Chapter 370. Ghost soldiers
As time passed, the sun sank into the horizon as if it were afraid, but the fierce battle was still going on brutally and bloody.
That is, the Dongjiang Army, not to mention the pro-corps, even if it is the guard corps, they are well fed on weekdays, and they are always hard to train, they have a strong physique, and they can still hold on, even if they are encircled, Mao Jue's banner has not fallen, they will always hold on, if they change to a Liaodong Army or any other army in the Ming Dynasty, they will be short of food and pay all the year round, I am afraid that the morale can hold on, and they will already be tired.
The bayonets on the perimeter were stubbornly propped up, the flintlock muskets inside kept returning fire, and the whole military town slowly and with difficulty regained its position on Mount Garau.
But even so, the situation of the Dongjiang army is still getting worse, on the mountain, the gushing artillery has been extinguished for more than half, and there are also Mongolian cavalry cunning stealing cold shots behind the arrows, the pressure of artillery fire is more and more relieved, Huang Taiji is more and more calm in dispatching troops, the crowded and impermeable military formation slowly dispersed, and a part of the Qing army that regained its activity began to rotate like a windmill, taking turns to attack the main formation of the Dongjiang River.
At this time, Mao Jue's heart was full of remorse, he was still from later generations, this kind of small Dao surprise attack is the Qing army's specialty, the battle of Ningyuan raided Beacon Mountain, the battle of Guangning was surrounded by light soldiers, and the last battle outside the Ming and Qing dynasties, the battle of Songjin, Huang Taiji was also a stalemate with Hong Chengchou The cavalry suddenly went around to the area of Tashan Xingshan, and seized the Ming army's thirteen piles of grain, so that the main force of the Ming army in the encirclement panicked, fled one after another, and killed more than 50,000 horses and 130,000 horses in an ambush of the Qing army. The corpses even floated in a thick layer on the edge of the sea.
Remorse brought self-blame, and even Mao Jue doubted himself for a while, since he traveled to this era, every minute and every second he was trembling, like facing the abyss, like walking on thin ice, but in the end, he was still defeated like water, it was really destiny that could not be changed, and it was really a bamboo basket to draw water?
"The command of the first regiment to the fifth regiment belongs to Lao Tzu, Lao Wen, you are responsible for commanding the reserve forces!"
His face was gloomy like the bottom of a pot, Mao Jue ordered hoarsely, Wen Meng, who was still commanding the troops in a panic, subconsciously agreed, but before he could take over the command, he watched Mao Jue suddenly push away the guards around him and walked forward, and in an instant, his back was soaked with cold sweat.
"General! You command the reserves! The last general is the Dongjiang striker, and the last general has the responsibility to come, I'll come!"
If you want to break through at this time, you must break your wrist with a strong man! It can only be an army desperately attacking the Huang Taiji main formation to create opportunities for the rest, and now in this situation, if you go, you will definitely die!
In fact, the big guys know in their hearts, but everyone is selfish, and it takes great courage to pick up this burden, no one expected that Mao Jue, as the main general, would reach out to cover this mortal task.
Listening to the sound of Wen Meng holding Mao Jue's leg and shouting, Kong Youde, who had killed a bloody body, couldn't listen to it, stretched out his hand and pushed away the servants beside him, and he also squeezed to this side, screaming angrily.
"Wenma's face, you are dead, what kind of Dongjiang pioneer are you, can you beat Lao Tzu? If you want to go up, it's also Lao Tzu, general, Kong Youde, please die? ”
"General! Lao Kong has the courage and no strategy, and it has to be my old Pang Shang!"
"General, I, Liu Chong, am your personal soldiers, how can there be any reason for the Lord to rush to death, I must come!"
"Enough!"
In the midst of the scrambles, Mao Jue roared angrily, instantly making several generals silent.
