Gao Yigong angrily kicked Liu Guoxuan a few times, because this guy's escape and the collapse of the team he led, this guy almost killed him, if it weren't for the cold arrow that flew from nowhere in the final stage and shot Duolong to death, he might have fallen into the siege of the Qing army and died in battle.

"General, General Wang Neng is here," Gao Yigong, a member of the pro-soldier team beside him, whispered.

"General Wang Neng is the general of the Qing army who defected to the battle."

Gao Yigong had a very disgusted expression, he especially hated this kind of general who defected in battle, what if he defected to others in the future?

For this kind of repeated villain, he is very unwelcome, but now he can't have any unwelcome mood, otherwise no one will take refuge in him in the future, someone will take refuge, this will seem that you are famous, with fame you can get up, others give you face, you give others face, everyone can be better, otherwise in the land of Daming, what is his high merit.

So although Gao Yigong didn't want to see him, he had to pretend to be smiling and warmly greet another hero of this battle, Wang Neng, if he hadn't suddenly defected, even if his side defeated Duolong, with the morale and strength of the Dashun army, he would not be able to go back and fight back, and defeat the Qing army with strong troops and weapons and equipment that were one level higher than the Dashun army, not to mention that the Qing army still had nearly 5,000 real Manchu soldiers.

Five thousand Manchu soldiers, in the past, they were able to chase more than 100,000 Ming troops around, but now they have been defeated.

"The sin general can meet General Gao and wait for the general to deal with it." Wang Neng looked frightened and knelt down in front of Gao Yigong.

"Haha, General Wang, please hurry up, if there is no General Wang who understands the righteousness and finally turns against him, our army still doesn't know if it can defeat the Manchu Jurchens, General Wang is our great benefactor, come here, reward General Wang with five hundred taels of silver, and bring my white horse, such a hero, can be worthy of my BMW that travels thousands of miles a day."

Wang Neng was not hypocritical, he immediately stood up, and said with a fist hug without being arrogant or humble: "Thank you for the general's reward, now that we have nowhere to go, please take the general in." ”

Gao Yigong clapped his hands, "Great, welcome General Wang to join our Dashun Army Loyalty Battalion, General Wang, I will definitely report to the General and ask for credit for you." Turning around, he said to the soldiers beside him: "Take General Wang down to rest, I'll go to see the battlefield ahead," and then turned to Wang Neng and hugged his fist and said: "General Wang, rest for a while, I'll deal with military affairs." ”

Wang Neng took a step back, stretched out his hand and said, "General Gao, please." ”

Gao Yigong was full of ambition to check the casualties of the troops he led.

After Wang Neng took his leave, he also returned to the barracks of the troops under his control.

This time they suddenly turned against each other, although they were prepared, but because of the terrain of the battlefield, they were still counterattacked by the artillery of the Qing army on the other side, and there were many casualties.

Three thousand soldiers and horses, and killed five hundred Manchu soldiers of the prison army, and the last count, the entire battalion was left with 1,600 soldiers, with more than 500 casualties and serious damage to weapons, after all, most of the battles in the second half were a battalion of them against seven or eight thousand Qing troops, and one of the two field brigades of Gao Yigong was disabled, and one was severely damaged, and after the pressure was reduced, there were many deserters, which not only did not help them, but interfered with their operations against the Qing army, which was also the reason for Wang Nengbu's heavy losses.

After sending 500 soldiers and horses to collect the artillery battalion of the Qing army, they also collected some people and war horses, which brought more of the artillery battalion of the Qing army into the bag.

He also sent 500 soldiers and horses to clean up the battlefield, take care of the prisoners, and retrieve the intelligence officers of the Huaxia Army who had not been killed in other battalions and the soldiers who had been rebelled, and obtained 200 usable soldiers, and these soldiers went to persuade the captured soldiers of the two battalions, and in less than half a day, he collected more than 3,000 soldiers and horses from the prisoners of the Qing army, including cavalry, arquebusiers, and artillery.

The others were all Qing troops who had nothing to do with them, and Wang Neng left them to Gao Yigong to clean up.

He waited in the camp with five hundred soldiers and horses.

When it got dark, I finally straightened everything out.

Using the captured prisoners, he expanded his battalion from only one battalion to two battalions, one battalion of fifteen hundred arquebusiers, plus five hundred artillery battalions, such a battalion of two thousand soldiers.

The two battalions reached 4,000 soldiers and horses, and the rest were 300 cavalry, 500 infantry, and 200 people to transport supplies and baggage, grain and grass, and the total strength reached 5,000 soldiers and horses.

His action made Gao Yigong look jealous and helpless, who let the family have an innate advantage to persuade those captives to take refuge in him.

Wang Neng is now taking refuge in the Dashun army, and he can't go back on his word to attack others, even if he attacks him, he doesn't know if he can fight, he can only sneak attack, but in this case, he must kill five or six thousand people, and his current situation in the army can not be killed, otherwise as long as a few Qing soldiers run away, the other Qing soldiers will not defect to him or the Dashun army in the future.

Gao Yigong examines his troops.

The field brigade of the new army was disabled, 16,000 troops, and now there are only about 6,000 people left, about 4,000 dead and wounded, and about 5,000 people who have escaped.

More than a thousand people were captured and thrown into prisoner camps, and these guys will only be cannon fodder in the future.

The artillery suffered almost all casualties, and only a little more than a hundred artillerymen escaped the fate of being killed, and were slipped out of the horn Grariti, and now they are trembling at Gao Yigong, waiting for Gao Yigong to decide their fate.

The cavalry only has two or three hundred cavalry around him, all wounded, and the infantry only has about 1,000 troops left, but the remnants of Liu Guoxuan, who fled before, were defeated, and there are still 1,500 people.

Gao Yigong directly sent them to clean up the battlefield, guard the prisoners, run the supplies, and reorganize the field brigade with more than 1,200 troops.

Although the secondary field brigade fought fiercely, the number of people who survived was more than the elite field brigade that fought with muskets and artillery on the opposite side of the enemy, nearly 3,500 troops, so that the soldiers of the elite field brigade took them to reorganize into a field brigade, and the artillery was included, and the 300 infantry and Liu Guoxuan's 500 remnants were defeated, and 50 cavalry were returned, so that the strength reached more than 6,800 people.

Gao Yigong personally led them, and led them with more than 100 personal soldiers.

The logistics, custody of prisoners, leading infantry, and other tasks were handed over to Liu Guoxuan.

During the second period, Gao Yigong had already sent scout cavalry back to the rear of the battle, asking Li Guo to send troops to support him.

The total strength was only more than 8,700 troops, and after the first battle, more than half of the soldiers were killed and wounded, and Gao Yigong no longer dared to attack forward.

But he is also happy, this battle, defeat the enemy, heavy damage to the Qing army, Gao Yigong estimated that this time the Qing army killed and wounded at least more than him, 5,000 Manchu Qing soldiers must have gone and never returned, the one who escaped was just Ma Bao's coward, it is estimated that it is good to be able to take away 3,000 soldiers and horses, the other Qing soldiers were either captured, or scattered, it is estimated that the Qing army in the Pingdingshan area is now going to sing the empty city plan.

The most important thing is that he used 20,000 soldiers and horses to completely annihilate a new military town of the enemy, which is something that has never happened for the Dashun army, and it is very exciting news.

There is also a credit that he did not hide privately, Duolong died, Babutai died, this is a great achievement, his future reputation may surpass Li Guo because of this battle, and his status in the loyalty camp may be equal to Li Guo.
