Chapter 136: Operation Cold Front

But Wang Zhen believed it, maybe he was lying to himself. After seeing that he had withdrawn first, he immediately ordered to go out of the camp to find a water source.

It was this order that the soldiers removed the barrier, jumped out of the trench, and ran desperately towards a small river fifteen miles away.

But it was just three or four miles away, and tens of thousands of elite iron horsemen suddenly appeared and rushed into the chaotic army of the Ming Dynasty.

Soldiers to 10,000, boundless, soldiers to 100,000, grounded.

The Wara army besieged on all sides, and the cavalry ravaged the formation, wielding long knives and slashing the Ming army, and the Ming army suffered heavy casualties. Everywhere the saber passed, all the heads flew high, and while blood was flying, they also shouted loudly, "Those who disarm and throw blades will not be killed!" ”

In times of crisis, we can see the shamelessness of the Ming officials: the slogan of the Wara army's persuasion is "those who disarm and throw blades will not be killed", as long as they lose their armor and put down their weapons. But in order to save their lives, these officials actually took off a single piece, and trampled on each other naked, and more were trampled to death by their own people than by the Warat army.

At that time, the Warat army was actually out of formation and had no intention of killing the enemy, because they were busy making a fortune - picking up "gold, silver, jewelry, and precious goods" to rob. If one or two tough generals stand up at this time and raise their arms and make a counter-charge, maybe they will turn the tide of the battle. Cao Cao did such a thing during the Three Kingdoms period, and Qin Qiong did it under Zhang Xutuo and Li Mi, but unfortunately Wang Zhen was not Cao Cao, and there was no Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao among the generals of the Ming army. Everyone was busy taking off their clothes to save their lives, and the tragic situation after taking off their clothes has become a laughing stock of history.

Looking at Yingzong's house, he didn't get off the horse and sit down at all, but broke through and escaped under the strict protection of Jinyiwei, but unfortunately everyone was busy taking off their clothes at that time, and no one responded to support. The Jinyi Guards failed to break through alone, and finally Zhu Qizhen became a page on the sea, and the lonely boat floated under the protection of the guard general Fan Zhong, if Yang Chendong did not appear, he would be like a little chicken, and he would be dragged to the north by the Wara soldiers......

From the time he left the Beijing Division, Yang Chendong was like a bystander, watching everything that happened around him.

The Ming Dynasty army was defeated again and again, and one erroneous order after another was issued by Wang Zhen's mouth, Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was like a puppet, he only knew how to nod and agree, and he couldn't debate right and wrong at all.

This is a close understanding of ancient warfare, and it is also a close observation of the military power of the Ming Dynasty.

Even if some orders were wrong and were opposed by the ministers, Zhu Qizhen agreed and Wang Zhen carried it out, even if Yang Chendong deliberately wanted to change anything, he couldn't do it. One can only watch step by step as the army falls into siege, is disintegrated, and finally the whole campaign is completely lost.

Among them, what Yang Chendong can do is really limited. Facing Wang Zhen, who is in charge of the actual military power of hundreds of thousands of troops, unless he can hold the other party hostage, it will be impossible to have any dominance in the war.

Everything until the balance of the war was completely reversed, and when the final moment finally came, the battle of Tumu could be called a farce, with no cavalry hedging, no generals fighting bravely to kill the enemy, no decisive battle of large corps, and no spectacular scene of the three battalions of firearms firing on all fronts. The timing of the general attack was when the Ming army's camp was loosened and the camp was moved to get water, whether it was a plan to deceive the peace first or the Ming army took the initiative to get water, it was no longer important.

"Young master, it's messy, it's all messy." Hu Mang's eyes were full of vigilance and looked around, the five or four guns hidden under his sleeves had already been loaded, and the safety had been opened, but whenever he found anyone trying to approach and threaten the young master, he would not hesitate to shoot, killing the enemy.

"Hey." A sigh came from Yang Chendong's mouth.

This sigh is for the hundreds of thousands of Ming troops!

This sigh is for the decline of the Ming Dynasty!

This sigh is also a sigh to end the chaos in front of you!

"Pass the order and implement it according to the first plan." Yang Chendong's gaze was still cold at this time, but if he looked closely, there was more vividness and hope than just now.

At the command of the order, the hundreds of people who had been roaming around the area began to move. Compared to those around them who were completely out of order, and even undressed and unarmoured, they were well-dressed and fast, and each carried out the order according to the previous plan.

Wang Zhen.

This eunuch, who only knows how to grab power and grab money, is like a headless fly at the moment, looking at it with all his eyes, his eyes constantly rolling up and down, looking for a place to live.

