My father is Jiajing

Chapter 160 One Hundred Thousand vs Three Thousand The Advantage is in My Hands

After Zhu Zaigui issued the order to redistribute the troops, all the troops in the Qingshuitan camp were allocated according to Zhu Zaigui's order in a very short time.

Looking at the three battalions of troops marching towards the western front of Miyun, Zhu Zaigui finally breathed a sigh of relief. After this step was arranged, the moment of the decisive battle was getting closer and closer.

Zhu Zaigui turned to Teng Xiang beside him and said, "Send someone back to tell Chen Hong and Li Fang to prepare the logistics. At the same time, let them notify all the agents they can contact and ask them to donate enough military rations to cover the army's expenses for ten days within two days."

"Any agent who refuses to give or gives only a little to get rid of the beggars will have their agency qualifications revoked after the war is over, and the Imperial Palace will be informed, and the East Factory will investigate whether they are suspected of collaborating with the enemy. Any agent who donates materials to strongly support the court in resisting the invasion of the Tatar bandits will have their agency qualifications extended to three years, and will be allowed to renew it three times."

After hearing what Zhu Zaigui said, Teng Xiang immediately took the order and sent a confidant to quickly deliver Zhu Zaigui's new order to Shunyi Industrial Park.

Zhu Zaigui issued this order not to bully others, but because the responsibility he now had was too great. Although the Palace Museum and the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War would all be responsible for some of the food and fodder for these people, the news of the Tatar invasion had spread, and many places were stretched to the limit, so the supply of food and fodder was naturally affected.

Therefore, Zhu Zaigui could only suffer for the wealthy, while the blame had to be borne by the palace.

Huang Jin was also listening to Zhu Zaigui's order. He did not show any surprise. When Zhu Zaigui finished speaking, he immediately said, "We also mean this, but there are agents who secretly disobey the imperial court. The East Factory will investigate thoroughly to see if these people have any collusion with the bandits."

Zhu Zaiqi grinned, "Eunuch, you are so righteous!"

Huang Jin replied in a friendly manner: "This is what I should do."

Zhu Zaigui was in a good mood, and he waved his hand and said loudly: "Soldiers, prepare to move out!"

This time, the number of cavalry under Zhu Zaigui has skyrocketed from 2,000 to 5,500. In addition to the more than 2,000 grassland horses seized previously to form the reserve cavalry, Zhu Zaigui now has 7,000 to 8,000 cavalry alone.

The number of these seven or eight thousand cavalrymen was indeed nothing compared to the invading Tatar cavalry, but Zhu Zaigui had no intention of engaging in a head-on heroic fight with the Tatar cavalry.

Zhu Zaigui was well aware that throughout history, except for very few exceptions, all the battles in which the few defeated the many were achieved by concentrating superior forces to break the enemy's weak points.

If we ignore the huge gap between the enemy and us and go into battle head-on with an enemy whose number exceeds our own by several times, unless we have the ability of a great magician who can summon meteorites, we will be fools who will end up in a miserable way!
Judging from Zhu Zaigui's current performance, it is obvious that he is not such a fool. He is very good at using his advantages to fight mobile warfare and firepower warfare.

After a night of harassment last night, Zhu Zaigui concluded that the Tatar bandits in Shixiaying must have become furious and would come out in full force to wipe out this hateful cavalry that had refused to take direct command.

Therefore, in order to avoid risks and avoid a clash with the angry Tatar bandits, Zhu Zaigui decided to abandon the Qingshuitan camp and prepare to play a trick!
Zhu Zaigui gave the order: "Leave Qingshuiying camp immediately and take away all the food and weapons in the camp. Don't move the rest. Leave a small team of 500 people in the camp to set up straw men to attract the enemy into the camp, and bury explosives in the camp, waiting for the bandits to attack."

After hearing Zhu Zaigui's new order, the cavalry in the camp formed a team and mounted their horses. Then, under the leadership of Zhu Zaigui, they left the Qingshuitan camp and took a detour to a place that the Tatar bandits would never dream of.

The remaining 500-man team in the camp followed Zhu Zaigui's orders and immediately began to set up rows of lifelike straw men and lay mines in the camp. After all the explosives in the camp were buried, the team evacuated the camp according to the established plan.

After a night of harassment at the Shixiaying Tatar camp, Anda was furious. He had never fought such a frustrating battle. In the past, they used the advantage of cavalry to chase the Ming army, but this time, when they led a 200,000-strong grassland cavalry into the suburbs of the Ming capital to prepare for a big rob, they were hit several times by the Ming army.

What’s even more hateful is that his son Zamusu didn’t return to the camp safely. How could Alanda not be angry?
It would be strange if one could endure such a great humiliation.
What's more, he still has the advantage in military strength, so revenge is imperative.

So early in the morning, when everything had settled down and there was no time for the Ming army to harass again, Anda immediately summoned all the tribal generals and chiefs who were accompanying the army in the camp to hold a meeting in his tent.

Anda's face was as gloomy as water. Looking at the generals and chiefs in the camp who were all covered in dust, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.

"I swear to take revenge! This hateful Ming army has repeatedly provoked me. Do they really think I am a sheep on the grassland? Send my order to all the cavalry in the camp to rush straight to the camp of the Ming cavalry and build a Jingguan on their heads! I want to see whether this Ming cavalry of less than 3,000 people has super powers!"

Anda was also furious. No matter what, he had the advantage over the Ming cavalry of less than 3,000 with his own army of 100,000!

Anda gave an order, and everyone in the Shixia Camp, except for the team responsible for logistics and the wounded from the previous battle, mounted their horses and followed Anda out in full force.

This time they are going to use their absolute strength to defeat the Ming army that challenged their majesty, and let this Ming army see who is the real king of the battlefield!

After Zhu Zaigui left the camp, he looked back at the cavalry he was leading, numbering more than 5,000 people, and felt that the marching noise was a bit too loud, which was not conducive to his battle plan.

Zhu Zaigui then stopped the troops and ordered: "Everyone dismount and wrap the horses' hooves with thick cloth to prevent the army's tracks from being exposed. This time we are going to give the Tatar bandits a big surprise, and no accidents can happen during this period."

As soon as Zhu Zaigui gave the order, all the cavalrymen dismounted and wrapped the hooves of their horses with thick cloth. Those who did not have cloth cut off a piece of their robes and wrapped it on the horse's hooves.

After everyone had wrapped their horses' hooves, when the army started moving again, the noise was indeed much quieter, and it was not so easy to expose the army's marching tracks.

Zhu Zaigui listened to the current movements of the army and couldn't help but smile with a sense of confidence.

This time, I had the advantage without any intention!
