Chapter 83 Chasing Wang Yan, Duoduo was frustrated
Rolling Yangtze River water, panic south to cross people.
The king went north to hunt, and the country was ruined and the family did not exist.
This shame is more angry than Jingkang, and the people are more angry and tearful.
Extremely evil northern captive soldiers, slaughtering people in our tribe.
If you want to cross to the south, it is difficult to give up your hometown.
crossed the river for more than one million, and did not want to fall into the dust.
You know my heart, and I am indignant.
After 10,000 miles, when will I come back?
Emperor Hongguang, the empress, and the concubines, together with the Nanjing clan, a total of hundreds of people, were pressed to Beijing by Duoduo's troops, and the Ming Dynasty repeated the deep sorrow of the Song people, making the subjects feel extremely humiliated.
The king hunted in the north, and the remnants crossed to the south.
Wang Yan looked at the Yangtze River flowing eastward, and couldn't help but feel infinitely sad in his heart, "A year ago, after the Jiashen Change, there were six Tang officials in Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty, with more than 500,000 elite soldiers, and the situation was stronger than that of the Song and Jin Dynasties, but only a year later, the Forbidden City changed hands, I don't know if there is still a chance to recover the rivers and mountains?" ”
Wang Yan was depressed in his heart, crossed the Yangtze River with everyone, and was about to go south into Zhejiang, but suddenly there was a report from Malay, saying: "Duoduo has led 100,000 soldiers to Changzhou, and in less than a day, he will be able to chase and kill." ”
When Wang Yan heard this, his face immediately sank, and the things he was worried about finally appeared.
More than 300,000 soldiers and civilians went south, thousands of large and small vehicles, carrying countless backpacks, and the ranks stretched out, unable to defend at all.
At this time, Wang Yan could only quickly convene the generals to discuss, and after explaining the enemy situation, everyone couldn't help but change their faces greatly, but they quickly calmed down, and at the moment when Wang Yan took the people out of the city, they were more or less prepared to be caught up by the Qing soldiers.
Wang Yan said to everyone: "Today, Duoduo leads 100,000 troops, along the Yangtze River by land and water, and will be able to catch up in a few days. ”
"The city of Hangzhou is strong, and there are more than 10,000 soldiers, enough to resist, but today with nearly 300,000 people, the day is only more than 20 miles, I am afraid that four or five, can not catch up with Hangzhou, if the northern capture of the army arrives, the consequences will be unimaginable." Wang Wei opened his mouth and said: "The last general thinks that it is the best policy for the general to go first with all the adults. ”
"The people return to me, I will not abandon it when I am in Yangzhou, and now I will walk a hundred miles to cross the Yangtze River, but I will abandon it!" Wang Yan shook his head and said.
"In this case, the general leads the people first, and the last general is willing to lead the troops to break the back!" Wang Wei saw that Wang Yan had already made up his mind to advance and retreat with the people, so he had to hold his fists.
"The last general is also willing to break off!" Lee Tae-jeong, Liu Shun and others.
At this time, Wang Yan had no other way, and agreed: "Taizhen followed me to guard Yang for two months, and was good at the way of defense, and could lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, Wang Wei led 3,000 soldiers, and the Lord Zuo and others went first by boat, and after entering Hangzhou, I asked for support, and I personally led the Chinese army to protect the people into Zhejiang." ”
At that moment, Li Taizhen selected 5,000 elite soldiers, and Wang Yan ordered Hu Weizong to assist him and lead his troops westward, and after Zuo Maodi, Chen Zilong and others entered Hangzhou by sea, Wang Yan went all the way south with the people, more than 20 miles a day, and then stopped to rest, and the speed was extremely slow.
However, he said that after Li Taizhen led the troops to leave the main force, he had no clue for a while, he was a northerner, and he was not familiar with the landform of the south of the Yangtze River, so he did not know where to block the army of Duoduo, so as to buy time for the main force to go south.
