Chapter 698: A Prince's Last Journey (9)

The Manchu cavalry, which had reached the limit of bearing, were all scurrying around like the sea at low tide, trying to get out of this terrible hell of flesh and blood. It's just that at this moment when all organization and command have been lost, everyone is crazy and wants to go first, but the more they want to go, the more crowded they become.

With so many people huddled together, cannonballs flew in the sky and bullets rained down on the ground. Can you just walk away if you want to? Except for Duan Na, who had been following behind, and those foot soldiers who had been grinding and running when they heard the call to retreat. That is, the outermost cavalry can also turn the horse's head and escape smoothly. As for those who were squeezed, they became even more panicked for a while. Because they heard the hope of life.

There are cavalrymen who are eager to survive directly against their robes, just to be able to cut and kill a way out. The shouting, the howling, the screams were endless. Originally, it would have been possible to re-clear the queue after a long time for the sergeants to recover, and they would still be able to leave. But suddenly there was a loud horn sound on the side of the Ming army!

Accompanied by the roaring sound of the horn, the sound of the Ming army's position suddenly burst into an earth-shattering roar. Countless Ming troops jumped out of their trenches, holding high the muskets that had been installed with snow bayonets, and rushed over with a roar.

Now the Manchu cavalry was even more confused. Their morale at this moment has all collapsed, and they no longer have the courage they had when they charged. All of them brandished their weapons, urging their horses under their crotches, and let out meaningless roars from their mouths trying to leave as quickly as possible.

There was also a reason why Duoduo let the Manchu cavalry retreat. Because thousands of cavalry on the side of the Ming army have already made a detour from the side of the battlefield!

Duoduo never thought that these Ming troops would be so fierce and dare to take the initiative to launch a counterattack! In a panic, he wanted to let the military horses on the front line retreat first. On the contrary, he did not run away in the first place. The main reason for not allowing it in face was secondary, mainly because the Manchu army was not a purely cavalry force. There were also a large number of foot soldiers among them. If they had fled at this time, the charging horse would have been finished. Those who have horses on this side of the big array may be able to escape back to the big camp outside Ningyuan City. But what about the footmen? It was impossible for them to escape from the pursuit of a large number of cavalry.

Not to mention those remnants, there are a lot of official armor people alone! Once these pawns were abandoned, the loss was not something that Dodor could afford. The Manchu human resources were very depleted. Especially these adult men, they really don't dare to lose any of them.

Dordor ordered the army to shrink and regroup in preparation for resistance. It's getting late. It will be dark after half an hour at most. As long as you can resist until dark and do not bomb the camp, you can hold most of the soldiers and horses. Hold out all night and wait until tomorrow, and Dolgon's army will be able to make it!

I have to say that Duoduo is indeed a good general. His plan can be said to be able to minimize losses. But he didn't understand what kind of army he was up against! His decision also completely ruined the life of himself and his soldiers! The Ming army on the other side was not the army called Hanako that he had encountered in the past. Rather, it is a purely firearms army that has always been well trained!

"Go back and report to the regent, and say that the military situation is urgent, and let him immediately lead the army to the rescue! Just go! Duoduo's face turned red, his eyes bloodshot, and he shouted at the guard beside him.

Watching Bayala who reported the news rushing all the way, Duoduo turned his head and looked at the Ming army on the opposite side with an extremely ugly face. At this moment, the cavalry of the Ming army on the flank of the battlefield rushed around the frontal battlefield. The front is even denser, and there are flashing cold points of light everywhere. The bayonets on those muskets were like specks of light in the afterglow of the setting sun. In the deafening shouts of killing, they rushed towards him overwhelmingly!

