Volume 1 Fledgling Chapter 038 Rogue Fighting

Dolgon naturally knew about the appearance of reinforcements for the first time, but when he heard the names on those banners, he was stunned for a long time, and laughed randomly: "Dordor, your chance for revenge has come!" ”

Duoduo was puzzled when he heard this, so he asked: "Fourteenth brother, I heard that Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou of the Ming Dynasty are both famous generals, and the Qin army and Shaanxi soldiers under their command are not inferior to Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, and their arrival is not good news for us. And what does it matter if I take revenge on this? ”

"Haha, you just have to raise troops to fight, there will definitely be people you know, even if all the people on the banner are here, aren't there still Yang Sichang and Yang Hongzhang? Don't you want to capture the two of them alive in exchange for Yue Tuo? ”

"I don't know if Yue Tuo is dead or alive, but since Yang Hongzhang is here, he can't let him run! I'm going to take someone to spy on the truth and the truth. ”

At the entrance of Andingmen, Zhu Youzhen stood nervously at the gate of the city tower, and Fang Zhenghua next to him was explaining the situation on the battlefield to him: "Your Majesty, it is Sun Ge Lao's men and horses who are camped near Deshengmen in the west, and Shanxi Town, Tianxiong Army and Guan Tieqi from south to north at one time......

Jiannu is dispatched, it is the elite of the white flag, there are at least 3,000 people, and the leader of the troops should be Duoduo! Let's hope the support forces can hold back! ”

Zhu You glanced at Fang Zhenghua and was very dissatisfied, Fang Zhenghua immediately realized that he couldn't tell the truth in front of the emperor, he still had to pick up some good ones, so he hurriedly remedied: "Your Majesty, looking at the bright armor of the reinforcements, they must have good combat power and will definitely be able to win!" ”

Zhu Youzhen ignored him, snatched the clairvoyance in Fang Zhenghua's hand, and began to look for the main generals of both sides on the battlefield.

Duoduo held a fire in his heart, he was ordered to rectify the two red flags in danger, and then relied on the battle of Linqing to let the soldiers of the two red flags have a recognition of their ability to lead, but in order to intercept Hu Dawei in a hurry, he was ambushed by Yang Hongzhang, and lost 2,000 people in Funiu Mountain, not to mention, and was delayed for a whole day. It was this delayed day that made Hu Dawei have a calm arrangement, and let Lu Xiangsheng rush over from Baoding to attack him. Originally, Duoduo planned to lead his troops to Hejian when he retreated from Julu, but as a result, because of the addition of Sun Chengzong and Guanning Tiecai, Dolgon suffered from the enemy on his back, and Duoduo had to give up the idea of attacking Hejian and followed Dolgon directly to Beijing City, but he didn't expect to meet Yang Hongzhang here, and he naturally couldn't let it go.

There is no city wall, no cement pier array, no trenches, he wants to see what Yang Hongzhang can do to resist the most elite Qing soldiers, Duoduo has thought about it, no matter how much price he pays, he must kill this team at one time, and then capture Yang Hongzhang in the chaos of the army, and completely beat the morale of this team to the bottom.

The three thousand elites immediately began to charge after leaving the camp, and two miles away could allow the cavalry to reach the highest speed. It's just that Duoduo thought very well, but Yang Hongzhang was not able to let him get his wish. Just as Duoduo led the cavalry to rush out of the Qing camp, the Ming artillery opened fire. Conventionally, the first is a solid buckshot with a marked distance. When more than 40 red-hot lead bullets pounced on the Qing cavalry like a fire dragon, even Zhu Youzhen, who was in the distance, was shocked to see it. And the effect was something he had never seen in his life, on the route of the lead bullet, at least more than 100 cavalry companies and horses were hit by lead bullets and overturned on the spot. Those Qing soldiers who fell to the ground and had not yet died were trampled into a puddle of mud by the horses that came after them in an instant.

But the cavalry charge did not end, but continued to charge towards the Ming positions. However, they were soon greeted by the second round of artillery shells of the Ming army, and more than forty flowering shells exploded in the ranks of the cavalry! This time the damage was far more bloody than the first one. The cavalry of the Qing army fell almost in pieces.

However, the Qing army's charge did not stop there, but became faster and faster.

Soon, however, they were forced to stop again, as the Ming artillery was pushed out in front of the wagons with the dragon trapped. Behind the carriage stood a full eight hundred musketeers, who were lined up in three rows, and the dense ranks opened fire at the same time!

Unlike artillery strikes, which have certain restrictions, flintlock strikes are currently the cavalry at the forefront of the Qing army. As a result of the volley of 800 flintlock muskets, the position of the Ming army was filled with smoke, and the front of the Qing army almost all fell.

Under such a high-speed charge, the cavalry behind had no reaction at all, and at the same time the first row fell, the second part followed, and the result was that the second row also fell, and then the third row galloped by, and the third row with good technology was able to pass, and it was almost not until the fourth or even the fifth row stabilized.

But they are still greeted with flintlock pistols!

Two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred steps! The cavalry of the Qing army, with their tenacity, was approaching the Ming army step by step. Fifty steps, forty steps, thirty steps, those cavalrymen who were lucky enough to dodge the cannonballs and flintlock pistols finally approached the Ming army infinitely.

The expected palm thunder was finally thrown out, and then a salvo of three or four thousand bows and arrows from the rear was fired.

