Chapter 536: Really let me find my weakness

536 really found the weakness

[Today's second chapter is presented, the old rules, continue to ask for a collection subscription, brothers, please! ] 】

If the other two teams of flying eagle cavalry arrived, the cavalry in Li Zixiao's hands would be more than 3,200 people, which would already exceed the number of Tartar cavalry.

You must know that the 3,000 Tatar cavalry in the hands of Tumen Feidong's battalion lost more than 600 people in the previous battle with Li Zixiao's guard battalion alone.

After these few days and Luo Chao's weak losses, at this time, there were only more than 2,300 Tartar elite horses left in the hands of Tumen Fei Dongying.

Two days later, more than 2,000 cavalry from the Eagle Battalion arrived, and although the Tumen Fei Dong Battalion had already received a report from the scouts, they knew that such a cavalry was coming.

But he didn't dare to attack, because there were a lot of flying eagle cavalry, which was about the same as the cavalry in his hands.

If it had been placed before, Tumen Fei Dongying would definitely have taken the initiative to attack before Li Zixiao found out, mobilized all his strength, and ate this Flying Eagle Battalion cavalry in one bite.

However, after the previous battle, Li Zixiao's equal strength actually defeated one of his cavalry, which made Tumen Feidongying have to reassess the strength of Li Zixiao's cavalry.

So, when more than 2,000 flying eagle cavalry arrived, although the Tumen Feidong battalion was unwilling, it still gave up the attack.

He was worried that if this Ming cavalry was intercepted, if they could not defeat the other party in a short period of time, Li Zixiao and Luo Chao on the side of the camp would get the news and send troops to rescue.

When the time comes, they are likely to be defeated in one battle, and the number of Tartar cavalry in his hands is really limited.

"Your Majesty! The Ming army is strong, and my subordinates are afraid that they won't be able to stop them! ”

Tumen Fei Dongying watched as more than 2,000 cavalry of the Flying Eagle Battalion successfully rushed into the White Dragon Army camp, and said with an ugly face.

Because, with the arrival of the cavalry of the Flying Eagle Battalion, the total strength of Luo Chao's subordinates has reached more than 7,000 people.

Such a huge group of men and horses, not only with muskets, but also with artillery, and now even the only short cavalry has made up for it, which is no longer something they can compete with.

"Someone, send a letter to the emperor, it means that the army is strong, and the situation here is not good, but we will fight to the end and drag the Ming army."

Tumen Fei Dongying decided to send a letter to Huang Taiji, and the situation here in Zhenjiang had deteriorated to the point that they could not control it.

"Haha, the Eagle Battalion has arrived, and now there is no need to fear a raid by the Tartar cavalry.

The order goes down, rests for a day, and attacks the city tomorrow, and I will take Phoenix in front of the Tartars. ”

Li Zixiao had a sneer on his face and gave an order.

On the second day, Luo Chao's troops returned to Phoenix City and began to prepare for the siege.

At this time, Tumen Feidong Battalion had two choices, one was to lead more than 2,000 cavalry under his command to enter Phoenix City and assist the defenders in the city to resist the attack of the White Dragon Army.

The second is to give up Phoenix City, so that he can keep more than 2,000 Tartar Elite Horsemen in his hands, as long as he is not wiped out for a day, he is a huge threat to the rear of the White Dragon Army.

In the end, Tumen Feidong made the same choice as Ilgen Jue Luo Doro before, choosing to abandon the city and keep the cavalry in his hand.

Thundered!

The sound of artillery in Phoenix City was deafening, and the White Dragon Army, under the command of Li Zixiao, stormed Phoenix City.

In Phoenix City, there were only less than 300 Tartars, more than 1,000 traitor soldiers, and more than 2,000 young and strong guards at this time.

The only ones who had some combat power were those Tartars and traitor soldiers, and as for those young and strong, they were all temporarily recruited, and they were so frightened when they heard the sound of cannons that they couldn't get up on the city wall.

When Ilgen Jue Luo Doro left Phoenix City, he took most of the Tartar troops with him, and it was impossible for the soldiers in Phoenix City to stop the White Dragon Army at this time.

Unless, Tumen Fei Dongying led more than 2,000 Tartar elites into the city, but he did not do so.

In the eyes of Tumen Fei Dongying, the Tartar cavalry under his command is good at field warfare, and it is much worse for defending the city.

At this time, if he leads the army into Phoenix City, it will be tantamount to throwing himself into the net, at most he will defend Phoenix City for a period of time, and in the end, he will most likely be captured by the White Dragon Army.

When the time comes, it will be impossible for them to break through.

Instead of fighting with the White Dragon Army, which they are not good at, he chose the same choice as Ilgen Jue Luo Doro, retaining the cavalry to contain Li Zixiao.

Tumen Fei Dongying believed that even if the White Dragon Army was allowed to defeat Phoenix City, at most they would be allowed to loot in the city.

As long as their cavalry exists for a day, the people in the city, the White Dragon Army, don't want to take it away.

Even, Tumen Feidongying can take the Tartar cavalry in his hand to attack the White Dragon Army in other places, attack the White Dragon Army's relocation of civilians, or logistics supply teams.

"Let's go!"

After Tumen Fei Dongying made a decision in his heart, he gave a decisive order and left here with his cavalry, and he didn't know where he went.

In the end, after a day of fierce attack, Phoenix City was finally captured by the White Dragon Army.

However, Li Zixiao, who entered Phoenix City, could not see any joy on his face, because the Tatar cavalry led by Tumen Fei Dongying disappeared.

