Chapter 316: Rush Attack
The entire Huaxia Army has already shown an offensive posture, attacking and defending at the same time.
The Qing army attacked in Raozhou, Jiangxi, the Huaxia army defended in Zhejiang, and the territory of Fujian defended, and at the same time the army attacked, while the Qing army in Jiangxi was gathering troops and attacking towards Fujian.
The meeting point of the two sides is Tingzhou Mansion or Ganzhou Mansion.
The two armies of Hu Kui and Ba Yalu turned around and besieged the Qing army near Tingzhou Mansion, and the Qing army, which was dominated by cold weapons, could not resist the Huaxia army, but in two days, all 15,000 troops of the Qing army were annihilated, and Tingzhou Mansion was empty.
Once again, Ryumu escaped the fate of being destroyed.
After obtaining the Tingzhou Mansion, Zhang Qiang sent the cavalry brigade to Baghyalu to protect Longwu and the various officials of Longwu Nanming to retreat to Jianning Mansion, while Hu Kui led the 1st Field Brigade to build fortifications in Tingzhou Mansion and prepare to meet Duoduo's army.
A few days later, the Duoduo army arrived, followed by Geng Jingzhong's 30,000 Han army banner troops, and 20,000 newly attached Ming army green battalion troops.
In this way, Duoduo had an army of 200,000 and immediately surrounded the Tingzhou Mansion.
Hu Kui is an offensive talent, so his fortifications are not as strong as Liu Liangzuo, who was warned by Zhang Qiang, only dug a trench 500 meters outside the city, arranged some troops to guard, and retreated all the field brigades into the city.
This is also related to the fact that Hu Kui did not have many soldiers and horses.
Coupled with the Ming army troops and young men who were willing to guard the Tingzhou Mansion, he only had 11,000 people in his hands.
Outside the city, only some troops were symbolically deployed, and the cavalry and cold weapons troops inside the city were only deployed as mobile forces.
And he didn't know that he was facing Geng Jingzhong, who was good at siege.
At this time, Geng Jingzhong's department looked at the Tingzhou Mansion and said to Duoduo: "Lord Belle, the slave will take the Tingzhou Mansion for you, it can be done in one day, at most three days." ”
"Well, take the Tingzhou Mansion as soon as possible, and then we have to find the main force of the Huaxia Army, only by defeating their main force and holding the traitor's leader, Zhang Qiang, can we fundamentally disintegrate the enemy." Dodor.
Duoduo was not very interested, the reason why he listened to Hong Chengchou's order this time, although Hong Chengchou was already the crown prince at this time, the secretary of the military department and the right deputy capital imperial history, but with his noble status as a prince, Baylor, etc., he had never listened to the order of such a Hanchen, the reason why this is so is because Zhang Qiang killed Azig, he and Dolgon, Azig is a brother born to the same mother, which made him disregard his identity, regardless of the war in Guangxi, and personally led the army to encircle and suppress Zhang Qiang.
Geng Jingzhong knew what was on his mind, and he didn't say much, "Yes, Lord Belle, the minions will let the sons and daughters attack." ”
Duoduo nodded, holding the reins in his hand, and looked at the Tingzhou Mansion City in the distance expressionlessly.
Geng Jingzhong hurriedly mobilized his troops.
Half an hour later, the cannon was pushed to a place two miles away from the capital of Raozhou, and then 20,000 Ming troops lined up behind, and behind them were more than 10,000 Han army banners to supervise the formation.
The earth-shattering sound of the "knock knock" war drums.
The green battalion adapted by the Ming army, driven by the interspersed Han army flag cavalry, held weapons and rushed to the capital of Tingzhou with trembling.
On the upper floor of Fucheng City, Hu Kui was also dispatching troops.
The cannon was pushed to the city wall, and the small cannon followed the musketeers out of the city into the trench fortifications.
"Kill-" Before these Huaxia troops crossed the bridge of the moat, the green battalion of the Qing army began to attack.
After running for less than three minutes for the 500-meter race, they reached the 100-meter point of the trench, and at this time, they encountered various obstacles, and they used knives, guns, and axes to chop those obstacles and clear them.
