Volume 8 Chapter 52 A Shocking Victory
Zhang Bin really couldn't believe that Jiannu would also surrender, and it was their commander Haoge who ordered the surrender!
If it is said that after they were defeated, Hauge and Yue Tuo died or were caught, and the remaining remnants of the army were defeated and surrendered, it was normal, at this time they still had thirty or forty thousand troops, and the commander Hauge was still there, and they surrendered without a little resistance, which is really a bit unbelievable.
However, this is indeed true, because the sound of gunfire and shouts of killing on the battlefield has subsided, and only faint screams can be heard, proving that the battle ahead is indeed over.
When Zhang Bin came to the front of the battle with a group of guards, Cao Wenzhao had already led people to collect the weapons of Jiannu, these Jiannu, there was really no one to resist, most of them stood there with desperate faces, like walking corpses, and some people were screaming Huanshi, but they didn't want to resist, but they were shot or grazed by shells, and they were lying on the ground screaming.
In the middle of the entire battlefield, within a radius of several miles, densely packed with people, this number is probably more than 40,000, and so many Jiannu have been captured, what a big victory is this!
At this time, even Zhang Bin pinched the reins excitedly, his face was flushed, more than 100,000 ah, annihilating and capturing more than 100,000 Jiannu troops before and after, this is simply an unprecedented victory, and more importantly, Jiannu's troops will be overstretched, defeating Jiannu and recovering Liaodong has become possible.
He knew that even if Jiannu gathered all the foot soldiers and elite cavalry of the Eight Banners, plus the co-followers of the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, there would be a total of more than 300,000 horses, and he would be wiped out more than 100,000 in one fell swoop, which means that now there are only about 200,000 people in Jiannu in total, and now there are more than 200,000 people and horses in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty!
Now, the balance of strength in Liaodong has undergone a fundamental change, and the Ming Dynasty has an advantage, do you want to do your best to fight the Liaodong army and have a decisive battle with Jiannu?
Just as he lowered his head and pondered, there was a sudden cheer from the front, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and others had already brought Yue Tuo's body and escorted Haoge over.
Zhang Bin looked up and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Dingguo, what is this?" ”
He didn't know Yue Tuo and Haoge, but looking at this posture, the corpse carried on a stretcher and the person who was escorted with his hands tied must be Yue Tuo and Haoge.
Sure enough, Li Dingguo arched his hand with a cool face: "My lord, this is Yue Tuo, the master of Jiannu, and Haoge, the commander of Jiannu. ”
Yue Tuo should be one of the best in the third generation of Houjin, but he was killed, Zhang Bin couldn't help but be curious: "Who killed this Yue Tuo?" ”
Li Dingguo still said coolly: "This Yue Tuo was originally fighting Wen Xiu, but the last general saw that Wen Xiu couldn't take it down, so he replaced Wen Xiu and went up to him for a few moves, but I didn't expect this Yue Tuo to be so bad that he couldn't catch a few moves." ”
This means that he killed it himself, and it is indeed the hero of the two famous kings, and killing the pillars of the three generations of Jiannu is like killing a chicken!
Zhang Bin couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, and then waved his hand and said, "Carry it down and deal with it well, and prepare to send it to the capital." ”
Immediately afterwards, he said to Hauge, who was tied and his hands were pressed to the ground: "You are Hauge? ”
When did Hauge suffer this kind of humiliation, maybe he was too frightened, or maybe it was the eldest brother's temper that came up, and he actually roared at Zhang Bin: "I am equivalent to the existence of your crown prince, you dare to humiliate me like this, are you not afraid of my father Khan's revenge?" ”
Oops, my temper is still quite big, and I am still retaliating, I'm afraid of a ball, Huang Taiji has been by me a few times.
Zhang Bin pursed his lips and said indifferently: "If your father Khan dares to come to take revenge on me, let him let the horse come, I am afraid that he will not dare to come." ”
Hauge was also out of his mind, and even sneered at each other: "The toad yawns, what a big breath, who are you, there is a kind of report." ”
Is this, it seems that Du Xing, who was a big official at this time, put on a shelf, and did not register his number in front of others, Zhang Bin simply looked up at Li Dingguo, meaning to let him report his name.
Before Li Dingguo could react, Ai Nengqi beside him jumped off the horse with a bang, swooped to Haoge, raised his hand with a big ear, and then said sharply: "Presumptuous, this is my second assistant to the Ming Cabinet, the secretary of the military department, the prince and the prince Zhang Bin Zhang, you are the grandson of the commander of the Jianzhou Guard, how dare you be so rude!" ”
Hauge was slapped and was about to get angry, but when he heard Zhang Bin's name, he was stunned again.
It turned out that this guy was Zhang Bin, and his father Khan really didn't dare to settle accounts with this guy, he thought about it for a while with a blushing face, and finally endured it, because his father Khan said that Zhang Bin was their nemesis, this guy, he really couldn't afford to mess with it.
Zhang Bin saw that he was no longer angry, so he waved his hand and said, "Hold it down and take good care of it." ”
The next thing is to count the results, this time the Fuguang army can be described as a complete victory, more than 100,000 against more than 100,000 people, more than 20,000 people were annihilated, more than 80,000 people were captured, and the casualties on their side were less than 10,000, and the number of dead was less than 2,000!
This is actually not surprising at all, at the beginning, the Qi family army had a better record than this whether it was against the Japanese or against the Mengyuan cavalry, and in the case of absolute superiority in weapons, the battle was almost a one-sided massacre, which can also be seen from the history of world colonization, when the European powers went to bully the indigenous countries, there were even more than 100 people who overturned tens of thousands of troops.
Such a great victory naturally had to be played by the imperial court, Chongzhen, and after counting the results, Zhang Bin began to plan the performance.
The recital he wrote here is very different from before, he used to write the recital according to the truth, for fear that Chongzhen would not know what he was doing, but now he is secretive and does not let Chongzhen know what he is doing.
For example, when he led the army back to help, he didn't report his plan to Chongzhen in detail, just a few words, what Cao Wenzhao has led 20,000 reinforcements to Jinzhou, he has led 40,000 reinforcements to Fuzhou and so on, as for how to arrive, he didn't say a word, and he didn't reveal anything about what he was going to do after arriving.
The reason why he wrote this is because Chongzhen is too suspicious, and some things can't be known too clearly by Chongzhen, and on the other hand, because he suspects that there is an inner line of Jiannu in the court, and even in the palace, he naturally will not tell Chongzhen his plan to encircle and suppress Jiannu in advance.
Like this time, he didn't say how he surrounded the more than 100,000 Jiannu, and there was only a report on the battle record in the whole song, that is, how many Jiannu were annihilated, how many Jiannu were captured, which big man killed Jiannu and which big man captured Jiannu, and he didn't even mention the battle damage on his side, and he didn't even mention anything about his next plan.
Chongzhen received the fold, he really couldn't believe his eyes, a few days ago he was still worried about whether Jinzhou would fall, but a few days later, Zhang Bin told him that the more than 100,000 Jiannu who besieged Jinzhou were all wiped out, either slaughtered or caught, and even the eldest son of the slave chief Taiji was caught!
Is it possible?
It's not that he doesn't believe it, but he can't believe that he can have such a good thing by eliminating more than 100,000 Jiannu at one time, what kind of joke!
It wasn't until Zhang Bin ordered someone to send the corpse of Yue Tuo, the master of Jiannu, and Haoge, the eldest son of the slave chieftain Taiji, to the capital that he believed it.
At this time, he was so excited that he didn't know what to do, how to celebrate such an earth-shattering victory?
