"General, there are traces of Horqin's people in front of us!"
The mounted scout reported to Wu Weiying and said loudly, "It's a large group of herdsmen!"
Wu Weiying nodded, "There's no need to kill them. Continue to send people to drive them away. Send out a small group of cavalry to kill the Horqin cavalry.
If you find a large group of cavalry, report to me immediately! "
"Yes!" After the scout replied, he quickly rode away.
In fact, from the second day onwards, the Ming Army's eastern route began to slow down in order to make it easier for Qi Jiguang to collect the horses and livestock of the Horqin herdsmen.
Of course, it was also to drive away the people of Horqin.
In Qi Jiguang's eyes, the Horqin was like a turtle in a jar. No matter what, it would not be able to escape from the palm of his hand.
The Ming Army's advancing speed slowed down. This gave Weng Guodai a chance to calmly deploy his troops.
When he left the Horqin's tent, Weng Guodai only had 10,000 cavalry. However, when he arrived at the western route, Weng Guodai already had more than 40,000.
"General, there is a large group of Horqin cavalry in front of us."
Liu Wei, who was sitting on the horse, heard the report from the mounted scout. He was slightly stunned. A large group of Horqin cavalry?
How big can you be?
It's not like I don't know the strength of the Horqin. Can you really go to heaven?
"How many?" Liu Wei pulled the reins and asked.
"About tens of thousands!" The mounted scout quickly replied.
Liu Wei was stunned. Tens of thousands?
Where did this come from?
However, Liu Wei laughed. He pointed to the left and right and said, "Do you see that? Do you see that? What is luck? What is merit from heaven?"
"This is it!"
As he spoke, Liu Wei ordered loudly, "Assemble the army and prepare for war. I want to see who is so blind as to bump into me!"
As the son of Great General Liu Xian, Liu Wei was definitely a prideful person. Forget about Qi Jiguang, he was no match for him. However, when it came to Daming the other generals, Liu Wei was not convinced by any of them.
Ma Lin, Ma Dong, Wu Weiying, and Zhang Weixian were far inferior to him.
Liu Wei made up his mind to raise his title of nobility. Let's not talk about being conferred the title of Duke, but being conferred the title of Marquis should be enough, right?
However, when they split up, the middle lane was given to Li Chengliang, which made Liu Wei very unhappy.
Why should he, Li Chengliang, play the middle lane?
Why should he attack the Khan's tent?
However, military orders were like a mountain. He couldn't fight for it with Qi Jiguang, so Liu Wei was quite depressed. Now that he heard that there were tens of thousands of Horqin cavalry in front, Liu Wei suddenly became spirited.
Not long after, the scouts came back with a report.
"General, we caught the tongue. We found out that it was the Khan of Horqin, Weng Guodai, who personally led the army here."
After hearing this report, Liu Wei was even more excited. He was so happy that he couldn't help but sit on his horse. Then, his face darkened and he said loudly, "Do you see that? This Khan of Horqin, Weng Guodai, is planning to defeat us one by one!"
"But why did he choose us?
Why? "
Liu Wei angrily shouted, "Assemble, gather all the Qianhu for me!"
The soldier quickly went to deliver the order. Soon, more than 20 Qianhu gathered around Liu Wei.
Liu Wei waved his horsewhip and shouted, "Look at you, look at you!"
"Usually, you all talk about how good you can fight. Look at you now."
"A Horqin's Weng Guodai came up with the idea of attacking us one by one, and then he came looking for us.
Why didn't he go to Li Chengliang? Why didn't he go to Wu Weiying? Why did he come to us? "
"That's because he thinks we're the weakest. He's looking down on us."
"Don't you feel ashamed? Don't you feel ashamed?
In any case, I feel like I've lost all my face.
Let me tell you, Weng Guodai has more than 40,000 cavalry, maybe even 50,000. "
"But I'm not afraid. I'm going to fight this battle with Weng Guodai."
"I'm going to use the blade in my hand to tell Weng Guodai that he dares to look down on Liu Wei. I'll chop his head off.
Are you afraid?
If you are, tell me and I'll let you go. I've always been this magnanimous. "
Everyone was speechless. Magnanimous? Don't we know what kind of people you are?
Furthermore, was this a magnanimous thing to do?
Running away from battle? If they went back, they would probably lose their heads. Who would be stupid to go back at such a time?
However, Liu Gu's words really stirred up the anger of the people below.
Who were these people?
They were all proud soldiers and generals!
Many of them had graduated from the martial arts hall. Honours and sons of generals were everywhere.
They had entered the capital with outstanding results or accumulated merits. They were known as the strongest army in Daming.
Normally, he would be indignant and look at everyone else as inferior to him.
A mere dog with Horqin's head actually dares to look down on us?
"General, what's there to fear even if Horqin has a hundred thousand soldiers, let alone forty to fifty thousand?
Let's go down together, but I don't think it's appropriate to kill Weng Guodai. We should capture him alive. "
"When the time comes, we'll push him in front of the Grand Marshal and let the Grand Marshal see who deserves the credit. We won't be able to snatch it away. Am I right?"
"Yes!"
"Yes, that's right, that's right!"
Everyone hurriedly laughed in agreement.
Liu Wei raised his blade: "You brat, you're still talking about literature. But what you said makes sense. Didn't the martial arts hall say it before?
Tang Taizong's favorite thing to do was to bring the enemy to Chang 'an and dance for him there. "
"Let's do the same this time. Send this Weng Guodai to the capital to dance for His Majesty."
"Let me tell you, if anyone kills me, don't blame me for turning against you.
Capture Weng Guodai alive. When the time comes, I will personally report to him. Whoever kills him will have no credit. "
"Go back and organize the army. Capture Weng Guodai alive and send him to dance for His Majesty!"
More than 20 Qianhu all shouted, "Capture Weng Guodai alive and send him to dance for His Majesty!"
In an instant, the Ming Army all shouted, "Capture Weng Guodai alive and send him to dance for His Majesty." Their morale was high.
Looking at the high morale of the 20,000 Ming Army, Weng Guodai's face darkened.
In reality, Weng Guodai was unwilling to face the Ming Army head-on. But Weng Guodai also knew that he had to be tough.
If he didn't defeat this Ming Army, what would happen to the middle?
He needed to finish the battle quickly. Then, he could drag it out. Otherwise, what would he use to drag it out?
"Pass down my order. Everyone, charge forward. I want to destroy the Ming Army in one blow!"
Weng Guodai shouted, "The one who kills the famous general will be rewarded with a thousand cows and sheep. I will marry my daughter to him!"
Weng Guodai also put in a lot of effort this time. He even took out his daughter.
Looking at Weng Guodai who was charging towards him, Liu Wei reached out and pulled out his two guns. Then, he shouted, "Brothers, it's time to make a contribution. Capture Weng Guodai alive and send him to dance for His Majesty!"
The Ming Army behind Weng Guodai also shouted, "Capture Weng Guodai alive and send him to dance for His Majesty!"
