Baoqing Prefecture, about two thousand miles away from the capital, was placed in the entire territory of the Ming Dynasty, and it was not a place that military strategists must fight for. At this time, Baoqing Prefecture had a limited population and was not very prosperous in all prefectures, counties and villages.
The Han Wang Army's garrison was within a radius of dozens of miles, and there were not many people. Hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed here for many days, and there was news that the official army was heading south. All the people who could escape were running away now!
So in late October, the place seemed a little lonely.
However, the battle here is undoubtedly being cared for by hundreds of millions of officials and people from more than a dozen provinces and more than a thousand counties of the Ming Dynasty!
Although the battle will break out in this place, the imperial court and the Han Palace have already alarmed the whole world for more than a year ago, and the area affected is not only Baoqing Prefecture.
A battle that shocked the world.
However, the people in the army have not felt too much thrilling. It may be that people's sight is limited and their ears cannot hear too far, and the movements they can witness and hear are really limited.
It was early in the morning of October 23rd, and it was not yet dawn.The military camps on the earth have gradually become lively.
Two days ago, the Han Wangjun camp moved north for more than ten miles, and was still near the Fuyi River.
Because there was a large mountain ridge near the previous station, which was not conducive to so many people launching a large formation; therefore, the Han Wang army chose a relatively open battlefield and moved all the barracks north for more than ten miles, just in time to oppose the government troops from the north and south.
The sky in the east was faintly white, and the night had not yet opened.The sky to the north was bright with fire. It was some mountains and forests burned by the Han Wangjun two days ago, and the embers have not yet been extinguished.
Zhu Gaoxu was sitting in the tiled house of the central army. He sat cross-legged, facing a pair of armor; he had been sitting here for a long time.
The armor hanging on the wooden shelf seemed to be talking to the man in a hazy way.
Zhu Gaoxu woke up in the middle of the night and then couldn't sleep at all. Later, he simply got up and sat here.
Although no one disturbed it, everything was not still.The firelight in the distance outside the doors and windows, his eyes could feel the change in the intensity of the light, and his breathing was moving, evenly and fluctuating.
Today, it will affect the joys and sorrows of many people, life and death, and the high and low will be difficult to win.The result is obviously quite serious for both sides!
At some point, Miao Jin was standing by the door next to him and quietly looked at Zhu Gaoxu sitting on the cushion.
When Zhu Gaoxu found her, he turned his head and said blindly: A normal mind is often the best.
Miao Jin leaned against the door and nodded.
Her expression was very complicated. When she saw Zhu Gaoxu looking at her, she showed a strong smile; but her smile was obviously a little melancholy, and she also showed some indescribable pity and heartache.
She wanted to speak but stopped, and finally whispered: Gao Xu, I'll give it to you after you finish the war...
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a slight sound came from the near outside the door. Chen Dachui, who was big and thick, walked into the door. He clasped his fists and said: Prince, we have put the copper leak, the time has come!
Zhu Gaoxu said without looking back: Order the central army to beat the drums and roars.
Chen Dahui said: I’ll get the order!
At this time, the eunuchs and personal guards outside the door also came in one after another, bringing toothbrushes, water, and breakfast.
Zhu Gaoxu was busy washing and eating. After he was ready, he put the cold forged armor on the wooden rack on his body with the help of others.
When he saw Miao Jin walking in again, he suddenly remembered what had happened just now and asked casually: What did you want to say before?
Miao Jin's face turned slightly red, and the expression in her almond eyes was subtle, charming and shy, with worry and resentment. She said: Nothing.
Zhu Gaoxu had no intention of asking questions at this time, so he picked up the Yanling sword on the table, pulled out a piece with a squeak, glanced at the brand new blade, and sent it back, putting the sword around his waist.
Then he picked up a long-handled saber and asked someone to tie it to his back.
Before this, he rarely fought in person, but today he must be prepared to see blood from the knife!Zhu Gaoxu couldn't kill several people alone, but at some moments, his personal rush to boost morale.
Miao Jin glanced at his weapon and said in a trembling voice: Gao Xu, you have to be careful.
Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at her and said, "You are in the military camp, waiting for me to come back."
Miao Jin nodded solemnly, her eyes on Zhu Gaoxu and never left.
Outside the central army, there was already noisy on all sides.Zhu Gaoxu ordered the central army to set off, and he walked out of the door and took the reins from Chen Dachui's hand.
There were too many troops participating in this battle, and some barracks were far away, so the generals of each army did not meet in the morning; the generals had to gather troops on the battlefield according to the agreed time and place.
The Han Wang Army had a total force of about 300,000, and the main force was divided into four armies: the front army, the central army, the left wing and the right wing. Each army had about 70,000 infantry and cavalry. Together with the total cavalry commanded by Ping An, it was composed of five armies in total.
These days, the generals of the Central Army have long discussed tactics repeatedly and decided on the ideas and strategies of combat. Next, they can only rely on the generals of the various army to spontaneously cooperate with each other.
