After interrogating the captured Ming army, Tan Yi was happy and worried. What was happy was that there was indeed a prince in this Ming army, and he had not left in Wanxian today. He even learned that the prince was currently named Deng Ming. What was worried was that the Ming army had arrived in Wanxian for two days and had not encountered any resistance, so the Ming army would have good physical strength. More than two thousand Ming troops might still be quite combat-effective. When overcoming the resistance of this Ming army, if they distributed dozens of elite troops to protect the prince of the Han Dynasty to escape, then Tan Yi would not have a great chance of catching the big fish.

Thinking of this, Tan Yi even hurriedly urging the soldiers who had not yet got off the ship to go ashore as soon as possible. If the Prince Han did not react in time enough, he might have time to catch up.

The safest way is to choose a place that is still a distance away from Wanxian, rectify the troops and then advance to Wanxian, which is the same as the actions of the Ming army a few days ago. However, Tan Yi felt that first, there was not so much time, and second, he confirmed that there were only two thousand four or five hundred reorganized Ming army defeated soldiers in the city. The Ming army's strength was only half of Tan Yi's strength, and there were no generals in charge. They were all middle and low-level officers who organized and controlled the troops. They could not compare with Tan Yi's combat experience or prestige. Tan Yi was still very confident in defeating this Ming army.

So the Qing soldiers did not hesitate. The ships on the river drove directly into Wanxian's vision and rushed down the warships in front of the Ming army. As an experienced veteran, Tan Yi was guarding against the possible counterattack of the Ming army. After years of running-in command system, it also showed its efficiency. The Qing army, which landed in advance, quickly laid a defensive formation and built simple fortifications.

When the Qing army quickly arranged the beachhead positions and sent the follow-up troops continuously, a burst of chaos broke out in the Wanxian County Yamen.

The officers first summoned the army and announced that a large number of Qing troops were approaching. While the soldiers in the city were panic, the officers believed Zhao Tianba's lies and ran to relieve the alarm. As a result, the alarm had just been lifted, and from the city of Wanxian, they saw the Qing army densely packed like ants on the shore.

"The surname of Zhao! You want to give me an explanation!" Li Xinghan shouted sternly.

"This is my idea," Deng Ming immediately stood up to help Zhao Tianba: "I think it's better to fight the city than to retreat without a fight."

"Mr. Deng..." Li Xinghan felt that he was so angry that he had no way out by this ignorant clan's family. Why was he going to defeat a battle? However, when he saw the relaxed expression on Zhao Tianba's face, he immediately turned to the Western thief again. He pointed at Zhao Tianba and asked: "Mr. Deng, is this thief the first idea that this thief came up with?"

"I thought it out..." Deng Ming certainly wouldn't let Zhao Tianba push the jar for him and continue to distinguish it for him.

"Mr. Deng told me that you, Mr. Li Qian and Mr. Zhou Qian will never leave your subordinates behind to escape, so even if half of the soldiers can escape, you two will still stay in this mountain." Before Deng Ming finished speaking, Zhao Tianba next to him interrupted him and faced the glaring of the people in the hall without fear: "You will not leave your brothers behind to escape, Mr. Deng said that he will never leave you behind to escape, come out of Chongqing together, and return to Fengjie together."

Suddenly, the county government hall, which was already noisy, was silent, as if ice water fell from the sky, which suddenly extinguished the anger of the furious Li Xinghan and others.

"I can't do it alone," Zhao Tianba did not object, but supported Deng Ming's decision: "I need at least twenty heroes with extraordinary martial arts skills and able to ride horses."

Seeing Zhao Tianba say this, everyone couldn't think of a better solution. With Emperor Chengzu's outstanding martial arts, he finally agreed to Deng Ming's plan and immediately began to find twenty highly capable helpers for Zhao Tianba.

Of course, some people are worried, what should I do if Tan Yi refuses to take the bait? Deng Ming also has similar concerns. Sheng Yong, Ping An, Wu Jie and others were all famous generals of the Southern Army in the early Ming Dynasty, and they were all defeated by the tactics of Emperor Chengzu. If Tan Yi was more calm than them, if Tan Yi had more control over the army than these famous generals, if Tan Yi's military discipline was better than those of these generals... Then Deng Ming could only do nothing.

"I would like to be Mr. Deng's Zheng He." Zhao Tianba patted his chest and said loudly. He remembered the battle at Zhengcunba that Deng Ming mentioned, but Zhao Tianba immediately found that something seemed wrong with his words, and immediately added: "Of course, I'm not a eunuch."

...

The plan was decided, and the Ming army lined up to leave Wanxian.

All the Qing army ships on the opposite side also docked. The Qing army, who had landed in the upstream position, rushed to the city of Wanxian under the leadership of Tan Yi. As Tan Yi raised the flag high, there were loud cheers on the Qing army's positions. Although there were some relatively flat ground near Wanxian, the mountains were also close at hand. The undulating terrain hindered the field of view and signals, and it was more difficult to command the troops than the flat ground.

