As an experienced commander, even if Abatai didn't have a telescope or a pole car, he just put his hand on the pergola and observed it on his horse for a while, and combined with the information brought by the fleeing scout, he grinned and said: "This Ming army is not easy to gnaw, and some of them are fighting in today's battle." ”

"Father, how can you see that?"

This time, it was not the studious Zhenguo Gong Yue Le who was questioned, but his third brother, Belle Bolo.

As the son of Abatai, Bolo completely inherited his father's warlike genes, and in the ninth year of Tiancong, he and Duoduo attacked Ning Jin, sealed Shanbeizi, and was also appreciated by Huang Taiji.

In the first year of Chongde, he entered the Imperial Court and participated in government affairs, which was a signal that Baylor, the prince of the Eight Banners, had changed from an ordinary nobleman to an important minister of the imperial court. In the sixth year of Chongde, he set up an ambush in the local area and defeated Wang Pu, the general soldier of Ming Datong, and Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Ningyuan, and made great achievements.

According to his merits and qualifications, he should have been named Baylor or the king of the county a long time ago, but because Abatai was not proud, Bolo was also suppressed.

In the first year of Shunzhi, Abatai was finally crowned the king of the county, and Bolo was immediately awarded Baylor, and in terms of title, he was always inferior to Abatai.

After many years of fighting, Bolo has also led the army alone several times, and has developed a steady and thick general's style, compared to Yue Le, who is younger than him, Bolo has long been like a famous general.

This time to the south, according to the original historical trend is not Boluo's share, he should be in the Duoduo army at this time, all the way to Tongguan, and Liu Zeqing and other troops to attack Jiangyin under the unfavorable circumstances, and later until Hangzhou. Then as a general, he fought in the south and in the north, and when his brother Yue Le was still a prince of Zhenguo, he was already a prince.

This son asked, Abatai obviously paid a lot of attention, and immediately replied: "The left wing of the Ming army is very strong, and I can't see anything on the right wing, but Sun Chuanting has led the army for many years, and he will not be strong on one wing and weak on the other." In this way, we will not be able to use the tactics of waiting for the Ming army to attack from the two wings. ”

The Qing army fought with the Ming army, and it has always been the heaviest cavalry, and the Manchurian cavalry theory does have an element of boasting, but it cannot completely negate the role of its cavalry in rapid maneuvering and seizing favorable terrain on the battlefield, forming an encirclement deterrent to the Ming army psychologically and practically, and causing the Ming army to rout without a fight.

When maneuvering, the cavalry of the Qing army will also seize every opportunity to give the Ming army a long-range strike, which is recorded in some records of the Ming army's Liaodong civil officials at that time, such as archery standing on a horse, or a special large bow and arrow, the arrow is like a spear.

Of course, these words are exaggerated and untrue, but the tactics of the Qing cavalry's flank attack are absolutely in line with the facts.

But this way of fighting, that is, to scare those useless waste, the Ming and Qing dynasties have been fighting outside the pass for many years, and many wars at the beginning as long as the cavalry of the Qing army appears, the morale of the Ming army will collapse, and the general will choose to flee as soon as possible.

For example, in the Guangning Battle led by Wang Huazhen, tens of thousands of Ming troops just saw the shadow of the Qing army, and Zu Dashou turned around and fled first.

As soon as the ancestral department fled, the Ming army's position was of course in chaos, and then the generals of Guangning Town were in civil strife, Wang Huazhen was only spared, and behind him, tens of thousands of corpses of Ming army camp soldiers were left behind.

This kind of battlefield, of course, is the most comfortable time for the Qing army to fight, and it is also a good memory for Abatai and others.

Of course, in Liaodong, they also encountered hard stubble, such as the Xuan soldiers of Mangui, who fought fiercely, leaving a very bad impression on Abatai and others.

The Ming army in front of him has the feeling of being the army of Xuan back then. And that's not all. Abatai's battlefield sense of smell quickly translated into actual judgment.

The Ming army in front of him, the morale is not low, the original expectation that yesterday's defeat of the Ming army in Shandong Town will give the Ming army a blow to destroy the surname does not exist, in fact, the Ming army dares to go out today, it is obvious that Sun Chuanting and others have quite strong confidence in morale and the binding force of the generals.

You must know that the most terrible thing about the civilian leaders of the Ming army has always been that the generals fled on the battlefield.

Because of Chongzhen's short-sightedness and mishandling, the generals gained the power to do their own things that they had not had for more than a hundred years during the Chongzhen period. Defeated generals like Zuo Liangyu who have repeatedly fled, as well as Datong general Wang Pu, who has a slippery head, just because they have heavy troops in their hands, Chongzhen never dared to put them to justice, and after a long time, the generals have figured out the details of the court, and the awe of civil officials is only limited to the surface.

The generals who fled on the battlefield are simply endless.

When Songshan, Hong Chengchou was sold by a bunch of generals, and after Songshan, there was no record of a large number of Ming troops and Qing troops facing each other.

Sun Chuanting in front of him is worthy of being an outstanding civil official and commander in the late Ming Dynasty, and as soon as the formation came out, the Qing generals felt a long-lost pressure.

