My father is Jiajing

Chapter 176 You Are My Real Father (Monthly Ticket Plus)
The dried-up Chaobai River is like a natural trench, but this trench is not as steep and deep as imagined. It lies across the earth like a long and narrow oval tubular bottom.

Apart from the dry riverbed, there are also scattered streams flowing at the bottom, which shows at a glance how difficult this river is during this dry season.

After a day and night of marching, Anda once again mobilized all his forces, leading 70,000 to 80,000 troops from various units and heading straight for the Shunyi Industrial Park on the other side of the Chaobai River.

During this day and night, Anda did not attack Qingshuitan as directly as he did last time. He deliberately controlled the army's marching speed and maintained the combat effectiveness of the entire unit at all times. At the same time, he also carefully sent out the vanguard troops to scout and explore the way ahead to find out what the situation was ahead.

During such a cautious march, Andaya finally discovered the heavy deployment of troops along the Chaobai River. When the news of this deployment was brought back by the vanguard troops in the front, Andaya became more certain that there was indeed an important place behind the river that the Ming people could not let go or move away.

Otherwise, why would they station so many troops here instead of garrisoning them in their capital?
The early morning light finally climbed out of the clouds and shone on the vast earth. The slightly cold autumn wind blew, reminding people that this is the autumn season.

Anda stretched out his hand to feel the temperature in the air and sighed, "If this were on the grassland, it would probably be snowing soon."

The leaders of various tribes and generals of various armies stood aside, each doing their duty with a solemn expression, waiting for Anda's military orders to be issued.

Anda withdrew his hand and looked at everyone again. He said in a deep voice: "Generals, listen to my orders!"

All the leaders and generals, led by Tuotuo, bowed at the same time: "The Khan has ordered."

Anda said: "Order the whole army to rest for half an hour and get enough energy. We will defeat them in one battle and let the Ming Dynasty see how powerful we, the descendants of Genghis Khan, are!"

"Follow the order!"

Everyone shouted in response.

Then Anda called Tuotuo again, "Tuotuo, this time you will be the vanguard and lead 6,000 cavalry to charge the Ming army's defense line to test their strength. You will lead your troops to attack in two quarters of an hour. Don't have any hesitation or concerns. This Khan wants to have a good start this time!"

Tuotuo bowed and said, "Don't worry, Great Khan. I will definitely live up to your expectations. I will definitely fight to the death and destroy the Ming army's defense line. Let the army march straight in and take the Ming Dynasty's treasure house!"

Within the Anda Army, the Shunyi Industrial Park behind the Chaobai River has been called the "treasure house" of the Ming Army. As long as they can take this place, not only will the food and grass problem be alleviated, but they might also be able to snatch away all kinds of rare treasures from this treasure house. They might even be able to snatch the formula of the Ming Dynasty's Yiran sugar and skilled craftsmen. By then, maybe this magical Yiran sugar could also be replicated on the grassland.

When one thinks that such a huge fortune is less than ten miles behind the dry riverbed in front of him, faced with such a great temptation, anyone would be tempted and want to take this treasure house for himself.

Even if Tuotuo was arranged by Alanda to be the vanguard, if he successfully broke through the Ming army's defense line, his troops would be the first to reach the "treasure house".

Therefore, Tuotuo was extremely excited, and he also felt that his luck and strength had always been much better than those of the two unlucky guys, Zamusu and Guruge.

The reason why Tuotuo had such strong confidence was because of the ferocity of his troops. Other troops might suffer heavy losses when fighting in Caogu on the Xuanda line, but he was able to not only defeat the opponent easily every time, but also return with a full load.

Therefore, with the bonus of such a long-term victory, he and his troops had a sharpness and ferocity that ordinary armies did not have.

This is also the reason why Anda took a fancy to him. Anda needed a beautiful start, and Tuotuo was obviously the most suitable sharp blade.

As long as he can play this game well, all the previous failures will be washed away, and in the end, what history will remember will be the story of how he trampled and ravaged the capital of the Ming Dynasty, rather than the story of how he lost his troops and his son.

Huang Jin and Feng Bao were both standing on the other side of the Chaobai River, looking at the dark mass of Tatar bandits in front of them, and they were both nervous and excited. They knew very well that this was the moment of the decisive battle that Prince Yu had been trying to promote. As long as they could make a good start in the first battle, then this decisive battle could be said to be half won.

Therefore, the two of them did not dare to slack off at all and kept a close eye on the movements of the enemy at all times.

Feng Bao said: "Grandpa, please step back. I have my son here to guard the place. There will definitely be no problems."

Feng Bao stood in front of Huang Jin in heavy armor and said this to Huang Jin.

Huang Jin glanced at Feng Bao and chuckled, "Do you think we are used to a life of luxury and have never seen a big scene? The day before yesterday, we followed the commander-in-chief and charged into the enemy camp. We personally chopped off many bandits' heads. Even the commander-in-chief praised us for our bravery. How dare you, a little brat, look down on us?"

Feng Bao quickly replied: "My son doesn't dare. He just thought that there was no one to command the firearms troops, so he boldly thought of asking the ancestor to help watch over them."

Huang Jin chuckled and said, "You should go and watch. You have never killed anyone, so you don't know how dangerous it is. In the first battle, I will go first to help you hold the line. In the second battle, I will drink tea and watch the show in the back to see how you perform."

Huang Jin is a different person from ordinary people. Although he is the eunuch beside Emperor Jiajing and is deeply favored by the emperor, he is not arrogant at all. He treats his subordinates and people close to him with care and handles interpersonal relationships.

It is precisely because of Huang Jin's character that over the years, Huang Jin has been deeply respected and loved by the people below him, making him very popular among people from all levels up. He also helped the increasingly bad-tempered Emperor Jiajing to ease many hidden problems.

It can be said that when Huang Jin said that he was willing to fight for Feng Bao, Feng Bao absolutely believed that Huang Jin was not just talking empty words or being polite, but was sincerely willing to help him withstand the first wave of pressure.

Feng Bao's eyes turned red, and he bowed deeply to Huang Jin, "My son thanks the ancestors."

Huang Jin looked at Feng Bao like this, and laughed again, "Get up, we are not helping you. It's just that the Marshal has issued a death order, if you can't hold on, you can't go back alive. So we are helping you to fight the first battle, but in fact, we are also helping ourselves."

"And you must remember, when the bandits rush across the center of the river, you must attack with the Tiger Crouching Cannon at all costs. As long as you can land a good blow, we will have a chance to charge in with the cavalry and kill them off."

"Otherwise, you can just wait to be buried with us."

Feng Bao bowed again with tears in his eyes and said, "My son will never let our ancestors down!"

Huang Jin's heart softened as he watched Feng Bao cry. He stroked Feng Bao's head and said, "When this battle is over, if you and I are both alive, you can call me godfather. I also need a son who can take care of me in my old age."

After hearing this, Feng Bao burst into tears and bowed deeply to Huang Jin again: "Godfather! From now on, you are my real father!"
