Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

Tahamu led a thousand Tatar cavalrymen south and passed the Great Wall almost without any obstruction.

Relying on the spies who had been arranged in the northern border long ago, they clearly found out the direction in which Ye Chen led his army south, and he led his troops at a rapid pace all the way.

And on the way back to Youzhou and Liaodong.

At dusk, the Zhen family caravan found a place to camp.

After the experience of Ye Chen's army raiding the camp last time, Zhen Shao strictly ordered the three hundred soldiers to camp around the camp and be on guard at all times.

They even sent people out as scouts.

So, when it was completely dark, Zhen Shao received the news that the Tatar cavalry was charging.

Zhen Shao panicked and quickly gathered his soldiers to try to resist.

In the dark and in the fire.

Zhen Shao only heard a burst of exciting horse hooves, and the shouts of killing did not last long.

The Zhen family's soldiers had already been defeated.

"Hold on! Hold on!"

"As long as you can hold on, you will be rewarded with a million gold coins!"

Zhen Shao looked at the retreating family soldiers and shouted loudly.

But his voice seemed extremely weak in the chaotic battlefield.

Then, he looked at the Tatar cavalry coming like a tide, and his heart was filled with despair.

But at this moment.

Just behind the camp, the sound of orderly footsteps suddenly came.

Zhen Shao was slightly stunned, and a family soldier rushed to his side.

"Master, the Imperial Guards are coming. They are coming from behind. Lord Ye is telling the Master to quickly take his family and retreat behind the Imperial Guards!"

"what?"

Zhen Shao was slightly stunned, then reacted.

"Someone, retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Zhen Shao didn't need to repeat himself at all, as the Zhen family's children and servants all rushed towards the rear like a gust of wind.

However, when they arrived in front of the Imperial Guards, they found that the Imperial Guards had raised their weapons and pointed them at them.

"Spread out! Go around from both sides!"

"Anyone who dares to stand in the way of the army will be killed without mercy!"

A guard shouted loudly.

The Zhen family had no choice but to disperse in panic.

Among the ten thousand troops, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally caught up.

More than ten thousand soldiers quickly formed their battle formations, all in high spirits.

They were not afraid of the charging Tatar cavalry.

Shield forward, spear behind.

"Bang!"

The Tatar cavalry rushed towards the infantry phalanx like a hurricane.

The infantry phalanx retreated slightly, but still managed to hold off the attack.

"Fire arrows!"

Ye Chen gave an order.

Suddenly arrows rained down.

A large number of Tatar cavalry were caught off guard by the sudden rain of arrows and fell off their horses one after another.

They then retreated and tried to shoot arrows from horseback, but the crossbows of Ye Chen's soldiers had a longer range than theirs.

After a shootout, the Tatar soldiers suffered even more casualties.

Tahamu looked at the situation in front of him and felt unwilling.

"Where did all these soldiers come from?"

Tahamu was very surprised. With the northern border military formation map given to him by Yang Dechang, he had clearly avoided all the camps where Dayu's army was stationed.

At this time, Ye Chen was already commanding 10,000 elite soldiers and advancing continuously.

Tahamu did not dare to fight anymore and could only retreat with the remaining cavalry.

But I want to wait until daytime to see the situation clearly before making a decision.

Unexpectedly, behind him, there was another burst of fierce horse hoofbeats.

Tahamu turned around and looked back in surprise.

But unexpectedly, torches had already stood up in the darkness.

The burning torches formed a long dragon.

A group of light cavalrymen without armor suddenly appeared behind the Tatar cavalry.

Attack from both sides!

Tahamu immediately realized that something was wrong.

At the last moment, he drew out his scimitar with his only remaining hand and rushed towards the infantry phalanxes in front with a roar.

He would try to break through the infantry phalanx in front of him at the last moment.

Under the desperate protection of his personal guards, he actually rushed into the infantry phalanx.

He swung his sword bravely.

Keep moving forward.

Until finally, he was forced to retreat and left with his only two remaining personal soldiers.

Zhen Shao was shocked and relieved as he watched the Tatar cavalry retreat.

He felt that he had survived a disaster, but he also felt that he had underestimated Ye Chen.

This time he saw Ye Chen leading his troops to fight with his own eyes, and he felt that Ye Chen's command was well-measured and the soldiers were extremely brave.

Among the Zhen family, Zhen Jiaoxue stood in the crowd and could not help but look at the army in front of her, the one standing with the banner with the word "General".

Below, a figure riding a horse.

At this moment, she was filled with surprise and admiration, but she only felt that Ye Chen was like a magic needle standing in front of these Tatars.

She suddenly realized that this man was much more powerful than she had imagined.

Zhen Shao ran towards Ye Chen with a face full of gratitude. He bowed deeply and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, thank you for saving my life. If it weren't for you, my Zhen family would be destroyed today."

Hearing this, Ye Chen waved his hand slightly and said calmly: "No need to thank me. The Tatar army has not completely withdrawn yet. You can bring all the children of the Zhen family into the army."

"Good good!"

Zhen Shao nodded repeatedly and immediately went down to make arrangements.

However, at this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the Zhen family members behind the army.

Ye Chen turned his head suddenly and saw, in the light of the torch, three Tatars took the opportunity to rush into the Zhen family and captured several people.

At this moment, Zhen Shao was terrified. He opened his eyes wide and was at a loss.

A hint of anger flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

The Tatar cavalry had already been defeated, but they dared to do such a thing under his nose. What a bastard!

"Come here, prepare fast horses, I want to chase them myself."

Soon, Ye Chen jumped on his horse and led thirty cavalrymen to gallop in the direction of the Tatars' escape.

"Sir, my daughter, my daughter has been taken away!"

Until then.

Zhen Shaocai cried out loudly.

"These Tatars are quite good at catching people?"

Ye Chen snorted coldly, kicked the horse's belly hard, and rushed out like an arrow, while Shen Qiu followed closely beside him.

Stay close.

Tahamu was running very fast at this time. He really didn't want to return empty-handed, so he took the risk of bypassing the infantry phalanx and robbed some women.

In fact, it was dark that day, and the Tatar cavalry had been defeated. It would be difficult for the three cavalrymen to be discovered if they moved quietly.

Tahamu thought he could run away after he succeeded.

But he didn't expect that he would be targeted by dozens of cavalrymen just after he robbed the person.

He didn't even have time to see who he was robbing before he quickly ordered his two personal soldiers to flee.

After running for more than an hour, he still couldn't shake off the pursuers.

Tahamu panicked and had to throw away all the women he had captured.

"Want to run?"

Ye Chen saw that the Tatars in front of him threw away all the women they had robbed.

"Qiu'er, cum for me!"

Ye Chen didn't let Shen Qiu take action because he was worried about hurting the hostages.

At this moment, Shen Qiu suddenly drew his bow and shot two arrows in an instant.

Two Tatars were immediately shot off their horses.

Tahamu fled for his life, but he did not live longer than his Qing soldiers.

Almost the next moment, an arrow hit his head and he fell off his horse.

Ye Chen put down his crossbow and began to check the hostages thrown away by the Tatars.
