Chapter 50: The Battle of Mingmengjin (7)

Huang Taiji frowned and thought for a while: "Send heavy infantry and cavalry to slowly advance inward, only attack one side, and send a large army in the middle of the road to prevent the enemy on the other side from supporting." Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Soon Huang Taiji's order was executed, the heavy infantry raised their shields, while demining, while pushing inward, while the cavalry followed the infantry and slowly advanced, so although some people were bombed, but the loss was very small, there were bows and arrows to shoot, and the infantry's shields were very effective in defense, so the original Lin Dan Khan's army used the method of sneak attack The results gradually decreased, and finally it was inevitable that there would be a hard battle between the two sides, Lin Dan Khan's army still had an advantage, one was to fight more and less, and the other was to fight on an empty stomach after the Jin and Mongol coalition forces; Thirdly, Lin Dan Khan's army was better equipped than the combined forces of the Later Jin and Mongols, and there were fewer casualties; Fourth, Lin Dan Khan's army can reap a lot of fruits at one time by throwing grenades from time to time, and the seriously injured Lin Dan Khan's warriors directly pull the grenades, and they can pull a lot of cushions at a time, and the forest suddenly became a Shura hell. Huang Taiji listened to the report outside, and sent reinforcements in from time to time, and finally the battle lasted for two hours, and Huang Taiji listened to the casualty report and directly issued the order to withdraw the army. And Lin Dan Khan's cavalry did not pursue, after all, there was still a large army outside.

In the first confrontation, Huang Taiji thought that he had invested 50,000 people before and after, and suffered 30,000 casualties, which was much larger than the expected casualties, and it was worth his comfort that the Mongols accounted for the majority of the casualties, and on the other hand, Lin Dan Khan invested 70,000 people, and the casualties were less than 20,000.

They returned to the army, Huang Taiji was calm, after all, today can be said to have failed the first battle, and asked others if they had a good strategy to kill the enemy, but no one could put forward an effective strategy, but the camp fell silent, Huang Taiji was helpless, and retreated from everyone, and he thought about it.

On the other hand, after listening to the report, Lin Dan Khan said: "Wang Jingluo, with such a casualty rate, Ben Khan can't afford to lose, when will your reinforcements arrive?" After all, you're better at it! “

Wang Zaijin said: "Great Khan! Our reinforcements have arrived, and they have not yet shown up for the time being, I believe they are going to surprise the enemy! Khan in no hurry? “

"Oh? Surprise? Lin Danhan raised his eyebrows, and the depressed mood disappeared immediately.

"But Wang Jingluo, is there any other good way for Ben Khan to reduce some losses!" Lin Dan Khan said.

"For the time being, we can only consume it first, and it will be easy to do it after our army's Beijing camp arrives!" Wang Zaijin was also a little helpless, the conditions were limited, otherwise he would have other methods.

So in the next few days, the two sides were so consumed, and the number of casualties was also rising, but the Houjin and Mongolian coalition forces couldn't hold it at first, because those Mongols found that their people died too quickly, and the number of Mongols who attacked each time was more than Houjin, so they began to make contradictions, saying that they couldn't fight like this, and if they continued to fight like this, their own people would die, and Huang Taiji was helpless, so he could only suspend the attack first, but the results were still there, and the casualties of Lin Dan Khan's army in the past few days had already been more than half, Of course, the number of casualties on the allied side still exceeds that of Lin Dan Khan, and the most surprising thing for Huang Taiji is that he found that the other party has not used grenades in today's war, so it means that Lin Dan Khan's army has run out of grenades, and the casualties will be reduced a lot or even less than the other party in the next few days. This was the best takeaway in a few days.

And when the war was in full swing here, Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan's team entered Mongolia smoothly, and bypassed the Houjin and Mongolian garrison Sila Murong Sumu in the dark, and soon they found the other party's grain transport team, the huge escort team held grain, horse feed, and drove cattle and sheep like a long dragon slowly forward, Houjin and Mongolia in order to protect the grain transport team, or each sent 20,000 elite escorts, Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan After the two discussed, they found a terrain in front, With the help of the shelter of the small hill, all the artillery was well covered, and the infantry team quickly picked up the guys and began to fight and lay mines in front of the grain transport team and the artillery position for 5 miles, Yuan Chonghuan and Lu Xiangsheng each took the binoculars, found a good place, and watched the slow passage of the grain transport team in the distance.

