Chapter 160: Battle of the Wasteland
The Qing army began to line up, and a towering cloud chariot also rose in the middle of the Chinese army, and Dolgon led people to stand on top of it, overlooking the whole field, and dispatching and commanding from it.
The tall and thin Dorgon looked even weaker after a storm for the throne, and his face turned a little pale from the rapid march.
He has been suffering from wind disease since he was a child, and his body is weak. Years of fighting and busyness made his body even weaker.
However, although he did not become the emperor as he wished this time, he was also satisfied to become the auxiliary prince of the Qing Dynasty and become the actual ruler of the Qing Dynasty.
The originally weak body seemed to have been injected with a shot in the arm, so that these days every day is full of energy and excitement, suppressing those who are unstable internally, and leading troops to exterminate the Jiang family army externally, full of ambition, ready to revive the national prestige of the Qing Dynasty in one fell swoop.
Dolgon stood on top of the cloud car, looking at the Jiang Jiajun who was silent and motionless as a mountain on the opposite side, and a huge pressure came towards him, which made his heart condense.
What a formidable army indeed!
It's no wonder that my Qing warriors have repeatedly fallen in front of him, although they have not yet fought, this momentum alone is enough to make people's hearts tremble.
No, this battle can't be fought at their pace, otherwise it will be passive before it starts.
Dolgon thought for a moment and gave a resolute order: "Order the front army to call a formation and disturb the enemy's morale." ”
The flag soldier beside him hurriedly waved the big flag and issued an order to the Qing army in front.
The so-called call is actually a verbal cannon and scolding each other before the two sides start. On the one hand, it can boost the morale of its own side, and on the other hand, it can suppress the morale of the enemy army.
Morale is something that cannot be seen or touched, but it is a real presence in war, and it is very important.
If the other party can mess up because of the scolding, that is the best outcome, so that you can take advantage of it.
The soldiers in the front line of the Qing army began to shout and curse loudly in all kinds of swear words, foul language, and slang. Some Qing soldiers even untied their pants and exposed their buttocks to Jiang Jiajun, and all kinds of humiliation and disgusting gestures were made.
Even worse, he rode directly on a horse and galloped in front of Jiang Jiajun, shouting and scolding while galloping, and making all kinds of insulting actions.
The Qing army's behavior caused a commotion in the Jiang family's infantry array. Many soldiers were angry, their faces were red, their eyes were red, and they wanted to kill them immediately, but there was no military order, so many people turned their heads back to see where the Chinese army was.
These soldiers who were angered by the Qing army were all adapted from the Ming army and trained from the common people, but the original soldiers of the system were all indifferent one by one, and their faces did not change.
Jiang Chuan will see all this from the cloud car. In all fairness, he did have some anger in his heart, and he couldn't wait to give an order to trample these disgusting Qing troops into pulp.
But in the past half a year of battle experience, he has also read a lot of military books, and under the influence of Liu Ji, he is no longer the young and impulsive otaku, but has become a commander who is calm and learns to weigh and weigh things.
Perhaps his command ability is still insufficient, but his psychological quality is already qualified.
Jiang Chuan has a hundred field artillery and other weapons to help him fight, and today's way of fighting is to defend instead of attacking, and when the enemy collapses, he will send out cavalry to counterattack.
Now, if you move, the whole formation will be completely chaotic. Once the chaos is over, the enemy will take advantage of the situation, and it will end up being a scuffle.
Now that the enemy has just arrived, the morale is high, and at this time, as long as there is no hole in the brain, he will not move.
Su Qin next to him turned his eyes to look at the young lord beside him, and saw that his face was like water, not angry or frightened, indifferent and calm, with a slight appreciation in his eyes.
Hu Zongxian was still melancholy and motionless.
But some of the 10,000 cavalry on the left flank moved. Under the banner of the word "Di", a person galloped out of the formation, and the war horse galloped like flying, while galloping, he stretched out his hand to take off the bow and arrow next to the saddle, and opened the bow and arrow.
The man's blood-colored cloak flew behind him, his cloak was scattered, but his face was wearing a hideous bronze mask, tall and majestic, mighty and extraordinary, it was Di Qing, one of the sages of the Northern Song Dynasty who Jiang Chuan invited from the Xianliang Temple.
Di Qing was convicted because his brother fought with someone when he was a teenager, and Di Qing was convicted of being killed on behalf of his brother, and his face was tattooed. After entering the army, in order to cover the gold seal on his face, he always wore a bronze mask when he went into battle, and he became a "face general".
Di Qing has been fierce and brave since he was a child, especially good at riding and archery, it is said that he can shoot enemies a hundred steps away from the high-speed galloping war horse, and he also shoots two arrows together, known as the two dragons running to the moon.
Di Qing's main battlefield was in the war between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, and he fought twenty-five battles in his life, but he was never afraid of eight arrows in his body. The most famous is that in the first battle of Huangyou's five years to quell the rebellion of Nong Zhigao in Guangxi, the attack on Kunlun Pass on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month is the most famous.
He was clothed in every battle, charged into battle, took the lead, invincible, and the enemy changed his color because of this, and the people of the Great Song Dynasty and loyal ministers of the court such as Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi all appreciated Di Qing.
It's a pity that the Great Song Dynasty has always emphasized literature and light martial arts, and used literature to control martial arts, the greater Di Qing's merits, the higher his position, he was gradually suspicious of the imperial court, and finally died of depression.
After his death, he was highly respected and praised by the imperial court, which has to be said to be the tragedy of the times and the misfortune of Di Qing.
After Di Qing rushed out of the big formation alone, the eyes of everyone on both sides were attracted to him, and 100,000 pairs of eyes were closely watching his movements.
Dolgon's eyes froze, and he looked at the fierce general with a bronze mask who rushed out of the enemy formation, and his heart was beating for a while.
I saw that in the process of Di Qing's galloping horse, he had drawn out two arrows and put them on the bowstring at the same time, and pulled his right hand, and suddenly the bow was like a full moon, aiming at the Qing cavalry who were riding in front of the Jiang family army and scolding, and as soon as his fingers were loosened, the two arrows suddenly went offline, like two flying dragons roaring towards the two Qing troops with a thunderous momentum.
The two Qing cavalrymen were also good at riding and shooting, and although they were shocked when they saw the two arrows flying, they also reacted quickly, grabbed the saddle, and ran in two directions to dodge.
If they are allowed to escape, then Di Qing will not be called Di Qing.
He had already calculated the movements of the two men, and the two arrows hit the target almost simultaneously, one in the throat and the other in the chest, and both horses were carried down at the same time.
This move of the two dragons running to the moon divine skill stunned everyone, even many people in the Jiang family army showed admiration, and Ran Wu was even more admiring.
How many people in this world can have this magic skill, this courage to dare to stretch their horses and bow in front of an army of 100,000?
Seeing Di Qing so powerful, the morale of the Jiang family's army was greatly boosted, and the cheers suddenly sounded, and the sound was rolling, surging towards the Qing army.
However, the morale of the Qing army was gloomy.
Dolgon's face was solemn, and he said coldly: "Keep that enemy general for me, I must not let him return to his own camp alive." ”
The king's order was passed down in an instant, and dozens of Qing soldiers rushed out of the formation and surrounded Di Qing.
