Chapter Eighty-Seven: Qin Liangyu Asks for Help
"Pedal Pedal ~"
In the sound of the earth-shattering horses' hooves, soon a blue torrent appeared in the eyes of Qin Liangyu and the others, and it was actually thousands of Eight Banner cavalry wearing blue armor. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Kill!"
Looking at the Qin Liangyu army outside Banqiao Town, which had not yet been fully assembled, Aixin Jue Luo Nikan waved the war knife in his hand and ordered loudly.
Seeing this, the Blue Banner cavalry behind Nikan increased its speed again, and the 4,500 Eight Banner cavalry quickly killed Qin Liangyu's army.
"Boom!"
"Ah~"
The distance of hundreds of meters was approaching in an instant, and as soon as the front army of Qin Liangyu's army erected a gun array, the Eight Banners cavalry had already arrived, and the huge impact of the heavy cavalry instantly set off a wave of blood in Qin Liangyu's army array, and the screams continued to sound on the battlefield.
"Drink~"
Straddled on the war horse, Qin Liangyu kept drinking, and the spear in her hand drew spear flowers in the air, resisting the attack of the Eight Banners cavalry, and from time to time the children of the Eight Banners were buried under her spear.
"Great, Lord Nikan, they've arrived, everyone follow me!"
And in the army of the Thirty-two Villages Alliance, which was in chaos under the city of Banqiao Town, Lei Li shouted loudly when he saw this, and shouted as his soldiers killed the rear of Qin Liangyu's army again.
"Ah~"
In the fierce battlefield fighting, there were constantly white pole soldiers who began to die under the guns of the Eight Banners cavalry.
"Withdraw!"
Seeing this, Qin Liangyu in the formation knew that the defeat was decided, and immediately waved the spear in his hand and led the white pole soldiers under his command to begin to withdraw to the mountains and forests south of Banqiao Town.
The army fought and retreated all the way, and there were constantly white pole soldiers who died on the road under the pursuit of the Eight Banners cavalry.
When Qin Liangyu led the army to retreat to the mountains and forests, there were only more than 2,000 of the 6,000 white pole soldiers under his command, and more than half of them were killed and wounded in less than half an hour.
And when he came to the mountains and forests, Qin Liangyu finally led the white pole soldiers who were proficient in mountain warfare to block the advance of the army under Nikan, and Nikan took advantage of the situation to lead the Eight Banners cavalry and the alliance of the 32 villages to surround the mountains and forests of less than 2 square kilometers.
After failing to lead the army to break through the siege several times, with the subsequent addition of the slave army, the remnants of the 2,000 white pole soldiers led by Qin Liangyu were trapped here.
"Drive!"
On December 21, the first year of the Great Controversy, outside Qilin City, a fast horse galloped quickly towards Qilin City on the galloping road.
After nearly half a year of development, Qilin City at this time is far from being comparable to the small village when it was first established.
Three spacious galloping roads paved with bluestone slabs run from the east, west, and north directions, connecting other villages and towns outside the three directions leading to Kirin City.
The eastern wall has been built, and people and pedestrians are constantly coming and going at the gates.
Some merchants with pack horses in front of them walked out of Qilin City with a large number of goods with a happy face.
The boats coming and going on the south side of the river are endless, and there are constantly ships docking and sailing out here at the wharf on the shore, and the officials in charge of guarding the wharf are busy all day long, and the berthing fees collected for the ships alone are as high as hundreds of taels of gold every day.
Political stability and the stability of the situation made the business of Qilin City begin to prosper, and all kinds of goods produced in Qilin County have sales locations in the city, especially the unique exquisite weapons and armor, war horses and other strategic materials of Qilin County are the sought-after materials pursued by all parties.
Nowadays, Qilin City has become a huge distribution center, and has gradually developed into a commercial center in Qizhou, Jiangzhou, Bazhou, Banzhou and other places on both sides of the surrounding river, constantly handling a large number of materials.
