Chapter 178: The Battle of the Blue Hoof Pavilion

But is that really the case?

A trace of doubt spread in Zheng Chenggong's heart.

For no other reason, it's just too easy.

He secretly said in his heart: "Could it be that the battle of Qingzhou City really broke the backbone of the Qing army." ”

Zheng Chenggong still had doubts in his heart. But the soldiers below couldn't hold it anymore. They all came out to ask for battle, and even Liu Guoxuan, Zhou Quanbin and others also asked for battle.

There is no other reason, military merit is important.

No matter what the imperial court, at the beginning of the founding of the country, the gold content of military merits was the highest. At this moment, seeing that Ma Sanbao's 3,000 people swept through thousands of troops, after saying no, after this battle, there was a hereditary title of disregard. How can they not be jealous, they can't think too much, almost two words are engraved in everyone's pupils, that is, military merit.

Even King Han came out to speak.

For Han Wang, any opportunity to put gold on his face should not be missed. He said: "Lone is the king of Joseon, and the people of North Korea suffer from this, how can Lone not be saved." If the king of Yue refused, he alone brought his troops and horses to the rescue. ”

Zheng Chenggong listened to King Han's words and secretly sneered in his heart.

In terms of honor, Zheng Chenggong's King Yue is comparable to this King of Han, and it is even said that the position of King Han is slightly higher than that of King Yue. But when it comes to real power, Zheng Chenggong beat King Han. All that King Han has is just a false name. It's just that now, Zheng Chenggong is also moved.

If you take the grain and grass for your own use, you can alleviate the logistical crisis. Isn't it a great good that the army is directed at Pyongyang, and the tiger looks at Liaodong, and all of Korea has it. Even if there is a small setback, with the elite of the headquarters, it will not lose too much, and it is still possible to at least keep the south of the Han River.

In this way, there is nothing that can not be done.

"Okay." Zheng Chenggong decided to pursue.

However, although he made up his mind, he still had a caution in his heart, so that a group of men and horses were in front, the Korean imperial army was in the middle, Zheng Chenggong was second, and Liang Huafeng was ordered to hold a heavy army behind.

In the eyes of others, it is probably because Liang Huafeng has experienced a hundred battles and made many military exploits since he entered North Korea, and other generals have long been unhappy, so this is just a balance. Only Zheng Chenggong decided that Liang Huafeng would be used and experienced, even if something changed, with Liang Huafeng in the back, it would be a foolproof strategy.

The Xia army passed through Seoul without staying, leaving the baggage in Seoul, only carrying dry rations and weapons, and quickly pursued the Qing army, and this situation soon reached the hands of Azig.

Azig drew all the cavalry, about 40,000 men. These 40,000 people, all of them are elites, and half of them are soldiers of the Eight Banners, Mongolian soldiers, and the Northwest Han Battalion. All of them are battle-hardened. It can even be said that these people are the last capital of Azig's department.

Azig wanted to use them to flip

Root.

This time, the knife dragged by the knife meter is this knife.

At this moment, Azig was waiting for this opportunity, and after he heard it, he laughed and said, "Zheng is a thief. ”

Immediately, an order was given, and the cavalry was divided into twelve teams, one team of thousands of people, divided the left and right of the road, and suddenly killed, and the Xia army was about to be cut into several sections. And Azig's first target is Ma Sanbao.

At this moment, Ma Sanbao ordered his subordinates to rest their horses.

But it was Ma Sanbao who broke more than a dozen formations in a row, although most of the Korean army was a fish belly, but there were also a few people who were sleepy and lacking, and all the Korean troops had dispersed, and for a while Ma Sanbao couldn't find where the enemy was, so he sent out scouts everywhere, and he led the men and horses of his headquarters to rest for a while, drink water and eat dry food.

The place where Ma Sanbao rested was a post station.

Ma Sanbao looked up and saw the plaque on the post station, which read Biho Pavilion.

He suddenly felt that this place name was familiar, thought for a moment, and suddenly thought, "Could it be here." ”

Zhang Xuan asked people to compile ancient and modern wars, which were used as teaching materials for martial arts. It's just that the ancients recorded the war, and it was too simple. Therefore, the wars of a long time are exaggerated and cannot be trusted, but in modern wars, there are many people who have experienced them and there are many credibility in the compilation.

