Chapter 220: Luring the Enemy Deeper
Hauge may not care too much about those green camp traitors, after all, China is so big, as long as you hold the power and have food, the two-legged traitors are still very easy to find. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since this is the case, it is impossible not to care about the hardcore traitors-the Eight Banners of the Han Army, after all, since the Tatars entered the customs, most of the governors in various places came from these Han Army Bannermen.
After thinking about it, he dictated the order to the guerrilla general Feng Youqing and Yang Wei, the general manager of the militia group, and the staff officers around him quickly wrote it down.
Seeing that Feng Youqing suddenly led his troops to arrive, Fan Mingshan was overjoyed, and the two pondered for a while, and decided that Feng Youqing would lead his troops to enter the gap from the Manchurian ZLQ and the Green Battalion soldiers in front of him, and assault the demoralized Green Battalion soldiers and horses.
This green battalion of soldiers and horses reorganized by the Sichuan people obviously had no intention of fighting to the death, and when they saw Feng Youqing and others leading more than 1,000 people to kill them, some of them were terrified, and they didn't wait for the other party to fight in close quarters, and some of the other party began to retreat.
The other party was obviously beaten badly, and one of the green battalion soldiers of more than two hundred people was a little dizzy and desperately retreated despite the intimidation of everyone, looking at these green battalion soldiers who did not work hard, the Han army zlq Dutong Bayan was quite annoyed, and sent a horse to scold
With the appearance of the green battalion soldiers, he originally thought that the other party would obey the order and turn around and fight, but who would have expected that some people would dare to coerce the herald and still desperately run away, Bayan was feeling strange, and a personal soldier next to him shouted loudly: "My lord, this, these soldiers are so strange, why are the whips behind their heads so thick?" ”
Seeing that the shouting was not good, Bayan hurriedly commanded the soldiers to block the attack, but the other party was too close to the Franco machine gun team (the artillery firing distance was too far at this time), and the loyal and righteous army was very fierce, so he sent troops and horses to rescue.
In this way, he could only watch Yang Wei lead more than 200 people to kill the soldiers who were guarding the artillery, and watched the violent explosions on the artillery position.
Standing in the rear, Haoge was quite annoyed, or slightly regretted his division strategy, although Ao Bai had already led the XHQ escort army to reinforce, but observing the situation on the front line, if it were not for the Manmeng Eight Banners Iron Cavalry in the rear, these 30,000 green battalion soldiers and horses would have been defeated by the smaller number of loyal and righteous troops.
Looking at the situation on the battlefield, the loyal and righteous soldiers who fought on the battlefield were less than half of the soldiers of the Green Battalion, but they had the advantage on the battlefield.
If the troops are not divided, Luo Luohun, the king of Yanxi County, and the general Heluo Club are in front of him, and they can rely on the numerical advantage of the green battalion to defeat the opponent, and then calmly choose the target of the attack and go straight to the big tent of the Zhongyi Army.
The traitor Liu Jinzhong, who took refuge in the past, once said that there were 30,000 people in the loyal army, if you add the militia group that was temporarily recruited, the remnants of the Great Western Army that were recruited, there were more soldiers and horses on the battlefield, and now there are less than 20,000 people on the battlefield, and some people are worried that Yang Xuan did not send the main force to fight the green battalion at all.
However, the left and right flanks were behind the supervising formation, Belenikan and Dutong Malashi both claimed to have encountered the main force of the loyal and righteous army, and fought for half a day from morning to afternoon, although the soldiers and horses of the green battalion were twice as large as the loyal and righteous army in person, but they never won the initiative on the battlefield, causing Hauge and others to sit on the horse one by one and scolded these green battalion traitors for being ungrateful, and they only wanted to receive the salary of the Qing Dynasty, but did not dare to fight to the death like the loyal army. (The Manchus had only been in charge of the Central Plains for less than two years, and the Green Battalion was mostly composed of elite troops from the former Ming Dynasty, and it was impossible for the general soldiers to be as willing to serve the Qing army as the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.)
In the face of the Ming army and the righteous army with very poor combat strength in various places, the strength of the green battalion far exceeds that of the other party, and of course it can be decided in one battle. But now in the face of the strong loyal army, the strength is much worse, and they are fighting desperately one by one. )
Scolding and scolding, but now only the Eight Banners of Manmeng can change the situation.