The first wave of Qing troops that rushed into the Ming army within forty paces was almost completely wiped out! Then the flintlock muskets rang out, and the cavalry farther away was completely disrupted, and those who tried to assault the Ming army from both flanks suffered the same treatment.

The charge was completely stopped, and the next thing was the return fire of the Ming army, and after the flintlock pistols had cleared all the Qing troops within two hundred paces, they quickly detoured to the flanks to help the cavalry, and the artillery opened fire again!

It was three thousand men that Dordort brought out of the camp, and at least a thousand fell in just a moment. Duoduo estimated the muskets of the Ming army, and also had a certain understanding of palm mines. But when more than forty artillery pieces were fired two miles away, Duoduo suddenly felt that this might not just be Yang Hongzhang's guy.

But the cavalry that rushed out could no longer be pulled back, and Duoduo hoped that the artillery of the Ming army would be mediocre, and the result was a blanket of flowering shells from the second round. Artillery, muskets, palm mines, far, middle and near three levels perfectly covered the entire Qing army's charging team. Those Qing soldiers who were lucky enough to pass the three levels would still face a salvo of thousands of archers!

After a failed attempt at a flank assault, Dordor immediately ordered a retreat! However, the Ming army refused to give up, and as the Qing army retreated, the artillery of the Ming army continued to advance with those unloaded carriages.

Then, in the stunned eyes of Zhu Youzhen, Dolgon and others, more than 40 artillery pieces began a new attack on the Qing army camp.

Fortunately, the blow lasted less than two rounds before it stopped. Duoduo looked into the distance with palpitations, he was sure that the opposite side must be Yang Hongzhang, Yang Hongzhang who specializes in fighting bad battles. Only he would hide behind so insidiously and adopt this always undamaged style of play.

Zhu Youzhen on the city tower was fascinated. It's really enjoyable, the charge of the Qing army was broken up in an instant, the Ming army had almost zero casualties, and Duoduo died down!

Didn't you say that the cavalry of the Qing army was invincible? How could they be so vulnerable in front of these Ming troops, if the Ming army was like this, then how could the Qing army be able to enter the pass?

Emperor Zhu Youzhen saw it very well, but the ministers didn't know the specific situation, only knew that the horses' hooves rumbled, and then the artillery rumbled, and the entire city wall kept shaking, and they didn't know who lost and who won. However, some people soon guessed from the emperor's expression that the reinforcements might have won. So more people breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Youzhen put down his clairvoyance and said to Fang Zhenghua beside him: "Quick, quickly send someone to contact the reinforcements outside the city, discuss with them, and launch a decisive battle as soon as possible, I want to see with my own eyes that my Ming army defeats the hateful Jiannu!" ”

"Your Majesty, although the reinforcements have been victorious, but they have come from afar, and they are sleepy and tired, we should let them camp calmly and rest for a while, and when they are settled, they will naturally send someone to contact us. As for the decisive battle, it still needs to be discussed by Sun Ge Lao and others in advance. Although the new reinforcements seem to be very combative, after all, the number of people is limited and can only play a role in containing the periphery. Therefore, the emperor should also return to the palace with peace of mind and wait for the good news, and the slave and maid will contact Sun Ge Lao and the support army outside the city as soon as possible. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, Admiral Fang is here, and now that reinforcements are coming, Beijing City must be safe and sound, and the emperor also asks to return to the palace to calm the hearts of the army and the people!" Seeing this, Xue Guoguan hurriedly admonished.

"Please ask the emperor to return to the palace to reassure the army and the people!" The ministers hurriedly agreed.

"If I want to go back to you, I want to be here to witness the defeat of Jiannu. I don't believe it, he Dolgon can have three heads and six arms, what can I do, hum......"

Everyone was speechless, and said in their hearts how this emperor is like a child, it wasn't like this before, before the reinforcements came, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were the same as the emperor, and they were like quails one by one, looking like the sky would fall at any time. This has just arrived with 10,000 reinforcements, but it was just a small contact, and he has completely changed into a person.

This fierce battle almost settled the hundreds of thousands of Ming and Qing troops on the city wall outside the Dingmen Gate and witnessed his beginning and end, from Duoduo leaving the camp to Yang Hongzhang ordering the artillery to rest, it was just a cup of tea, although Duoduo and his cavalry came and went like the wind, but they were also quite heavy losses! In particular, the blow to morale is very large.

Duoduo, who returned to the camp, looked unconvinced: "Brother Fourteen, it's Yang Hongzhang's kid, let me go out with two red flags, I must kill him!" ”

"Duoduo, calm down, now that the two red flags have suffered more than half of the casualties after several major battles, the enemy is coming from afar, we should avoid its edge, and wait until the evening Maybe we can find an opportunity to attack at night." Dolgon was also in the camp just now, and if the casualty rate continued, the remaining 10,000 people of the two red flags would be wiped out in less than an hour.

The two sides seem to have a tacit understanding of each other, like two heavyweights in the ring. In fact, Yang Hongzhang's heart is not calm at this moment, and his bluff is due to the inspiration he was at the mouth of the Yangtze River. But I don't know what this trick will do. But the worst fears didn't come up. Dodor led three thousand elites to the test exactly what he wanted to see. Today's team is suitable for a battle of this scale, if Dolgon sends 10,000 cavalry to rush over, Yang Hongzhang's two wings will definitely be pierced by the other party in an instant.
