The Eight Banners fought all the way from outside the pass to the inside of the pass, and the momentum has always been in absolute upper hand, and the Ming army that they encountered never dared to come out to fight, and they all hid in the fortified city to defend, even the Chu army, which was known as the most warlike.

However, the Yangshuo soldiers rushed out of the fortifications where they were hiding, took the initiative to fight hand-to-hand with the Eight Banners, and immediately caught them off guard.

Seeing the reinforcements coming, most of the Yangshuo soldiers on the slope of the mountain regained their courage, although there were still some routs fleeing, more soldiers stood still, followed by a loud shout, and re-entered the battle, Bai Gui and Zhao Xing, who were encircled, were even more desperate, and under the outbreak of all their strength, they actually killed the Eight Banners soldiers and retreated step by step.

At the bottom of the hill, Gurmahun looked dull and looked expressionless and calm, but the fingers in his sleeves were trembling slightly.

"Why is this happening? Don't...... Am I scared? ”

Compared with the ancestors of Shuerhaqi and Amin, Gurmahun, who does not seek merit but seeks no fault, is undoubtedly an unworthy descendant, but he also grew up in the saddle, and he has been in the army as a young man, and has seen countless big scenes, compared with Li Zicheng in the stone battle of the year, the battle on this small hillside is just a small fight that is not worth mentioning, even if Wang Kefan suddenly leads the main force of the Chu army to kill from behind at this time, he can also calmly face the battle, and there will be no fear...... But at this moment, seeing the generals of the Ming army and the ordinary soldiers rushing forward together, seeing the Prince of the Ming Dynasty and the auxiliary soldiers carrying the stones together, and hearing the deafening shout, the mountains seemed to be all together to let out an angry roar, but it made Gurmahun feel a fear that he had never felt before.

Unity is strength!

What he is afraid of is this momentum of unity!

When he entered the customs, an elder with a blue flag once said. The Han Chinese are a hundred times more numerous than the Manchus, if they all rise up and resist desperately. The Manchurians will definitely not be able to occupy these thousands of miles, and sooner or later they will have to retreat outside the border...... In the Manchu upper echelons. In fact, there are many people who hold this view, so Liaodong is regarded as the backyard of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Han people are strictly forbidden to immigrate and settle there, just in case they cannot gain a foothold in the Guannai, they can retreat to Liaodong.

But Gurmahun soon discovered that the Han people could only fight in the nest, and there were countless "smart people" who were good at seeing the wind and steering, as long as they threw them two bones, they would happily become slaves. On the other hand, to slaughter those Han people who are still resisting, the ruthlessness is even worse than that of the Qing army...... In the past few years, in the southern and northern wars, there were also Ming troops who were unwilling to surrender and resisted desperately, but they were all desperate counterattacks of trapped beasts. The total number of Manchurians, who are less than a million, will soon be exhausted.

For thousands of years, civilization has certainly progressed, but barbarism and brutality can often run rampant, and the more barbaric and brutal the Manchu Qing is. The greater the fear in their hearts, the more they were enemies of the Han people, and they had no choice but to cover up their inner fear in a more barbaric and brutal way. When the Han people united and rose up to resist, the cowardly Ming soldiers became brave warriors. Their self-confidence will crumble.

Gurmahun originally thought that the Han people were all pigs and dogs to be slaughtered, and the Ming army in the south was even more unbearable. Today, I will definitely be able to capture Xianzi Mountain, but at this moment, I suddenly lost confidence......

Hearing that Tang King Zhu Yulu appeared, He Luohui was slightly taken aback, and then became very excited.

It was inconvenient for the scouts to find out the news in the mountainous areas, and the Chu army had a strong sense of secrecy and spared no effort to counter espionage and traitors, so that the information obtained by the Qing army was chaotic and lacked clues, and even contradicted each other, and most of them could not be used as the basis for making decisions...... The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can win a hundred battles, He Luohui does not know the reality of the Chu army, and although the strength is superior, he has never dared to launch a general attack.

Zhu Yulu suddenly came to Bazhangdong Mountain, combined with some other information, it can basically be concluded that the main force of the Chu army has gathered in the area of Bazhangdong, intending to fight a decisive battle with the Qing army, He Luohui even boldly and rationally speculated that Wang Kefan, who had lost his whereabouts, was probably lurking nearby and was secretly commanding various units of the Chu army.

