~~~~~~

Early the next morning, before it was dark, Li Yuanqing got up in high spirits.

Li Yuanqing doesn't want to care about whether Huang Taiji's "Ehuang Nv Ying" plan is true or false at this time, and he has no intention to care about it. What he needs to do most now is to control his own rhythm.

No matter how the wind blows from the southeast or northwest, I will stand firm and unmoving!

Whether Huang Taiji is willing to give it or not, how can he, Li Yuanqing, take it with his own hands?

As long as you have the strength, why should you be controlled by others?

Sun Chengzong also got up very early today.

After being enlightened by Li Yuanqing yesterday, the old man was in good spirits and said with a smile: "Yuanqing, our sons worked hard all night long, and the dog Tatars must have had a hard time with it. However, in the second half of the night, our sons' power weakened a little.

, I’m afraid the effect is not as good as imagined.”

Li Yuanqing smiled, Old Sun was still a little anxious.

However, it is a good thing that Sun Chengzong can express his anxious mood instead of hiding it.

After a moment, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Mr. Ge, you don't need to worry. Let's just add more fire tonight!"

Sun Chengzong immediately understood what Li Yuanqing meant and couldn't help but admire Li Yuanqing.

With what happened last night, the Hou Jin army will definitely be on guard tonight, but if the Ming army suddenly increases in strength today, it will not be as easy for them as it was last night.

The entire battle situation is still firmly under Li Yuanqing's control.

"Haha. Yuan Qing, with your words, I feel much more at ease. Come on, let's go to the top of the city for a walk."

Li Yuanqing accompanied Sun Chengzong to stroll around the city for a short while. The sentinel at the front came back with news that early this morning, behind the Hou Jin army's camp and to the north, a vanguard army had set off with more than 20,000 slaves.

Sun Chengzong's expression couldn't help but change, "Yuan Qing, the dog Tatars want to run away. This... we..."

Sun Chengzong seemed to want to say something, but in the end he had a long memory and did not say anything.

Li Yuanqing smiled: "There is no need to worry, Mr. Ge. The Tatars running away may not be a bad thing for us. This just shows that our war in Pinggu has achieved results. Just let them run for two days first."

"But Yuan Qing, if they run away, these people..."

But before he finished speaking, Sun Chengzong suddenly reacted.

The Tatars have horses, but how can the common people have horses?

It was destined that their speed would never be faster. After all, it was not a matter of one mile or two miles from Pinggu to Xifengkou.

However, if this is the case, it is inevitable to have to fight in the wilderness with the main force of Hou Jin. This...

Li Yuanqing understood Sun Chengzong's worries and said with a smile: "Mr. Ge, before Yuan Qing, I always liked to eat walnuts. But I thought the skin of walnuts was too hard. Later, one of Yuan Qing's concubines suggested a way to Yuan Qing.

Mr. Ge, do you know what this method is?"

Now that things have come to this, how can Sun Chengzong still not understand what Li Yuanqing is thinking?

For a moment, he smiled and shook his head and said: "Yuan Qing, you, you. From now on, I will never interfere in military affairs easily. Yuan Qing, you will control everything."

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Mr. Ge, you are too humble. Regarding the war, we still need to discuss it and brainstorm ideas."

…………

After chatting with Sun Chengzong, he met with General Chen Zhong who was on duty last night and exchanged the results of last night. Li Yuanqing came to the head of Xicheng to check the formation of the Jin army.

At this time, the sky was completely bright and the view was very good.

From Li Yuanqing's perspective, he could clearly see that to the north of the Hou Jin army's camp, there were many Han slaves carrying large and small bags, dragging cattle, horses and mule carts, like a thick black line, slowly moving towards the north.

At this time, there were quite a few Ming army cavalry on the Pinggu defense line, but to be honest, none of them could compete head-on with the Hou Jin army...

In the past few days, although Li Yuanqing had used various means to partially boost the morale of the Ming army, Li Yuanqing knew very well that once the various Ming armies were allowed to follow the Jin army in field battles, there would probably be countless more Han slaves.

The population is small...

Nature is here, and it is difficult for Li Yuanqing to find any real solution to this problem.

The best way is to defeat the main force of the Jin army and cause chaos in their headquarters first. They have no choice but to flee in panic. Only then will the Ming army's cavalry have the opportunity to pursue them and reveal the power of the cavalry.

But~~, just like Li Taibai’s famous saying, this is a bit ‘hard to reach the sky’.

However, once the Jin army's formation dispersed, it was easy to reveal flaws.

This will give the Ming Army and Li Yuanqing a better opportunity to strike more accurately at a certain node of the Later Jin Army.

Thus, lines are drawn from points, and surfaces are drawn from lines.

After breakfast, Li Yuanqing came forward at about eight o'clock. At about eight o'clock, Li Yuanqing summoned the generals of various ministries and held a short meeting. Then, he ordered the main forces of the Mangui Tribe and Wu Sangui Tribe to go out to fight today to challenge the majesty of the Jin Army from the front.

A frontal attack is far different from a sneaky move from the side.

Li Yuanqing's orders to Man Gui and Wu Sangui were also very simple. If you can kill a Tatar, then it is a Tatar. If you can't kill, then harass them as much as possible. If the Tatars come out to pursue with the main force, then just run back.

