Chapter Forty-Eight: The Tartars Go Back to Their Hometown
Bai Wenxuan and Zhuang Youfu saw that Gao Junshan's war horse was frightened, and the two took the horse's head with them, and ran away from the horse, but before they caught up with the startled horse, they saw Gao Junshan fall off the horse, and the two rushed to Gao Junshan's side, jumped off the horse quickly, and squatted beside Gao Junshan.
"King Qin, King Qin!"
"Don't be nervous, I'm fine. Hurry up and help me up, the war is important! ”
Zhuang Youfu gently helped Gao Junshan up, Bai Wenxuan gave Gao Junshan a new horse, helped Gao Junshan to ride on the horse, and after Gao Junshan rode on the horse, he rode his horse and rushed to the front line, leaving the two guards far behind.
The battle ahead was raging, the Tiger and Leopard Army had all withdrawn from the battlefield, and Cao Wenzhao's heavy cavalry was fighting fiercely with Dayinbu's heavy cavalry.
I saw that Dayin Bu was challenging the three rebel iron horsemen, this person was very brave, and extremely powerful, the big knife in his hand weighed eighty pounds, a few rounds, and there was only one person left in the three rebel iron horses.
Gao Junshan saw it in his eyes, and he was so anxious that he didn't wait for the horse to stand firm, and raised his gun with both hands to shoot at Dayinbu.
The more he killed, the more excited he became, the more he wanted to kill, he raised his butcher's knife and slashed at the third man, this cavalryman was full of cowardice in the face of such a fierce and strong enemy, he couldn't even lift his weapon, he was scared to pee his pants, and the whole person was like a log waiting for someone to cut him.
Dayinbu shouted, the butcher's knife in his hand was about to cut this coward, however, Dayinbu's eyes suddenly went black, his eyebrows were hit by a neutrino pistol, and he fell to the ground in an instant.
Dayinbu's lieutenant, Yahizen, thought that Dayinbu had been killed by the frightened half-dead cavalryman, and he rode his horse madly and rushed to this side, shouting: "Dayinbu, Yahizen has come to avenge you!" ”
It's okay that he didn't shout, but this shouting attracted Gao Junshan's attention, and Gao Junshan raised his gun and sent Yaxi Chan back to his hometown.
The destruction of these two small leaders greatly dealt a blow to the enemy's will to fight, and although the enemy's follow-up troops also went down into the river, they were never able to cross the river beach again, and were crushed on the beach by Cao Wenzhao's heavy cavalry. After that, Gao Junshan used a neutrino pistol to shoot three murderous Tartars in a row, but unfortunately his guns could not be fired continuously, otherwise, more and more Tartars would be killed.
Rockets with black smoke from their butts flew again in the sky, and the third round of rocket attacks on the Tartars began.
After the sixth Tartar was defeated by the high mountain, a spectacular scene unfolded before his eyes. I saw a thousand rockets speeding towards the surface of the river after the second explosion, and in an instant the river was dyed with blood, and the Tartars who were crossing the river were hit by the rockets and fell into the water.
"Well played!" Gao Junshan shouted, and he raised his hand again to knock down the seventh tartar.
Dolgon was also frightened by the powerful blow of the rocket, and his men began to retreat, and the Tartars, who had already descended the river, turned around and ran.
The fourth round of rockets followed, and another tartar fell on the surface of the river, and the penetration of the rockets was very strong, not only penetrating the armor, but also some of the arrows piercing his mount after passing through the tartar, and the blood stained the river again, and the corpses of men and horses floated everywhere on the water.
Gao Junshan saw from afar that Dolgon on the other side of the river was beginning to flee, and he shouted: "Destroy all the Tartars on the riverbank!" ”
At this time, I don't know who shouted: "Kill the Tartars!" ”
As a result, the soldiers' will to fight was once again revived, and they shouted, "Kill the Tartars!" Kill the Tartars! ”
The Tartars, who were still on the beach, saw that Dorgon had fled, and completely lost the will to fight, and they also ran into the river one after another, and these Tartars only hated their father and mother for missing two legs.
The rebel soldier Naken spared the Tartars and killed them all on the riverbank.
In this battle, more than 1,300 enemies were destroyed, and 800 Tartars were killed by rockets in the water, and the results were brilliant. Why do you say that you have a brilliant record? There are 80 'swarms of bees' in Gaojun Mountain, and each 'swarm of bees' fires 12 rockets at a time, 960 rockets in one round of strikes, and nearly 4,000 rockets in four rounds of strikes, killing 800 enemies, that is, 20 percent of the lethality, not including the killing and wounding of horses and those who flee.
The strategic purpose of Gao Junshan had been accomplished, and after the disastrous defeat of Dolgon, he led the remnants of his defeated army to cross the river from the upper reaches of the Kushui River and fled back to his hometown, not daring to touch Guyuan.
Gao Junshan's men and horses also suffered a lot of losses, and after two battles, 2,000 soldiers were lost.
In this expedition, Gao Junshan has gained a lot.
First of all, the actual combat power of the 'swarm' rocket was tested, and the results of the test were very satisfactory to Gao Junshan, the deterrent effect on the enemy was obvious, and the lethality rate also reached the expected value.
Second, it stimulated Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong's will to fight, and improved their ability to coordinate operations with Red Army allies and other units.
In the end, it was a blow to Houjin, although it eliminated more than 10,000 of his people, which had little impact on Huang Taiji's military strength, but it also weakened their military strength to some extent.
On July 5 of the seventh year of Chongzhen, Yang Qi, the general soldier of Guyuan, beat gongs and drums at the border pass to welcome the triumph of the people and horses of Gao Junshan.
