The Yuan soldiers ran away, leaving behind many cattle, horses and baggage.
What should I do if Li Wenzhong doesn't chase him, but chases him blindly and ambush him?
"Thank you to General Xu. The information he sent said that explosives were thrown on the road to blow up."
Li Wenzhong had a smile on his face. He enjoyed the battle so much that when he came in the evening, he threw explosives at similar places.
If you can outwit someone, no one wants to fight with you, otherwise someone will die.
Even though Yuan Bing was panicked just now after being bombed, he did not immediately organize his men to turn around and kill them. Instead, he waited for the gunmen to load their ammunition.
Few enemies are killed in this way, but one of the own people is not killed.
"This time we can feel at ease for a few days. They lost their luggage and need to go back to get it. The best place is... the area around the Tula River and the Aluhun River."
When Han Zheng was excited, he didn't forget to analyze where Yuan Bing went to regroup.
The location of the two rivers is most suitable for fighting and fighting. You can wait for the enemy to cross the river and attack when the enemy comes.
By that time, the current tactics will no longer work.
The Yuan soldiers waited on the bank while their men crossed the river. If they wanted to finish firing their guns and turn around, they would move slowly in the river and would become targets if they turned around.
"We'll talk about it then. Let's collect the baggage first. It's not that I don't dare to fight a life-and-death battle, but why should the soldiers pay their lives when we clearly have the advantage of weapons?"
Li Wenzhong is not afraid of fighting with the opponent, he is just reluctant to give up and show his incompetence.
Xu Da had just killed dozens of people, so he beat Wang Baobao until he fled in panic. That was Wang Baobao.
The enemies you face are not as powerful as Wang Baobao. If you face Wang Baobao yourself, you should defend and then grind little by little.
…
At dawn the next day, the team from the camp behind brought their things and rushed here.
Holes are being dug here to bury the enemy's corpses, and injured enemies are being treated as much as possible.
"There is dried meat, there is dried meat in their baggage." The soldier checking the baggage shouted happily.
"Naigan, they have prepared so many good things." Another soldier also discovered the treasure.
"We're not bad either. We brought pork floss, so we don't have to cook at the critical moment."
"They are in trouble this time! If we are short of food, we have to find it ourselves."
"They will never die of hunger, they are so powerful! Unless it's winter now."
The soldiers spoke of the Beiyuan people's tenacity, especially their ability to survive.
Li Wenzhong waved his hand, and everyone divided the dried milk and dried meat among them, taking them with them just in case.
The soldiers happily put them away, but were reluctant to eat them, including the meat floss, which could not be used until a critical moment.
Now that Yuan Bing has been beaten away, he happens to be cooking here.
Smoke rises, and people who know how to fish run to the river to fish again.
The injured prisoner was groaning, his face full of horror and confusion.
How did the Ming army treat his injuries? Isn’t it good to keep the medicine for their people to use?
"Take a bite! Whether you can survive or not depends on you. Anyway, I tried my best. You feed him."
A Ming soldier brought a bowl over and asked the lightly injured prisoner next to him to feed the severely injured one.
Li Wenzhong also took a look at the prisoners. Some were injured, while others were hit by their horses and fell off. If they did not surrender, they would die.
This is still a situation where Hongyan was not killed. If Hongyan said he surrendered, people would pretend that they didn't hear him, so he would kill him without fail.
"They are all good laborers. We can get a reward when we go back." Han Zheng looked at the captives with eyes that looked like copper coins.
"Send a message to General Xu, General Feng, and General Tang, telling them that tens of thousands of cattle and horses and a large amount of baggage have been captured by the combined troops of Manzi and Ha Cizhang.
We killed more than 5,000 enemies. Manzi and Ha Ji Zhang retreated. I will not be defeated by them here. "
Li Wenzhong said towards the direction where the Yuan soldiers were retreating that it was finally his turn to open the business.
…
On the other side, Yuan soldiers who had run far away stopped to rest. They took out the dry food they had brought with them and sat by the river, chewing small bites.
Manzi and Ha Cizhang looked ugly, and the battle was lost.
The key to losing was frustrating, why did the Ming army’s firearm...
"How are we going to fight him in the future?" Manzi swallowed the food in his mouth with a sad and angry look on his face.
"Fight the battle across the river and guard by the river to see if they can't cross the river?" Ha Cizhang also thought of this idea.
"If that doesn't work, we'll rush in and kill them with several rounds of fire cannons, as long as they don't run away."
Manzi felt distressed when he talked about this. Last night, he considered that he would rather die than fight the enemy, but in the end...
"Don't worry, think about it again. In addition to blocking by the river and defending the city, can you even the distance from a high position?"
Ha Cizhang comforted Manzi, while he racked his brains to think about it. No matter how much he thought about it, he felt that he had no solution.
The Ming army was equally powerful in battle without such weapons, let alone with more weapons.
Looking at the situation now, the Ming army general Li Wenzhong just didn't want his troops to suffer too many casualties, so he was holding back and fighting.
It doesn't mean that he doesn't have the courage to fight with himself. These Ming troops fought all the way up, especially the generals.
"Look for the river and use the river as a barrier." Manzi agreed with Ha Cizhang's idea. Apart from this, there is not even a mountain here.
There is a big earth bag with no water on it and it is surrounded...
…
"Battle report, battle report, battle report from the north. Great victory, great victory for our army!"
In Nanjing City, Zhu Yuanzhang, who solved Zeng Lu's life problem, was very happy in the past two days.
As a result, the person who delivered the good news ran into the imperial city. Zhu Yuanzhang, who was correcting the question book, saw a group of ministers and they came together.
"Your Majesty, Xu Da sent us good news. He defeated Wang Baobao and arrived at a position more than 20 miles away from Helin City to fight with other King Qin's troops. He will win every battle without losing his own side."
Wang Guangyang handed the battle report to Zhu Yuanzhang and briefly explained the situation.
"Come and see, that Wang Baobao is nothing more than this."
Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have forgotten how he praised Wang Baobao, and even wanted his second son to marry Wang Baobao's sister.
He unfolded the battle report and read it carefully word by word. After reading it, he leaned back, tilted his neck back, looked at the ceiling of the hall and slowly exhaled.
The battle report said that Wang Baobao wanted to lure the Ming army forward, and there was an ambush around. The scouts used their telescopes to discover the situation early.
The middle route army planned to use a trick and wanted to climb the mountain and fight from a high position. However, they used a temporary trick and detonated a large amount of explosives, which directly destroyed Wang Baobao's army.
In a series of battles, Xu Da's troops used telescopes, flintlock guns, and explosives to finally defeat Wang Baobao at the critical moment.
This shows that Wang Baobao is still very powerful, but he suffers because he is not familiar with the new weapons of the Ming army.
Without these auxiliary weapons and tools, even if Wang Baobao could be defeated, the Ming army itself would suffer heavy losses.
"What a pity!" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed with emotion as he sat upright again.
He felt sorry for Wang Baobao, who lost at the hands of an expert from Xiaqiu Village.
The master did not go to fight and still stayed in Xiaqiu Village, but helped the Ming Dynasty's army gain an absolute advantage.
From the number of livestock, to the quality of supplies, and medicine, and finally to the reconnaissance tools and weapons.
Wang Baobao was defeated by technology and money, both of which are good things!
