Chapter 1018: Yue Le was angry

Although Li Dingguo was comforting Sun Chuanting, it was obvious that Li Dingguo was also a little nervous in his heart now, more than 30,000 Mongolian cavalry, this force was not weaker than the Manchurian cavalry of Abatai and Zilharang! The reason why Abatai and Azig defeated Zhendingfu was not entirely because of their lack of combat strength, but because they were restrained by Zhendingfu, and they could only huddle in the city of Zhendingfu to accept round after round of artillery attacks by the Ming army.

But now it's different, the Mongol cavalry doesn't have to defend Zhendingfu, they don't care about Zhendingfu, their only goal is to defeat the Ming army in Zhendingfu, and then rescue Duoduo who is besieged in Daimyofu.

The Mongolian cavalry was not like the Qing army to be restrained by foreign objects, and the field battle could naturally give full play to the impact advantage and mobility advantage of the cavalry, at least in the field battle, Sun Chuanting's Tianwei army and the two towns of Nanjing, facing the Mongolian cavalry without any certainty of victory; Of course, the Mongolian cavalry wants to capture Zhendingfu, and it is no different from a dream, and the Mongolian cavalry is still at the level of the thirteenth century, and there are not many siege artillery at all, not to mention artillery, and even firearms such as muskets and firearms are basically absent.

If the city is simply forcibly attacked by cavalry, even if the city wall of Zhending Mansion is now collapsing badly, and there are nearly 50,000 Ming troops sitting in the city, the Mongolian cavalry will definitely not take the slightest advantage.

"Humph!"

Sun Chuanting was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled coldly and replied: "Ning Yu, Yingwu, although the Mongolian cavalry is not bad, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, no matter how powerful they are, how can they help our Zhending Mansion?" Now they have arrived in Baoding, that is to say, there should be two more days to arrive at Zhending Mansion, two days is enough time for us to clean up the city defense of Zhending Mansion, pass the order, mobilize all the strong men and people in the city to repair the city wall, Zhong Yue, led a cavalry to immediately rush to the west, to meet the grain and grass in the west, the Mongolian cavalry is best at speed, but don't let them sneak attack our baggage battalion. As long as we protect our grain routes and then repair the city walls, even if they are not so strong, they will definitely not be able to be broken by the Mongol cavalry! The Mongols did not have artillery and muskets, and it was difficult to take Zhendingfu! ”

Li Dingguo's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Yes, Lord Inspector, I have ignored this, now the Mongolian cavalry is entrenched in Monan and Mobei, there is no place to change firearms, there are no firearms, not to mention the city wall of Zhending Mansion, even if it is the wall of a residential house, they are not so easy to tear down, right?" ”

Sun Chuanting said with a smile: "That's the truth, but, Brother Ning Yu, you have to work hard, Yingwu and Zhong Yue sit in Zhending Mansion with me, only 20,000 troops may be able to see the Mongolian cavalry to death, they will definitely not be able to take it, as for the rest of the troops, all of them will be led by you and go straight to the Daimyo's Mansion, at this time, it is also time for us to concentrate on besieging the Manchurian cavalry, as long as the main force of Duoduo's cavalry is annihilated, the Manchurians will only obediently withdraw from Shanhaiguan, not thirty or fifty years, They all want to be able to regain their strength! ”

Sun Chuanting is right, all the population of Manchuria combined, only 100,000, except for the old and weak, women and children, all the elite who can join the army together, will not exceed 300,000, after nearly two years of war, the loss of Manchuria's Eight Banners has exceeded 100,000 people, once the elite cavalry under the command of Duoduo is wiped out, the remaining elite of Manchuria will definitely not exceed 100,000, and the elite is lost, more than 200,000 backbones are lost, where can it be replenished in a short time? Even if the population can recover to its heyday within 20 years, how can the 100,000 and 200,000 elites recover so easily?

Li Dingguo hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Master Governor, I only carry the 20,000 elites of the Fourth Town under my command, and the rest of the forces will all stay in Zhending Mansion, after all, 30,000 Mongolian elites should not be underestimated, once they break through Zhending Mansion and kill near the Daimyo's Mansion, we will fall short." Now Brother Yifan plus the strength of Brother Mufeng, there are already 80,000 or 90,000 people, plus my 20,000 people, there are already 100,000 troops, all of them are the elite of the Tianwei Army and the Three Towns of Nanjing, both in terms of strength and combat power have surpassed the Manchurian army, and the emperor defeated Azig and went north along the canal, it won't take too long to be able to rush to the vicinity of the Daimyo's Mansion, and when the time comes, 150,000 or 60,000 troops, even if Duoduo is capable of the sky, he can only hate the Daimyo's Mansion! ”

Sun Chuanting hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

Sun Chuanting discussed with Li Dingguo and others about dealing with the Mongol cavalry, and at this time, Abatai and Zilharang had also fled to the Daimyo's Mansion in a hurry.

Two people with the remnants of the defeated will run all the way, even the elite power of the two yellow flags has been beaten to the ground, the heart of the Ming army has been afraid to the extreme, only two or three years, two or three years, the Ming Dynasty has completely reversed the strength of Manchuria, when Hong Chengchou led the 140,000 Ming army elite Chen soldiers Liaodong, but also by their own people did not have the power to fight back, now well, I and others followed the regent into the customs, more than 200,000 troops and the elite of the Ming Dynasty all parties to help, was beaten by Zhu Jie, a rising star, and couldn't raise his head, it was really terrifying!

The two of them ran out for nearly a hundred miles in one breath, only to slow down the speed of escape, and the scattered cavalry behind them gradually gathered together, after a day's time, only to gather six or seven thousand remnants of the defeated generals, six or seven thousand people, and almost all of them were wounded, if it was only the injuries caused by the sword, it would be good to say, many of them were injured by muskets and artillery, once those lead pellets entered the body, they had to give away half their lives if they didn't die! It is a great luck that these remnants of the defeated army can gather 4,000 troops to fight in a short period of time......

"Twenty thousand elites, twenty thousand taels of elite yellow flags, just like that, I'm sorry for the regent, I'm sorry for the first emperor, I'm sorry for the dead father Khan, woo woo......"

Abatai was so distressed that he cried loudly!

"Alright, Abatai! Don't cry! If you hadn't insisted on going out of the city to fight, how would we have lost so badly! ”

Zilharang shouted angrily.

"Prince Zhuang, what do you mean by that? Are you blaming our father and son for being incompetent? ”

Yue Le's face on the side was a little pale, after all, he had ripped off a large piece of flesh from his shoulder, even the bones were injured, he lost too much blood, there was a big battle, and ordinary people couldn't get up for a long time, that is, a fierce general like Yue Le could still support it. Hearing that Ji'er Harang blamed his father, of course Yue Le didn't do it, if it weren't for the defeat of your Ji'er Harang's Western Route Army and the family rushed to Zhending Mansion, why did Lao Tzu leave the Daimyo's Mansion and run to Zhending Mansion to fight?
