[234] Kowloon Bay blocked

In the first battle of Liao Kuoshan, the Ming army lost more than 7,000 people, which was the heaviest loss of Song Youliang's cavalry. Song Youliang blamed himself, at the mourning meeting of the fallen soldiers, Song Youliang howled and cried, and then cut his hair and acted as the head, still in the fire, and said: "Song Youliang underestimated the enemy, so that 7,000 strong soldiers died on the battlefield, and he should have apologized with death, but the world has not been decided, so he can only cut his hair first to apologize." ”

After that, Song Youliang said loudly: "Let us mourn for the soldiers who died in battle!" As usual, the eyes on the wall, the hands clasped in front of the chest, and the sound of the bell stopped ten times! As he spoke, Song Youliang first closed his eyes and clasped his hands around his chest. The soldiers in the audience also closed their eyes one after another

Bell ~ bell ~ bell ~

The bell rang three times, and the soldiers in the audience opened their eyes one after another, and at this time, three of the soldiers who were still with their eyes closed and their hands around their chests were particularly dazzling

"Finesse!" The soldiers of the Ming army burst into shouts, and countless sharp knives hit the chests and backs of the three people, and it was not until this time that the three suddenly realized that the so-called silent mourning and the so-called bell stopped ten times were all temptations~~

One of the three black men said proudly: "Since you have taken it, if you want to kill it, you will have to scrape, listen to it." ”

"Kill them~~ Avenge your dead brother!" The soldiers shouted in unison

"Silence!" The officers in the army shouted

"Shhhhhhhhhhhh

The big black man looked around and said with a smile: "The Anguo Gonggong army is really good, no wonder it is invincible!" I'm dead! Do it! ”

Song Youliang said indifferently: "We killed you to avenge the soldiers of our army, and your army will also kill the soldiers of our army to avenge the soldiers who died in the battle of your army." When is the time for retribution? How much more blood will we Han people shed? ”

The black man said calmly: "Since ancient times, one will succeed in ten thousand bones, slaughter millions, and be the best of the best!" ”

"!" Song Youliang scolded: "What kind of ability is it to kill your own people? If you are a man, you should expel Hu Lu like Huo Quai. ”

The black man was stunned when he heard this

Song Youliang said: "I'll let you go, you go back and tell Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo and other four generals to return to obedience as soon as possible, I look forward to the moment when I will join them in the field of prancing horses and chasing and killing Hulu!" ”

The black man was stunned again, and then arched his hand and said, "Then thank you!" With that, he strode out of the Ming army camp with his companions

The black man is Li Dingguo's deputy general, and after he returned to the camp, he relayed Song Youliang's original words to Li Dingguo, and Li Dingguo was thoughtful. At this time, Sun Kewang came to Li Dingguo's camp, and the deputy general relayed Song Youliang's words to Sun Kewang

Sun Kewang said disdainfully: "This is a word that disturbs the hearts of our army, if a seventh person hears this, I will behead you~" After that, Sun Kewang said: "I have already decided to set up an ambush in Kowloon Bay and fight a decisive battle with Song Youliang." ”

"Kowloon Bay?" Li Dingguo's thoughts immediately returned to the war

"Not bad~ It's Kowloon Bay!" Sun Kewang said: "Kowloon Bay is a cliff that has been carved out as a quarry, and it is not afraid of fire. On the opposite side of Kowloon Bay is a wooded Yanbei Mountain, which happens to have endless rolling logs. As long as this battle is fought~~ Yunnan will still be the world of our Great West. ”

Sun Kewang made full preparations for this blockade battle, and he sent people to Kowloon Bay and Yanbei Mountain on the opposite side a few days in advance, and prepared to lay down a large number of rocks and rolling logs. At the same time, a large number of spies were also dispatched, some of them day and night to explore the surrounding paths, and once found, they were immediately blocked with boulders and large logs.

