"Oh!"

Ma Yao humbly accepted Bai Yushan's explanation, and combined the corresponding evidence he had learned before in his mind, and did not forget to praise Bai Yushan pertinently.

"Shall we wait until after dark?"

Ma Yao is not a stupid person, he was more or less guided by the emotions of the first time he was on the battlefield, and he was less steady, but now after calming down, he has the intention of drawing inferences.

"Not bad!"

Bai Yushan glanced at Ma Yao with admiration, which could be regarded as an affirmation of Ma Yao's thinking.

"Night raid warfare is the specialty of my Hongtang army, although these brothers in our hands don't know much about night raids because of time, but fortunately, the middle-level non-commissioned officers who are the backbone are all Hongtang old men, and with their leadership, the strength of our team will not be too bad."

"Okay, then I'll see how destructive our tricks are tonight!!"

With Bai Yushan's detailed explanation, Ma Yao not only learned a lot, but also began to look forward to the possible battles in the future.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the time spent on the whole day earlier, with Bai Yushan stopping the team, a meal plus three or four hours of rest, basically recovered, the only regret is that for the next action, everyone's food is snow water with fried noodles, there is no shelter to shelter from the cold wind, everyone also suffered a little.

After the sky was completely dark, with Bai Yushan's order, she began to slowly squirm again.

The five-mile journey will naturally not take long on weekdays, but soon in this snowy day, when Baiyushan and they approach the Gongchangling Walled City, I am afraid that it will be ten minutes in the middle of the night, which is just the time when the other party is the most relaxed.

The black dragon walked in the snowy night, even if it didn't light the torch, but it could barely see, and for the soldiers in the Hongtang army, who had almost no night blindness, it had some advantages over the night raids in the past.

In the process of groping, the team had already approached the vicinity of Gongchangling, and there was only one slope left from the Gongchangling Walled City at the top of the mountain.

"Our goal this time is to completely defeat the Jurchen army in this walled city, so that it will not have a chance to turn over, so the brothers have given me twelve points of fighting spirit, which is a great gift to the master of the door after we join the Hongmen, do you have confidence!!"

In the interval of a short rest, the non-commissioned officers, who are the backbone of the middle and lower levels, began to boost the morale of the soldiers around them in a low voice.

"Yes!!"

The same low answer, but with boundless confidence.

"Let's get ready, let's do a big job!!"

The non-commissioned officers who had turned into the leaders of the indigenous leaders retracted their gaze in satisfaction, waiting for the sound of the order.

"Rush!!"

A long wolf howl sounded faintly in his ears, and then the Hongtang soldiers who were lurking on the cold snow jumped up from the ground one after another, ran silently on the snow, and climbed up.

"Enemy attack!!"

The city wall was brightly lit, but there was an illusion that it was dark under the lights, so that when the city guards found the Hongtang soldiers, most of the Hongtang soldiers had already rushed under the city wall.

The mournful roar resounded throughout the entire Gongchangling Walled City, and with the roar of the chaotic integration troops, the sound of fighting on the city wall came first.

"What's the situation??"

Dolgon, who ran out of the rest room in his armor, asked with a questioning look on his face after meeting up with the two princes, Haug and Zilharang.

According to their estimation of Hongtang's army, the other party should still be licking his wounds on the position at this time, how could he kill the Gongchangling Walled City now.

"I don't know, but seeing the ferocious attack in the city, I'm afraid that the Han army will kill it again. Where did the strength of this Han army come from, and could they not fight it with iron? ”

The two princes, Zilharang and Hauge, also had a look of incredulity on their faces, and said uneasily.

"This Gongchangling Castle has not been taken care of since it was taken by us, and many of the fortifications have been destroyed in our previous war. The most important thing is that near the collapsed city wall, it was only repaired casually, and I am afraid that it will not be of much use. ”

Dolgon's face was grim, and he spoke of his worries with concern.

As soon as Dolgon's words fell, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the northern city, like a thunderclap in the dark night.

"Not good!!"

Dolgon and the others changed color, and the previous worries suddenly became a reality with this loud noise, although the sea did not receive a report from the guards, but the sharp-thinking Dolgon seemed to know the meaning behind this loud noise.

Indeed, this long journey, because of the heavy snow sealing the mountain, Bai Yushan's troops did not carry too many heavy siege equipment with the army, but they had calculated the Qing Dynasty defense castles such as the Gongchangling Walled City, and they did not have time to repair them, so Bai Yushan and they carried more blasting gunpowder used to open the mountain and split stones.

There are professional engineers to do a good job of calculation, looking for the best blasting point, using explosives bags made of hundreds of catties of gunpowder in the original collapse of the northern city, just a single blast, so that the weak city defense temporarily repaired by the Qing Dynasty turned into a pile of ruins in front of everyone.

The huge gap that was blasted out became the best choice for the Hongtang soldiers to capture the Gongchangling Walled City, and with the continuous flow of Hongtang soldiers along this gap into the castle, the Hongtang soldiers in other directions should be combined with the outside, so that the Qing soldiers who had not yet had time to complete the whole team fell into a dilemma.

The elite Jurchen Eight Banners soldiers of the Qing Dynasty army, and the Mongol Eight Banners soldiers, under the consumption of these days, together with the wounded who could still fight, were only less than 40,000 members, plus the Han soldiers and Korean soldiers, the total strength was less than 90,000.

Behind the seemingly strong numbers, they can't hide the disgust and low morale of the soldiers of their Qing army. Again and again he went out to attack the Honghongtang army, and he was deflated again and again, and finally had a glimmer of life, but he learned that the tribe behind him was devastated again, and the news that the Jurchens began to split, in other words, any warrior would inevitably have other ideas.

As for the Han army and the Korean soldiers, they were only suitable for fighting a good fight, and most of the time they either existed as auxiliary soldiers or were just cannon fodder, and the Qing soldiers had always scoffed at their combat effectiveness.

The war soon developed in favor of Hongtang's army, and countless Han and Korean soldiers began to throw away their armor and surrender on the ground; And more Jurchen soldiers were separated from the middle by the Hongtang army and fought separately.
