The Beijing camp soldiers who were allocated to Chen Xi were completely unqualified to participate in such a high-intensity battle, whether in terms of combat effectiveness, morale, or morale.

In fact, a group of generals followed Shen Xi at that time, and they were also shirking their responsibilities. They liked to cause trouble for Chen Xi when they had nothing to do. Chen Xi said they had to do whatever they said.

But after several months of continuous combat, Chen Xi's troops finally grew into the most elite combat force of the Ming Dynasty... Of course, if these people were not forced into desperate situations, they would not have burst out with such powerful combat power.

Chen Xi's method is very simple. The specific training process is to let these people experience escaping from death again and again. Each war is treated as the last battle. As a result, from generals to ordinary soldiers, they find that the war is not as terrible as they imagined. They even just need to obey Chen Xi's orders and appear in the right place at the right time to easily win a big victory. They may not necessarily need to fight the Tatars with their lives.

Chen Xi knew that the Ming army, who usually eats braised vegetables, is far weaker in personal physical condition than the Tartars who grew up eating beef and mutton. When they fight in close combat, they not only have no advantage, but also have insufficient motivation and weak enterprising spirit, so he usually loses his mind at once, so he never fights a war that he is unsure of.

Before Chen Xi returned to Beijing to serve the king, he knew very well that he would definitely face large-scale frontal battles with the Tartars at that time, and he had to intentionally cultivate the ability of soldiers to rely on military formations to fight.

As long as you adapt to this group battle, the soldiers have the confidence to win and their self-confidence will inevitably improve. When they arrive on the battlefield, they will naturally throw their cowardice aside. At this time, it will no longer be difficult to fight with the Tatars.

That is why Chen Xi tried to make his officers and soldiers launch a frontal assault when prepared in the battle against Wulicha and Yibula, and on the way from Juyongguan to assist the capital, and constantly change between attack and defense. Gradually, the officers and soldiers became more and more familiar with this way of fighting based on the military formation.

In previous confrontations with the Tartars, Chen Xi was basically invincible and invincible. The Tartars were destroyed everywhere they went. In this case, the officers and soldiers felt that the Tartars were just like this, and gradually developed a fighting style of moving forward and retreating freely and ease in the war.

Chen Xi used this method to train a group of Beijing soldiers who had poor training but no combat experience, who were completely the mentality of the minor citizens of the Ming Dynasty, and became the most elite professional soldiers of this era.

At this time, outside the Xizhimen of the capital, this fierce confrontation between the elite Ming soldiers and the Mongolian cavalry that had once spread across the Eurasian continent was a vivid battle.

Although the Tatars had an absolute advantage, they could never turn their advantages into victory. On the contrary, every time the Ming army counterattack was fierce, the Tatar cavalry could not exert their maneuverability and flexibility and strong impact. They were beaten by the combination of cannons, muskets and crossbows.

In terms of loss of troops, four or five thousand people on the Tatar side have lost their lives and are very scared of losses, especially in this kind of battle in the plains where the Tatars are best at, which is unacceptable.

Since Chen Xi led his troops to appear for the first time, the Tatars knew who was in command of this army. Thinking of Chen Xi's great reputation, many of the soldiers and horses participating in the war had stopped in the army. Even though the generals of the Khan army who came to supervise the war shouted in every possible way, they still did not dare to approach the Ming army to avoid becoming a stepping stone for other tribes.

The Tatars had no good way to resolve the embarrassing situation in front of them. After all, the Ming army's central army formation was as solid as a rock and could not be attacked at all. Conservatively, there were as many as 100 artillery pieces inside, not only with complete shield and spearmen protection, but also long-range attack weapons such as muskets, crossbows, bows and arrows to block the Tatars' offensive.

After many tests, the Tartars found that as long as they approached within two miles of the Ming army's central formation, they would suffer. Since this was the case, it would be better to take the initiative to withdraw and launch a tentative attack from different directions, find the weaknesses of the Ming army, and then wait for an opportunity to launch a decisive charge.

But at this time, the cavalry led by Wang Lingzhi and others were not idle. The task Wang Lingzhi received from Chenxi was to cause trouble for the Tartars, and always appeared in places where he was needed the most, giving the Tartars the most fatal blow.

Later, the Tatars became smarter and simply retreated their troops and horses when the Ming cavalry launched a counterattack, so that even if Wang Lingzhi's cavalry retreated after attacking, the Tatars could launch a relatively long pursuit battle, and use this to kill many Ming cavalry.

The situation on the battlefield is constantly changing.

After Chen Xi discovered that the cavalry harassment tactics he formulated were useless, he decisively changed the plan, and the war drums changed the drum beats and rhythm until the end of the stop.

All the cavalry in charge of the Ming army who were in charge of the attack quickly retreated and gathered in front of the central army camp.

At the same time, the five infantry phalanx attacked again, still stopped at 500 meters away from the central army formation and were ready for the battle.

The Tartars had suffered enough of the Ming army's infantry formation before, and they did not dare to act rashly at this time, and there was a stalemate on the battlefield.

The Tartars did not dare to attack the Ming army, and the Ming Dynasty's infantry phalanx also stopped on the battlefield because they needed to protect the safety of the Central Army.

...

...

At the head of Xizhimen, when the defenders, Zhu Houzhao, Zhang Mao, Li Dongyang and others were surprised when they saw this scene.

After a war lasted for two hours, it ended abruptly in the clear confrontation between the two armies, Chu, River and Han borders. The battle between the two sides fought in a calm and beautiful scenery, which was incredible.

Zhu Houzhao asked in confusion: "Why did you stop?"

"this……"

Zhang Mao was also puzzled. He had seen many battles on the battlefield, but he only saw such incredible wars as today.

Zhang Mao thought to himself: "The Ming army outside the city is not only brave and good at fighting, but also has orders and orders from the top and subordinates, and has a uniform army. I have never seen it before. The Tartars are relatively poor, and they are still messy everywhere. It is obviously still unsure of the shock."

"There is a difficult problem now. If there are no soldiers and horses in the city, then the generals of the royal army will always be in a dangerous situation. After all, the number of soldiers and horses of the Tartars is several times higher. It is like sailing in the water. Although people can paddle the water, they can never break free from the water."

Li Dongyang was also confused, but he had rich experience in handling political affairs, including many official documents from the border. He now boldly speculated: "Di Yi is waiting for the subsequent troops to arrive?"

Without the need for others to answer, Zhu Houzhao directly denied: "It is impossible. The Tartars attacked almost 50,000 or 60,000 troops, but they still could not completely defeat the troops led by Mr. Chen, and even formed a confrontation."

"There are only about 100,000 soldiers and horses that the Tartars besieged the capital, and half of them are already occupied. If they are transferred from other city gates, will they not be afraid that our Ming army will take the initiative to attack and cooperate with Mr. Chen?"

Even though Li Dongyang did not want to admit that what Zhu Houzhao said was reasonable, he still felt ashamed and sighed: "What the prince said is not false. Even Di Yi must beware of the troops in my city attacking and cooperate with reinforcements inside and outside. But I can't make up my mind, and the emperor and Liu Shaofu probably won't agree... This is really a great irony!"

Others should be wary of your actions, but you have no intention of doing this at all. It is too ridiculous to say it. If the Tatars know about it, they will definitely send troops from other places to encircle and suppress Chenxi without hesitation.
