Although he understood that the Ming army in front of him was definitely a strong force, Turg was not afraid.

You know, this is his territory, the Ming army came from the sea, and the troops are still less than him, if this is all afraid, it will be a big joke.

However, the situation in front of him still made him frown.

The location chosen by this Ming army to intercept was more unfavorable to him.

On his side, the two sides of the official road are narrow, which is not conducive to the deployment of large-scale troops. There is a large ridge in the north, and there is a mountain in the south, which just happened to be stuck.

On the other side of the Ming army, it was conducive to the deployment of troops.

However, on the opposite side is the Ningyuan Zhongzuo Institute, which has only about 1,000 troops, and not all of them are elite of the Qing Dynasty, so they definitely do not pose a threat to this Ming army.

Only if the Qing army on the Jinzhou side heard the news and rushed over, it would definitely be able to defeat this Ming army.

However, Ning Yuan is about 150 miles from Jinzhou, and even if the cavalry does not count the horsepower, it will take a day. In addition, it will take time for Ningyuan to rush to Jinzhou to report the news, and then Jinzhou will gather troops again, and finally come to Ningyuan's side, it will take at least three days, which is quite fast.

Thinking about this, Turg had a question: I don't know when the reinforcements of this Ming army will arrive?

Looking at the sea, the ships of the Ming Kingdom did not return to Juehua Island, but stopped at sea. Obviously, there should be no Ming troops coming over at sea.

Linked to the previous military emergency report, Turg dared to be sure that the reinforcements that this Ming army was waiting for should be the Ming army coming by land. The vanguard arrived at the side of Ningyuan's central right office, but it would take at least a day to wait for the main force of the Ming army to rush to Ningyuan's side!

If it's just some cavalry, then you really have to look down on the combat power of Ningyuan's Qing army!

Thinking of this, Turg probably knew it in his heart. Just in case, he had to defeat the Ming army blocking the road around noon tomorrow, and then return to the division to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Ming army that rushed to Ningyuan.

What is the time of day?

Thinking to himself, Turg looked up at the sky, and his heart was a little more stable. It's still early, and after the infantry army comes up, maybe they can defeat the Ming army in front of them before dark.

Even if the Ming army could not be defeated before dark, taking advantage of the cover of night, and the Ming army did not have complete camp fortifications, the possibility of a successful sneak attack at night was also very high.

In short, Turg feels that it should be no problem to defeat this Ming army before noon tomorrow, even if he is indeed an elite tour.

"It doesn't matter if you are not a good person or a good person is not coming, hehe!" Turge looked at the Ming soldiers on the opposite side with a cruel smile, and said to himself, "Since you have arrived at Lao Tzu's territory, it is the dragon that is coiled, and the tiger is lying down!" ”

After finishing speaking, he successively passed down military orders, while asking the cavalry to strengthen the harassment and containment of the Ming army, and at the same time ordering the infantry army behind to catch up as soon as possible.

With his order, the riders of the Mongolian Eight Banners galloped on horseback, harassing closer and closer to the Ming army's position, so that the power of the bow and arrow was much greater. Many arrows roared and landed on the side of the Ming army's side of the van.

On the side of the Ming army, they did not return fire. Most of the soldiers were some distance away from the side van on the west side and rested in the rear. The soldiers of the Ming army in front of them erected shields one by one to block the arrows that were shot over.

On the side of the Mongolian Eight Banners, several rounds of harassment and attacks, a lot of arrows were wasted, but they did not hit a few Ming soldiers, and they did not cause chaos in the Ming army at all.

Turg watched from behind, and his brow furrowed at the result. Then, he immediately instructed his guards: "Immediately rush back to Ningyuan City and transfer two general cannons over!" ”

He had a hunch that it was likely that after the infantry army came up, it would still not be able to break through the Ming army's defensive line. That being the case, he decided to bring in the cannons. Although it is a bit laborious, it is the best way to deal with the Ming army in front of you.

………………

Turge was observing the Ming army, and Ma Xianglin was of course also paying attention to Jianyu.

Jianyu's temptation just now also made him see clearly that the strength of Jianyu's cavalry is indeed very strong. Especially the riding archery is very powerful. And the leader of the Jianyu on the other side is also quite cautious, and he has only been tentative, and he has not done anything brutally.

Looking at these situations, he turned his head to look at a brocade-clothed guard beside him and said, "When the war starts later, I won't care about you." But remember, don't get in the way of my command! ”

The one who can make him talk like this is naturally a person with status, not only because it is as simple as Jinyi Wei Qianhu, but also because he is the commander of the guards around Xingguo Gong.

That's right, this person is Liu Jin, and after returning from Shandong, he was promoted to a thousand households.

This time, according to the confession of Xingguo Gong, Liu Jin took 300 selected flintlock muskezeers to fight with the army, and it was not under the control of Ma Xianglin.

At this time, when he heard Ma Xianglin say this, he just smiled slightly and didn't speak. I thought to myself, when the battle starts, I'll let you see how good I am!

He is very confident in this.

After seeing the situation of the western Jianyu for a while, Liu Jin said goodbye to Ma Xianglin and returned to the rear, where his three hundred men were all there.

