Chapter 689: Under the Random Gun

Yangguan Fort is about 60 miles away from Fuzhou City, all the way under the whip, in less than an hour, this fiery Zhuangnida Thorn, shouted all the way from the west gate into Fuzhou City. X

In the city of Fuzhou, the owner of the white flag and the ten beylers or the ten kings of the Dajin Kingdom, he soon got the news that a large number of Ming naval warships had appeared in Fuzhou Bay, Yangguan Fort was shelled by warships, and the Ming army was about to land.

Duoduo, who was sullen because he could not personally lead the army to the battle, asked clearly that there were only 60 large and small warships in the Ming army in Fuzhou Bay, and there were only 12 small boats that could transport troops to the shore.

At about midnight, Duoduo, dressed in a silver helmet and silver armor, led a bull Lu with a white flag to protect the guards, ignoring the opposition of the white-flag Meler Ezhen Ba Du Li, who stayed in Fuzhou City, took a horse whip to pull away the Ba Du Li, who was not allowed to leave the city, and then rushed out of the west gate of Fuzhou City with a roar.

The western part of Fuzhou City, from north to south, along the coast is a shallow hilly area, of which the highest terrain is Camel Mountain, according to the algorithm of later generations, the highest peak is about 300 meters.

At the southern edge of Camel Mountain, six or seven miles away from the west gate of Fuzhou City, there is a shallow valley that runs northeast and southwest, which is the closest road from Fuzhou City to the coast of Yangguanbao.

The hills on both sides of the valley are not high and the slopes are gentle, but the hills are overgrown with trees, and the valley roads are also full of shrubs and tall grass.

The white-flaged Zhuangnida Thorn from Yangguan Fort rode past on horseback, completely oblivious to the dense forests and bushes on both sides, and there was a Ming soldier who could crawl and hide enough to block the valley.

At the same time that Duoduo led his army out of Fuzhou City, Li Xin, who had survived an early winter night wearing a felt blanket in the dense forest of Camel Mountain, was hungry and cold and haggard with his musketeers and pikemen, crawling under a thick layer of dead branches and leaves, holding a telescope to observe the direction of Fuzhou City anxiously.

Li Xin, who led the army to set up an ambush for the first time, was extremely nervous.

Since he led his army north, Li Xin has repeatedly changed his original battle plan, and led his army across the ocean, over mountains and mountains, and every time he was sneaky, hiding in Tibet, and going around in circles, not only Zhang Kedu, who was commanded by Li Xin, complained a lot, but even Yang Yuchun, Wang Yiming, and others who were directly under the town guard mansion were also miserable, and repeatedly put forward opinions to Li Xin through Li Yu.

If this time the judgment is wrong, and the Jianyu in Fuzhou City does not pass through this place, then the prestige of Li Xin, the town guard, will be completely destroyed at once.

Just when Li Xin was more and more suspicious of whether his judgment was really wrong, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came from a distance!

At the same time, there was a commotion on Li Xin's side and in the bushes on the opposite hillside more than a hundred steps away.

Li Xin knew that his judgment was correct, and he was afraid that someone would not be able to hold his breath and sabotage this ambush, so he immediately gave an order in a low voice: "Hold steady!" Steady! ”

Li Xin listened intently to the sound of the horse's hooves from far to near, getting closer and closer, but soon there were doubts in his heart.

This sound of horses' hooves is not the main force of Fuzhou City, it should be the pioneer of Fuzhou City!

So should you give the order to attack now, or wait for the arrival of the Jianyu Brigade in Fuzhou City before attacking?

Before Li Xin could make a final decision, this cavalry of more than 300 people had already rushed into the ambush point in this section of the narrowest part of the valley, and a "bang" of gunfire was heard on the opposite hillside!

Li Xin immediately stood up from the dead branches and leaves on the ground, held a spear and shouted, "Fire!" Fire! ”

In an instant, on both sides of this shallow ravine, a dense burst of gunfire rang out!

White smoke filled the ravine, and more than 2,000 musketeers who suddenly stood up on both sides of the ravine, completely enveloped it.