Man Gui and Wu Sangui were overjoyed to have such an almost performance-like opportunity, and they quickly prepared for it.

Not long after, two elite cavalry troops were dispatched from the southern front one after another, heading straight towards the rear Jin army's camp.

On the entire battlefield at this time, both sides stopped bulldozing because it was of no use.

Both Huang Taiji and Li Yuanqing understood very well that it would be enough for the two sides to confront each other, and neither one could eat a big fat man in one bite and devour the other directly.

This gives the entire battlefield more depth and more room for staggering.

The main force of the Ming army took the initiative to attack. Naturally, the most frightened ones were those in front of the Hou Jin army's camp who lost their courage and scattered like birds and beasts, running back without their lives.

Then in the Jin army camp, the rear was sending large troops to the north. Huang Taiji was not willing to entangle with Man Gui and Wu Sangui for a while, and did not eliminate his troops in time to confront and block them.

How could Man Gui and Wu Sangui waste such an opportunity?

Immediately facing the Jin army camp was a round of rockets.

It's a pity that Huang Taiji and Hou Jinjun have long lost their memory and have taken very good fire prevention measures. The fires like Man Gui and Wu Sangui can no longer play an effective role.

At noon, Huang Taiji directly ordered the elite cavalry of the Zhenghuang Banner to dispatch Man Gui and Wu Sangui, and ordered his elite Zhenghuang Banners to station outside the camp gate to prevent the Ming army from doing this again.

But Li Yuanqing was not in a hurry. In the afternoon, Zu Dashou and Zuo Fu came on stage, just to harass and seduce them, and would never get entangled with the Hou Jin army.

After all, the horsepower of Guan Ning, Zu Dashou and Zuo Fu, who consumed 90% of the Ming Dynasty's military pay, was not much worse than that of Zhenghuang Banner.

Unlike the rout of the previous night, the Ming army did a very good job in responding. As long as the Jin army dared to pursue them, they would greet them with artillery, explosive shells, etc. shining in their faces.

This also made the elite riders of Zhenghuang Banner feel a little tired from running until the evening, and they were simply exhausted.

…………

In a blink of an eye, three days have passed, and it has come to the fifth day of March in the third year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty.

After several days of unrestricted harassment by Li Yuanqing, although the Jin Army already had hundreds of thousands of slaves on the northern front, the Tatars who stayed behind in the camp all had dark circles and red eyes. It was obvious that

I didn't sleep well.

At this time, the main force in the entire Hou Jin Army camp was already less than 50,000.

The time is ripe for a decisive battle.

Early in the morning of the fifth day of March, the main force of Li Yuanqing's Changsheng Battalion was in the middle, the main force of Chen Zhong's troops were on the left, and Zhang Pan, Chen Liangce, and Xu Fuzuo's troops were on the right.

The Mangui Tribe and the Left Auxiliary Tribe are located on the outer left wing. The Zu Dashou Tribe, Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui and his son's tribe, and Hou Shilu and his son's tribe are located on the right wing.

The Ming army, with a strength of 70,000 to 80,000 people, slowly advanced and officially launched a general attack on the Hou Jin army's camp.

In the Houjin Army camp, there is a high viewing platform.

Facing the overwhelming Ming army's battle formation, which was like a red tide, Huang Taiji couldn't help but frown tightly.

Although he had seen through Li Yuanqing's tricks a long time ago, with these Han slaves and property burdens, even if he knew Li Yuanqing's intentions, he had no good solution.

After all, the Ming army's fortifications were extensive and the Changsheng Camp's firepower was so advanced that he couldn't take the initiative to attack them, so he could only drag them.

But at this time, it was obvious that there was no longer any delay.

"Khan, the Minggu are powerful. Their military morale has increased a lot these days. It's not easy for us to deal with them."

Next to Huang Taiji, his die-hard brother Jierhalang looked sad, his eyes were red, and he was obviously exhausted.

Dai Shan also said: "Great Khan, Li Yuanqing is going to give us a fatal blow. This matter..."

Seeing the arrogance of the Ming army, Mang Gurtai also became angry: "You are afraid of a ball! Although there are many Ming dogs, it is easier to handle. Li Yuanqing and the Changsheng camp are in the middle at this time. As long as we put their

If the two wings of the bastard are destroyed, Minggou will definitely scatter in all directions. At that time, I, Dajin, can decide the outcome with a single battle! I understand the trouble of this bastard Li Yuanqing!"

Huang Taiji frowned slightly.

But the key to Mang Gurtai's words, 'not being rude but not being rude', is that they can boost morale. Naturally, Huang Taiji would not be able to criticize him harshly in person.

After a moment, he exhaled a long breath and said: "What Fifth Brother said is true. However, our army has been exhausted by Li Yuanqing's harassment. If we are against the Ming army, it may not be a wise choice."

"Then, what should we do?"

Mang Gurtai became even more irritable for a moment, "Great Khan, we can't just wait for these fools to come and kill us, right? This..."

Huang Taiji looked at Daishan at this time.

Daishan couldn't help but be speechless.

The idiot Lao Ba obviously wanted to withdraw, but he had to use his mouth to say it...