A large number of businessmen came to Qilin City to purchase materials and look for business opportunities, and the daily floating population in the city was as high as thousands. Prosperous commerce has provided Qilin City with a large amount of tax revenue.
The knight on his horse quickly crossed the wide avenue in the middle of the city and galloped towards the city hall.
"My lord, there is an emergency!"
In the city administration hall, when Guoyuan, the magistrate of Qilin County, was discussing with Changshi Xianglang and others how to lay out the roads in the county, a guard walked in with a letter and reported to Guoyuan.
"Not good!"
After taking the letter in the guard's hand, Guo Yuan's face changed greatly after quickly browsing it.
"What's wrong?"
Xiang Lang Wenyan asked.
"Yesterday, General Qin Liangyu led the army to attack Banqiao Town, first won and then defeated, and was defeated by the army led by the Qing army Dutong Nikan who suddenly attacked, and is now trapped in the mountains and forests outside Banqiao Town. This is the news that the messenger who broke through the trapped Qin Liangyu's army rushed back to Dongliu Town overnight and ordered someone to send us a message, and General Qin Liangyu also hopes that we can quickly send troops to support," Guo Yuan quickly replied when he heard this.
"What! The Qing army marched so fast! ā
Xiang Lang was also shocked when he heard this.
A few days ago, the Thirty-Two Villages Alliance decided to surrender to the Qing army, and Qin Liangyu led the white pole soldiers to raid the Thirty-Two Villages Alliance, and both Guo Yuan and Xiang Lang knew about it.
Qin Liangyu's forces and Sima Yu's forces have always been good friends, and they both regard each other as allies.
Before sending troops, Qin Liangyu had already sent a letter to inform Sima Yu of her movements and intentions, and also expressed his intention to Sima Yu to help her at a critical moment.
Before leaving, Sima Yu had entrusted the affairs of the entire Qilin County to the two of them, and they also knew about Qin Liangyu's letter before Sima Yu.
However, who would have thought that Qin Liangyu, who was still powerful before, would be trapped outside Banqiao Town by the attacking Qing army, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
Once the Qing army calmly eliminated Qin Liangyu's army, after the Qing army digested the strength of the Thirty-two Village Alliance, the soldiers of Dongliu Town who stayed behind would definitely not be able to block the Qing army's troops.
And when the power of Dongliu Town is broken, Qilin County is about to face the attack of the Qing army.
"The lord is already on his way back, do you want to make a decision after informing the lord?"
Qilin County Gong Cao Lu Li on the side heard the words and suggested.
"No, at this time, the lord has just set off, and there are still nearly 3 days before returning to Qilin City, even if it is too late to report back and forth, let alone wait for the lord to return. If we don't send troops to the rescue, after Qin Liangyu is destroyed, the Qin Liangyu army left behind in Dongliu Town will inevitably have a grudge against the lord, and then it is very likely that they will be thrown into the arms of the Qing army, which will be very unfavorable to us. Therefore, we can't just sit back and watch Qin Liangyu be destroyed."
Xiang Lang immediately objected when he heard this.
With Qin Liangyu's current situation, I'm afraid it won't last long, how can there be time for them to report back and forth to Sima Yu.
"What Juda said is reasonable, time does not allow us to report to the lord slowly, we must immediately send troops to find a way to rescue General Qin Liangyu, come here, immediately go to General Wang Yanzhang, General Wang Yantong, Long Wei, Long Meng, Che Liji, Hu Chuquan and Gu Changfeng Commander Shi to invite, there are important matters to discuss"
Guo Yuan also agreed with Xiang Lang's opinion, and immediately summoned a guard and ordered him to send someone to inform Wang Yanzhang and others to come to discuss the dispatch of troops.
In the afternoon of the same day, the entire Qilin City was quickly mobilized, and a large number of vehicles and horses began to carry a large amount of grain, grass, ordnance and other materials and began to go out in the northwest direction, along the road in the direction of Dongliu Town.
