Chapter 896: Taiping Kou is here
Ao Bai fell into deep contemplation and suspicion, and the tricks of the Han people in the Three Kingdoms were endless in his mind, and the images of poor worms who had been deceived appeared in his heart. In www.biquge.info the end, he ordered Yonggui, the deputy capital of Zhenghuang Banner, to lead his troops to test the Taiping army to see what the Taiping army was doing. He believed that if the thief Xiucai really died, the thieves in charge would definitely not really have the courage to fight the Qing army for life and death, and their greatest possibility was to make a false shot, and then run back to Nanjing to fight for power. Human nature is greedy and selfish, and the death of the thief Xiucai will inevitably make the power of the Ming Dynasty fall into a vacuum.
This thief is a good calculation, if he scares me back, he will have full confidence to go back to Nanjing to fight for power.
Ao Bai thought so, until now, he firmly believed that the thief Xiucai was either dead or seriously injured, otherwise the Taiping Kou under Yangzhou City would not have collapsed in such chaos.
At that time, the cry that came from the Kou array, not only did he hear it, but Shunzhi also heard it clearly, which is why Shunzhi dared to let Aobai lead the army to pursue. They all firmly believe that without thieves and talents, no matter how strong Taiping Kou is, it will eventually become a plate of loose sand.
To Aobai's disappointment, after the Yonggui Department and the Taiping army engaged, they broke out of the siege in less than a pillar of incense, with 120 or 30 casualties, and the Taiping army was killed and wounded no more than dozens.
The Yonggui Department is the Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade of the Zhenghuang Banner, and it is the foundation that the Qing Army in Yangzhou can play the most, and it is by no means comparable to those rabble in Outer Mongolia. Although there was a defeat in Sanwan, most of them eventually withdrew. Today's performance can't help but make Ao Bai gasp. He hurriedly dispatched more than 3,000 Mongolian soldiers to meet the Yonggui Division, so as not to annihilate the Yonggui Division, but after the reinforcements went up, they were cut off by the Taiping cavalry who crossed the river, and more than 1,000 soldiers and horses were scattered.
According to the Manchurian generals who withdrew, the morale of the Taiping Kou was high, and the combat power was amazing, especially the two white flag soldiers who had thrown themselves in the past were full of hard work for the Kou, and there was no sign of timidity and hesitation.
Yonggui, who almost lost his life in the hands of Ma Harrier, mentioned and king. The confrontation between the auxiliary ministers was even more shocking and speechless. After deciding down, he almost swore to the sky that he had seen the thief Xiucai, and he was not dead!
Ao Bai was speechless, he was finally shaken, and all his previous speculations and conjectures were ruthlessly shattered in the face of the facts. He found that now he should no longer find out whether the thief Xiucai was dead or not, but should decide when to withdraw.
The death of the thief Xiucai made the courage of the Qing army to mention, now gone, the thief Xiucai's prestige and the battle of Sanwan, and the shadow of the beheading under the city of Yangzhou once again lingered in the minds of the Qing army, except for Aobai, no one wanted to stay any longer. The emperor's uncle, Wu Keshan, the prince of Horqin, had unconsciously moved backwards.
The generals persuaded Ao Bai to withdraw his troops immediately, but Ao Bai was undecided. It was he who asked the master for the order to go out of the city to pursue him, and he was the one who asserted that the thief Xiucai was dead, and he was also the commander of the Sanwan War. The generals' gaze made Ao Bai feel that he was now a woman who had been stripped naked, and his face was hot, but fortunately his face was black enough, otherwise, he would really have a red face.
Ao Bai beat the drum in his heart, and he brought more than 10,000 Manchurian cavalry from Yangzhou, which is already the largest force that the master can come up with, even if he can't fight to the south of the Yangtze River, but the boss is dead, and it is not a problem to compete with the leaderless Taiping Kou in the land of Huaiyang. Ao Bai even thought that he could wash away his former shame in a battle, repeat the glory of the first warrior in Manchuria, and let the master see him, his eyes were no longer complaining, but appreciating. But now, is he once again in vain, making people continue to laugh and disappoint his master?
Ao Bai knew that the Taiping army had cavalry, although there were not many, but there were three or four thousand people, and now there were two white flag soldiers to help, and the cavalry should have five or six thousand people, but he did not think that the cavalry of the Taiping army could defeat the Manchu and Mongolian children. But Yonggui's fiasco made him lose confidence at all.
The thief is here, the thief is done!
Ao Bai clenched his fists hatefully, God knows how the thief show created such a strong army. But even so, he still did not order the whole army to retreat, he was worried that the scene of the Sanwan rout would be repeated, so he asked the troops and horses to prepare and put on a posture to face the battle, so that he could stabilize his position, and secondly, he could also let Taiping Kou think about it. After all, the Qing army had more than 10,000 cavalry, which was not a small force. With their strength, if they want to swallow more than 10,000 rides in one bite, I'm afraid that their stomachs will be broken.
After arranging all this, Ao Bai eased his breath a little, and he had the confidence to pull back the Manmeng Eight Banners, after all, it was the real Eight Banners, and the generals also relied on it. As long as the Manmeng elite is still there, the Qing Dynasty will not be defeated or die. Back then, Emperor Taizu raised troops with thirteen pairs of armor, didn't he still lay a huge foundation! In the first battle of Salhu, Emperor Taizu attacked more with less, didn't he also wipe out the 100,000 army of the Ming Dynasty! In the Songjin War, the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were only tens of thousands, and it was not the same to defeat the hundreds of thousands of troops put together by Chongzhen, and lay the "purple gas from the east" of the Qing Dynasty! ...
Calm, calm...
Ao Bai forced himself to calm down, and although his morale was low, he had no chance of winning. The cavalry of the Taiping Army is powerful, but the infantry may not be powerful, they are attacking, not defending, and they can't use those terrifying witchcraft! With so many cavalry in his own hands, as long as he divides some cavalry to contain them, and the main force is against their infantry, it is difficult to say that he will not win. Even if you can't win, you can make Taiping Kou stop there. As long as their cavalry had concerns, he could withdraw the elite safely. When I returned to Yangzhou like this, I always gave an explanation to my master.
said that he wanted to calm down, but the military tent must not be able to sit still, Ao Bai turned over his horse, and looked at the Han land on the ground with a black face. He was very emotional, and he was also very embarrassed, fifteen years ago, Prince Yu was majestic and majestic, and everywhere he went, he looked at the wind and fell, but he worshipped, but he was like this, it was really a shame for the Qing Dynasty.
The wind is not big, but it is not small. The winter wind of the Huaiyang land is quite tormenting than the wind in the north. The wind blew the red tassels on the top of the helmet straight, and from a distance, it seemed as if it was frozen. The wind suddenly stopped, and then the sun shone down from the clouds, and one felt a hint of warmth.
I don't know how long I looked at it, but there was a shout of killing from the south. The shouting of killing made Ao Bai feel excited, he clenched the reins of his horse, and there was only one thought in his mind - Taiping Kou is coming!
