Chapter 140: Imperial Merchants, Overseas Trade!!!

The army marched rapidly in the night.

There are no asphalt roads here, and the speed is naturally not lifted, and it cannot be too fast.

Moreover, unlike the army of the Northern Yuan, most of Li Yunlong’s men were mainly infantry.

Before dawn, you need to find a place to set up camp.

Unlike the layout of the prefectures and counties of the Ming Dynasty, there were relatively few cities, and the herdsmen here were mainly based on animal husbandry, supplemented by hunting, handicrafts and other side businesses, and a small part of agriculture.

Compared with the Central Plains, it is very desolate and empty.

After one night of rapid marching, not even a village was encountered, and Li Yunlong chose a hidden place for the army to camp.

On the night of the second day, he continued to march sharply, and directly detoured from the rear of the Beiyuan Castle, which had 20,000 troops.

And before the army detoured, Li Yunlong sent scouts early to solve the eyes and ears of the other party.

Scouts on both sides, in the dark night, launched a fierce battle.

And Li Yunlong’s subordinates simply and neatly solved 30 Northern Yuan scouts, and did not let go of any of them.

It wasn’t until the afternoon of the second day, when they found that the scouts’ horses had returned to the Beiyuan City Pool, but there was no one on horseback, that the guards of the Beiyuan City realized that something was wrong.

Because their scouts never came back to report the news, and not a single scout returned.

Anything like this has never happened before.

Therefore, the guards in the city sent people to look around for traces of the scouts, and worked all afternoon, finding no results, and did not find the figure of the Daming army.

And that night, Li Yunlong had already rounded the rear of the Northern Yuan Army with 80,000 troops.

And now, the defenders of the Northern Yuan City have completely realized that something is wrong, because new news has arrived, and the Western Route Army seems to have deviated from the route and disappeared.

The general hurriedly sent people to inform General Naha.

The disappearance of the Western Route Army, coupled with the scouts on their side, none of them returned, obviously, there was a big situation, could it be that the Western Route Army bypassed from behind, wanting to sneak attack the Northern Yuan Army?

The thought flashed through my mind and felt incredible.

Because the current army of the Northern Yuan Middle Road is still very large, with 150,000 troops.

Although several decisive battles were carried out between the two sides, they were all moderate, and there were not too many casualties, and General Nahade was also very cautious, mainly focusing on defense, and did not give General Lanyu a chance.

However, all kinds of unusual signs still made the general realize that something was definitely wrong, and Naha must be sent out of the general and prepare in advance.

Before the messengers arrived at the barracks out of Naha, Li Yunlong had already brought 80,000 troops and suddenly killed them in the night!

At this moment, it was already the second half of the night, and the Northern Yuan army that had just experienced a decisive battle was a little tired and had already begun to rest.

General Nahade also made some deployments to prevent a sneak attack, but mainly against the southern area, after all, his own large rear could not have problems.

If the enemy has a large number of troops around the rear, it will definitely not be able to avoid its own detection.

If it’s just a small group of surprise soldiers, it’s tantamount to an egg hitting a stone, and there is no need to worry about it at all.

However, the least likely thing happened after all.

In the rear of the barracks, there was a mess, shouting to kill!

In the firelight, the big flag embroidered with Qi characters fluttered in this night!

At this moment, the Northern Yuan army did not know how many people sneaked attack, but only felt that the sky was overwhelming, and the mountains were full of Daming soldiers.

The unique gunfire of Hongwu rifles first broke the quiet of the night, and then, a swarm of rockets, like slender fire dragons, rushed into the Beiyuan military camp, instantly lighting up a large area north of the Beiyuan military camp.

A large area on the north side of the barracks turned into a sea of fire.

Subsequently, the Daming archers covered the infantry in the rear, launched a charge, and in just one round, they broke through the outer defenses and attacked the Northern Yuan military camp.

Many Northern Yuan soldiers were still asleep, just got up in a daze, and before they even grasped the combat knife next to them, they were hacked to death on the spot.

There was a big chaos in the rear, General Nahade was woken up from his sleep, he gasped for armor, jumped up from the bed, did not need to wash his face, learned the news, listened to the chaotic shouts of killing outside, and instantly woke up.

He hurriedly sent people to check, and at the same time, one order after another, orderly, was orderly issued, mobilizing troops and rushing to the north.

Because the grain and grass were in the rear, he suspected that this was a small group of surprise soldiers sent by Lan Yu, who were coming for the grain and grass.

