Chapter 245: Bloodless Blades
The next day, that is, early in the morning of the ninth day of November, the sky was overcast, and the "Red Banner Army" all set out to target Qingcheng.
The camp and the erected yurts were not dismantled, but were kept to use this ready-made camp to transfer the seizures and arrange for the wounded and sick to rest when they returned to the division.
With the aftermath of yesterday's great victory over the Karaqin Tartars, the advancing infantry and miscellaneous servants were full of enthusiasm.
Song Peng raised his head, more than 2,000 people immediately sang a cut of plums, "snowflakes fluttering in the north wind whistling ......" in the heroic song, there is a fiery red army in the ice and snow is advancing with their heads high.
At this time, the cavalry brothers, under the leadership of the energetic Hanzi, Wang Zhanpeng, Yang Danian and other officials, marched out of the infantry team ten miles away to carry out a sweep with the general flag as a unit.
It is a pity that no Yurts of the Karaqin people were found along the way, and only a mess left behind by the hastily transfer of the Tatars was found in many places.
Yesterday's fierce battle had spread through the mouth of the defeated army in Zhuoerbi, and in the southwest of Qingcheng, the yurts that thought they might encounter the Ming army packed up their belongings that afternoon, drove cattle and sheep, or gathered in Qingcheng for protection, or migrated north in the hope of leaving the battlefield.
When the Ming army came, the scale of the unearthly was only about 3,000 men and horses, and the number still did not have a numerical advantage compared with the cavalry of Karaqin Qingcheng.
However, yesterday's war showed the prestige of the "Red Banner Army", and the Karaqin people have already talked about the red change.
In addition, overnight, many Taiji who swore to live and die with Qingcheng yesterday and were willing to be loyal to Bulgadu Daiqing said goodbye without saying goodbye, and the morale of the people in Karaqin was completely lost.
The order of Qingcheng had fallen into chaos, and there were Karaqin cavalry who rushed into the homes of the fallen centurions and thousand-commanders in search of gold and silver treasures, and then mounted their horses and fled.
The vendors in the city got the news last night that none of the shops were open for business today, and even the owner didn't know where to hide?
At this time, it is the time to reflect the command ability of a general, and if you choose to defend the city, you should prepare in advance, and if you choose to retreat, you should say that you can not drag mud and water.
However, the benevolent brother of Burgadu suffered from gains and losses, delayed all night and did not come up with a decision for a morning, he may have wanted to run but was reluctant to have the materials in Qingcheng, and he wanted to defend but did not have enough confidence.
But one thing is certain, Bulgadu never thought of rushing out of Qingcheng again and bringing the 3,000 cavalry that could be organized to fight the "Red Banner Army" again.
Because he knew that the quality of these more than 3,000 people who followed Zhuoerbi yesterday was inferior, and they would not be the opponents of the "Red Banner Army".
Huang Han led the army to within 20 miles of Qingcheng, and the 11th group of sentry detectives of the "Red Banner Army" with the general flag as the unit arrived one or two hours in advance, and they had already circled Qingcheng several times.
Because Wang Zhanpeng received the task of blasting and attacking the city during the strong attack, he personally led the cavalry soldiers who had participated in the two blasts to Qingcheng for a field trip.
In the end, Wang Zhanpeng came to the conclusion that this so-called city really did not need to spend gunpowder to blast it, because this city was so broken that it was simply devastated, and the rammed earth city wall in the low place could jump over it directly to hit the horse.
The "Red Banner Army" held back enough energy to come to Qingcheng to kill the Quartet, but it backfired, the imaginary fierce battle was not carried out, and Bulgadu saw that the "Red Flag Army" was really close to Qingcheng Twenty miles, and finally gave up the illusion that the Ming army might not come to capture Qingcheng with one blow.
He didn't care about the seriousness and immediately led more than 1,000 people from the headquarters to flee to the east, he knew that with his own strength and prestige in the Karaqin grassland, he might not be able to get along, and he was ready to go to the master of the Dajin Kingdom.
This kid Bulgadu didn't dare or have time to carry out a massacre, he actually didn't dare to provoke the "Red Banner Army", and he didn't choose to kill people and set fires.
Because he knew that in case the angry "Red Banner Army" pursued him relentlessly, he ran to Liaodong for more than a thousand miles, and he thought that Ningyuan could still have Ming cavalry to intercept it, and Jinzhou could also send men and horses to intercept and kill, and it was really difficult to say whether he had the life to flee to the territory of Dajin Kingdom.
He also had a concern, if the women and children who were thrown behind were provoked by the "Red Banner Army" in order to take revenge on all the prairie laws, they would be guilty of a great sin.
Bulgardu saw that he had a purpose, so he led a thousand men and ran eastward, and this army had no weight but more than two thousand spare horses carrying grain, grass, gold and silver treasures.
Taiyoshi led by example, even his own women were abandoned, and he only brought his four minor sons, who were able to ride horses.
Of course, the light cavalry under his command did not dare to bring his wife and daughter, and only three or four hundred eldest boys who were about to reach adulthood took their weapons and rode on war horses and followed their father on the way to escape.
The other big and small Taiji, who had not made the decision to flee last night, were dumbfounded, and they did not dare to stay in Qingcheng when they saw that Bulga had run away, so they opened the Mongolian packing cart one after another, and drove the cattle and sheep to the north and west to the east, almost as if they were scattered and fled.
Huang Han laughed dumbly when he got the report, no wonder the Jiannu, who had a population of only hundreds of thousands, beat the Tartars every time they wagged their tails and begged for mercy, it turned out that these people didn't even have a trace of cohesion.
He ordered the cavalry not to disperse the pursuit, but to take the means of encirclement and annihilation, and try to eat the whole of the few fleeing tribes and take all the property and cattle of the Tartars.
Presumably, the Tartar light cavalry who escaped from Qingcheng could not still have empty bags, they would definitely do their best to carry valuables with them, and leaving a Tartar at this time would not be less.
After the "Red Banner Army" often fought in the Guannei, it was natural for the Jin Army to earn gold and silver treasures, and it was natural that they had beaten so many Tartars yesterday and basically did not find that the gold and silver were really uncomfortable.
Now I heard the teacher say that there will be a lot of seizures in the next battle of the Tartars, and their eyes are shining one by one, and they are all rushing to the north.
At this time, the sky was not beautiful, and the sky that had been cloudy all morning finally fluttered and snowflakes fluttered, and it didn't take long for them to be flying all over the sky.
In fact, fighting on the grassland is always the leading role of the cavalry, as long as the cavalry does not take the initiative to attack, the infantry is basically useless, so Huang Han sent cavalry to expand the results and then led the infantry to take over Qingcheng to implement the law of the grassland.
Who knew that as soon as he entered the city, he was blocked by a large group of Mongols who knelt down to worship, and Fang Liandong reacted okay, and immediately led his sword and shield hands to surround the head of the family in the middle.
It was obvious that everyone who came was bare-handed, Huang Han let Fang Liandong relax, and he rode a war horse with four guards around this group of Mongols.
It turned out that there were three or four hundred young adults here who were worried that they would be killed by the "Red Banner Army" regardless of whether they were indiscriminately killed, so they took the initiative to show up and kneel down to ask for forgiveness.
Huang Han didn't know what the situation was, and said, "Some of you who can speak Chinese came out to answer." ”
A Tatar who was about thirty years old could speak Chinese but his tone was stiff, and he knelt down and climbed a few steps to the front and said, "My lord, the little one can speak Chinese, and the big man can ask the little one if he has anything." ”
