At the heart of Blitzkrieg is speed!
Sneak up on enemy strongholds at breakneck speed, digging deep into the heart of the enemy to quickly split the battlefield and then cut it again, leaving the opponent with little room to react.
At this time, subject to the restrictions of the times, without the blessing of aircraft and tanks, the blitzkrieg of the Qing army obviously could not reach the level of the German army back then, and could only be regarded as a pseudo-blitzkrieg.
Still, the effect is amazing!
In the movie "The Godfather", a generation of Corleone has a classic saying: "The best deterrent is not to do it, because if you do it, once you fail, or if you can't achieve the desired effect, the deterrent will be gone." β
Although the Qing army only conquered the two cities of Pinggu and Tongzhou at this time, it relied on its strong mobility advantage to block the communications of Tongzhou, Pinggu, including Xianghe and many other areas, making it difficult for many news in these areas to spread.
And the absence of news means the fall.
At this time, except for the elite of the nine sides, no one dared to go out of the city to fight with the Qing army.
Even outside Tongzhou City, there were only about 2,000 people and five or six Niu Lu's Qing army, but the hundreds of thousands of Jingying masters in the capital only dared to watch from a distance and did not dare to come out at all.
"Newspaperβ"
"Xuanfu Town Emergencyββ"
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, the sound of horses' hooves galloping mixed with piercing shouts swept straight towards the Forbidden City.
Soon, Emperor Chongzhen, who was in the early dynasty, and a group of bigwigs got a message that silenced them.
The Qing army, with a scale of about 10,000 people in the blue flag and the yellow flag, has entered the hinterland of Xuanfu Town.
This made the already noisy court even more noisy, and everyone quarreled over whether to make the elite of the Nine Sides enter the capital immediately.
Emperor Chongzhen's cold sweat was also constantly surging outward.
I have been an emperor for more than ten years, even though I have not personally been on the battlefield, but Emperor Chongzhen also understands the extent of the crisis at this time.
Now the main force of the Qing army has entered the customs, and it is basically stuck in the main roads of Liaodong, Jizhen, and even Miyun.
If you are in a hurry at this time, if there is any accident, it will not be a joke.
Maintaining the status quo, even if the Qing army can break through one or two or a few cities, at least the elite can be preserved.
And if a wrong decision is made, then the entire Ming Dynasty is in danger.
In the end, Emperor Chongzhen made a rare correct decision, first wait and see the situation, strengthen the defense of the capital, and wait for the situation to become a little clearer, and then recruit reinforcements.
After all, the walls of the capital are thick, the manpower and materials are not bad, the Tartars have not been to the capital before, and it is far more than once, it is not so simple to break through the capital, Emperor Chongzhen is still a little confident.
And the next day, Emperor Chongzhen received a new battle report, and the main force of thousands of people in the Qing army with white flags had entered the hinterland of Baoding Mansion.
This also made Emperor Chongzhen breathe a sigh of relief.
His judgment yesterday was correct, the Tartars came only to ask for money, and as long as they had grabbed enough things, they would definitely leave.
β¦β¦
However, at this time, the main force of the Qing army led by the Dolgon and Duoduo brothers, with a scale of 50,000 or 60,000 people, had already drained the water around Yutian!
They came overnight last night, and in just one night, they filled in the many fortifications outside Yutian City, and it was not yet noon, and the huge slaves were already about to push the fortifications to Yutian City.
"Handsome, it's not good! The Tartars are clearly trying to kill us! The king's banner of Dorgon and Dorgon has arrived, and I am afraid that the size of this will be sixty or seventy thousand......"
"Handsome man, the hero doesn't suffer immediate losses, we are definitely not the opponent of the Tartars, let's prepare to break through!"
"Yes, handsome man, Yutian City is a villain, if you don't break through, I'm afraid, you may not be able to survive today......"
At the head of the city, many generals around Cao Bianjiao couldn't sit still.
They are all old fritters, all of them have been in battle for a long time, and many of them are characters who have followed Xu Changqing through Huang Taiji, so they naturally understand the danger of things!