"Wang Kefan changed the soup instead of the medicine, he still used the strategy of trapping Mu Lima that day, but he added the bait of Zhu Yulu to confuse people's ears and eyes." He Luo would sneer: "Hmph! Zhu Yugui is the pseudo-Ming Tang King, and he has always been pampered, but now he is in danger lightly, and he goes into battle and waving the flag and shouting in the same column with the puppet pawns, which is obviously a show! ”

"Eighty percent of them look like this." Tun Qi agreed: "Since I entered the customs of the Qing Dynasty, most of the places I went to spread down, Chongzhen died by hanging, Zhu Yousong (Hongguang Emperor) was dedicated by the general Tian Xiong, Zhu Yujian fled to Guilin, Zhu Changshu (King Lu) is his own city to return to Shun, and there are few other Ming princes, Wang Kefan used Zhu Yulu as bait, the capital under is really not small, but this is just a small trick, ignore him and can't blame. ”

The generals nodded yes one after another, He Luohui smiled faintly, pointed to the map and continued to analyze: "Wang Kefan used Zhu Yulu as bait, just to lure Gurmahun into the lone army, and then he led the army to suddenly kill, or cut off Gurmahun's retreat, or outflank the grain route of our army, in short, everything remains the same, and it is similar to the original method of dealing with Jumala and Mulima...... Although there is a saying in the art of war that 'soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent', but that is a once-in-a-lifetime peerless achievement that can only be achieved by peerless generals, and most of the generals' methods of using troops are still traceable, such as my famous generals He Heli, Fei Yingdong, An Feiyangu and others, each has its own strengths, even Taizong and Taizu are also ......."

He had just said halfway through, Tun Qi and the others' faces changed color, and they all spoke to stop him, He Luohui realized that he was almost speechless, and hurriedly stopped talking, you must know that evaluating Nurhachi and Huang Taiji in public, even if you say good things, it is disrespectful, not only the person he said is guilty, but the person who listens is also difficult to get rid of.

Although he only said half of it, the meaning he wanted to express was clearly expressed, Nurhachi, who was regarded as the god of war by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, also had distinct tactical characteristics, and the young Wang Kefan could not do "the impermanence of soldiers and the impermanence of water". Yes, Wang Kefan is indeed very capable of fighting, and the Manchu generals have now admitted this and have regarded him as one of the most important opponents. But he must have traces to follow in fighting with soldiers, and he has his own habits and thinking. Subconsciously repeat the experience of previous success.

Cutting off the grain channel is a trick he likes to use.

Encirclement and reinforcements. It's another trick he likes to use.

Seizing the main points and replacing offense with a solid defense, so as to form an anti-guest dominance, is a tactic he has adopted many times in many battles and victories.

In short, it is only by using interspersed mobilization, division and encirclement, and the formation of superior forces in the local area that we can defeat the powerful Qing army again and again.

After thoroughly analyzing Wang Kefan's past combat examples, his current tactical intentions are clear.

Obviously, seize the slap cave mountain. cut off the grain route of the army of Jierharang, lured the lone army of Gurmahun to go deeper, in order to encircle the point to send reinforcements, as for seizing the key points, anti-guest, such examples abound in the Battle of Ningzhen, the offensive ability of the Chu army may not be stronger than the Qing army, but the terrain in the mountainous area of Ningzhen was used to the extreme, and the defense caused huge trouble to the Qing army. In addition to using Zhu Yulu as a bait, his tactical tactics are still old-fashioned.

"The grain route of our army has been cut off, and the town of Yanling has been trapped for a long time, so a quick battle is most beneficial to our army. I'm not afraid that Wang Kefan will use tricks, I'm afraid that he has been shrinking back as a turtle, according to the scout. The most elite Gongyi battalion under Wang Kefan is nowhere to be found, and it is likely to be lurking near Bazhangdong Mountain. Let's take a look, if our army launches a general offensive. Where will he choose to attack from......"

He Luo will point to the map, one by one nameless heights next to each other, whether Wang Kefan will fight them or Tan Tai, both of these possibilities must be taken into account, he and the generals repeatedly discussed, and formulated a thorough battle plan, simply put, it is a unified action, an iron wall, and Wang Kefan can not take advantage of the opportunity.

He Luohui finally said: "Ben will send someone to contact Tan Tai, two soldiers and horses launched at the same time, one south and one north, two sides of the attack, before that, Gur Ma Hun may as well plan to capture Xianzi Mountain tomorrow night, give Wang Kefan a little hope, in addition to asking Prince Zheng to help, send more arrows, shells and grain and baggage, and then transfer a soldier and horse as a backup to replace the wounded soldiers of our army......"