In the middle of the grain transport procession, the leader of the Karaqin Mongols said to Amin: "Lord Belle, why are you so careful? Could it be that Lin Dan Khan will send an army to attack us? Ha ha! ”

This team protecting the grain is none other than the banner owner Amin of the blue flag and the Karaqin Mongolian tribe!

Amin participated in several battles and made great achievements, so he always maintained a vigilance for the war, and the safe walk did not make him relax his vigilance, when he entered the area where Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan were ambushed, he looked at the terrain on both sides, frowned, and ordered the team to stop advancing, and then said to the leader of the Karaqin Mongols: "We will each send people to go up to the mound to check, and there is no problem to move forward!" ”

Big Belle, it's good for you to send someone to check it, and mine doesn't have to, how can there be an ambush? Don't joke anymore, Amin didn't say anything and sent someone to the mound on one side, and soon came back to report that everything was normal, and Amin was about to send him to the other side to check, but was stopped by the leader of the Karaqin Mongols.

"Say it, Lord Belle! It's okay! Don't delay, the army ahead is waiting for our rations! Lin Dan Khan's army is being reasonably surrounded by us, where did the army come from to attack us? They don't have enough main forces, can they still divide their troops? “

Amin thought about it, maybe he was too careful, so he ordered the team to continue forward, and just as the army was about to pass through this area, suddenly an explosion sounded in front of him, and the leading few cavalry went to Hell to report without knowing it! There is an enemy attack! There was a shout in front, and with the roar of this sound, behind these small mounds also sounded a familiar voice to Amin - the sound of artillery, it seems that there are a lot of sounds, he estimated that there are at least thirty or more, and then, the sound of explosions was remembered everywhere in the grain transport team, and suddenly people turned on their backs, screaming in all directions, Amin pulled out his knife and said viciously to the leader of the Karaqin Mongols: "Damn! Fast! Rush over the mound with me and kill the sneak attackers! “

The leader of the Karaqin Mongols didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and said in a daze: "When did Lin Dan Khan's army have artillery?" “

Amin was furious, slapped him in the mouth and said, "That's the Ming army!" Why are you still stunned! Hurry up! “

The leader of the Karaqin Mongols woke up with a pump, although he wanted to scold Amin for shaving his ears, but now was not the time for infighting, so he hurriedly called the army, and the two quickly rushed towards the mound with 20,000 people, and soon passed the small mound, and sure enough, they saw dozens of tiger squatting cannons roaring to their heart's content, and behind the artillery, there were neatly arranged Ming troops.

"Kill!" Amin shouted! Soon the army launched a charge and then the Jin army did not know whether it was intentional or unintentional, slowed down, so that the cavalry of the Karaqin Mongols gradually surpassed themselves and became the vanguard, and the opposite Franc machine suddenly roared, followed by countless rockets, and suddenly the sound of explosions drowned out the shouts of the Houjin and Mongolian cavalry, and the Ming army team was methodically firing firearms, artillery, rockets, followed by muskets, there was no gap, and the formation of the Houjin and Mongolian cavalry was shot into a hornet's nest, However, along with these firearms and the mines under their feet, before they could get close to the Ming army, the Houjin and Mongol cavalry were wiped out by more than half of the army by these firearms, and with the sound of explosions along the way, even if they dispersed, they could not be avoided, and this section of the road became a death zone.

Amin and the leader of the Karaqin Mongols were also wounded, and the leader of the Karaqin Mongols said to Amin: "Lord Belle! Evacuate! Or we're going to die! “

Amin looked at the other side, and through the thick smoke, he seemed to see some familiar figures, and he couldn't help but shout: "Guan Ning Iron Rider!" ”

"What!" The leaders of the Karaqin Mongols were also shocked.

"Withdraw!" Amin thought that there should not be many people on the other side, there are still 20,000 troops in his team, and they can still fight when the time comes, these firearms are inconvenient to carry, and when the time comes, our Dajin warriors and Mongolian cavalry can definitely win the Guanning Iron Cavalry!

