Section 6 Raptors Crossing the River (1)
Two days later, Liu Yunwei gathered all the soldiers and horses of the Hanwei Army, and hundreds of thousands of Hanwei soldiers drove towards the Feiyu Battalion camp; At the same time, Liu Yunwei also collected more than 500 large and small ships on the river outside the Feiyu camp, preparing to launch a full-scale attack on the Qing army on the east bank.
Lu Ying, Wen Poyu, Wu Xing, Li Tianhao, Zhao Kaishan, Wang Gandang, Huang Fuming, Zhou Tianyi, Hu Kun and others were all enthusiastic when they learned the news that Liu Yunwei was preparing to storm and cross the river. Everyone stood on the shore and looked at the hundreds of thousands of troops that had been assembled, and looked at the overwhelming Ming battle flag, and the battle intent in their chests was almost like rushing into the sky of the nine heavens.
Zhou Tianyi pointed to the more than 500 boats on the river, and said in high spirits: "Supervisor, please see, these more than 500 ships can transport more than 7,000 soldiers at a time, and can almost transport a war battalion to the opposite bank at one time!" With the combat strength of the officers and men of our Hanwei army, a battalion can completely defeat the Qing army defending on the east bank and occupy a beachhead position on the east bank! ”
As soon as the words fell, Lu Ying, Wen Poyu, Wu Xing, Li Tianhao, Zhao Kaishan, Wang Gandang, Huang Fuming and others all stepped forward to ask for battle, shouting that they would be the first to lead the army to the east coast.
Liu Yunwei smiled and waved his hand, and then said: "Don't underestimate the combat power of the Qing army, they are not a rabble like thieves, they are the elite of a hundred battles, and they are a group of evil wolves!" Even if Huang Taiji is very likely to take away the main force of the Qing army, he must have left enough troops on the east bank, so the first batch of soldiers of our army to cross the river to attack must be a battalion that is good at foot combat and good at attacking fortifications! ”
When everyone heard this, they all focused their eyes on Wu Xing and Wang Dangdang, after all, among the various battalions of the Hanwei Army, the trapping camp led by Wu Xing and the Zhichong battalion led by Wang Dangdang were the best at foot combat and fortification.
Therefore, everyone knew that the first battalion to cross the river in this battle must have fallen into the camp and folded the camp!
Sure enough, after Liu Yunwei pondered for a while, he said loudly: "In this battle, Wu Xing led the trapped camp to fight the first formation, Wang Dangdang led the Zhichong battalion to fight the second formation, Lu Ying led the Feiyu battalion to fight the third formation, Gao Hongguang led the Yingyang battalion to fight the fourth formation, Zhao Kaishan led the Huben battalion to fight the fifth formation, Li Tianhao led the Yueqi battalion to fight the sixth formation, and Huang Fuming led the Yulin battalion to fight the seventh formation. ”
After listening to Liu Yunwei's words, everyone was excited, and Zhao Kaishan laughed loudly and said, "Big brother, how many Qing troops are left on the other side now?" Our army is fighting such a wheel war, and how many Qing troops are not enough to kill. I bet this battle is over before my Tiger Battalion soldiers appear! ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
An hour later, Wu Xing personally led the soldiers of the trapped camp C to board the ship first, while the soldiers of the trapped camp A and B were on standby on the shore in turn. More than 500 ships formed an arrow-shaped assault formation on the river, and more than 7,000 soldiers of the C Battalion were ready to fight on more than 500 boats with birds in their hands!
Liu Yunwei looked at the soldiers who were ready to go, and said loudly: "Drums!" Cheer on the soldiers! ”
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
The fierce war drums sounded on the west bank, and the majestic sound resounded in the sky, almost enveloping the wide surface of the Liao River.
At this time, listening to the passionate sound of war drums, Wu Xing and the other first soldiers only felt that the blood in their bodies was almost boiling, and the cold river wind on the river surface almost had no effect on the soldiers!
Wu Xing saw that the army had been prepared, so he shouted: "Go!" Sweep the river! Kill! ”
"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”
More than 7,000 soldiers of the trapped battalion roared in unison, and set sail in more than 500 boats against the bitter cold wind, rushing towards the east bank.
Thousands of sails transit, like a tiger out of the cage!
At the same time, the camp of the Qing army on the east bank of the Liao River was already in chaos, and after receiving an urgent report from the sentinel about the dispatch of the Hanwei army, Haoge hurriedly ordered the soldiers and horses of the Zhenglan Banner led by himself, the soldiers and horses with the white flag led by Duoduo, and the two blue banner Han troops led by Kong Youde all dispatched.
Hauge ordered Kong Youde to immediately lead the Han army of the two blue flags to board the ship to meet the battle, and to block the Han army above the river at any cost; At the same time, Hauge ordered Duoduo to lead the soldiers and horses with white flags to garrison the temporarily built tidal flat defense line outside the camp, preparing to block and defeat Kong Youde's troops and land the Hanwei army.
After sending Duoduo and Kong Youde out, Hauge concentrated all the soldiers and horses of the Zhenglan Banner led by him into the camp, preparing to defend the camp with all his strength at the last moment.
