Chapter 166: As You Wish (Part II)

The balance of victory and defeat had already tilted towards the Qing army, but the Chu army suddenly arrived, but smashed the opposite side to the end at once.

In order to defeat the loyal battalion as much as possible, he sent all the Baya soldiers at the bottom of the box, and the rear was extremely empty, and the Chu army struck at his weak point with a thunderous blow, which immediately pierced the paper tiger. Xiqi Battalion, Jiangqi Battalion, Gongyi Battalion, Chongyang Battalion, Yuezhou Battalion...... The Chu troops arrived one after another, and although Lekdehun tried his best to resist, the rear army was quickly routed.

Seeing that the Chu army was unstoppable, hundreds of Qing troops escorted Le Ke Dehun and the Chinese army Daxu to retreat, and the Qing army's front army also turned back to rescue, but the loyal battalion took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack and entangled the other party to death.

After joining up with a thousand Baya soldiers, Luck Dehun was determined that each Baya soldier was one as ten, and a thousand people were equal to 10,000 elite soldiers, who could not only protect their own safety, but also launch a counterattack against the enemy.

He took the lead, with a thousand Bayala soldiers back and forth to kill, to rescue those trapped Qing troops, his men and horses rolled more and more, and when more than 2,000 cavalry were gathered, Le Kehun turned his horse's head and led the Qing army straight to Wang Kefan's Gongyi battalion.

Capture the thief and capture the king first!

It can be seen from the banner that the Gongyi battalion is where Wang Kefan's Chinese army is, as long as they rush up and defeat them, they still have a chance to win this battle.

rushed up, but the head broke and bleed.

In order to cope with the dense charge of the cavalry of the Qing army. The Chu military had already made-for-tat preparations, waiting for Bayara's soldiers, which was a three-dimensional crossfire composed of various weapons. At a long distance, hit with artillery first. When the remaining Qing cavalry finally rushed in front of the Chu army, they encountered a desperate spear formation......

The battle continued into the evening, and the Bayala army attacked several times without success, and the other divisions also suffered heavy casualties. Luckedhun finally gave up his efforts, led the remnants of the defeated army to break through the siege, and fled in the direction of Hengyang.

Do you want to run after losing a battle? The Ming army then pursued and killed. There is no organized army. No matter how many people there are, they are just two-legged sheep, and personal bravery is almost useless, and the 30,000 Qing troops were defeated like a mountain, and they were completely defeated under the pursuit of the Ming army. Luckedhun is the target of all Chu troops. With more than 300 Eight Banner soldiers, they were blocked in a forest.

The Eight Banners had excellent bow and arrow accuracy, and there was the cover of the woods, so the soldiers of the Chu army could not attack for a while, so they only surrounded them from afar, and kept shouting and scolding Luck Dehun's name, telling him to come out and surrender.

There was also a guard commander and two Eight Banner generals around Lector, who were now fighting with bows and arrows like ordinary soldiers, and their horses were concentrated in the middle of the woods. Feed some water and food to rest, and then rely on them to kill.

Temporarily out of danger. Lecset looked around the woods, his face gloomy and his look agitated, as if he had been defeated. As a military general, he has fantasized about the heroic scenes of heroic sacrifice many times, but when he really faced the threat of death, he found that he was too unwilling and had a strong desire to survive.

"If you can hold on here until tomorrow morning, I don't know if King Huaishun can come to the rescue......" Luckedhun regretted it very much, he shouldn't have insisted on going his own way, and kept Geng Zhongming's advice, hiding in this leaky grove on all sides at this moment, he missed the thick walls of Hengyang City very much.

"The thieves are gathering more and more, this forest is not a place to stay for a long time, and after dark, Lord Belle will break through immediately!" The commander of the guards said to Luckedhun: "Lord Belle, you and the minions change their clothes, and when it gets dark, the minions will rush to the south, and you will rush to the north and find our sailors by the steaming river......

Since you want to flee for your life, it stands to reason that you should go straight to Hengyang in the south, but the Ming army is also the most closely focused on the south of the woods, and even a fly can't fly over the layers, and even if you desperately break through this encirclement, it is impossible to penetrate into Hengyang from the middle of tens of thousands of Ming troops, and the north of the woods is the farthest away from Hengyang, so the Ming army is relatively the least. Escaping to the river may encounter the sailor's warship, which is the only chance to escape at the moment.

"Good minion, even if Ben Belle can't escape today, he will let Qizhong treat your family well, and everyone present is a witness." Although it was a matter of course for the slave to give his master's life, Luck Dehun patted the guard commander on the shoulder and encouraged the imposter to die with confidence.

"Thank you, Lord Belle, for your grace." The commander of the guards was very moved, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "It's not dark yet, so we have to wait a little longer......"

As soon as he was halfway through speaking, he heard a swishing sound outside the woods, and the sound of arrows breaking through the air was extremely strange, and the commander of the guards looked back and blurted out, "Rocket!" ”

Countless rockets shot into the woods, igniting the thick dead leaves on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the smoke was billowing out, the flames were blazing, there was no way to hide here, and the trick of changing the tanuki for the prince was too late to be staged, Luck Dehun turned over and jumped on the neighing war horse, and pointed his knife at the guard commander: "You go south, I go north, break through separately!" ”

The commander of the guard rushed out of the woods with a hundred Eight Banners soldiers and fought with the Chu army, and Luckedhun sent two more suspicious soldiers to the east and west to see that the time was almost right, and rushed out of the woods with the remaining more than a hundred Eight Banners soldiers to the north.

