Ma Xintian's words stimulated the innate fear of the Eight Banners in everyone's hearts for the Qing Army, which had been shrouded in their heads since when, and the original fire-like enthusiasm was suddenly extinguished.

Li Tingyu, Zu Bian, and Li Yan fought against the Houjin army outside the Guan, and Li Dingguo, Liu Yun, Liu Li, and Zhang Jianchun fought against the Qing army in the Great Western Army and the Southern Ming Army. Ma Wannian, Ma Xintian, Ma Long and others are all natives who have stayed in Sichuan and have never left the province, and their impression of the Qing soldiers comes from the descriptions and boasts of the Qing soldiers by various people, plus the battles with the Eight Banners in Sichuan and Shaanxi.

But in any case, when it comes to the Jurchen Eight Banners Army, even if there are people in such a strong army as the Kuizhou Army, they will involuntarily have a turbulent mentality, and Wang Huan's two hundred elite guards on the Qinling Plank Road used cold weapons to fight for fifty Baya soldiers The lesson that they almost didn't fight is still vivid, if the Eight Banners soldiers from Datong are really more than the Kuizhou army, then it may be too risky to face it head-on.

So the crowd closed their mouths and fell silent, and although no one spoke, it invisibly revealed a worried emotion.

Wang Huan turned his head, looked at everyone, smiled, pointed at Ma Xintian and said, "Look at it, your words scared everyone." ”

Ma Xintian didn't care, and looked at Wang Huan waiting for the following, he knew that Wang Huan was by no means blaming himself.

Li Tingyu touched his beard with some embarrassment, and said in a rough voice: "My lord, I'm not afraid of war, let alone Tartar!" More than 100 catties of this whole body have been handed over to adults, are you still afraid of death? I just think that the Tartars will attack Datong, and there will be no fewer people to rescue Taiyuan, so we will first retreat to the Shiling Pass, and then ambush the troops on the side as usual, and wait for the Tartars to be tired, and then surprise the sneak attack, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort? ”

The crowd nodded their heads, thinking it made sense.

This is an old plan, steady!

However, Wang Huan shook his head, looked up into the distance, sighed lightly at the clouds on the top of the mountain in the distance, gritted his teeth and said: "What General Li said is not unreasonable, but we can't retreat in this battle, this battle, we have to win with dignity, we want to win simply, win neatly, and let the whole world know that my strong army of the Ming Dynasty is only invincible in the world with my Kuizhou army, and the wild people in the east are just the souls of the sword!" ”

Invincible! Dead souls under the sword!

Everyone's eyes widened, and before they could recover from their surprise, they heard Wang Huan speak again.

"Our battle is a battle to let Jiannu recognize the situation, let them know that if today is no longer their monopoly and sweeping the world, our Kuizhou army is more capable of fighting than them, more ferocious than them, to make them feel dangerous, in other words, we occupy Sichuan, Keshaan, those Manchurian nobles who are far away in Beijing do not feel a real threat, and if we eat his main force in Shanxi, they will be afraid!"

Wang Huan waved his fist to deepen the appeal of his words in the hearts of everyone: "Shanxi is so close to Jingpu, in order to save their lives, Dolgon will definitely withdraw the troops scattered in Huguang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places, in this way, we are equivalent to holding the neck of the Tartars, forcing them to withdraw from the whole country to support Beijing, this is also a large-scale siege of Wei to save Zhao!" ”

"So this battle is our battle of prestige, and we want to make Dolgon feel afraid, afraid from the bottom of my heart, afraid that we will go all the way east, along the road of Li Zicheng, and enter the city of Beijing."

"Therefore, in this battle, we must fight with dignity, and let them see that our way of fighting is different from theirs, and we must let the blood of the Tartars flow all over every inch of land here, and we want their heads to be piled up as high as the towers of Shiling Pass! Let the sword in the hands of each of our warriors be dulled by chopping off the head of the Tartar! ”

Every time he said a word, it seemed that a layer of light emanated from the top of his head, piercing into the eyes of every Kuizhou general, shining like the sun, emitting a hot current like the sun, which penetrated from their eyes, nostrils, mouths and even every pore, flowed through the seven meridians and eight veins, and finally converged into the violently beating hearts.

A large-scale siege of Wei rescued Zhao, and the soldiers forced the north to be directly subordinate!

With the shortest route, force the Qing court to gather troops and try to protect Beijing, otherwise once Beijing is lost, the Shanhai Pass will be blocked, and the Jiannu who remain on the land of China will be equivalent to falling into the vast sea of the Han people, and it will be difficult to escape death.

Li Tingyu and the others suddenly realized, it turned out that Wang Huan had such a grand plan in his heart, and he had to wait for Shaanxi to stabilize, so he had to rush to send troops, it turned out that he wanted to take advantage of Jiang Huang's excellent opportunity anyway to play this unparalleled game of chess!

Then the battle of Shiling Pass was indeed a battle that opened the eyes of the Qing court, fighting with a strong frontal army, and winning the battle, so that Dolgon could realize what kind of people and soldiers he was facing.

All the generals felt that their blood was boiling, and the eldest husband joined the army, isn't it just to make immortal contributions to heaven and earth? Is there anything more great than turning the tide and helping the community by himself? Zhongxing famous general, reincarnated Yue Fei, isn't it exactly what Wang Huan said to do?

The atmosphere is like a barrel of high explosives, and it only takes a small spark to explode, and the cheers will immediately resound in the wilderness.

But Mars didn't light up because someone poured a bucket of water.

"My lord, you haven't explained how to deal with it if the Tartar soldiers are strong and their military strength far exceeds ours!"

Ma Xintian's dry voice sounded again, and the water was poured down, still ice water.

Everyone glared angrily, but Ma Xintian turned a blind eye.

Wang Huan nodded and asked, "Our training in Shaanxi, can your thousand-person team practice familiarly?" ”

Everyone nodded hurriedly, thinking of the devilish training in Shaanxi, these iron-clad soldiers were trembling, I really didn't expect that Wang Huan, who was kind and kind on weekdays, would become Shura when he trained his soldiers, a quiet and quiet person, he could actually be transformed into a Yama who burst like fire, twelve hours a day, and he couldn't wait to use it all for training, grinding and polishing, even if he was fighting, he didn't have the intensity of this kind of training.

"Would I believe me if I said that if we played half of our training and played half of our ability, we would not only win against the Tartars, but also reduce the casualties to negligible levels?" Wang Huan said lightly, like nonsense.

But is it?

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer, and for a long time, Li Tingyu gritted his teeth and said, "I believe!" Follow Master Hou and be invincible! ”

"I believe it!"

"I believe it!"

"Master Hou, we all believe it!"

The generals shouted and echoed.

Wang Huan laughed heartily, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and said categorically: "You should believe it, because what we want to fight is not a symmetrical war." ”

…….

Time flies, nearly ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, at the edge of the Xinding Basin, there is a large group of Qing soldiers, the Kuizhou army scouts of Fulu, Pegasus rushed back to Shiling Pass, to report the military situation, at the same time, Shiling Pass has a large Ming army haunted, the news of the retreat guard, also into the ears of Nikan and Bolo.
