Chapter 748: Night Attack Out of the City, Cluster Burning Camp

When Li Xiao said this, his eyes were burning and his expression was firm: "As long as the Qing army outside the city is destroyed, those Shun troops who came to the rescue are likely to collapse by themselves in extreme panic, and our army will take advantage of the victory to pursue, chase the dead and chase the north, and wipe out all these rabble, then the siege of Jintang City will be solved, and the entire Xuanfu North Road will be revitalized!" ”

When Li Xiao said this, his face was full of joy, and he said: "In order to cooperate with the siege of Jintang City, this king will also order the soldiers and horses of the tenth town of Xichuan to make a feint attack to the west, so as to exacerbate the enemy's miscalculation. Let Li Zicheng panic in his heart, and send all the besieging soldiers and horses of Jintangcheng to Hanzhong as soon as possible, so that my soldiers and horses of Jintangcheng can break through as soon as possible. ”

Chen Zilong and Jiang Yueguang stood up and said in unison: "King Tang is wise, we will all listen to King Tang's arrangement." ”

Three days later, Duan Shidi, the main general of Jintang City, received a flying pigeon biography from Tang King Li Xiao, and he was overjoyed when he got the news, and immediately began to act according to Li Xiao's instructions.

In Jintang City, the establishment of a new 12th town soldiers, personnel deployment, organization and construction, recruitment of new soldiers, absorption of previous troops, dredging tunnels and other work are carried out in an orderly manner, and the whole city is busy.

At the same time, Duan Shidi secretly ordered the defenders at the head of the city to closely observe the movements of the enemy forces outside the city, and report any changes immediately.

Twenty days later, a garrison at the head of the city came to report that most of the enemy soldiers outside the city were now unfamiliar faces, and the daily training of the formation was also uneven, and there was no such thing as the fierce spirit of the previous long battle.

Duan Shidi, the lord of Jintang City, couldn't help but sigh in his heart for Li Xiao's accurate grasp of the current situation, but he still followed Li Xiao's advice and waited patiently for more than a month.

At this time, the 12th Town of the Tang Army, which was composed of officers and soldiers selected and transferred from the Fourth Town of the Tang Army as the backbone, and the troops of the Dashou Department and the Wu Sangui Department as the main force, as well as a small number of newly recruited recruits in the city, had also been preliminarily trained and organized.

Duan Shidi, the mayor of the fourth town of the Tang Army, who was the main general of the city, knew that he had been patient and silent until now, and the opportunity had finally come.

He quickly ordered the whole army to prepare to attack out of the city according to the plan set by the Tang King that day.

The whole plan is that when the whole army is in the son, the soldiers and horses of the two towns will go out of the city together, and among them, the soldiers and horses of the fourth town of the Tang Army, as the main force of the attack, sneak out of the city from the tunnel, all the way to the sleeping Qing army, and strive to defeat the Qing army in one fell swoop.

As an auxiliary attack, the soldiers and horses of the 12th town of the Tang Army opened the north gate, and the whole army protruded from the north gate and entered the battle as a reserve.

The plan was set, and the Tang army immediately began to prepare secretly and quickly, and when they arrived, the three underground tunnels leading to the north gate were already densely filled with Tang soldiers, many of whom held torches in their hands, illuminating the entire tunnel red.

After speaking a lot of encouraging words to all the soldiers of the Fourth Town of the Tang Army, seeing that the time had come, he immediately ordered the whole army to stand out and go out of the city from the tunnel together.

When the fourth town of the Tang army attacked from the tunnel, the soldiers and horses of the twelfth town of the first army were also prepared at the same time, led by the town mayor Liu Wenxiu and the deputy town mayor Wu Gui, gathered at the north gate, ready to start the battle outside the city, then opened the city gate, and attacked the whole Qing army in the night.

Coincidentally, in the early autumn weather, in the north of the Saibei, the weather was dry and the weather was getting colder and colder, but now in the middle of the night, it was a rare drizzle.

The time is beautiful, making the Tang Army's attack more sudden. And the Qing army camp in the distance was even more silent.

The Qing army outside the city is divided into three camps in total, each other is horns, in the shape of a zigzag, thinking that the situation of mutual aid, among the three camps, the middle battalion has the most soldiers and horses, about nearly 20,000, and the remaining two battalions are stationed in more than 10,000 people. Among them, the middle battalion that broke forward was guarded by the commander Abatai, the left battalion master will be his son Gushan Ezhen Yuele, and the right battalion master will be the veteran first-class Lama Ezhen Turge.