Just like the last time he went to Hongwu rifle, it must be a small force.

Otherwise, it is impossible to go around the rear silently.

‘How many people are there’?”

General Nahade grabbed one of the soldiers and asked loudly.

The soldier pointed to the north in a panic, and said in a loud voice: “General, I’m afraid, there are more than 100,000 troops!” Densely packed, all of them are Daming’s soldiers! And with a rifle, and a swarm of rockets! ”

General Nahade was incredulous: “What kind of joke? More than 100,000 troops?! ”

On the northwest side of the barracks, there is a city, and this city is not particularly far from the main army, and people are sent to communicate with each other every day.

If there are enemy troops from the west, they will not be able to hide from this city, and there are more than 20,000 troops in this city.

If you want to conquer it, it will not happen overnight.

It was impossible for the Daming army not to attack this city, but to choose to go around itself.

Because, in this way, it is very likely to be attacked from both sides, and no general will be so stupid and choose this way of fighting.

Besides, there are really tens of thousands of troops sneaking attack, can they hide from their scouts?

It’s impossible not to know!

However, the facts were in front of him, Li Yunlong had already led the army and rushed the barracks of the Northern Yuan army into a rage.

However, there are 150,000 troops here, and General Nahachu is not idle, quickly gathering all forces and colliding fiercely with Li Yunlong’s 80,000 troops.

The two sides were inextricably killed, and the generals such as Qiu Fu who followed Li Yunlong were extremely shocked.

They didn’t expect that they really completed this circumvention action, moreover, they entered the camp of the Northern Yuan Army so quickly, and the 30,000 troops carried by Li Yunlong showed terrifying combat effectiveness!

On the way to the march, I felt that the military quality of these 30,000 troops was very good, but I did not feel particularly powerful.

However, at this moment, when such a large-scale sneak attack battle occurred, the gap between these 30,000 troops and their own soldiers suddenly appeared.

If it is said that these 30,000 troops from Qi Di can fight one against ten, it may be an exaggeration, but to say that one enemy is five, it is absolutely not mixed with water!

It’s so raw!

When you start a war, it’s even crazier!

Moreover, this can be so fierce without wearing armor!

Where did they know that before Zhu Rong arrived in Qingzhou City, he first went to collect the right to collect the troops, and he attached great importance to the combat effectiveness and loyalty of his own soldiers.

These tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, under the tutelage of Li Yunlong, quickly increased their combat effectiveness and created this powerful force for His Royal Highness King Qi.

And the soldiers usually train very crazy, because the better the performance under King Qi, the better the treatment.

Usually, it can be seen from eating that the better the soldiers, the more food is far more than those who lag behind.

And from the military salary, it is better to distinguish between high and low.

Those who perform poorly can only be paid according to the minimum standards of the imperial court, and even delay for a month or two at every turn.

However, the good performance will far exceed the military salary stipulated by the imperial court.

After all, it is a pro-soldier, and the Qi Royal Mansion will let them earn more in the form of tips.

As for going out on a campaign, not to mention, this is a great opportunity to get ahead and make meritorious contributions.

And the greater the merit, the more reward.

If it is an ordinary general, promising these rewards, the soldiers may not take it seriously, and even if they do, they will not work too hard.

But His Royal Highness King Qi is different, because all the soldiers know that the Qi Royal Mansion has a very large industry, and His Royal Highness King Qi has the ability to fulfill his promises.

And the promises made by His Royal Highness King Qi before have never disappointed.

Therefore, this is a huge opportunity for all soldiers, how can it not be desperate.

As a soldier, in addition to eating mixed food, I don’t want to gain some wealth!

Coupled with the usual training, it far exceeds the training intensity of ordinary soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is not at all comparable to those soldiers under His Royal Highness King Yan.

In the eyes of many Daming soldiers, the Mongol cavalry was very fierce and brave, coming and going without a trace, and it was very difficult to deal with, however, in the eyes of Li Yunlong, in the eyes of these soldiers of the King of Qi, they did not take them as one thing at all.

It seems that they are not fierce and murderous enemies at all, but all money, all credit.

On weekdays, when this place is in the same place, there is no such opportunity to make great achievements.

It was difficult to launch such a large-scale battle, and everyone was like fighting chicken blood, screaming and rushing into the camp of the Northern Yuan, killing people when they saw them.

It seems that the opposite side is not some regular army of the Northern Yuan, but a father and enemy!

