Chapter 349: Changqing, Bayonet Assault (7)
The results of this morning were abundant.
"My lord, as of lunch, our army has captured a total of 2,076 shaved hair and braided heads. Among them, there were 764 Mongolian Tatars, 309 Dongnu, of which 7 were thieves who were specialized, strong, and dedicated, and 19 were thieves and slaves. The rest are rebels. Nine hundred and thirty-two prisoners. Forty-two of them were Eastern slaves, one hundred and five were Mongol Tatars, and the rest were rebels. ”
"Four thousand and thirty-one sets of armor were seized, five two hundred and fifteen long and short knives and guns of thieves and slaves, one thousand thousand and seventy-four bows, five Niu Lu flags, two Jiala flags, and one golden dragon silk woven by the main body of the pseudo flag. In addition, there were 1,056 war horses, of which 643 were intact, and the rest of the horses were injured by artillery shells to varying degrees. Subordinates and others are organizing people to interrogate the captives to see if there are big fish mixed in the captives, to identify the beheaded people's lives and the captured people, and to see if there are any thieves and slaves among the officials at all levels! ”
After listening to the statistics of the results of the military administration department and the battalion office, Shouhan, Wang Chengen, and Wang Dehua couldn't help but be happy. This should be another big victory since Chongzhen's nine years! And this is only a preliminary statistic, not far from the hillside there are still a few slaves on the weaving gold dragon and a large group of people. Those are the military exploits of the future!
Wang Bao, Wu Biao, Liao Dongzhi, Huang Yishan, Wu Guerrilla and others were all overjoyed, beheaded more than 2,000 ranks, and captured many of them, including many Jiannu Niu Lu Zhangjing-level officers. Such a remarkable achievement is enough to make the army of the King of Guard raise his eyebrows this time. Wu Guerrilla even told several fellow generals who fought together about the Ming Dynasty's military merit reward system.
The Ming Dynasty was originally the heaviest in capturing and beheading the Mongols, and after the rise of the Later Jin. He also focused on the military exploits of the Manchurians. If an ordinary sergeant captures and beheads a golden soldier, and is now a Qing soldier, he will be promoted to the first level, and will be rewarded with silver and cloth, up to three poles.
Leading the Officer. There are 500 commanders and 1,000 commanders-in-chief, and their subordinates have 10 slaves and thieves, and they will be promoted to the first level, and for every 10 additional officers, they will be promoted by one level. Those who lead a thousand people, every twenty. Promoted to the first level. For every 20 additional seeds, one level will be added. Up to the end of the three poles, the second level is actually awarded, and the first level is acted. and reward the silver and cloth.
Slay so many heads. Captured many Jiannu officers and soldiers. It is something that has never happened in the dynasty since the Dongnu Rebellion, and everyone's promotion and fortune are just around the corner!
Shouhan counted the results of the battle with his own civil and military officers, while the soldiers of the brigades and regiments below seized the time to enjoy their lunch.
The baggage battalion set up in Changqing County, accompanied by Changqing Zhixian, had already prepared and delivered lunch. The meals were sumptuous. This seven-grade official was a little jealous. Large vats of snow-white fragrant japonica rice, steaming vegetable soup and broth, and more oily pieces of meat and fish stewed were allowed to be eaten and drunk by the officers and men.
When the officials and people of Changqing County carried the food out of the city, they smelled the fragrance of the food, and they couldn't stop swallowing their saliva, and the soldiers of the Nanzhong Army ate so well! Such a rich amount of oil and water! In order to provide the brothers with a hot meal, the brothers of the baggage camp collected dozens of charcoal braziers in the city, and on top of the brazier there was a huge earthen pot filled with hot water and placed under the bucket containing the food dishes to heat the food.
After a bloody battle, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing battalion, including those Jinyi Banner schools, have gradually merged with the Nanzhong Army, and these brothers with the taste of soil buns are not to say that they are fighting. The eyes of everyone looking at the soldiers of the Nanzhong Army began to become close and kind, these brothers fought hard with the Tartars with real swords and guns, and everything they had was exchanged for their own lives.
As everyone knows, in the eyes of the Nanzhong Army, these officers and soldiers of the Beijing Battalion, who were still full of flashy and flashy flavors not long ago, have become no longer so annoying. The luxurious robe on his body was splashed with Jiannu's blood, and the slippery demeanor gradually receded.
