Wang Shixiu looked into the distance, the Jinqing coalition army was scattered across the wilderness, and the smoke of the Dao cooking rose and was unscrupulously exposed in front of the Ming army.

"Dudu, Hu Lu is too rampant, he doesn't take us seriously!" Qin Shangxing, who had a fiery temper, immediately hugged his fists and asked for his life again. "Dudu, the army is attacking, without the arrival of His Highness, we can kill and defeat the enemy army by ramming through the horse army!"

The Jin army coalition did not have the slightest sense of fleeing for their lives, and many generals of the Ming army felt that they were despised by the Qing army, and their hearts were on fire for a while.

More than 100,000 people, unsuspectingly displayed in front of the Ming army, the cavalry rushed over, and they would inevitably be able to kill the enemy army by mistake.

This is a very huge temptation, the generals of the Ming army are angry at the same time, but also very excited, only feel that the opportunity in front of them is also a godsend.

In this way, taking advantage of the Qing army's lack of reaction, rushing to kill the past, and defeating 180,000 enemy troops in a battle, it is simply Huo Huqi who is alive, and he must be famous in history, and everyone has asked for battle, but Wang Shixiu is a very calm person.

The horse army is a sharp knife of the Ming army, which should be as urgent as the wind and invade like fire, that is, when marching, it comes and goes like the wind, and when attacking, it is as fierce as fire.

To give the Ma army such a soul, it is necessary to dare to fight and kill the fierce future as a commander, Zhao Shenkuan and Qin Shangxing are all such people, they are all Ming generals who dare to rush and kill, and dare to rush head-on with the Qing army.

Wang Shixiu is different, he was born in Xiucai, and he has followed Wang Yan for many years, so in terms of using soldiers, he is closer to Wang Yan and is more cautious.

His character is actually more suitable to lead the infantry army, rather than the horse army that pays attention to timing and seizes the opportunity.

Of course, Wang Yan asked him to lead the rampaging horse army, which was naturally also considered, and it just so happened that Wang Yan took a fancy to his caution.

The Ma army should be as anxious as the wind, invade like fire, and find that the fighters did not hesitate to attack immediately, how to wave how to come, but the Ming Dynasty horse army was scarce, but some could not afford it.

If the Ming Dynasty has 100,000 elite cavalry, then Wang Yan will naturally be bolder, even if the cavalry wants to go deep behind the enemy, he will not stop the attack on Beijing, but after all, there are only 30,000, Wang Yan would rather give up a lot of fighters, but also try to ensure the safety of the horse army, can not suffer a big defeat.

Wang Shixiu ignored the words of the people around him, but picked up the clairvoyant mirror to observe the Qing army in front of him, as well as the surrounding terrain.

After he swept it with the clairvoyant, he put down the clairspace after a while, and said with a slight smile: "You look carefully, the enemy army seems to be making food, but the number of enemy troops next to each pile of cooking smoke is more than 100 people, and there should be officers in command, they stand up to be a small formation, and hundreds of small formations are combined together, which is a large formation." If we rushed over, we might crash into the tip of the Qing army's guns. ”

As he spoke, Wang Shixiu used his horsewhip again and pointed to the woods on the left and right, "Look at the woods on both sides, it's very quiet, and there is not even a single bird." This town dares to conclude that there must be enemy troops on both sides! ”

When Wang Shixiu spoke, all the generals had already looked at him one after another, and when they saw it, they immediately knew that something was indeed wrong.

With Dorgon's old way, it is impossible to make such a mistake, it turns out that he wants to deliberately show weakness, lure the Ming army to attack, and then outflank them left and right, and kill them by surprise.

This made the generals of the Ming army secretly hate, if it wasn't for the governor's caution, they would have fallen for the poisonous plan of the puppet.

Qin Shangxing couldn't help but scold secretly, "Old Yin Goods, if it weren't for the Governor to take a closer look, we would have been impulsive, maybe we would have fallen into his way!" ”

"Seeing the enemy soldiers scattered all over the wilderness, there is a huge temptation to defeat 180,000 enemy troops in one fell swoop, most people will have a hot brain, afraid of giving the enemy time to react, miss the opportunity, and choose to attack immediately!" Wang Shixiu sighed, "Dolgon, this person, is really good at using people's surnames. ”

"The old thief is insidious!" Zhao Shenkuan scolded, then turned his head and asked, "Dudu, what should we do now?" Just look at it, do they make rice? ”

Wang Shixiu pondered for a while, "Send the cavalry of the two divisions out and burn the woods on both sides!" ”

"Order!" Qin Shangxing was overjoyed when he heard this, and rushed to receive the order, "The last general will arrange it!" ”

The establishment of the Ming army was divided into seven levels: town, battalion, department, division, bureau, flag, and team.

Before the reform of the military system, the men and horses of the first battalion of the Ming army were mainly according to the establishment of the guard, and the full strength was about 5,000 people, but in the actual combat and peacetime garrison, the Ming army found that the establishment of 5,000 people was a bit large, so now the personnel of the first battalion are generally controlled at about 3,000 people.

The main reason for this change is that the firearms of the Ming army have become more and more advanced, the Ming army has been fully trained, and the overall combat strength has become stronger.

The people and horses of a town are still about 30,000 people, but they have changed from the original six battalions to ten battalions.

Below the Ming military camp, there are five levels of department, division, bureau, flag, and team, with three teams for each flag and 12 soldiers for each team. There is a total of one flag for each flag, with a total of 37 people; Each bureau has one hundred households, three flags, and one hundred and twelve officers and soldiers; Each division has one deputy to 1,000 households, three bureaus, and 337 officers and soldiers; Each department has a total of 1,000 officers, three divisions, and 1,012 officers and soldiers; Each battalion has one commander, two commanders, and one commander, totaling about 3,000 officers and men.

