Chapter 31: The Iron Curtain! Battle of Pingliao (5)
At dawn, a thick fog lifted. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
On the official road leading to Shengjing City, a group of remnants fled in embarrassment, and ran out of more than ten miles in a row.
This is exactly Ma Guangyuan and his party who escaped from the siege of Dolgon's army in Liaoyang City, and if it weren't for the fact that the west city was a little biased, Dolgon's army would focus on the east city, and I was afraid that it would be difficult for Ma Guangyuan and his party to escape from this city.
"Lord Zhang, how is the situation?"
When he rested, Ma Guangyuan didn't care about the injury on his left arm, and was busy asking Zhang Cunxiao on the side.
Hearing this, Zhang Cunxiao, who had just finished counting the remnants, had a look on his face.
"My lord, there is not one or two out of ten."
"Alas, it's just pity for those innocent soldiers!"
Although he had expected the result to be like this, when he really heard about it, he still couldn't hide the shock in his heart, looking at the remaining three or four hundred people, all of them were injured, their faces were sad, and they were even more sad.
"My lord, where do you go next?"
Despite the heavy losses, but after escaping from the ascension, where to go, naturally placed in the most important position at present, whether to go to Shengjing, or to Anshan to meet with Abatai, and then recapture Liaoyang City in one fell swoop, when facing this problem in the real sense, Zhang Cunxiao had to ask Ma Guangyuan's opinion, after all, he is the main general.
Hearing what Zhang Cunxiao said, Ma Guangyuan frowned a little, but after a while, he said resolutely.
"Let's go! Go back to Anshan and join Master Abatai! ”
For Ma Guangyuan's decision, Zhang Cunxiao also guessed the reason, after all, the way to Shengjing is far more than Anshan, if this is the case, Dolgon is bound to have a foothold in Liaoyang City, and it is even more difficult to recapture it.
Second, Liaoyang is the southern gate of Shengjing, Liaoyang City is lost, the crime is great, if you return to Beijing at this time, it will inevitably be severely punished, so under the trade-off, going to Anshan is undoubtedly much better for Ma Guangyuan.
......
And when Dolgon attacked Liaoyang City at night, the Mandahai army along the Liao River had already reached the middle of the Liao River, which was the closest distance to Shengjing City.
On that day, Hauge had already led the white and white cavalry of his department to the sea, and at the same time, the other road was led by Gualga Turai to attack Xiping Fort, while in Shengjing City, the blue flag and the reorganized red and red flags were left behind.
"Report! Back to Lord Belle, according to the report of the front-line spies, it is said that the Dolgon fleet is only more than ten miles away from here! ”
"Ben Baylor already knows, after going down, continue to monitor the enemy's movements!"
"Huh!"
When the arrivals went down, Hauge showed a hint of joy on his face, and then ordered to go down and convene all the officers above the Niu Lu of the two banners here to discuss the matter.
"Ladies and gentlemen! According to the scouts here, Dolgon's army has gone north along the Liao River, and it is only ten miles away from here. Father Khan has already gone north to Zhenbeiguan, if we can defeat him in one fell swoop, it will be our glory! Livestock, wealth and women should be endless! Ladies and gentlemen! Let's fight! ”
Hauge said a few words, but it aroused the excitement of the crowd, and they wanted to fight with the Dolgon rebels here.
"Brother, how are the catapults prepared?"
At this moment, Haoge is asking Sakhalian on the side, to say that this love Xinjueluo Sakhalian, but is the third son of Daishan, when Huang Taiji ascended the throne, there was a meritorious support, and for Huang Taiji that is loyal, since the change of his own Si, Dolgon Xie Yue Tuo brothers two self-reliant, hearing this, Sakhalian is in front of the main palace scolded Yue Tuo, Shuo Tuo brothers are immoral, fell into their father is unkind and unfaithful, and vowed to draw a line with Yue Tuo brothers, swear to follow Huang Taiji to quell the rebellion.
And Huang Taiji named Sakhalian as the king of Doluo County, and used it as a red flag to solidify the mountain, but it can also be seen that Huang Taiji has a lot of trust in him, and although the red flag is left in Shengjing, but I heard that Dolgon and Yuetuo rebels are going north, so this Sakhalian is taking the initiative to ask for help and come to help in the war, and Hauge is naturally happy to agree.
"Brother Xian, don't worry, Brother Fool is ready to stop this matter, just wait for Brother Xian's order, and the rebels will be hit hard!"
If it is said that Houjin did not have firearms, there was naturally no heavy artillery, so when attacking the city, it was an extremely ancient throwing ordnance --------- trebuchet.
Later, when the Jin expedition to the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan, he had already obtained the complete production process of this ordnance from the Mongols, so there were more trebuchets in the Later Jin army.
On this trip, Hauge plans to cut off Dolgon's waist and strike a powerful blow! But he brought with him twenty trebuchets of all sizes, wanting to show off his might.
"Very good, guys, make or break here! Let's go! ”
.....
On the Liao River, it was calm and calm, and along the way, there was no slightest hostility.
Therefore, Mandahai is a little high-spirited, but the arrogance is also overflowing, but after all, before setting off, Dolgon admonished, so for the formation of the fleet, Mandahai has made a series of adjustments.
The two ends were heavily armed, and the middle was mostly earth and stones, and the precautionary thing was a surprise attack.
"Lord Hui, there is a river estuary set up by Shengjing not far ahead, and there are Huang Taiji guards stationed, but the trip is postponed?"
In the land of the Liao River, there is a ferry, which is a shortcut to cross the Liao River from Shengjing City, but there is a Niu Lu of the Yellow Flag stationed, so when he went here, there was a cavalry school who came forward to ask.
"How many men are there on the enemy?"
"Lord Huiyu, there is about a cow record."
"Smack!"
As soon as the Xiao riding school finished speaking, he was almost slapped to the ground by Man Dahai, and then there was a roar.
"What is the fear of an enemy army of Niulu! The order was given, and the ship's firecrackers opened fire on the shore camp in unison! ”
Although there are no red-coated cannons in Houjin, there are still some old-fashioned firecrackers, but most of them are obtained from the conquest of Korea and the defeat of the Ming army many times, but even if they are some old-fashioned firearms, they are not common in Houjin, and because of the war captured, most of them are damaged and cannot be used, but there are more than 20 firearms retained in the Battle of Luliang in the Dolgon fleet, but they can be used.
"Hey, the minion is going!"
In the face of Mandahai's order, the cavalry school escaped with a crawl and ordered the ship's gunners to immediately launch an artillery bombardment of the camp on the shore.
"Boom!"
For a time, the sound of artillery shook the sky.
......
"How can there be firearms in Dorgon's army!"
Although he had long expected that Dolgon's fleet would attack the camp on the shore, when he heard the sound of artillery, Hauge was still a little shocked, but he didn't understand how those Ming artifacts could fall into the hands of Dolgon, could it be that Dolgon had already colluded with the Ming emperor?
"Brother Xian, don't want this, listen to this voice, although it is overwhelming, but it is not issued by those red-clothed cannons of the Ming people, I heard that Dolgon has contacted Amin on this trip, presumably this ship must be from Amin in exchange for the firearms left by the Ming people during the Wanli period that day!"
Hearing what Sakhalian said, Hauge's eyebrows were a little soothed, but it was the truth.
"According to what the eldest brother said, how is it?"
"These firearms are old, they can't last, I heard that Dolgon is cunning, I never thought that I would be so stupid, so I used firearms here, but this is fine, when Dolgon's firearms are exhausted, the virtuous brother can start an offensive!"
