Section 4 Field Operations (2)

"Prince Zheng, according to the king's opinion, you should start gathering the warriors with the blue flag, look at it like this, Shang Kexi, this minion can't hold it anymore, this waste!"

Dai Shan said with a frown, his eyes full of disdain and disgust as he looked at the two white flags of the Han army in the distance.

Zilharang paused when he heard this, and hesitated to look at the battlefield ahead. The strong fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Ming army under Li Dingguo made Zilharang's heart full of worry, coupled with the fact that the attack of the Ming army was unfavorable at this time, and it was about to retreat, so he didn't want the Manchurian army with blue flag warriors led by him to go up at this time, and rushing up now would mean a lot of casualties.

However, in the face of Dai Shan, the commander of the vanguard army appointed by Huang Taiji, Jilharang could not find a reason to refuse to fight.

After a short period of hesitation, Zilharang thought of a set of rhetoric, and said with a smile: "Prince Li, this king thinks that there is no need to be too anxious for now, and wait for Shang Kexi, the minion, to be completely defeated." If I rush forward now, my blue flag warriors will definitely be impulsive by those defeated Han army banner minions, which will outweigh the losses. ”

Ji'er Harang's meaning was naturally very clear, and after smiling faintly, he looked at the battlefield in the distance, and saw that Shang Kexi was still trying his best to command the two white flag armies of the Han army, which were in decline, so he said expressionlessly: "Okay, let's take a look." ”

At the same time, Shang Kexi roared loudly in the Chinese army with a hideous face, commanding all troops and horses to hold their positions and resist the counterattack of tens of thousands of Ming troops.

At this time, Shang Kexi's heart was full of irritability, he originally led the army to attack, but he didn't expect that now he would become the defensive side, and the tens of thousands of troops under his command were still retreating. This is unacceptable to Shang Kexi, who is bent on making meritorious contributions in front of Dai Shan and Jil Harang!

"The whole army counterattacks! Those who take half a step back will not be forgiven! ”

Shang Kexi roared, after working hard for more than half an hour, he finally stopped the retreat of the army, and the entire Han army and the two white flag armies began to hold each other again with Li Dingguo's troops, and nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses on both sides were fighting bloodily less than two miles away from the Qing army's main formation.

However, although the two white flag formations of the Han army were stabilized again, they also suffered heavy casualties, and the 10,000 heavily armored infantry soldiers who broke into the Ming army's large array before had been completely damaged, and the entire large array was also subjected to the fierce attack of the Ming army's soldiers, and the army suffered huge casualties. At this time, there were only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses left in the two white flag armies of the entire Han army, almost more than half of which were lost.

This battle came to this point, and the two white flag armies of the Han army, under the command of Shang Kexi, did not break up on the spot, and they were able to continue the bloody battle with the Ming army, which really exceeded the expectations of Daishan and Jierharang.

"Perhaps, Shang Kexi's minion is not so unbearable, let's continue to see." Dai Shan said lightly.

Zilharang also nodded in agreement and continued to look at the battlefield ahead.

Also surprised by the performance of the two white flags of the Han army was Li Dingguo, the chief general of the Ming army. Facing the gradually stabilizing front, Li Dingguo looked ahead with a frown, and his expression was gloomy.

Li Dingguo originally wanted to lead the army to defeat the two white flag soldiers and horses of the Han army in front of him in one fell swoop, and then took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, leading more than 40,000 soldiers to attack the 30,000 Manchurian army flag formation in the distance. However, the performance of Shang Kexi's troops was beyond Li Dingguo's expectations, and they were able to resist the onslaught of the Ming army under the condition that the army was in decline!

Li Dingguo thought about it for a while and made a decision.

"Order the officers and men of the Chinese army to immediately reorganize the army and attack with me!"

Although the strength of the army is only 3,000, these soldiers are all elites who have followed Li Dingguo to fight all the year round, and they are all soldiers who have been fighting for the rest of their lives. The combat power of these soldiers can be said to be the top existence in the whole army, and in Li Dingguo's many years of conquest and war, many crises have been overcome by relying on these elite Chinese soldiers to fight to the death.

Li Dingguo saw that the battle situation was once again in a stalemate, and knew that time was waiting for no one, and the hundreds of thousands of main forces of the Qing army were coming, and he must not continue to delay, and he must defeat the Qing army in front of him as soon as possible, otherwise the battle will take a sharp turn.

It didn't take long for the 3,000 officers and soldiers of the Chinese army to assemble, and they saw 3,000 soldiers wearing double heavy armor neatly arrayed, and their whole bodies were wrapped in heavy and fine armor, like an iron tower; All the soldiers held a long knife in their hands, and they also carried two javelins behind their backs, and at a glance, they knew that the attack power of these Chinese soldiers must be very amazing.

