Chapter 229: Retreat and Strike
Not only did the Qing army collapse and flee in the front, but the thousands of cavalry a kilometer away were also bombarded by artillery fire, and the general artillery of the Tartars was slowly destroyed.
"Hey! Back to camp! "Shang Ke sighed! The Han army deserves to be the Han army!
"The prince will plead guilty!" After arranging the retreat, Shang Kexi knelt in front of Ah Zig!
Prince Ying's face was cold, and the strongest of the eight thousand elite soldiers only escaped back more than a thousand people! The cavalry also lost more than 100, and what was even more heartbreaking was that only three of the twenty general cannons were intact, but fortunately, there were still a few that could be repaired!
"Take ten lashes yourself, and let your guards carry it out! Step aside! When he finished speaking, he grabbed his glass.
Shang Ke was happy: "Thank you, Prince Xie! ”
Let the guards give ten lashes, which is almost the same as not beating.
The Han army couldn't hold out, and the Qing soldiers were helpless after trying everywhere!
"Does the prince want to let the lowly detour behind the mountain to surround the Han army?" Gao Hong couldn't help but suggest that it was not a way to stay up like this!
Many of the generals were also very impressed, although they had to walk a long way around the back.
Ah Jige smiled bitterly and shook his head, this world still belongs to their Manchurian people who are clear-sighted.
"There are 50,000 Han troops outside Shaoguan City, and 10,000 Han kings are riding heavy horses."
Ah Zige couldn't help but stop after speaking, 10,000 heavy rides! Even if they are tens of thousands of warriors, they don't dare to collide easily!
This! Gao Hong trembled! The Han army is behind the Han army, and if he really goes around the rear, he will definitely be wiped out!
"Winter is coming, we will collect our troops and retreat to defend, waiting for the imperial court to send more troops in the coming year!"
"Tsk!" The traitors are preoccupied! This Han army is really invincible! Even ordinary Han troops, they can't defeat them!
The Qing army retreated on all fronts, and the Han army began to shrink back to the city.
Winter is coming, and neither side wants to fight! The soldiers of the Han army also began to take vacations in batches for the New Year.
Nanchang Province.
"Shoufu, the Qing army in Changsha has withdrawn!" Huang Degong has never understood why the Han army is so strong! The Ming army also had firearms, but he didn't know the difference between the new firearms of the Han army.
Lu Zhenfei, whose face was tired, immediately overjoyed and asked urgently: "Okay!" Huang Shangshu's Han army also collected troops, right? What about their casualties? ”
"The Qing army suffered a lot of casualties! However, the Han army did not suffer many casualties! The Qing army was never able to break through the Han position! Huang Degong can only envy, such a strong army may only have been seen in the Wanli period!
Lu Zhenfei frowned: "This Han army has to be helped by heaven!" The Qing army is hundreds of thousands, even if it is besieged, the Han army can be besieged, right? ”
Yan Yingyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Lu Capital! 50,000 Han pro-troops are in battle outside Shaoguan! Even if the Han army's back road was wide open, the Manchu iron cavalry would not dare to break through! ”
Lu Zhenfei shook his head helplessly: "Hey! I see! There is the army of the Han king! These hundreds of thousands of Qing soldiers really don't dare to move lightly! ”
Lu Zhenfei also immediately reported to Emperor Yongli, although this emperor only loves pleasure and has no interest in political affairs!
"My Emperor: The Qing army has been repelled by the Han army, and Nanchang will have no worries during the year! But this Han army also has to be guarded against! ”
The young and dashing Emperor Yongli was first overjoyed, and then immediately panicked! When the King of Han settled in Lingnan, their family fled to Nanchang quickly, and they lived under the authority of the King of Han for almost the past two years.
"I believe in you and the monarchs, everything is according to the will of the cabinet!" Emperor Yongli's face was normal, but he was already desperate in his heart!
No matter who wins or loses the Manchu and Han armies, their Ming will be finished! All he can do now is to hope that the decisive battle between the Qing army and the Han army can be delayed, so that he can enjoy it for a few more years!
"Honor!" Lu Zhenfei bowed deeply!
He was touched by the emperor's trust! But how can Yongli's decadence be hidden from him! It's a pity that even he is full of despair! Even in Jiangxi, all prefectures and counties are scattered!
