Chapter 700: The Battle of Ningyuan (1)
"Seems to be a big official?" After the ambushed Ming army put Duoduo and the last few guards beside him to the ground, when they stepped forward to check, they saw that Duoduo's dress was obviously different from that of ordinary sergeants.
"Huh? No way?! Zhou Qi, who was tall, squatted down and fiddled with Duoduo's head, and after thinking about it, he suddenly screamed.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? The sergeants who were cleaning the battlefield around him all looked at him in amazement. Zhou Qi didn't say anything more, and hurriedly took out a picture album from his arms and shouted, "Flashlight!" ”
With the help of the light of the flashlight, Zhou Qi's hand trembling when he compared the album with Duoduo's head! "Brothers, we're going to send it this time! What a priest! The prince of Jianyu, the lord of the white flag, Duoduo! We've done a great job! ”
"What?!" It was a real ecstasy. These elite night harvesters who were ordered to block along the way really didn't expect such a surprising windfall? This man's head is worth a thousand dollars! Now I'm really going to get rich.
"That's right, right?" A sergeant with a calmer personality asked.
Zhou Qichang excitedly fiddled with Duoduo's armor. "It can't be wrong." Look at his armor, interiors, sabers! And this big seal! That's him, that's right! ”
"Let's go! Hurry up and bring it back! The sergeants were all excited. This is silver and military merit. I didn't expect it to fall into their hands. Flying windfalls, don't be sorry for yourself.
Duoduo, who was still spurting blood in large streams, was directly carried onto the war horse and dragged back. As for the rest of the Manchu soldiers, they were all beheaded and taken away.
In the past, he was majestic and had outstanding military achievements, and he didn't know how many Erke Chuhu of the Han people in Liaodong had been killed. In the future, after entering the customs, he raised a large butcher's knife and became the king of Duoluoyu County who committed the tragedy in Yangzhou on the 10th and the massacre in Guangzhou. At this moment, even after death, the corpse capital is tied to the war horse like a sold goods. All the way in the direction of the big camp.
"It's been a whole night, and I'm really tired." When he came to the big tent of the Chinese army, Gao Yang took off his coat. casually lay down on the marching bed, and shouted out a little annoyed.
"This time it's a great success. The night was not in vain. This Manchu army was finished. No more than 1 in 10 will survive the escape. Even if he escaped and returned to the camp outside Ningyuan City, he was only spreading fear. Origin said with a smile.
Gao Yang pulled up the pillow, crossed his hands behind his head, closed his eyes, and said softly, "It's not these results that I value. It doesn't matter to me how many enemies I kill. As I said before, there is no suspense about the outcome of the showdown between the firearms army and the army in the cold weapon era. What I value is the morale boost that this massive victory has given to this newly born army! After all, they were just recruits who had only been trained for a few months. This big win gave them confidence and courage. There is also a sense of pride and honor. Their sense of belonging to this army has also become stronger. That's the most important thing. As long as they play properly, what kind of enemy will be their opponent? ”
"You have a point." "This country has such a large population base. You have almost inexhaustible supplies there. What they lack is only the morale of the army and the determination to dare to fight to the death. ”
"Actually, I've never put those" Gao Yang was lying on the single marching bed and was about to say something, when suddenly there was a loud wave of cheers outside. Like the waves of the sea, they come from far and near.
"What's the matter?" Gao Yang opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows. Pursing the corners of his mouth, he asked in a low voice.
"Wait a minute." Origin answered, and after a few seconds, he said with some surprise, "Dodor has been killed." ”
"Oh?" Gao Yang turned over and sat up, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "I just feel like he can't run away." In such a large-scale encirclement and annihilation battle, all sides were filled with my people, and he was stared at the whole time. How could there be a chance of escaping? It's okay to be dead. It is recorded that his hands were stained with countless blood after entering the customs. The 10-day massacre in Yangzhou and the massacre in Guangzhou were his personal orders. It's cheap for him to die here. These Manchus. After entering the customs, the population of the Central Plains increased from more than 200 million to tens of millions! All damn it. ”
"Now go and see?" Yuan Dian said softly.
"Of course." Gao Yang chuckled and stood up, shaking his neck. picked up the military uniform and put it on, and strode out of the Chinese army tent. this night. It's not destined to be a quiet night!
"You say it again?!" The famous regent of the Qing Dynasty, Dolgon, was now carrying the collar of a Niu Lu Zhangjing like a street thug. With a hideous face, his eyes spitting out, and his big yellow teeth clenching hard, he asked word by word in an indifferent voice with a trill.
"Those Ming troops hung the head of the king of Doroyu on the banner." The Niu Lu Zhangjing's teeth were constantly chattering, and his eyes didn't dare to look at Dolgon in a rage. But even if your legs are shaking with fright, you still have to make things clear. At the same time, he scolded the bastards who let him report the military situation.
