Chapter 15 The Eight Banners cannot be defeated

Since the Qing army entered the customs, the most tenacious enemy it has encountered is Li Zicheng

But Li Zicheng couldn't let the Qing army be defeated, and the fiercest battle of a stone was only after the Qing army went into battle, and the battle was finalized.

Never before had Azig received such a frightened letter for help. His first feeling was that the people below were cowardly, not that the enemy was too powerful.

Under the victory of a hundred battles, not only the soldiers of the Eight Banners, but even Azig himself has developed a kind of arrogance that will win.

He was reluctant to rush into the enemy's position, not because he felt that he couldn't rush through, but because he felt that the casualties were too great and the gains outweighed the losses.

Especially the next tough battle in Tongguan City, which made Duoduo feel a little distressed.

So Azig was just reluctant to kill the children of the Eight Banners, but he never thought that he would not be able to defeat the soldiers of the Xia Dynasty.

And this time, thousands of men and horses were sent to this mountain.

But it seems that he is as stable as Mount Tai, after all, this hill is not too high, that is, there is a flat land on the top of the mountain, which is the best place to arrange artillery positions. The bigger role is gone.

Send more manpower, but it can't be opened.

It is also for the same reason that the topography restricts the input of personnel. At most, there are only a few thousand men attacking the mountain, and there are no more.

But with the same strength, how could Xia Jun defeat his Eight Banners elite.

"It's the Zhejiang army, it's the Zhejiang army." The messenger who had come to ask for help shouted.

When Azig heard the Zhejiang army, his heart moved slightly, and then he scolded: "Fart, the Zhejiang army has long been dead." ”

Azig was sixteen years old at the time of the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, and he still remembers how his father Khan was furious, killing nine generals and suffering thousands of casualties. Many generals were also demoted.

It is a rare bloody battle since the rise of the Liaozuo Army, among which the Zhejiang Army and the Sichuan Army are still fresh in Azig's memory, and even every time he joins the army when he is young, his father Khan educates his children with this battle every time, and he cannot underestimate the enemy.

Therefore, he was also very clear about the later situation of these two armies, and knew that the Tusi soldiers of the Sichuan army were almost wiped out, and the Zhejiang army had no successor after Qi Jin's death. At this moment, a Zhejiang army suddenly appeared, how could he believe it.

"Eight kings, the small one guarantees his life, it is definitely the Zhejiang army, if it is not for the eight kings to behead me, it's just that the mountain brothers can't support it, and ask the eight kings to rescue quickly." While talking, kowtow.

In just a few moments, the scalp was broken.

Azig said, "Alright, immediately pick up the men and horses and go with me." ”

"Eight kings, at this moment, just send a team of men and horses to support, why not take the eight kings personally?" Huang Shu hurriedly persuaded.

Huang Shu dedicated the iron mold casting cannon method, although it was only an experiment and had not yet been mass-produced, but it was important for Azig to rely on this work.

On weekdays, Azig still respects Huang Shu after all, but at this moment, Azig is like an angry lion and says, "You don't understand

。 ”

He went back to his teenage years, when he was by Nurhachi's side during the bloody battle of the Hunhe River.

Seeing that the children of the Eight Banners suffered heavy casualties, many generals came to persuade their father Khan. Saying that the city of Shenyang has been captured, there is no need to continue to attack the Ming army. But they were all flatly rejected by Nurhachi.

When there were only a few of his brothers around his father Khan, his father Khan explained the reason to them, saying: "The Ming Dynasty has a vast land and a prosperous population. If our country wants to attack the Ming Dynasty, it must cut its branches and leaves like cutting down a big tree, and then cut off its roots. Don't strive for gains and losses in one time and one place. ”

"But there is a kind of person who must be eradicated no matter what the cost."

"It's a general who dares to fight in the field with our army."

"Most of the generals of the Ming army are cowards, but there are also some heroes, their heroes, and my enemies. If these can't be killed, after they go back, they will be valued by the Ming Emperor, and we will face such an army in the future. ”

"Therefore, cowardly people, such as the likes of ancestors and people, flee a thousand times, ten thousand times, and there is no need to be afraid, and such as the Sichuan army and the Zhejiang army, they must be killed and killed, and no one will be left."

"Did you hear me?"

"The child understands." Azig said along with several of their brothers.

This principle is also the general principle of the later Qing army's operations, if the cowardly fleeing generals, the Qing army does not care, but the generals who dare to resist to the end, must be killed, such as Man Gui, such as Zhao Shujiao, such as Lu Xiangsheng.

