"Kill!"

The Qing general roared, like a thunderbolt in mid-air, and the war horse was a little faster, with lightning and fire, and steel knives like snow, seeing that the general of the Ming army had no way to hide.

Suddenly, the general of the Ming army was short and disappeared.

The Qing general Huya knife was empty, and he knew that it was not good, and before he could figure out what was going on, the war horse under his crotch screamed, and fell forward like a derailed train, slamming him to the ground, and the general of the Ming army suddenly came out again, raised the knife in his hand, and cut off his head with a knife.

"Kill!"

Ye Ruri roared, like a thunderbolt in mid-air, and his body suddenly fell to the snow, his left hand was protected by a round shield, and his right hand was single-handedly slashed at the horse's legs, playing the ancestral thirty-six style Ye Jiadi lying knife.

Behind him, the soldiers of the Chu army leaned down together, or lying down or lying on their stomachs, or shrunk into a ball, and the number of paths of a single knife was exactly the same as that of Ye Ruri, specifically cutting the lower three roads of the Qing cavalry, and cutting the legs of horses and two human legs by the way.

The cavalry of the Qing army had never seen such a strange method of warfare, and the slain turned on his horse.

Among the battalions of the Chu army, the Dongguan battalion is a special existence, most of the officers and soldiers in the battalion were born in Guangdong volunteers, and Ye Ruri and other officers were originally heroes who dominated the party. The martial arts style prevails in Guangdong, and most of Ye Ruri's subordinates are his disciples and grandchildren, if you want to talk about the ability of spears and halberds and bow and horse battle arrays, they can only be regarded as average, but they are the best at small kung fu with close shorts.

In later generations, there was a saying that the southern fist and the northern leg said that Ye Ruri's subordinates were all practitioners of hard bridges and hard horses, and they usually practiced boxing. There is already the prototype of Wing Chun in later generations, and the Ye Jiadi lying knife with a small round shield is a secret weapon specially designed to restrain cavalry. I went into battle for the first time today, and I really made a great achievement!

Since it is a secret weapon, it must have the best effect when it is used for the first time, and five hundred shield bearers of the Chu army killed two hundred Qing cavalry by surprise, and saw that the main general was killed, and the Qing cavalry had no intention of fighting. Fleeing in all directions.

In the ranks of the Qing army, there was also a guide of the Chu army who surrendered - Lin Zhong.

Seeing that there was a great chaos around him, the two Qing soldiers guarding him were also gone. However, the shield hand of the Chu army in front was killing up, and if he rushed forward, he would definitely be hacked to death with a knife, Lin Zhong turned his horse's head. Rushed towards Zhang Jiayu's brigade in the rear. Those who were far away jumped off their horses and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Behind him, Ye Ruri ran around and shouted at the soldiers under him: "Stop! Stop it! You bunch of losers! The Tartars have been defeated, stop chopping off the horses' feet and leave a few more horses! ”

Many soldiers in the Dongguan battalion fought against the Eight Banners cavalry for the first time, and they won an unexpected victory, and even they themselves couldn't believe it. The nerves were still in high spirits, and the hands were up and down. The knife fell, and the horse's legs were cut in two, until Ye Ruri stopped in front of him, and finally stopped, staring blankly at the blood-stained battlefield on the ground, and after a long time, suddenly jumped and screamed together, cheering loudly.

On their periphery, the fighting continues, but has turned from a fierce confrontation to a one-sided hunt.

There were more than 100 cavalry of the Eight Banners who fled, but they were intercepted by the infantry and cavalry of the Chu army, like a balloon that had been deflated, while dazed and rammed around, while quickly losing weight and getting smaller, and was constantly killed by the Ming army, and finally only twenty or thirty Qing troops escaped by chance.

"No need to chase, clean up the battlefield as much as possible, and then rush to Huangshagang."

Zhang Jiayu ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, since the Qing army had broken through the encirclement, if it was purely a horsemanship, Zhang Jiazhen's cavalry team would definitely not be able to catch up with them, and they might not be able to take advantage of it.

The Dongguan battalion cleaned up the battlefield, and in addition to armor and weapons, the biggest gain was more than 80 war horses, as well as hundreds of dead and wounded horses. Just in time for the heavy snowy weather, the horse meat will not rot lightly, and it was taken away by the Chu army to replenish the military rations, and the cut horse legs were neatly bundled like firewood stacks, stuffed with a big cart.

In this battle, three or four captured wounded soldiers were also captured, and Zhang Jiayu personally interrogated them, all of them were ordinary soldiers, and there was not much valuable information, so after a few simple questions, Zhang Jiayu waved his hand and ordered them all to be executed.

"General Zhang, General Zhang, I'm from the Chu Army!" Lin Zhong shouted loudly, and when he saw Zhang Jiayu stop, he hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "The last general's name is Lin Zhong, and he is the general manager of the Yuezhou Battalion, Shangguan Lin Yonggang. ”

"Since you are from the Chu army, how can you be with Tartar?" Zhang Jiayu asked sternly.

"The last general was ordered to cover the army, but he was surrounded by Tartars, and he couldn't get away from the battle...... Lin Zhong told him how he was injured and captured, and the front was basically in line with the facts, but in the second half, he avoided the important and trivialized, concealed the greed for life and fear of death, and surrendered to the Qing army as the leading party.

Seeing that his answer was tight, Zhang Jiayu nodded, and ordered someone to take Lin Zhong down to accompany the army, and at the same time strictly guarded it, the Dongguan battalion was about to go to Huangshagang, whether it was true or not, and he would know when he saw Lin Yonggang and asked.

