The battle at Chemadian proceeded exactly according to the battle plan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Tuha and Ekui led the hussars, pretending to be the white flag troops of the Eight Banners of the Qing Army who were passing by, and entered the core of the defensive position of Chemadian in a grand manner, and quietly controlled the pontoon bridge.

At the sound of an order, more than 1,000 hussars moved in unison, killing or capturing the Qing troops guarding the pontoon bridge and nearby fortresses and artillery positions. Unexpectedly, a snowy steel knife was placed on the neck, and the soldiers who followed behind him exclaimed, but they were pointed at the door by six or seven short fire guns.

"If you don't want to die, just give it to Lao Tzu!"

Supported by Zuo Wuwei's powerful artillery fire, Ekui and Tuha used their original fortifications to block the Qing reinforcements who had rushed to try to recapture the Chemadian pontoon bridge.

Once again, the battlefield of the carriage and horse shop has become a huge meat grinder, a flesh and blood workshop. However, this time, it was put into the mill and crushed by the Qing army, in front of which were the solid fortifications built by themselves, and when they were built, they were afraid that they would not be strong enough to defend against the artillery fire of the attacking side, and now, they had to gnaw down the strong fortresses and the trenches that ran through the connecting fortresses. Overhead, from time to time, there were shells that suddenly smashed into the impact formation, constantly jumping and jumping in the formation, happily taking away people's limbs.

In the morning light, the artillery team commanded by Zuo Wuwei used pulley groups to load heavy mortar shells into place, and then, with the fireworks rising in the distance calling for artillery support, these shells would laugh and smash into the formation of the Qing army.

Whenever there is a crisis in the pontoon position, the shells will come as promised.

"Damn it! Did these Nanban artillery teams have eight eyes or did they use some demon techniques?! The generals of the Qing army who led the counterattack all jumped to their feet and cursed for the heavy casualties caused by the shells, and in just one and a half hours, the troops of the four general soldiers and deputy generals had broken up and lost their combat effectiveness. And the artillery team on the opposite side was still tirelessly tilting the shells above their heads. "Don't their guns have to worry about overheating the barrel and blowing up the bore?!"

On the battlefield of Chemadian, the Nanyue army gradually took the initiative, and the brigade rushed across the river along the pontoon bridge.

"Good 1, the door lock of the Liao thief was smashed by us!" Fan Xiaozeng, who learned the battle report from the front, was very excited to put a small red flag on the position of the carriage and horse shop on the sand table.

The door lock of the carriage and horse shop was smashed open, but the door on the left side of Cao Zhuang was difficult to kick open.

The situation of the whole battlefield is like the siege of the city written by Mr. Qian Zhongshu, the people outside the city desperately want to rush in, but the people inside the city are desperately resisting the door and rejecting this group of vicious uninvited guests.

Cao Zhenyan and Ao Bai were two people, one went to Caozhuang with soldiers and horses, and they desperately wanted to hold their positions and stick to the front line of Caozhuang. And Ao Bai brought soldiers and horses to reinforce the carriage and horse shop, no matter what, he had to resist the door lock that was smashed by the Nanyue army, and he couldn't let the Nanyue army pour in through the crack in the door.

For a while, the battlefield fell into a stalemate of using human lives to fill it.

The battlefield made of flesh and blood gradually ushered in the moment of sunset. According to the past practice and the unwritten rules on the battlefield, when the sun sets, they have to collect their troops and return to their camps to prepare for another battle in the coming day.

However, Cao Zhenyan did not dare to be careless.

He knows his own business. At present, although there are many people in the Qing army, most of them are generals from all walks of life who have been accepted after entering the customs. It seems that there are many generals and generals, but in fact, the combat effectiveness and command ability are not as good as before entering the customs. Cao Zhenyan even thought so in his heart, if it was the two white flag soldiers and horses before entering the customs, against the current Qing army, I was afraid that the two white flags would be more likely to win.

Not to mention anything else, the blindfolds in the army alone abound.

