Chapter 864: Catch Yao Qisheng 1
On the city wall, Yao Qisheng and Yu Chenglong glanced at each other, Yao Qisheng sighed, "I knew that this was the case, I should have listened to the words of the Northern Brother Tai that day, and evacuated here as soon as possible, now we are surrounded on all sides, the enemy is under the city, how to outrun the enemy's fast horse, the enemy's quick robbery, it seems that today or tomorrow is the last moment for you and me to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty and the emperor." ”
Yu Chenglong sighed, "This Huaxia army looks as weak as tofu if it doesn't make a move, we have been attacking here from Yanmen County, more than 400 miles, they have suffered such a big damage, so we jumped into their pockets, and now we can't run if we want to, they are surrounded by their cavalry and militia, and outside the city is their main army, it seems that we can only fight to the death." ”
"Or, my lord, the soldiers and horses of the Merlin Fish Corps of the enemy in the east have not yet come up, and I will lead the Mongolian cavalry to cover the adults to break through first, and the Jiangshan Sheji still needs to worry about the adults." Yu Jackie Chan said to Yao Qisheng.
Yao Qisheng looked up and sighed sadly, "The situation is like this, I'm afraid the Qing Dynasty will follow in the footsteps of the Ming Dynasty." You can escape from Coastal Province today, but will the emperor escape from Yanjing tomorrow? Where am I going to go when the time comes? Where are the people going? ”
Yu Chenglong saw that there was no way to persuade Yao Qisheng, so he could only follow Yao Qisheng, and he said to Yao Qisheng: "Then the lower officials will go down and count the money and grain, organize some young people in the city to prepare some food and water for the army, and organize some people to transport the wounded." ”
Yao Qisheng said to Jackie Chan: "Well, Brother Beiming has a heart, this time we can only be on the same continent, have you sent soldiers and horses to the emperor for help?" ”
Yu Chenglong sighed, "At this moment, it is a little too late to send soldiers and horses for help, Xia Guan has already sent a few teams to Lord Suo Etu, I believe that he received the news that our army was surrounded, he will not sit idly by, where is he at least more than 100,000 troops, this time for more than half a month has not opened the channel, and our army will make peace, it seems that there are a lot of Huaxia troops over there, but I don't know if he will immediately wave the army to help when he receives the news of you and my request for help, if he comes to help sincerely, there are still a few roads that the Huaxia Army has not blocked." ”
Yu Chenglong saw that Yao Qisheng did not respond to his words, so he said: "Xia Guan has asked Wu Sangui to end the confrontation with the Huaxia Army in Yulin County as soon as possible and rush here as soon as possible to solve the dilemma of being besieged." ”
Yao Qisheng waved his hand, "Go, the Huaxia Army is ready, I can't wait any longer, let those soldiers of the Dajin Kingdom come to the city wall immediately to resist the attack of the Huaxia Army." ”
Yu Jackie Chan bowed and retired.
When he returned to the palace, he found his own Fubiao standard, "You immediately send someone to open a passage, prepare the horses, and at the same time prepare some elite soldiers, wait secretly in the woods outside the city, and once you see my signal, immediately send troops to rush through a passage to take the official out of the city." ”
The standard was promoted by his henchmen, and he immediately knelt down on one knee, "Yes, my lord, the last general will swear to defend the lord to the death." ”
Yu Chenglong nodded, "Well, it may take a few days to fight, you first send some of the belongings and horses brought by the old man, and the family out of the city, walk from the east, wait for twenty miles east of the city, don't bring artillery, just bring cavalry and elite infantry, you must hide well, otherwise it will be discovered by the Huaxia army, and among the hundreds of thousands of troops, this point of men and horses may not be enough for people to fight." ”
Sent away his henchmen, Yu Chenglong looked into the distance, and in the distance, Zhang Qiang watched the battle report sent back by Wan Douni in Yuncheng Mansion.