After receiving the order, Kong Youde did not dare to delay at all, and immediately led more than 7,000 Zhenglan Banner Han troops to board more than 500 ships, most of which were equipped with strong bows and crossbows. At the same time, Kong Youde also left all the remaining soldiers and horses of the Han army of the Zhenglan Banner and the soldiers and horses of the Han army with the Blue Banner on the tidal flats and handed them over to Duoduo to command, so as to strengthen the defense force of the tidal flats on the east bank.
After more than 7,000 Han troops with the Blue Banner were ready to go, Kong Youde gave an order to lead the army to set off, and rushed towards the center of the river under the gaze of Duoduo and Hauge.
Only less than half an hour later, the iconic roar of the Han Wei Army was heard on the surface of the Liaohe River, as if there was a sudden muffled thunder on the surface of the Liaohe River, and the resounding continued!
Listening to the piercing roar of birds on the river, Duoduo's brows furrowed, and his face became more and more ugly.
"Listening to the sound of birds over there is so dense, the strength of the Hanwei army that came to attack this time is at least more than 5,000 people, and most of them are elite bird guns, it seems that Kong Youde will not last long!"
Thinking of this, Duoduo hurriedly retreated hundreds of paces back with the white flag, and arranged them all into the second line of defense on the tidal flat; After that, Duoduo arranged more than 30,000 people in the two blue banner Han troops left by Kong Youde on the first line of defense, preparing to use these Han army eight banner soldiers to consume the strength of the Han Wei army.
At this moment, the Liaohe River was already in full swing, and the Hanwei army fleet composed of more than 500 ships, under the command of Wu Xing, transformed the formation into a huge half-moon shape and rushed towards the oncoming fleet of Kong Youde's troops.
At a distance of less than 100 paces between the two sides, Wu Xing ordered the whole army to open fire immediately, striving to disperse all the traitor troops on the opposite side in a short time.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
A fierce roar of birds resounded throughout the river, and more than 7,000 soldiers of the C Battalion of the trapped camp attacked the Zhenglan Banner Han Army not far away, and immediately killed and wounded the Zhenglan Banner Han Army.
At least hundreds of people were shot, screamed and fell off the boat, sinking into the icy river, instantly dyeing the river around the battlefield bright red.
Kong Youde was also blinded by the fierce shooting of the Han Wei army, and when he came back to his senses, the formation of the Han army fleet of the Zhenglan Banner was already a little panicked, and the boats in front of him had even crossed over, and they were spinning in place on the river, and most of the Han soldiers on the boat were screaming, looking panicked.
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows of the whole army! Shoot those Ming soldiers for me! ”
Kong Youde knew that he couldn't go on like this, so he hurriedly shouted loudly, trying to shoot at the Hanwei army with a dense rain of arrows at close range, hoping to turn the tide of the battle and even defeat the menacing Hanwei army.
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
The river was filled with gunsmoke, arrows were flying, and the sound of birds roaring and arrows flying through the air was endless. The Han army of the Zhenglan Banner kept being hit and fell into the water screaming; At this time, the soldiers of the Hanwei army also began to suffer casualties, and many soldiers were shot by the arrows of the Qing army, and fell into the boat with a muffled snort.
Wu Xing was furious when he saw this, and immediately mobilized twenty ships to form an assault team, equipped all the soldiers with earth-shaking mines, and prepared to rush to the front of the Qing army fleet at any cost, and bombard the Qing army's ships at close range with the sky-shaking mines, so as to completely defeat the Qing army's fleet.
It didn't take long for the Hanwei army assault fleet to rush up against the wind and waves, and more than 300 Hanwei army officers and soldiers on board were all armed with bird guns and earth-shaking thunder tied to their waists, ready to deal a fatal blow to the Qing army fleet not far away.
Seeing this, Kong Youde also saw the killing intent of this Hanwei army assault fleet, and hurriedly shouted: "Concentrate on the arrows!" Shoot them! Shoot the arrows! ”
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
The dense rain of arrows continued to fall in the sky above the assault fleet, and the soldiers of the Hanwei Army on the ship were suddenly shot down dozens of people, but the rest of the soldiers were still not afraid of life and death, and rushed forward with all their might, and the soldiers only had a strong hatred for the Tartars in their eyes, and the pride of seeing death as home!
Twenty steps from each other!
A hundred generals in the assault fleet suddenly shouted: "Throw! ”
"Whew! Call! Call! ”
Hundreds of sparkling earth-shattering thunderbolts were thrown out and smashed into the Qing fleet, and after a burst of violent explosions, at least 30 Qing ships were blown apart, and sank into the water with the miserable shouts of the soldiers of the Han army under the blue flag.
Seeing this, Wu Xing immediately commanded the main army to rush forward, and the soldiers of the C Battalion of the trapped camp attacked the Qing army fleet that was already in chaos, and the fierce sound of birds made everyone feel a huge shock.
Kong Youde's eyes were also red at this time, and he kept roaring in his hoarse voice, trying to make the fleet of the Zhenglan Banner Han Army, which had collapsed, regroup and turn the tide of the war. However, all Kong Youde's efforts turned into nothingness in the screams of his subordinates, and in the blink of an eye, the Qing fleet broke out, and many Qing ships fled towards the east bank on their own.
Seeing this, Kong Youde knew that this battle was irreparable, so he immediately ordered to retreat, and escaped with his life first.