However, this place was Tan Yi's hometown, and his officers were stationed here for many years, but half of the Ming army was unfamiliar with the place. Compared with the Qing army, the advantage of the Qing army was undoubtedly greater. Seeing that the Ming army on the opposite side actually drove out of the city and looked like fighting, Tan Yi was full of confidence and smiled and said, "The thief is stupid, this is the place where I use my skills."

When the Qing army and the Ming army were each deploying troops, Deng Ming was making the final preparations seriously in the county government. When he went to Tan Hong's camp before, he did not wear a helmet and armor. This was his first time wearing a hang-up.

"Your Highness's general's flag." The guards brought a large red triangle flag and handed it to Deng Ming. The latter did not correct his meaning.

I have never seen the royal family go on the expedition as generals in the past, so the soldiers do not know what specifications to make this flag. Deng Ming did not think too much and planned to write the word "Han" directly on the flag. Since Chongqing heard about Tan Hong's failure, they would definitely hear about the news that Prince Han was in the Ming army, and Deng Ming was determined to pretend to be another one.

"Take the brush and ink." Although Deng Ming's major is oil painting, he took the public course of calligraphy in his first year of college. Before entering university, he also cooperated with the painting and practiced calligraphy.

Dipped in thick ink, Deng Ming picked up a pen and wrote a big word "Han" on the military flag. After looking at it, he found that the effect was very satisfactory, and it was definitely said that his writing skills were abundant - the trick to exercise his writing skills in a regular university in his previous life. People today must have never heard of it?

Deng Ming walked out of the lobby of the county government. The guards held up the battle flag and walked behind him, with a look of pride and solemn expression. Some of the people holding the flag, but holding the battle flag of the Ming royal family, was only reported in the legend before. Zhao Tianba and the selected twenty sharp men were standing in front waiting for him. After seeing Deng Ming and the battle flag that indicated that the royal family was going to fight, the twenty soldiers in their armor saluted him neatly and shouted in unison: "Swear to fight to the death for Your Highness!"

Deng Ming thought about it, but still did not correct their statements, but smiled at the soldiers.

When the officers summoned the soldiers, they told their subordinates that Deng Ming took the initiative to stay and fight side by side with the soldiers. The twenty soldiers also heard it. Deng Ming turned over the horse, and they also jumped onto the horse's back one after another, followed Deng Ming with his lips tightly closed, his head held high and his chest held high. Zhao Tianba and the guard horse queen holding the king's flag.

Deng Ming and his party rode out of Wanxian City. The Ming soldiers lined up in battle outside the city saw Deng Ming's king flag. They had already known the heroic behavior of the clan's clan's son, and the Ming army officers and soldiers shouted at the position of the king flag.

...

Suddenly hearing the Ming army cheers like thunder, Tan Yi was startled and quickly sent scouts to inquire. Before the Ming army, who had just left the city, had not yet opened up the formation, the scouts ran to the near front and observed carefully for a while before returning to report to Tan Yi.

"The royal family is on the battlefield!" After Tan Yi figured out why the opposite side shouted, he carefully looked at the flag that appeared on the battlefield again and again: "I didn't expect that I would have the honor to see it at first sight. For so many years, I have been hoping to see the battle flag of the Ming Dynasty Royal Family flying on the battlefield, and I have always thought that this was just a delusion. I didn't expect that I actually saw it today, but it was opposite me."

After a brief sigh, Tan Yi felt ecstasy again. Prince Han did not escape from this dangerous place but faced the battle. The chances of catching this big man were greatly increased. Compared to offering a Wanxian town to the Qing court, this contribution was much greater.

Compared with the morale of the Ming army, the Qing army seemed much more dull. Tan Yi's subordinates were still the direct subordinates of the Ming army not long ago. When they understood that the royal family went on a war, many people felt a kind of unexplained depression in their hearts. Although the court had always been a vague image for them, they only needed to obey Tan Yi and be loyal to Tan Yi. Even if the Emperor of Ming was on the opposite side, they would still have to fight with him. However, once they saw that the supreme Daming family actually appeared on the battlefield, they still felt oppression coming.

"The morale on the opposite side is very high." Tan Yi had already sorted out his mood, put all the emotions he shouldn't have, and began to think about how to defeat the enemy. He admitted that the morale on the opposite side was good, but war not only relies on morale, but also requires correct command. Tan Yi was full of confidence and confident command ability absolutely overwhelmed the young clan opposite.

Despite this, he also wants to boost morale. If the soldiers feel guilty when they see the sons of the royal family opposite - even if it is only a little bit, it will not help stabilize the morale of the army. Tan Yi hopes that his soldiers will not only not hesitate but will be particularly jealous. When they see Prince Han's flag, they will be full of energy: "Transfer my order, those who capture Prince Han will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!"

In terms of purchasing power, the value of one tael of silver was equivalent to about five hundred yuan, and one hundred taels was equivalent to a huge sum of fifty thousand yuan. As soon as this reward was released, the Qing army's position, which was a little dull just now, suddenly burst into shouts, and everyone was ready to beat their hands, not inferior to the opposite side at all.
