Chapter 207: Bloody Battle against Ning Yuan

When life and death want to fight, it is the character of a warrior to be resolute and fearless. But the joy and excitement of escaping death is inevitable.

Listening to the cheers in their ears, the recruits looked dazed, and only those ten-year-old soldiers knew why they were cheering. These border troops fought fiercely every day, and they knew very little about the situation in the pass. I only know that the capital has changed an emperor, and his surname is still Zhu. What they were more concerned about was when the Jurchens would come to attack Qiugu again, and when they would come again to invade the land and kill the soldiers and civilians.

Dolgon charged with a white flag, just in time to catch up with Zhao Hong and them. The Eight Banners discovered the reinforcements of the Ming army, but they did not panic and quickly stabilized. As soon as the two sides touched, the battle entered a white heat. The cavalry of the Eight Banners did not have flintlock muskets, but they were skilled in arching and horses, and they fired arrows on their horses, and the arrows came quickly and quickly. Many Ming troops were shot off their horses before they could rush to the front of the formation.

Cao Bianjiao broke his arm in Tongguan and missed a bloody battle, but at this time he recovered from his injuries, and it was such a fierce battle as soon as he entered the battlefield. He sat down on a white horse, with a silver spear in his hand, very imposing but also very conspicuous. I don't know how many girls are real marksmen, aiming at him. Cao Bianjiao rode into the formation and saw a young man in the enemy formation, surrounded by his own soldiers, unstoppable. Cao Bianjiao screamed and took this young man directly.

Dolgon cut down several people one after another, but he didn't expect that there would be a Ming general who would dare to fight him. He sneered and was about to step forward to fight. The soldiers around him were willing to put their master in danger, and if Dorgon died, none of them would want to live. Behind Dolgon, the tower-like man is the best archer and hunter in the white flag. He pulled out three feathered arrows from the quiver and fired them in a row. Cao Bianjiao was only focused on Dolgon, and casually pushed away the first one, but he didn't expect the other party to shoot continuously, and hurriedly dodged the second one, and the third arrow hit him in the chest.

Enduring the severe pain, Cao Bianjiao pulled out a sharp arrow, and the angry blood pierced the pupils. The barb on the arrow opened a gap, which hurt people's hearts, but he didn't care, and rode forward.

Although Dolgon was young, he had already fought countless battles, and was accustomed to the cowardice of the Han and Koreans. It's the first time I've seen such a brave general. He has his own arrogance, does not dodge or dodge, and rushes forward with a knife. Cao Bianjiao was conspicuous, and the Ming troops in the distance saw him enter the enemy formation, and they also raised their guns to cover and shoot down the Eight Banners soldiers beside him. Cao Bianjiao was stopped by Dolgon's entourage, and without saying a word, the spear in his hand waved like lightning, swinging the weapons of the two. These two people are also rare warriors in the Jurchen clan, but they still can't stop this thunderous blow. When Dorgon saw this terrifying momentum, he was also frightened, and he hurriedly stepped forward and twisted his waist, and with all his strength, he raised his sword violently.

The guns and knives of the two sides intersected, sparks flew everywhere, Cao Bianjiao grew up in the military camp, and his martial arts had reached the peak, and Ma Lingshan was not even inferior to Yue Chenfeng back then. With a spear, he swung the knife in Dolgon's hand, and Dolgon only felt the tiger's mouth tingle, and the scimitar in his hand fell in response.

The spear in Cao Bianjiao's hand was like a strange snake, following closely and not giving an inch, and it was about to pierce Dolgon with one shot. Dolgon's own soldiers, with a strange scream, pounced. Cao Bianjiao saw his hands, but unexpectedly, someone blocked the gun with his body. Dolgon, who had been caught by the shot, lost his mind for a moment, but finally relented, got up and fled. Cao Bianjiao didn't expect that this Tartar, who seemed to be a nobleman, would be so knowledgeable about current affairs. A spear was thrown up in the middle of the line, for he had gone deep into the enemy's line, and there was no more bow and arrow.

The son of the daughter can't sit down, Zhao Hong is now the commander of the three armies, and he is the prince of the country, so he naturally will not risk the arrow stone and go into battle to kill the enemy. After pressing the formation, seeing that the fierce battle was raging in front of the formation, Zhao Hong's face sank like water, and with a slight wave, the soldiers holding big swords behind him scattered, revealing the black barrel behind him.

Yuan Chonghuan used to use artillery to deal with the fierce Jurchens, but he had never seen so many artillery pieces in his life. There was a look of excitement and greed in his eyes, and he looked at Zhao Hong commanding Ruoding. The artillery that Yang Xiaomiao transported from the sea was mighty in Ningyuan. This was built by Shen Muhong himself on the island of Taiwan with the arsenal left by Zheng Zhilong. Please, the craftsmen of the Franc machine, these cannons have a long range, great power, and are suitable for field combat.

The loud noise that shook the sky not only made it difficult for the Jurchen cavalry to parry, but even the horses sitting down were a little flustered. On the side of the Ming army, Zhao Hong had already ordered to block the horse's ears, although it also had an impact, but it was relatively small. The cannon is dedicated to hitting the enemy's rear, and Huang Taiji saw that although his Eight Banners soldiers were still not afraid of death, it was obvious that they would not be able to take Ningyuan City today. If it continues to be consumed like this, Daming can afford to consume it, but they don't have so many soldiers.

And this time the Ming artillery, I don't know why, the range is extremely long, and Huang Taiji is also afraid of following in the footsteps of Nurhachi and being bombarded by a cannon. As a last resort, Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and ordered: "Retreat!" "One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion. With this retreat, Ningyuan City will be difficult to capture. This time, when he led the troops into the customs, not only did he not take slaves and food, but he even lost a lot of money. His prestige in the clan was inevitably affected, which made him angry and gloomy.

Under Ningyuan City, a burst of cheers erupted, which was heartfelt joy. They were originally an abandoned army, and the governor took them to guard their homes and protect the land, but the governor of Jiliao had already retreated to Shanhaiguan and did not send a single soldier. In Ningyuan City, most of the people who were relocated came from the Jinzhou area and even further north. Their homeland is now occupied by the Jurchens, their relatives are slaves and maids, and their land is sprinkled with the blood of their fathers, sons, and grandmothers.

As soon as the Ming army, which had repelled the Jurchens, entered the city, they enjoyed the treatment that heroes should have. After Salhu, in Liaodong, they have always been lambs to the slaughter. The Jurchens came to plunder from time to time, they were used to fleeing, and this time they saw the hope of settling in Ningyuan, although it was still very faint, it was enough for them to be happy.

The praise of the mountains and tsunamis makes every soldier proud. Their faces were full of pride, this was a turning point in Liaodong. With Zhao Hong entering the city, it was not only the combat troops. There was a steady stream of grain transporters, and a long queue formed from Shanhaiguan.

Coming to Ningyuan City, Zhao Hong, Yuan Chonghuan and other officials gathered at the Yamen, Zhao Hong as a duke, a high position, everyone finished worshipping, Zhao Hong said: "Ningyuan is backed by the sea, and the top priority is to open up a port on Juehua Island." Our warships and supplies can be delivered. ”

Daming Water Division, although it has always been claimed that he has not tasted defeat, his strength is really not very good. Yuan Chonghuan and the others were confused, where did the battleship come from?
