Chapter 18 Capture the level
Chapter 18
The battle on the city was over for the Tartars.
Master Xiao saluted Altan and said, "Congratulations to Khan, most of them are right in front of you."
Altan couldn't help but feel happy. The north gate of Yongning Pass has not been opened yet, after all, the blocked city gate cannot be opened for a while. However, four or five stable long ladders have been established on the two-mile city wall, and the brigade of Tartars are ready to pass the long ladder to the city.
The Ming army, which was still persisting on the city wall, was already in a situation of fighting each other.
Break through the barrier is right in front of you.
Altan said happily: "I don't ask for anything else when I go to Dadu. I just want to let the Southern Emperor let me go and withdraw my troops."
Although Master Xiao was unwilling to give up, he had to admit that he had been fighting here for several months. When he reached the point of using his troops, he felt a bit lucky to attack Yongning Pass today. If he attacked Beijing, such a strong city in the world must be restored and prepared well, otherwise he would not be able to defeat him.
Master Xiao said, "But it is the annual monies?"
Altan laughed and said, "The Southern Dynasty is so proud of its appearance. How bad is the annual monies? Just call it Tonggong. After all, the grassland is too poor. Everything is lacking. As long as the Southern Dynasty emperor agrees to me, even if the war is stopped, it will be no big deal."
Altan went south many times, and there were many factors, such as the reasons for strategic security. Zeng Xian's reconciliation plan shocked Altan three times a day. However, now the strategic form has reversed and Zeng Xian died. Datong Town has also been severely weakened, and its military advantage has already reached Altan's hands.
Altan is very realistic. There is no idea that the White Lotus Sect will destroy the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop.
He just wanted to maintain this strategic advantage and use it to solve economic problems, which was to promote tribute and allow a large amount of Central Plains materials to enter the grassland. Altan could not only consolidate his rule, but also have more manpower and material resources to build Fengzhou Beach. He could build more Bansheng, and use the trade power with the Ming Dynasty to do a re-selling trade, reselling the Ming Dynasty goods to other Mongolian tribes, and consolidate Altan's rule on the grassland.
But this thing was just a matter of thinking about it now, but now it may be really done.
Master Xiao felt a sense of crisis in his heart and said to himself: "If this is the case, what should we do if the two sides stop fighting?" Master Xiao knew very well that there was a fundamental conflict between him and Altan, and this contradiction was the ownership of the Han people on the grassland.
Most of these people were attracted by the White Lotus Sect. But Altan does not want these people to be in the hands of the White Lotus Sect.
Moreover, the court hated the White Lotus Sect to the core, and even dealing with the White Lotus Sect is more important than dealing with the Tartars. After all, traitors are more hateful than enemies. Once peace talks are held, how should the White Lotus Sect deal with themselves?
Master Xiao thought a lot for a moment. Although his cunning was very deep, his expression was a little unnatural. He was afraid that Altan would see it. But when he looked up at the top of the city, he suddenly saw a Tartar flag falling from the top of the city, and a dilapidated red flag hung on the top of the city again.
This red flag is naturally the banner of the Ming army. After all, the Ming Dynasty is still red.
Master Xiao's face changed suddenly and he said, "What's going on?"
No one can answer him at this moment.
Or Qi Jiguang can answer him.
When Qi Jiguang moved, Zhou Mengchen immediately understood. Without saying a word, he put on his armor, carried a long sword, and followed him. As a civil servant, Zhou Mengchen drew his sword and stepped forward. This was the silent command. Lu Tong, Wang Xiao, and Li Ru rushed up with their headquarters.
Even the craftsmen brought by Zhou Mengchen also looked for suitable guys, such as wooden sticks, muskets, and messy things, and followed Zhou Mengchen upwards.
After all, these people are all old Beijing. The Tartars rush to the city of Beijing, and they suffered the biggest losses.
Zhou Mengchen accidentally made the best command. Without any hesitation, Yongning Pass was not big, and it could even be said to be small. Apart from a school ground, there was almost no place to complete the team, and he could see through it from the south gate to the north gate at a glance.
This is a melee situation.
This kind of fighting alone is the best way to do it.
And it has to be admitted that the solution given by Yang Jisheng is very appropriate.
Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry were made up of hundreds of generals. Now Zhou Mengchen brought these soldiers from the military generals to take the martial arts exam. Everyone has some skills, but there are also some who are just a bit of a good deal, but a considerable number are above the level.
