Chapter 135

Yang Chendong personally went to Wang Zuo and sent the thick Futon to the Minister of household under his leg. Only this small action attracted the 65 year old man's eyes to tears. Don't underestimate this small action, but no other accompanying officials dare to do it. They have no ability to keep themselves, let alone help others.

"Yang Xima, it's not worth it. Wang Zhen will hate you when he turns back. I'm afraid he will settle everything after returning to the North Korea." Wang Zuo kindly reminded Yang Chendong.

"It doesn't matter. Respecting the old and loving the young is one of his virtues. Even if someone blames me, it's just to argue with him." Yang Chendong smiled innocently. But I was thinking, could Wang Zhen go back to Korea?

Hearing Yang Chendong talking about virtue, Wang Zuo burst into tears. At this moment, he was really moved and didn't know what to say.

Seeing the old man crying like a child at the moment, Yang Chendong squatted down, took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, "Lord Wang, take care of your body. It's windy and dusty outside. Wipe your tears dry quickly. It's not good to have eye diseases."

"OK, OK, thank you for washing the horse." Wang Zuo took the handkerchief and wiped his eyes. He was grateful for it.

People say that adversity shows true love. It's not far from the capital. Yang Chendong has begun to buy people's hearts, and this is just the beginning. It can only be described as seeing the extraordinary things at first.

The army rose at Juyong Pass on the 19th, passed through Huailai and arrived at Xuanfu. On the 28th, I went to the south of Yanghe city and came all the way. It should be said that the marching speed is still very fast.

Yanghe city is one of the 72 castles in Datong, an important town in the Ming Dynasty. It is more than 4600 meters long, 11.6 meters high, and a 10 meter deep trench. There are urn cities inside and outside the city gate, that is, the ancient battlefield where Liu Bang was surrounded by Baideng. It was called Baideng County in the Yuan Dynasty.

More than ten days before the arrival of the Yingzong army, on July 15, the Ming army also had a fierce battle with the Warsaw army here. A total of 40000 Ming troops were defeated by the Warsaw army. Even senior generals such as Datong governor Song Ying, Fuma Duwei Jingyuan and chief military officer Zhu Mian were killed in the battle. It can be seen that there were heavy casualties.

When the Yingzong army arrived here, the battlefield had not been cleaned. The Ming army was full of corpses, with an unpleasant smell and an atmosphere of fear. It also dealt a heavy blow to the psychology of the Ming army. Some timid people began to leave.

Yingzong continued to move forward and wanted to find the main force of Wala for a decisive battle, but at this time, he also contracted his troops and retreated beyond the Great Wall to avoid the edge.

On August 1, the Ming army entered Datong, an important frontier town, in order to confront the warra army.

Who thought, first did not choose to fight head-on, but took initiative to withdraw north to lure Ming army into depth. Although Datong is an important town, it simply can't afford such a huge logistical supply. Seeing that there is little hope of decisive war, the continued detention of the army here will not have the slightest effect. Only the loss every day is not a small number. The following ministers proposed to move back to the DPRK one after another.

Yang Chendong did not follow the ministers to petition the emperor. He looked on coldly.

Judging from the situation at that time, the decision to move back to Korea was undoubtedly very correct. Although it was a futile effort to mobilize the army this time, at least the army did not suffer great losses.

At this time, not only Yang Chendong saw this, but also Zhuqi Town, Wang Zhen, the actual commander of the army, saw this.

Before the Datong war, it was under the guidance of Wang Zhen. He sent Song Ying, the general soldier of Datong, and Shi Hengxian, the governor, to fight warra. In his imagination, these two people are enough to clean up first, so that as soon as he arrives, he can put on a show and show off without really fighting.

The words came back and really fought. I'm afraid Wang Zhen may not have such courage.

Wang Zhen worried that Song Ying and Shi henggan didn't have to do their best, but also arranged confidant eunuch Guo Jing to be the supervisor. Then, at the urging of the eunuch, the two sides fought a war. Because they were eager to fight, they were ambushed first. Even because of Guo Jing's restraint, some of Song Ying's troops were destroyed. Shi Heng and Guo Jing escaped back. Talking about the power of Warsaw, they really frightened Wang Zhen. This coincided with the fact that all civil and military officials strongly advised the class teacher, so he rarely chose to agree with everyone's wishes.

It was decided to withdraw. It was not far from Datong at this time. There would be no danger of withdrawing at this time. It was just a tourism of 500000 people.

On the third day of August, the Ming army decided to return to Beijing from Zijingguan. Guo Deng, deputy commander of Datong, suggested that it could be far away from the possible route of Wala attack, which was relatively safe. It should be said that this route was more practical and feasible, but Wang Zhen stood up again and put forward different suggestions.

To say that Wang Zhen can have his current position is really suspected of speculation. But it is precisely because of this that he has the appearance of a small man's success and is used to showing off wherever he goes. Now I know the power of the vara cavalry, and I know that strength can't fight. But when I went back, I was more or less regretful, so I decided to meet my heart to show off everywhere, and proposed not to go back to Datong, but to go back to Weizhou, Shanxi (Wang Zhen's hometown), in order to show my prestige by "driving fortunately".

