The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Chapter 160 A sharp turn for the worse

Wang Hua thought that it was a waste of time for scholars to play chess, not to mention playing with swords and guns like Wang Shouren.

But he was proud of being in the limelight.

He felt mixed emotions for a while.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Wang Hua who was completely in a trance and said to Yan Chengjin: "It's okay. Anyway, Master Wang doesn't know that the fool I called him was his son."

Wang Hua's face was dark.

Now that you said that, I know it...

Ma Wensheng looked at Emperor Hongzhi and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, if there are casualties, it will be the loss of the court."

Yan Chengjin said: "Don't worry, Lord Ma, look at the weapons they use, they look like black iron, but they are actually wood coated with black and gray ink. The craftsmen imitated the knives, so it probably won't kill people."

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he was relieved. Ma Wensheng didn't say much and watched the fight quietly.

Li Dongyang asked, "How can we decide the winner without the dead?"

"This is simple. The capital army defends and the border army attacks. If the border army fails to attack, the capital army wins."

Winning or losing is not unimportant.

The strength of the two armies will be revealed once they confront each other.

Of course, it is impossible to completely restore the situation on the battlefield at the moment.

The border army brought about fifty cavalrymen, and the rest were infantrymen.

Wang Shouren knew that the power of cavalrymen lies in the impact brought by the rapid galloping. The larger the cavalrymen, the stronger the impact.

At present, there are fifty cavalrymen in the border army. As long as they are blocked, the cavalrymen will not have much power without the overwhelming impact.

"Hold on!"

Tao Lin shouted, "Hold on, everyone! There will be a moon sound in twenty days, and only living people can receive it!"

Looking at the aggressive cavalrymen, the soldiers of the Beijing camp were scared, but when they heard the moon sound, they all gathered their strength and held their swords and cards.

Drink!

The cavalry charged and rushed into the Beijing Army's circle like an arrow.

The first row of the Beijing Army's circle could not resist and was immediately thrown to the ground.

The envoys were deeply shocked by the Ningxia Border Army. The charging force was like a stab, and they broke through the defense.

Although the Beijing Army was weak, the Border Army was very strong!

They had been fighting with the Ming Dynasty for many years, but it was the Border Army, not the Beijing Army. The Border Army was too weak, so they felt that they had an opportunity to take advantage of it. The current Border Army was so strong that it frightened them.

Mandulai knew that this elite defeated Dayan Khan in the Helan Mountains.

It was difficult to find a second army like this in the nine borders of the Ming Dynasty.

The God of War Wang Yue retired, but this Border Army was still so strong. It was really a big worry for the Tatars. Their eyes fell on Huhebaji. This man was brave, and they must find an opportunity to kill him.

Emperor Hongzhi and his ministers had gloomy faces and were not happy.

The border troops showed strong combat effectiveness, but the Beijing troops were the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. His own son was defeated...

Wang Yue looked at the current battle. Wang Shouren asked the Beijing troops to form a circle, which was a good approach to resist the cavalry charge.

But the oppressive feeling of the cavalry rushing over was unavoidable.

The Beijing troops had been farming and had never fought on the battlefield. If it were another army in the Nine Borders, it might not have ended up like this.

The Ningxia Border Army had been fighting with the Tatars for years, and regarded life and death as nothing. They did not need to be encouraged in front of the battle, and would pounce on the prey when they saw it. This was the biggest difference between the two armies.

If he was the garrison commander of the Beijing Army, he would have a chance of winning, but he would need to rely on some external forces and launch surprise attacks. The Beijing Army did not have such conditions at the moment.

He discussed the defense of the Nine Borders with Wang Shouren. This boy was very talented, but a good cook could not cook without rice.

I don't know how Wang Shouren would break the deadlock.

Zhu Houzhao changed his previous frivolousness and looked very seriously.

Yan Chengjin looked calm, but he was a little nervous.

Not having experienced the killing on the battlefield was the biggest shortcoming of the Beijing Army.

I wonder if they can resist Wang Shouren's saintly aura.

Wang Shouren was very calm, just like he was in the past, and his face didn't change much.

Emperor Hongzhi looked solemn: "Yan Qingjia?"

"Your Majesty, please believe Wang Shouren!"

Emperor Hongzhi and his ministers were not calm. Was Wang Shouren a saint in the world?

Everyone stared at the parade ground, thrilling.

The Ningxia Border Army cavalry attacked the first row of circular formations, and the speed slowed down. When it came to the third row of circular formations, they finally blocked it.

"Kick them off their horses!"

Wang Shouren shouted.

The Beijing Army raised long sticks and stabbed them in the horses' bellies. The war horses felt pain and raised their front hooves, shaking the people off.

At the critical moment!

Wang Shouren drew his bow, seized the rare moment, and shot an arrow!

The arrow was swift!

A man fell off his horse, and it was Zhang Liang, the general of the border army!

Such precise archery skills attracted cheers from the high platform.

If it weren't for the special arrowhead, Zhang Liang would probably have died.

"Change the formation!"

Wang Shouren shouted!

One by one, unprecedented formations appeared in front of everyone.

Two sword and shield soldiers blocked in front, followed by a small flag, and then two soldiers holding strange weapons, followed by four spearmen, followed by two halberd soldiers, and finally two long sword soldiers.

One formation, a total of eleven people, formed a powerful killing formation.

The weak Beijing army twisted into a rope, and the momentum suddenly became tough!

The border army wanted to attack, but they were blocked by swords and shields, just like a weasel biting a turtle, and they couldn't bite it.

Retreat, and another spear flew out and hit them.

Dilemma!

The situation took a sharp turn for the worse!

Emperor Hongzhi and his ministers looked a little dazed. The war situation changed so quickly that the envoys were dumbfounded.

Wang Yue exclaimed: "What kind of formation is this?"

Yan Chengjin said: "This formation is called the Mandarin Duck Formation."

This formation was created by Qi Jiguang. He drew it on paper and discussed it with Wang Shouren for a long time. For more than half a month, the Beijing army has been practicing this formation.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Wang Hua in surprise: "Has this boy ever fought in a war?"

Wang Hua shook his head: "Never been on the battlefield."

Emperor Hongzhi also thought it was impossible, but he couldn't help asking.

All the officials took a breath of cold air. How could they believe that they could use troops like this without fighting a war?

Twenty mandarin duck formations forced the border army to collapse. It was the first time they saw such a formation, and the border army didn't know how to start for a while.

"Retreat, reorganize the formation!" Lin Song ordered.

The border army responded very quickly, retreating one after another, keeping a distance of ten meters from the mandarin duck formation.

Lin Song and Zhang Liang had never seen such a formation, which could attack or defend, with almost no flaws.

Mandulai was shocked. He looked at the weapons of the Ming Dynasty's Beijing Army. This formation can make the weak Beijing Army quickly become stronger!

The envoys looked at the scholar of the Beijing Army.

Who is this person?

Wang Shouren shouted calmly: "Change the formation again!"

A team of cavalry rushed out from the rear, and everyone realized that there were cavalry on the Beijing Army side, and there were 80 of them.

The mandarin duck formation of the Beijing Army gave way to the middle road, and the cavalry rushed out from the middle road. The cavalry took the lead and pressed towards the border army in a cone.

Cone formation!

Although the border army also had sword and shield soldiers, the sword and shield soldiers brought back by Lin Song were too few, and they only formed a line of defense, which was torn open by the Beijing Army cavalry.

Looking at these cavalry, Yan Chengjin suddenly remembered Plants vs. Zombies, a car pushed flat to the end.

The mandarin duck formation quickly advanced from this gap and killed into the border army formation.
