I am the king of the dead

Tuotuobuhua was very annoyed, saying that the Central Plains was rich and prosperous, but it was empty.

Tuotuo Buhua took the first seat, but also took the second seat first, with his two children and two younger brothers on the left, and Agadorji on the right.

It is not so much that Tuotuobuhua led the troops from Beigukou, it is better to say that Agadorji led the troops.

Zhu Qizhen was sitting in the center, surrounded by the leaders of the Oara people.

"Is this the Daming Emperor? I thought it was an immortal with three heads and six arms." Tuotuo Buhua broke the silence of the middle tent, causing a series of suppressed laughter.

He also smiled without saying a word, and looked at Zhu Qizhen's blushing face with a smile on his face. It was really unexpected for him to be captured by this Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

"Khan, we will march to the capital city tomorrow, should we make a plan? The capital of the Ming Dynasty is 72 miles away, the city wall is more than three feet high, and the moat is about ten feet wide. How should we attack the city?" He also put down his teacup first. Fishy and greasy, drinking tea is a tradition of the grassland tribes.

The offerings to Zhu Qizhen sent by the capital of the Ming Dynasty were also withheld first. This tribute tea has to be said that it is much more refreshing and delicious than tea bricks.

"What do you think Jinong thinks?" Tuotuo Buhua asked his younger brother Agadorji. Jinong in the Mongolian language means deputy khan.

The two brothers used to be brothers and sisters, but as the Oara people fought in the north and south, the territory became larger and larger, and Agadorji became more and more dissatisfied with the position of the deputy khan. In the end, the brothers fought against the wall.

Agador Ji united also first, emptying him.

So in the end, is it also the first to connect Agadoreji, or is Agadorji ambitious and united first?

This is no longer important, the important thing is: the opinion of not taking off is not important, and the opinion of the first is the most important.

"Why don't we ask our Great Emperor to see if he has any good ideas?" Jinong Agadorji said cheerfully, looking at Zhu Qizhen.

"Hahahaha!"

This time it was a roar of laughter, and each of the generals present could not close their mouths to laughter.

When they were teasing Zhu Qizhen with Tuotuobuhua before, they suppressed their laughter, not because they were afraid of the majesty of the Emperor Daming, but because they were afraid of coping with Tuotuobuhua, which made Ye Xian dissatisfied.

Now Jinong is ridiculing Zhu Qizhen, everyone is naturally no longer depressed.

The whole tent camp was filled with joyful air.

Zhu Qizhen's face flushed, but he still didn't say a word. He knew that at this time, he could only endure, otherwise, if the gang of Western prisoners were slightly dissatisfied, they would humiliate him even more.

Chapter 49 I participate in the battle of defending the city

"Master, I am willing to lead two thousand soldiers and horses as the vanguard, drive straight in, take the Zhangyi Gate, and lead the way." Yexian's younger brother Polo stood up, stood in the center, and shouted loudly.

He is Ye Xian's younger brother and a mother.

He followed and fought in the South and the North for more than ten years. He was known as the No. [-] Warrior in the World for Longevity. He glanced at Zhu Qizhen and said with a sneer, "I see that the Daming army is really vulnerable."

"Besides the Tumu Fort, I actually moved to the camp, but no one stopped me. I was charged twice by my horse army, and the people who charged turned their backs."

"And now the defenders of the capital dare to go out of the city to garrison, and garrison the civilian houses outside the nine gates. Don't you think that your old birthday star has been hanged, and you think you have a long life?"

When Zhu Qizhen was stationed in Tumu Fort, he was surrounded by the army of Yexian. At that time, the trenches in front of and behind the barracks were ten feet deep, and there were three bamboo sticks in total. turtle shell.

The Daming army and the Yuan army have been fighting for several years. Naturally, they know each other's weaknesses. It is the tradition of the Daming army to make a fortress. In the face of this tortoise shell, they are at first unable to do anything.

However, Zhu Qizhen ordered the camp to be moved for four miles, and the purpose of moving the camp was for water.

Civil servants headed by Minister of War Kuang Ye and military generals headed by British Minister Zhang Fu raised firm opposition to this order.