The armor-clad Duoduo suddenly changed, and saw the heavily armored guards around him fall from their horses one after another, and immediately shouted: "Rush over!" Rush over! Can't stop! ”

Dodor's immediacy was certainly right.

In a ravine like this, where the cavalry is suddenly ambushed as they travel at high speed, the best option is to continue to pass at high speed.

Once you stop, you're dead.

However, Duoduo's impromptu response seemed to be correct, but in order to let the Jianyu brigade in Fuzhou City pass through quickly on horseback, Li Xin had already let Wang Yiming lead a thousand pikemen under his command to ambush in the southwest of the musketeer's ambush position.

As soon as the musketeers fired from the ambush positions on this side, Wang Yiming led a thousand pikemen to rush down from the dense forests on both sides of the road.

Just as the remaining dozens of horsemen led by Duoduo were about to rush out of the musketeers' ambush position, the pikemen under Wang Yiming's command had already rushed onto the road in the ravine.

Under Wang Yiming's loud command, a thousand pikemen were slightly chaotic but layered to point the dense spears in the direction where the captives had been.

The number of horsemen who rushed to the front, seeing that the guns were pointing at them but could not contain the horses' hooves, they loaded the guns one after another, and at the same time that some of the spears were broken, these horsemen with white flags and guards waved their teeth and fell to the ground with their horses.

Finally feeling frightened, the white-flag-inlaid banner lord Duoduo, under the escort of the remaining swinging teeth, turned his horse's head and shouted loudly: "Retreat! Fall back! ”

Issuing such an order at this time was obviously a chaotic order, because at this moment, in addition to the gun forest in front of them, dozens of steps behind them and on the left and right sides were already densely packed with Ming soldiers.

These Ming soldiers and soldiers all carried Chongzhen's front-loading flintlock smoothbore guns, and aimed and locked the remaining dozens of cavalry prisoners one by one.

For the first time, I felt the fear of Dodor, riding his horse and spinning around the road.

He never thought that the Ming army would dare to take the sailor ship directly into the hinterland of the Dajin Kingdom, and dare to set up an ambush and attack him under his nose!

When did the Ming army of the Southern Dynasty have such guts!?

But he didn't have time to think about it anymore.

And Li Xin, who used to observe Duoduo with a telescope outside the north gate of Fuzhou City, saw him again at this time and knew that he was a big fish.

In particular, based on his age, it has been speculated that he is likely to be the owner of the white flag, Dodor.

Therefore, for the remaining dozens of horsemen, he wanted to capture them alive so that they could be sacrificed under the noon gate in the future.

Being able to sacrifice prisoners under the noon gate is the pinnacle of their personal martial arts for any civilian and military general who commands the army!

However, Duoduo, who was surrounded by the crowd, obviously didn't want to be captured alive by the Ming army.

As soon as Li Xin shouted "dismount and surrender, surrender and don't kill", Duoduo suddenly rushed towards the gentle hillside with his horse's belly, shouting "go up the hill and go up the mountain" in his mouth, while waving the saber in his hand and slashing wildly.

Li Xin's dream of offering a prisoner to Yu Wumen, which had just risen, was directly shattered, and when he saw this situation, he immediately shouted loudly: "Shoot!" Kill them! Kill them! ”

There was a burst of gunfire, and dozens of horsemen who were rushing towards the weak point of the encirclement with their teeth and claws fell to the ground and died in the midst of the screams and neighing of horses.

Duoduo, who rushed to the front, although he was wearing heavy armor, could not stop the bombardment of dozens of muskets close at hand, and after a dense burst of gunfire, he finally fell off his horse with his eyes wide open and angry in anger.

Originally, in history, the Jurchen king, who led the Manchu army across the Central Plains and slaughtered countless Han people, died under the indiscriminate guns in this little-known ravine.

Following the white flag lord Duoduo went to Yangguan Fort with great interest to prepare to beat a bull of the Ming army landing army, three hundred white flag guards, none of them ran away, and all died in this inconspicuous ravine.

And the losses they caused to Li Xin's subordinates were almost negligible, except for the pikemen who stopped on the road to block Duoduo and others under the high-speed collision of horses, and injured six people.