"It's really troublesome, just eliminated a threat, another one popped up, it seems that this Tartar general is also a smart man, and knows how to use his only advantage to fight and contain us."

Li Zixiao said with a gloomy face.

Two days later, bad news came from Zhou Dazhu from the dangerous mountain fort he had laid.

Yesterday, they escorted a group of 3,000 people to Zhenjiang Fort, and the team was attacked by a Tartar cavalry.

Not only were the more than 200 White Dragon soldiers and soldiers escorted all killed, but even the more than 3,000 people who were willing to move away were all slaughtered, whether it was the elderly, the weak, women and children, none of them were spared.

The Tartars used the butcher's knife in their hands to tell the people around them that if anyone was willing to move away with the Ming army, this would be the end.

After the news reached the dangerous mountain fort, sure enough, all the people who had received money, grain, and livestock before returned the money, grain, and livestock to the White Dragon Army, kneeling and begging Zhou Dazhu to spare them, and did not dare to move away again.

Zhou Dazhu's work in the previous week or so was all in vain, and even because of the appearance of this elusive Tartar cavalry, his plan to continue to attack Changdian in the north had to be temporarily abandoned.

Peng!

When Li Zixiao received Zhou Dazhu's news, he slapped the armrest of the seat made of sinking wood and stood up.

"What a Tartar, it's really our weakness."

Li Zixiao's face was gloomy, and he said in a cold voice.

"General, my subordinates ask for orders, and I am willing to lead the Flying Eagle Battalion out to find out this Tartar cavalry and exterminate it."

Luo Chao stood up and took the initiative to ask for help.

Obviously, from the moment Tumen Fei Dongying abandoned Phoenix City, he had obviously seen the weakness of the White Dragon Army.

Take advantage of your cavalry, hide your tracks, and wait for an opportunity to choose a fighter, just like a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, which may jump out at any time and bite the White Dragon Army.

And they are all cavalry, coming and going like the wind, unless an ambush circle is set up in advance to ambush this Tartar cavalry.

Otherwise, it would be too difficult for the infantry of the White Dragon Army to completely annihilate the Tartar cavalry.

But Tumen Fei Dongying is also a Tartar veteran, and it is impossible to make such a big mistake.

The only one who had a chance to annihilate the Tatar cavalry was the cavalry of the Flying Eagle Battalion in Li Zixiao's hands.

Li Zixiao glanced at Luo Chao, thought for a moment, and said to Luo Chao: "Okay, I'll give you ten days, if you can find this Tartar cavalry and annihilate it, the Flying Eagle Battalion will be recorded as a first-class merit."

If, after ten days, you still haven't wiped out the Tartar cavalry, then we'll have to change our strategy. ”

"Yes, the subordinates will not disappoint the general." Luo Chao said resolutely.

"Be careful, don't be careless, the leading general of this Tartar cavalry is not easy to deal with." Li Zixiao said to Luo Chao.

"Don't worry, general, your subordinates will be careful."

Subsequently, Luo Chao led more than 2,500 cavalry of the Flying Eagle Battalion to leave Phoenix City and go out to find the Tartar cavalry of Tumen Feidong Battalion.

Li Zixiao stood on the wall of Phoenix City, watching the cavalry of the Flying Eagle Battalion led by Luo Chao turn into a torrent and leave Phoenix.

"Luo Chao, it's up to you, if you can't completely annihilate this Tartar cavalry, you can only change your strategy.

However, it is really aggrieved to let the Tartars of only 2,000 people force us to change the strategic plan that has been set long ago. ”

Li Zixiao was also unwilling, and now he was looking to see if Luo Chao could annihilate the two thousand Tatar cavalry of Tumen Feidong's camp within ten days.

Ten days, this is already the longest time Li Zixiao can tolerate, he can't stay outside the customs for too long, every day is important.

"Send an order to Zhou Dazhu, ask him to suspend the relocation of the people in the dangerous mountain fort, mobilize troops, and lay a great foundation for me as soon as possible.

Even if Luo Chao can't annihilate the Tartar cavalry, he will definitely be able to drag it down, and the Tartar cavalry can't take care of Zhou Dazhu's side. ”

After Li Zixiao left, he sent someone to Zhou Dazhu to give an order, asking him to temporarily abandon the task of relocating the people and continue to go north to lay a great foundation.

After the ruthless slaughter of the Tartar cavalry and the relocation of the people from the more than 3,000 dangerous mountain forts, Li Zixiao estimated that the relocation plan of the people there could not be carried out.

Even if Luo Chao annihilated the Tartar cavalry in the end, those people had already become frightened birds, and I am afraid it would be difficult to cooperate with the migration of the White Dragon Army.

If that's the case, Li Zixiao will have no choice but to resort to coercive measures in the end.

Anyway, Li Zixiao wants to move the people here no matter what, even if he is hated by these people, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, they can't continue to be kept to produce food and weapons for the Tartars.

As long as they arrive on Tamna Island, these people will see the policy implemented by Li Zixiao, even if they have grievances, they will disappear.

The people are actually very simple, if you are good to him, you can make him forget the bad things in the past.

Not only the relocation of the people on the side of Zhou Dazhu's dangerous mountain fort could not be carried out for the time being.

Before Luo Chao was not annihilated, and the two thousand Tartar elite cavalry led by Tumen Fei Dongying, it was impossible for the people to move on the Phoenix side.

Otherwise, the tragedy on Zhou Dazhu's side may still be staged, and Li Zixiao must not allow such a tragedy to happen again.