"Uncle Yutian, you can't break through, you can't break through. Once the siege is broken, what will happen to the more than 30,000 people in this city? β
Here, Yutian's county order knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.
His surname is Li, Chongzhen was born as a jinshi for 12 years, he has been in the Hanlin Academy for more than three years, and he just sat on the throne of the county, but he didn't expect that his ass was not hot yet, and he actually encountered this situation.
He was born in a poor family, he is almost forty years old this year, and he really fought hard to get the future in front of him, how could he let it go?
Cao Bianjiao was dressed in silver armor, glanced at the generals around him, and then glanced at Li Zhixian, and said in a deep voice: "I, Cao someone, is deeply favored by the emperor, if I break through at this time, where will I put tens of thousands of people in Yutian?" Don't talk about this matter again! Everyone has it, immediately go to the positions of the various departments and prepare to defend the city! β
"Handsome ......"
"Execute the order!"
"Yes!"
The generals, almost all of them crying, quickly returned to their respective positions.
"Knock, knock, knock......"
At this time, there was a sudden roar of huge drums in the Qing army's large array.
The main forces of the two yellow flags and the positive blue flags, which had been prepared for a long time, under the cover of many Han army banner minions, there were more than 30 Niu Lu and tens of thousands of troops, rushing forward from all sides one after another, and began to enter the rhythm of siege.
Seeing that Cao Bianjiao didn't break through, but wanted to defend it with this small city of Yutian, Duoduo couldn't help but be surprised: "Is this surnamed Cao's brain stupid?" He didn't even break through! Damn it, this dog Nikan has wasted so much thought about the arrangement. β
Dolgon smiled, and his mood was obviously very good: "If you don't come out, you can save some trouble, and send an order to spare Baylor and Aobai, and in an hour, this king will see the result!" β
"Wow!"
As Dolgon's order passed on, countless Qing troops were like chickens, and the speed suddenly increased a lot.
"Brothers, fire! Kill a dog. Mother. Raise a dog Tartar! β
At the head of the city, a Qin army guerrilla attacker, shouting beyond the artillery to open fire.
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Suddenly, three or four earthen cannons mixed with three or four Franc machines began to fire frantically.
However, Yutian City is small and outnumbered, and it is not a military fortress, and its humble firepower is really outrageous.
If it were just a few thousand Tartars, maybe they would still be able to fight.
But at this time, in the face of the main force of the Qing army of 50,000 or 60,000 people, they were like an isolated island surrounded by a terrifying tide, and the outcome was already doomed......
After two rounds of tickling shelling, one of the earthen cannons exploded, which immediately blew over more than a dozen surrounding soldiers, causing a wail and a miserable howl.
After all, Cao Bianjiao is Yutian Bo, and many sons and daughters under his command are also considered meritorious troops, and the generals quickly controlled the scene, and the people hurriedly carried the wounded down, and the new auxiliaries came up.
But this old-fashioned artillery is not only weak, but also speechless in quality.
If the cannon is fired at a normal pace, it may be able to hold five or six rounds, six or seven rounds, but at this time, such a high-intensity firing speed is destined to explode.
Soon, the guns were bombed in succession.
Fortunately, the surrounding soldiers were prepared and avoided from afar, and the casualties were not large.
But at this time, the Qing army had already rushed to the city!
"Brothers, kill the Tartars of the dog day! We've killed the team of the Slave Chieftain Taiji! β
"Kill the Tartars!"
"Hold on, get rid of the dog!"
The first to attack the head of Yutian City is the north gate, on a cloud ladder, many white armor soldiers with two yellow flags take the lead, they are holding all kinds of heavy weapons, their backs are full of various small flags, the whole body is in fine armor, and they are not afraid of ordinary attacks such as rolling wood and stones, and they rush to the city in the blink of an eye.
Although Cao Bianjiao has also expanded his army for more than a year, he is obviously not comparable to Xu Changqing, not only is there not much material and food, but the source of troops is also very small.