The so-called blindfold is actually night blindness. During the day, the eyes see well, but when it gets dark, they can't see anything. This disease is caused by a lack of vitamins, and if it is treated with modern medicine, it is to take cod liver oil and liver, eggs, carrots, and various vegetables and fruits, etc., and the symptoms can be quickly reduced or disappeared. However, how many people in the current Qing army can have this condition and can have enough meat, vegetables and fruits to eat? There are some earthworks that can be used, such as drinking some pine needle juice or swallowing tadpoles raw are very effective techniques, but now that it is the middle of winter, where can I find those tadpoles? The firewood and grass of the army of more than 100,000 people are not enough, where can I find so many pine needles to boil juice to treat the blindfold of the bird?

In desperation, after a brief discussion with Aobai, Cao Zhenyan and the first Baturu of Manchuria each led a group of men and horses to patrol their own defense lines to prevent the Nanyue army from sneaking in at night.

"They don't have as many chickens in their team as we do! It's hard to tell when the lights are dim or dusk! ”

With 10,000 points of caution, Cao Jueluo led hundreds of spear-carrying soldiers to slowly patrol along the route formed by the fierce competition between the Qing army and the Nanyue army during the day, and the precarious positions of the Qing army's front. Along the way, I had a few words with the officers and soldiers stationed there, and checked the situation of the lights and combat readiness and sentry.

The night was dark and bitterly cold.

After walking dozens of miles in the wilderness along the position, these hundreds of people were already frozen with stiff legs and feet, and their faces, hands and feet were about to lose consciousness. However, these spear-bearers, who were themselves clothed minions, did not dare to complain at all, so they could only take turns carrying long spears, trying to withstand the north wind, and continue to walk one foot at a shallow foot in the ink-dyed night.

"Find a leeward place in front of you, light a few fires, and let everyone rest for a while before leaving."

Cao Zhenyan was very sympathetic to his subordinates, and planned to let his minions kick a little before leaving.

"Master, this is exactly the junction of the two general camps, and it is also a place where the horse is flat, it is not easy to find the leeward place, it is better to walk a few miles west, there, the slave remembers that there are a few places that are not bad, you can rest the horse for the time being."

The battalion officer carrying the spearmen was quite familiar with the terrain in this area, and suggested to Cao Zhenyan that he continue to walk a few miles west. There are a few low-lying areas over there that can shelter from the wind and cold, otherwise, the brigade of people and horses stayed on this endless plain, not waiting to drink the wind.

Finally, everyone came to the shelter that the battalion officer said. The officials at all levels breathed a sigh of relief, and were waiting for the minions of their subordinates to look around for some tattered chariots, shields, flags and other things to light the fire and keep warm, but a sentry officer from a white-armored soldier looked stunned, lay on the ground, took off his helmet, put it on the ground, and listened attentively.

"Master! There's a troop of cavalry coming this way! ”

"What a fuss! If there are cavalry coming, what is it! Just let them show the way for their master and check out their camp! ”

"That's it! The minions here aren't bad. I knew that I sent people to patrol the sentry, and I didn't hide in the camp and sleep with my mother's head in my arms! ”

Several Jialazhangjing were a little unimpressed.

"Master! It's not like our people! The sound of the horse's hooves is a little dull, as if the horse's hooves are wrapped in cloth to prevent people from listening! Moreover, the movements of this cavalry are quite cautious, and even a little sneaky! If it were our own cavalry, how could this be? ”

The horses' hooves were covered with rags and the halters were taken, which were necessary to prevent the hoofs and neighing of the horses from revealing their whereabouts during a typical night raid. Behind their own fronts, there is no doubt that such a sneaky team is friend or foe!

"You, take a few people to quietly go up and have a look." Cao Zhenyan pointed to the sentry officer who was born in white armor, and Cao Zhenyan still believed in his combat skills and experience. Otherwise, he will not become an elite white-armored soldier in the Eight Banners. "If it's a small group of Ming dogs sneaking in, let's teach them a lesson with guns here!"

"All in line!"

Watching the sentry officer sneak into the night with a few neat soldiers, Cao Zhenyan shouted in a low voice.

At the sound of the order, hundreds of spear-carrying guns were immediately lined up on the flat ground by the spear-carrying soldiers, and the muzzle of the black hole pointed into the dark field far away. On either side of the spearmen, one hundred and ten cavalrymen lined up on two flanks as escorts and assault forces. After a round of shooting, they were ready to rush to the Nanban cavalry, who had been blindfolded by the sudden blow, and crushed them and drove them away.

