Chapter 182: Kill the bandit Dahu!
Gao Gong, with Qi Jiguang and the 3,000 reinforcements he had ordered, were on their way to the Chaobai River defense line. They did not pause at all along the way and were constantly marching.
But even so, the anxious look on the high-arched face did not ease at all.
Too slow, really too slow.
If we march at this speed, it will be already afternoon by the time we reach the Chaobai River.
But Gao Gong was helpless. He couldn't run all these people to death, and his current speed was already the limit of these people, and he couldn't go any faster.
Qi Jiguang also insisted on running behind the high-arched horses. Qi Jiguang suggested: "Shidu, we can divide our troops and go. Now we only have 300 horses here. We can let these 300 horses Form a separate cavalry unit to reinforce the Chaobai River front line first, while the remaining infantry will continue to march at the current speed."
After a brief exchange at the beginning, Qi Jiguang also knew Gao Gong's identity, and he was not. The civil servants who came from the Ministry of War were not the distinguished military generals of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, but the bachelor's degree students of the Hanlin Academy.
So while Qi Jiguang was surprised by Gao Gong's identity, he also changed his title, replacing "General" with "Shidu".
Gao Gong heard Qi Jiguang's suggestion. He looked down at the Shandong young man named Qi Jiguang, and felt inexplicably stable and trustful in his heart. Compared with the gang in the Ministry of War, this little guy was indifferent and only considered his own interests and interests. There is a significant difference between the corrupt people who wear official hats.
Gao Gong said: "Okay, I can follow your suggestion. I will lead the three hundred cavalry, and you will lead the remaining infantry."
Qi Jiguang heard that Gao Gong actually wanted to lead the three hundred cavalry first. , and was immediately startled. Although Gao Gong was also a tall man with a straightforward temper, he was after all just a Hanlin literati who did not understand military strategy. He may have read many books and some classic records of ancient wars. .
But the actual leading of troops is completely different from what appears in the book. It is impossible to understand the essence and come up with your own fighting styles and routines as soon as you get started.
If there is such a person, then such a person is also an unparalleled general.
But would such a person have a high profile?
Obviously, Qi Jiguang didn't quite believe that Gao Gong was such a person.
As a person who understands the art of war and strategy, Qi Jiguang may not be as good as Gao Gong as an official, but when it comes to leading troops in war, he is confident that he can still surpass this courageous Hanlin bachelor.
Qi Jiguang said: "Your Majesty, I know a little about the art of war. I am hereditary commanding officer. I also passed the martial arts examination when I was in my hometown. I'd better take these three hundred cavalry to reinforce the front line."< br>
Gao Gong glanced at Qi Jiguang in surprise. He never expected that the young man who took the initiative to fight was actually a martial artist and had a hereditary command. He really underestimated a hero.
Gao Gong is not a hypocritical person. Although he is determined to lead the charge, he is also aware of his shortcomings. He is actually not suitable for leading troops.
So Gao Gong also said seriously to Qi Jiguang: "Okay, I believe you!"
With such a simple sentence, Gao Gong gave his trust to Qi Jiguang and let Qi Jiguang lead the new people. The three hundred cavalrymen in the group broke away from the team and rushed towards the front line of Chaobai River.
Gao Gong did not leave a single horse behind, and ran on foot with the remaining 2,700 infantrymen, heading towards the Chaobai River front line. And his action suddenly boosted everyone's morale, so that these soldiers who were called out no longer felt that they were going to die.
So at this moment, the soldiers led by Gao Gong also completed a spiritual transformation. Both their pace and spirit became decisive and resolute. With such A little bit of an elite look.
Such an intense march was indeed a big challenge for Gao Gong, a noble Hanlin, but Gao Gong gritted his teeth and persevered.
And the reason why he was able to persevere is because Gao Gong once had the experience of ten years of hard study. These ten years of hard study were also the most tiring and tempering moments, whether it was hot summer or winter, whether it was Even when it was windy or rainy, he never relaxed even for a moment, so this experience also made his body stronger than ordinary people. Moreover, after serving in the capital for so many years, Gao Gong, as a capital official, did not actually have a leisurely life. He had to do the math at the Hanlin Academy on time every day. His persistence over time also made Gao Gong's perseverance far beyond ordinary people. people.
So although his journey was difficult, it was still within the tolerance of his body. Otherwise, Gao Gong would definitely die on the way.
At the moment when Gao Gong was rushing towards the Chaobai River.
Zhu Zaijing finally raised the long sword in his hand, let go of his horse speed, and formed a line with the six thousand cavalry behind him that was no weaker than the torrent of steel rushing in the Chaobai River, rushing with morale like a rainbow. The already panicked Tatar army rushed in from the side.
When Zhu Zaijing's unparalleled cavalry appeared, the Tatar army, whose morale was already shaky, suddenly collapsed. The shock and fear they suffered at this moment were beyond imagination, and they no longer had the arrogance they had before. Arrogance, and the arrogance and arrogance that he had before on the grassland and on the front lines of Xuanda University.
At this moment they were like frightened sheep, just trying to escape.
An Da, who was in the rear army, saw the Ming cavalry coming straight towards him. At this moment, his sky seemed to turn gray all of a sudden.
Ida shouted at the top of his lungs: "Quick! Quick! Charge and kill the Ming cavalry!"
But how could the Tatar soldiers who had lost their morale still obey orders at this time? ?
All they have left now is the instinct to escape.
Even though their numbers far exceeded the incoming Ming army, at this moment, they were still afraid and did not dare to have any intention of fighting anymore.
Zhu Zaijing rushed into the crowd, wielding a long knife to chop down the Tatar bandits in front of him indiscriminately, like a messenger of death from hell. Just as ruthless and will only harvest lives!
Zhu Zaijing looked at the panicked Tatar army and laughed wildly. The preparations he had accumulated for so many days finally worked at this moment.
Morale is indeed a mysterious existence. There is a huge difference between soldiers with morale and soldiers without morale.
No wonder there is such a term as "defeated like a mountain", and no wonder there are stories about a few people holding guns who can easily massacre hundreds or even thousands of people.
It turns out that this is the effect of morale. People and soldiers without morale, no matter how strong they are, are just cattle to be slaughtered.
Zhu Zaijing raised his head and looked at Anda Dajun in the distance, and he became excited instantly, "The bandit Dajun is over there, let's rush over and catch their leader!"
After hearing Zhu Zaijing's order, the personal guards around Zhu Zaijing also shouted in unison: "Charge and kill the bandits!"
The killing sound that resounded through the sky spread all over the place at once. The entire team, even the Tatar soldiers who heard the sound, couldn't help but become afraid.
Although they could not understand Chinese, they could still feel the fierce and unparalleled murderous intent, so at this moment their panic expression was even more difficult to conceal, and they were all trying desperately to turn their horses' heads towards the north. go.
At this moment, they are homesick.
