Chapter 997: Escape
The movement on the east bank immediately attracted the attention of the Ming army on the west bank, and after the general hurriedly informed Ma Jinzhong, Ma Jinzhong did not say a word, and even organized men and horses to attack in advance.
The sound of the war drums suddenly sounded in the darkness, and as soon as the drums sounded, the Ming army stationed on the mountain immediately rushed down from the mountain with a torch, and the shouting of killing protruded from all sides.
The Ming army rushed down with a high momentum, the momentum was unstoppable, and the Jin army was unprepared, and the screams of the soldiers were full of screams and exclamations.
"Don't mess around!" Hauge turned around and saw countless Ming troops rushing down from the mountain and crashing into the Jin army in the valley, and the Jin soldiers were immediately in chaos, and he shouted in a hurry: "Reinforcements to the east bank!" Don't panic, let's fight with the southerners! "There are a large number of Han people under the rule of the Jin State, and these Han people are of the same language and species as the Han people under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, which is an extremely unfavorable thing for the Jin State, so Haoge ordered that the Han people under the rule of the Jin State be called the Han people, and the Han people under the rule of the Ming Dynasty are called the Nanren, or the Nanban, so as to achieve the purpose of splitting the Han people and creating antagonism.
Now that the Ming army saw that the east bank was under attack, they knew that there were reinforcements from the Jin army, and they were naturally anxious in their hearts, worried that Haoge would slip away, and the officers and men of various departments launched a fierce attack on the Jin army.
On the hills, inspired by the artillery of the Ming army, arrows and guns rained down, and the Jin soldiers mostly wore light armor, especially in the valleys
The terrain was narrow, there was almost no place to hide, coupled with the dense crowd, there were countless people who were hit by arrows and bullets, and the soldiers supported their wounded companions, instinctively retreated to the edge of the Tuojiang River, and many people had been squeezed into the water.
At this time, Sonny and the others listened to Hauge's exclamation, and they all put away their joy at seeing reinforcements, and turned nervous.
Although the reinforcements arrived on the east bank, but to save them, it was nothing more than to build a pontoon bridge, but this took time, if the reinforcements pontoon bridge was not built, they were driven into the river by the Ming army, and the reinforcements arrived in vain.
In the blink of an eye, the roaring Ming army on the hillside had been killed, and their shields were in front, knocking the Jin army back, compressing the Jin army's activity space, and the pikemen stabbed and assassinated the Jin soldiers.
"Brethren, hold on!"
If this continues, before the pontoon bridge is erected, the golden soldiers on the river beach will be driven into the Tuojiang River and drowned, and Sony and other generals will begin to shout urgently.
He led a team of golden soldiers, and then hedged against the Ming army, first the long soldiers were connected, and the soldiers stabbed each other with spears, and then the distance was close, and it became a variety of weapons to cut each other.
The Jin army was suddenly attacked by the Ming army, and the formation was very chaotic, and without forming an effective resistance, it was forced by the Ming army to the riverside. With the organization of Hauge, Sonny and others, the Jin army began to show organized resistance, and like the Ming army, the shield was in front, the spear was piercing, and the bow and arrow were hanging in the back.
After all, there are more than 20,000 people in the Jin army in the valley, under the shouts of the generals, the Jin soldiers who are unwilling to be driven into the water, hissing and shouting, have rushed to the front of the front, pushing back the Ming army line, and the Ming soldiers are separated by a step distance, and even directly collide together, slashing and killing each other across the shield wall, the flesh and blood on the two army fronts are flying, and from time to time there are clouds of blood mist, and the dense crowd makes everyone unable to dodge, just relying on instinct to kill the enemy with swords and guns.
Although the Jin army was squeezed to the riverside, it also blocked the momentum of the Ming Dynasty rushing down, stabilized the front, and even showed signs of pushing back.
"Good! Withstanded! Haug put on his helmet, raised his sword, and shouted.
But as soon as his words fell, the two valley mouths in the north and south broke out almost simultaneously with earth-shattering shouts of killing.