And the battle of Bihu Pavilion is a war in the Wanli period, only a few decades ago, although there are no survivors. But after all, it's not far away, and the compilation is quite detailed. It is a key battle in the battle of Wanli aid to the Japanese, the Ming army entered Korea, and the battle was connected, so that the Japanese army north of Seoul was defeated, Li Rusong heard that Seoul was empty, and took thousands of soldiers to Seoul successively, and the Japanese counted all the men and horses, 40,000 people ambushed Li Rusong here in the Biho Pavilion.

In the end, it ended with Li Rusong breaking out of the siege.

Calculating the distance, as a post station, Bihokwan is in the northwest direction of Seoul, dozens of miles away from Seoul, which is this location.

However, these Ma Sanbao are not interested, because the Battle of Biho Pavilion is an ambush battle. This made Ma Sanbao blessed to the heart, and secretly said in his heart: "All this is too smooth, could it be that Dongyu is under the trap?" ”

When people move from one victory to another, it is difficult to raise the heart of worry, Ma Sanbao himself may not be a wise general, but he is not a fool, at this time, his heart also faintly reacted. For a while, cold sweat broke out on his back, and his face changed slightly.

But he didn't dare to let the soldiers around him see it, and there was still some hesitation in his heart, first, he was worried, this was just his cranky thinking, and second, in danger, he couldn't show a trace of panic, otherwise it would make the soldiers around him even more overwhelmed.

It's just that things are only worse than he thought.

Before he could come up with any solution, he heard reports from all directions, and two cavalry on the left and right rushed over

There are at least more than 10,000 riders.

For a while, the soldiers around Ma Sanbao were shocked.

Ma Sanbao couldn't hide it anymore, and immediately turned over and said, "Withdraw." ”

Without saying a word, the three thousand cavalry turned around and left.

It's just that the Qing army has been planning for a long time, and they have laid such a big bait, how can they let them come and leave when they want.

Before he could escape from Lixu, a cavalry behind him bit the tail of Ma Sambo.

Ma Sanbao's department, after all, is newly built. Compared to the cavalry of the Qing army, it is a step worse. Immediately was caught off guard. Ma Sanbao didn't say a word, let his subordinates go first, and he took his own soldiers to break off.

Ma Sanbao has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and was selected by Zhang Xuan from among the ten thousand armies. He took hundreds of personal soldiers, did not retreat, but advanced, and collided with a Qing army, Ma Sanbao used a bow in the distance, changed hands when he was close, and then used a saber and a spear.

Along the way, there is no sense of rush.

Whether it is bows and arrows, handcuffs, spears, sabers, they are all very proficient. Everywhere you go, you don't miss anything. Suddenly, a gap was punched out of the Qing army, the generals captured the flag, and several generals were killed, so that this group of cavalry had to be temporarily avoided.

It was also the Qing army's counteroffensive, the brigade pressed, and the army did not nominate another general to preside over the overall situation.

If the situation is evenly matched, maybe the Qing army on the opposite side has collapsed.

It's just that in such a situation, the courage of a husband is really nothing. He had just freed his hands and was about to join the large group of men and horses, but when he looked back, his eyes were about to split, but he saw that several groups of cavalry of the Qing army had already divided the cavalry of the Xia army.

Although the two sides are still fighting, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the cavalry of the Xia army has gone, but it is just a stubborn resistance.

Seeing this, Ma Sanbao immediately prepared to rush in, but was stopped by the soldiers on the left and right, and said: "General, we can't rush in like this, but one will die." ”

"Am I a man who fears death?" Ma Sanbao said sharply.

"But it's useless for the general to die here. I also ask the general to keep a useful body for the future, I think even the brothers in the army think so. Left and right said.

At this moment, Ma Sanbao has the heart to die, he rashly advances against the enemy, and loses his achievements, according to military law, even if he does not die, he may be deprived of all his fame. When the time comes, it is better to die here, just look at the guards around you, and your heart moves slightly, many of these people are guards who follow the time, if you die here. They are all certain to die.

A hint of stealing life was born in his heart, and he said secretly: "You must always protect the lives of these brothers." If military law wants me to die, I will die without hatred. If there is an opportunity to make meritorious contributions. I will avenge this day. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Go." ”