The Qing army outside the city originally numbered 50,000 people, but because the Qing court saw such a siege battle, which was far away, it decided to withdraw the most elite of more than 10,000 Manchurian soldiers to the country. Only about 5,000 Manchurian soldiers, more than 5,000 Mongol soldiers, more than 20,000 Han troops, a total of more than 40,000 people, continued to besiege the city and maintain a high-pressure posture against Jintang City.

The Qing army quietly reduced the siege soldiers and horses, which seemed to take a slight advantage, but they would never have imagined that the transfer of more than 10,000 battle-hardened Manchurian elite soldiers and horses would have an immeasurable impact on the upcoming battle. If the regent Dorgon, the supreme ruler of the Qing court, had known that on this drizzly night, the Tang army would suddenly attack out of the city without warning, and he would definitely regret that his bowels were blue.

Although the long-term siege of the city, which lasted for more than half a year, was uneventful, for the sake of safety, Abatai ordered that important logistical materials such as ordnance, grain and grass should be stationed in the left and right battalions in the back, and the middle battalion was a pure combat unit, with each battalion spaced about two miles apart to maintain sufficient space for movement.

The commander of the Qing army, Abba Taiman, thought that in the following days, as long as he was stationed on the spot and kept the siege like this, he would be safe. As long as you stay until the food in the city is exhausted, you can work with the Shun army to besiege Jintang City on three sides.

Abatai never wanted to know that his calculations were so good that he thought he was safe, but in such a time that he could not have imagined, the Tang army actually went out of the city to attack, which was completely beyond his expectations.

The rain-soaked patchy grass suddenly moved, pieces of turf were quietly lifted, and groups of ghost-like Tang Army auxiliaries took the lead in drilling out of the tunnel exit.

Out of the tunnel, they used the faint night light as a light, and with the help of the disassembly and assembly training that had been practiced many times during this time, they quickly and accurately assembled the small trebuchet that was disassembled into parts. Similarly, the individual Heaven-shaking Thunder that he brought with him had already been bundled into bundles in groups of ten, ready to be thrown and used.

More than 20 urgently assembled small trebuchets lined up in the drowsy night, and then squeaked and twisted the coils until they reached the tightest point, ready to be put into the fire.

Then, immediately, an auxiliary soldier stepped forward quickly and placed bundles of bundles of sky-shaking thunder on top of the dropping box that was pulled down.

"Ignition!"

Zizi's continuous sound was soft, and more than 20 ignition torches were immediately ignited, and immediately, these auxiliary soldiers reused the ignition rope and lit the fuse that was twisted into a single strand of cluster earth-shaking thunder.

The flaming fuses, glowing with a faint blue flame, shimmered with tiny sparks, like the fangs of the devil glittering.

"Put!"

With the angry shout of the leader of the auxiliary troops, the winches of more than 20 trebuchets that were twisted to the extreme were released almost at the same time, only to hear the sound of a loose string, and the throwing rod that was pressed down to the horizontal position bounced violently, and the half-burned cluster of earth-shaking thunder with a faint whistling sound, crossed a long arc in the air, and rushed straight towards the middle camp of Abatai in the distance.

In the dark night, the little blue fire that appeared out of thin air in the distance, although it was not clear in the drizzle, had actually quickly attracted the attention of the cavalry of the Dashun army patrolling in the distance, but they were extremely surprised before they had time to let out a terrible whistle, and the more than 20 cluster earth-shaking thunderbolts had been thrown together.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

Cluster earth-shaking thunder, like a bird of death falling from the sky, roaring straight to the Qing army camp, this first round of volleys, because it could not be well aimed in the dark night, and there was a mist and rain as an obstacle, only less than half of the earth-shaking thunder hit the enemy camp.

Rao is like this, every ten cluster thunderbolts tied into a bundle, the explosion power is still extremely impressive, to the unprepared Qing army camp, causing huge damage and shock.

The dazzling golden firelight, the deafening explosion, the flesh and blood of the Qing soldiers, the continuous screams that sounded everywhere, the burning tents and the warehouses in the camp, made the Chinese army camp in Abatai instantly turn into a chaotic and miserable hell on earth.

Coincidentally, one of the cluster earth-shattering thunderbolts hit the mast of the Chinese army's big tent, and with a click, the high fluttering banner of the Dashun army on the Chinese army's big tent was interrupted.

Fortunately, it was on this flagpole that the cluster of earth-shattering thunder did not just crash on the tent and explode, so that Abatai, who was sleeping soundly, was able to save his life.

In the end, this earth-shattering thunder rolled not far from the tent before it exploded violently, and the dense iron marbles in the warhead created a wide range of death areas, and knocked out the thick cowhide tent one after another terrible bullet holes, and the afterburners and high temperatures produced by the explosion immediately ignited the Chinese army tent where Abatai lived.