Because without the technology of telephone and telegram, no general can specifically command such a broad battlefield!
The army directly commanded by Zhu Gaoxu was not the central army, but the right-wing army; it was located to the east of the entire formation.
The sun has not risen yet, but the whole sky is bright, with a little mist in the early morning, and the first bright sky is faintly blue.
Prince, countless enemy troops are heading south!Report!Hundreds of enemy scouts cavalry scattered three miles away... The people around Zhu Gaoxu were busy, with noise around him, and the sound of drums and horns were mixed in.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and saw the big flag with the Chinese characters floating slightly to the right rear.
The northwest wind is somewhat unfavorable to the Han Wang Army located on the south side, and mainly affects arrows and musket lead bullets.
But the breeze blowing on the face was almost impossible to detect, but fortunately the wind was very small today.
Looking at the color of the sky, today should be a sunny day.
The generals of the right-wing army had gathered one after another, and Zhu Gaoxu was busy returning the gifts.
drive!He simply shouted, slapped his horse and headed towards the main road, and the cavalry followed him one after another.The flags of the central army were like clouds, and the hooves roared.
Outside the village, people, horses and vehicles were everywhere in the mist.
Every road was occupied by infantry and cavalry queues, and the places without road were all armies walking in line, and the fields were trampled into a mess.
Zhu Gaoxu felt that he did not have the awareness of Cao Cao. In order to set up a large army, the central army did not have any military orders to trample crops; even some villages in the north without walls and defensive value had been burned long ago!
A cavalry was advancing along the road, dust and mist mixed together, and countless horse hooves seemed to be stepping on the clouds.
On the road, there was a chastity archway built by the government to commend local women and build a chastity archway. It was already very old, and countless cavalrymen were rushing under the archway.
Oh... Someone in the horse team shouted in a long and breathtaking voice, and the tone of the sound was as if singing, with strange sounds.
It sounded like a reminder of the sound of the trumpet on the Sichuan pier.
Zhu Gaoxu looked up at the flag and it was indeed a cavalry from Sichuan military.
As soon as the long tone fell, the cavalry shouted in unison: Huh!The momentum is very majestic against the roar of horse hooves.
The shouting continued to sing, but every time everyone shouted in unison, there was another shout: Ha!
Zhu Gaoxu looked back and pointed to the banner of Ping An in the east and said: If the right-wing army has military information, it will be called Ping An’s decision for the time being!
All the generals replied: Get the order!
drive!Zhu Gaoxu rushed out of the central army's cavalry, and a group of personal soldiers immediately turned and chased after him.
Zhu Gaoxu felt that he had great prestige in the army.
From the Jingnan Battle to the various battles against rebellion in Yunnan, the battle to expedition in Annan, and countless battles in the war to fight against crime, his impression in the hearts of the soldiers was obtained through hundreds of real swords and guns!
He ran westward from the gap between the various troops, and the Chinese-character flag floated on the horses.Sure enough, within a while, the crowds on all sides shouted: King of Han!King of Han...
Zhu Gaoxu shouted loudly: Brothers, I, Zhu Gaoxu, will be rewarded after the war!
There were shouts of shouts from far and near the earth.At this time, a general shouted: Brothers all support the King of Han!
The crowd over there quickly shouted: King Han is our king...
Zhu Gaoxu ran westward and shouted from time to time, mostly for the words that promised the soldiers' benefits.
The army was full of momentum and its morale was not low; the duration of the field battle was usually very short, and its morale was not easily eroded.
Looking all the way, the situation of the Han Wangjun was pretty good.
Although the scene on the earth is very grand, the troops everywhere are in sequence. From east to west, the five armies are arranged in sequence: the horse army of the Ping'an tribe, the right wing of the Zhu Gaoxu tribe, the central army of Shengyong tribe, the front army of Quneng tribe, and the left wing of Zhao Ping's tribe.
In the rolling wilderness, on the hillside, and on the road, countless flags were waving, people were heads and iron helmets were surging, and swords, guns, firearms and weapons were like forests; the heads were invisible on both sides of the army, and the world seemed to be filled with troops and horses!
The mountains and forests were filled with smoke from the embers in several villages. Before the war began, there was a little smell of war in advance.
My King of Han, today we fight side by side with our brothers, to let our brothers and the people of the world live a good life... Zhu Gaoxu shouted, "All those who have made meritorious service will be rewarded!"
People on all sides were in high spirits, and the noise was shaking the sky and shouting.A general shouted: Brothers, it’s time to be appointed as a marquis and ministers!
Will win... Will win... Will win!Win!
The sky was getting brighter and the mist was dissipating, and even the white frost on the dead leaves on the roadside was clearly visible.The battlefield I chose before was not far from the military camps, but it was getting closer and closer.
The Han Wang Army's garrison was within a radius of dozens of miles, and there were not many people. Hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed here for many days, and there was news that the official army was heading south. All the people who could escape were running away now!