In particular, the left-wing Gao Jie's department, in the eyes of Abatai, is a terrifying existence than the Xuan soldiers back then.

After all, Xuanda Town doesn't have so much heavy armor to equip soldiers!

In front of Abatai's eyes, the left flank of the Ming army lined up was like a swimming silver snake, a large number of iron armor shone in the light, flashing his eyes hurt, in the iron armor, there are faces that can feel anger and murder, coupled with those weapons that shine like thorns, the entire left wing Ming army is like an angry porcupine...... Such a pig will not only not have pleasure when eating, but I am afraid that it will also prick itself with a mouth full of blood.

"Where did they get so much iron armor?"

Although the Qing army was no longer the poor tribal bandit arm of the Later Jin Dynasty, before Tiancong, only the most elite Bayala soldiers in the Eight Banners had heavy armor and strong soldiers, and the ordinary flag soldiers might be a cloth robe and a big hat, and then in their hands was an inferior waist knife embroidered.

It was not until after Tiancong, after fighting the grass valley of the Ming army for many years, that the Qing side obtained a large amount of money and materials, all of which were used to build their own war machines.

Since then, it has been invincible.

Even if he has been rich for many years, after all, he is from a poor family, and Abatai at this time still can't help but marvel when he sees the luxurious camp of the Ming army.

He had eleven thousand soldiers, more than a thousand of whom were Mongol bannermen, and these bastards were completely negligible...... They are good at following behind the main force to pick up cheap, and they are stubbornly rushing to the enemy formation, where do these descendants of Genghis Khan still have this ability? Seriously, Abatai is unimaginable, but after more than 300 years, how can the former owners of the grassland now have this surname?

The Mongols were unreliable, and although the 2,000 Han troops were much stronger than the Mongols, they were obviously not qualified to be the main force.

The real main force is his own soldiers and horses plus the soldiers and horses that Dolgon temporarily transferred to him in Yanjing, adding up to less than 6,000 people, these are wearing double armor or even three layers of iron armor, strong as a bison, sharp knives and guns, solid armor stomach, sharp eyes and murderous Manchurian Eight Banners are the real weapons used by Abatai to defeat the enemy.

The remaining so-called soldiers are just bannermen with a layer of leather armor or cotton armor, Sauron soldiers, Oroqen soldiers and other miscellaneous troops. Compared with the Mongols, they were more obedient to orders, and they were worse than the Han army's combat effectiveness, so they could only issue a knife or spear, and follow behind with a strong momentum.

The Qing army only had about 6,000 iron armor, and the Ming army on the opposite side was an iron mountain from the left wing to the right wing, which gave Abatai a strong mental stimulation, and also made him know very clearly that today's enemy is very difficult to gnaw, not only has the consciousness and morale of the decisive battle, but also has the capital of the decisive battle.

"My father is right," Bolo was also pleased with Abatai's judgment, and did not think it was wrong. However, he had his own opinion: "But let's ignore their two flanks, and just concentrate all our strength and cross their central main formation." I have already seen that the main formation is dominated by their Pingyu army, and this is the new army trained by the crown prince of the Ming State in Qingjiang...... The new army, looking at their banners and dresses, they do look good, but I think they are just good-looking! ”

"yes, that's what I mean."

The two highest-ranking county kings and Baylor were of complete agreement on this point.

The banner and military uniform of the Pinglu Army, even after the armor is tied, it can be clearly seen that it is different from the ordinary Ming army, and no matter how poor the intelligence work of the Qing army is, it is impossible to be completely ignorant of the powerful new army of the Pinglu Army.

Under the limited intelligence, the only thing that can be determined is that the center of the enemy formation is a new army that has been trained for about half a year, compared to the fierce performance of Gao Jie's department and the unknown right flank, the Pingyu army in the middle should be a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch!

"That's it!"

Abatai waved his hand resolutely and ordered: "The whole division presses, first press with momentum, and then break through the enemy's main formation with the main force." Well, if Sun Chuanting wants to come and hit me, I will first hit him in the middle and tell him to disconnect the pliers on both sides, and when the time comes, he will not have time to cry! ”

"Father is wise."

Bolo replied simply, and then bowed down on the horse and asked, "Is it the son who leads the troops to rush into the enemy's main formation?" ”

"Not necessarily." Abatai said: "It is commanded by Gushan Ezhen Huaita, and Meljangjing Lashi is the striker. ”

"Yes, the son has gone back to his own field."

has led the army for many years, even if it is father and son, they have their own parts, and Bolo's subordinates are not under Abatai at all in terms of experience and combat effectiveness.

But the first wave of the battle must have suffered heavy casualties, Abatai will not use his own people, nor will he completely use the Manchurian Eight Banners, Huaita is the person who is the red flag, and Laxi commands the Han army and Sauron soldiers and other miscellaneous soldiers, since today is a bitter battle, these bastards who have always been hiding behind to pick up cheap bastards, this time they have to show some real skills.

Even if they were defeated, it would be nothing more than to help the main force alleviate some casualties and attract the firepower of the Ming army.