Seeing the action on the opposite side, Lu Xiangsheng immediately asked people to put all the artillery and firearms back on the war horses, and after the Houjin and Mongolian cavalry escaped from the mound, they immediately pursued the past, and Amin and the leader of the Karaqin Mongols returned to the team and quickly pulled up the rest of the people, but when they saw the swarthy muzzle on the hill facing them, they suddenly had a cold heart, and when they saw the war horse in front of the artillery and firearms, they knew, Unexpectedly, now the firearms of the Ming army have been improved to use war horses, but no matter what, the artillery on the mountain still roared, and with the tiger squat cannon and rockets, there were heavy casualties.

The leader of the Karaqin Mongols cried: "Lord Belle! What to do? ”

Amin weighed it and said, "Rush forward!" ”

"What?" The leader of the Karaqin Mongols exclaimed.

"There is a silver lining to rush forward! If you retreat, you'll be done with it all! Can you bear the responsibility for the army's lack of food? Amin shouted angrily.

The leader of the Karaqin Mongols was silent when he heard this! So he nodded and began to order the soldiers to charge! This time the situation is much better than just now, at least the ground will not explode for no reason, Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan looked at each other, almost after Lu Xiangsheng ordered the firearms troops to retreat, and then Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan led the Guanning Iron Cavalry and the army of the five military camps to charge, Guanning Iron Cavalry also fought back with bows and arrows, and grenades were thrown out from time to time, and the soldiers of the five military camps threw grenades towards each other without money, and brought a lot of casualties to the other party, and the two sides soon fought together, Suddenly, flesh and blood flew sideways, the shouts of people and the neighing of war horses were endless.

After the beginning, the cavalry of Jin and Mongolia can still fight a draw with the Ming army, you must know that the Ming army is more than three times more than them! The overall combat power of the Houjin cavalry and the Mongolian cavalry was still several grades higher, but Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan quickly united and slashed and advanced in the direction of their handsome banner, and the camp of the Houjin and Mongolian cavalry was suddenly torn apart! The officers and soldiers of the five military battalions cooperated with the Guanning Iron Cavalry, starting work up and down, and the casualty rate of the Houjin and Mongolian cavalry gradually increased, and the two leaders of Amin and the Karaqin Mongols gathered together, looking at the situation in front of them, they suddenly felt bad, "Lord Belle!" There are a lot of people on the other side! We are unstoppable! ”

"Ben Baylor is watching!" Amin said.

Both of them don't look very good, and the explosion just now has caused them a lot of damage!

"Let's retreat!" The leader of the Karaqin Mongols hurriedly said, if you don't leave, it's too late!

"You have to go, you go!" Amin said angrily, he knew that such a big loss to the army would not end well if he went back, Huang Taiji had long wanted to find an excuse to get rid of himself, how could he miss such a good opportunity!

The leader of the Karaqin Mongols looked at Amin and said, "In that case! Lord Belle, take care, I want him to tell the army about the situation here! As he spoke, he began to withdraw, originally he thought that it would be nothing for him to go, but many Mongolian soldiers saw that the leader had run away, so they ran with him, and suddenly the pressure of the golden cavalry increased unprecedentedly, and soon collapsed! Amin scolded in his heart: "This stupid X! Pig teammates! I was miserable by you today! “

"Warriors of Daikin! Don't retreat! Follow Benbel and kill all these damn Ming troops! Amin raised his sword and yelled, but as soon as he finished roaring, a spear pierced through the body of the guard behind him, and then passed through his own body, and his eyes went black, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and fainted.

The battle won the victory without suspense, the leader of the Karaqin Mongols fled with the remnants of the Mongol cavalry, and then the rest of the Jin cavalry surrendered, looking at a large amount of grain and grass in front of them, Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chonghuan hesitated, what to do? So much grain and cattle and sheep, burn them, kill them all! What a pity! Ship it away, so much, it will be in vain to be caught up by the enemy's army.

Looking at this large number of victory materials, Lu Xiangsheng looked at Yuan Chonghuan, the two of them stared at each other, and they couldn't decide for a while, and there were still these prisoners of war, what should I do?