At this time, Hu Weizong, who had been mixed in Caoyun for a long time and knew a lot about the land south of the Yangtze River, said: "Duoduo came to chase, the cavalry was fast, and the infantry division and the warship were slow, the general could ambush the army on the bank of the Wusong River, and when his cavalry arrived, he could attack it halfway." ”
When Li Taizhen heard this, he felt that it was very reasonable, and followed Nahu Weizong's words and led his troops to the mouth of the Wusong River to set up an ambush.
In the first battle of Yangzhou, Duoduo hated Wang Yan to the core, and wanted to kill him quickly, so when he learned that Wang Yan defeated the 80,000 Qing army around Yang, he evacuated Yangzhou, and Duoduo immediately raised troops to chase after him.
100,000 Qing soldiers, 60,000 infantry troops, 20,000 sailors, and 20,000 cavalry, went east of the river in an instant, and after leaving Nanjing, they went straight to the mouth of the Yangtze River.
Duoduo's original intention was to prevent Wang Yan from crossing the river, but when his army marched to Changzhou, he told him in detail that the Ming army had begun to cross the river.
When Duoduo heard this, he couldn't help but feel anxious, afraid of letting go of Wang Yan, a henchman, so he led the cavalry to chase after him without waiting for the infantry army and the sailor.
The Qing army galloped wildly, but was blocked by the Wusong River, Duoduo was anxious to catch up, and without waiting for the sailors and infantry troops, he relied on the hundreds of fishing boats collected to cross the river.
Nearly an hour later, Duoduo crossed the river, but saw that only 5,000 cavalry came, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and was about to ask people to hurry up the crossing, but suddenly there was a cannon sound, and a Ming army was actually killed on the shore, and the killing sound shook the sky.
The Qing army galloped for a day, people were sleepy and horses were lacking, the Qing army who crossed the river, dismounted and sat on the ground to rest, where did they think that they would be ambushed by the Ming army, they didn't have time to get up, Li Taizhen led hundreds of horsemen to kill in the Qing army, and suddenly ambushed the corpse.
The Ming army waited for work, took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Qing army, and suddenly killed, with 5,000 men and horses, and immediately formed a massacre against the 5,000 men and horses of the Qing army.
Seeing this, Duoduo was both angry and frightened in his heart, and regretted it in his heart, but at this time, the Qing army was divided into two parts by the Wusong River, and the 5,000 men and horses on the east bank were killed without the power to resist, and they were instantly defeated, and they fled one after another, while the more than 15,000 Qing troops on the west bank were completely unable to exert their strength, so they could only sit and watch the defeat of the Qing troops on the east bank.
Duoduo originally came to chase and kill Wang Yan, but he didn't want to be chased and killed by the Ming army in turn, so he hurriedly fled back to the west bank by fishing boat.
After the first battle, Duoduo lightly ordered more than 5,000 people to cross the river, only fled back to 1,000, and the rest were all folded in the hands of the Ming army.
In this battle, Li Taizhen suddenly attacked, and he only injured dozens of people, but he made 20,000 Qing soldiers, and lost two percent, which can be described as a complete victory, and the reason for such a result is mainly because the soldiers who crossed the river were mostly Mongolian cavalry of the outer domain, and they did not know how to water, and only a thousand people were really hacked to death, and the rest were mostly driven into the water and drowned.
Duoduo is so arrogant, such a result is really a slap in the face, which makes him furious, "Since the southern expedition, this king has not met an opponent, but he has been repeatedly humiliated by Wang Yanpifu under the city of Yangzhou, and now he is defeated by his generals, it is simply unreasonable!" ”
A defeat made Duoduo ashamed and angry, and regarded Wang Yan's soldiers even more as a problem for the Qing Dynasty's henchmen, he was eager to get rid of them, but he could only look at Jiang and sigh.
Duoduo could not cross the Wusong River, and Li Taizhen could not cross the river to attack it, but after the victory, he camped by the river, confronted Duoduo across the river, and prevented him from crossing the river to pursue Wang Yan's main force.
In this way, both sides of the Wusong River occupy the balance of the city, but this equilibrium, destined not to last long, in Li Taizhen blocked Duoduo two days later, the Qing army sailors and infantry troops to Wusongkou, and Li Taizhen has built a big village in two days, and built a simple fort, set up nearly ten large and small long machines, blockaded the river.
