Chapter 570: Initiative

To deal with this group of Chu cavalry who entered the hinterland of the Kou, Zierharang and Azig failed to encircle and suppress one after another.

But they can be defeated, but Huang Taiji can't be defeated.

He knew his physical condition, and he also understood the situation that was surging around the undercurrent surrounding the throne of the Great Qing Dynasty. Therefore, as soon as he made a move, he was surrounded by a large army, and he did not give Wang Xiao and Qin Chengye a chance.

But Wang Xiao's tactics are different from Qin Chengye's.

Even in a desperate situation, Wang Xiao will not rise up and rush to the death in front of Huang Taiji.

He is extremely patient and cherishes his combat power, even to the point of being "petty and childish".

The 8,000 men sometimes went north, sometimes south, and fled when they encountered a large group of Qing soldiers, and rushed up to nibble on them when they encountered a small group of Qing soldiers, robbing them of their dry rations.

They didn't walk fast, but they chose places where it was difficult to walk, and sometimes they made hanging baskets to hang the horses together in order to climb over the cliffs......

This is extremely incredible in the minds of the Qing soldiers - how can they hang such a heavy war horse?

All in all, these 8,000 people moved flexibly within a radius of dozens of miles, so that people couldn't touch the edges.

This kind of tactics made the Qing soldiers feel extremely ...... Dislike!

What is even more irritating is that they sometimes dispersed into small groups of several hundred people, planting traps in the mountains and forests, causing casualties to the Qing army.

Such casualties were not large, but they had a very bad impact on the mood of the Qing army, and also made it impossible for the encirclement to shrink quickly.

The larger the encirclement, the more difficult it was for them to distribute grain and grass and transmit intelligence, and the larger the scope of the Chu army's activities, the more opportunities there were to display it.

Therefore, Jiannu was in a hurry to narrow the encirclement. The Chu army did everything possible to disrupt their encirclement......

Huang Taiji knew that Wang Xiao could achieve this level, in addition to great patience, he also had an iron mind and extremely calm judgment.

He knew he was still underestimating his opponent.

But it doesn't matter, he can be patient with him.

The two sides issued orders one after another, commanding and mobilizing their own men and horses, and each order hid its own thoughtfulness, prudence and prudence. It's like, across the mountains and forests and the army, two people are playing against each other.

~~

At this time, Wang Xiao suddenly changed his strategy.

"Fight, we can't beat Jiannu. But every day it drags on, the pressure on Jiannu is a little greater. ”

In the mountains and forests, Wang Xiao slowly analyzed: "The slave chiefs are not having a good time, supplying these soldiers and horses will consume a lot of grain and grass every day. In this mountainous area, the distribution and transportation of grain and grass consumes a lot of manpower and grain and grass. Not being able to annihilate us as soon as possible will also be a huge blow to his prestige. So for us, it's better to drag on.

But now there is not enough space for us to move, and if we continue to survive, we will fall into passivity. On the other hand, although Huang Taiji was anxious to annihilate us, he also saw through the purpose of my delay.

Then, we did the opposite and caught him off guard. Since sooner or later we have to fight a hard battle with Jiannu, it is better to be passive than to take the initiative in this battle, so tonight, we will give Jiannu a blow! ”

Qin Shanqu couldn't help asking, "Why tonight?" The fighters have not yet recovered their strength. ”

"It's windy tonight."

"Which side?"

"Attack the west and take the Huang Taiji Chinese army."

"But the west side has the most soldiers and horses."

"I don't care how many soldiers and horses he has, or which famous generals he commands, it doesn't matter." Wang smiled and said, raised his hand to feel the direction of the wind, and said, "Let's go east against the wind first......

~~

When the group had finished their deliberations, they marched slowly eastward, and instead of mounting their horses, they led them through the dense forest to give them plenty of rest.

Half a day later, the Qing army finally caught up, and when they saw the Chu army from afar, they cheered.

- Finally caught up, and this time entanglement them, they will die without a place to bury!

"Quick! Inform the army that these eight lambs have been found......"

The Qing army began to chase hard.

The Chu army did not speed up, as if he had accepted his fate.

The two sides are getting closer.