Sun Kewang organized the troops into four detachments and lined them up, led by Sun Kewang himself, Ai Nengqi, Li Dingguo, and Liu Wenxiu from south to north. In order to enhance his combat effectiveness, Sun Kewang specially recruited 5,000 wolf soldiers from the border between Yunnan and Guangxi to join the Great Western Army

The wolf soldiers originated in the middle of the Ming Dynasty and were the local armed forces formed by the Tusi of the Zhuang people at that time. It is also called "soldiers". The "wolf soldiers" are mainly distributed in the northwest of Guangxi and some areas in the south of Guizhou, and are called "wolf soldiers" because of their bravery. The Ming Dynasty court sent "wolf soldiers" to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to fight against the Japanese and suppress the Yao uprising in Guangxi. In the first battle against the Japanese, the "wolf soldiers" fought bravely and skillfully under the leadership of their leader, Mrs. Washi, and were able to defeat the crowd with a small number of people, and won nine out of ten, which made the Japanese frightened. After the end of the war, the "wolf soldiers" were sent by the imperial court to settle down on some transportation arteries in the remote mountainous areas of Guiping. In the Ming Dynasty, there was once the title of "Guangxi wolf soldiers are strong in the world", Guangxi troops are one of the most elite troops in the Ming army, once in the Ming Dynasty when the Ming Dynasty was about to fall, in the Ningyuan War, the invincible Qing Eight Banner Army was defeated at that time, it is said that Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning iron cavalry has 6000 Guangxi wolf soldiers as the main force. The wolf soldiers are very powerful, and as soon as they arrive at the Liaodong garrison, they will fight hand-to-hand with the Qing army, and the combat effectiveness of the Guangxi soldiers can be seen.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wu Sangui and Guo Yunlong, as the vanguard, entered the area of Kowloon Bay, and they were immediately discovered by the vigilant Scottish sentries, and Sun Kewang immediately ordered the brave general Ai Nengqi to block the attack. Ai Nengqi commanded the infantry to form a phalanx with spears and block the northern end of Guo Yunlong, leaving no room for the Guanning cavalry to make a detour, forcing them to attack along narrow and rugged paths.

Seeing that the number of the Great Western Army blocking the road was small, the self-confident Guo Yun dragon cavalry launched a charge, but due to the narrow battlefield and the soft ground, the number of cavalry of the Guanning Army who threw themselves into the charge at one time was very small, and the impact speed could not be raised, and the impact force formed was very limited. As a result, the cavalry lost their troops in front of the spear phalanx of the Onishi Army, which was in strict formation.

Seeing that the morale of the cavalry was frustrated, Sun Kewang decisively sent Liu Wenxiu to lead the army to support Ai Nengqi, Guo Yunlong was immediately defeated, and many cavalry fell into the swamp.

"Where will the enemy go~" Ai Nengqi carried a bow and arrow, rushed down from Yanbei Mountain, and while charging, he wanted Guo Yunlong to shoot arrows. The first arrow hit Guo Yunlong's shoulder armor, and the second arrow hit Guo Yunlong's thigh.

Guo Yunlong yelled: "It's a hero, don't let go of the cold arrow!" ”

Ai Nengqi picked up a Pu knife from the ground, jumped up suddenly, and shouted, "Take your life!" ”

Guo Yunlong saw the person clearly, and was about to raise his knife to fight, but his left rib was stabbed by a big western soldier, "Ah~" Guo Yunlong let out a muffled roar, the sound was like an old moo, and he no longer had the strength to be Ainengqi's steel knife

Bang~~ Guo Yunlong's head was cut off by Ai Nengqi, Guo Yunlong died, and the remaining five hundred cavalry were also annihilated

◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆

"Brother Guo~~" Song Youliang hugged Guo Yunlong's head, crying even more sadly than Wu Sangui, and Guan Ningjun was all moved

cried for a long time, but it was Wu Sangui who came to comfort Song Youliang and said: "Grandpa, people can't be resurrected after death, and if Brother Guo knows about it, he can be relieved." ”