"Remember, just drive away. Don't expect total annihilation. ”

Cao Zhenyan is very cautious. He was worried that if he wanted to annihilate the cavalry of the Nanyue Army that had infiltrated him, the opportunity was not impossible, and the possibility was also very high, but it was far from enough to rely on the little strength at hand. Once it starts, if the surrounding Qing troops come to reinforce it, it will inevitably make a big move and disturb it very much. There are so many night blind patients in their own soldiers and horses, if the small contribution of the small cavalry of the Southern Yue Army is caused by this small contribution to the military camp and affects the entire defense line, it will be more than worth the loss.

The fog rises in the wilderness, blurring people's vision. The spearmen pricked up their ears and searched for the sound of the horse's hooves.

In the mist, Li Huayu groped his way forward under the escort of more than a dozen scouts and two hundred elite cavalry. This time I came out to sentry, and I also gained a lot. An important flaw in the Qing army's defense line was found. At the junction of the two general armies, there was actually a gap between the broad and large riches. It is enough for the Nanyue army to launch a fatal blow against the Qing army!

Li Dagongzi is quite complacent about his discoveries and achievements. Even though the cold night wind blew in his face, he refused to wrap his cloak tightly. (No way!) Son's brother's uncle has a temper, and it's all like this. ）

"Humph! Those guys in the staff office also said that they chose a breakthrough, what was the result? If it weren't for Ben Jue's personal involvement, he went to the scene to investigate, how could he have found that on that opening, the Liao thieves temporarily adjusted their deployment and mobilized thousands of people to block the opening!? ”

Mr. Li is quite proud of his achievements. He was going to tease Fan Xiaozeng fiercely after he went back, and let him know that Li Huayu was not a person who relied on his father's Yu Yin to get to where he is today!

While walking, Li Huayu suddenly felt a little strange. Just as he was about to look up and look around, he heard a burst of gunfire in his ears.

"Bang bang! Bang! ”

With the sound of raising the gun, immediately in the darkness the people shouted that the horses were in chaos, and one by one the cavalry fell from the horses unprepared, and the horses that were shot were even more jumping in pain, because they could not neigh because they had a halter and a chewing ring on their mouths, but could only make a muffled snort. In the thick fog, only a faint orange-red dancing flame could be seen, which was the gunfire that erupted from the muzzle of the gun. The bullets fired by the guns were strong, and the cavalry of the Nanyue Army kept falling to the ground, and the screams of people and the wails of the war horses were intertwined in the night. The frightened, bulleted horses ran and jumped back and forth, adding to the confusion in the procession.

"Not good! Ambushed! From the bullets and distances fired by the enemy, Li Huayu easily analyzed that the opponent was using the sharp weapon of the Qing army. Otherwise, it would not have been so lethal at such a distance. Don't talk about people, even war horses are also shot down!

His thoughts hadn't stopped, and with a few bangs, several bloody arrows shot out of the war horse under his crotch, and his chest and back were all smashed. Li Huayu's whole person fell to the ground with the war horse.

"Your Excellency!"

Several of his own soldiers hurriedly rolled off their horses and rushed forward to rescue him.

He struggled to point to his abdomen and thighs, looking surprised and incredulous. There, too, blood is bubbling outward. The soldiers hurriedly blocked the wound with life-saving bags, and poured the whole bottle of white medicine on the wound. However, the hot blood still keeps pouring out of the wound, and it is useless to cover it no matter how you cover it.

"Let's go! Back to camp! ”

Li Huayu's personal captain immediately carried him to his horse, carried him and galloped away along the way he came. More than 100 cavalrymen did not dare to fight, and followed like a whirlwind. Cao Zhenyan didn't dare to chase after him, but he ordered people to follow from afar, and after making sure that the cavalry had left in disarray, he ordered people to clean up the battlefield and leave separately.

Soon after returning to the camp, Li Huayu died of his injuries and blood loss.

The eldest son of the dignified Duke of Liang, the first emperor Zhu Youzhen, the marquis of Linqing, Li Huayu and the eldest prince of Li, died in such a nest.

