The Qing army was shouting wildly, galloping on horseback, and from time to time firing arrows, throwing javelins, or slashing at the trapped officers and soldiers, and in their opinion, this officer army was already a turtle in an urn and a fish in a kettle. 【Latest chapter reading. But at this moment, suddenly there was a loud sound of killing behind him, and countless cavalry rushed over, divided into three teams, and killed the camp.

Dolgon received a report that the commander of the coalition army, Bai Qi, had arrived with tens of thousands of cavalry to rescue the trapped officers. Dolgon sneered and ordered 10,000 cavalry to continue to attack Ma Jinzhong's men, and the rest of the Qing army turned around to meet Bai Qi.

Nearly 50,000 Qing cavalry stood out from the camp and rushed towards the coalition army.

Bai Qi could see clearly in the Chinese army, these Qing soldiers were fierce and abnormal, their faces were full of murderous energy, like hungry wolves, and when they rushed over, they really did not divide the formation, and the soldiers did not have iron armor on their bodies, and they were like a desperate assault.

In several battles at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the official army and the Qing army were all defeated, the main reason was that the Qing army was too fierce, the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry was extremely fierce, all of them were warriors who were not afraid of death, and they rushed hard as soon as they went into battle, and most of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were not killed, but were knocked down and trampled to death.

The ferocity of the cavalry is the common denominator of the nomadic people, their warriors grew up on horseback since childhood, and the man and the horse are almost one, and the Central Plains army, which is dominated by infantry, naturally cannot compete with it. Defeated the nomads, in thousands of years of history only a few times, the Qin army defeated the Xiongnu, decades later Wei Qinghuo to the disease to completely defeat it, and then Cao C north attack Wuhuan, and then until the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army defeated the Mongols, and these victories, without exception, followed the same law, that is, cavalry against cavalry.

All the famous generals understood that the only way to defeat the steppe tribes was to have a strong Han Chinese cavalry. And this has been confirmed as early as the Warring States period.

During the Warring States period, there were two countries that defeated the Xiongnu, namely Qin and Zhao, and the cavalry of these two countries was extremely strong.

Bai Qi did not participate in the battle against the Xiongnu, but at that time, the combat effectiveness of the six countries of Shandong was no worse than that of the Huns. And Bai Qi has never been afraid of the Huns in his life, in his opinion, whether it is the Huns or the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, as long as they go to the battlefield, they are a bunch of lambs to be slaughtered under him.

Because the Qin army was the most powerful at that time.

Two thousand years later, Bai Qi still believes this.

Today was the first time he commanded the Qin army and the Qing army, and success or failure was crucial. If this battle is lost, not only will the coalition army become the laughing stock of the world, but the halo of a famous general on his head will also disappear. Therefore, Bai Qi was very cautious, he carefully observed the men and horses of the Qing army, thinking like lightning in his head, and figuring out their tactics and tactics.

The Qing army is not like the Guanning Iron Cavalry, up is a fire gun, first give you a dismount, the Qing army's strength is similar to the previous Huns, are very good archery, break through the point accurately, often hit the opponent's vital parts, in the blink of an eye, it will break through the enemy formation, and then divide it, as long as a few times through C, the opponent's camp will be a mess, the end is difficult to echo, each other can not rescue, and finally is divided into pieces of eaten.

In addition, the horses of the Qing army were excellent, fast and had stronger endurance.

The men and horses of both sides converged and began to fight.

Bai Qi immediately found that although the lineup of the Qing army was scattered when they rushed over, this seemed to be a trap, because as soon as they handed it over, those Qing soldiers would immediately find their leaders and gather around him to form a commando, and these leaders also knew very well where to rush, so all the Qing troops looked like swarms of headless flies, rushing around, but if you take a closer look, they are actually quite organized. Between the teams, there is also echo and cooperation. Often, as soon as one centaur came out, another burst in like lightning, and the average team was scattered after these two assaults.

Bai Qi understood that such a tactic could be displayed in actual combat, and it must have undergone strict training in peacetime.

He guessed right, the Qing army grew up outside Liaodong, where there were packs of wild wolves, and many of their tactics were learned from the collective hunting of wild wolves.

When dozens of wolves rounded up the herd of cattle and horses, they would go back and forth in the herd of cattle and horses to make a feint, first separating some weak cattle and horses from the herd, and then the evil wolves rushed forward, surrounded by groups, attacked from all sides, and all mouths were together, and the cattle and horses could be bitten down and killed immediately.

The Qing army likes large-scale battles the most, and the more people on the battlefield, the more chaotic they are, the more comfortable they are, because they have wolf-like eyes and feelings, know where the enemy's vital points are, and know how to attack these vital points.

Bai Qi understood this, and couldn't help but smile coldly, although he had no experience in fighting with the Xiongnu, but the Qin army always had to have someone stationed in the northern Xinjiang, many of those generals had fought with the Xiongnu for generations, Bai Qi had repeatedly asked them for advice on the tactics and countermeasures of the Huns, at this time, although two thousand years have passed, but the Qing army's combat methods are still not much different from the Huns.