Except for the town and the battalion, the other levels are basically based on the principle of the three-three system, close to the original Ming Army Shenji Battalion and Qi Jiguang Car Battalion.

Of course, this is not completely fixed, some battalions are weaker, maybe less than 3,000, and some battalions may be equipped with an additional division of artillery or cavalry, which is not very uniform.

Wang Shixiu nodded, and Qin Shangxing immediately pulled the reins of his horse and turned to leave.

In a short time, two divisions, each with more than three hundred riders, galloped to the left and right, and ran to the woods on both sides.

In the camp of the Qing army, Dolgon and the generals were observing the Ming army, and the county king Luo Koze next to him put down the clairvoyant mirror and said hurriedly: "Regent, the Ming army stopped, and did not rush straight over, only sent two cavalry to the woods on both sides!" ”

Dolgon's face sank, and he hurriedly picked up the clairing mirror to take a look, and sure enough, he saw the Ming army brigade, stopped in the distance, and the two small groups of cavalry roared away in the left and right directions.

He didn't expect that he deliberately sold such a big flaw and put the opportunity to defeat the 180,000 army in front of the Ming army, and how many such excellent opportunities could be on the battlefield, the generals of the Ming army did not rush over to seize the opportunity and vigorously grasp him, but calmed down and saw his intentions, which made Dolgon's face suddenly sink like water, and his heart was cold.

Dolgon's face was gloomy, he had to repel this cavalry before he could lead the army back.

Since he had been discovered by the Ming army and did not fall into his trap, he could only take the initiative to attack.

Dorgon was silent for a while, and then said in a hateful voice, "You immediately give an order, let Lou Qin and Wakda, stop hiding, and give this king the initiative to attack and defeat them head-on!" You're ready to strike too! ”

The cavalry of the two divisions of the Ming army galloped to the woods on both sides, but at this time, the Qing army suddenly sounded, and a terrible horn sounded, and I saw that the Qing army that originally made food was all fighting hard.

At the same time as the horn sounded, countless sharp arrows suddenly shot from the woods, and several cavalrymen in front were unprepared and were immediately shot off their horses.

The Ming army brigade, the generals saw that when the horn spread all over the wilderness, there were suddenly countless Qing cavalry in the woods, rushing out of it, and their faces suddenly sank, and the **** really carried out an ambush.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Chu had explained in advance to guard against Dolgon, a yin man, and the governor was also cautious, so he didn't fall for the plan.

Seeing that the Ming army who had just approached the woods was shot and killed, they immediately beat their horses and ran back, and tens of thousands of Qing horsemen in the woods chased them out, Zhao Shenkuan immediately said urgently, "Dudu, what should I do?" ”

Wang Shixiu took out a handcuff, "Rush up, release the handcuff, and kill their majesty!" ”

The Qing army took the cavalry of the Ming army of two divisions, and rushed directly towards the 30,000 rampaging horse army, and the rampaging horse army stood still, it definitely didn't work, and the horse's head was turned and retreated immediately, which would inevitably increase the prestige of the Qing army, and it would not be able to complete the task of containing the Qing army, so it was still necessary to show something.

As soon as Wang Shixiu clamped the horse's belly, the 30,000 horse army was divided into two teams and greeted them head-on, and the fleeing Ming cavalry saw this, immediately changed direction and left the route of the collision between the two armies.

Lou Qin and Wakda saw the rushing horse army, so they abandoned the Ming army of the two divisions one after another, and still let them go away, but aimed the spearhead at the Ming cavalry who met them.

The distance between the two armies was extremely close, and in a blink of an eye it reached the distance of cavalry shooting, and the Qing army shot a rain of arrows when it was neutral, and the Ming army also returned fire with three-eyed guns, and the cavalry on both sides fell and dismounted.

After the cavalry, the Qing army immediately held the sword and spear, ready to ram, but the Ming cavalry suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, raised the fire gun, and dispersed to both sides, not hedged against the Qing army.

The cavalry of the Qing army passed through the middle of the cavalry of the Ming army, Lou Qin and others were busy holding the reins of the horses, and the army reorganized the charging formation.

The same situation was staged again, after the Ming army galloped and released the gun, it did not hedge with the Qing army, but spread out to both sides again, avoiding the impact of the Qing army's arrows, so that the Qing cavalry only felt that a punch was empty again, a bit of a skill, and did not play the feeling.

This time, the scattered Ming army did not converge in a roundabout way, but when the Qing cavalry passed through them, they continued to move forward, slowly converging into a force, and retreating directly to the south.

This made Lou Qin and Wakda furious, and after they rushed over, they made a detour to a big bay, angrily urging the men and horses, and chased after the Ming cavalry that had been transported.

When Dolgon saw this scene, he hated it in his heart, because he saw that the strength of the Ming army's horse army was no worse than that of the Qing army, and even surpassed the Qing army in some aspects, and the reason for this was naturally indispensable, Tan Tai and other traitors trained the Ming army.

In the confrontation, the Qing cavalry did not take advantage, which annoyed Dolgon, but fortunately, the Ming cavalry was finally driven away.

He immediately ordered: "Quick, after eating, immediately retreat north!" ”

However, at this moment, a group of Qing cavalry came from the north, bringing Dolgon a desperate news, and he returned to Luoyang first, and Dorni reported that the Tiger Pass had been lost and fell into the hands of the Ming army.

This made Dolgon's face change again, and his whole body trembled involuntarily.
