Chapter 253: Defeat and Escape from Mani Mountain

"Li Xiaojun, who entered the dog, is really fucking capable of fighting!"

After seeing with his own eyes the fierce and powerful attack power of Li Xiao's Tiger Army, Abatai was shocked. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Abatai had the impression that there had been too many battles, and as long as his own soldiers rushed hard, those Ming troops who were not even stable in formation often collapsed immediately. In the next battle, all I have to do is a one-sided pursuit.

And now, the combat effectiveness of Li Xiao's Tiger Army has far exceeded his imagination.

What worries Abatai even more is that after the initial battle, the battlefield advantage began to tilt towards Li Xiaojun, who was tightly coordinated and more orderly, like a moving killing machine, and a large number of Qing infantry lay down a row of stacked corpses along the row of shield walls with no end in sight.

No way.

No, you can't fight like this.

We must quickly change the situation of such an unfavorable battle!

"Pass on my military order, the white swing teeth and elite soldiers in the back of the battle are all rushing into the formation, and they must rush away to defeat the Ming army's battle formation!"

Abatai, who frowned deeply, wiped a handful of rain on his face, and immediately ordered in a loud voice.

The 100 soldiers who were originally personal guards with white swing teeth, after hearing the order, immediately loudly agreed and left.

These white baya soldiers are all bright armor, each of them is wearing three layers of armor, the outside of the white lacquer armor, inside is a layer of iron-inlaid cotton armor, and the innermost is also covered with close-fitting leather armor. Each white-toothed soldier has a huge bronze mirror on his chest in front of and behind his heart, ear protection, neck protection, and eyebrow protection, and on the fine iron helmet that has been pulled down the armor, the high red tassels are flying in the wind like a jumping flame, and everyone has a flame on their backs and flags are hunting and dancing in the morning breeze.

The 100 tall and stout White Baya soldiers all carried heavy weapons in their hands, some with huge hammers, some with thick iron whips, some with thick tiger spears, and some with thick long-handled knives or tiger tooth knives. In addition, each White Tooth Soldier has throwing weapons such as throwing axes, throwing knives, and thistle terrestris, which can be used to attack from a distance.

These 100 white swing tooth soldiers who quickly squeezed to the front of the battle formation threw the flying axes and iron thistle bones and other weapons in their hands at the heads of the Ming army's spearmen exposed outside the shields, and fiercely threw them!

Cold, sharp, death-screaming axes and bones slashed at the faces and necks of the spearmen on the other side, who were focused on stabbing at each other. These white armors were thrown extremely accurately, and there was almost no bullet missing, and a terrible wail suddenly sounded in the Ming army's formation, and dozens of spearmen fell in response.

The white-toothed soldiers who had succeeded in the blow roared loudly and became murderous, each of them wielding heavy and huge weapons, and jumped into the flawed Ming army formation, and opened a killing ring.

These white-toothed soldiers wearing three-layer armor like steel beasts, where the weapons in their hands were waved, in the battle formation of the Ming army, the shields were broken, the blood was sprayed and the corpses were spurted, and the voices were repeated again and again.

The rest of the Manchurian horse armor soldiers and infantry soldiers, as well as the Mongolian Tatar infantry, as well as the Han army in Ma Guangyuan, saw the sudden change in the situation on the battlefield, and they couldn't help but lift their strength, and they also roared angrily, jumped forward, and fiercely attacked the tiger army on the opposite side.

"Sentry on the rampage! Intercept and kill the white tooth soldiers! ”

As soon as Li Xiao gave the order, the 600 rampant sentry posts, who were already unable to hold back in the platoon, suddenly jumped to the front of the battle like a fierce tiger out of the mountain, and strangled with the white swing tooth soldiers who were slashing fiercely.

The two sides of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the most elite heavy infantry, finally fought directly.

These are also all wearing three layers of armor, tightly wrapped in stainless steel armor from head to toe, only revealing two eyes, like a mecha monster armed to the teeth, and like a miniature tank, each holding a tiger knife, a tiger spear, a long-handled sword, a heavy military scythe, etc., slashing and killing the white swing tooth soldiers who are rising, and their strong combat power is not inferior to the white swing tooth soldiers.

Compared to the 100-strong White Swing Tooth Soldiers, the Sentry had an absolute numerical advantage, so they quickly gained the upper hand on the battlefield. Wherever the sharp sword light went, there were corpses, flesh and blood were flying wildly, and stumps were flying.

Chatta, the deputy sentry commander of the rampant sentry, personally rushed to the front.

Fighting with the elites of these same clans, he has long hair and Hanfu, married a Han woman, and gave birth to children, he has long recognized that he is a member of the Han people, so when he fights with these former fellow clansmen, he has long lost the slightest psychological burden.

A steel tiger knife was danced vigorously by him, but in an instant, two white tooth soldiers and one infantry soldier were cut by him, and blood was spilled. Chatta, whose whole body was splashed with blood, was even more like a bloodthirsty beast, rushing back to the Qing army's array.