The magistrate led the officials and Minzhuang to personally go out of the city to help clean up the battlefield, and carry all the dead and wounded soldiers of the Nanzhong Army back to the city. The fathers and elders in the city had already donated hundreds of coffins for military use.
What the leaders of the Minzhuang squad and the leaders of the government officials are most willing to do is to dispose of the corpses of those Qing soldiers, the weapons are sorted and packed up, the armor on the body is stripped off, and the helmets, Nanzhong armor, chain mail, iron-inlaid cotton armor, and iron armor are also distinguished. It is indispensable that these people, who are used to making money on weekdays, clean up the residual oil and water on the bodies of the deceased of Jiannu again. The heads of the corpses were all cut off, and the corpses were stripped naked and piled up in one place, waiting to be disposed of. In the future, these heads will be litrated with lime, which will be a valuable military feat! The leaders of the three classes of officials and the heads of the Minzhuang squad shouted at their subordinates to collect the Mongolian horses scattered everywhere one by one and hand them over to the military masters of the Southern Chinese Army.
The magistrate did all this with his hands and feet, just looking forward to being able to praise himself greatly when he wrote the military success document in the future. However, this dedication has paid off, and the two princes both appreciated his diligence and wanted to ensure his promotion after returning to Beijing.
"My lord, our army won the first battle in the morning, what should we do after that?"
Like those soldiers, Wang Chengen served a bowl of rice indiscriminately, put it in his mouth, and asked Shouhan vaguely.
The victory in the morning battle made the two princes overjoyed, if they could personally participate in an unprecedented victory, the emperor's reward is one thing, wouldn't he be able to go down in history?
Wine, wealth, fame and fortune are people's great desires. The eunuch had no sexual function, and because he was next to the emperor, he naturally couldn't get drunk every day. As a result, the pursuit of money, power, and reputation behind them is extraordinarily strong, why don't these two princes want to be like the Three Treasures and like Cai Lun Cai's father-in-law?
Shouhan raised his head and looked at the sun hanging in the air, at least two and a half hours before dark, Jiannu would never be willing to fail.
"Order the troops to hurry up and eat, drink, and rest. Get ready to welcome our Liaodong guests! ”
A few are happy and a few are sad.
The Xuandu Temple on Wufeng Mountain became the temporary trip of Yue Tuo and others at this time.
The Qing soldiers outside the view have already set up a large battalion. Large tents spread along the hillside. Look around. The flags of the red flag, the red flag, the white flag, and the white flag are clearly demarcated, and the fighting is strict. Groups of Qing soldiers traveled up and down the hillside, detaining groups of miscellaneous servants and captured civilians to chop firewood and carry water, bury pots to make rice, and feed horses with grass.
The Eight Banners Army camped quite in a disciplined manner, since the period of the old slaves, they marched and hunted, set up fences in winter, dug trenches in summer, and herded horses in the fence trenches, passing horns and fighting arrows to patrol the watch. No one will flee.
From the Xuandu Temple to the south of the Di Mountain. It is the Tomb of King Toku, which houses the tombs of six generations of King Toku. However, at this time, the living kings of Germany became prisoners of Jiannu. And what about the dead King De? Naturally, this place has become a good place for Jiannu to chop wood and herd horses.
Xuandu Guannei. In front of the main hall dedicated to Sanqing. Several Baya soldiers were whipping and beating, and thunderous roars kept coming from the hall.
Outside the hall, several banner owners of the Mongolian Eight Banners trembled one by one. Listening to the roaring and scolding of several masters in the hall.
Their troops were frustrated in the morning battle, not to mention the loss of their bannermen, causing the Mongolian white flag owner Yibai to lose the weaving gold dragon, which became the biggest loss this time.
Ibai fled back to Wufeng Mountain, and immediately cried to his master, Rao Yu Belle Abatai, although Abatai was the Baylor of Manchuria with white flags, but the relationship between the two white flags was well known, and he could be regarded as the master of his own family.
As a result, the two Gelas and a few of the escaped Niu Lu had to face the wrath of Rao Bel Abatai.
Seeing that Abatai had beaten the two Jiala and the four Niu Lu who had escaped back to the point that they were not humanoid, and it was expected that his anger was almost out, Yue Tuo spoke at this time.
"Lord Ibai, although they are not good at fighting, there is something to be done. But what crime should you be guilty of losing the golden dragon silk rewarded by the emperor? ”
As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly became silent.
