Chapter 450: Deterrence
Hearing Wu Shuang's words, everyone was silent, and at this time, Gao Yeyi of the death brigade walked over.
came to Ma Xiaoliu and bowed, and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for taking a step and saving the honor of the Death Brigade." Dare to ask your Excellency's name, and the Death Brigade will repay you! ”
Ma Xiaoliu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No! No! Our captain will repay me for my merits, so I won't bother you! ”
Gao Ye bowed again and said, "Your Excellency is a real soldier, and Gao Ye admires it very much. This is my personal trophy, please accept it! After speaking, Gao Ye handed over a small jade Buddha.
The Jade Buddha is white all over, and it has a warm feeling in the hands in this early spring, and it is not ordinary at a glance.
After Ma Xiaoliu took the Jade Buddha, Gao Ye turned around and left. The surrounding robes all came up and wanted to take a look at the Jade Buddha, but they were driven away by Wu Shuang.
"Do you know how much this thing is worth? If it's broken, you will have to sell Yongye Tian to accompany Xiao Liuzi! Wu Shuang's words made the other soldiers speechless.
"Little Liuzi! This thing is carved from the top Hetian white jade, and it is worth at least five hundred taels of silver. Put it away! If it is broken, beware of regrets! ”
After hearing this, Ma Xiaoliu just held the Jade Buddha in his hand, for fear that he would fall to the ground by mistake.
Wu Shuang looked at the envious gazes of the soldiers around him and said: "This is Xiao Liuzi who fought with his life, as long as you dare to work hard in the Changxing Army, you will have a better treasure in the future!" ”
After listening to Wu Shuang's words, the eyes of the other soldiers lit up. The next time I have a chance, I must ...... it.
The battle in Fuzhou City ended before dark, and the entire Changxing army entered Fuzhou City. Wu Tieniu did not encounter Huang Taiji's men and horses ten miles away, and he left the personnel to investigate and retreated into Fuzhou City.
The arrival of the Changxing army made the Liao people in the city cry excitedly. The Jurchens persecuted many Han Chinese in Fuzhou for several years, causing many families to die.
When the imperial army came back, many people took the initiative to help the Changxing army repair the city wall. Some people even gave up their houses to the Changxing army to live in, and some people sent the small amount of food at home to the hands of the Changxing army.
In this regard, Changxingjun politely refused the help of the Liao people in Fuzhou. The Changxing army's victory over the Jurchens did not rely on the city wall, but on their unyielding backbone, their iron-like discipline, and their yearning for a better life.
The city walls of Fuzhou were only blocked with sandbags, but the moats outside the city were further widened and deepened. Many dark pits were built inside, bamboo sticks were buried, and they waited for the arrival of the Jurchens.
Huang Taiji led an army of 15,000 to a distance of fifty miles from Fuzhou, and was very surprised when he saw Mang Gurtai dying with an arrow on his back.
He didn't expect Fuzhou City to fall so quickly, and in the face of the unawakened Mang Gurtai, Huang Taiji could only let people try their best to heal them, and then send people to Shengjing.
Huang Taiji did not immediately order the whole army to march to Fuzhou, but ordered to camp in place. and called the soldiers who had fled back from Fuzhou to interrogate with Turge.
I heard that Dongjiang Town first sent troops to Jinzhou and induced Zonomu to lead the battle. After a long period of attack, he could not reinforce Bijiabao with heavy losses, but was ambushed by the Changxing army and annihilated.
Huang Taiji scolded Mang Gurtai for being stupid, and no matter how simple the tactics of diverting the tiger from the mountain, he would be fooled.
Golden State is just a bait, and if you lose it, you will take it over in the future. If Zonomu can't be captured for a long time, he should immediately retreat back to the state, instead of letting the demoralized minions go to reinforce Bijiabao.
How can such a remnant defeated army be the opponent of the wolf-like Changxing army? Failure is inevitable.
If Mang Gurtai didn't fight for the trenches outside the city with the Changxing army, how could he hold out until he arrived.
After exhausting the troops, I remembered that it was too late to defend Fuzhou, and defeat was inevitable.
The defection of Liu Xingzuo, the 50,000 army of Fuzhou City, took away 10,000 Han army flags, and the battle of Jinzhou lost more than 6,000, and the loss of Zhuangbao on the periphery was not small, when Bijiabao was defeated, there were less than 20,000 people in the hands of Mang Gurtai in Fuzhou City.
It is impossible for the Changxing army to annihilate so many troops without losses, how many troops can Zhang Dou have left in his hands now?
Eight thousand? Six thousand? Or less than five thousand? Huang Taiji was not in a hurry to attack Fuzhou immediately, anyway, it had already been destroyed, and it was impossible to repair it in a short time.
How many cavalry will there be? Is it all or half. If Zhang Dou can still have such a cavalry in his hands, how should he deal with it?
He sent a large number of scouts to find out the situation in Fuzhou City, so as to decide whether to attack immediately.
In fact, Zhang Dou's situation was similar to Huang Taiji's estimate, and his troops were already less than 8,000 people.
Since Liu Xingzuo fled to Jinzhou, his calculation of troops was insufficient. After the battle, the casualties reached nearly 4,000.
Such a large casualty was also unexpected, and the battle losses reached more than 20%, and the morale of the Changxing Army and today is already commendable.
Now that Huang Taiji is leading an army of 15,000 to overwhelm the border, he can only choose to defend and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
Fortunately, the cavalry team gave Huang Taiji a blow to the head, which made him have some concerns, otherwise he would have rushed up regardless of it, and he would really be in a hurry.
……
Allen led the sea shark fleet to the south shore of Golden State and blocked all the sea ships in Dongjiang Town in the harbor.
When the twelve Galen ships faced the enemy on the side and opened the gun windows, the sea ships in Dongjiang Town were stunned. Why is Immortal Island against them? What are these people going to do? Aren't they afraid of the blame of the court?
The navy of Dongjiang Town hurriedly asked Jinzhou City for help, and the sea ships in the port also immediately hoisted their sails and anchors, assuming a posture of facing the enemy.
One of the sea calamities was the most aggressive, and they were the first to raise their sails and anchor, and out of their mooring, they approached the Sea Shark battleship. The sailors on the ship were still shouting loudly, and some were waving their swords and shouting incessantly.
When Alan saw this sea cane, he immediately ordered: "Order all ships to aim at the outermost sea cane, and I will sink it." If, after a round of shelling, you can still see that ship on the surface, I will definitely hang you on the mast! ”
At his command, all the Sea Shark warships on the sea were busy. In just a few moments, all the battleships sent flags asking for cannons.
After receiving the flagship's approval, twelve Sea Shark warships fired a salvo at that sea sky.
Twelve battleships, hundreds of shells hit the same target. The poor ship was hit by hundreds of shells in an instant, and the heavy projectiles hit the hull, and the planks of the ship shattered instantly, and the sailors on board were reduced to pieces along with the ship before they could escape.
Seeing the miserable appearance of the boat, the other Dongjiang Zhenhai ships stopped one after another. Don't dare to make any more hostile moves, for fear that you will become the next target.