The Ming army on the north side of the forest is not too much, there are only about five hundred people in the front, lined up in a horizontal line of three layers in front and back to block the way, a trace of doubt flashed in Lekdehun's eyes, in front of the cavalry rushing forward, the formation of the Ming army seems to be very thin, and it seems to break through as soon as it rushes.

Is there any trick that doesn't work...... The Ming troops on both sides were encircling the middle, and Luck De didn't think much about it, raised his tiger tooth knife and shouted: "Die in battle, I do what I want!" ”

One hundred Eight Banner soldiers shouted in unison: "Die in battle, do what I want!" ”

The sound shook the wilderness, generous and tragic, and Lucketthun urged the war horse and rushed towards the opposite side without hesitation......

"Ready!"

Five hundred flintlock muskets were flattened together, pointing at the Qing cavalry on the opposite side, the musketeers had just arrived here, there was no time to cut down trees, set up barricades, and in the face of high-speed charging cavalry, the flintlock pistols could only shoot at most one shot, and the three-stage shooting was meaningless.

"Aim!"

Wang Kebin did not hesitate to aim at the Qing army officer, looking at his gorgeous armor, he was definitely not an ordinary general, it was probably Luckedhun himself. There are many others who think the same as him, Wu Laobing, Da Gu Niu, Zhu Huaqi...... Of the five hundred flintlock muskets, almost two hundred were aimed at Luckedhun.

The cavalry of the Qing army was getting closer and closer, and the officer commanding the battle stood there quietly like a stone, but he kept estimating the distance in his heart, since he could only shoot one shot, of course, he had to put the enemy closer before fighting, and it was better to fire with a gun against their nose.

One hundred steps.

Sixty steps.

Forty steps.

Thirty steps......

The distance with the Chu army is getting closer and closer, and the Qing army can also see the muzzle of the black hole in their hands clearly, and under the leadership of Luck Dehun, they shouted again: "Die in battle, I do what I want!" ”

"Fire!"

The gunfire sounded like a popping bean in an instant, Wang Kebin calmly pulled the trigger, and secretly replied in his heart: "As you wish!" ”

A large cloud of smoke rose in front of the Chu soldiers, and Luckedhun's body immediately jumped backwards, and countless lead bullets hit his body, smashing him off the horse's back alive, if it weren't for the fact that his feet were still clasped in the stirrups, he would almost fly out upside down.

When he fell again, Lec's body happened to sit in the saddle, and he did not fall off the horse, but the wound had already gushed out streams of blood, and half of his face was beaten to shreds, and at the moment of being shot, he was already dead.

"Get on the bayonet!"

Under the salvo of 500 flintlock muskets, the Qing army was heavily wounded and dizzy, but the remaining 20 or so Eight Banner soldiers continued to rush over by inertia, and the Chu soldiers put their bayonets into the barrels of their guns together to meet the remnants of the Eight Banners.

Luckedhun's mount ran away into the spur, the corpse swayed on the horse's back, and finally fell headlong, but the soldiers of the Ming and Qing armies were fighting to the death, and no one looked at him again......

After the war, the whereabouts of Luck Dehun were searched, and the captured Qing soldiers all confessed that he died in the north of the woods, and the matter was very important, Wang Kefan personally brought the captives to check, and the commander of the guards fell to the ground when he saw Le Ke Dehun's body, and cried bitterly: "Lord Belle, why did you go first!" ”

He called a few captives to identify it, and determined that the body was Lekdehun, and seeing that the old opponent who had been entangled for several years was finally killed, Wang Kefan also felt a little emotional, and ordered his subordinates: "Bury him, dig a deeper pit and be a little more decent......"

Zhang Kuang stopped him: "The battle of Hengyang, the government and the opposition are all watching, and the enemy chief is the head, so he should be dedicated to the front of Que, so as to shock the world, and the guests can be subdued, how can they be so hasty?" ”

Wang Kefan nodded and said with a smile: "It's me who didn't think about it, thank you for the teacher's reminder." ”

It was easy to cut off Luck Dehun's head, and of course he had to send it to Guilin, which could not only support Emperor Longwu, but also improve the prestige of the Chu Xun group, and also provide a strong support for Fu Guan in the imperial court.

"Most of the soldiers of the Eight Banners are desperately resistant, unwilling to be prisoners, and there should be thousands of heads cut off in this battle, all of which are pickled in lime together and sent to Guilin."

If you don't do it, since you want to do it, you can do a big one, the heads of thousands of eight banner soldiers formed a huge Beijing view in front of the gate of Guilin, think about it and feel very spectacular, Wang Kefan waved his hand, and ordered people to collect the golden helmets and armor of Luck Dehun, war horses and swords, and prepare to send them to Emperor Longwu together.

The order was conveyed, several Chu generals did not hesitate to carry it out, although all the stubborn Eight Banners soldiers were killed, even those who were injured were almost not alive, after the battle, more than 4,000 heads were cut off, and only more than 20 prisoners remained, ready to be sent to Guilin Que to sacrifice prisoners.
