Chapter 640 Pursuit
"On the night of the third day, the restless Yan army finally calmed down, because once again the situation was as Judy had predicted. According to the intelligence brought by the Kuantai reconnaissance, the imperial army was about to arrive and enter their encirclement."
"High-level hunters always appear as prey. I wonder if Ping An, Wu Jie, and the others, who were on their way, ever thought about this?"
"At dawn, the Prince of Yan and his men had indeed waited until then. The imperial army they had been hoping for finally appeared. So the Prince of Yan, with a small number of elite cavalry, ambushed them on the flat ground beside the Fei River."
"Then those carrying torches used their light to signal the main force of the Yan army, which was lying in ambush on the banks of the Fei River, to attack the unsuspecting imperial army."
"The Yan army's main generals Liu Jiang and Wang Zhen, among others, effectively completed the tasks assigned by Judy. At that time, the three commanders, Ping An, Wu Jie, and Chen Hui, led three thousand cavalrymen to occupy the northern slope of the battlefield in order to stabilize the main cavalry formation."
"Judy has such sharp eyes and a cunning mind. She saw this scene and just fell right into his hands. She was just waiting for the three of you, the commanders, to appear!"
Prince Yan, Zhu Di: The way you say that makes it sound like he's full of cunning and scheming!
"The exposure of the positions of the three main generals prompted the Prince of Yan to personally lead his men and three thousand battalions in a direct charge. The soldiers on both sides were the most elite of their respective forces, and naturally, they engaged in a chaotic and brutal battle."
"I believe it must have been quite intense at the time. In the early Ming Dynasty, there was no shortage of Mongol generals, and the two sides of Mongol generals even clashed fiercely. The Mongols also witnessed and participated in the civil war within the Zhu family."
Zhu Yuanzhang and his sons: "......"
"In the end, the three commanders, Ping An, Wu Jie, and Chen Hui, were almost captured again. It was thanks to the high quality of the cavalry that they were able to lead the remaining troops to retreat from the hands of the Prince of Yan once again."
"As for the captured Mongol generals and others, those who were unwilling to change their masters went down to accompany Zhu Yuanzhang, while those who were willing to switch sides followed Judy to fight against Jianwen. I still admire those who chose to be loyal to the court, which was very rare to see in the late Ming Dynasty."
The Zhu family, who were unwittingly stabbed in the back: ?_? Life is truly unpredictable, like a large intestine wrapped around a small intestine.
Under a large tree at the village entrance in another time and space, the villagers heard the news and had differing opinions.
"If you ask me, what's the point of surrendering to the Prince of Yan? It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death!"
"Go away, what do you know? This is called loyalty and righteousness. What a good subordinate!"
"The Prince of Yan is the ultimate winner. Wouldn't it be great to gain some credit by following him?"
"They don't know that credit isn't so easy to earn; how many people have died in the process?"
The sound gradually faded away, and Zhu Di, far away in the Ming Dynasty, was naturally unaware of it. He thought of the Jingnan Rebellion, as if it had happened not long ago, as if those people were still in front of him. He was still worried about his reputation after his death.
"In this battle, the Prince of Yan won again. The imperial army suffered thousands of casualties and captured nearly ten thousand warhorses. Ping An, Wu Jie, and others were in a tough situation. On one hand, they were running for their lives while on the other hand, the Yan army was chasing them desperately, heading towards Suzhou."
"When the imperial army entered Suzhou, the Yan army did not rush to attack the city. Instead, they waited until the Zhen Ding army was severely weakened before the Dezhou troops finally arrived in Suzhou."
"Logistics is very important in war between two armies, but Judy is not afraid because he seized the grain in Xuzhou before he came. It's a matter of who can afford to fight longer. He will also have a time when he has plenty of grain."
Judy: What's mine is mine, and what's mine is still mine!!!