The Ming army with torches knocked down the low wall blocking the Jin army, and then moved away from the horses and antlers in front of the battle.
Ma Jinzhong held a big knife in his hand, and he was in front of him, and countless Ming troops rushed out behind, and the Jin army instantly became attacked from three sides.
Ma Jinzhong led a team of cavalry, against the Tuojiang River rushed into the side of the Jin army, his war horse galloped, the big knife slashed left and right, the courage was incomparable, there was no enemy, the Jin army on both sides was cut down and fell to the ground one after another, and the Jin army was disrupted in an instant, and the Jin army had just stabilized the front, and began to collapse from the north and south.
The Jin army also had a large number of cavalry, but under the squeeze of the Ming army, they didn't even have a place to stay, let alone get on their horses and charge into battle.
Ma Jinzhong rushed for a while, but he couldn't rush anymore, because more than 20,000 golden soldiers were crowded in a narrow area, densely packed, people were crowded, and the war horses hit the human wall, and they couldn't hit it at all.
This siege of Haoge, He Tengjiao gave him great trust, it can be said that he put the credit in front of him, let him take it, if he let Haoge go, he is sorry for himself, he is sorry for He Tengjiao, and he has no face to see people, especially Li Dingguo.
Ma Jinzhong couldn't rush in, he immediately turned over and dismounted, the people and horses were dense, and the knife could not be used, so he took a Miao knife, a round shield, and directly crashed into the wall of the Jin army, while slashing forward, he shouted loudly: "Capture Haoge alive, reward ten thousand gold, and seal the liehou!" ”
When the Ming soldiers heard this, they immediately boiled, rushed to kill with red eyes, and the attack was instantly doubled violently, and they all seemed to be dying.
On one side is the mountain, on the other side is the river, the front of the Ming army envoy general, with a gun forest to drive the Jin army into the river, the Jin army in the Ming army on three sides of the impact, one by one fell into the river, the soldiers struggled, rescued, drowned in the river, and then was washed away by the river.
Hauge was also squeezed to the river, and if he hadn't been guarded by his own soldiers, he would have been squeezed down the river by the soldiers.
Seeing that the situation was extremely critical, the Jin army front could collapse at any time, and more than 20,000 people were all about to be driven into the river and drowned.
Hauge noticed the situation and immediately had two soldiers who knew a little about water tie ropes, then jumped into the river and dragged the raft to the shore to avoid being swept away by the river.
The officer on the raft went ashore and immediately rushed to a large rock on the shore with a rope, and then he circled the rope around the stone, and finally tied it with a stake and nailed it into the ground to fix it again.
While the officer was immobilizing, another sergeant threw a torch into the river, and when the other side saw it, he immediately tightened the rope, and the rope slowly straightened.
At this time, Hauge asked urgently: "Whose men and horses are on the east coast?" Who will save me? "The ministers are the deployment of the king of Pingxi!" Only then did the officer find Haoge, and hurriedly saluted: "The emperor can rest assured, the pontoon bridge will be built immediately, and we will ensure that the emperor crosses the river safely!" "Good, good..." At this time, Hao Ge didn't remember that he was guarding against Wu Sangui before, and said straightly: "Uncle Chang is really a loyal minister, and I want to crown him as a prince." When the pontoon bridge was erected, the Ming army was further squeezed, and several Jin soldiers were squeezed into the river, staring at the raft in panic, and rushed over to snatch it.
Seeing this, Hauge immediately asked people to shoot him, and the river instantly turned red before the riot was stopped.
At this time, the Jin army on the east bank finally pulled the rope and set up a series of rafts, dozens of rafts were connected end to end, and then fixed with wooden planks, piled in the water, and after a short time, the pontoon bridge was erected.
Originally, the Jin army had no way to live, although the defense line was precarious, but it was still stable, but with the pontoon bridge, everyone knew that there was a way to escape, and no one wanted to resist the Ming army after breaking behind, and they rushed to the pontoon bridge, and the Jin army suddenly collapsed.