Even Huang Degong's Jiangnan elite is demoralized! For decades, the Ming Dynasty has been defeated, and now the people have lost hope for the Ming Dynasty!
Fuzhou!
"Father, this firearm is indeed the nemesis of the cavalry! Tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry rushed into battle, and they were defeated before they rushed nearly 100 meters! Zheng Sen said excitedly!
Zheng Zhilong nodded: "Sen'er, don't worry, my father will also support your new army!" ”
Zheng Zhihu lowered his head and sighed! For the sake of these 30,000 firearms troops, the military expenses of their Zheng family's fleet have been cut again and again! However, now that the Han army dominates the East China Sea and the South China Sea, their Zheng family sailors dare not dispatch!
"Rest assured, father! Half a year later, the new army will definitely be able to completely repel the Qing army. Zheng Sen firmly said that if they were allowed to occupy the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, his new army would definitely be able to expand to 100,000.
"Good, good!" Zheng Zhilong nodded with a smile, planning is in the sky, if the heroes compete today, their Zheng family will also fight with all their might!
Jingshi, full of new imperial capital.
Dolgon stared at the letter without saying a word, and the Battle of Changsha was still defeated by the Qing Dynasty! Although the Manchurian and Mongolian iron cavalry could not completely exert their power due to terrain problems, their hundreds of thousands of troops were several times larger than the Han army!
"Hong Aiqing, after the year, you will personally command the armies in Jiangnan!" The decisive battle in Jiangnan had to rely on the traitor green battalion.
Hong Chengchou clenched his fists and asked, "Tsk! Dare to ask the emperor how the Battle of Changsha is now? ”
Only Dolgon can order Azig, and their military headquarters has no right to interfere in the military situation in Changsha now!
Tianshun Emperor Dolgon nodded: "The Han army retreated, but the Han army's firearms array made the iron cavalry unable to be tough!" ”
"This!" Hong Chengchou wanted to mention that he would go all out to replace his firearms, but the Manchurians didn't dare to let too many firearms flow into the hands of the green camp!
Firearms are the nemesis of the iron cavalry, if these traitors are stronger than the Jurchens, the master is weak and the servant is strong, and Dolgon will become the next Chongzhen Emperor!
"Aiqing, step aside!"
"Tsk!"
After Hong Chengchou left, Dolgon couldn't help but look to the north!
The Mongolian steppe is vast and boundless, and even if Huang Taiji has subdued the Mongols, he has to admit that the overall strength of the Mongols is many times stronger than that of the Jurchens. In the east, west, north, and west, there are at least four or five million Mongols in the steppe, and there are at least a million elite cavalry!
"Perhaps!" Dorgon bowed his head and sighed! If the war is still going on next spring, it can only be!
Guangzhou.
In the Battle of Changsha, all departments performed well. Even the Fifth Cavalry Army can compete with the Mongol cavalry.
Although there are 80,000 infantry troops, there are only 10,000 flintlock firearms, not only the firearms are mighty, but the courage and combat effectiveness of the Han army are not bad.
Han Wangfu.
"Lord, the new firecracker factory will be launched tomorrow! Please also ask the lord to name it. "This is a new type of firearm designed by King Han himself, and now Li Ke has also hurried to the palace to report.
The new firebolt is still flintlocked, still a breech gun, but it has been rifled. The efficiency of the steam engine-powered breech lathe is no longer comparable to that of manpower. The parts produced by the standardized machine tool have greatly improved the sealing accuracy. There are also yellow ammunition and wax-sealed projectiles, which increase the power and rate of fire of the new firebolt by several times.
"Good! Produce as soon as possible, and expand the production line if it is okay! ”
After Chen Xiong finished speaking, he was also thinking about the name of the new firecracker! Today, December 1646! But he didn't like the Western calendar.
"It's called Chongzhen 19 style! After the single-shot rifle is finalized, it is called Yanhuang 01 type. "This year happens to be the 19th year of Chongzhen, even if he is a descendant, he has to respect the righteousness of the Ming Dynasty.
After the fall of Nanjing, the founding of the country is imminent! The Han people in the world also need a new emperor and a new dynasty.