Gao Junshan also felt strange, why did Yang Qi come out to greet him?
The enthusiastic Hu Ying stepped forward to introduce Yang Qi to Gao Junshan: "King Qin, this is General Yang Zongbing." General Yang has already learned that you have won a great victory in the Kushui River, and he is here to wait for the victorious army. ”
Gao Junshan politely saluted Yang Qi, the chief soldier of Guyuan, and said: "General Yang came to the border in person, I don't know what advice he has?" ”
Yang Qi replied: "I heard the name of Commander Gao earlier, but I didn't expect to see it today, I was so young, I admired and admired!" You relieved the siege of Guyuan for me, and I didn't have time to thank you, taking advantage of this great victory in the Kushui River, I came to welcome Commander Gao and express my gratitude in person. ”
Gao Junshan said modestly: "General Yang doesn't need to be polite. The solid plain is solid, and it is not something that the Tartars can shake. The Tartars withdrew their troops, but they were afraid of General Yang's soldiers! ”
Yang Qi approached Gao Junshan and whispered, "Can Commander Gao take a step to speak?" ”
"Absolutely!" Gao Junshan replied, he didn't know the purpose of this Guyuan general soldier coming to him, and he really wanted to hear what Yang Qi would say to him.
So the two of them started talking in a secluded place.
"I don't know where Commander Gao plans to go next?"
"Pingliang, of course."
"Presumably Commander Gao doesn't know."
Gao Junshan asked vigilantly, "What's the matter?" ”
Yang Qi cleared his throat and said: "Last month, Governor Chen Qiyu surrounded Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng and other troops in Shaanxi in the Carriage Gorge. Your Pingliang has also been occupied by Hong Chengchou, do you think you can still go back to Pingliang? ”
The peasant army at the end of the Ming Dynasty had several ups and downs, and Gao Junshan had read it in history textbooks, so Yang Qi told him what happened, Gao Junshan did not have the slightest worry, he knew that Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong would not really surrender, and they would rebel within half a year. Pingliang was also served in a pot, which he didn't expect, he had to rush back to Pingliang as soon as possible and gather the rest of his body.
Gao Junshan said calmly on the surface: "Pingliang is lost, I will go back and retrieve him, what can I go back to." ”
"Naive, arrogant!" Yang Qi's face was gloomy and said, "Now there are my Ming army's army everywhere, even if you can get out of Guyuan, you won't be able to reach Pingliang." ”
Gao Junshan sneered: "Lord Yang doesn't need to worry about this. ”
Yang Qi didn't give up, he wanted to win Gao Junshan to his side: "Commander Gao, I'll give you an idea, I don't know if you want to listen to it." ”
"Junshan listens to you."
Yang Qi glanced around, and then said with confidence: "Now that Jianyu has committed the border again, the emperor has transferred me to guard the Shanhaiguan, and I will set off soon." I know that Commander Gao is full of blood, so it is better to go north with me to fight against Jianyu. This time, the high commander drove away the Tartars and captured tens of thousands, I can report to the emperor and ask for a reward for you, and it is also possible for the emperor to make you a deputy commander-in-chief. ”
Gao Junshan arched his hand and said: "I am very grateful to General Yang for his love, it is impossible for you to appease me." The emperor's suspicion is extremely strong, and it is not uncommon for the court to kill and surrender, that is, the court officials, since he ascended the throne, how many have been killed, how many have been changed, you don't know, right? ”
Yang Qi was helpless: "Since everything has been said to this point, I have nothing to say." For the sake of you helping me out of the siege, all the way back to Guyuan, the level of Guyuan will not be blocked, out of Guyuan, it depends on your creation, I wish you a smooth journey! ”
Gao Junshan bowed goodbye and said: "I wish General Yang a successful and victorious march to the north this time!" ”
Yang Qi was a little reluctant to leave Gao Junshan, and before parting, he said: "I know that Commander Gao is a person with great ambitions, and if my two armies fight in the future, I will not embarrass you, I hope you will remember." ”
"Thank you!"
As soon as Gao Junshan returned to the camp, he ordered Zhuang Youfu to take out the treasures under Yu'er Villa.
Yang Qi is true to his word, Gao Junshan on the way back, all the way smooth, to the Pingliang boundary, but also by the people to welcome.
Pingliang Mansion has been controlled by Hong Chengchou's military horses, and the reason why Gao Junshan's team will be welcomed by the people of Pingliang is that he did not harm the interests of the people during his management of Pingliang, and protected the market circulation and prospered the local economy.
Gao Junshan learned from the mouths of the people that Pingliang Mansion was no longer his people, so he crossed the Wating Pass and headed to the Kelan Mountain on the right. walked to a place called Mi Gang and met Sun Kewang.
Sun Kewang was sent by Cai Zhishan to contact Gao Junshan, and Gao Junshan summoned Sun Kewang alone, and he wanted to understand the current situation in detail so that he could plan for the next move.
From Sun Kewang, Gao Junshan learned of the fact that the righteous army was defeated in the Carriage Gorge, and the good situation in Shaanxi was prosperous, and the battle of the Carriage Gorge was overturned.
"More than 100,000 rebel brothers are gone?" Gao Junshan didn't believe it very much.
"Yes, this is exact intelligence." Sun Kewang had a look of frustration in his words, "I heard that the 40,000 soldiers and horses of the Eight Kings were all absorbed by Chen Qiyu. ”
"So, what about Li Zicheng? Is there any news of him? Gao Junshan asked eagerly.
Sun Kewang said: "It's not clear now, I have sent people out to inquire about the king and the general. ”
"Where's Pingliang? How did we lose our Pingliang? ”
