Daming pirates

Of course, these important officials in the court had the same idea as Chongzhen, thinking that this was the best time to get rid of Jiannu or Yu Xiaotian. Whether Jiannu defeated Yu Xiaotian or Yu Xiaotian defeated Jiannu, for the Ming Dynasty

In other words, one of his pet peeves has been eliminated, so there is no need to worry about him at all.

On the contrary, some ministers suggested that taking this opportunity, even if they could not raise troops to conquer Yu Xiaotian at this juncture, they could immediately raise troops to attack him after the decisive battle between Jiannu's army and Yu's army.

It would be good if Jiannu defeated Yu Jiajun this time, but once Yu Jiajun defeated Jiannu, this beast would definitely become the biggest scourge of the Ming Dynasty, and it must be cut off as soon as possible.

Therefore, if the Yu Jiajun wins this battle with Jiannu, the imperial court will no longer be able to sit back and watch. It must mobilize heavy troops as soon as possible, taking advantage of the fact that Yu Jiajun is in a weak state after the fierce battle with Jiannu.

The Yu family's army sought to destroy them.

Chongzhen was deeply convinced of this, so he naturally followed the good example and ordered his ministers to go down and make arrangements quietly. If the Yu family army won this time, no matter what the price, he must destroy the Yu family army in Tianjin Guard as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Yu Xiaotian seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. Every day he sent people to the capital to report to him, urging the court to quickly allocate food and salary to him. In addition, he publicly requested the court to mobilize officers and soldiers to cooperate with him in annihilating these slave-building armies.

.

He even went so far as to report to the capital twice a day, as if the Yu family army had really run out of ammunition and food. Moreover, it seemed that he wanted to let everyone in the world know about this kind of thing. Often, as soon as the messengers he sent to the capital arrived,

The news will be spread among the people in the capital, and everyone who made the noise will immediately know about it.

When the people heard this, they didn't know what was going on. They thought that something was wrong with the imperial court! The Yu family's army came all the way here to exterminate slaves for the Ming Dynasty. Now that food and salary have been cut off, the court should allocate food and salary to them, but why did they turn a blind eye?

, let people come to remind you every day?

In the six months since Jiannu entered the Pass, the Yu Jiajun has won a great victory. Even if the court is in difficulty now, it cannot treat these soldiers badly!

Therefore, there was a lot of discussion among the people, thinking that what the imperial court did was simply too disheartening to the soldiers and generals of the Yu family.

At this time, news came to the capital that the slave chief Dorgon had led an army to Tianjin Guard, where Tianjin Guard and Yu Jiajun fought fiercely for several days. The fighting was extremely fierce, and the voices on the battlefield could be heard dozens of miles away.

The roar of cannons and the sound of firecrackers as dense as a rainstorm.

As if Yu Xiaotian wanted to deliberately disgust the imperial court, he would send people to report yesterday's battle situation to the capital every day, and he would always achieve victory and kill many slaves. Almost every day, more than a thousand slaves were annihilated by the Yu family's army.

Moreover, Yu Xiao was clamoring every day that he was running out of food for his troops and that he was about to run out of ammunition and food. He asked the court to send reinforcements as soon as possible, and to quickly allocate him food, salary and ammunition from Tongzhou so that he could continue to lead his army and fight to the death against Jiannu.

Chongzhen was disgusted to death by Yu Xiaotian these days. On the one hand, he had heard about Yu's army's repeated great victories and didn't know what it felt like. He also didn't expect that the Fujian soldiers under Yu Xiaotian were so powerful.

He won many battles, and in Tianjin the guards were able to block the Jiannu's way back north, and won repeated battles, preventing the Jiannu army from advancing even an inch.

The more capable the Yu family's army was in fighting, the more wary he became of Xiaotian. Thinking about how Jiannu could make all the officials and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty as fearful as tigers, after the Jiannu army entered the pass, it was like entering an uninhabited land, with no one able to defeat it.

, but happened to encounter the soldiers and horses under Yu Xiaotian's command, and they were badly beaten. The army of 100,000 slaves was unable to break through the Yu family's army's blockade for several days, and was blocked in Tianjin Guard.

The more Chongzhen thought about it, the more he became afraid. Yu Jiajun was so good at fighting. If Yu Xiaotian really had ulterior motives and intended to rebel, who else in the world could restrain him?

So he quickly issued an order and sent people to Shaanxi to convey the order to Hong Chengchou, ordering Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting to quickly lead the elite Shaanxi army into the defense. As for the Qing Dynasty and the suppression of the refugee army, he no longer had to worry about so much. Yu Xiaotian

If it is not cured, he will not be able to sleep peacefully. Now Yu Xiaotian has led his troops and is stationed in Tianjin Guard, which is only about three hundred miles away from the capital. How can he be reassured? This is simply like having a head lying on the side of the bed.

The tiger could kill him in a minute!

After Yu Xiaotian made an agreement with Dorgon about the decisive battle in three days, he began to mobilize the Yu family army for the decisive battle. He personally summoned the lieutenant and above officers from various army departments who were going north this time, and personally gave them a lecture.

, requiring all ministries to take the lead bravely in this battle.

