Chapter 852: Zu Dabi's Decision (1)

The front and rear of the Houjin Tartar were pinched, so that the army was instantly chaotic, and the artillery began to fire desperately, regardless of whether the gun chamber was too hot, as long as the shell could be fired out of the cannonball, in this process, there was constantly a situation of exploding the chamber, and the sergeant who operated the artillery suffered heavy casualties, but the role played by the artillery was huge, and it can be said that it played a decisive role, because of the sharpness of the artillery, the Houjin Tartar was blown up, whether it was attacking in front or encircling in the back, they were all shocked by the power of the artillery, The momentum of their offensive weakened significantly, and even stopped the offensive for a while.

Such a short period of time is very precious for the army, Chen Xinjia has no master, there is such a situation, he muttered to himself, I don't know what Lu Dao said, Zu Dabi has taken over the command, the previous worship of Chen Xinjia, this time to be thrown to the country of Java, Lord Su Tiancheng has long emphasized that as the commander of the army, the more dangerous it is, the more you must stay calm, you can't panic, otherwise the army will collapse.

What made Zu Dabi feel relieved was that the combat effectiveness of the border army had indeed improved, in the face of the attack of the Houjin Tartars, no one was afraid, no one ran away and retreated, although the ability was not as good as the opponent, but still fought with all his might, maybe the Houjin Tartars did not estimate, coupled with the power of the artillery, the offensive began for more than an hour, and the army only appeared in a short period of chaos, but it has not collapsed yet.

Huang Taiji really didn't expect that the artillery of the Ming border army, so powerful, made the attacking and encircled sergeants suffer heavy losses, the shells fired by these artillery, so that the sergeants and war horses within a radius of a few meters, almost no chance of survival, with the continuous firing of artillery, Huang Taiji's thoughts have changed, after all, it is tens of thousands of Ming border troops. Don't think about completely defeating the opponent in a short period of time, just besiege the opponent here and use the method of knocking kraft candy, which can reduce the casualties of the sergeants, and the combat effectiveness shown by the Ming border army. It also greatly surprised Huang Taiji's expectations.

The pace of the offensive slowed down, Huang Taiji asked Haoge, Azig and others to pay attention to the casualties of the sergeants, the losses should not be too large, and the army had to make peace with Dolgon, after destroying the invading Ming border army, they took Dalinghe City and Jinzhou City in one go, and tried to attack Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan, and achieved this step. The Great Qing Kingdom won a major victory.

Hauge and Azig and others, the arrogance is not as arrogant as at the beginning, after several hours of fighting, they noticed that the Ming border army is completely different from the past, especially the Ming artillery, too powerful, several times. Hauge's personal soldiers, in order to protect him. was blown away by the shell in an instant, leaving only his arms and thighs, Hauge was so angry that he wanted to go crazy, but there was no way, the artillery of the border army was too tricky, and it was always fired towards the middle of the army. The attacking army was difficult to connect before and after, and the number of sergeants who fought with the Ming border army in front was obviously insufficient, and it was impossible to give the Ming army a devastating blow. Regardless of the attack from the front. It's still in the back, and they've all encountered such problems.

Huang Taiji gave the order to slow down the attack, and all the officers did not refute it, and the cruel reality made them have to re-understand the Ming border army.

After dark, the army stopped fighting for the time being.

The middle military tent of the Ming army, Zu Dale, who was covered in blood, stared at Chen Xinjia with his eyes, this time, even a fool knows that the army has fallen into the encirclement, Zu Dale is very clear, the eldest brother Zu Dashou put forward a proposal to step by step, and I wonder if it was the plan of the Houjin Tartars, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

Chen Xinjia looked frustrated, fortunately he was still wise, when everyone asked him to retreat, he did not listen, and insisted on being with the army, if he chose to withdraw at that time, it may cause the army to collapse, and secondly, he may not be able to escape.

Tang Haitai's performance has always been a little neurotic, maybe he didn't expect to encounter such a situation, he originally followed him to Liaodong to make meritorious contributions, but now he is in a desperate situation, and he was really captured by the Houjin Tartars, then everything is over, whether he surrenders or not, he doesn't mention the retreat, look at the Houjin Tartars before and after, everyone understands that if you want to break through, unless you are under the escort of the army, there is no chance, two thousand personal soldiers, I'm afraid they don't have so much ability, they can fight a bloody way, By this time, Tang Haitai had no strength to speak.

"Boss, brothers are waiting for you to make arrangements."

Zu Dabi finally held back, did not lose his temper, at this time, there can be no internal problems, if there is any dispute, then there is really no way, judging from the current situation, breaking through is the only choice, and can only choose to break through at night, otherwise it will be consumed like this, and the army will be completely annihilated in the end, and no one should think that they can kill it.