Everyone knows that with Huang Taiji's mean and unkind character, if he knows that this Mongolian banner lord Yibai has lost his royal gift of the golden dragon silk, I am afraid that it will be a luxury for Yibai to die happily at that time!
"Please General Yangwu save the minions!"
It was only after a while that the Banner Master of Ibay squeezed out such a sentence from the knock of his rattling teeth.
"Good! The whole army immediately had a meal, and after the meal, the whole army set out, and the king led me to be the red flag heavy armor soldiers, armored people, and Bayala soldiers as the vanguard, making a model for the whole army! As for you, if you are willing, you will charge with this king! ”
"The minion is willing to be the striker of the prince!"
"Lord Wang, our army has been fighting for a while today, have you issued an order to order the warriors to rest all night and fight again tomorrow?"
Abatai, who was sitting next to Yue Tuo, reminded him in a low voice to consider the physical strength of the soldiers.
"It doesn't matter! I, the warriors of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, are not yet tired! ”
"Ben Baylor is also willing to go into battle with General Yangwu! A battle to wipe out this group of southern barbarians! To relieve the hatred in my heart! As the banner master of Manchuria with red flags, Du Du's words naturally carry more weight than Abatai, who is just a white flag Baylor.
Among the three Manchurian nobles, Yue Tuo and Du Du both advocated fighting immediately and not giving each other a chance to breathe. Their reason is simple, but also very strong, "We are tired, and the enemy is even more tired." They have fewer soldiers than we do. Naturally, I want to rest more! ”
It was immediately agreed that all the heavily armored dead soldiers, armored men, bannermen, and Baya soldiers of the Two Red Banners Manchuria were all pressed. The remaining forty coated cattle records followed closely after the two red flags, and they must continue in waves! The Mongol cavalry continued to harass and contain the southern Chinese army on both flanks in order to attract the southern barbarians.
As for the soldiers and horses of Rao Yu Belle Abatai, Yue Tuo and others also made arrangements. "Rao Yu Baylor has a noble status, and he must not be moved lightly, he should press the formation for the whole army, and supervise the athletes of the department to supervise the attack of the whole army."
After listening to the operational deployment, several Mongolian banner owners breathed a long sigh of relief in their hearts. For the task given to them, it is relatively satisfied. The warriors under its banner are extremely afraid of Nanban's unreasonable style of play. It's also weird! Those Nanban only had a saber and a spear in their hands, and the martial arts on the horses were also commonplace, but they were able to let their warriors who were proficient in the art of riding and archery flee when they saw them riding their horses and attacking in formation.
In the last attack, not only did they lose the lives of the warriors, they lost thousands of horses, but what was even worse was that the confidence of the warriors was completely knocked out!
"Then Ben Baylor is waiting for your good news in the camp!"
Abatai was very happy about the task that Yue Tuo had given him. This is clearly unwilling to let him make meritorious contributions. That's good! We're happy to lose a few people! ……
"My lord! The army of thieves is moving! ”
A Jinyi flag school trotted all the way to Shouhan to report the emergency military situation.
Copper head, iron tail, tofu waist!
This is the unanimous evaluation of everyone in the Nanzhong Army after seeing the formation of Yue Tuo's attack.
"The Mongol cavalry on both flanks will be handed over to me!" Huang Yishan slammed his chest, full of confidence.
"I promise not to let them rush to the flanks of our large array!"
"Wrong! Your cavalry is not to cover the flanks of the whole army, but this time it is our mission to make you the vanguard of the whole army! ”
"My lord! Do you want us to storm the enemy's array? It's a bit hard! The cavalry brigade had only two regiments of men and less than a thousand cavalry. The enemy cavalry on the opposite side was at least several times larger than me! How to storm the enemy line? ”
"Stupid!"
Shouhan rolled his eyes, and pointed at the sky-high smoke and dust rolled up by thousands of Mongolian cavalry in the distance with the telescope in his hand, "Isn't there a leader of your thousands of Mongolian cavalry there?" ”
"The meaning of the lord is that we drive the Mongolian Tartar cavalry as the lead and attack the Jiannu formation from both sides!"