The screams were repeated, and it was not the Huaxia army in the trench that caused them damage, but the damage caused to them by the mechanism next to the obstacle.
In many places, there are not only horse pits, but also pits, and there are bamboo pins under the pits, and some pits are just pits that can be stepped into with one foot.
But they did not dare to stop, and continued to advance, clearing the twenty-meter distance, losing several hundred people, at which time the archers in the trenches began to shoot arrows, and the musket battalion, having crossed the moat, entered the trenches one after another and opened fire.
Casualties began to mount.
In less than half an hour, the Qing army's green battalion had suffered nearly 2,000 casualties.
With Geng Jingzhong's retreat, the green camp of the Qing army retreated like a tide, leaving only thousands of corpses and thousands of wounded screams.
Seeing the heavy casualties for the first time, Geng Jingzhong frowned, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he said to the herald beside him: "Attack the enemy with artillery." ”
"Boom—"
The sound of artillery sounded, the smoke of gunpowder was dense, and the projectiles flew sideways, and all the Huaxia troops, except for the artillery, took refuge in the bunkers of the positions to avoid the shelling.
The artillery shells fought for half an hour, and many places in the trenches were destroyed, but the casualties were not large, and the artillery had already entered the artillery position and was counterattacking the enemy's artillery, they were field guns with horse-drawn carts, although the range was not far, but for the Qing army's green battalion troops who attacked for the second time, they still caused a lot of damage.
Thirty three-pounder guns, eighteen six-pounder guns, and six nine-pounder guns, in the face of the Qing army's attack, coupled with the counterattack of the musket battalion, and the attack of the archers in the trenches, the Qing army's green battalion was defeated again.
This time the casualties were doubled, more than 4,000 people, and many Green Battalion soldiers were already frightened.
Duoduo rode over and yelled at Geng Jingzhong, "Don't be tempted, attack with all your strength, attack from all sides, they have few troops and can't resist us." ”
Geng Jingzhong said: "Chirp." ”
Then he said to the herald beside him: "Attack from all sides, twelve cannons on each side, four thousand green battalions, two thousand Han army flag firecrackers, cavalry preparation, and if you have the opportunity, surprise the enemy artillery." ”
"Yes." The heralds sped away.
Hu Kui was a little anxious when he saw the enemy's troop movements, but he couldn't adjust it either, and he only knew when he fought.
As a result, except for the side that faced the enemy head-on, which was more tenacious, the other three sides suffered heavy losses.
One of his field brigades had only a thousand musket troops, and the others were cold weapons units.
The battle lasted two hours, and he had to withdraw the troops on the other three sides to the city, because it was necessary to leave the troops to cover, and the covering troops were completely annihilated, and the only good thing was that the moat was not rushed by the enemy, and the drawbridge had long been pulled up.
This time there were nearly 4,000 casualties, the archers were almost completely wounded, the young and strong and engineer units, and the baggage troops also suffered a lot of casualties, the artillery damaged twenty cannons, only eighteen cannons were pulled into the city, and several cannons were captured by the enemy.
The musketeers suffered more than 300 casualties.
The defensive line outside the city was completely lost.
However, the enemy did not get any favors, the Qing army's green battalion troops were disabled, and less than 1,000 of the 20,000 Qing army's green battalion troops were still intact, and the others were either killed or wounded, and had lost their combat effectiveness.
The Han army suffered 4,000 casualties, the cavalry of the Han army banner suffered 1,000 casualties, and even the Manchu cavalry of Duoduo suffered several hundred casualties.
At this moment, Geng Jingzhong's face was very ugly.
Despite the victory, more than 20,000 people were lost, and the battle was not over, the enemy was still fighting and there was still a city to defend.
Geng Jingzhong saw Duoduo's eyes and almost ate him.
"Attack again, we must take the capital city of Tingzhou tonight." Duoduo gritted his teeth.
"This, Lord Belle, the minions' men and horses have suffered heavy losses, can they attack again tomorrow?" Geng Jingzhong looked up at Duoduo expectantly.
"I don't have time for you to rub it in, I still have to go to Zhang Qiang, the leader of the Huaxia Army, if this place is not captured for a day, my army will not be able to attack the enemy deep into Fujian. If you delay the king's great affairs, go and receive your death. ”