And now it's the same.

Since the entry of the Eight Banners, it has played a prestigious name. Also a weapon. Before every soldier went into battle, he had heard that the Jurchens were less than 10,000 and invincible.

But everyone in the world has a head, two arms, and two legs, and they can be stabbed to death with a single knife.

Where are there any invincible people.

But this victory also establishes a psychological advantage over the enemy.

Therefore, the Mongol cavalry was defeated, the attached Han army was defeated, and Azig didn't care, but the Eight Banners must not be defeated.

Otherwise, it will affect the morale of the army too much.

It can be seen from the influence caused by the two famous kings of Li Dingguo in history.

Azig will not allow the Eight Banners to be defeated.

Immediately send troops.

It's just that as soon as this side moved, the Cao Ying cavalry came out. The two sides fought together in the north of the nameless hill here.

For a time, the center of the battle between the two sides was seriously cheap, and it was actually moved to the east side, instead of the easiest to pass through the new set line.

Cao Ying's elite ride is never weak.

All the previous wars ended hastily. It's not that Cao Ying's cavalry is weak, but that Zhang Xuan doesn't want to lose too much.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan looked like he wanted to eat these thousands of Eight Banner soldiers, so he naturally tried his best.

Luo Dai's department and Yang Shenzu's department fought together with the Mongolian cavalry.

Honestly,

The Mongol cavalry has long since lost its bravery. The way of riding and archery is still good, but because the Mongols are on horses, they use some soft bows, the range is not far, and the strength is weak.

In hand-to-hand combat, it is not as good as Cao Ying's.

Cao Yingjing's current combat power is only stronger than that of some Ming Dynasty border cavalry.

And the cavalry of the border army can fight the Mongolian cavalry, and the cavalry of Cao Ying can naturally suppress the Mongolian cavalry.

In just a moment, Azig had no choice but to send the elite of the Eight Banners under his command.

For a moment, Azig regretted it exceedingly.

He regretted that in order to assault Zaoyang, he left the brigade under Xiangyang City, although he only brought tens of thousands of cavalry, of which the Eight Banners headquarters accounted for the vast majority. But it also left him without cannon fodder.

can only use the children of the Eight Flags to fight hard.

As soon as the Eight Banners cavalry rushed up, Yang Shenzu and Luo Dai immediately came under great pressure.

The elite of the Eight Banners is really not in vain.

They didn't care about it at all, and came to a hedge with Cao Ying.

I saw a total of forty or fifty thousand cavalry, and when they opened the distance, it was like a flood rushing straight down, and countless horses stepped on the ground, and the vibration was transmitted several miles away, and it was still clearly felt.

As soon as the blades of the two sides touched, countless people fell off their horses one after another, including Cao Ying's people and the soldiers of the Eight Banners.

Anyone who falls off the horse is almost dead.

Even if he doesn't die from falling off his horse, he dies from the galloping of ten thousand horses.

Zhang Xuan watched from a distance, and saw that between heaven and earth, within the peaks on the east and west sides, it was almost hidden by war horses and flags.

No other figures can be seen.

It seems to be the reason for the venue. The distance at which the cavalry charged was limited. Many of the cavalry continued unabated, almost up the hill and then down again.

Dozens of flags were displayed back and forth.

It's just that soon, Zhang Xuan can see the victory.

The side that falls to the bottom is the banner of Great Xia.

Zhang Xuan looked at the situation on the battlefield, he didn't think that Cao Ying's elite cavalry was inferior to the elite of the Eight Banners, but that the number of Great Xia cavalry was above and inferior.

Zhang Xuan immediately sent troops to advance.

Tens of thousands of soldiers lined up, neat and tidy formation, as if a wall, according to the pattern of a small phalanx of 500 people, a large phalanx of 3,000 people, and an army commanding several phalanxes, almost all over the ground.

On the premise of maintaining the formation, the speed of the army's advance was not fast. There is a feeling of being like a forest. Slowly but firmly advancing northward, little by little, the space for the cavalry to move was compressed, and the space for the Qing army to rescue the nameless mountain peaks was also compressed.

Although the number of Cao Ying's cavalry is not large, after receiving the help of the infantry soldiers, they have also eased up for a while, and it seems to have a firm foothold.

Seeing this situation, Azig had only one thought in his heart, and said secretly: "Decisive battle." ”
