Chapter 335: Siege, Withdrawal

Mao Yuanyi waved the command flag, formed a four-layer musket formation with the regiment as a unit, and then combined the eight musket arrays into a huge square circle array, and the formation was empty, as the place where the commander was located.

Mao Yuanyi looked around, and saw that the officers and soldiers of the Tianwu Army were holding muskets, and they were not panicked at all because of the strength of the Qing army, he nodded with satisfaction, such a strong army, and with this extremely defensive formation, who can break it?

Seeing that the Qing army around him was getting closer and closer, and it was less than a mile, Mao Yuanyi's eyes flashed a bloodthirsty look, and he shouted: "Prepare to fight!" ”

"Kill!"

All the soldiers shouted, and their morale rose again.

Xu Qingshan, the regiment commander in the military array, was also a big and loud voice, his heart was boiling, he was going to kill the Tartars again, and he had military merits again!

Since he killed the slave chief Duoduo last year, Xu Qingshan has been promoted to three levels in a row, and with his bravery in combat on weekdays, he has been credited many times, and has gradually been promoted to the position of regiment commander, in charge of 1,300 Tianwu Army sergeants.

Xu Qingshan glanced at Mao Yuanyi, who was standing with his beard in the distance, and he secretly decided that if he could return to Fengyang Mansion alive, he would definitely enter the Royal Military Academy for further study and become a strategizing general.

In his thoughts, he only heard Mao Yuanyi shouting and encouraging: "Wherever my Tianwu Army flags, the ugliness of the group are all destroyed, and the soldiers can have the confidence to fight the demons with one as ten?" ”

"Fight! War! War! ”

A majestic shout suddenly exploded, and everyone's faces were full of determination, with the majesty of my Tianwu army, what about ten times?

The more than 200,000 troops on both sides of the Xiaoling River were shocked when they heard this shocking morale, especially the Qing army that came from the encirclement, and they obviously felt that there was a pile of hard bones in front of them, which was not easy to gnaw.

The emperor made a will, even if it is not easy to gnaw, the dense layers of the Eight Banners Army formed a tight encirclement two hundred steps away from the Tianwu Army's circle array.

However, they did not encircle to death, there was still a gap in the direction of Bauhinia Mountain, and the art of war of secretly encircling three ques, once the Tianwu army was unwilling to fight to the death, it would break through to the gap, and the result of the breakthrough was that the elite of the two Yellow Banners of Manchuria around the Bauhinia Mountain were chased and killed by the eight banners.

With such a small skill of carving insects, Mao Yuanyi didn't know, he stood upright with his sword, without any action, the longer the time dragged on, the more beneficial it was to the Tianwu Army, if the Tartars didn't fight, I wouldn't move, see who consumed whom.

The Tianwu army was nailed there like a nail, pinning down many Qing troops and relieving a lot of pressure on the river-crossing army.

Haoge's temper was the most urgent, he couldn't bear it anymore, and directly ordered: "The whole army will attack, behead the first level of the Tianwu Army, the official will be promoted to the first level, and the cloth will carry the flag!" ”

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

The order was issued, the war drums were beating, and tens of thousands of people in the Eight Banners Army wanted to echo from afar, and the cries of one after another stretched for several miles, and the entire Bauhinia Mountain was the sound of their wolf howls.

The Eight Banners Army shouted slogans, and the black pressure pressed towards the Tianwu Army's round formation, and some of the white-armored soldiers who were good at pretending to be forced rode their horses and galloped wildly, and they also beat their chests vigorously to show their strength.

"Fire!"

A deafening gunfire rang out, and the entire square circle array bloomed like a rotating firework, erupting fierce firelight, and the Qing troops attacking around it suddenly fell in a circle.

The first row of each formation of the Tianwu Army retreated to the last row, and the original second row once again triggered a volley, followed by the third row, the fourth row, and then from the original first row........

The besieging Qing troops staggered and rolled to the ground one by one, and the smell of blood and terrible howls soon spread.

The sound of platoon guns firing continued, and although the Qing army was strong, it could not rush to a distance of forty paces.

Outside the round formation filled with gunsmoke, the corpses of the Qing army were lying on the ground, and slowly piled up, and the pungent smell of blood made people feel sick.

Hauge was irritable, rode his horse, and constantly whipped the war-feared bannermen.