Thinking about Dorgon's sinister look, Hauge felt a pang of fear after finding a trumped-up charge to cut off his title of prince a few years ago, and if he lost this battle, he would definitely be accused of making himself doomed.
(Historically, Haoge was arrested after the expedition to Sichuan, although the reason for Qingshi is unknown, if you carefully analyze it, it is probably the failure of Haoge's expedition to Sichuan, and the Manchu Tartars are just the venerable.) )
What's more, there are 2,000 Manchurian XHQ Bayala camps and 2,000 Manchurian ZLQ Bayala camps around him.
The victory or defeat is in this fight, the Manchurian Eight Banners have many cavalry, even if they do not win the Manchurian Eight Banners, they can retreat with their whole body, Hauge feels that life and death are in this battle, and the plan for today is to find an opportunity to launch a counterattack.
After waiting hard, who expected that Yang Xuan seized the opportunity and suddenly ordered the left-wing Feng Youqing regiment and Yang Weimin regiment to pounce on the Han Army Banner, and now they are frantically killing and scattering the Han Army Banner, a gang of traitors, and are burning the artillery of the Han Army.
But this also exposes his weakness to no avail, and Hauge, who is struggling to find an opportunity in the back, believes that this is undoubtedly a weakness.
Hauge decided to counterattack, in addition to ordering Belenikan and the Mongol Zlq Gushan Ezhen Ma Lashi to lead the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers and horses to press on the whole line to prevent the loyal army from retreating from their positions, Hauge and Ao Bai each led 2,000 Manchurian forward battalions to directly capture the big tent of the loyal and righteous army.
In order to confuse the loyal and righteous army, the brigade of men and horses lined up horizontally, and because of the large size of the war horses, even if there were ten rows in front and back, they were four or five miles wide.
This is a strong attack signal, seeing that the Eight Banners of Manchuria gradually spread out to form an attack formation, the loyal and righteous troops in front of them looked very nervous, and some even retreated backwards, seeing that the other party was so timid, Haoge was even more mocking and laughing, the Southern Barbarians were cowardly, not as heroic as the Manchurians.
After stabilizing the situation on the battlefield, Haoge pulled out his sword, and Ma Laxi, the commander of the Eight Mongolian Banners, led more than 1,000 Mongolian Eight Banners to suddenly rush to the battlefield, and when he was still more than 200 meters away from the crowd, he suddenly turned to the right and killed the right wing.
The loyal and righteous army obviously fell for Hauge's strategy of attacking the east and west, and when they saw the rogues rushing directly to the right flank, they hurriedly dispatched troops and horses to aid the right flank.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Haoge and Ao Bai each led 2,000 Bayala battalions to rush over and kill the big tent of the Chinese army of the Loyal and Righteous Army.
The commander of the Manchurian ZLQ Protector Army, Gong Ayu, led more than 1,000 Baya Lama to rush to the front, bypassing the Wang Zhibang regiment deployed on the left flank, and rushed over.
Since the main force of Feng Youqing's regiment and the main force of Yang Weimin's regiment have already sent a counterattack, after bypassing Wang Zhibang's regiment, there are only hundreds of remnants of soldiers on the position.
But this time, Hauge can be said to have made a desperate effort to attack, and the scattered infantry on the position undoubtedly blocked the mantis blocking the car at all, and Gong Ayao had no heart to take care of these soldiers, and led his headquarters to rush straight to the Loyal and Righteous Army's Central Army-Guard Regiment.
Riding on a tall horse, he saw the cavalry rushing towards him, which was different from other cavalry, and was a rare fine cavalry in the world.
Not only are the horses tall, but the horses are equipped with harnesses all over their bodies, and the riders on their backs wear cotton armor on the outside and iron armor on the inside to protect against bird guns and crossbows.
This is still the armor of ordinary soldiers, and for those generals, some of them wear an iron armor outside, so it can be seen that their defense is not tight.
Now seeing the other party's mighty killing, seeing that some soldiers are already quite nervous, Yang Xuan's heart is also up and down, and he doesn't know if he can resist the impact of the other party.
Far away, when the heavy cavalry of the Green Battalion had just crossed the left flank position and rushed over, the Fran cannon in the rear had already turned the muzzle, and now seeing the opposing cavalry killed, the Fran cannon kept firing.
But the opponent's war horse has harness all over his body, and the rider on horseback has two layers of three-layer armor, unless it kills at close range, it is even more difficult to kill the opponent in too large a area.