Rao is such a thick cowhide tent, it is still difficult to resist the power of the Tang Army's cluster earth-shattering thunder explosion, there are still many iron bullets, stubbornly through the thick cowhide tent, screaming into the tent, and immediately killing a guard who was blocking in front of Abatai, flesh and blood blurred.

Abatai, who had just been awakened by the loud explosion and had not had time to get up, was splashed with blood on his face by the guard who fell down with a howl, and he jumped up from the bed in horror, and immediately shouted loudly: "What's the matter? What's going on out there?! So many parade sentinels, why don't you come to report, are they all fucking shit-eating?! ”

Abatai wiped a handful of blood from his face and yelled at the frightened guard closest to him in the tent.

The guard's face was bloodless and his face was shocked, he met Abatai's fierce eyes, and stammered: "Hey, Yubele, there are Tang troops who have gone out of the city to attack the camp, and they are outside the north gate of Jintang City, throwing earth-shattering thunder to attack our army from a distance, and our army was caught off guard, so they are so passive......

"Fuck! Are you dead? What are you doing in a daze, immediately extinguish the fire, and at the same time organize troops to slaughter all these damn Tang troops who threw earth-shattering thunder! ”

Abatai looked furious, and as he hurriedly put on his armor, he gritted his teeth and yelled.

Without waiting for the guard to speak, Abatai, who quickly put on his armor, grabbed another sword from his hand, quickly left the tent where the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and hurried out of the tent.

At this moment, more than 20 clusters of sky-shaking thunderbolts fell from the sky with a roar.

In the second round of shooting, the Tang Army adjusted the projection position in time according to the effect of the first round of test firing, so this second round of salvo, the roaring cluster of earth-shaking thunder, as if it had eyes, basically all of them were thrown into the middle camp of Abatai.

The continuous sound of explosions almost burst Abatai's eardrums, and the dazzling flames and soaring flames were like devil's flowers, blooming throughout the camp.

The terrifying scene in front of him immediately stunned him.

He was horrified to see that on the ground, the corpses of the soldiers who had been blown apart were shocking, and there were many wounded soldiers rolling on the ground with their limbs broken and wailing. There are even some soldiers who happened to be seen by Abatai, they were struck by the earth-shattering thunder, and their flesh and blood flew in an instant, leaving only the stumps and fragments, not humanoid at all, and their bodies were burned like charcoal, and at a glance, they were miserable.

And in the distance, the rows of tents next to each other have been burned like a fire dragon by the raging fire, and a large number of soldiers, like headless flies, rushed to the fire, but to no avail.

Seeing that the winner general Abatai was standing outside the burning tent of the Chinese army with a stunned face, a Niu Lu Ezhen with a burnt beard on his face hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to ask for his life.

"Spare Belle! The enemy attacked the camp one after another, and our camp suffered heavy losses. What will our army do next, I hope the commander will give the order quickly! ”

Hearing his anxious question, Abatai's heart was like frying oil, he forced himself to calm down, and immediately shouted loudly: "Pass on our military order, and all the combat soldiers and horses in the camp will immediately go out, and use the strength of lions to fight rabbits, and go all out to kill those Tang soldiers who dare to sneak attack our army, and we must cut them all into pieces!" ”

"Order!"

"The rest of the auxiliary servants and others should immediately take precautions, try their best to extinguish the tents that have been burned, put away all the unburned tents, and the soldiers will scatter and retreat, dodge in time, and avoid the range of fire as much as possible."

"Order!"

"In addition, urgently send people to notify the left and right battalions, so that they can come to help as soon as possible, and at the same time be prepared to avoid a sneak attack by the Tang army!"

"Order!"

In this camp, after a long battle, in such a blazing camp, after the early panic, it has begun to come to its senses, and the whole army and soldiers began to assemble neatly and quickly, and roared out of the camp together.

In the Qing army's formation, more than 2,000 cavalry took the lead, took the lead from the barracks that had already hurriedly moved away from the rejected horses and took away the spikes, and rushed out quickly, and immediately rushed towards the Tang army auxiliaries who threw earth-shattering thunder.

At this moment, more than twenty earth-shattering thunderbolts roared down from the sky and accurately hit Abatai's middle camp.

There was even a sky-shattering thunderbolt, which exploded at the gate of the camp very coincidentally, killing dozens of cavalrymen who rushed out of the camp gate at the end and had no time to dodge, as well as a cavalryman who was marching backwards.

was rear-ended and bombed by the Tang army, and before leaving the camp, many cavalry were folded, which made the originally high-spirited Qing army immediately fall into a small chaos.