"The main thing about Tartar is Lao Tzu's head, and no one is as qualified as Ben Jiang! Let you retreat is not in vain, Lao Tzu's hard work, Dongjiang you must support Lao Tzu, my father is your father, Lao Tzu's woman is also your sister-in-law, if Dongjiang is defeated in your hands, Lao Tzu will come back to you when he dies, and let Lao Tzu get out of the way!"
slapped suddenly, directly pushing the generals in front of him away, Mao Jue snorted angrily and dragged the wheel forward.
But this time, it was also the only mutiny in Dongjiang, a few exchanged glances, Wen Meng gestured his head, and the two pro-soldiers suddenly hugged Mao Jue from behind, dragged him back, stunned for a moment, Mao Jue shouted angrily.
"Let go of Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu is the main general of the Dongjiang River, what qualifications do you have? ”
"I'm sorry general, the little one will make amends to you in the next life!"
With a heavy bow, Wen Meng, Liu Chong, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming shouted at their subordinates together, turned their heads and walked in the direction of the enemy formation, leaving Mao Jue behind his back and scolding incessantly.
But at this moment, Liu Da suddenly ran over from the front.
"General, the enemy formation has changed! It's ......"
Pulling out the telescope suddenly, Wen Meng's face couldn't help but twitch violently, and blurted out in surprise.
"...... Shen, Old Man Shen!"
Huang Taiji changed the formation, and the cavalry attack was more fluent, but between the changes, it also left a gap to take advantage of, and in the front army, there was a veteran who had fought for half a lifetime, Shen Shikui!
I remember watching one of the protagonists in "Naruto", Jiraiya once said with a free and easy smile that the elderly have this benefit, and they can die more freely than young people! Now this Shen Shikui is so free and easy, taking advantage of the retreat of the Zhenglan Banner cavalry, and every time the Zhenghongqi cavalry who took over came up, his position suddenly opened up, and thousands of people of the Jeju Army rushed out with torches.
The entire military formation was like a sophisticated machine, this Jeju army crowbar was suddenly inserted, and the gears of the operation were stopped at once, and the red flag cavalry who passed by turned around and chased after it in a daze, but it happened to hit the yellow flag cavalry of the next wave of attack, and the two Qing armies themselves were in a mess.
The battlefield is only three kilometers wide, it is not narrow to say narrow, it is not wide to say wide, and Shen Shikui is really desperate, the whole army even gave up the firecracker, and picked up the sword and shield again, protecting the small number of cavalry loaches in the middle and sliding over, before it reached the stuck joint, a part of the infantry fell off, protecting the assault team with their own lives and continuing to advance, when Mao Jue picked up the binoculars, there were more than 400 people left, and Shen Shikui really killed in front of Huang Taiji.
The white beard fluttered like the legendary veteran Huang Zhong, a machete swung left and right in his hand, and there was no enemy everywhere he passed, and the single knife pointed at Huang Taiji who was riding on the imperial horse, and his loud roar could even be heard on the entire battlefield.
"Tartar Lord! Is it true that there is no one in Dongjiang? Lao Tzu Shen Shikui, I'll meet you for a while!"
Once again, the scene of Mao Jue's desperate assault on the banks of the Daling River came to mind, this is really fucking called Dongjiang! Under the subordinates of the Imperial Horse Camp, Huang Taiji shouted angrily.
"Pass the order, the departments continue to attack, and those who dare to retreat will be killed! Take the Dongjiang River, just today's battle! ”
"Keep fighting me!"
But in the end, this is the era of imperial power, not to mention, it is still the era of imperial power in the Qing Dynasty, where the remnants of slavery are extremely serious, the emperor is shocked, which courtier dares not to come to the rescue? The Qing army in most of the battlefield once again began to slacken, and some troops stagnated in their current positions, and the commander of the unit abandoned his command and returned with light cavalry.
Just at the moment when Huang Taiji was mad, Fan Wencheng shouted in horror again.
"Your Majesty, Dongjiang! Dongjiang reinforcements have arrived!"
