Seeing this, Duolong Ao "hissed" and took a breath of cold air. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Looking at the big pit in front of him, he was in a dilemma, he didn't know how many big pits were waiting in front of him, he thought about it left and right, there was nothing he could do, and in desperation, he had to say: "Retreat." ”

Hearing of the withdrawal, the Qing soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly led their horses backwards. Because of the hurry, many soldiers were pierced by triangular nails and had to limp towards the gap in the city wall.

"The Tartars are running away, let's fight." The firecrackers on the houses on both sides of the street shouted and happily hit their targets.

The white-armored soldiers in the Qing army used bows and arrows to cover the retreat of the army, and on the other hand, they also had to pay attention to their feet, so the threat to the musketeers was also greatly reduced, but because the white armor attracted the attention of the musketeers, there were many casualties.

Seeing that the Qing army had retreated, Zhao Guohua said: "The Tartars have retreated, and Li Garrison sent 200 officers and soldiers to carry wooden planks to pave the road in front. Not too wide, enough for two people. ”

"Okay." Li Xian agreed, and rushed over with hundreds of officers and soldiers carrying wooden planks, and Zhao Guohua led the assault team to cover them to pave the way.

Because they were afraid of the triangular thorns on the road, the Qing soldiers did not dare to go fast, so they were soon caught up by the commandos.

In a burst of gunfire, some people fell, and now, they didn't care about sticking their feet, and they ran away, and this time, there were more Qing soldiers whose feet were pierced, and these soldiers couldn't go fast, and were caught up and captured by the Ming army.

In order to eliminate the Qing army more, Zhao Guohua handed over these Qing soldiers whose feet were pierced to the officers and volunteers who followed behind, and he was only responsible for chasing the fleeing Qing soldiers.

"Run, the Ming army is coming." Looking at the Ming army chasing closer and closer, Duolong Ao shouted in panic.

When the Qing army fled from Zhuozhou City, only about 1,000 of the 3,500,600 people who came in were left. With these thousands of people bowing their heads and coming to Yanguli, Duolong Ao was shameless, so he could only kneel on the ground and ask for guilt.

With a gloomy face, he glanced at him, and Yanguli asked coldly and deliberately, "Duolong Ao, what are you doing?" Why is this the only person? And what about the rest of the soldiers? ”

"The subordinates were defeated again, and only about a thousand people were left to return." Doron Ao knelt on the ground, lowered his head and whispered in reply.

Suppressing his anger, Yanguli asked, "How many defenders are there in the city?" ”

"Probably...... About five or six thousand ......," Dolong Ao replied cautiously.

Hearing this, Yanguli laughed angrily, laughed wildly, and after laughing, he gritted his teeth and said: "Duolong Ao, you took 3,600 Manchurian warriors, and you were actually killed by 5,600 Ming troops and only about 1,000 people remained, it is really a shame for me to be in the face of the Qing Dynasty, such an incompetent person, what use do you want to have, come here, drag him down and behead him." ”

"Wow." The two armor soldiers came over and were about to drag Duolong Ao down and behead him.

Seeing that Duolong Ao was about to lose his head, Dekzik hurriedly stood up and pleaded: "Sir, the slave has something to say." ”

"What do you have to say?" Yanguli said, giving him a cold look.

After giving a salute, Dekzik said: "Lord, Duolong Ao was defeated twice, according to the Qing Dynasty military law, it should indeed be killed, but judging from the fact that our army was defeated by the defenders of Zhuozhou several times, it shows that the militia is not comparable to the ordinary Ming army, Duolong Ao and the militia have fought twice, although they have been defeated, but I also know some about the situation of the militia group, I ask to leave Duolong Ao's life for the time being, and after we eliminate the militia group, we will deal with it, I don't know what the lord wants"

"This ......," Yanguli mused.

In the art of war, the Han people say that knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible in a hundred battles, and Duo Long Ao really needs to know more about the militia in the city.

With this in mind, he said, "Bring Dolon Ao back, Ben Jue has something to ask him." ”

Duolong Ao was tied up and knelt in the field to be beheaded, and was defeated by the militia in the city twice, and he still felt a little unconvinced.

He has been in the army for more than ten years, and has fought many battles with the Ming army, and he also knows some about the firearms of the Ming army, and he thinks that the militia in the city is just relying on the city wall and sophisticated firearms, and defeating himself by trickery, if God gives him another chance, he will definitely defeat this militia.

"It's a pity, there's no chance." He lamented.

At this time, a Ghosh came over and said, "The lord has an order to escort Duolong Ao back for questioning." So, the two armor soldiers pushed Dolong Ao back.

"The defeated general Xie Jue Ye will not kill him." Duolong Ao knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

Looking at him coldly, Yanguli said: "It's not that I don't kill you, it's General Dekzik who intercedes for you, saying that you know the situation of the militia in the city, and in order to eliminate the militia, I agreed to keep you alive for the time being." ”

"I have thanked General Dirk, and I will never forget the general's great kindness." Doron Ao knelt and kowtowed to Dekzik in thanks.