However, in this way, there will be such a legend in the Qing army in the future, the Li family and Cao Zhenyan Cao's eight-character offense, Cao Jueluo, no, Cao Beile's eight-character special Li family! What the?! You don't believe it? You see, at the time of the Battle of Tashan, Li Huamei's scarlet-winged tiger was about to break through the defense line of the Prince Regent and Prince Yu, and the overall situation was in jeopardy! The result? At that time, Cao Beile blasted Li Huamei to the ground with the handsome flag, and suddenly reversed the crisis for our Qing Dynasty! Then Prince Yu took the opportunity to lead a counterattack and beat the Ming army back to stabilize the Tashan defense line, which led to the later victory in the battle of Jinzhou and Guangning.

Now, the Qing Dynasty has once again fallen into an unfavorable situation of war, and the heavens and heavens that the literati call them, and the God we call them, have handed over this mission of helping the crisis to Cao Beile. Don't believe it, Cao Beile went to the front enemy, how could it be so coincidental that the sentry led by Li Huayu got lost, and was sent to Cao Beile's spearmen by the fog without a clue? This is not an eight-character offense, what is the Li family? Isn't this the heaven's luck in the Qing Dynasty?

This kind of absurd legend, deliberately fueled by Dolgon and Hong Chengchou and others, was quite popular within the Qing army for a while. Even to the point that no matter what kind of troops, even the worst ragtag army, as long as they heard that they were led by Cao Zhenyan, their morale was immediately bursting, and their combat effectiveness explodes. And Li Shouhan gave an order, "In the Qing army, anyone can surrender, but Cao Zhenyan can't!" ”

This is a later story, so I won't show it for the time being.

After Li Huayu died in an accident, Fan Xiaozeng took over the command of the Shandong soldiers and horses of the Southern Guangdong Army and the Ming army troops under his control. The rest of the matter, the ranking officials were clear, and first launched a fierce attack, which made Cao Zhenyan and Ao Bai bitter.

At the same time, the news was tightly sealed in the army, and the hussars led by Ekui and Tuha escorted Li Huayu's body back to Jinan as soon as possible. Cooperate with Lumahong to stabilize the situation in the city of Jinan. At the same time, in the letter, he suggested to Lu Mahong that he quickly send people south to report the funeral to Li Shouhan, and asked the old lord to send people and horses north for reinforcements. At the very least, it is also necessary to suppress the armies in the Xuzhou area and assist Shi Kefa in organizing and training the new army Liao Dongzhi in exchange.

"General Liao's headquarters went north, and they could cooperate with our army to deter the soldiers and horses of various departments in Shandong from daring to change. However, among the armies in Jinan, only Zhang Linghu and Wu Fengxian have unclear intentions, and they are relatively strong. The subordinates observed these two people, and they were both eagle-eyed wolves and tigers, and they should not be left in the heart of the heart. In the opinion of his subordinates, he can quickly cut off the military power of the two people to secure the way back. ”

According to the plan of Fan Xiaozeng and the General Staff Office, they launched a fierce attack first, causing Cao Zhenyan and Ao Bai to complain bitterly on the position, and then quickly retreated, set up ambushes in Puyang and Fanxian, and annihilated the Qing army's forward troops. In this way, at least half a month can be bought for Lumahong in Jinan.

After the Battle of Pufan, the Nanyue Army confronted the Qing army on the Shandong border, on the one hand, to defend the enemy outside the country, and on the other hand, to stabilize the rear in Shandong. Wait for Li Shouhan's reinforcements to arrive and fight a decisive battle with the Qing army.

The plan was very thorough, and the early execution was also very good, achieving the effect that the Qing army did not dare to go south. However, Fan Xiaozeng made a lot of calculations and missed a little.

Luma Red!

She didn't have the means of Wu Zetian and Empress Lu, let alone the scoundrel of the old hooligan Liu Bang who "got a piece of the pie", and when she saw her husband's body, her eyes immediately turned red.

"Quickly report the funeral to the grandfather of Nanjing, and ask him to immediately send troops north to avenge the adult. Ling Liao Dongzhi went north. Mobilize the seventh, ninth, thirteenth, eleventh, and eighth garrison brigades in Shandong to go out of the province with me to avenge your lordship! ”

For a time, in Shandong, Bai Bu was expensive. White helmets and white armor everywhere.
