Galtu said to Abatai worriedly: "Lord Belle, something is wrong, this situation is a bit like the previous two days, did Minggou collect the grain along the way first?" ”

Abatai was taken aback, and glanced at Gartu, it is not impossible to do this, Ming Gou's trick can be played for the first time, and naturally he can play it for the second time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"But even if it's true, what do they want to do?" Gaertu said puzzledly, "In such a short period of time, the area they can control is limited, and it is nothing more than to move some hands and feet for more than ten miles along the way to create some trouble for our supplies, but what else can we do except make our march a little slower?" ”

Abatai couldn't figure it out, but out of safety, he instructed Gartu: "Slow down, slow down, be careful that the dog still has a back hand." As long as we don't mess up our positions, there is no Ming army in Shandong that dares to fight with Dajin. ”

If you think about it, if you can fight against the Dajin warriors in the wilderness with a random army, there will be no entry this time. As for slowing down the pace of the march, it will delay more time, and it will inevitably be taken advantage of by Azig to wear small shoes, but there are more lice and no itching, and there are more debts, and it is already delayed for seven or eight days anyway, and it doesn't matter if it takes another day or two.

The army originally planned to enter Qingzhou Mansion within three days, cross Jinan Mansion to Beizhili within five days, and rush to Shunyi before the agreed time for Azig to leave the customs, but because of the small actions of the Qiong Navy, the supply was difficult, and they could not march in a hurry hungry, so they stopped and stopped, and three days passed, and they had not yet left Laizhou.

At the same time, Xia Nan and the others, who were looking forward to Dengzhou, finally waited for the fleet. Xia Nan immediately issued an order to the fleet, and all the officers and men of the 1st and 2nd regiments did not get off the ship, but simply replenished water and vegetables, and then the independent regiment also boarded the ship, and almost all the forces of the Qiong navy went straight to Laizhou Bay.

In the summer, the blocking site in the southern election was Changyi County, which borders Laizhou Bay in the north, located at the junction of Laizhou and Qingzhou, and belonged to Pingdu Prefecture, the capital of Laizhou. Except for the same name, this Changyi is not directly related to Liu He, the king of Changyi, who was historically known as the "Emperor of the Han Dynasty", whose fief was located in Juye County, Heze City.

At this time, Changyi County was only a small county town with a sparse population and no attention from the government, and the city walls were even rammed earth, and there were no bricks on the outside, which looked dilapidated. Although compared to other state capitals and county seats, the walls of Changyi looked vulnerable and easy to breach, but when Abatai led his troops through here to Dengzhou, he may have felt too poor and had no oil and water, so he did not have the intention of plundering at all. When Xia Nan arrived in Changyi County, he saw that the strength of the city wall was even less than that of Lingao and Chengmai, and he also gave up the idea of defending the city, and ordered the army to dig fortifications on the official road a few miles away from the county seat, and set up obstacles such as rejecting horses.

Lin Weiye also followed the army to Changyi, he was a little incomprehensible to Xia Nan's decision, and asked: "This county town is broken, but it's better than having nothing to rely on in the wilderness, why don't you go into the city to defend?" ”

Xia Nannu mouthed, "This, let Chief of Staff Sima tell you that the plan was made by their staff office, and I just made a decision." ”

Sima De explained, "The purpose of our arrival here is to intercept the Tartars. It would be safer to hide in the city, but it would also limit our movements. If the Tartars don't want to be entangled, they can bypass the county seat and go north directly, so what's the point of hiding in the city? ”

Lin Weiye understood: "The Tartars are bent on going north, and they will never take the initiative to attack the county seat, and our hard work to intercept them in front of them will be in vain." ”

Perhaps there was a providence in the dark, and it was destined that Abatai would encounter the main force of the Qiong navy, and just a few hours after the summer south arrived in Changyi, the Houjin army also arrived.

Houjin's scouts spotted the enemy in their way and immediately reported back. Abatai was angry when he heard the news, these days have been unfavorable, and since entering Shandong, everything has not been smooth, and now anyone dares to come to Tai Sui's head to break ground? He shouted, "Galtu! ”

Gartu rode over and said, "The subordinates are here." ”

"I will give you two thousand men, no matter who stands in the way, before the army arrives, you must break me up, clear the obstacles to the advance, and do not delay the journey."

Gaartu replied loudly: "Obey!" ”

A mixed force of 2,000 Mongols and the Later Golden Armor left the large group and accelerated with Galtu. Their task was to clear the way before the army reached the battlefield. According to their cognition, except for a few troops such as the white pole soldiers, there were almost no troops in the entire Ming Dynasty that could compete with Dajin in the wilderness. As long as the 2,000 cavalry rushes, no matter what comes from in front of them, they will only end up in a rout.

Gartu led the army to two miles ahead, and found a large area of infantry blocking the front, and gasped, I'm afraid there are more than 10,000 people, right? It seems that when the scouts returned, they did not make the number of enemies clear.

Galtu, who had planned to attack directly after approaching, hesitated, an army of this size was not a small fight at all, it was completely a posture for a decisive battle. You must know that the army brought by Abatai to Shandong, the armor soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner and the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Han Army, and the Baoyi are all combined, and they are only more than 15,000 people. Although the enemy in front of him did not know what the combat strength was, it was not something that only 2,000 people could contend with.

Frightened at the fortress, Gartu saw that the enemy was outnumbered by him, hesitated for a moment, gave up the idea of charging, turned his head back, and reported to Abatai.

With a "snap", the whip drew a blood mark on Galtu's back, but Galtu didn't dare to dodge, so he could only take the whip hard.

"Did the Ming Dog of Dengzhou destroy your soul?" Abatai scolded loudly, "Don't forget, although we have suffered setbacks, Minggou is hiding in a strange stone castle, not fighting with us in the field. Now that you have such an opportunity, you are running back in disgrace? No matter how many people there are, it is normal for hundreds of our Dajin warriors to chase thousands of Ming troops. ”

Gartu was ashamed and replied, "My subordinates know, please give Lord Belle another chance." ”

Abatai raised his horsewhip and pointed ahead: "Go, you are one of the few warriors of my blue flag, do not let fear blind your eyes, keep your eyes open to your opponents, raise your saber and cut off the heads of those Nikans!" ”

Gartu's emotions were completely mobilized, he raised his saber with a red face, turned his horse's head, and shouted: "Come with me, kill the dog!" "Two thousand men went and returned, and returned to the battlefield again.