Coupled with the superiority of weapons, it will soon destroy a large area of the northern part of the Northern Yuan camp in a destructive way.

Then, the troops urgently mobilized by General Nahade collided fiercely!

“What the hell is this Daming’s army? Can it fall from the sky?! ”

General Nahade looked at his own defeated army and muttered, a little dumbfounded.

At this moment, it was about 4 o’clock in the morning, and there was a sudden chaos behind the Northern Yuan camp, with gunshots all around, shouts of killing that shook the sky, and the blazing fire and smoke, how could it not be discovered by General Lan Yu’s middle road army.

The two sides had been facing off in the north and south every day, and several large-scale frontal battles broke out, although in the end they were more restrained and both retreated, but the two sides did not open too far away.

General Lan Yu and the other generals stood on a high place, looking a little strangely at the chaotic Northern Yuan camp in the north.

“‘What’s the situation?”

General Blue Jade asked loudly.

Yet no one can give an answer.

A general next to him suddenly reminded: “It can’t be that Li Yunlong is really going around and attacking the Northern Yuan military camp, right?!” ”

This voice is not loud, this idea blurted out, and then, floating in the cold night, into everyone’s ears, but like a thunder and explosion, shocking everyone’s brains!

General Blue Jade stood on a high place and almost fell off it.

Before, everyone speculated that there was a possibility, and Li Yunlong’s actions seemed to want to do this, but after everyone’s analysis, this is simply an impossible task.

But besides Li Yunlong, who else could run to the rear of the Northern Yuan army and suddenly launch a surprise attack?

Old General Xu Da is still trapped in a quagmire, unable to move by the 50,000 troops of the Northern Yuan, and he is in a state of disarray.

It was impossible for him to suddenly run behind the Northern Yuan.

Only Li Yunlong, only Li Yunlong’s army, which had lost contact, could have this possibility.

“How did he manage it?!”

“I don’t know, why is the march so fast?”

“Didn’t he attack the city through which he had to pass?”

Lan Yu’s reaction was also very fast, drawing his long sword and shouting loudly: “All army soldiers, listen to my orders!”

The whole army attacked!

Follow me, fight!! ”

Blue Jade roared hysterically, and in an instant, the entire barracks woke up!

The 200,000 army quickly assembled and rushed towards the north, as fast as possible.

Although Lan Yu wants to make Li Yunlong suffer a big loss, find some stumbling blocks for His Royal Highness King Qi.

But he was also an excellent general with great military talent.

He knew that this opportunity was fleeting!

He and Naha out, the north and south confrontation for such a long time, tonight as long as you seize the opportunity, you can crush the whole army!

At this moment, General Naha’s whole person was stupid, he thought that he reacted quickly, and he quickly mobilized his troops to resist the charge of Li Yunlong’s army.

Although so many Daming troops suddenly appeared from the rear, it really startled him, but after all, his side is a superior force, and there are many horses, and it is completely no problem to organize to resist.

However, the other party quickly broke away its defensive formation like a group of vicious wolves breaking into the sheepfold.

Rockets were launched one after another, like dragons of fire, scurrying around the barracks, and tents, grain and grass, heavy weight, and gunpowder were all burning with fire.

The whole north has turned into a sea of fire.

“Quick! Block them! ”

General Nahazu brought in two more soldiers and horses to try to block the other party’s impact.

However, the army waving the banner of the ‘Qi’ seemed to be unstoppable, like a torrent of steel, impacting its own soldiers.

The troops that were thrown in were quickly dispersed, and many soldiers, already on fire, rolled on the ground howling and trying to extinguish the fire on their bodies.

“Whose strength is this? How fierce it is?! ”

General Nahade asked with trembling eyes.

“General, this is the seventh prince of Daming, the army of His Royal Highness King Qi!”

General Naha’s eyes are about to pop out, His Royal Highness King Qi, it’s him again!

General Nahachu is not unfamiliar with the name of His Royal Highness King Qi, because according to the information he received, the terrifying Hongwu rifle was created by His Royal Highness King Qi.

It was actually his army that flew!

At this moment, Li Yunlong had already led the army to completely break down the defensive lines, not giving the Northern Yuan army a chance to buffer at all.

In an instant, Li Yunlong, who was riding a horse, dressed in cotton clothes, holding a gun in one hand, and wielding a machete in the other, and General Naha, who was riding a horse and wearing armor, standing behind the Northern Yuan Army and commanding the battle, faced each other in the firelight!
