The battle of Shaoxingfu, at this time, tactically speaking, the Qing army did not lose, and naturally it cannot be said to be defeated.

Even if the Qing army in the three directions of the invasion of Shaoxing Mansion was all repelled by Wu Zheng, the Qing army would have to retreat to Ningbo, because the battlefield of this battle was in Shaoxing Mansion and Jinhua Mansion, and the Qing army had no additional losses except casualties.

As for casualties, the two armies had their own casualties, and naturally they could not be used as a reason to judge victory or defeat.

However, strategically speaking, the Qing army was indeed defeated at this time.

Because the two directions of Shaoxing City and Pinggang Mountain have been resolved by Wu Zheng, only Lihai is still fighting fiercely, and Duoduo's strategic goal of occupying Shaoxing Mansion has been ironclad and cannot be achieved.

Therefore, Duoduo was very sensitive to lead his troops to retreat to Lihai and join the Qing army in Lihai.

This is indeed wise, once the two directions of Shaoxing City and Pinggang Mountain are encircled to Lihai, there is no need for much, and there are thousands of people in each direction.

The Lihai Qing army will fall into a situation where it is surrounded on three sides and it is difficult to support it alone.

In fact, Duoduo already wanted to retreat.

Perhaps this is the most "decent" step for both sides of this war.

According to Wu Zheng's careful thinking, I really don't want to fight, this battle, the entire cavalry battalion was annihilated, bringing 3,000 Hangzhou Wei, the casualties have exceeded 40%, and the musketeers have also lost 20%, and the casualties of Lihaiwei, Jinshanwei, and Yanzhouwei are not yet known, and it will naturally not be small.

If Duoduo really planned to retreat like this, Wu Zheng was actually optimistic.

But all of this changed because of one thing.

This matter, in fact, is not a big deal according to the current situation.

At least it is not yet possible to decide whether the Yixing Dynasty and the Qing court will fight or not.

But for Wu Zheng, it is an untouchable bottom line.

More than 300 farmers in Wuzhuang were taken captive!

Duoduo didn't want to slaughter these peasants originally, he just wanted to use this as a threat in exchange for the Qing army in Shaoxing City.

So when he left from Baiguan and retreated to Lihai, Duoduo took these more than 300 people with him.

When Wu Zheng rushed to the hundred officials, the hundred officials passed the verdict.

Hearing that the people had been taken captive, Wu Zheng was furious.

When he woke up, he made an oath to "protect the people around him", these farmers were the people rescued by Wu Zheng from Jinshanwei at that time, some of them were settled in Lihai to fish for a living, and some of them were placed in Wuzhuang to farm for a living.

But now, they are being dragged into their own hands.

Wu Zheng immediately ordered the naval divisions that had entered the Cao'e River to shell the Qing army in Lihai.

At the same time, the whole army was gathered and the pursuit of Duoduo was pursued.

……。

From Wu Zheng's departure from Pinggang Mountain to the decision of the hundred officials, it was actually only two days.

That is to say, Li Ruhai led Lihaiwei to attack and launch a strong attack on the Lihai Qing army, which also took two days.

The battle was fiercely fought, but it was also the most unproductive.

In all major wars, in fact, the victory or defeat is not in the main confrontation, that is, a war of attrition, unless the morale of one side collapses or the soldiers are killed and wounded, it is almost impossible to determine the victory or defeat.

The real victory or defeat is determined by the changes in the battle situation, such as the partial division and the encirclement, the supply of grain and grass, the change of time and place, and so on.

The shelling of the sailors is not of much use.

Artillery had already been deployed at the Lihai Pass, and the Qing army also had several artillery pieces.

Mutual shelling had already taken place when the Qing army blocked the road for Lihaiwei to send troops.

But the flowering bullet can only hit three or four miles, and it can't be reached at all, so you can only choose a solid bullet.

The power of this solid bullet can be imagined, roaring away, landing with a "bang", and then relying on the powerful potential energy, it can cause some physical damage.

To put it simply, the casualties of the Qing army caused by the two days of shelling and thousands of projectiles were probably less than 100.

At a time when human lives are as cheap as paper, these lives are not even as valuable as these thousands of projectiles and gunpowder.

Li Ruhai and his Li Haiwei really fought hard.

But hard work does not mean that they can break through and make achievements, the Qing army has already built a defense line and withstood the strong attack of Lihaiwei.

In terms of casualties on both sides, Lihaiwei is probably much more than the Qing army, because Lihaiwei is attacking.

But all this is quietly changing.

Dodor was already thinking of withdrawing his troops.

Since there is no hope of achieving the goal, what good is it to continue fighting?

Duoduo now only hopes that there will be a breakthrough in Jinhua Mansion, so it will not be too embarrassing to start this war by himself, and he can also give an explanation to the Qing court.

Therefore, as soon as he arrived in Lihai, Duoduo began to shrink his forces, preparing to gradually break away from Lihaiwei's contact.

But what Duoduo didn't expect was that Li Ruhai was different from what he thought, Li Ruhai was attacking.

Assault is a tactical term.

It means an offensive regardless of casualties.

This is different from the routine of the two sides arranging troops, forward to forward, and partial division to defend the two wings.

In the right combination, to be precise, it can be classified as a feint.

Because they can always use the flanks to cover the forward, the center retreats.

But at this time, Li Ruhai's strong attack was different, it was an attack of the whole army, and there were no flanks.

This became the decisive battle.

The decisive battle will not stop regardless of victory or defeat, and will not stop until the death.

The Qing army could not withdraw, unless Duoduo was worthy of surviving with a broken arm, and nearly fifty percent of the Qing army was used as cannon fodder behind the palace, otherwise, the Qing army would not be able to leave when the two armies were stubbornly biting and biting.

It did make it difficult for Dordor to choose, and he knew that his time was running out.

If Wu Zheng really went to Shaoxing City as he expected, then Shaoxing City would definitely not be guaranteed.

What followed was the encirclement of the Ming army.

But Duoduo was reluctant to break his arm to survive, and he even thought that he could defeat the Ming army on the opposite side before Wu Zheng arrived.

Half a day, the time that Duoduo gave himself was half a day.

Thus, the decisive battle between the two sides finally began.

It is not wrong to say that it is a decisive battle between the two sides.

Previously, the Qing army had been attacking and defending with Lihaiwei based on the constructed positions.

But at this time, the Qing army began to take the initiative.

So, it's a life-and-death decisive battle.

As I said before, the two armies are at war, each arranging their own troops, the striker against the forward, why is it the striker against the forward?

Because the strikers are well equipped, all the best equipment is concentrated in the strikers.

Half-human tall vertical shields, the strongest armor, the sharpest swords, and so on.

So, it looks the most dangerous, but in fact it has the least casualties.

But the decisive battle is different, everyone, a whole front fights with each other, there is no difference between the forward, the middle army, and the rear formation.

Casualties skyrocketed, and it was a slaughterhouse.

Every time the knife is swung, it can kill, and every step can step on the "cooing" sound of blood and mud.

After an hour of hard resistance, the front began to loosen.

There's nothing wrong with that.

In the combat of individual soldiers, whether in terms of physical fitness or technical tactics, the Lihaiwei soldiers are indeed inferior to these Eight Banner soldiers from outside the pass to inside the pass.

Not to mention the veterans of a hundred battles under the command of Duoduo.

Chen Sheng was on the city tower observing the battle situation with a telescope, and his heart at this time was as anxious as fire.

Chen Sheng has always refused to lead Li Haiwei to attack, and what he is worried about is the scene in front of him.