Chen Xinjia looked at everyone blankly, and spoke weakly.

"Chief Soldier Zu, everything is up to your arrangement."

Zu Dale glared at him, and when he was about to speak, Zu Dabi glared at Zu Dale fiercely, Zu Dale lowered his head a little stupidly, Zu Dabi had already emphasized that the army had reached the critical point of life and death, and the internal quarrel could only accelerate the demise of the army, at this time, it was necessary to be calm, which was something that Su Tiancheng had emphasized all the time before.

Zu Dabi also nested fire, when the army began to conquer, everything was Chen Xinjia's final say, officers at all levels did not need to speak, and it had no effect if they said it, and now they were in danger, Chen Xinjia was dumb and couldn't say anything, but blaming had no effect, and finding a way was the only way out.

"Zu Dale, have you counted the casualties of the army?"

"The detailed statistics have not yet come out, but in today's battle, more than 10,000 sergeants were killed."

Zu Dabi nodded slightly.

"Zhilu Dao, so to speak, the army still has nearly 50,000 soldiers, the situation faced, everyone knows the Dao, I don't want to say more, at present our only way out, is to break through, time can not continue to drag on, one more day, our casualties will be greater, the more slim the hope of breaking through, this point after the Golden Tartars also know the Dao, I am afraid to lay a heavy line of defense, to prevent us from breaking through, tonight is the focus of the Houjin Tartars, but we must break through tonight."

"An army of 50,000 can't completely break through, there must be a sergeant to contain the Houjin Tartar, otherwise no one should think about being able to break through, what it means to stay, you all know the way, so I made a decision, the officers who followed me in Liaodong before, stay, I will lead you, cover the sergeants to break through, Zu Dale, you take 30,000 sergeants, try to break through, you don't fall in love with the ......"

Before Zu Dabi finished speaking, Zu Da stood up happily.

"No, you just want to stay, and I will stay, you break through with the big guy......"

"Zu Dale, sit down, the marshal has arranged it just now, and now I am in charge of all the actions of the army, if you disobey the order, be careful of military law."

Zu Dale's mouth moved, he didn't say anything, and finally sat down.

"I have just counted, eight red-coat cannons were blown up, ten general's guns were blown up, the rest of the artillery was intact, the ammunition was also sufficient, the power of the artillery, you also know the way, tonight's breakthrough, we have to rely on artillery, when the breakthrough begins, the artillery should not care about losses, do not save shells, bombard towards the east, and blow up a bloody road."

"Brothers, the border army has been guarding the Guanningjin defense line in Liaodong for decades, we must keep the fire of the border army, we must not let the Houjin Tartars be completely strangled, break through the brothers who broke out of the city, and quickly go in the direction of Dalinghe City, don't care about Yizhou and Montenegro, if my prediction is good, Houjin Tartars would have sent a large army a long time ago and set up an ambush in the direction of Dalinghe City, Houjin Tartars thought of besieging us, how could they not think of blocking our retreat route."

"Zu Dale, the sergeant who broke through, under your command, you remember, don't just think about fighting, you have to think about leading your brothers back, you don't go directly to Dalinghe City, bypass Dalinghe City, and go straight to the direction of Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan."

"Zu Dale, the safety of the marshal, I will hand it over to you, you must break through with the marshal, if the marshal is captured by the Houjin Tartars, it will be a shame for our border army, and it is also a shame for the court, you must remember."

After the arrangement, Zu Dabi apologized to everyone.

"Please, brothers, if we have the opportunity, we can meet again, if we don't have the opportunity, you will help me burn more paper ...... next year."

The tense deployment began, the time for the breakthrough was set at the time, and it was necessary to break through as soon as possible, the summer night, the time was not very long, if the time for the breakthrough was too late, and when it was dawn, the chance of being able to break out of the siege would be much smaller.

Zu Dale looked at Zu Dabi and was reluctant to leave.

"Second brother, you still lead the army to break through, and I will hold on."

"It's all this time, what are you doing so much, you hurry up and prepare, the time is almost up, remember what I said, here is a letter, it is my recital to the court, you bring it, you must break through the siege, hand over this letter to the court, hand it over to the emperor, if you have the opportunity, you should go to the command of Lord Su, everything I said just now was actually told to me by the eldest brother, and these are also analyzed by Lord Su a long time ago, but unfortunately the court ......"

Zu Dale couldn't help it, tears flowed out, he knew very well that Zu Dabi led more than 10,000 sergeants to stick here, what kind of ending would it be, these more than 10,000 sergeants, there is absolutely no chance of survival, the sergeants who broke through, what the ending is, it is not clear, but there is always a way to survive in the breakthrough.