Farther away, there were Qing troops surrounding......

"Shoot the arrows!"

Suddenly, a wisp of smoke rose from the mountain forest.

Then, wisps of smoke and flames rose one after another.

The east wind, with the smoke, swooped down on the Qing army chasing from the west......

"They're setting fires!"

"Quick! Fire suppression! ”

"Catch up! Kill them......"

In the mountains and forests, a ball of flame rolled up the dead leaves on the ground and suddenly jumped up......

When this wildfire came, everyone underestimated its power.

When the flames encroach on the branches and ignite another tree in the wind, it suddenly turns into a huge flame that is difficult to extinguish!

The frightened birds flew suddenly, and countless animals sprang out of the trees......

The Qing army roared, some rushed forward to put out the fire, some rushed towards the Chu army, and some turned around and ran.

The next moment, the fire grew bigger......

The sky was filled with the sound of thunderbolts, mountain birds flapping their wings, wild beasts running, horses neighing.

The grease on the trunk bursts, and the air becomes hot.

The speed of the fire was so fast that when the east wind blew, a fiery dragon devoured the canopy......

Wang Xiao looked back, and suddenly thought of a sentence in his mind - whoever burns the mountain will be imprisoned.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

There was a vast smoke in the forest, and the thick smoke spread, and even countless coughs sounded among the Chu army.

"The fire is too big......"

"Run!"

At this moment, even the Chu army against the wind roared and rushed to the east.

Behind them, the wind fueled the fire, and countless Qing soldiers shouted......

~~

"Get on the horse!" Qin Chengye shouted.

Running a horse in the forest is a great test of equestrian skills, and if you are not careful, you will hit a tree, not to mention that at this time, the entire mountain forest is full of smoke, and you can only see your comrades around you within your sight.

But a fire has exposed their whereabouts, and there must be Qing soldiers surrounded in front of them, and it is time to go on horseback and fight.

From time to time, someone crashed into a tree and fell off the horse screaming......

Qin Chengye raised his knife, stared at the blurred figure in the smoke in front of him, and shouted, "Charge!" ”

"Kill!"

Horses were faster, and more people crashed into trees and fell to the ground.

"Shoot the arrows!"

The rain of arrows suddenly fell on Chu Cai, and planted many people......

Wang Xiaoben was in the middle of the team, his eyes were full of fierceness, and he had already made up his mind to die.

After sending Qin Xiaozhu away, he planned to let Yibo go.

"Scatter them!"

Wang Xiao didn't fire the gun, and his bullets were running out. He picked up a long knife and rushed forward with the military formation towards the Qing army in front......

~~

The final battle of the Battle of Liaodong kicked off at this sudden moment.

This time, the initiative was in the hands of the Chu army.

They tossed and turned in the encirclement, and under the command of Wang Xiao, they carried out tedious guerrilla tactics with outrageous patience, making Huang Taiji think that they would drag on any longer......

At this moment, the Qing army was already annoyed by the tactics they hated, but they were not mentally prepared for a decisive battle.

With a fire, the Chu army suddenly launched an offensive!

Even if you are encircled, even if the gap in forces is huge. Wang Xiao finally won back a slight advantage psychologically.

He did not have the luxury of victory, but he wanted to use this slight psychological advantage to cause the greatest damage to the Qing army......

~~

In the mountains and forests, the soldiers and horses of the two sides collided violently.

The Qing army was all foot soldiers.

They didn't expect the Chu army to dare to ride horses and gallop in such a dense forest, which was a fatal way to fight.

But after leaving behind many corpses, the horse charge still showed its power and strength, and smashed through the Qing army's line.

The Chu knight was so angry that the long knife slashed down!

Smoky,

The west side of the mountain forest is full of fire, and the east side of the mountain forest is killing and shouting and shaking the ground......

Suddenly.

"The Chu army is really here! Surround them! A loud shout came from the Qing army.

Wang Xiao was shocked.

Really?

- Huang Taiji even counted this point?

He only felt that the hand holding the knife trembled, and when he looked at it, he couldn't see for a moment how many people and horses the Qing army in the east was, but it was obviously more than estimated......