The logistics supply team had just set off, and the 2,000 cavalry under the command of Hu Chuquan and Cheriji, as well as the 2,000 brocade guards under the command of Gu Changfeng, came out of the West Gate together, with Gu Changfeng as the commander, to support Qin Liangyu.
At the same time, the 4,000 Qilin sailors who were responsible for staying behind also began to load 5,000 soldiers of the Shaking Mountain Battalion, as well as full of grain and grass materials along the river.
The two armies advanced by land and water, and jointly sent troops to support and rescue Qin Liangyu.
As for the three battalions under the command of Wang Yantong, Long Wei, and Long Meng, the three battalions of the Changfeng Battalion, the Guoyi Army, and the Huben Battalion were dispatched because they had just been established and had not yet completed their training, and they stayed behind to guard the Qilin temporarily.
"Kill!"
"Ahh
ćććććć
Outside Tongping Village, two military horses are fighting fiercely with each other.
On one side is the well-armed white pole soldiers with only 3,000 people, and on the other side is the 32 village alliance led by the Lei family, with a total of nearly 8,000 people.
On a wide plain outside Tongping Village, 3,000 white pole soldiers lined up in a phalanx, and under the leadership of Wu Yu, a general under Qin Liangyu, they resisted the siege of the Thirty-two Village Alliance.
Not far from the battlefield where the two armies were fighting, an elite cavalry of 600 men was waiting for them.
"These Han people are really unreliable, and they can't even take each other with nearly 3 times the number of people"
Looking at the thirty-two village alliance forces in front of them, which had begun to retreat under the fierce attack of the white pole soldiers, Wu Bahai pouted in front of the cavalry phalanx and said disdainfully.
Wubahai, a man with a blue flag, is now a bull who leads a bull and a blue flag cavalry.
The 600-strong cavalry in front of him is the two bull lug blue flag cavalry that went out with Nikan to Jumei County this time.
"How can these rabble be the elite opponents in front of them, if it weren't for us and didn't dare to go all out, I'm afraid that the alliance of the Thirty-two Villages would have been defeated at this time" Fei Yanggu, who was also a bull and a real person, said with disdain on his face when he heard this.
As the fierce generals of the Qing army, the two naturally disdained the two armies of the Thirty-two Village Alliance, which were overwhelmed.
"It's time to end the fight!"
After speaking, Feiyangu pulled out the war knife at his waist and said.
"Woo~"
The horn sounded, and the 600 cavalry quickly activated, rushing towards the battlefield like a blue torrent.
"Bang!"
"Ah~"
Carrying the momentum of Haoran, the two Niu Lu inlaid blue flag cavalry quickly crashed into the battlefield, and directly blocked the white pole soldiers and the 32 village alliance alliance forces in front of them.
On the day Nurhachi established the Eight Banners, these Eight Banners brothers received good training since childhood, and before coming to this world, they almost destroyed the entire Ming Dynasty through war.
In terms of equipment and combat quality, the 32 Village Alliance Alliance, a ragtag army that has only received primary training and has no faith or military spirit, is far from being able to compare with it.
Even the white-pole soldiers who have been carefully trained by Qin Liangyu are not much worse than these elite Eight Banner cavalry.
And when the formation of 3000 white pole soldiers was divided by 600 cavalry, the victory or defeat of the war was already decided.
The war outside Tongping soon ended, with more than 1,000 killed by 3,000 white pole soldiers and the rest taken prisoner. And in the melee, in the melee, the coalition forces of the Thirty-two Villages Alliance also suffered many casualties under the impact of the blue flag cavalry, leaving a lot of corpses on the battlefield.
After dealing with the white pole soldiers led by Wu Yu, Wu Bahai and Fei Yanggu set off again with the coalition army wrapped in the Thirty-two Village Alliance, and went straight to Shiban Village under Qin Liangyu's command.