Wan Douni's temporary field brigade of more than 6,000 troops has approached Houma Mansion at this moment, and the soldiers of the Dajin Kingdom who were captured by the Great Qing State changed into the soldiers of the Great Qing Kingdom, holding the original weapons and equipment, all of which were old goods exchanged for them by the Huaxia Army, but this is also very advanced, and the front loading is a flintlock pistol.
He had been holding them back for a week thirty kilometers outside the city of Houma, and there were more and more reinforcements, so that Wan Douni had to transfer all three regiments of the garrison regiment in the rear, and also transferred a squadron of an elite militia brigade of the city government that had been reorganized and replenished.
This is 15,000 soldiers and horses, artillery, most of the soldiers and horses of the garrison brigade, and half of the strength of the militia elite brigade, and the enemy's tenacity can be said to be beyond the expectations of Wan Dou Ni and Zhang Qiang.
Just when Zhang Qiang was surprised, another news came that Duolong actually led 50,000 Japanese soldiers, 10,000 Han army banner soldiers and horses, 5,000 Mongolian cavalry, and 3,000 people, jumped out of the encirclement of the Bagyalu Corps, the Third Guards Division, and the whole four divisions, and disappeared.
This made Zhang Qiang very surprised, Duolong is addicted to escaping, escaped wonderful, think that he escaped in Hubei Prefecture, he escaped in Shandong Prefecture, he escaped in Jeju Island, and now in the face of four divisions of 100,000 soldiers and horses, he took more than 60,000 soldiers and horses to flee from Lanzhou County without a trace, making the soldiers and horses of the four divisions surrounding him empty.
Zhang Qiang also has nothing to say about such a guy, there are indeed a few more cunning generals in the Qing Dynasty, or the Manchu Jurchens, well, now they have changed, they are Manchus.
But he can't do anything now, all he can sit on is to send troops and horses to Wan Douni's side, he sent out the Celestial Shadow guarding Hejin Mansion, and sent him an additional garrison regiment, a soldier of an ordinary militia brigade, as well as the Jingshi Guards Regiment in his hand, and the artillery of a battalion of artillery headquarters to support him.
Turning back and contacting the Merlin Fish Corps, he asked him to send a few field brigades to guard several strategic points in Shaanxi Prefecture, so as not to take advantage of the loopholes.
The camera shifts from Zhang Qiang to the coastal mansion surrounded by heavy troops, Yao Qisheng is standing on the city gate tower, wearing a gorgeous official uniform of a high-ranking Qing army official, and a bright flower bell inlaid with gold and jade.
Holding a binoculars in his hand, which they captured from the Huaxia Army, it was owned by the leader of an elite militia brigade, and during the retreat, the squadron leader was dizzy and was overtaken by a large number of Qing soldiers, and then a squadron of 2,500 troops was annihilated by the Qing soldiers, which was also the first time that the Huaxia Army was annihilated by the Qing army.
Outside the city, the Huaxia army was orderly, orderly, and performed its duties, as if it was not here to fight, but a war machine that started automatically, and this machine was working defenselessly, but Yao Qisheng did not dare to send cavalry out to raid them, because he knew that once the cavalry was dispatched, then this machine would instantly turn into a man-eating tiger, and there would not even be any scum left to devour those cavalry.
However, you can't send soldiers and horses, you can carry out artillery bombardment, anyway, there are a lot of cannons on this city wall, the original cannons have been moved by the Huaxia army, and now there are captured cannons, the largest twelve-pounder, the smallest three-pounder cannon.
He turned to the chief soldier beside him and said, "Order the artillery to bombard the enemy, don't let the enemy be too leisurely." ”
Suddenly, fifty large and small cannons on the city wall here opened fire on the Huaxia army three miles away, and the Huaxia army suddenly became panicked as if it had been stung by a bee, and scattered in all directions looking for a hidden place.
More than 50 solid bullets fell, blowing up dust from one mile to three miles, or even five miles outside the city, and some unlucky soldiers of the Chinese Army were also smashed by shells with their arms broken and their heads cut off, and the end was very miserable.