Song Youliang stopped crying a little and said: "First the ambush in Liaokou Mountain, and then the ambush in Kowloon Bay, both times caused heavy losses to the Guanning army. If you continue to let Guan Ningjun be the vanguard, then none of you will be able to return to your hometown in Liaodong, so let's transfer you to the rear team! ”

Zu Dashou said angrily: "What did Grandpa say? Since the day he joined the army, the men in Guanning have known that they eat severed meals and do life-saving work. Who thinks about going home all day? When Grandpa says this, he just looks down on us! ”

Wu Sangui also said: "Grandpa's words are wrong, we Guan Ning boys are all proud of establishing meritorious deeds on the battlefield, and the horse leather shroud. Unless we all die in Yunnan, this pioneer I, Wu Sangui, will be decided. ”

Song Youliang wiped his tears and said, "If the Ming Dynasty has a good general, why worry about the uncertain world?" It's just that the terrain of this Kowloon Bay is dangerous, and although we have a large army, it is difficult to overcome! If it is a strong attack, I am afraid that there will be countless casualties! ”

Topographically, if the Ming army wants to attack the Great Western Army, it must not only pass through a pebble beach at the bottom of the valley, but also through a canyon in Kowloon Bay, which is not deep, but steep and narrow, like a bottleneck, greatly limiting the expansion of the Ming army's strength. Sun Kewang also changed his tactics of waiting for the Ming army to attack, and ordered the soldiers of the Great Western Army to advance along the slopes on both sides in a calm and orderly manner, always occupying a high and sub-zero position. Moreover, there was no gap between the various troops, and the battle formation was always maintained, such as Lin's spears and swords shining with a terrifying light, and Song Youliang felt for the first time that he might have to lose the battle

"Then let's take a gamble!" Song Youliang looked at the Great Western Army coming from all over the mountains and fields, and ordered: "Organ guns will do their best to suppress the enemy troops on the mountain. The musketeers all loaded their bayonets, and after four volleys, charged me up the hill. In this battle, either we die in the valley, or the thieves die on the hillside! ”

"Roar~"

呯呯~呯呯~

Dada

The Ming army seized the advantage of firearms and constantly fired at the high slopes on both sides, although the Great Western Army was condescending, but in the face of the Ming army's powerful firepower suppression, it also suffered heavy casualties. Most of the soldiers of the Onishi Army underestimated the musketeers of the Ming army, who were armed with bayonets, thinking that these musketeers would be vulnerable in hand-to-hand combat, but they suffered a great loss.

"Kill ~ Kill me ~ " In the melee in the valley, the most showy person was Qin Liangyu, the chief soldier of the stone pillar and the female general of the white pole soldier, seventy-year-old Qin Liangyu was wearing armor and holding an ash iron spear, under the protection of a group of family members, while commanding things and going up the mountain step by step

With the cooperation of the white pole soldiers, the Ming army gradually gained the upper hand, and the high places in the valley on both sides were occupied by the Ming army

Sun Kewang had to order the Great Western Army to retreat and return to the area of Bainitang to re-array

"Kill~ Avenge Brother Guo!" Wu Sangui, who finally rushed out of the valley, couldn't wait to lead the Guanning cavalry out of the valley and chased in the direction of Bainitang. Soon, Wu Sangui discovered that the right flank of the Great Western Army, which had not yet completed the formation, had an opportunity to take advantage of

"Yang Kun ~ Xia Guoxiang, come with me!" Wu Sangui roared and killed the right flank of the Great Western Army

In fact, this flaw was a decoy deliberately left by Li Dingguo, seeing Wu Sangui take the bait, Li Dingguo immediately ordered the flag to wave, and two thousand wolf soldiers pointed at a three-meter-long spear with their fingers, stood up from the grass, and the iron spearhead shining with cold light was aimed at Wu Sangui's Guan Ning army