"Idiot!" In the distance, Dolgon sneered, stopped looking at him, his eyes slightly closed, and waited patiently for the shield cart of the rear team.

Not long after, the bannermen of the white flag came with carts and shield carts, like a wall pushed horizontally, and launched an attack on the circle formation of the Tianwu Army.

The shield cart of the Qing army could restrain the fire gun to the death, which caused a lot of pressure on the Tianwu army.

Mao Yuanyi shouted: "Prepare the grenade, throw it in thirty steps!" ”

Without artillery support, you can only use grenades to destroy the shield car of the Qing army, otherwise the musket advantage of the Tianwu army will be suppressed.

"Bang! Boom! Bang ......"

A series of explosions rang out, and the circle was thirty paces away, and everywhere there were sawdust from shield carts and the mutilated corpses of Qing soldiers.

The difficulty of the Tianwu army was beyond the expectations of all the Qing generals, and in a short period of time, the casualties of the Qing army's forwards exceeded one percent, especially those clothed minions, who heard that they had the opportunity to carry the flag and took their lives to fill it up like crazy.

The Qing generals can also understand that the status of these clothed minions is no different from that of dogs, and if they give them some benefits, they will wag their tails, and they want to turn over and become masters, and it is strange if they are not crazy.

The white-flag-clad soldiers pushing the shield cart were frightened by the bombing and retreated again and again.

Zhengbai Banner Baya Lama Zhangjing Suke Saha said anxiously: "Master, the casualties of the armored soldiers in the banner are too great. ”

Dolgon said: "Let the coated servants in the flag get on, if you want to carry the flag, you have to let them fight hard!" ”

Not only did Dolgon give such an order, but all the departments of the Eight Banners did the same, so that the Bao Yi people opened the way, especially Ma Guangyuan, Liu Zhiyuan, Wu Shoujin and other Eight Banners Han Army Divisions, which were urged by the Manchurian banners to play the vanguard.

Although the Han army in the banner wants to carry the flag, but also knows that it is better to die than to live, the fire of the Tianwu army is too terrible, every time the gun sounds, the brothers in front will fall down in a row, the happier they rush, the sooner they die, who wants to play the striker.

But since he has been sold into slavery, he naturally has to fill it up.

The sun gradually slanted to the west, the Xiaoling River was desolate and solemn, and the north bank was filled with gunsmoke, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

The square circle array resisted countless attacks by the Qing army, and the pressure of the circle array became greater and greater, gradually shrinking, and the defensive power gradually increased, from the original four rows to five rows.

However, because the gun tube could not withstand the high temperature pressure caused by many shots, the Tianwu army in the round formation had to be equipped with bayonets, and the circle array was transformed into multiple mandarin duck small formations, and the Qing army started a fierce white-edged battle.

"Thorn!"

Xu Qingshan let out a loud shout, and his eyes flashed a blood-red, which was the color of madness eager to kill.

"Kill!"

The front row of the small array of mandarin ducks listened to their bayonets, roared and stabbed at the attacking Qing army, the bayonet pierced through the throat, the Qing soldier could not scream, and his body twitched violently.

The small formations of mandarin ducks are constantly changing, and the sergeants in each formation cooperate with each other to attack, each time they attack accurately and ruthlessly, coupled with their three-edged bayonets are overbearing and abnormal, the Qing soldiers they face are all pale.

Madness and blood are displayed here to the fullest, and the Tianwu Army not only has sharp firearms, hand-to-hand combat, and fierce and fierce, which makes all Qing troops fearful!

On the bank of the river, countless Ming reinforcements crossed the Xiaoling River and rushed up, and gathered more and more, and the Mongol army blocking by the river had already collapsed and retreated.

Huang Taiji's face on Bauhinia Mountain was pale, and the sixty or seventy thousand army could not help the Tianwu army with less than 10,000 people, which was simply a shame since the founding of the Qing Dynasty!

He looked in the direction of Rufeng Mountain, as if he was looking for Zhu Cihong in the mountain, and only after a long time did he turn around, slowly scan the ministers, and said, "Retreat, retreat to the Daling River." ”

Huang Taiji knew that the Battle of Jinzhou was lost after all, and he didn't know how future history would evaluate this war, but he knew that if he didn't leave, he was afraid that he wouldn't even have a chance to go down the mountain.......
