Chapter 95: Field Battle
Sizhou Mansion, after a group of soldiers cleaned up the hall, Feng Yuan came forward and hugged him, and came in with his lieutenant generals, thousands of households, and the clerks who took over the civil affairs.
"Let's go!"
There was a burst of shouting and scolding, and Zhao Heng walked in front. Behind him, several soldiers kept pushing and shoving Gao Jie, who was bound by ropes.
After reaching the hall, two soldiers kicked Gao Jie's leg and forced him to his knees.
"Lord Wang, Gao Jie brought!"
Zhao Heng strode forward, his voice was loud, his eyes were shining, he was wearing heavy armor, and he was full of momentum.
Now, he gradually handed over the authority of the embroidered guard to Liu Fang, and began to serve more by Feng Yuan's side, serving as a brave general who charged into battle.
For Zhao Heng, he wants to make contributions to the battle array, and only by making enough military exploits can he be crowned a marquis and a general, and a wife and a son.
And in charge of a secret agent organization like the Embroidery Guard, even if the future authority can be the same as that of the Jinyi Guard, there is no military merit, and there is no way to be a marquis.
"The prince spares his life, and the last general is willing to submit to ......"
Gao Jie is burly, five big and three thick, but his appearance is quite heroic, and he looks heroic, no wonder he was able to hook up with Li Zicheng's wife and firmly let the other party wear a green hat.
However, Gao Jie usually looks heroic, but when it comes to life and death, he can't hold back.
After he knelt down, he barely looked up at Feng Yuan, and hurriedly begged for mercy.
If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place?
Seeing this, many lieutenants and thousands of households in the hall couldn't help but shake their heads, the prince has arrived in Sizhou, you honestly open the city to show how good it is to take refuge, and you can continue to enjoy the glory and wealth in the future.
Now that the city has been captured and become a prisoner under the stairs, life and death are not up to them.
"Lord Wang, now that Bolo is about to arrive with his troops, he will kill the generals in battle, it is a little unknown, it is better to leave Gao Jie's life first, so that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city can serve with peace of mind......"
A scribe quietly stepped forward and whispered a suggestion beside Feng Yuan.
In Feng Yuan's heart, he didn't mean to kill Gao Jie.
Although Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing are both often defeated generals, they have repeatedly led troops to flee.
But the difference is that Liu Zeqing slaughtered the people at every turn, and he was cruel by nature, while Gao Jie rarely did anything to harm the people, and he did not lose the big festival, and he never had the idea of surrendering to the Manchu Tartars.
So after hearing the advice of the scribe beside him, Feng Yuan did not object.
"Since you are willing to submit, then the king will spare your life! Zhao Heng, you take people and General Gao to collect tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city, select some people who dare to fight, and order a battalion to be led by you!"
Zhao Heng showed a look of surprise and immediately shouted his order.
With Gao Jie's active cooperation, the matter of recruiting soldiers and horses became very smooth.
However, before Zhao Heng could select the elite soldiers he wanted, the Manchu cavalry led by Bo Luo came to Sizhou dozens of miles away.
What cavalry is best at is field warfare. And the most elite cavalry today is the Manchu Eight Banners.
Fortunately, the one who came to Sizhou this time was just a partial division.
Feng Yuan asked his henchmen to stay in the city with 3,000 soldiers and horses, while he personally led 17,000 soldiers and horses out of the city to meet the enemy.
Among the 17,000 soldiers and horses, there were 3,000 firefighters!
......
Outside the city, Feng Yuan led the soldiers and horses to line up in the city.
Looking from afar, I saw a black cloud surging in the sky, the ground roared, and behind the black cloud, there was a large group of soldiers wearing the Ming army's uniforms, which was led by Liu Liangzuo, who surrendered to the Tartars.
"Liu Liangzuo ......"
Feng Yuan showed a cold light in his eyes after seeing these surrendered troops.
In this era at the end of the Ming Dynasty, if you want to resist the Qing soldiers, you must not only have the courage to fight head-on with the Manchu Eight Banners, but also be careful of the groups of pig teammates behind you.
Because you don't know when, your teammates will change their appearance and become enemies.
I don't know how many generals of the Ming army were caught off guard by the front and back, and the soldiers were defeated and died.
After seeing Liu Liangzuo's military flag, Feng Yuan's heart rose with a cold killing intention.
According to the usual tactics of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, whether it is attacking cities and seizing land, or fighting with the enemy in the field, they first use the surrender army as cannon fodder to consume the opponent's energy.
When the opponent was exhausted, the Qing soldiers suddenly dispatched cavalry and routed the opponent in one fell swoop.
This method of warfare can greatly reduce the casualties of the children of the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. It can also guarantee the record of the Qing army to the greatest extent.
Even if the army is defeated, it will not hurt the main force of the Qing army.
As Feng Yuan expected, soon, a dull military horn sounded on the opposite side.
Liu Liangzuo's tens of thousands of surrendered troops, under the surveillance of the Manchu cavalry in the rear, had to go into battle.
A large number of thinly clothed soldiers carried swords and guns, shouted, and charged towards Feng Yuan's army battle array.
Among the Manchu cavalry in the rear, the Manchu Bellebolo, who commanded this partial division, was wearing armor and holding a horse whip in his hand, staring ahead.
I saw that the Ming army was full of momentum, which was different from other Ming troops he had seen.
When Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and horses rushed up, thousands of archers first covered it with arrows, and then a thousand musketeers, carrying arquebuses, formed a three-fold formation, and continued to bombard.
In the terrible screams, Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and horses lost more than 1,000 people in an instant.
Seeing this, Bolo's brow furrowed.
"The soldiers and horses under the command of Zhu Lunsheng are really different from other Ming troops!"
He already knew that Gao Jie in Sizhou was forcibly incorporated by Zhu Lunsheng's army, but he didn't know that it was Feng Yuan who commanded the army on the other side.
Under the supervision of the Tartar soldiers behind him, Liu Liangzuo, despite his heavy losses, had to forcibly order his subordinates to regroup and attack again.
This time, it was the shield-bearer with a large shield who rushed to the forefront.
There were three thousand firecrackers under Feng Yuan's command, who stepped forward in turn, constantly shooting.
However, Liu Liangzuo was outnumbered, using some of them to attract the firecrackers, and the other part took the opportunity to charge and kill in front of the battle formation. Originally, they were all soldiers and horses under the Ming Dynasty, and they began to fight each other for their lives.
Under the continuous impact of Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and horses, the originally strict military formation began to waver a little, revealing some flaws.
In the blink of an eye, the two armies fought back and forth for more than an hour. The firecrackers, who had been roaring incessantly, had to temporarily retreat when the enemy troops were in front of them.
"Good chance!"
Bolo laughed when he saw this, without the firecracker, the defensive formation was shaken again, it was a good opportunity for the cavalry to charge the formation!
His laughter suddenly stopped, he took the iron spear from his own soldiers, personally led thousands of Manchu cavalry, and set out with a bang!
As if the sky was cracking, this cavalry with a roar that shook the earth, the speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it circled an arc and entered the battle formation from the flank.
At the forefront were the most elite white-armored soldiers among the Qing soldiers.
Each of them wears triple armor and is good at heavy bows and iron guns, which can shoot from a distance and charge into battle.
Forming a cavalry to charge, even those first-class masters on the rivers and lakes will be crushed to death by hard collisions.