In terms of average standards, these people have better qualities than some military servants.
Of course, there are also some shortcomings, such as not fighting or cooperating with each other. The former can only be overcome by oneself, but the latter is the best for the current situation. However, few troops can perform complete plastic surgery on the city wall in this kind of battle.
It seems that the only one with this ability is the mandarin duck formation of the Qi family army.
Anyway, the Tartars don't have this ability.
So a melee brought out the strength of the Ming army's individual soldiers.
Just looking at Qi Jiguang will tell.
In history, Qi Jiguang's first battle was to fight Japanese pirates, and he led the soldiers of Zhejiang Guards. When Qi Jiguang saw that there were not many Japanese pirates, he led his subordinates to charge forward. Qi Jiguang rushed into the Japanese pirates and chopped up ten people's heads. When he looked back, he saw that the soldiers of the Guards did not meet the battle at all, and all turned around and ran away.
Qi Jiguang was surrounded.
So Qi Jiguang could only run away. In this case, Qi Jiguang could actually run out. It can be seen that Qi Jiguang's combat effectiveness.
This is also the reason why Qi Jiguang learned from his mistakes and must train elite soldiers.
However, on this plane, Qi Jiguang's first battle was not so embarrassing.
At least, although there were not many people behind Qi Jiguang and some people were nervous at the battle, most of them followed.
As soon as Qi Jiguang climbed to the top of the city, he saw a Tartar flag that had just been raised. He glanced at him and immediately opened his bow and shot arrows. Within a distance of dozens of steps, Qi Jiguang didn't use his eyes to shoot arrows. The sound of the bow strings was almost connected, and several Tartars were killed.
Although Qi Jiguang threw away the longbow, he drew his sword in his hand and drove forward with a tiger step. The long sword flashed and the head fell to the ground, with a great momentum of killing every step.
He didn't just kill people, but he shouted loudly while taking action: "I am a thousand households in the Jingying camp. I am here to assist Yongning Pass under the order of Lord Zhou of the Ministry of War. Lord Zhou has arrived in Guanzhong of Yongning. The Beijing camp team is the rear of Guan, and the good man will kill the Tartars with me."
As Qi Jiguang shouted, the Ming soldiers, whose morale had collapsed, had a backbone in an instant and moved closer to Qi Jiguang.
At this moment, Wang was holding a spear and following Qi Jiguang. The people behind Qi Jiguang who were dissatisfied with Qi Jiguang the day before yesterday saw Qi Jiguang being on the battlefield with such a might, and they all followed one after another. For a time, a team of hundreds of people formed, sweeping across the Tartars along the way.
Qi Jiguang's goal is very clear.
It is that Tartar battle flag.
What he had to do was not to kill the Tartars, but to tell the soldiers and civilians who were still fighting in Yongning Guanzhong that reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty came to boost morale. Otherwise, they might not be able to regain the city of Yongning Guan alone by relying on their hundreds of tired soldiers.
It was too late to say it, then it was soon.
Qi Jiguang suddenly broke out, not only the Ming army did not expect it, but the Tartars did not expect it. So Qi Jiguang was like a sharp blade, and immediately cut off a Tartar battle flag and promoted the Ming army flag that was originally trampled in the blood mud.
Let the entire Yongning Pass clearly determine the whole difference.
For a moment, there were thunderous cheers and thunderstorms at Yongning Pass. The Tartars' offensive was a stagnant.
But it's just a stagnation.
Because the Tartars already had several stable routes to climb the city. At this moment, there are still many long ladders that want to be placed on the city wall.
Zhou Mengchen had hundreds of war soldiers, although they had strong combat power, but they could only suppress the Tartars for a time and could not drive the Tartars off the city wall. This formed a war of attrition.
The Tartars were outside the pass, and I don’t know how many new forces there were. Zhou Mengchen could fight, and one less died. Zhou Mengchen would definitely not be able to fight such a war of attrition.
Zhou Mengchen did not climb to the city. After all, with his skills, after going to the city, he only exposed his weaknesses to the Tartars. Not only did he not help, he helped him worse. But it did not mean that Zhou Mengchen did not notice the situation on the city.
Zhou Mengchen listened to the following report and felt extremely anxious for a moment. He thought to himself: "What should I do?"