The emaciated Dolgon's hands loosened, and he took a few steps back, staggering to the ground. The eyes that were originally fierce and cold were now full of cloudy tears. His hands trembled slightly, and his face was bloodless!
"Lord Wang!!" The Manchu generals in the tent hurriedly shouted and rushed forward to help Dolgon up. There is also Erqi who yells for the doctor and the shaman to come quickly.
Dorgon and Dorgon are truly compatriots. The two brothers and Azig's mother were both Abahai. After Nurhachi's death. Because he held the two most powerful white flags of the Manchu Qing Dynasty that had been changed from the original two yellow flags, he was suppressed by Huang Taiji. And at that time he was young. He had soldiers in his hands but didn't know how to use them, so he could only watch his mother being forced to be martyred.
The three brothers, who lost their father and mother at a young age, depended on each other for their lives. Extremely emotional. Later, Huang Taiji won over and divided Azig. But the youngest and most powerful, Dordor has always followed his brother Dorgon loyally. No matter how Huang Taiji suppressed and co-opted, he never betrayed. The two brothers have a deep affection.
After the death of Emperor Taiji, Dorgon took sole power. And Dordor was his strongest right-hand man. Who would have thought that the news after message made Dorgon completely overwhelmed. Before leaving, he was fine, and said with a smile that he was going to kill the Bright Army and use their heads to make a ball kick.
However, yesterday evening, Boheto hurried back and forth, indicating that the army was too strong to resist. Ask Dorgon to send troops to support him immediately. At that time, Dolgon was still surprised, where did the Ming army come from so powerful? Even Erke Chuhu can't resist it? The army was immediately prepared, and all the armies were ready to move towards the white flag, except for the horses that continued to besiege the city.
By night, the army was still making preparations before departure, and Dolgon and the Manchu generals were still studying the map of the war zone. Dorgon's guard, Bayara, was tired and the horse rushed back crying that Dorgon was going to be unable to carry it, and begged Dorgon to send troops to save his life immediately!
Dolgon's scalp was scratched right then! The power in Dord's hands is immense! There are more than 10,000 soldiers, most of whom are elite. According to Boheto, the battle only started in the afternoon, so why did he have to save his life at night? That's more than 10,000 Manchu soldiers! What kind of Ming army could force them into this? Could it be that 100,000 Zhejiang soldiers have come here? But Qi Jiguang has been dead for so many years, and his method of training is long gone. Where did all these strong soldiers come from?
Dolgon, who was in a hurry, immediately ordered to send elite cavalry to the rescue. At the same time, the army will speed up its rearmament and set off as soon as it dawns tomorrow. But once again, things changed faster than Dorgon had expected. He'd never seen such a quick battle!
The elite cavalry who set off early suffered brutal resistance along the way. The Ming musketeers were extremely accurate, and they were still far away. Under the dim moonlight, no matter how the Manchu cavalry dodged and pursued, it was useless. You can hear the sounds, you can see the fire, but you just can't catch anyone!
Entering the woods at night to pursue the elite of the abominable Ming army, almost none came out alive. No one understood how the Ming army had seen them in the dark woods. You know, these elites are all seasoned hunters!
Will Gao Yang tell Dolgon about equipping the night vision devices for the night troops? Definitely not. The Manchu army would not understand how it was discovered until it died.
It was only after these exhausted Manchu cavalry who were tortured along the way that they endured until dawn that the resistance disappeared in an instant. And they moved forward quickly, and when they finally saw the Ming army troops that were heading towards Ningyuan City, the first thing was the head of the king of Duoluo Yujun who was hanging from the huge banner at the head! After that, there was the scene where he came back to report the military situation to Dolgon.
After the great victory last night, Gao Yang did not give the order to rest, but after a short rest, the whole army continued to set off. Rush to Ningyuan City as soon as possible! It's not that Gao Yang is in a hurry to rescue Wu Sangui, but Gao Yang is afraid that the Manchu army will be scared away!
At this time, most of the Manchu army was concentrated under the city of Ningyuan, where to find such a rare good thing in the future? Gao Yang didn't have time to chase all the way. Taking advantage of this good opportunity of the large-scale build-up of the Manchu army to defeat their main force in one fell swoop, this is what Gao Yang thought at this time.
As for the fact that Duoduo's head was hung on the flagpole, this was to boost the morale of the army and at the same time to discourage the morale of the enemy. In this era, there is no such thing as civilized warfare. Besides, when you go to the battlefield to fight to the death, who cares about this? Destroying the enemy and surviving yourself is the most important thing. Anything else is just that. Who does not know what the American army, which later claimed to represent the civilized world, looked like all over the world? What civilization fights? Just kidding. To be continued)
