Dare to fight to win!

The soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army dared to fight, which was actually the release of a sense of national pride in their hearts.

It has been suppressed for a long time, and once it erupts, its power is infinite.

Wu Zheng has been preaching, encouraging, and indulging this kind of national pride, because in terms of physique, it is a fact that northerners are stronger than southerners, and people nourished by the poor mountains and bad water environment are naturally stronger than southerners who live a relatively comfortable life.

This is also since the end of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court needs to use three, five or even ten times the strength to defend the Liaoxi Corridor, and in the end it still dies because of inferior skills.

The Northeast region has a natural topographic barrier, there are large Guang'an Mountains on the left, small Xing'an Mountains on the right, and Changbai Mountains in the south, which forms a narrow pocket shape, and the Central Plains Dynasty wants to enter the Northeast Plain, only a single-plank bridge in the western Liaoning corridor.

In the history of China for several years, only the Tang, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties included the northeast region under the jurisdiction of the unified power of the Central Plains.

But the Yuan itself was a Mongol, and the Qing started from the northeast, which is not enough for analogy.

That is to say, for thousands of years, only the Tang and Ming dynasties really controlled and stationed liuguan to rule the northeast.

Even if he was a strong man, he only expanded to the Western Regions and did not set foot in the Northeast.

The rest of the dynasties were not only unable to enter the northeast, but were harassed by the attacks of the ethnic minorities in the northeast from beginning to end, and suffered unspeakably.

The main reason for this is that the geographical environment of the Northeast is restricted, not to mention the long distance, thousands of troops, only one road, once the army moves, it will be intercepted along the way, there is no possibility of a surprise attack, but it is the Later Jin Emperor Taiji, united with the Mongols to launch a thousand-mile attack on Linghe City, and defeated the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop to build the defense line of Linghe City.

The physique of the northerners is congenitally stronger than that of the southerners, and they do not occupy the land and are not as strong as the people, so it will be difficult to enter the northeast.

The Tang and Ming dynasties did it.

The Tang Dynasty has the Black Water Protectorate, and the Ming Dynasty has the Nuer Cadre Division, so the beautiful words of the Tang Dynasty and the strong Ming are by no means vain.

It is a pity that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the combat strength of the Ming army declined rapidly, and it has been defeated, from Yizhou (Daling River), constantly retreating south, Jinzhou, Songshanbao, Jinxi, Ningyuan, until Suizhong and Shanhaiguan.

The loss of every city and key pass has a bloody battle and countless undead.

When the Qing army entered the customs, the Ming army was almost invincible, and there was a strange thing that the Qing army dared to attack the capital city brazenly.

Therefore, Wu Zheng has always "connived" at the officers and soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army without leaving prisoners, this is not because Wu Zheng is barbaric and thirsty for killing, but the "fear of Manchuria" of the southerners at this time, it is definitely not something that can be reversed by listening to the good news, only if you have killed it with your own hands, can you be fearless!

At this time, although the Northern Expeditionary Army was facing not all the Manchurian Banner Army, most of them were Han Banner Army from the north.

Although these Han banner troops are the skins of the Han people, they have long denied that they are Han people, and they are more ferocious than the Manchu people.

The Northern Expeditionary Army was fearless, and the two guards of Taizhou and Wusong fought to this day, with no less than a dozen fierce battles of all sizes.

Listen!

Already a soldier has detonated a grenade on his waist.

The gap that was blown out was instantly flooded by the crowd.

But with the first, there will be the second, and the power of example is endless!

Dare to die to live! This is what Wu Zheng emphasized again and again when he gave a speech to the recruits at the military academy, but at this time, Wu Zheng himself put down the binoculars and turned his head.

Four or five years have passed, and soldiers are still needed to sacrifice in this way, and Wu Zheng feels guilty in his heart.

He couldn't help but scold, "Xiao Anzi, if you don't come again, the young master will kick your ass!" ”

……。

As mentioned before, the topography of Pei County is unique, facing water in the east and south, Surabaya in the east and Pao River in the south.

There is a bridge on the Pao River - Feiyun Bridge, which has already been broken by the Northern Expeditionary Army at this time.

But there is no bridge on Surabaya, and there is no east gate in Pei County.

Therefore, when Dolgon strengthened the city wall of Peixian, he only strengthened the south gate and the south city wall, and the west and north directions were originally occupied by the Qing army, so it was naturally impossible for the enemy to appear.

Because of this, Wu Zheng thought of an opportunity to take advantage of.

That is to ask Song An to gather Xuzhou Chang Lin Wei, recruit the locals as guides, and give Song An 300 people and some tiger squatting cannons, so that Song An quietly detoured eastward, crossed from Surabaya, and attacked the eastern city of Pei County.

If it is a fucheng, this amount of troops is definitely not enough, but Peixian is originally a small city with low walls, as long as it can cross Surabaya smoothly, it can take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to carry out a surprise attack on the eastern city.

The reason why Wu Zheng dared to fight this kind of war of attrition at this time was to hold back the enemy and create an opportunity for Song An to lead his troops to raid Dongcheng.

Chen Jin probably never dreamed that Wu Zheng would use this kind of "three rotten" methods, he even transferred the defenders on the city wall out of the city and launched a fierce blow against the Northern Expeditionary Army, how could he take into account the direction of Dongcheng, where there would never be an enemy army?

However, as if hearing the scolding in Wu Zheng's stomach, Song An led his army to finally launch an attack in Dongcheng.

When the battle in Nanmen City was the most fierce and cruel, and when Chen Jin's heart ignited the hope of turning defeat into victory, Song An led his troops to attack Dongcheng.

Almost without any interception by the formed enemy army, Song An led 300 Northern Expeditionary Army and more than 100 Changlin Guards to the eastern city wall.

At this time, Chen Jin's heart was broken.

The enemy turned out to have appeared from the most unlikely place.

Looking at the front of the fierce battle, Chen Jin made a decision, divided his troops to defend, and transferred the defenders on the original city wall back.

The establishment of the Qing army is quite unclear, such as sword soldiers and spearmen, archers and archers, the arms are interchangeable, that is to say, the upper cavalry is cavalry, the lower horse is infantry, and you can also make a cameo appearance as a crossbowman, which is completely different from the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Of course, this is not meant to be demeaning, on the contrary, it shows that the individual skills of the Qing army are very comprehensive, but often the advantages and disadvantages are relative.

For example, the soldiers of the Qing army often rushed forward frantically after the start of the war, and admired personal martial arts, but if they were beaten in the head, their morale would drop very quickly, and in short, they were accustomed to fighting a good fight.

They disdained the formation and cooperation of the Ming army, until the Qing army entered the customs, and countless Ming generals surrendered to the Qing, and the Qing army still looked down on the Han people's art of war.

But think about it, no matter how good the art of war is, it will not be defeated by them.

But at this time, Chen Jin transferred crossbowmen back to the city wall to block Song Anbu from Dongcheng, and the troops transferred were not many.

Because of the tight front, the two sides have become a stalemate, and the mobilized crossbow soldiers are actually the reserves of the Qing army, and they bear the responsibility of going up as soon as there is a gap in the front somewhere.

Since the number of Northern Expeditionary troops entering the city is small, perhaps this reserve force can be transferred to the city wall to block the enemy entering the city, and the lesser of two evils can be used to calm the morale of the army.
