Shu Lu and Han general Guan Zhicheng led two thousand Han troops in the front, while Leng Geli and Asiha led more than 1,100 Jiannu armor soldiers in the rear.
Smoke billowed northward.
These soldiers and horses, including the Han army, were all cavalry, and they also robbed the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
In the past two years, the output of Liaodong's fields has increased greatly, and the strength of Dajin has recovered quickly.
Even the Han army is equipped with mounts.
Of course, their mounts cannot Compared with the Jurchen master's fat and strong war horse, but it is also a war horse, and it no longer has to kick its legs upside down and eat dust behind it as in the past.
After marching less than twenty miles north, Shu Lu sent people to report back, and the Ming army formed a formation in front.
Leng Geli and Asiha urged their horses forward and turned around the foot of a mountain.
There was an open field in front of them.
Leng Geli was shocked when he saw the scene ahead.
A neat square array was in front of us.
The military formation completely cut off the official road.
The armor of the Ming army soldiers shone with metallic light, and the stars on their weapons shone on the earth.
The flags were fluttering proudly, and murderous intent was coming from the sky.
There were hundreds of cavalry on each side, but all the cavalry stood under their horses, completely ignoring the slave-building brigade three miles away.
At the front of the formation were dozens or twenty small cannons, and some Ming soldiers were sitting safely behind them.
"Sir, these soldiers have been arrayed here for more than half an hour."
Shu Lu urged his horse to come closer and report.
At this moment, a faint shout suddenly came from the Ming army formation, and suddenly all the soldiers in the Ming army formation sat down in unison.
Leng Geli, Shu Lu, Asiha and others looked at the Ming army with solemn expressions.
It was not unusual for the soldiers to be well-trained.
Many Ming army generals were good at this.
To use their Jurchen words, they were just good-looking.
They are the fastest runners in battle.
However, they were so calm in the battle, could keep the formation so neat, and at the same time dared to let the soldiers rest when the Jurchen brigade was deployed.
The performance of this Ming army from top to bottom showed that the commander was fearless and the soldiers were well-trained. .
Several people used telescopes to examine the army carefully.
The military formation in front sat down, revealing a small military formation behind it, with an estimated number of three to four hundred people.
The first few people were wearing silver-white full armor and were very conspicuous among the black armor.
The first few people among them were also looking here with telescopes.
He was too far away to see the face of the leader clearly.
However, Leng Geli intuitively believed that the first person with an extremely tall figure and a telescope in his hand was this general.
Zhao Lie used a telescope to carefully examine the enemy on the opposite side.
He had not seen him for two years and found that Jiannu's strength had increased.
First of all, all the troops are ready.
Even the Han army, which has always been of low status, is equipped with pommel and horse.
This is not a small sum of money, but also a big deal from Hou Jin.
Furthermore, the Han army's armors were of various types, including iron armor, Phi armor, and cotton armor, but one thing was that they were all uniform.
In previous battles, many Han troops did not wear armor and were also of the beggar army style.
The Jiannu armored soldiers all had iron armor, although the forms were different.
But it was extremely difficult.
It can only be said that Hou Jin's troops were smaller, but they were all protected by iron armor, which shows that the national power of Hou Jin has greatly increased.
"Lord Gushan, look, they are the Denglai Army, and the general's surname is Zhao."
Asiha, who had been speechless, suddenly said.
"Well," Leng Geli's heart skipped a beat, Denglaijun Zhao Lie, this was a name that made the Jurchen high-level officials grit their teeth.

It was this man who defeated Dajin's attacks three times in the Ming Dynasty.
He was defeated in Zhuozhou and gave Dajin a heavy blow.
It can be said that in the rewarding Ming Dynasty's trip to the capital, only this Ming general made Da Jin really lose his blood.
It also lost the face of the royal family.
After that, Huang Taiji repeatedly told his subordinates to be careful about this Ming army.
If there is a chance, we must annihilate them all and chop off the heads of the Ming generals who dare to resist Dai Jin, so as to shock the Ming people.
Daikin has always been like this.
Leng Geli looked at the flag and saw that it marked Denglai Jinghaiwei Commander, Zhao.
Except for the name Zhao Lie, everything else was marked on the flag.
However, Leng Geli was present when the Fushun Prince Consort reported for the last time.
This Zhao Lie was indeed promoted to the commander of the Denglai Jinghai Guards of the Ming Dynasty and became a third-rank official.
It seems that this Zhao Lie is really unwilling to be lonely.
He came across the sea after two years and came here to take the initiative to fight.
"Sir, this Ming army can kill Master Tabai and make the king return without success.
It should not be underestimated.
Although our army has three thousand people, there are only two thousand Han troops..."
The skinny Asha He shook his head, not optimistic about the combat power of the Han army.
"So what, we can still avoid the battle."
The stout Shu Lu raised his voice.
Let the surrounding guards take a look.
"What are you in a hurry for?
I just said that you need to plan carefully."
Asiha turned over some silver, and there was really no way to talk to this rough guy.
"What are you planning?
Let the Han army charge into the formation, and I will lead the troops to follow behind.
When the Han army breaks up the Ming army's formation, and the Jia soldiers rush into the enemy's formation, the Ming army will definitely be broken up.
Our army will just attack and kill them behind."
Shu Lu curled his lips and said disdainfully.
"Huh, stupid, that's what Lord Tabai thought back then."
Asiha shook his head helplessly.
"Okay, Gua Nao, shut up."
Leng Geli stopped the quarrel between the two.
Before discovering that the Ming army on the opposite side was from Zhao Lie's unit, Leng Geli had the same plan in his heart.
However, he found out that it was Zhao Lie's unit.
Then this plan will not work.
You know, Tabai also handled it in the same way back then, and ended up losing his life.
Of course, it was impossible to avoid the fight.
He couldn't afford to lose this person.
He was thinking about how to kill him with one blow.
While Leng Geli was thinking about it, a horn sounded from the Ming army formation, and all the Polu troops stood up, while a burst of singing floated on the battlefield.
Wolf smoke rises, the country looks north The dragon rises, the horse roars, the sword air is like frost My heart is like the vast water of the Yellow River . . . . . . .
Hateful and mad, the sword is directed towards . . . . . . . .
The singing was a little scattered at first, then became louder and louder, and finally resounded throughout the wilderness, with an aura of vowing to fight the enemy to the death.
This is a fearless war song.
Even if Leng Geli couldn't understand the words, he understood that this was a veteran's intuition.