"Not bad! Look! ”
Yue Tuo put the elite main force of his department at the forefront, used it as a sharp knife for the breakthrough, and put more than 10,000 clothed Niu Lu soldiers on the second line, ready to make them come forward to fight after the main force of the two red flags opened the breakthrough. Expand the results. And on both flanks of the entire extremely wide offensive formation. It was thousands of Mongol cavalry roaming back and forth to protect the army.
Looking at the various flags of the opposite military formation like a sea, Shouhan counted the points, "Several Niu Lu and Baya soldiers of the two red flags have been dispatched. Those two Dazi followed. The combat power of these guys is less than 50% of the two red flags. On both flanks you drive the Mongol cavalry against their own formation. Just rush the Mongolian soldiers into the coated soldiers of these forty Niu Lu, they will be in chaos, and the two red flags in front of them will become our food on our plate and meat in the bowl! ”
If this is said by someone else. Wang Chengen and Wang Dehua must have thought that this person's braincase was burned out, and they dared to say such a wild thing that they wanted to turn the two red flags into a delicacy in their mouths. However, with the earth-shattering results in front of them, they have seen how the Nanzhong Army fought in the past few days, and the two angels did not feel that there was anything wrong.
"My lord, your plan is good, it's just that there are too few cavalry in our army, I'm afraid it will be difficult to sustain for a while."
Huang Yishan calculated the strength in his hand, but no matter how he calculated, he was overstretched.
"Brigade Commander Huang, our family will add it to you, how about four hundred cavalry?" Wang Chengen and Wang Dehua exchanged heads and whispered a few words, and said their thoughts to Huang Yishan with a smile.
"With our family's escort to the south twice, there are a total of six or seven hundred people, including one hundred people from the Jinyi Banner School, four hundred soldiers from the Beijing camp, and one or two hundred other deacons of the rest of the various types, and our family will draw four hundred good men from these people, although they can't march like the general's cavalry like a wall and a forest, but it is still okay to cheer behind the cavalry of the brigade!"
With half of the troops at once, Huang Yishan felt a lot relieved in his heart, although those cavalrymen who were born in Jinyi and the three thousand battalions were quite delicate, but when it came to the battlefield, the saber didn't matter who you were.
"That's the best! This general will thank his father-in-law on behalf of the soldiers of the Nanzhong Army! However, I also asked my father-in-law to mobilize one or two in front of the soldiers, and it was the best choice to encourage them to make meritorious contributions to the country and the enemy. ”
"We know that."
"The lower official has something to report!"
One person squeezed out of the crowd next to him and knelt down in front of them.
The round-necked yarn hat is Changqing Zhi County.
"My lord! Father-in-law! Xia Guanxi is the county of Changqing, and he is grateful to the soldiers of the army for guarding the land and protecting the people, and is willing to follow our army to kill the enemy and serve the country. ”
According to the meaning of the magistrate, there are many people who are proficient in horsemanship among the people of Changqing and the horse fast class, and they can gather hundreds of riders to come out, and they are willing to use their strength behind the cavalry of the army.
These words reminded Shouhan that tens of thousands of people in the villages and towns near the left were gathered in the county town of Changqing, and Ding Zhuang could gather at least a few thousand people to come out.
"Old parents, this matter of dispatching riders can be spared. However, Ben will have another errand arrangement for the old parents. ”
In Changqing City, the Nanzhong Army had hundreds of officers and soldiers of the baggage battalion, who were responsible for the management and protection of the baggage of the whole army, and dozens of cooking vehicles also occupied hundreds of officers and soldiers. If these people can be freed up, the problem of insufficient troops to defend the Han can be alleviated.
"I allocated 500 pairs of captured armor to my old parents, with all swords, guns, bows and arrows, and asked my old parents to arm all the officials, people, and garrisons in your county, and obey the command of the officers I left behind in the city. In addition, the young people in the city asked their parents to send someone to cooperate with our officers to organize them according to our army system, and tell them that everything that is being made up will be paid and fed. He only needs to be responsible for maintaining law and order in the city of Changqing and carrying grain, grass and ammunition for our army. After the army defeated the slaves and thieves, the old parents could lead these volunteers out of the city to search for the remnants of the enemy and clean up the battlefield. ”
You don't need to go to the battlefield to fight with the famous Jiannu, as long as you organize the people to maintain law and order in the city, carry grain and grass, take care of the wounded soldiers, arrange meals, and then go out of the city to fight the water dogs when the overall situation has been decided, you can get a lot of military merits.
