From Pingrongyi to Xiningwei, a horse Pingchuan, only when you are about to arrive at Xining City, there is a very short piece of mountainous land.He Jin's troops did not encounter any more Ming troops along the way, indicating that the intelligence of the sentry was accurate, and Wang Shuo no longer had mobile forces to send out to block the attack.In the early morning, when the sky was dark, He Jin ordered to bury the pot and make rice, and then the army advanced westward along the Huangshui road, arriving at the city of Xining.Wang Shuo has already formed a large array under the city, and is ready for the battle.Under the city of Xining, from east to west, a horse flat river, Huangshui flows at the foot of the mountain on the north side, the flat land is seven or eight miles wide, enough for the two armies to fight.As soon as the Shun army came out of the pass, the Ming army rushed over, caught He Jin off guard, and had to transfer the cavalry, disperse the chasing Ming army, and open up the open space.Taking advantage of this opportunity, the archers of the Shun army lined up, released arrows at the Ming army, stabilized the position, and the army slowly rushed out of the pass and formed a military formation.The two armies repeatedly rushed and killed, and the cavalry of the Shun army suffered a lot of damage.The Ming army did not move too forward, and when they saw the Dashun cavalry, they immediately began to retreat, and the archers released arrows while retreating, blocking the advance of the enemy's cavalry, and finally withdrew to the military formation and combined with the large array.He Jin stood on the slope of the pass, and when he saw that the Ming army was advancing and retreating, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.This is the most disciplined Ming army he has ever seen.In the past, the Ming army was mostly literati commanding military generals, and the arrangement of troops was all based on the imagination of those generals who were born as scholars, or the way of moving from what military books and war strategies were basically impractical, and often affected the overall situation, and the whole army was defeated at one breakthrough.Looking at the Ming army under the city of Xining, more than a dozen phalanxes, extending from the flat ground to the slopes on both sides, take care of each other, do not move at all, have no weaknesses, and are majestic and clean.Although the Ming army seemed to be about 40,000 or 50,000 people, which was obviously less than his soldiers, he did not dare to be careless and did not launch an attack on the whole front, but only sent a large array of 10,000 people to carry out a tentative attack to find the weakness of the Ming army.As a phalanx of the Great Shun Army moved forward, the Ming Army also moved, and the same 10,000-person phalanx slowly moved out of the queue and greeted the 10,000-person team of the Shun Army.As the two sides drew closer, the archers began to shoot at each other.The arrows covered the sky and the sun, and the shields of the two sides were raised high like clouds in the large array, but there were still people who were hit by arrows and fell, howling miserably.When the army was over, the stretcher team and ambulance soldiers quickly ran out of the rear of the Ming army, and the wounded soldiers lying in place were supported or carried on stretchers and withdrawn to the city for treatment.The wounded soldiers of the Dashun army were lying there wailing, and no one cared.All the soldiers on the battlefield, the Dashun army and the Ming army, saw this scene.The Dashun army couldn't help but feel cold, while the morale of the Da Ming army was boosted, and some people were treated for injuries, even if they were killed in battle, and there were also people who took care of their little fathers and elders.Around the waist of each of them is a waist tag made of hardwood, which is engraved with their name, place of origin and the number of the unit to which they belong.If they are killed in battle, someone will take away the waist card and register, their families will be protected and helped, and their bodies will also be transported back to their hometown for burial.Their general personally promised everyone that he would not give up any soldier who fought desperately for the new Ming government, and would not abandon the body of any fallen soldier.Regardless of whether the war was won or lost, after the war, there would be people who would search for the lost soldiers and their remains, and transport them back to their hometowns for burial, so that future generations will always remember their exploits.Fighting for such a general and dying to defend their vital interests is their belief that the two large arrays of 10,000 people finally collided together, and the middle battlefield between the two armies was dusty, with gold and iron resonating, blades penetrating into flesh, and the sound of killing shook the sky.The Ming army was in groups of three, one with a shield and a short knife, specializing in defense, and the other two with spears, assassinating the Shun army that had already shot with a blade and had no time to take it back.If a group of soldiers is damaged, they will immediately combine with the surrounding three-person teams that have also been damaged, and form a new three-person team to continue the battle, chaotic and orderly.Although the Shun army was brave, most of them fought on their own, and there were more casualties.The battle lasted for more than an hour, and the Shun army was originally trying to attack, and seeing that it could not make a profit, it began to retreat.Seeing that the Shun army began to retreat, the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted and they fought back desperately.The Shun army accelerated its retreat, and soon formed a formation, scrambling to flee desperately towards its own large array.The Ming army pursued until the Shun army was a stone's throw away, and then began to slowly retreat.When retreating, the Ming soldiers helped the ambulance team to lift their comrades, and even the wounded soldiers of the Shun army who said they had surrendered were also carried back by them.He Jin was stunned when he looked at the pass, and for the first time his face lost confidence and showed panic.This is obviously not any army he has encountered in the past, this is a strong force that is many times stronger than the Ming army, Wang Shuo is not simple, at noon, under the blue sky, the battlefield is silent.He Jin did not attack again, but led more than 1,000 people from his own guards to slowly walk down the hillside at the pass, through the black and oppressive formation of the Dashun army, and walked towards the battlefield.He wanted to talk to Wang Shuo, and he underestimated Wang Shuo.This person not only knows how to govern the place, but also knows the art of war, has the style of a general, and his skills are not under him.If Wang Shuo is willing to lead the army to Shun Dashun, King Chuang will be like a tiger with wings, and in the future, Wang Shuo can completely become a generation of famous generals like Han Xin
