My Pen Pal Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 122 Tie a Big Pocket
"Who's talking?"

Halba looked at Li Wenzhong in astonishment, his eyes full of horror.

In the military tent, apart from him, the prisoner, there were only Mao Xiang, Xu Da and Li Wenzhong. Apart from them, there was no other figure!
Who made that mysterious voice?
Suddenly, Halba felt a gust of cold wind blowing behind his neck, and he shivered.

The fear in his heart made him unable to help but shout hysterically: "It's witchcraft, you despicable Han people, you are using evil witchcraft, you will surely attract the endless wrath of Changshengtian, and the punishment from heaven will descend upon you like a storm!"

Mao Xiang looked at Halba with contempt, his nostrils almost pointing to the sky, and snorted coldly.

"Humph, Yuan Tartar, you have never seen the world!"

After arriving in Daning, Xu Da sent out scouts to conduct reconnaissance. With the help of radio transmitters and telescopes, the reconnaissance range was expanded to more than 200 miles, and several relay points were set up between the reconnaissance point and Daning.

Therefore, the scouts at the forefront could pass on the military intelligence to Daning as soon as they discovered the traces of the Yuan army.

Mao Xiang naturally knew about radio handheld stations. He used them frequently when he led the Jinyiwei in the desert and southern Liaoning and worked with the border troops at night to spy on the movements of the Yuan court and Goryeo.

Li Wenzhong ignored Halba and said to Xu Da in confusion:

"Nahachi's army of 200,000 soldiers has been annihilated, 30,000 of them have been killed. How come 350,000 soldiers are coming now?"

"Could it be that Goryeo troops have infiltrated?" Xu Da touched his nose and speculated.

"Goryeo doesn't have that many soldiers and horses."

Mao Xiang, who had been dealing with the Koreans in southern Liaoning for half a year, said:
"If you add up the six guards and two armies of Goryeo, there are only 200,000 troops at most. It is impossible for them to send most of them to join the Yuan army at once.

Besides, Lee In-im and King Sin-ho of Goryeo cannot mobilize all the troops. As far as I know, at least the Divine Tiger Guard and the Heungmyeong Guard of the Six Guards are controlled by Lee Seong-gye!"

At this moment, Halba suddenly yelled like crazy: "You are scared, hahahaha, you cowardly Han people, shameless traitors, our Mongolian swords will chop off your heads, and the iron hooves of our Yuan Dynasty soldiers will trample you into meat paste like a storm!"

"Noisy!"

Mao Xiang picked up a bramble and hit Halba's mouth and nose hard. Instantly, Halba felt his nose stuffy and stars appeared in his eyes. Then there was a sharp pain in his brain and blood gushed out!
"If an enemy comes, we will fight him. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Since Nahachu has come to us, we don't need to be polite. We can wait for him to tire himself out. Two days is enough time for us to make full preparations!"

Xu Da pondered for a moment, "Outside Daning City, there is only one main road in the northeast leading to Long'an. To the north of the main road is Qilaotu Mountain, and to the south is Laoha River and Yanshan Great Wall. There is a narrow pass between Qilaotu Mountain and Yanshan Mountain. This place can be used as an ambush!
Our army's surprise attack on Daning was too fierce and sudden. Nahachu didn't know that Daning had been recaptured by our army at that time, so we were able to catch him off guard.

Oh, doesn’t Nahachu have more soldiers? I want to see whether he has more men or we have more bullets! "

Li Wenzhong was immediately excited and said: "The commander is right. Our army can use the pass as the first ambush checkpoint, and then set up defense lines extending all the way to the wall of Daning. After most of the Yuan army enters the pass, we can strike hard at the Yuan army at lightning speed and cut it off in half!
The Laoha River is turbulent. If the Yuan army does not want to be driven into the river, they can only abandon the cumbersome artillery battalion and use the cavalry to charge forward desperately. In this way, the Yuan army will only be in disarray! "

Li Wenzhong said, his eyes gleaming with brilliance, "We can also prepare a surprise force in advance, let Tang He lead the cavalry to ambush outside the pass, and wait for the Yuan army to be disjointed, and then rush out with thunderous force, and we will definitely be able to wipe out the Yuan army completely!"

Li Wenzhong's vision was always unique, and he was good at using surprising tactics, so Xu Da quickly adopted his strategy. "We will set up a big trap at this pass, and wait for Nahachu to rush in!"

After saying this, he and Xu Da looked at each other and laughed heartily.

"You cowards and shameless people, you only dare to use such despicable tricks? Do you dare to have a fair fight with the Mongolian warriors?"

To Xu Da and the others, Halba's shouting was just the last bit of impotent rage.

"This fool!"

Mao Xiang laughed at him for a while, and then asked Xu Da, "My Lord, we have already grasped the movements of Nahachu's army. How should we deal with this Halba?"

Xu Da waved his hand and said casually: "Commander Mao, please do as you please. It's just that he just heard a lot of things he shouldn't have heard. I think you should know what to do."

Mao Xiang burst into laughter and said, "Don't worry, my lord. I know how to deal with this beast!"

Xu Da turned around and took Li Wenzhong out of the military tent, and suddenly Halba's shrill screams were heard behind them.

The two of them didn't care at all about the life or death of a Mongolian commander.

When they invaded southwards and burned, killed and looted in the territory of Ming Dynasty, they should have thought that this would be their fate!

The war was about to begin, and there were still countless preparations to be made. In Xu Da's tent, military orders were issued one after another, and the Ming army soldiers immediately became busy in an orderly manner.

Some details still need to be finalized to ensure that nothing is missed. For example, Tang He's cavalry will only fight with the blocked Yuan army outside the pass, so as to avoid friendly bullets from injuring the Ming cavalry.

Following Xu Da's orders, the soldiers arranged several firing lines according to the organization of the musket battalion, based on maximizing the continuity of firepower.

At the same time, taking into account the difference in range between needle-fired rifles and artillery, an artillery firing line was set up behind the musket battalion.

In this way, there are different firepower configurations from near to far, which not only ensures the rapidity of firepower, but also ensures continuous firepower output!
At the same time, under Li Wenzhong's order, Zhu Di and Xu Huizu led the sniper battalion to find the best ambush locations in Yanshan and Qilaotu Mountain respectively.

Having made all the necessary preparations, all the Ming army soldiers were a little nervous, but more excited, waiting for the Mongolian army led by Nahachu to rush in!
At this time, about 30 miles northeast of Daning, Nahachu was leading a coalition force of 350,000 Mongolians and Goryeo people and marching towards Daning in a mighty manner.

Nahachu rode on a war horse and walked in the center of the army, with an arrogant and domineering look on his face!
It was completely expected that Batu and Wujir would capture Daning. How could the weak and despicable Han people be a match for the Mongolian warriors?
Besides, Batu was the bravest warrior under his command and extremely brave in battle, while Wuri was calm and collected, well-versed in Han Chinese military tactics, and was also a rare strategist under his command!
With these two people as vanguards, are we still afraid that the Ming army will not be defeated?
At this time, the two men should be in Daning City, preparing good wine and meat, as well as the fair-skinned Han woman, to welcome his arrival, right?