No matter who encounters a fierce attack by the enemy, they would rather fight to the last man than retreat without permission. This battle is related to the life and death of the army, and it is also related to the future of the Chinese nation.

After listening to these officers, they all agreed and secretly warned themselves not to let their guard down at this juncture. This time it was about a life-and-death battle for the family army. If anyone let their guard down at this time, it would be a grave crime of annihilation.

, it is not a problem for one of them to die, but if the war fails because of them, it will involve the lives of countless people. Therefore, these officers have patted their chests and issued military orders, guaranteeing that they will never run away in the face of the battle, and will never retreat, even if the battle comes.

Even if we fight to the last soldier, we will never take a step back.

Yu Xiaotian even said loudly in front of everyone: "Brothers! In this battle, you are not the only one who must take the lead bravely, I, Yu, will never hide behind you and watch on the sidelines! In this decisive battle, I, Yu Xiao,

Tiandang is on the front line personally. If I die in battle, Meng Fei will take over my command. If Meng Fei dies in battle, then the commander of the first brigade Yan Fucheng will take over. If Yan Fucheng dies in battle, the commander of the second brigade Zhang Changjie will take over.

Take over the command, and so on, even if we fight to the last person, we will never take a step back!

Behind us is the sea. This time I led the princes to fight against the slaves, but the court did not give us a grain of food! They even secretly mobilized an army to watch us! They tried to unite with the slaves to overthrow us!

This court is unable to provide peace to the people internally. It can neither enrich the country nor the people, nor can it strengthen the army! Externally, it is unable to resist foreign aggression. It allows slaves to enter the pass and plunder, and ignores the people of the Ming Dynasty. This kind of court is going to come

What's the use?

So don't expect that the Ming army will come to help in the battle. If nothing unexpected happens, when we defeat the Jiannu army, I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty will send heavy troops to surround and kill us.

You must remember that in addition to fighting to the death, you must also find a way to survive. I will take you to remove the immoral and incompetent emperor from his throne!

We have no retreat in this battle. We can only find a way out by moving forward. Even if we die, we must fall forward. Do you remember clearly?"

After listening to Yu Xiaotian's heroic words, a loud roar that shook the sky suddenly sounded outside the Chinese army's tent. Almost all the soldiers and generals of the Yu family were boiling with blood at this time, and they were all scratching their throats.

They raised the weapons in their hands, raised their arms and shouted.

On the first day of March, before dawn, the lights in Yu Jiajun's camp were already brightly lit. The Huotou Army was everywhere in the army, cooking pots and boiling pots of steaming rice.

The fragrant meat porridge was steamed, and the steamed steamed buns with mixed noodles as high as a mountain were prepared, and the bowls and chopsticks were prepared.

Before the fifth watch, a loud wake-up call was blown in the camp. All the soldiers and generals who participated in the battle stood up after hearing the sound, quickly put on their clothes, packed up their equipment, and went to receive a hot breakfast.

They ate in a slurping manner. Everyone had a hearty meal. They were all warm from the food. After leaving the bowls and chopsticks behind, they quickly began to organize the equipment. They carried what should be carried on their backs and loaded into the car.

of loading.

One by one, the horses were led out of the stalls. The grooms had already fed the horses and packed their furs. The cavalry put their saddles on the horses, tightened the girdle, and finally checked and adjusted them.

After adjusting to make the horses more comfortable, they slowly walked around in a circle and gathered them together.

And more draft horses or pack horses and mules, which had already been fed by this time, were led out of the horse pens, moved forward to the front of the artillery carriage or baggage vehicle, and the mules and horses were hitched to the vehicle.

In the whole camp, people were shouting and neighing, and it was very lively, but everyone's face looked quite solemn, because today was the time for them to send out troops to fight Jiannu for a life-or-death showdown. Although they were not afraid in their hearts, they were also

It felt heavy. After today, I don’t know how many brothers may no longer be alive. When everyone saw their good brothers, they whispered to take care of themselves, and then rushed to the assembly point.

Yu Xiaotian also got up early. With the help of his personal guards, he was dressed neatly. A golden Mingguang armor was put on his body. A scarlet woolen cloak was put on his back, and a handle was hung around his waist.

A sword that is exquisitely crafted but never fancy.

When the time came and the sky began to turn pale, Yu Xiaotian turned over and jumped onto his batch of yellow geldings. He shouted in a deep voice: "The whole army is here! Let's go!"

After saying that, the two hundred personal guards, all wearing helmets and armor, each with bright armor, jumped on their horses. Under the leadership of Liu Wang, they protected Yu Xiaotian. They flicked the reins of the horses and stepped lightly.

With a gentle tap on the horse's belly, Yu Xiaotian galloped towards the camp gate, with a cloud of dust rising behind him.

Yu Xiaotian sat upright on the back of his horse, immediately standing on a slope next to the official road, watching groups of capable Yu family soldiers passing in front of him.

A huge scarlet flag made of silk with a huge word "Yu" written on it was fluttering in the wind on the slope. Yu Xiaotian immediately stood under the flag, his tall figure reflected in the morning light, his body

The surrounding area seemed to be coated with a layer of gold, like a god of war, standing upright on the slope.