It was difficult to march on a snowy day, and in the evening, the Dongguan battalion finally arrived near Huangshagang, but fortunately they came from the small road and did not alarm the Qing army in Huangshagang. There were still more than ten miles away from the town, Zhang Jiayu sent someone to contact Lin Yonggang, and at the same time ordered the troops to stop advancing and rest in the snow.

In order to avoid exposing his whereabouts and not being able to make a fire to cook, Zhang Jiayu, like ordinary officers and soldiers, ate some cold dry food, and when he was thirsty, he took two handfuls of snow and stuffed it into his mouth, even if the dinner problem was solved.

After about two hours, Lin Yonggang finally came.

"The last general is incompetent and lost Huangshagang, fortunately, General Zhang came to preside over the overall situation, and this time he will definitely be able to defeat the Tartars and avenge the dead son!" As soon as Lin Yonggang met, he happily handed over the command, when the two troops fought together, there was always a question of who would command, according to the practice of the Chu army, usually headed by the party with a high rank, Zhang Jiayu naturally became the temporary commander of this joint force.

"I'm a newcomer, the enemy situation is unknown, if there is anything I can't do, I ask General Lin for more guidance." Zhang Jiayu is also very polite to the brother troops, the Yuezhou battalion is the main force of the Chu army, Lin Yonggang is also Tan Xiao's favorite general, although Zhang Jiayu is the camp officer of the Dongguan battalion, he did not put any shelf.

Zhang Jiayu, Lin Yonggang, Ye Ruri and others looked at the map to discuss how to fight the battle of Huangshagang, and finally determined a battle plan to launch a surprise attack on the town at dawn tomorrow, and eliminate the Qing army in the town.

"As long as Huangshagang is recaptured, the back road of the Eight Banners will be cut off, and we will have to tie our pockets tightly this time and eat them completely!" When it comes to Tun Bu'er and other Eight Banner generals, Lin Yonggang's teeth itch with hatred, since the Gongyi battalion moved to Jiangxi, the Yuezhou battalion has been in and out of Jiangxi several times, and it is rare to suffer such a big loss, and this group of Qing troops must be wiped out in order to get out of this evil breath.

Zhang Jiayu nodded with a smile, and said, "By the way, I also brought someone who said that he was your old acquaintance." ”

Lin Yonggang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Old acquaintance?" Who is it? ”

It didn't take long for Lin Zhong to be brought up.

As soon as Lin Yonggang saw him, his eyes lit up with joy, and he shouted, "You kid! Still alive?! ”

"Young Master!" Lin Zhong fell to his knees with a thud, sobbing non-stop.

"How? Crying like a, that's not your nature! Lin Yonggang helped him up and looked up and down: "Aren't you complete, don't you lack anything?" It's good to come back, kill a few more Tartars in the future and avenge your brothers! ”

Lin Yonggang trusted Lin Zhong extremely and did not ask him about his experience in the past two days. What is there to ask? It must be nine deaths and one life, and it was so easy to escape with one life, who wants to say that Lin Zhong will surrender to the Qing army, Lin Yonggang is the first to turn his face with him.

"Mr. Lin Qian, let's meet for the first time today, I don't know the details, it's really lazy." Zhang Jiayu also said a few polite words, since Lin Zhong is from the Yuezhou camp, after handing him over to Lin Yonggang, there is no need to worry about other things.

Lin Yonggang said again: "You must have suffered a lot in the past two days, tomorrow to attack Huangshagang, take a rest first." ”

Lin Zhong shook his head like a rattle: "No, tomorrow I must go into battle and kill all the dog tartars!" ”

……

The accidental loss of more than 200 Eight Banner soldiers made Tun Buer very annoyed.

The Eight Banners cavalry were the best at running back and forth, and in order to increase the speed of the march, they did not have a baggage force, and each soldier carried his own grain and forage, which was generally only enough for three days. However, when the war started, the battle might not be over within three days, and the Eight Banners relied on looting and looting to replenish supplies.

After Tunbul occupied Huangshagang, he didn't care about entanglement with Lin Yonggang, who retreated to Hualin Mountain, leaving part of the Qing army to hold the town, leading the main force to join the other Qing troops, and kill Tan Xiao's Ganjiang camp together. Tan Xiao's strength is very strong, I don't know how many days this battle will take, Tun Bu'er scattered the three thousand men and horses, divided them into more than ten small troops, and collected food while marching, so that the dry food bags and forage bags of the Eight Banners soldiers were full.

Unexpectedly, one of the small units ran into the Dongguan battalion and was eaten in one bite.

After receiving the news, Tun Buer immediately sent scouts to investigate, and found that the Dongguan battalion had left, and the rut marks were going to Huangshagang.

Coupled with the follow-up troops that arrived in the past two days, Huangshagang only had a thousand Qing troops, which may not be able to block the attack of the Dongguan battalion.

Tun Bu'er scolded them.

Tan Xiao is the most important target, as long as his Yuezhou battalion is eliminated, it is like a sharp arrow that has broken off an arrow, and the offensive of the Chu army is no longer threatening, if it turns around and rushes back to Huangshagang at this time, Lin Guangyuan and Li Chengdong may not be able to withstand it for long.

On the one hand, he sent people to send an alarm to Huangshagang, and on the other hand, he ordered the troops to speed up the march, and the momentum was violent, and they killed Tan Xiao's Ganjiang camp. (To be continued......)