Moreover, Cao Bianjiao did not understand the essence of conscription, and many soldiers were actually not very qualified.
In a moment, as the old army was swept out of space by these white-armored soldiers, many new recruits. Egg. The son panicked all of a sudden, and the crying father and the mother ran away in all directions.
Cao Bianjiao's troops of less than 6,000 had to defend four or five miles of city walls, and that weakness soon began to manifest.
"Those who dare to flee for their lives will be killed! Brothers, kill the Tartars with me! β
Cao Bianjiao soon went into battle in person, holding his Guan Ye knife, as sharp as ever.
It's a pity that in the face of such a general trend, it is not even a drop in the bucket......
"Shuai Ye, you can't fight anymore, if you continue to fight, the brothers won't even have any seeds......"
The adjutant rushed over crying, tears in his eyes.
Seeing the old brothers around him falling one after another, Cao Bianjiao was already in tears.
According to his intelligence system, the elite level of his subordinates who did not collect at night had actually detected the movements of the main force of the Qing army long ago.
Moreover, he knew very well that the Dorgon brothers would not let him go no matter what!
But he gave up the opportunity to break through in advance, and wanted to live and die with Yutian City......
If Xu Changqing is here, I'm afraid he can give Cao Bianjiao a fist, how can he, Uncle Cao, be like this!
However, at this time, no one can change Cao Bianjiao's decision!
He is the emperor's own Yutian Bo, if he can't even keep Yutian, where will his value and his beliefs be placed?
"Haha, rush up and slaughter them! Those who capture Cao Changjiao alive will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver, and the official will be promoted to the third level! β
In the battle formation of the two yellow flags, because of the correct position and the strength of his own, Ao Bai has been promoted to Mele Zhangjing at this time.
At this time, he was riding on a tall horse, full of spirit, and pointed out the country.
On the other side, although Rao Yu Belle Abatai was not as arrogant as Ao Bai and the spring breeze was proud, it was not much worse, and he directly ordered: "Capture Cao Changjiao alive, reward 10,000 taels of silver, and the official will be promoted to three levels!" β
Under the heavy reward, the momentum of the Qing army has been like a torrent.
And although the Qin army is also desperately resisting, in this terrible torrent, it is like a small leaf, and it can't turn up much wind and waves at all.
In less than half an hour, the four city walls fell completely, and Li Zhixian had already run back to his yamen, holding the Buddha beads to ask the Buddha.
Cao Bianjiao and others took the remnants of the soldiers and retreated to the front of the camp.
By this time, the encirclement of the Qing army had been fully formed, and it was impossible to break through.
They quickly rode on their most familiar war horses, and Cao Bianjiao also rode on his black BMW, and suddenly glanced at the surrounding sons with a smile: "Brothers, are you afraid?" β
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid of a ball! Handsome, let's fight with the dog Tartar! Kill one without losing money, kill two and earn one! β
"Handsome man, let's fight with the dog tartars! Over the years, we have also enjoyed what should be enjoyed, and the family is also stable in Shaanxi, both horizontal and vertical are a death, and we Shaanxi men are afraid of him as a ball! β
"Handsome ......"
Cao Bianjiao glanced at the surrounding children, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he couldn't help nodding vigorously: "Okay, good!" You are all my Cao Bianjiao's brothers, and you are all my Cao Bianjiao's good brothers! Go, brothers, kill the Tartars with Lao Tzu! Today, even if we die on the battlefield, the court will definitely show us mercy! Also, my little nephew, Zhongyi Uncle Xu Changqing, will definitely avenge us! β
"Loyal and righteous uncle Xu Changqing?"
As soon as the surrounding Qin Jun'er heard this name, his spirit couldn't help but lift suddenly.
"Haha, that's right! Uncle Zhongyi will definitely avenge us! β
"Dog, Tartar, suffer death!"
"Rush! Zhongyibo will not let us down! β
Soon, on the not wide street, several hundred horsemen, as they usually knew best, desperately increased their speed and rushed forward......