Seeing that the winner would be so heroic, the rampant team members below were even more courageous, shouting loudly and slashing at the Qing army next to them.

The battlefield advantage that was originally tilted towards the Qing army was quickly regained by the Ming army.

At this point in the war, the battle loss ratio between the Ming and Qing dynasties, on average, gradually reached the level of 1 to 3, and in some local areas, it even reached 1 to 5, and the Ming army began to gain the upper hand more and more obviously.

Seeing that the Qing army's comprehensive reserve forces had been put into this infantry strangulation battle, and that the infantry had gradually gained the upper hand, a sneer crossed Li Xiao's face, and at this time, he finally used a killer move.

"Xuanhu re-rode and obeyed the order! Bypass the infantry battle formation and attack the enemy's main position from the left flank! ”

"Order!"

Tian Wei, the commander of the Chifeng Battalion, led the 600 heavy armored cavalry who had been standing on the left side and were heavily armoured, roared past the edge of the infantry battle array, turned an oblique arc, and began to trot, accelerated, and rushed towards the enemy general Abatai, who was standing behind the Qing infantry and surrounded and protected by the 600 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry.

"The Manchurian cavalry sentry obeys the order! Bypass the infantry battle formation from the right side, attack the right flank of the enemy's main army, and flank the Xuanhu heavy cavalry! ”

"Order!"

The Manchurian cavalry sentry post had a loud roar, and 900 Manchurian cavalrymen wearing white flag armor immediately roared and galloped away from the right side.

Seeing that the infantry had fallen back into bitter fighting, and that the battlefield advantage was rapidly tilting in favor of the Ming army, Abatai's lips trembled and his face was full of anger.

And when he saw that from the opposite Li Xiao's army, the heavy armored cavalry and the Manchurian cavalry rushing out from the left and right sides were striking at the left and right flanks of his position with a fierce roar, Abatai's pupils suddenly contracted.

Li Xiao, who entered the dog, actually wanted to capture the thief and capture the king first!

There are only 600 Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry in light armor, but it can be seen that nearly 1,500 Ming cavalry are coming towards him, and what is even more terrifying is that there are 600 light cavalry, still in reserve, and have not been dispatched.

In other words, the cavalry in his hands now has no strength to compete with so many and well-equipped cavalry of the Ming army. If you resist, you will only be a dead end.

Finished.

That's it.

Abatai's face was filled with horror for a moment.

What to do?!

In the drifting heavy rain, the Ming cavalry that attacked from both sides, like two huge black arrows, approached Abatai rapidly in the deafening rumbling sound of horses' hooves, and the time left for Abatai to think was extremely limited.

Abatai turned his head sharply and looked at the steep and vague Mount Mani to the south, his teeth gritting.

"Dashuai, quickly retreat, otherwise it will be too late!" On the side, the Han army Ang Bangzhang Jingma Guangyuan, who was under the protection of several Han guards, yelled at Abatai with an anxious look.

Remove?

Can it really be withdrawn?

If they retreat, wouldn't these infantry, who were fighting hard with the Ming army, completely become pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered? !

"Master, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of some burning! The situation is so critical that even if we do not withdraw, it will be difficult for these infantry to escape. If I hesitate any longer, I'm afraid the whole army will be wiped out here! Ma Guangyuan obviously saw through Abatai's thoughts, and his voice was extremely restless and anxious.

Abatai glanced at this ruthless Han general with extremely complicated eyes, sighed, and finally made up his mind.

"Withdraw!"

"All the cavalry obeyed the order, and immediately retreated to Mani Mountain with Ben to preserve their strength!"

Abatai shouted almost desperately at the terrified Manchu cavalry.

The commander had ordered 600 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry to immediately escort Abatai in case of amnesty, and to flee to the south at Mount Mani.

"Withdraw, withdraw!" The Han army on the side, Ang Bangzhang Jing Ma Guangyuan, glanced at it coldly, and the Han infantry under his command who were still fighting turned their horses' heads with a loud shout, and fled with their own escort cavalry.

These Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry, which were basically light cavalry, deliberately made a big bend, bypassing the heavy cavalry of Li Xiaojun's Xuanhu who attacked from the south, and without looking back, they rushed all the way to Mani Mountain.

"! The Tartar who entered the dog, he escaped quickly, and he had the ability to fight with your grandfather, what kind of hero is he who abandoned his department and fled! Tian Wei, who led the army to catch up, was able to hold the mount that rushed forward, looked at the backs of the Manchu cavalry of the Abatai Department who had fled all the way, and scolded.

Next, the Xuanhu heavy cavalry and the Manchurian cavalry sentry immediately began to rush away on the back of the Qing infantry who had fallen into a panic because the commander had fled!

They poured out all their anger on these unfortunate fellows who had been abandoned by the Lord.