They have already sent fast cavalry to Xuanfu and Datong for help. As long as they hold on for two days, the army will arrive, and they will be able to break through the enemy and relieve the siege of Tumu Fort.

But the water in the army was getting less and less, and Zhu Qizhen asked Wang Zhenqiang to move the camp. He was really thirsty and couldn't stand it.

In the process of moving the camp, after Boyan Timur discovered it, he immediately rushed into the formation with tens of thousands of cavalry, and the Ming army in the process of moving the camp was rushed to pieces.

In the end, Zhu Qizhen was captured by Boyan Timur. On the other side of Polo, he failed to hold Zhu Qizhen's head. He has always been very resentful.

"Master, I would like to lead three thousand cavalry soldiers to stand up for Polo." The boy Pingzhang Shimao stood up. This man was extremely burly, with a big shoulder and a round waist.

Zhu Qizhen was glanced at by the boy, only to feel chills all over, and immediately shrank his body, which caused the generals in the middle tent to burst into laughter again.

Boyan Timur was another younger brother of Yexian, but he was not close to Yexian. He took four Han surnames for his four sons, and he was one of the few people who knew each other well among the Oara people.

Boyan Timur asked his daughter Moruo to serve Zhu Qizhen. According to reports, they got along pretty well.

To humiliate Zhu Qizhen like this, Boyan Timur had something to say, but in the end he didn't say it.

The winner will not be mocked and judged, and the loser is guilty of breathing in the world of immortality.

He also shook his head with a smile and said: "At that time, your ancestor, Ming Taizu Zhu Chongba once said that Dayuan has more than [-] years and his anger is exhausted. , enter the throne."

"Now that Daming has a greedy emperor like you, and such an arrogant and arrogant Minister of the Ministry of War Yu Qian, you are going to fight against me, Dayuan, in the wild. Daming should be exhausted."

Why do you say that Zhu Qizhen is greedy?

Because of the five words "Standing for a decisive battle".

Zhu Qizhen's order to be stationed in Tumu Fort was given by him personally, because he saw that Tumu Fort was open and convenient for the deployment of large troops, and it was a good place for decisive battles, so he was stationed in Tumu Fort.

After being stationed, Zhang Fu and others persuaded them many times to send elite cavalry to send Zhu Qizhen back to Beijing, and then the main force of the Ming army would fight against him.

However, Zhu Qizhen intended to fight decisively and stayed in the Tumu Fort. He couldn't dig water for three feet, so he moved the camp in order to drink water, which led to the final defeat.

Zhu Qizhen's intention of military adventure ruined more than [-] elites of Daming in Tumu Fort.

In fact, before the Tumu Fort was stationed, the Wara people set up ambush and won two great victories at Yaerling and Jiming Mountain. die.

The Tatar cavalry of the Ming Dynasty's own army, that is, the horse army, was already in two battlefields, with almost no casualties and no ability to fight decisively.

But Zhu Qizhen was not reconciled to the defeat, so he stayed in Tumu Fort and insisted on fighting this decisive battle, and he did not follow the advice of the generals in the camp, and he could not bear the hardships, and he could not endure for two days without water.

In the eyes of the Oara people, Yang Hong led the army to arrive, and the siege of Tumu Fort resolved itself.

However, Zhu Qizhen ordered the forcible relocation of the camp, which resulted in a great victory in the battle of Tumu Fort.

From the first point of view, after Yu Qian was appointed Minister of War, he inherited the arrogance of Daming, placing the army outside the city and guarding the nine gates, which is simply courting death.

"It's really courageous. My Dayuan is good at horse warfare, and I can fight decisively in the wild. Even the monarchs and ministers who have lost to Daming can come up with it!" Agadorji said with a sneer: "Master, I will lead the elite cavalry to patrol the city defense tomorrow, and explore the city defense. Know the truth, look for the weak point, and you will be defeated with a single blow.”

"Okay." He also nodded first. This rather sloppy pre-war meeting ended with a mockery of Zhu Qizhen's greed for merit, and a mockery of Daming's monarchs and ministers being beyond their own means.

They only felt that Yu Qian dared to go out of the city and rely on the houses to fight against them, which was very outrageous.