After receiving the military equipment provided by Liu Yunwei, Li Dingguo equipped these 3,000 soldiers with the most sophisticated armor and the sharpest swords, and sent the generals sent by the Hanwei Army to the Chinese army to conduct the most rigorous training for these 3,000 soldiers. It can be said that the 3,000 soldiers of the Chinese army are already strong in combat, and after Li Dingguo's careful construction at this time, their combat power has skyrocketed, which is no match compared with before!

Li Dingguo saw that the elite soldiers who had followed him for many years had been assembled, so he stood in front of the three thousand soldiers with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other. At this time, Li Dingguo's face was calm, looking at the bloody battle line in front of him, a sky-high battle intent spread out from Li Dingguo's body, and the thick murderous aura exuded by the 3,000 soldiers behind him gathered together, attracting the tens of thousands of soldiers around him to look sideways.

Li Dingguo, under the escort of 20 personal guards, stood in front of the formation of the 3,000-strong army, suddenly raised the war knife in his hand, and shouted: "Attack!" ”

After finishing speaking, Li Dingguo rushed out, and the twenty guards around him also rushed out.

"Wanse! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”

Three thousand soldiers roared angrily, followed Li Dingguo to charge in formation, the soldiers formed a diamond-shaped formation and rushed to the Han army not far away with two white flags, the surrounding Ming army soldiers saw this morale, one after another to get out of the way of the attack front, the middle of the two white flag formations of the Han army to give way.

Seeing this, Li Dingguo secretly shouted in his heart, and directly led the soldiers of the army to rush forward. When the 3,000 soldiers were thirty steps away from the two white flags of the Han army, Li Dingguo shouted: "Vote!" ”

The twenty guards also shouted loudly: "Vote! ”

"Whew! Call! Call! ”

The three thousand soldiers took off a javelin behind their backs almost at the same time, and threw the javelin in their hands towards the two white flags of the Han army in front of them at the same time.

I saw 3,000 heavy and sharp javelins soaring into the air, like a dark cloud leaping up from the horizon, smashing down towards the two white flags of the Han army, and immediately smashed the Qing army's military formation into a huge pit. At such a close distance, in the face of the projection of 3,000 heavy javelins, how could the two white flag soldiers and horses of the Han army dodge? Only this wave of throwing shot at least thousands of soldiers and horses of the Han army with two white flags!

Shang Kexi was so shocked that he almost fell to the ground, and shouted loudly with a pale face: "Go up!" Shield bearers all rush for me! ”

Thousands of shield bearers in the two white flag arrays of the Han army received Shang Kexi's order and immediately formed a formation and stepped forward, rushing through the front army of the large array that was already full of corpses, preparing to fill the gap in the entire large array.

However, these thousands of Han Army's two white flag shield bearers were unlucky, and they had just rushed to the gap, and before they had time to reorganize their formations and be armed, they ushered in the second wave of "javelin rain" projected by the 3,000 elites of Li Dingguo's department!

The thousands of Han army two white flag shield bearers who were still murderous just now suffered huge casualties in the blink of an eye, and the dense and swift "javelin rain" smashed down, killing most of the thousands of Qing shield bearers in an instant. Although the shields raised by those Qing shieldmen could easily block the bows and arrows that came from them, they could not be stopped by the infantry shields in the face of powerful and powerful javelins.

In the "javelin rain" that fell like raindrops, the shields raised by the two white flag shield bearers of the Han army were smashed one after another, turning into shattered sawdust, and the Qing soldiers hiding behind the shields were pierced through their bodies and turned into a brand-new corpse on the ground.

Seeing this, Li Dingguo immediately cheered, led the three thousand elite soldiers behind him to kill in one fell swoop, and directly rushed into the Han army's two white flag arrays.

At the same time, the entire Ming army was taking advantage of the situation to attack, and launched the final onslaught on the two white flag formations of the Han army from the entire front. All of a sudden, the entire Han Army's two white flag arrays were in turmoil, and they could collapse at any time.

At the gap where the elite soldiers of the 3,000 Chinese army broke through, more and more Ming soldiers rushed in with a roar, and the gap continued to expand, thus exacerbating the crisis of the Han army's two white flag arrays.

At this time, Shang Kexi was like an ant on a hot pot, walking around in the Chinese army. Seeing that the battle situation was like this, Shang Kexi knew that if he was defeated, he would definitely be dealt with by Daishan and Ji'er Harang, and such an ending was unacceptable to Shang Kexi, who was bent on currying favor with his master!

Shang Kexi thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't think of any good way to turn the tide of the battle, so he shouted loudly in a hurry: "The whole army charges!" Fight with the barbarians! ”

At this moment, a team of Manchurian Red Banner Iron Cavalry rushed to Shang Kexi's Chinese army, and a solid mountain Ezhen Ce stepped forward immediately, and said with an unkind expression: "On the order of Prince Li, Shang Kexi immediately led his troops and horses to retreat and let out the battlefield!" ”

After speaking, the Gushan Ezhen took people away without looking back, leaving only Shang Kexi, who was stunned.
