In fact, Huang Taiji's guess was correct.
The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first.
Now that transportation is extremely underdeveloped, both Zhu Youjian and Zhu Dingguo attach great importance to the defense of Youtun.
Except for Yan Yingyuan, who has defensive talent. The 50,000 soldiers in Youtun are all Ming elites.
In addition to the elite border troops from various places, these Ming Dynasty elites also have 5,000 Beijing battalions and 500 biochemical soldiers.
The Tanma that Huang Taiji encountered were all led by biochemical soldiers.
These biochemical soldiers are powerful and have extremely accurate marksmanship. In addition, they are all equipped with telescopes and Ming Type 1 rifles (Mine rifles).
Jiannu Tanma is a living target. Often they go to hell just after discovering the Ming army.
Even if the probing horse team is not powerful enough to detect the opponent, coupled with the long shooting range of the Ming-1 rifle, these slaves will not be able to take any advantage at all.
...
"Send the order, seal the city gates and prepare for battle."
After hearing the news reported by the soldiers, Yan Yingyuan hurriedly issued preparations for war.
Youtun is the Ming Dynasty's grain warehouse in Liaodong.
The safety of Youtun is directly related to the situation of the next war.
In such an important place, it is normal for slaves to be discovered occasionally, but it is problematic for multiple groups of Tatar spies to discover it in a short period of time.
Following Yan Yingyuan's order.
The soldiers standing on the turret quickly loaded ammunition for the Franchise machine on the turret and the Lumi gun in their hands.
The soldiers who came down from the turret for activities walked up the wooden stairs in an orderly manner to the top of the turret.
After all the soldiers stationed in the turret went up, a group of soldiers hurried over and took away the long wooden ladder from the turret.
The young men who were building defensive facilities outside the city were withdrawing to Youtun in an orderly manner.
Half an hour later, when the information about the slave-building troops was reported to Yan Yingyuan, the entire Youtun was ready for battle.
When night fell, a Jiannu cavalry of about a thousand people arrived in front of the north gate of Youtun. Seeing the tight defense, the leader of Jiannu immediately faced the city wall and shouted in poor Mandarin. road:
"Listen, Mingzhu on the city. I am Aixinjueluo Aibaer, the first general under Hou Jin Zhenghuang's banner. I advise you to hand over Youtun within half an hour, otherwise no chickens or dogs will be left after the city is broken."
"Bang bang bang." The other person's response was just a few gunshots from the turret.
Due to the relatively long distance and the fact that Aibar kept walking back and forth on his horse, several rounds of projectiles failed to hit the opponent, but this move did scare Aibar.
"The Ming army's fire blunderbuss is so powerful." Aibal said in his heart. At the same time, he secretly took a few steps back.
"My purpose is to lure the Ming army to attack. I retreated to avoid being accidentally injured by the Ming army's weapons. If I were injured, Master Baylor's plan would really come to nothing."
"Listen, Mingzhu in the city..." Aibar took a few steps back and continued to curse.
"What are the Jiannu shouting outside the city?"
Because they were far away, and because Aibei'er's Mandarin was so poor, although the Ming army in the city could guess that the other party was cursing, they couldn't understand what the other party was saying at all?
"Send the order and ask Zhu Wu to lead 1,000 heavy cavalry out of the north gate to kill the opponent's majesty. Remember, you can only pursue for 3 miles, and you must come back after 3 miles."
Although he knew that Jiannu was so arrogant, he must have been prepared, and there was even a high possibility that there was an ambush. But in Yan Yingyuan's view, since the other party dares to throw bait, why can't he bite him hard?
The purpose of this group of slaves must be to lure the army into battle. Facing 1,000 cavalry, no matter how cautious the opponent is, they will never run away at the first sight.
As long as the opponent dares to fight with the heavy cavalry, they will definitely be surprised by that time.
Soon, the city gate was opened. Zhu Wulian led 1,000 cavalry to slowly clear the city gate. After organizing the team outside the city, they continued to drive slowly towards Jiannu.
Jiannu on the side was dumbfounded.
"Damn it, you are still a cavalryman, I'm afraid you have just learned how to ride a horse! What do you mean by the generals of the Ming Dynasty? Do you look down on our Hou Jin? Are you going to die if you only send these few people out?"
Seeing the performance of the Ming army on the opposite side, Jiannu's team suddenly exploded.
"When the opponent is out of the range of the Ming Army, see if I don't tear the leading young general of the Ming Army to pieces."
"Haha, don't fight with me, I want to fight five of them."
.....
"When the Ming army is out of range, beat me to death," Aibar said with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
In its opinion, this Ming army young general must have offended the Ming Dynasty guard general and was sent to die. They also only sent 1,000 people here just to humiliate themselves.
Since he wanted to humiliate himself, he would destroy all the Ming troops leaving the city and let the Ming people in the city know how powerful he was.
As for what Lord Baylor said before, luring the Ming army to pursue them, Aibar could only pray that the Ming army would be completely destroyed. After that, the Ming Dynasty's defenders would send out people to pursue them for the sake of face.
If the general of the Ming Dynasty continues to pretend to be a grandson, he has nothing to do, right? With the heads of thousands of Ming troops, Lord Beile would not blame himself.
Soon the distance between the two sides was less than 30 steps. As the flag beside Zhu Wu waved, 1,000 Ming army cavalry pulled out their riding whips and slapped the horse's butt hard.
Then 1,000 cavalrymen, led by Zhu Wu, rushed towards Jiannu like Li Xuan's arrows.
"No, I've been fooled." Seeing the Ming army's behavior, Aiba immediately guessed that he had been fooled. How could someone who can whip a war horse at the same time not be an elite?
But now that the distance between the two sides is too close, Aibar can only bite the bullet.
"Kill, kill the bright pig"
Aibar's roar has not yet finished. Many Jiannu have already accelerated towards the Ming army.
However, because the distance was too close, many of Jiannu's war horses had not yet picked up their speed, and the two teams collided with each other.
Zhu Wu took the lead, waving the spear in his hand towards the nearest slave barrel. The Jiannu wanted to block him with a knife, but in the end he was a step too slow. Zhu Wu stabbed him in the right shoulder. The strong force directly knocked the opponent off his horse. Then Zhu Wu used his spear to , swept left and right, and the Jiannu whom they encountered were swept off their horses.
After leaving the horse behind, Zhu Wu ignored him. In this case, there was no difference between leaving the horse behind and death.
"Damn the Ming army." Aibar yelled.
One inch long, one inch strong. The long spears equipped by the Ming army were longer than the sabers equipped by Hou Jin. In addition, in order to avoid being overtaken by the Ming army. All the troops he brought were equipped with leather armor. Now that they have just fought, Hou Jin is already at a disadvantage.
However, Aibar didn't feel anything. Although the spear was good, it was still not as flexible as the saber in his hand. As long as the two sides fought together, it was not certain who would win and who would die.
"boom"
Before Aibar could give the order, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw a hole the size of a finger on the breastplate on his chest, and the hole was still bleeding.
"Is he shot? Who is it? Who dares to sneak attack me." Then his consciousness continued to sink, and he didn't pay attention and was swept off his horse by a Ming soldier next to him.