The geographical advantage of the city walls was artificially established, but Yu Qian dared to give up this biggest advantage and go out of the city to fight them decisively, which is really outrageous.

On October 14th of the [-]th year of Zhengtong, three days after starting from Zijingguan, the Oala army overwhelmingly marched from Miyun to the Xizhimen of the capital, and set up camp outside Xizhimen, spewing countless scouts to spy on the military.

When Zhu Qiyu got the news, he hurried to Zhangyi Gate. When he was standing at the head of Zhangyi Gate, the vanguard of the Oira people had already arrived.

It was also the first time that Zhu Qiyu saw the appearance of the battle formation. He stood in front of the Wufeng Tower in Zhangyi Gate, took out the telephoto mirror in his arms, and kept watching the enemy outside Zhangyi Gate.

Contrary to what he thought, he thought that the Oara people should be mainly machetes and cavalry.

However, the Oara people took the lead in posing a huge catapult that was several people tall, and dozens of general artillery seized in Tumu Fort were pushed to the forefront. Ballista car.

Zhu Qiyu frowned and looked at these catapults. After the fortified walls were cleared, there were still such large-scale siege equipment, and they were mad at first, but they still had a set.

Naturally, Zhu Qiyu also saw Yu Qian.

Yu Qian was in the house outside the Zhangyi Gate, along with the chief soldiers Shi Heng and Guangning Bo Liu An. The three of them gathered at the sentry tower and observed the formation of the enemy, as if they were discussing. What, then the three people disappeared into the house without a trace.

A loud arrow shot from under the city to a red wooden target in Wufeng Tower. Lu Zhong took two quick steps and took off the arrow's letter.

Lu Zhong ran in front of Zhu Qiyu with armor, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, the 77 cannons of Zhangyimen have been filled with ammunition, and Yu Shangshu sent someone to send a letter, ordering that after the enemy army rushed into the folk houses, immediately send them to the civilian houses. Abandon the cannons and bombard the houses."

"Precise." Zhu Qiyu nodded. Most of the front of the house was filled with all kinds of caltrops, fire and thunder, and there was no Ming army in it.

While Zhu Qiyu was still thinking about it, the stones on the iron frame of the trebuchet far away from the Orah people were actually sprinkled with fierce kerosene and ignited. The stone was thrown suddenly.

There were traces of black smoke billowing from the sky, and the stones fell heavily into the house with a whistling sound.

What followed was that the infantry was holding the plank on top of the trench, and the infantry was preparing to walk through the trench.

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "The crossbow team listens, let it go!"

The Daming army's counterattack has begun. The eight-bow crossbow with one shot and three-bladed spear as the arrow has already been wound. Under Zhu Qiyu's order, the crossbow made a loud bang, and then black shadows were drawn in the air. After that, he headed towards the Wa Lai who stepped over the crossbow team.

With the three blades of the spear head, the spear and arrow drew blood rain one after another in the infantry team and nailed it to the ground.

The crossbow was crunched and wound up, and Zhu Qiyu watched the warriors marching through the trenches in the rain of arrows.

The flag-bearer beside Zhu Qiyu waved the flag heavily.

Chapter 50 The Madness of the Oirats

The Divine Arrow is a kind of rocket of the Ming Dynasty. To be precise, gunpowder is tied to the position of the arrow. After landing, the iron pieces in the gunpowder will be blasted in all directions, the greatest pursuit of killing.

The rain of arrows pierced through the sky like a rain screen, passing towards the Oirat Foot War camp, blasting out in the crowd, and the mourning could still be heard even at a distance of a few hundred paces.

Zhu Qiyu firmly grasped the bricks and stones at the head of the city, and continued to throw firepower at the foot battles and cavalry formations of the Oara people.

It was the first time he saw such a war scene, and his nervous palms were full of water.

He actually asked Taiqian a question, what if the Oara people drove the people to attack the city?

Yu Qian's answer was silence, but after arriving on the battlefield, Zhu Qiyu knew clearly that there was only one answer to this question, that is, under the city walls, there were all enemies.

The enemy drove the people and captives to attack the city, and Zhu Qiyu could only order to shoot.

War is cruel, which is probably something Yu Qian never said.