This plan has been unanimously affirmed by everyone, the Qing army generals are all gearing up, eager to try, only Gurma Hun slightly embarrassed said: "Our troops and horses have just suffered a small setback, the spirit has been lost, if we can't capture Xianzi Mountain tomorrow, I'm afraid to drag down the whole battle." ”

Tun Qi and he are cousins, the two have always been good friends, and they smiled and persuaded at the moment: "Don't worry too much about the third child, since Wang Kefan wants to use tricks to earn you, of course he will not keep guarding the virtuous word mountain, and he will be able to fight the thief tomorrow, if you don't believe us make a bet, just wait and see tomorrow." ”

He Luohui also nodded, and cheered up Gurmahun: "Although Beizi lets go to fight, if the attack on Xianzi Mountain is frustrated again, it means that Wang Kefan has other plans, but it will give us a wake-up call, and no one will blame you." However, in my opinion, this possibility is probably very small, remember, after you capture Xianzi Mountain, as long as you hold your troops, Wang Kefan's various conspiracies and tricks will not be able to be used......"

On the morning of the next day, Gurmahun launched another attack on Xianzi Mountain.

At this time, the Yangshuo soldiers were in the exhaustion period after the outbreak, and in the face of the Qing army's attack, they only resisted slightly, and they were defeated in an uproar.

In line with the steady principle of poor Kou Mo chasing, Gur Ma Hun chased and killed for a while and then collected the troops back to the mountain, checked the results of the battle, and found that the harvest was quite rich, before and after the vicious battle of the past few days, more than half of the Yangshuo soldiers were killed and wounded, basically they had been disabled, the Qing army not only captured a batch of weapons and ammunition that was too late to take away, but also a set of armor thrown by Zhu Yulu, the king of the Tang Dynasty, several flags, and half a guard of honor.

He Luohui scoffed after receiving the report, Wang Kefan's hand is really not clever, and he wants to lure the Qing army into chasing after him when he drops a set of armor worn by Zhu Yulu, is it really their Ming princes who are all treasures?

……

After Jiao Lian withdrew from the 312 Heights, he received an order from Wang Sheng to lead his headquarters to retreat to a place thirty miles southwest of the country, and rest on the spot.

After receiving this order, Jiao Lian and several of his generals were very surprised, the transportation in the mountains is inconvenient, thirty miles is a long distance, and they have basically withdrawn from the 177 Highland Combat Zone, is it that they see that the Yangshuo soldiers are disabled and are not ready to use it again?

Wang Sheng's move may be well-intentioned, but Jiao Lian doesn't want to lead it, Tang Miaozi and other generals are even more indignant, the battle has come to this point, and the Yangshuo soldiers have paid such a big price, and it seems that it is the final decisive moment, what is the matter with retreating to the second line now? It's too unkind to have all the dirty work ahead, and when it's time to pick the fruit at the end, they send us aside!

Jiao Lian's face sank, scolded them, and ordered the troops to carry out the order first and march to the southwest, but he rushed to Wang Sheng's headquarters and appealed to him for battle.

That night, Jiao Lian came happily, and there was no more dissatisfaction, Tang Miaozi and others asked, but he didn't leak a word at all.

Zhu Yulu also withdrew with the Yangshuo soldiers.

Qin Cha lost the guard of honor, which was a big sin, but Zhu Yulu didn't care, ignoring Ma Jixiang and others along the way, but soaking with those ordinary soldiers.

After withdrawing from the 312 Heights, he spent the whole day in the military infirmary, chatting with the wounded soldiers, and when he camped at night, he went to the camp of the seriously wounded to visit the wounded soldiers who had just undergone amputation.

Inadvertently, he met a familiar soldier here, named Sun Mantang, who had carried ammunition side by side with Zhu Yulu on the 312 Heights, and fought Gur Ma Hun that night, the two of them had a good conversation, but Sun Mantang was seriously injured in the last day of the battle and had one of his legs amputated...... Looking at his broken leg injury, Zhu Yulu felt uncomfortable in his heart, and his eyes were shining.

He originally thought that these ordinary soldiers were brainless fools, and many of them were misbehaved, vulgar and hateful, completely ignorant of etiquette, righteousness and shame, and had to come to serve as soldiers, all they wanted to eat...... Tong Guò came into contact with him these days to know that many soldiers were originally honest and duty-bound people, with their own concepts of good and evil and moral character, and their own wishes and ideals......

That night, he chatted with Sun Mantang for a long time.

The next morning, he went to look for Sun Mantang again, but heard that he was dead.

The bodies of the dead soldiers were to be sent to the centralized place for burial, so that the family could find and collect the corpses, and Zhu Yulu sat on the corpse transport vehicle and sent Sun Mantang far away, silent along the way. (To be continued......)
