Chapter 791 Jinling Spring Formation (7)
With hundreds of thousands of troops under the eyes of both sides, it is actually difficult to play any conspiracy.
At this time, it was a battle of open conspiracy, a showdown of the forces, morale, and combat power of the two armies.
This is a real hard battle to put on the stance. The only thing left is the decision of the coaches on both sides and whether they can completely execute the coach's wishes.
Hundreds of thousands of troops were placed within an area of nearly a hundred miles. Rangers were leaping out from each other and spyed on each other.
However, the Han army had a horse farm in Liaodong, and the number and quality of cavalry were far higher than that of the Ming army. In the cavalry and whistle battle, the Han army quickly gained an advantage. It was precisely because of this that Zhao Ming dared to lead the cavalry and go to reconnaissance in person.
The cavalry forced a few Han army scouts along the way and advanced to Baohua Mountain. They found that there were Ming troops on the mountain, so they went to Tangshan again, and the Ming army also established a camp.
Seeing this, Zhao Ming couldn't help but laugh at himself, "What we can think of is Zheng Chenggong and Jin Shenghuan, but fortunately, there are not many defenders and there is still a chance. In this battle, we can only win with our strength."
After speaking, Zhao Ming pulled his horse back to the camp, and then arranged a cavalry to go out everywhere, interspersed between Gaozi and Maoshan, harassed the Ming military camp.
Over the years, the Ming army fought against the Qing army and fought a civil war for another two years, and none of them were good at it.
Whether it was Zheng Chenggong's Gaozi camp or Maoshan's Jinshenghuan formation, the camp was stable and the army was ready to fight, causing the Han cavalry to return in vain.
However, although no results were achieved, the Han cavalry galloped back and forth on the battlefield and ran around the camp, which still suppressed the morale of the Ming army and increased the power of the Han army.
Outside Gaozi's camp, Ming and Han cavalry fought in the upper reaches of the wilderness.
At this time, a team of more than 300 cavalry rushed from the west, forcing the Han army's cavalry to harass him and entered Gaozi camp.
In the tent of the commander, King Zheng Chenggong of Yanping and generals Li Chengdong, Jin Shenghuan and others were holding their last meeting.
Zhao Ming's army has arrived in Zhenjiang, crossed the canal, and settling down a village less than fifteen miles away from Gaozi Camp. It is certain that after resting tonight, a decisive battle will come tomorrow.
At this time, the three of them were making the final arrangement, but the curtain suddenly lifted up, and a team of soldiers surrounded Zhu Youjian in armor.
"Your Majesty!" Zheng Chenggong was slightly stunned, and the three of them hurriedly stood up and bowed.
Zhu Youjian came in with a smile on his face and waved his hand, "Successfully, you guys continue!"
Zheng Chenggong said: "Didn't Your Majesty be in Nanjing and attack the imperial city? Could it be~"
Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong showed joy on their faces. Could it be that the imperial city had been captured? In this way, the morale of the Han army would be discharged, and the chances of victory would be greatly increased.
Zhu Youjian shook his head and said, "The rebels are still fighting stubbornly, but the city is broken for only two days. I have handed over the siege to Du Qing and rushed over in advance to boost the morale of the army!"
Zheng Chenggong and others hurriedly saluted, "With Your Majesty in the army, you will win this battle!"
Zhu Youjian sat down in the position of the coach and smiled: "Successful, you continue to discuss and make sure to formulate a complete strategy to fight the enemy!"
Zheng Chenggong lowered his head, feeling a little unhappy, but it was hard to say.
Zhu Yihai, who was left in the imperial city, was no longer able to affect the overall situation. The key to this battle would be the duel between the Ming and Han dynasties.
When Zhu Youjian arrives at the front line at this time, he must be uneasy and does not trust him to defeat Zhao Ming.
"Yes!" Zheng Chenggong bowed his fists and then continued to discuss with Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong.
Zhu Youjian sat in the position of the coach and asked Zheng Chenggong's arrangements from time to time, discussed and deployed them until dark.
After the discussion was settled, Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong rushed back to the camp overnight, while Zheng Chenggong accompanied Zhu Youjian to the outside of the tent.
After it got dark, the Ming army and Han army camps all lit braziers, and soldiers wearing torches patrolled back and forth, like two rotating nebula in the night sky.
Zhu Youjian saw the Han army camps spreading more than ten miles away, like a galaxy, and was shocked.
"Success! If you defeat the rebels in this battle, the world should be settled! What do you want to do in the future?" Zhu Youjian suddenly asked.
Zheng Chenggong was slightly stunned. After defeating Zhao Ming, peace would indeed come to the Ming Dynasty, but there were Zhou and Dongqing in the north, and there were still many vassal states within the Ming Dynasty. I am afraid that it would be impossible to truly maintain peace.
Zheng Chenggong thought about it and did not express his true thoughts. Instead, he said: "The world has been in chaos over the years, and I have suffered from wars. If it is really peaceful, I will return to my hometown in Fujian, be a leisurely prince, and enjoy the peace."
Zhu Youjian nodded with satisfaction, but then he said with a loss: "If I defeat Zhao Ming in this battle, the Ming Dynasty will be unified again. If God gives me another ten or twenty years, I have the confidence to make the world stable. By then, after my death, the prince is already the eldest prince in his thirty years old and has enough ability to handle the government. The Ming Dynasty will surely be in a long-term state, but~"
Speaking of this, Zhu Youjian suddenly coughed, and Zheng Chenggong quickly exclaimed, "Your Majesty!"
Zhu Youjian took advantage of the situation to hold Zheng Chenggong's hand, and his eyes suddenly became sharp, "However, I may not have that long to cultivate a qualified monarch for the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, after this battle, success cannot be free, and I still have a heavy trust in the future!"
When Zheng Chenggong saw that Mr. Zhu Youjian was a little moved, he said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I obey Your Majesty's arrangements."
Zhu Youjian grabbed Zheng Chenggong's hand and shook it a few times. He said that he would use Zheng Chenggong in the future. Of course, he had no idea that he had been hinting that all five of them were all powerful ministers who had military power or had great strength.
When he left Huguang, he grabbed He Tengjiao and said such words, and later he said similar words in private to Du Yinxi, Jin Shenghuan, and even to Li Chengdong who had just been cast.
This is to encourage them and finish the battle well, and to comfort them and tell them that he will not kill the donkey.
Of course, this is mainly because Zhu Youjian can no longer eradicate them, so he hopes to integrate them together, restrain each other, and jointly defend the Ming Dynasty and his son.
Zhu Youjian shook Zheng Chenggong's hand and said emotionally: "Success, I'll ask you in this battle in the future!"
Just as he was talking about this, a sharp roar outside Gaozi's camp, and a rocket, dragged its long tail, fell into the Ming army camp.
Zhu Youjian was shocked when he saw this. Zheng Chenggong narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "It is an act of harassment by the enemy!"
When Zhu Youjian heard the words, he saw the rockets rising everywhere. He looked at the Han army camp in the distance and murmured: "The decisive battle will be held tomorrow!"
