynasty who needed four or five light cavalry services to serve, but they were also four-legged cavalry. Moreover, the Goryeo cavalry was not weak, and they were not only good at fighting on flat ground, but also crossing the mountains and rivers.

In the military tent, in front of the huge map, Zhu Di and his generals stared at the marking points on the map.

Now the Goryeo cavalry is in Sichuan, and further forward is Tokugawa, and further further is Anzhou, the transportation hub behind the Ming army.

Damn, such a bold and a big deal! Zhu Di sneered in the tent.

General Zhu Neng said, Qiansui, I thought there was only one possibility for the Goryeo soldiers to circumnavigate in Sichuan. As he said that, he pointed to the map and continued to speak. Goryeo reinforcements rushed to Pyongyang, seeking field battle with our army. The Goryeo cavalry bypassed the main force of our army and rushed straight to the rear for our food route!

There were about 70,000 reinforcements from Goryeo. The Central Army reported that there were about 30,000 in Pyongyang City. Nearly 100,000 people did not need to win in field battles. As long as the food route in the rear was cut off, the army would be in chaos. At that time, Goryeo attacked from the front and tail, and the army would be in danger!

Want to blind his heart!

Seeing that the generals were worried on their faces, Zhu Di smiled and said, before attacking Pyongyang, the Grand Grand Army had already gone to the port and Jinli outside Pyongyang. The food, grass and weapons of our 200,000 army were transported directly from Shandong by sea. He intercepted our food and birds?

The generals suddenly realized, Qiu Fu smiled and said, "Thousands of years of long-term thinking......

Don’t flatter me, it was the prince’s thoughts! Zhu Di felt a little sad. It turned out that he had thought of these things from the beginning, and designed a trap to make the Koreans play around.

Even if the food route cannot be intercepted, the Goryeo cavalry will surround the back of the army and launch a raid! It is not easy for the central army to live! Zhu Neng pondered and continued to speak. If he was not careful, if there were 200,000 cavalrymen there to take advantage of the loopholes...? As he said, he said even more worriedly, Qiansui, the cavalry among our 200,000 troops in this battle, Dingyuan Hou led a group of them, and the rest were all here!

Then let’s fight quickly and destroy these 70,000 people before the Korean cavalry came over! Zhu Di looked around and wrote to the emperor’s grandson. I would launch an attack from the flanks of the Goryeo reinforcements, and then he led the army to cover the killing!

Let's fight first? The generals hesitated.

The Yan family's troops had only 30,000 troops, but there were 70,000 reinforcements marching. In fact, it was not that they could not be fought, but that in the final analysis, these generals of the Yan family were also a little careful and were unwilling to die and injured too much. You should know that the troops under the King of Yan were the capital of the Yan family.

These people followed Zhu Di for a long time and knew his thoughts and wanted to follow him. If he was really killed or injured, what confidence would he have to challenge the court in the future?

Why are you afraid? I’m not afraid, you are afraid of a bird!

How could Zhu Di not know the thoughts of his confidants? He laughed loudly. A group of fools didn't frown even after fighting against the Tartars. What was going on at this critical moment?

As he said that, his face turned solemn, more than 30,000 to 70,000, but one to two, one to two, one to one and two people were killed and they were alive. Then, he waved his fists, one to two, and beat him up!

Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled again. It was better to change the formation than to be in the battle. Besides, the Emperor's Grandson's side may be faster than we thought! Besides, there is also the Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi who hid in the dark with four thousand iron cavalry. The Old Marquis Wang, four thousand to twenty thousand, may not be able to beat more than twenty thousand, but he can definitely bite him!

After saying that, he said in his heart, boy, don’t let me down on you!

Zhu Yunqi's central army was very fast, and the vanguard had already crossed the Datong River and lined up along the riverside to deploy defenses.

First there were three elite infantry phalanxes, each with 7,200 people, which were listed in front of the formation and were known as three walls, followed by the central cavalry, and the artillery was swimming on the high ground on the right.