Therefore, Bai Qi looked at it for a while, and he had a bamboo in his chest.

He called Li Yan and Yizhimei over and instructed: "Pass the order, our army will assemble and form a formation to defend itself." ”

Li Yan was taken aback: "Forming a formation to defend yourself? Isn't that just beaten? The Qing army is so flexible and mobile, we ......"

Bai Qi waved his hand, didn't let him continue, and ordered: "You go to Li Guo's army and tell them to withdraw first, and General Mei will go to Zhang Huangyan and let him withdraw too." ”

Yizhimei was shocked: "They have all withdrawn, leaving our Qin army here to resist the enemy alone?" ”

Bai Qi said: "Exactly, I want to be here and drag all the Qing soldiers and horses." After the Qing army is all surrounded, you can see my signal, as long as I light the wolf smoke, you will follow Li Guo and Zhang Huangyan's men and horses to kill again. In that way, our Qin army is in the middle and you are outside, and you will be able to win by attacking from both sides. ”

Li Yan frowned and said, "Can this work?" ”

Bai Qi said: "The advantage of the Qing army is that it is too mobile, even if we can win, we can't kill or injure many of them, and it won't take a moment or a half for the Qing army to assemble again." If we want to weaken the mobility of the Qing army, we must let them surround each other, and if we want to let them surround each other, we must first form a group and let them surround and fight. ”

Yizhimei said: "This plan is good, but it is too dangerous, it is better for me to stay, and the general will go to order the armies." ”

Bai Qi said: "If I leave, the Qin army will lose morale, don't fight, the military order is like a mountain, go quickly." ”

The red lady said on the side: "But general, if these two groups don't listen to us and flee from the battle, won't they trap our Qin army." ”

Bai Qi smiled and said: "So I let Li Gongzi go to the Dashun army, and let Miss Mei go to Zhang Huangyan's army." Li Gongzi and Li Guo have a good relationship, while Miss Mei and Zhang Huangyan have a good relationship, haha...... I'm sure they'll do what they do. ”

Yizhimei's face turned red, she thought that Bai Qi was not aware of this, but at this time, she still couldn't hide Bai Qi's eyes.

Li Yan was still worried: "General, if you fight like this, our army will suffer a lot of casualties, how will we fight the next battle?" Bai Qi sneered: "There is no next battle, and the commander will finish his work in one battle." ”

After the discussion was decided, Li Yan and Yizhimei each brought a small team of cavalry and went to deliver the order.

As expected, as expected, as soon as the military ordered, Li Guo and Zhang Huangyan each retreated with their men and horses.

The Qing army wanted to pursue, but seeing that there were still many Qin troops on the battlefield, they became lone at this time and were forming a formation to defend themselves. The Qing army liked to fight this kind of battle the most, as long as the opponent began to defend, it was a harbinger of destruction. Therefore, tens of thousands of iron horsemen turned back and besieged Bai Qi.

At this time, Bai Qi commanded, erected a handsome flag, and ordered all the horses to resist desperately.

The Qin army knew that Bai Qi sent Li Yan and Yizhimei to pass on the general's order, presumably Bai Qi already had a clever plan, so he did not panic, because they were all cavalry, so they were not as slow as the infantry, and after forming a formation, they sent several teams of cavalry from time to time to fight with the Qing army that rushed up.

Seeing that Bai Qi was trapped, Dolgon was extremely excited, and personally supervised the battle in the rear, at this time Hong Chengchou ran to his side and shouted: "Lord Wang, Bai Qi is alone against the enemy, is there a trick that can't be done?" Dolgon sneered: "Sun Chuanting's men and horses and the thieves' men and horses have already fled, and the Qin army has combat effectiveness, and it is exactly what I want to fight with our army." As long as the Qin army and Bai Qi are destroyed, those thieves and horses will not be swept away. ”

Hong Chengchou said: "It's better to be careful, do you want to send men and horses to pursue the invading army?" lest they turn back and slew them. ”

Dolgon looked at Hong Chengchou and felt that this person was very careful, but this suggestion was also good, because what he was worried about at this time was not the tens of thousands of thieves, but the large group of people behind. Who knows how long Wu Sangui will be able to entangle them?

So he nodded: "Okay, send 5,000 cavalry, follow the rout, and if there is a large group of thieves killed, report immediately." ”

Dorgon sent an adjutant with 5,000 men and horses to pursue the router.

After fighting here for a while, the Qing army felt that the Qin army was really powerful, much stronger than the peasant army that had fought before, many people in the Qin army had iron armor, and the archery skills were also good, and under S, the Qing army would suffer, because they were only leather armor.

Not only that, but the tactics of the Qin army were also very flexible, although they were trapped in the middle, they did not defend to the death, but took turns to attack, so that they could not only maintain the physical strength of men and horses, but also take care of the wounded. So after fighting for nearly half an hour, the Qing army still didn't take any advantage.

By this time, no matter how strong the Qing army was, it was a little tired.