This is not a strong enemy, this is a mortal enemy.
Suddenly, a powerful sound of brass horns came from the enemy's formation.
Then the small cannons in front of the formation suddenly roared, and in the firelight and smoke, the projectiles arrived quickly.
Dust suddenly rose in the Han army's formation in front.
The limbs of men and horses fell out, and the sound of shouting and neighing continued.
Leng Geli and others could clearly see more than a dozen bloody alleys appearing in the formation from behind. .
Some Han soldiers and horses fell to the ground and howled and moaned, and the Han army's formation was in chaos.
"Tell Guan Zhicheng to disperse and retreat."
Leng Geli is a veteran.
This is not the first time he has experienced Mingren's bombardment.
At this time, it is most important to let the dense formation disperse.
He also did not expect that the Ming army's small artillery could hit the Han army nearly three miles away.
Before the order arrived, the Ming army shelled twice more.
The Han army's formation was completely in chaos.
Although there were only about a hundred casualties, the scene of the men and horses being torn into pieces was too bloody.
The shrill cries of the wounded men and horses were horrifying.
After Guan Zhicheng gave the order, the Han troops rushed back in panic, leaving more than a hundred dead and wounded.
"Sir, if the cavalry charges into the formation, I'm afraid they won't be able to break away from the enemy formation.
Lord Tabai tried it back then.
Unless there are ten or twenty thousand cavalry charging into the formation from all sides, this formation is weaker on both sides.
Now I think I have to use siege weapons.
Method.
Use a donkey cart and a thick wooden shield to push forward."
Asiha was not idle for a moment, and he came up with an idea in an instant.
After thinking about it for a moment, Leng Geli realized that this was indeed the case.
"There are no donkey carts or thick wooden shields during the march."
Shu Lu said dissatisfiedly, it was really unpleasant.
"There are many trees at the foot of the mountain behind.
One hour is enough."
Asiha was also angry.
This Shu Lu had a stone head.
"Okay, stop arguing.
Tell the Han army to dismount and cut down the trees and make donkey carts and wooden shields.
Shu Lu, you go and supervise the army."
Leng Geli stopped and the two quarreled.
Shu Lu had no choice but to rush his horse away.
The Han soldiers obeyed the order and rushed to the foot of the mountain more than two miles behind.
There was a pine forest here with no shortage of wood.
They started to work with axes and waist knives.
They were proficient in these tasks.
Whenever they camped or attacked a city, these tasks of cutting wood and collecting materials were theirs.
Who made them slaves of the Jurchens?
This was their fate.
"Asiha, you said that seeing the Han army busy, General Ming must have known that he was rushing to make donkey carts and wooden shields.
What decision would he make?"

Leng Geli asked with a smile.
"Master Gushan, the Ming army has three decisions.
The first is to march immediately and rush up before our army can produce donkey carts and wooden shields.
The second is to wait where it is, and the third is to withdraw and fight again."
Thinking.
"Well, that's right.
I hope this Zhao Lie has some blood and can rush over immediately."
Leng Geli said.
Of course they both hoped it would be the first one.
The third choice estimated that the Ming Dynasty warrior would not do this.
If they retreated at this point, how could the troops escape the cavalry?
He was not that stupid.
Then the Ming army can fight out, so that the Ming army is not waiting for work, and the Jurchen cavalry is best at annihilating the enemy in chaos.
However, it is a pity that the Ming army on the opposite side did not fight out.
Not only did they not fight out, they also sat down and recuperated their strength.
The two of them shook their heads helplessly.
This Zhao Lie was really calm.
"Sir, Jiannu wants to build wooden shields and donkey carts.
These two are a big threat to our formation."
Han Jian and Lan Mingshan, who were holding the formation in front, couldn't help but urge their horses to gallop back to report.
"Follow the second plan and tell the artillery team to assemble."
Zhao Lie ordered.
The record of training in Shidao should be used.
The two guards took the order and galloped forward, conveying Zhao Lie's order to the commander of the artillery team at the front.
Then, ten marching cannons were dragged by war horses towards the rear of the military formation.
There were also hundreds of strong fire gunners who turned back and gathered in the rear.
Lenggri and Asiha did not see the gunman's turn.
They only saw the marching artillery's turn.
They looked at each other and knew that General Ming would not be at a loss.
This change must be aimed at donkey carts and carts.
The wooden shield is here, but I don’t know what method it is, so I can only talk about it when charging into the formation.
An hour later, the donkey cart and wooden shield were completed.
The Han army was still in the front, but this time they were dismounted and fighting on foot.
In front of them were heavy donkey carts and wooden shields.
And a thousand Jiannu armored soldiers were behind them.
The purpose was obviously to wait for the Han army to shake the Ming army's position and then defeat the enemy with one blow