In this battle, most of the firearms and soldiers from the Ming Dynasty went out with the army. There were 2,604 artillery soldiers and 128 artillery vehicles, carrying a total of 256 doors of size.

In the front of the infantry, there is also a musket battalion, with a total of 3,109 officers and soldiers, 512 single-eyed musket soldiers, and 768 scattered gun soldiers. (The predecessor of the tiger cannon)

In addition, 256 large and small cannons, 512 muskets of the rear army, as well as full cannon truck parts, were spared.

(Infantry is in front and cavalry is in the back. With the help of the smoke of artillery cavalry, they charge back the scattered line of the opponent's infantry, and then the infantry rushed forward alternately. The cavalry took off the flanks and attacked, constantly squeezing the enemy's space, and finally solved it with elite cavalry. This is the common tactic of the peak Ming army. Later, Li Zicheng did the same, and Gustav of Sweden did the same.)

Fu Youde was sitting in the Kaicheng Highlands and staring at Pyongyang. Zhu Yun-he dragon flag was erected on the front line. In addition, there were tens of thousands of other troops, led by Yongping Hou Xie Cheng, and arranged on the right side of Pyongyang City, Datong River Bay. The entire Ming army, waiting for the position of the Goryeo reinforcements, was like a half-bent and bright moon hanging upside down.

When they were lined up, the Ming cavalry had already released their horses from afar, and all they sent were elite knights to investigate the enemy situation.

In this battle, the Ming army waited for the hard work, waiting for the Goryeo reinforcements to plunge in. Even if he didn't come, Zhu Yunyu believed that with Zhu Di's temperament, he would be unable to bear it and force the Goryeo people to get into the pocket here.