When Wang Zhen came out of Weizhou, Shanxi Province, he was still a broken settler. Now he has unlimited scenery and power. He has to go back to his hometown and show off.

Because of Wang Zhen's insistence and not knowing how to persuade Yingzong Zhuqi town to agree, the army had to go to Weizhou, Shanxi Province.

But when he was about to arrive in Weizhou, 40 miles away from Zijingguan, Wang Zhen suddenly changed his mind. He no longer went to Weizhou and asked everyone to stop because he was afraid that the army would trample on the crops in Weizhou. Years ago, he got a lot of potato seeds from Yangjiazhuang and Hubu and planted them here.

In order to preserve this high-yield crop, the army must not move forward. This reason once again convinced Zhuqi town that the army moved to the Xuanfu.

In this regard, Yang Chendong remained silent. At the moment, he is urging, what can he do? With his current status and position, his words can not be adopted by Yingzong and Wang Zhen. Rashly putting forward them will only attract their disgust.

The army of the Ming Dynasty had already advanced to the Xuanfu mansion, and those who had been following behind also thought about it first.

The first main cavalry was about 30000. Facing the 500000 main force of the Ming army, he had no spectrum in his heart and was not sure of winning the first war. He followed the Ming army for more than ten days. He watched the Ming army twist around like a stupid green worm, gradually filling his heart with confidence. It seems that these 500000 people are not strong enough to fight at one blow, so they issued an order to attack.

Wara elite cavalry raided the Ming army brigade in two ways. Wang Zhen, who heard the news, was very nervous. He urgently contracted the army and sent gongshun Hou Wu Kezhong, Governor Wu Keqin and other soldiers to refuse the war. As a result, Wu Kezhong's Department, as the guard of the Ming army, should have more than 10000 troops, but it was still unbearable.

After the defeat in the first World War, Zhu Yong, Duke of Cheng, and Bo xueshou, Yongshun, led 40000 troops to yaoerling to fight with him first. As a result, the army was subdued and destroyed.

The troops led by Zhu Yong are the elite of the Ming army, mainly cavalry. After the defeat of this army, the Ming army has actually lost the capital to fight a decisive battle first, and the military morale has begun to be lax. In this way, the day before the Ming army arrived at the civil castle, it had suffered heavy losses, reduced its personnel by more than 50000, its actual military strength (excluding transporters and civilian men used in the war) was less than 200000, and lost its elite cavalry.

When Zhu Yong led 30000 cavalry to ambush first, the news came that Zhu Qizhen and Wang Zhen were scared to pee directly, and SA Yazi ran back.

On August 13, the army entered the civil castle.

When the army arrived at the civil castle, it was not dark and the sun did not set. At this time, it was only 20 miles away from Huailai County, and a rapid march could arrive. Once the army enters the county and refuses to fight the city, the Warsaw cavalry will have nothing to do.

At this point, it can be called life and death. Wang Zhen raised a moth again and ordered the army to stop and stop moving forward.

It turned out that more than a thousand baggage vehicles belonging to Wang Zhen had not arrived yet. These were all the things that the border army filial piety gave Wang Zhen along the way. The price was millions of Liang. As the actual speaker of the northern expedition, the gifts of local officials' "strong journey" were of course accepted by Wang Zhen.

The gifts given by officials along the way were too rich, so Wang Zhen gave up his life and gave up the great opportunity to enter Jiancheng.

Wang Zhen asked everyone to wait until the car arrived. So in the civil engineering fort, Yingzong Zhuqi Town, hundreds of civil and military officials and hundreds of thousands of troops waited here all night.

At dawn, more than a thousand vehicles still didn't arrive, and Wang Zhen couldn't wait any longer. He knew in his heart that the car couldn't come, and he wanted to go at this time. Unfortunately, it was impossible to go at this time. There was enough time for one night. Thirty thousand elite cavalry from vara had surrounded the Ming army on several sides.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of troops were "surrounded" by 20000 Warsaw cavalry in a civil castle without water source.

It is impossible to encircle hundreds of thousands of people with 30000. However, after these days of tossing and turning, the army has long become a bird of shock, with no morale and completely lost most of its original combat effectiveness.

At this time, Wang Zhen was also frightened by the rushing vara cavalry. In a panic, he took the civil Fort as the center, dug trenches and set up barriers to protect himself.

Unfortunately, Wang Zhen doesn't understand war or soldiers. He can't even understand the terrain. Civil castle is a place with high terrain, no spring and water shortage. It is not a place to keep. So in the next few days, hundreds of thousands of Ming troops were also surrounded and attacked first. For two days and three nights, the worry of lack of water became more and more serious.

The Ming army couldn't dig a drop of water three feet into the ground. The morale of the army was at a loss and the morale of the Army wanted to change.

On August 15, the army also withdrew suddenly. He said he would stop fighting and sent a messenger to say he wanted to talk about peace. This is simply a hard to get tactic.