The vanguards of the Oara people's foot-battle were all people and prisoners captured by the Oara people in Kyushu outside the mountains. They used sabres to drive these people to death, while some Oara people were mixed in.

While creating riots, the Oara people can also quickly approach the civilian houses outside the Zhangyi Gate through the cover of the people.

Under the bombardment of arrows, stones, and lead bullets in the sky, the army of the Oara people rushed into the houses with hysterical roars.

The sub-cannons and the general artillery on the top of the city began to fire. Under the cover of the artillery fire, there were debris and broken walls and broken limbs and arms. Some people with broken legs were on the ground with their hands supporting the front. He did, but he was trampled to death in a pool of blood by the iron hoofs of the horse army of the Oirat people.

The brutality of the war became extremely real at this moment.

This is war. On the battlefield, anyone can be killed by stray arrows. On the battlefield, no life will be guaranteed, no matter if you are a prince or a nobleman, or a three princes and nine ministers.

Humans die when killed.

Following the final salvo of the Great General Artillery, the cavalry of the Oara people finally rushed into the houses outside the Zhangyi Gate.

The battlefield suddenly became quiet. The roaring explosions and gunpowder smoke were being blown farther and farther by the wind in the capital, but the battlefield gradually became clear.

The tragic hand-to-hand battle was going on in the houses under the city.

Relying on the houses, roofs, walls, chariots, and horse-riding horses, the Daming army was fighting at close range. As far as Zhu Qiyu's eyes could see, there were three or four Daming troops catching each of the horsemen's cavalry. fight.

There are at least 2 Ming troops outside Zhangyi Gate, while the Oirat vanguard army is only about [-], and the Oirat vanguard seems to be stuck in a quagmire. After passing through the bombardment area, they are unable to advance an inch.

Their invincible cavalry soldiers on the grassland lost their greatest support, mobility, when facing T-shaped streets and chariots.

Is that what cavalry do?

Zhu Qiyu had a question in his heart.

According to his superficial understanding of the battlefield, the cavalry should be the light cavalry with the task of harassing arrows and breaking the formation, while the heavy cavalry should mainly break the formation.

But Zhu Qiyu didn't see the application of Ma Jun at all in the way of the Oirat people.

Zhu Qiyu thought that his understanding of the cavalry had gone wrong, but soon, the defeat of the Vanguard Army of the Oirat led to his speculation.

Soon the melodious sound of horns and horns sounded on the battlefield, and the Oara people turned their horses and began to retreat.

However, the retreat of these Oirat troops was not smooth. The houses that had been bombarded were all debris, and the corpses and building debris were stumbling blocks on their way to retreat.

But the biggest obstacle was the foot fight that Oray just rushed up.

These foot warriors also wanted to retreat, they turned around, but they were far slower than the cavalry.

The stampede began, and some of the Oara cavalry, brandishing their spears, cleaved a path with their weapons.

As soon as the Daming army swarmed up, Zhu Qiyu immediately captured the figures of Yu Qian, Shi Heng, and Liu An. The three of them had bright yellow armor and red crowns, and they rushed forward and rushed out of the houses. .

The most basic formation of the Ming army maintainers, the shield soldiers and the chariots are in front, the swordsmen are on the side, and the guns are in the array, and they continue to move forward. The battlefield is once again filled with gunpowder smoke. .

Under the three-way attack, a group of cavalry soldiers came from the direction of Xibianmen, and the sound of iron hooves shattered the Orah people's last extravagant hope of retreating.

The cavalry roamed around the battlefield, using arrows and firearms in their hands to leave at a touch, blocking the enemy's retreat, but they did not fully engage in the battle.

Zhu Qiyu was finally convinced that there was no deviation in his cognition of the battlefield, and that was how cavalry should be used!This is the correct use of cavalry!Yu Qian emphasized the importance of the horse army so much, but the performance of the Oara people could not show the role of the horse army at all.

Daming's horse army, although not many, did play a blocking role.

The Oirat people, who were in a dilemma, were quickly defeated by the advancing Ming army.

This battle, which lasted for less than an hour, finally came to an end with the sound of horns in the Daming army formation.

The Ming army was victorious.
