Chapter 115: The Eight Banners are nothing more than that

These heavy infantry subordinate to Geng Zhongming were already moving slowly, and now the horse team was completely dumpled as soon as they ran, Liu Yongxi's cavalry was not in a hurry to clean them up, but after repeated bombardment with bows and arrows and bird guns, they launched an attack with great interest, but after only one round, these heavy infantry completely collapsed and knelt on the ground and surrendered.

But it was Wu Zhaosheng's main force of the Green Battalion that collapsed earlier, these Qing troops didn't know where to come out of such a brave and powerful Ming army, especially when they saw Niu Lu Ezhen Ashan's Eight Banners Horse Team, they couldn't resist and turned around and fled, these newly attached green battalion soldiers did not hesitate to rout on all fronts, and the speed of escape far exceeded Xing Shengping's expectations.

Although Xing Shengping personally led the team to chase and kill, the speed of the green battalion soldiers fled too fast, Wu Zhaosheng fled in a hurry with at least half of the green battalion soldiers, and Xing Shengping only captured more than 300 prisoners.

Although this battle was not completely won, Xing Shengping was so excited that he almost fell off his horse: "Jianyu is nothing more than this, and the elite of the Eight Banners is nothing more than that!"

Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing also cheered the same: "The Eight Banners Horse Team turned out to be such a level, but so, but so!"

In fact, even Wu Zhaosheng's green battalion of this Qing army can be called an elite force, and the combat power of the old Ming army in the new military system of the Qing Dynasty can be described as a new look, and it can be said that it is an incredible performance to be able to hold on to the present under the attack of Linhuai Town

And the situation on Liu Yongxi's horse team's side is even more embarrassing.

The total number of horses put into the battlefield in Linhuai Town is almost 700 horsemen, and the total strength of Niu Lu Ezhen Ashan is only more than 200 people, and the main force participating in the battle is still Geng Zhongming's department, and some of them are new troops recruited by Geng Zhongming after entering the customs, but until Niu Lu Ezhen Ashan withdrew from the battlefield, the casualties on both sides were almost equal.

The gap between the two sides in cavalry can be said to be more than one grade worse, but the officers and soldiers around Liu Yongxi feel that they have won an unprecedented victory.

After all, the history of Liu Yongxi's horse team was established less than a year, and the cavalry under Niu Lu Ezhen Ashan often had experience in fighting horses for a few years, more than ten years or even more than twenty years, and their riding skills and fighting skills were far better than those of the Linhuai Town horse team.

But no matter how many advantages and disadvantages the Qing army has, the final winner is Linhuai Town, they not only contained more than 200 defeated troops, but also defeated the Qing army's Eight Banners and completely controlled the battlefield!

Eight Flags Stronghold, but that's it!

Before this vicious battle, the officers and soldiers generally feared the enemy, and they all felt that the Eight Banners were invincible and invincible, and all of them were monsters with three heads and six arms, and after this battle, although the officers and soldiers admitted that the Eight Banners armor soldiers were the best soldiers in the world, much stronger than Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo, but they had a feeling of "but so"!

It turns out that the Eight Banners will be beaten to the ground, and the Eight Banners will also be defeated!

Although the main force participating in the war was Wu Zhaosheng's green battalion soldiers, the officers and soldiers regarded the Qing army participating in the war as a strong force of the Eight Banners, and the original fear of the enemy and pessimism were all gone, and they all boasted to themselves: "Those who have retired are our own brothers, and we must take in all the brothers who have retired from Xuzhou!"

Although there were quite a lot of casualties in Linhuai Town in this battle, considering the remaining several Gaojie troops that had been contained before, everyone did not feel that there was much loss but felt that they had made a lot of money, and Mrs. Xing immediately encouraged everyone loudly: "That's right, it is said that the Eight Banners are invincible in the world, but after trying it today, I know that it is just like this, this time everyone uses more strength, I will definitely not treat everyone badly!" ”

Now she is the arrogant Mrs. Xing again!

Liu Yongxi also felt that such Mrs. Xing was very beautiful: "If you hear what Mrs. means, let's try the quality of this Eight Banners team!" ”

If after this victory, Linhuai Town had an extreme fear of the enemy for the Eight Banners Force, then after really seeing the combat effectiveness of the Qing army, Linhuai Town became extremely disciplined, and there were six or seven more contacts with the Qing army in the next two or three days.

The scale of these six or seven contacts is not like the main force that directly mobilized thousands of people in the battle with Wu Zhaosheng, and the troops invested by both sides did not exceed 1,000 people.

Prince Yu Duoduo felt that he underestimated Linhuai Town, although he felt that he had attached enough importance to Liu Yongxi, the sincere prince, but no one expected that this Liu Yongxi would dare to openly challenge the Eight Banners on the battlefield.

Duoduo didn't care how many men and horses were lost in a few battles, because recently many Ming troops came to surrender, including even the main field force of the Ming army, and now the army under Duoduo has increased more than 100,000 people, and Shandong's Gushan Ezhen Zhun Tower has also launched a counteroffensive in response, and it doesn't matter whether the loss of 300 men or 500 men and horses is in this situation.

But what really shocked Duoduo was that Linhuai Town didn't take the Qing Dynasty in his eyes at all, regardless of victory or defeat or a draw, the Qing army paid a lot of price, if the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Southern Ming Dynasty were allowed to establish this kind of self-confidence, I am afraid that this southern expedition will end in vain.

And Xu Er'an, the eldest son of Xu Dingguo, who was the next head, was even more excited: "King Yu, for Liu Yongxi, the thief, you must not raise a tiger for trouble, and today the Yangzhou defenders will attack under the banner of Liu Yongxi and Linhuai Town!" ”

Although Xu Er'an didn't say the final outcome of the battle, Duoduo knew that the specific outcome was that the Qing army fought more ugly, and even if it won, it would suffer a lot of losses, so he asked with great concern: "Liu Yongxi's soldiers and horses have rushed to Yangzhou City?" How many people arrived? ”

Geng Zhongming, who was on the other side of the next head, immediately explained what was going on: "Shi Kefa in Yangzhou City was not a problem, but because Liu Yongxi, a thief, sent nearly a thousand reinforcements into the city and sheltered a lot of Gao Jie's remnants, the situation is different now!" ”

Duoduo only cared about one question: "Liu Yongxi's main force in Linhuai Town hasn't arrived in Yangzhou City yet, right?" ”

Xu Er'an cares more about Liu Yongxi, the enemy who killed his father, than anyone else: "The main force of Liu Thief has not yet arrived in Yangzhou!" ”

Duoduo is most worried that tens of thousands of troops in Linhuai Town have rushed to Yangzhou City, plus the defenders in the city to defend the city together, although Duoduo has more than 60 red-clothed cannons to help the battle, but to take Yangzhou City will also pay the price of blood, and now since the main force of Linhuai Town has not arrived in Yangzhou City, it is an excellent opportunity for Duoduo: "Order the following to act as soon as possible, Boluo, Yangzhou City will be handed over to you!" ”

Gushan Beizi also felt that this was a great opportunity to make a contribution: "King Yu, just one Yangzhou will be handed over to me, you let go and deal with Liu Yongxi, this little thief!" ”