When the Goryeo people were about to reach Pyongyang, they also had four reconnaissance cavalry, and the large forces of both sides had not met. The cavalry had already begun to confront each other in secret, but the cavalry of the Ming army was not slim. Often, the Goryeo soldiers disappeared as soon as they saw their figures. If they went to pursue, they would encounter continuous attacks from small groups of cavalrymen of the Ming army.

~~~

In midsummer, the urgently traveling Goryeo reinforcements were exhausted and sweating all over.

The head coach Li Zhilan wiped the hot sweat from his face on the war horse, constantly urging his troops to continue to speed up.

Report! A scout from the Ming army was found in front of you!

After listening to the cavalry's report, Li Zhilan's face showed a bit of solemnity. It was the third time that she had discovered the Ming army's scout for the third time in two days.

Moreover, the opponent's scouts are more than once, which means that the opponent's main force is not far away.

In an instant, Li Zhilan made an accurate judgment. The Ming army did not continue to attack Pyongyang, but was waiting for him to bring people to the field to fight.

The command of the entire army to stop advancing! Li Zhilan gave a loud order and said to the personal soldiers around her, slow down, the cavalry is the vanguard of the entire army, and the infantry lined up behind and advance slowly. If you find the enemy situation, you should not fight in a long time.

The main function of his reinforcements along the way was to hold back the main force of the Ming army and buy time for Jing'an Jun who led the cavalry around.

It would be better if the Ming army did not attack the city, and it would be better if they didn't take the initiative to attack him. Li Zhilanba had to continue to drag the stalemate. What the Goryeo people need now is time.

But just after his order was issued, another cavalry suddenly rushed over.

Reported, the Ming army brigade was found thirty miles away on the flank. Thousands of cavalry were on the head, and countless infantry were followed by!

What? Li Zhilan was stunned on the spot, and then whipped the scouts and explored the horse with a horse whip. How did you reconnaissance? Don’t you know the enemy on the side?

After saying that, he ordered loudly, spearman, formation!

The Ming army could not have imagined that the Goryeo people would dare to send 20,000 cavalry to the back. The Goryeo people could not have imagined that after entering the land of Goryeo, the Ming army would have divided troops.

More importantly, in order to prevent the whereabouts of King Zhu Di of Yan, there was no way to leave any living in order to prevent the Goryeo people from discovering their whereabouts.

However, first of all, I thought that these things were meaningless. The Goryeo soldiers and horses in the marching rushed to camp and dispatched cavalry and fast horses to communicate with Pyongyang.

Thirty miles apart, just a blink of an eye.

Just when the Goryeo position was a little bit, a cavalry suddenly appeared on the hills in the distance, like a ghostly cavalry.

Li Zhilan looked at the distant hills and said in shock, "One person!"?

There was only one Ming army. The knight immediately rode his horse to climb up the top of the mountain. The red tassels and feathers on the helmet fluttered in the wind. Then, the war horses flew into the air on the top of the mountain and neighed loudly.

I saw the cavalry on the horse, with a large gun in his hand, and then pulled it hard.

Hula, the big banner with the word Ming flutters in the wind on the top of the Goryeo Mountain.

Further back, trembling sounds came from the sky and the earth, as if the green mountains on both sides were shaking. Countless infantry soldiers began to emerge on the horizon, and tens of thousands of people were in a row.

Prepare for battle! Li Zhilan gave a loud order, the archers were on the right high ground, the cavalry were on the left high ground, and the spearmen were in front!

The Goryeo army, which had been continuously for several miles, began to adjust and change formations under the command of the commander of the general.

But at this time, the tremor of the earth became even stronger. On the front battlefield, the figures of the Ming army's cavalry had already appeared.

Ming Dynasty!

The horse's hooves and the roar of the Ming army came into the ears of the Goryeo army.

Li Zhilan stared at the charge of the cavalry with a ferocious face.

Ming Dynasty!

As we get closer, we can see the equipment of the Qingming Army cavalry. The cavalry raised in the center are cavalry holding a cavalry with a long cavalry and light cavalry holding a bow and arrow on both sides.

Stay calm! Li Zhilan shouted loudly.

Ming Dynasty!

Boom! Boom! The earth began to shake violently, as if it was about to be shattered by the iron hooves of the Ming army.

Wan Sheng!

kill!

Another short but shocking cry, the Ming army had already charged in front of the Goryeo army in the smoke and dust.

At the same time, thousands of Koryo cavalry on the high ground also began to charge backwards. In an instant, there was nothing else in the world except the sound of horse hooves.

The Ming army flag was red, and the Korean clothing was still white. Two torrents were about to collide.

Raise the bow!

Although they knew that when the cavalry charged, the robes could not hear their shouts. The Ming cavalry generals roared loudly while waving the battle flag in their hands.

In the blink of an eye, the Ming cavalry behind the lancers stood up straight in the stirrups, and the bows and arrows in their hands pulled into the full moon.

Buzz!

The arrow branches covering the sky were flying all over the sky, and the charge of the Koryo cavalry was like seedlings hit by hail, falling head-on as they advanced.

boom!

With a loud bang, the heavy armored cavalry raised by the Ming army penetrated like a sharp blade, and the Goryeo cavalry that charged backwards. The spear in their hands provoked the Koryeo knights, but the saber in the other party's hands was not hurt by the length.

The Goryeo cavalry not only had to face the Ming army's cavalry, but also had to face bows and arrows, and the meteor hammers were flying.

When the Ming cavalry charged, the meteor hammer with iron chains in his hands kept shaking. When the two sides were about to collide, they suddenly threw it out with a whistling and spinning.

No matter if the person is rotated, the person and horse will be broken if it is touched by the meteor hammer with impact!

Let you see what cavalry is today!

On the top of the mountain, Zhu Di looked at the battlefield and laughed loudly. The men rushed in from the flanks of the Goryeo! After saying that, he pulled the rope of the iron helmet and shouted, Brothers, follow me! Kill for the Ming Dynasty!