Seeing him coming, a soldier asked him to fight: "Lord Qianhu, there are only a few people here, and they still want to come over to harass them, why don't you use them to practice?" ”

Liu Jin listened, looked up at the outside of the side car, it was the Jianyu of Ning Yuanzhongzuo, and there were hundreds of riders feintting.

In this regard, he just smiled faintly and said: "Why, you still don't have confidence in yourself?" ”

"No, it's just itchy hands!" When the soldier heard this, he hurriedly replied.

Hearing his words, the robe who was resting next to him burst into laughter. It's as if they're not alone in the crackdown, they're training peacetime.

This situation made these soldiers who were drawn from the Guanning army secretly surprised in their hearts.

When will there be such a big change in the mentality of the imperial court officials and soldiers towards Shang Jianyu?

When I think about it in my heart, there are many people who realize that it is because they have confidence, and the confidence is different!

Liu Jin also laughed when he heard this, then turned his head to look at the situation of Jianyu in the direction of Ningyuan, and then turned back to look at his subordinates and said, "Have a good rest, wait for the Jianyu infantry army to come up in a while, and the big war will begin!" ”

The light cavalry could not attack the fortification, even if it was only a defensive line composed of partial vans, and there were piles of wood, the cavalry could not directly rush to the partial vans, and they could not rely on the light cavalry to attack the Ming army's position. Both sides know this.

Therefore, later, Ma Xianglin no longer even paid attention to the Jianlu cavalry, but ordered his subordinates to hurry up to the seaside, at least to bring some medium artillery over.

………………

It didn't even take about half an hour before the dense Jianyu infantry army finally arrived. Led by the Han army, the red flag Maile Ezhen Meng Qiaofang.

This Meng Qiaofang was once the deputy general of the Ming Army, but he was later convicted of the incident and dismissed from office and stayed at home. As a result, when Chongzhen attacked Yongping Mansion at the beginning of the third year, he surrendered with 15 people, including Zhang Yangchu, the county governor, Bai Yangcui, the deputy general Yang Wenkui, and the guerrilla Yang Shengyuan. Yeongpyeongfu, an important capital city in Gyeonggi, surrendered directly without a fight.

Later, because Meng Qiaofang had been the deputy general of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the commonly known deputy commander-in-chief, Zu Dashou secretly sent someone to see Meng Qiaofang, wanting to find out the whereabouts of Jianyu. As a result, this Meng Qiaofang tied up the people sent by Zu Dashou and directly dedicated them to Huang Taiji in exchange for credit.

When he rushed over to see Turg, he first looked at the Ming army on the opposite side. Subsequently, when he saw Turge, he immediately patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, my lord, the Ming army has eaten the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and thousands of people and horses have rushed to block the road." The villain immediately arranged to break the camp of the Ming army! ”

When Turg heard this, he said with a serious face: "Don't underestimate, the Ming army on the other side is elite, and there is a white pole army in the army!" ”

When Meng Qiaofang heard this, she was taken aback, so she didn't speak immediately, and immediately focused on the situation of the Ming army again.

After a while, he really made another discovery, and then he turned back to Turg and said, "Don't worry, my lord, the White Pole Army is a thing of the past. Now there are many firearms in our Qing army, and it is no longer the enemy of the white-pole army! ”

When Turg heard it, he thought about it for a while, and it seemed to be the same.

In the previous bloody battles of the Hunhe River, in fact, if it was only the Qi family army or just the white pole army, it did not have such strong combat power. However, as soon as these two arms were combined, there were firearms in the distance and the white-pole army in the distance, which caused the Dajin army, which had no firearms at that time, to suffer heavy losses.

And since the current emperor ascended the throne, he has always attached great importance to firearms. In today's Qing army, there are not only firecrackers, but also red-clothed cannons. At least in terms of firearms, it was not inferior to the Ming army's side.

Meng Qiaofang reminded him that Turge's confidence suddenly improved a lot, and he said to him: "Okay, let go and fight, the cavalry will sweep the battle for you." Just tear a hole open, and you're done! ”

"The villain obeys!" When Meng Qiaofang heard this, she immediately threw her sleeves again and knelt on the ground, looking happy.

The Qing Dynasty had 10,000 infantry troops and 5,000 cavalry troops, while the Ming army only had 10,000 infantry troops, and it was still a temporary car battalion. This kind of military strength comparison, he is very sure in his heart.

As for what white pole army, hehe, what age is this!

After returning to his army, Meng Qiaofang immediately arranged it. Because of the terrain, in the first battle, he only sent about a thousand people.

Among them, there are firecrackers, archers, and sword and shield soldiers. Pushing one cart after another, he began to attack the Ming army.

Jianyu's car is the killer weapon used to break the formation in Meng Qiaofang's hands.

The vertical shields of these chariots are made of thick wooden planks covered with cowhide and iron sheets. In this way, the small masonry does not move, the big masonry rolls down, and the firewood is not burned, and it has a strong defensive force.

Ordinary firearms, in the face of this kind of car, cannot penetrate the car. Therefore, it is equivalent to moving huge shields, which can cover Jianyu to calmly approach the Ming army and then attack.
