Rumble——!

A muffled thunder rolled across the night sky, and I was sleeping in a daze in the sweat tent, and quickly grabbed the scimitar next to the pillow and jumped up, shouting: "Come on." ”

Outside the tent, more than a dozen guards rushed in, and the leader said nervously: "Great Khan, what happened?" ”

"Ben Khan seems to have heard the sound of artillery just now, but the Ming army has come to steal the camp?" I replied with the hilt of the knife in my hand and asked sharply.

The guards couldn't help but look at each other, and the leader replied cautiously: "Great Khan, the Ming army didn't steal the camp, it was just thunder just now." ”

"Thunder?" I listened carefully for a while, but when I heard the sound of insects outside, it was peaceful, and sure enough, there was no abnormality, and the dare was just a false alarm, so I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but immediately said excitedly and loudly: "What did you just say, thunder?" ”

The personal guard at the head nodded inexplicably and said, "Great Khan, it was indeed thunder just now, everyone heard it, and the subordinates don't dare to talk nonsense." ”

Boom——!!

As soon as the words fell, there was a muffled thunder in the sky, followed by a crackling sound, feeling that something hit the top of the sweat tent, I replied with a happy face, and ran out of the tent quickly, and suddenly felt the cool water droplets hit his face, he looked up, and found that the originally clear night sky had become dark and dull at some point, and the moon and stars did not know where to hide, and scattered raindrops fell fluttering.

I couldn't help laughing: "Haha, it's really raining, it's really raining, God help me, God help me!" ”

Woo ......

A flash of lightning pierced the sky, and then the rain rustled down, and the dense raindrops crackled against the yurt like a war drum.

"O all-powerful mountain god, let this rain continue, the harder it falls, the longer it rains, the better." I replied to the sky with his hands raised and shouted, at this moment, he was pious.

Woo ......

Another flash of lightning flashed by, as if the mountain god had heard my call, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and soon the stagnant water was flowing in the low-lying places into small streams.

I replied with ecstasy in his heart, it seemed that he was really the son of destiny on the grassland, he turned around and asked, "What time is it?" ”

"Back to the Great Khan, it's dawn now, and it is estimated that there will be half an hour before dawn." The leader of the guards replied.

With a wave of his scimitar, he said loudly: "Send the order, the whole army will assemble immediately, and attack after dawn." ”

"Great Khan, it's raining heavily, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to attack at this time, right?" The leader of the pro-soldiers couldn't help but question.

Because it is easier to slip in rainy horses' hooves, and the bows used by the Tatar cavalry are all made of ox tendon as a bowstring, although the cow tendon is cheap and easy to use, it has a fatal weakness, that is, it becomes soft when soaked in water, and it cannot be used in rainy days at all, so rainy days are actually not good for Tatar cavalry.

However, in comparison, the rain was obviously more disadvantageous to the Ming army, because the main advantage of the Ming army was in firearms, once the firearms failed, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army would be greatly weakened, and the bow and arrow could not be used, for the Tatar cavalry, the loss of combat power was not large, as long as the horse was under the crotch and the knife was in the hand, they were still powerful Tatar cavalry.

Therefore, in my opinion, the Ming army without firearms is a toothless tiger, not to mention that it has a great advantage in strength, if this cannot defeat the Ming army, it is simply unreasonable.

At the moment, he was in a good mood, and he was not very angry at the question raised by the leader of the guard, he said lightly: "Ben Khan is waiting for this rain, the Ming army has no advantage of firearms, how is it the opponent of my Tatar cavalry, quickly pass the order, if you miss the fighter, Ben Khan wants your head!" ”

The leader of the guards immediately gave the order, and soon the 100,000 Tatar cavalry were assembled in the heavy rain, waiting for a thunderous attack at dawn.

Originally, it was raining heavily in the sky, and it was impossible to launch a night attack in this kind of weather, because the torches could not be lit at all, and everyone's eyes were blackened, and if they didn't get it right, they would cause themselves to step on each other, so they had to wait for dawn to start.

At this moment, I am also wearing armor, protected by the soldiers in the middle, the great shaman is also there, this old man looks like a dead wood, but he is unexpectedly tough, wearing rain gear and standing in the rain without moving.

Time passed minute by minute, the rain was still falling, but the rain had weakened, and at this time my heart was raised, once the rain stopped before dawn, then everything was in vain, he turned his head to look at the great shaman, and saw that the latter looked calm, as always, squinting a pair of old eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

The sky finally gradually brightened, the rain was still falling, I felt that the blood in his body was boiling, he turned over his horse, and with a wave of his hand, the 100,000 army galloped in the rain in the direction of the Ming army's camp.

On this rainy day, even the Tatar cavalry, who were skilled in riding, did not dare to let go of the gallop, because the horse's hooves would really slip, and the war horse was flesh and blood, and if one horse foot was broken, it would be scrapped.

The camp of the Ming army is not far away, that is, fifteen miles, so I quickly led 100,000 troops to advance to two or three miles away in front of the Ming army's formation.

But when I saw the situation in front of the Ming army, I couldn't help but feel sudden, because the Ming army on the opposite side had already set up a formation, the first row was a tight formation of sword and shield hands, behind the sword and shield hands were musketeers with rain gear, and then behind were dense pikemen, and behind were artillery arrays, and the artillery pieces had been fixed, but all covered with tarpaulins.

The rain was still rustling, and all the Ming troops stood quietly in the rain, letting the rain flow down the edge of the hat, and the raindrops hit the tarpaulin on the Franc cannon, making a crackling sound, and the wet flag hung low, just like all the Ming troops, silent in the rain, but the strong murderous aura was precisely in this silent silence and continued to accumulate and sublimate......

At this moment, my heart seemed to be gradually sinking, and the excitement in the blood was slowly silent, it was obvious that the Ming army had expected that they would come to the decisive battle in the rain, so they had already been waiting for it.

This feeling of being guessed by the enemy was very bad, and in an instant, I actually had the idea of retreating, because Xu Jin was too cunning, since he had already anticipated the enemy's opportunity, he must have made all preparations.

So to fight now or not to fight? I was in trouble for a while!