Countless sharp cavalry spears pierced the Qing infantry who were still fighting hard and caught off guard; Countless sharp riding knives slashed down from the back of the Qing infantry who were so panicked that they even forgot to dodge the action.

At the sound of horses' hooves, swords and guns, blood and flesh splashed, and the screams of the Qing army came and went.

The 1,500 cavalry struck a fierce blow in the back, causing the Qing infantry, which was already leaderless, to collapse immediately.

A large number of Qing troops began to turn around and flee immediately, throwing their swords one after another, and even some Qing infantry took off their armor as they ran, in order to escape as quickly as possible.

It's just that if you want to escape under the pursuit of cavalry, it's not easy to say!

A large number of Ming cavalry roared in pursuit, hacking or assassinating the Qing infantry who fled in all directions, and 600 flying harrier cavalry also rushed out to chase and kill the defeated Qing army all the way.

Among them, the most experienced in killing people were those Manchurian cavalry.

After catching up with the fleeing Qing army, they simply slashed or stabbed them in the leg and back, and then immediately fell away from the Qing deserters who went after them.

These seriously wounded Qing deserters did not die immediately, but continued to run as if they were not in pain, and then finally fell to the ground due to excessive blood loss and died completely.

The Qing troops who stayed in place, seeing that the fleeing Qing troops were pursued and killed by the Ming cavalry so fiercely, were so frightened that they threw down their swords and surrendered on their knees.

Hmph, that's when I thought of surrendering, it's too late!

The infantry of the Tiger Army, who killed the red-eyed tigers, did not want to give them a chance to live, slashed and stabbed all the way, the surrendered Qing troops wailed and were killed, and some of the Qing soldiers who saw the surrender and could not get it were already frightened and dizzy, and began to flee like headless flies again, until they were caught up and killed by the pursuing cavalry.

In the end, it was Li Xiao who gave the order to stop the killing in time, and only then did nearly 4,000 lucky Qing soldiers survive the defeat. Among them, there were more than 2,000 Manchurian soldiers, more than 800 Mongolian soldiers, and more than 1,000 Han soldiers.

At this point, Li Xiaojun, who had gone through this short and brutal battle, finally won a complete victory.

It's just that this pure cold weapon battle with these Qing troops who have been in battle for a long time has also caused a lot of losses to Li Xiaojun.

Among them, more than 230 shield men were killed and more than 400 were wounded, 420 spearmen were killed and more than 600 were wounded, 35 people were killed and nearly 50 were wounded, and dozens of cavalry were killed or wounded.

It's just that compared with the Qing army, which was already defeated, Li Xiaojun's losses were still quite slight.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Kill the Tartars, make a meritorious name!"

"Kill the Tartars, go to heaven!"

。。。。。。

In the still non-stop pouring rain, the victorious Li Xiao soldiers brandished their weapons, looked up to the sky and roared loudly, expressing their joy and passion for victory.

"Sure enough, it's a heavenly soldier, it's really powerful and unstoppable! These captives are also worthy of death. ”

It was only at this time that the Korean general Li Inzhan, who was standing at the head of the city and watching the battle blankly, seemed to have woken up from extreme shock, muttering to himself with an expression of admiration and awe on his face.

Then, he urgently took the guards and hurriedly went down the city wall to the palace in the city of Jianghua Island to inform the Ming army that the Ming army had defeated the Qing army and won the good news.

The good news brought by Li Renzhan made the royal family and relatives who were originally panicked in the palace and extremely worried that they had been captured by the Qing army, and everyone was immediately overjoyed and extremely happy.

"Thanks to the emperor's blessing, the Great Tomorrow soldiers came to help in time, and Jianghua Island City was finally defended!" Ayabara Maharaja Li Li, in a joyful tone with a crying tone, shouted to the sky.

Next to him, Fenglin Dajun Li Hao, Imperial Concubine Zhao, Shuyi Zhao and others, everyone also had tears in their eyes, and their mouths were full of joy.

After these people cried and laughed and expressed their joy, Li Li, the great prince of Ayabara, shouted loudly as if he had suddenly come to his senses: "General Li, since the Great Tomorrow Army has won now, then what are we still doing here, quickly open the city and welcome the Great Tomorrow Army into the city." ”

Li Renzhan and the royal family nodded again and again. Soon, a group of royal families, after urgently changing into dresses, personally came to the east gate of Jianghua Island City, opened the city gate, and welcomed Li Xiao's Tiger Army into the city.

"Li Li, the micro-minister of the lower country, is sincerely afraid, and has come to meet the general of the Celestial Empire, who saved my Korean army and people from fire and water, dare to ask the general's honorable name?"

Li Li, dressed in a luxurious dress, led a group of royal families, in the heavy rain, knelt respectfully in the muddy water outside the city, and bowed loudly and respectfully to Li Xiao, who was sitting proudly on a horse and slowly coming over. (To be continued.) )