For him, the defeat of the army is not terrible, as long as he can live, everything will be there. It won't be long before he can reorganize a new army and go to war. Of course, he may have such ability, but whether he still has such courage is to say otherwise.

Simu was still blinking rapidly, and suddenly someone flashed past him. In the chaotic army, such a scene is too common, the soldiers do not know the generals, the generals do not know the soldiers, and they are completely running around like headless flies.

But just when a figure flashed by his side, Wang Zhen felt a pain in his neck, and habitually reached out to touch it, and a stream of irrepressible blood sprayed into his hand, and the hot flashes made his eyes quickly widen, followed by Zhang Shouting and shouting.

"Help... Save me... Someone... Someone killed me..."

Wang Zhen was still awake at this moment, knowing that someone had done a black hand to him at this moment. But in the chaotic battlefield, how common it is to die one, even if he is the eunuch of the palm seal of the celebrant eunuch, even if he is the most favored by Yingzong, but at this moment, no one is paying attention to him.

Holding the severed neck with one hand, as if trying to plug the bloody opening; Holding one hand up and swinging it constantly, as if trying to attract attention.

Keep this action, one second, two seconds, three seconds... About seven or eight breaths passed, and he fell to his knees with a thud, and then his eyes showed a gray color, and his face showed a strong sense of unwillingness.

He was unwilling, he was obviously in power, why did he fall to the ground.

He was unwilling, how much the emperor believed in himself, and there was a great future waiting for him.

He was unwilling, he would die so unclearly, that is, when he died, he didn't even figure out who did it.

He was unwilling, but he was indeed dead......

Wang Zhen died. Dead in the chaos, no one will pay attention to him at all. Even if someone sees it, they can only wait to step on it to vent their personal anger.

Compared with Wang Zhen, who died in the hands of Leng Feng, Wang Zuo, the secretary of the household department, and Kuang Ye, the secretary of the military department, were saved by Leng Feng. Hu Mang and Xiao Feng rescued the two Shangshu respectively and rushed to Yang Chendong's side.

Compared with the two, Kuang Ye's clothes are good, and his mental outlook is also good. How to say that it is also the book of the Ministry of War, and the integrity that should still exist, but the button on the shirt that is misplaced still indicates that I am afraid that it will not kill those who disarm and throw blades in the Wara army!" Under the slogan, he was also upset.

Speaking of which, who is not afraid of death? In the face of death, it is not an exaggeration to make any reaction, at least not wrong, because it often replaces a human instinct and essence.

Kuang Ye just remembered a few buttons wrongly, which was indeed much better than Wang Zuo. Because of us, the head of the household, the robe had already been taken off at this time, and he was just wearing an underwear, and it was still wrinkled, very ill-fitting, and it looked like the kind of clothes that I didn't know where to snatch it and put it on my body temporarily.

For Wang Zuo to have such a performance, Yang Chendong is not surprised at all. Literati, integrity should be there, but in the chaos of the army, under the influence of others, it will be completely chaotic, and even doing some things that I didn't dare to think about before is reasonable.

When the two Shangshu were brought to Yang Chendong, they naturally blushed, and they felt ashamed of their current performance, but soon this feeling was gone, and it was replaced by curiosity.

They were curious about why, in such a chaotic situation, this prince who was just a fifth-grade official was not flustered, not only that, but there were also more than a dozen or twenty powerful men standing beside him.

Compared with the panic of the other soldiers, these people stood straight, their expressions were extremely serious, and their eyes looked around like a reckol, and the vigilance was clearly to tell other people not to walk here at will, otherwise, the consequences would be very serious.

The surprise in the hearts of the two Shangshu rose, and when a lot of whys jumped in their minds, another group of people came in the distance, and their proximity made the two nervous again.

"Don't worry, it's your own people." Noticing the performance of the two Shangshu, Yang Chendong whispered, which was like the warm sunshine in the cold winter, which immediately relaxed their minds.

It was the Leng Feng of the first battalion and one company of the Yang family's new army who came from afar. Under their protection, Ding Xuan, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, Wang Yonghe, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, Yang Shan, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Deng Li, the right deputy of the Imperial Procuratorate, Huang Yangzheng, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, Liu Rong, the Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, and Ling Zhu, the Shaoqing of Shangbao Temple, were brought to Yang Chendong.

"That's all?" Looking at the seven people who came over, Yang Chendong asked Leng Feng with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"It's just that some people are still intact, others trample on each other and die, and some have been stripped as clean as if they were who is who." A cold front platoon commander who led the team stood up and said.