As he spoke, the entire top of Garao Mountain was lit up by firelight, and in the hazy night, he watched countless figures rushing down from the hillside, rushing into the position, and seeing Huang Taiji, he couldn't help but be sluggish, so he waved his hand helplessly.
"Heaven has mercy on this kid, just let him go!"
The official military order was issued, and the Qing army, which had been fighting all day, finally began to withdraw its troops, but the crackling gunfire and whistling bows and arrows kept shooting at each other until the two armies completely distanced themselves.
The white flag of the raid on the mountain was miserable, full of self-blame, and Mao Jue, who had blood-red eyes, even went into battle with a bayonet himself. On the right flank of the mountain formation, at the edge of the cannon, a white flag armor soldier had just pulled out the knife from the chest of the Dongjiang artilleryman, and suddenly his back was cold, and he turned his head in shock, in his pupils, there were a pair of blood-red eyes, and the anger of revenge all over the mountains.
At the foot of the mountain, Shen Shikui's department was also completely cut off from their livelihood, and the overwhelming rain of arrows and locusts shot down, and the soldiers who were not afraid of death fell in rows during the rush. With his last breath, he sent the knife into the heart of a Jianzhou nobleman, and then the arrow rain fell brilliantly, and in an instant, his body was shot as densely as a hedgehog, and the veteran finally fell heavily to the ground.
However, at the last moment, the last bit of strength allowed him to fall in the direction of Garao Mountain, and looking at the sparks gradually emerging on the mountain, the old general's mouth was hung with a smile.
"I'm Dongjiang, I won't die!"
…………
The moon rose higher and higher, until the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the cry of this fight for a whole day finally came to an abrupt end, and the entire Garao Mountain position was in a mess at this time, even if Mao Jue's own Chinese army was like this, it was smashed and tatters by the chaotic soldiers, but even Adeleena, who loved cleanliness the most, didn't have the heart to clean it up anymore, and more than a dozen main generals in the entire Chinese army sat opposite each other, dull and silent.
However, in this dullness, it was broken by an uninvited guest, full of urgency, and a very unexpected person suddenly broke in, panting for a while, and the overseer Dao Qu Shiyun opened the tent curtain, and asked hurriedly without seeing clearly.
"General Xiao Mao has been fine! What are the losses in today's war? ”
"Supervisor Qu?"
Whether it is a civil official or a eunuch, the impression is not good, seeing that this little white face in Jiangnan can still appear on the Dongjiang front at this time, Mao Jue couldn't help but be stunned, but Shen Shikui's death made him happy, just surprised for a moment, Mao Jue asked lazily and weakly.
"Qu Jian Army, the reinforcements just came, have the Shandong soldiers arrived?"
"No reinforcements have arrived, yes, it's the officer'......"
Speaking of this, the little white face from Jiangnan was actually a little embarrassed, but his words made the Dongjiang officers in the tent stare round again.
Today's 10,000 artillery guns are roaring, thanks to the blessing of the industrialization process of the Dongjiang River, Mao Jue was able to escape, but he didn't expect it to be the blessing of the industrialization of the Dongjiang River, seeing that the remnants of the artillery guarding the mountain formation and the garrison troops could not resist, this Qu Shiyun thought of a strange trick, he persuaded Sun Chun, took out the cloth as a bandage and spare, lit a fire on the mountain, and then the cloth was tied with a wood and thrown down like a scarecrow, the sky was too dark, and it was too dark to see the figure of the Chinese people and buildings as if thousands of troops and horses came to support, Huang Taiji is not an immortal, even he is deceived by this ghost soldier.
It's just that this Qu Shiyun is estimated to be a crow's mouth, and when this Mao Jue hasn't woken up from his ghost idea, this thing is full of urgency and continues to ask.
"General Mao, can the army still fight?"
"The scout has reported that there is a cavalry force of twenty or thirty thousand, which is approaching from Beihai Avenue in the direction of Garao Mountain!"
"What?"
It was really shocking, Beihai Avenue is in the direction of Hamgyong Road, and this scale made Mao Jue stand up banging on the table......