Dekzik stepped aside, waved his hand and said, "The general doesn't have to be like this, I'm also for the Qing Dynasty." ”

After the two had spoken, Yanguli said, "Dolong Ao, tell me how you lost this time?" ”

"Lord Wang, the slave led more than 3,600 cavalry to rush in through the gap in the collapsed city wall, thinking that it would be easy to defeat the defenders in the city, and opened the city gate to welcome the lord and the army into the city, but I didn't want to encounter the conspiracy of the Ming army on the way, so that our army could not give full play to the powerful combat power of the cavalry, and was later defeated by the Ming army." Dolon Ao said.

"The Ming army's plot? What kind of plot? Yanguli asked carefully.

Doronao took out a triangular nail wrapped in cloth from his pocket and carefully handed it to Yanguli. This triangular nail was specially picked up by him when he retreated.

Taking the finger-sized iron triangular spike, Yanguli looked at it carefully.

"How does this stuff work?" He asked, not understanding.

Duo Long Ao said: "The Ming army sprinkled soil on the way of our army's advance, and the soil was mixed with a large number of these triangular spikes, when the war horse stepped on it, there was no pain in falling, in order to avoid this kind of spikes, our army had to advance slowly, when out of that section of the section sprinkled with this kind of spikes, it happened to enter the range of the opponent's tiger squat artillery, causing a large number of casualties to our army, but the damnable thing is that when we got on the horse and began to attack, they actually gave up the small cannon, but blocked the approach of our cavalry with small cannons, When we moved away from the small guns blocking the road, they used a large number of guns to shoot at us, and we couldn't move forward, when we moved away from the small guns blocking the road and charged, there was a big pit in front, and the guns of the defenders were really sharp, it was difficult to advance, so I had to withdraw my troops, and when I retreated, I was chased and killed by the Ming army......"

After listening to the battle situation narrated by Duolong Ao, Yanguli also felt that the defenders of Zhuozhou were indeed difficult to deal with, frowned and thought about it, and asked: "You were defeated twice by the militia in the city, I don't know what you think of them?" ”

Kneeling on the ground and thinking carefully for a while, Duo Long Ao said: "Sir, this militia is well-armed, well-trained and scheming, and it is not comparable to the ordinary Ming army, and it is indeed difficult to eliminate them. ”

Hearing this, Yanguli asked again: "How many defenders are there in the city?" ”

"Including the Ming army, there are about seven or eight thousand people." Dolon Ao said.

"Is this number reliable?" Yanguli asked.

After thinking about it carefully, Duo Long Ao said: "When I fought that militia for the first time, they were still outside the city, and the number of people was four or five thousand, and the defenders in the city were two or three thousand, so it can be seen that the defenders of Zhuozhou should be seven or eight thousand. ”

Hearing this number, Yanguli looked at the big gap in Zhuozhou City, pondered, he thought: "This time I brought more than 15,000 people to take Zhuozhou, I thought that I could capture this city without much effort, but I didn't expect to lose a lot of losses, and now there are only seven or eight thousand people on my side, which is equivalent to the number of defenders in Zhuozhou City, not to mention that there is still that militia in the city, and it is not possible to attack hard, even if it is forced to break in and capture Zhuozhou, it will be a disastrous victory." ”

Thinking of this, Yanguli resisted the urge to continue sending troops to rush in and said, "Go back to the camp." With that, he turned his horse's head and went back to the camp, and the Qing army followed.

After beating the Qing army out of Zhuozhou, Zhao Guohua sent people to guard the gap in the city wall, and on the other hand, he collected the Qing army left in the city with injured feet and did not run away, and sent people to report the victory to Fan Jin, Zhizhou.

"I don't know if I can win this time?" Zhizhou Fan Jin muttered in a low voice, walking anxiously back and forth in the state office.

Listening to the sound of fire and shouting in the city, I was very worried, and stopped from time to time to make up my mind.

Ever since he heard that the city wall had collapsed a gap by the Tartars' cannons, he was very alarmed, not knowing if the city could be defended, and he knew that once Zhuozhou was occupied by the Tartars, he would be finished.

Just when he was frightened, the official at the door came in with a happy face and said, "Report to Lord Fan, Captain Zhao and Li Shoubei they beat away the Tartars who rushed into the city, and we have won again." ”

"You say...... We're winning again? Fan Jin grabbed this official and asked in surprise.

The official nodded desperately: "Yes, my lord." We won again. ”

"Good! Good! Good! Take me to see Captain Zhao, and send someone to inform the whole city of the good news. Fan Jin excitedly ordered as he walked.

When Fan Jin walked to the vicinity of the East City Gate with twenty or thirty servants, he saw the Qing soldiers who were tied up like zongzi and the corpses of the Qing army in one place, as well as many dead war horses.