The musketeers were now lined up, and the use of flintlock muskets had been introduced last year, and after a year of hard work, most of the guards were now equipped with such weapons.
Unlike the arquebus, since there would be no sparks exposed, the formation was very close, and now the musketeers of each squadron lined up together, and when they saw the opposing riders rushing over, they began to fire in a dense manner about eighty paces.
Mainly through the impulse or kinetic energy between the target and the projectile to kill the opponent, because of the projectile in the opposite direction, so that the relative speed is much greater than the projectile speed, so that although the cavalry is far apart, but the lethality is equivalent to the infantry at a distance of fifty paces.
Although such a long distance did not cause much damage to a general in three layers of armor, it was completely different for an ordinary soldier wearing two layers of armor, and he was often injured by lead pills at such a short distance.
This is true for knights on horseback, and even more so for armoured horses.
However, the horses galloped very quickly, especially in Manchuria, and their main role was to break up the opponent's formation, rather than shooting arrows from a distance, and the enemy was constantly approaching, and even the kind of generals wearing three layers of armor could not be completely effective in defending themselves at about fifty paces.
Even so, the Tartar cavalry ran very quickly, and when they saw that the opponent was about to rush in front of them, many of them took their javelins from their horses and prepared to throw them forward.
Suddenly, I saw that the horsemen in front of me seemed to be tripped by something, and some of the high-speed running horses were actually tripped and fell to the ground, and the knights on horseback were thrown far away.
This is a temporary designed tripstring, Yang Xuan secretly sent someone to install it when he sent the left wing soldiers and horses to attack forward, and now it really plays a role, at least greatly delaying the opponent's attack.
As mentioned earlier, the Tartar cavalry generally rode and shot at a long distance, throwing javelins at close range, and throwing javelins at close range, although the front position temporarily arranged many triphorse ropes to greatly delay the opponent's offensive, but the opposing cavalry was very numerous, and the cavalry that jumped over the triphorse rope and rushed over was quite amazing, and suddenly threw javelins a few steps away.
Dozens of javelins crossed the sky and fell into the formation, because of the momentum of the war horse running, the momentum was very huge, and sometimes it actually pierced through the iron plate of the chest guard and pierced the person.
The momentum of the loyal and righteous soldiers defending in front was slightly frustrated, and after seeing that the situation was not good, Cao Zhang personally led a battalion of soldiers to kill, and everyone threw a thunderbolt with a handle from afar, and then killed it with the aftermath of the explosion, desperately blocking the front.
Hundreds of wheelbarrows, carriages have been connected together with iron cables, used to block the attack of the Manchurian Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, and now seeing the Manchurian Iron Cavalry rushing forward, the various killers rushed over, waving wolf whisks, boring palladium and fighting with each other.
In the face of ordinary enemy cavalry killers, the team was still able to defend the chariot formation, but this time Haoge desperately attacked, thousands of cavalry suddenly launched a fatal blow, after a period of stalemate, especially after the blue flag soldiers arrived, they released arrows in the back to support, in this case the chariot array was constantly torn apart, and the Manchurian Eight Banners cavalry behind swarmed.
To everyone's slight disappointment is that the musketeers of the loyal army have pressed more spurs, and they can be used like spears on the battlefield, and after seeing the Manchurian Eight Banners constantly rushing over, everyone did not panic at all, under the leadership of the squadron leader and squad leader, everyone shouted slogans, raised their spears and rushed over, desperately blocking the gap.
The battle continued, and Hauge felt that his blood was swelling, it seemed that Yang Xuan had made a fatal mistake, and now his troops were pinned down by Manchurian soldiers and horses, and they could not send troops and horses back to help.
Hauge waved the broadsword in his hand and shouted loudly, hundreds of years ago, the Mongolian Jin army fought at Yehuling, Genghis Khan used the Jin army to fight back against the Chinese army's big tent, causing its hundreds of thousands of troops to collapse, so as to win the victory on the battlefield.
Although the loyal army had the advantage in today's battle, it has now made the same mistake, and now it can only win victory on the battlefield by using the advantage of rapid cavalry maneuvering to attack the opponent's center and disrupt the opponent's command system before the opponent reacts.
Under his encouragement, the morale of the Manchurian ZLQ soldiers was greatly boosted, and everyone kept rushing over, and in the end, the forward battalion of the Gong A'a Loan Department was only a hundred steps away from Yang Xuan.