"Gather the soldiers and horses, enter the camp and hold on!" Duoduo gasped for breath with a hideous face, gritted his big yellow teeth in his mouth, and was full of reluctance to order to enter the makeshift camp and wait for help! "Hold on! It's getting dark. Those Ming soldiers are blind at night! You can't fight when it's dark! Hold out until tomorrow, when the regent will come to our rescue with a large army! ”

It's not like Duoduo didn't think about running away first. But he couldn't bear it! Most of the elite of his white flag are here. And there are at least 2,000 foot soldiers among them! These are his capital. He didn't want to give up when he still had the chance. As long as you hold out all night and wait for Dorgon's army to come to the rescue, you may be able to save most of the men.

As for him himself, he doesn't have to think about this kind of thing first. At this moment, the front army collapsed, and the main formation was shaken here. The morale of the army is a time of panic. If he runs away first as the coach, it will inevitably be the end of the bombing camp. If the camp is bombed at this time, under the pursuit of those Ming troops, there can be one-tenth of the people who can survive the night and escape all the way back to the camp outside Ningyuan City, even if they have burned high incense.

Ultimately. Still, Dodor chose a path that was completely dead end for him and his men. As for what the final outcome will be, it will soon be known.

......

"It's funny, they thought they could hold that humble camp in this situation?" Gao Yang looked at the instant screen on the laptop and laughed.

When I found out that the Manchu army sounded the call to retreat. Gao Yang, who was already about to be overwhelmed, immediately ordered to start a full-front assault. The dragoons, who had previously moved rapidly to the flanks, also began to accelerate their advance, trying to cut off the Manchu army's retreat. As for how much can be stopped, it depends on the will of God. Who would have thought that Duoduo actually chose to stick to that simple camp! Is this a hole for yourself?

This is a plain area, and tens of thousands of horses are guarded in a small camp. Facing a thermally armed army armed with a large number of firearms and artillery. How can you hold it?! Not to mention anything else, after the army is encircled, all the artillery will be pulled up and bombarded, and the explosion will kill you.

"I guess they may be unfamiliar with the way they fought in the age of hot weapons. Want to drag until dark and wait for rescue. After all, according to the common sense of this era, it is impossible to continue large-scale operations after dark. Because most people have night blindness. And their army isn't that far from here. If they received the news and set off overnight, the cavalry unit would definitely be able to arrive tomorrow morning. "The origin analyzes the choice of Duoduo in detail. Not to mention, he really guessed Duoduo's thoughts.

"Sure enough, ignorance is the greatest original sin." Gao Yang closed his laptop. sighed lightly, and said softly in a compassionate tone, "So I said, you must read more as a man!" If you have knowledge, you can see everything clearly. Doing things like the illiterate people on the other side can be avoided. Therefore, knowledge determines fate. ”

"Didn't you say face?" The sudden complaint from the origin made Gao Yang stunned, and he didn't know how to continue. After a pause, he pouted and said, "Fight well, don't talk about irrelevant things." ”

......

Rarely, Zha Leng Mu actually escaped alive and returned to the makeshift camp. The Mongol cavalry under his command were able to return alive with only a few hundred. Most of them died under the guns of the Ming army, and some of them fled in all directions, and they don't know where they went at the moment.

"Lord Wang." Zha Leng Mu came to Duoduo in fear, not knowing what to say. He was afraid that Dodor would cut off his head.

"Well done. Let's go and recuperate. "It's as if Dodor doesn't remember anything from before. Nodding slightly, he chuckled and said, "When the regent comes, this king will ask for credit for you." ”

"Yes, yes." Zha Leng Mu retreated in confusion. He couldn't see the coldness and murderous intent in Duoduo's eyes. At this time, the soldiers and horses were besieged in this temporary camp, and there were still hundreds of cannon fodder available under Zalengmu's men. Duoduo spared him a dog's life for the time being, and if he really waited until Dorgon's army came, then Zhalengmu would really be dead!

"Lord Wang, what should we do?" Duanna, who had fled first, leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Duoduo gave him a cold look and snorted, "What else can I do?" Hold on here, and the Regent's army will surely come after dawn tomorrow! "Dord's words were more of an encouragement. After all, there were many people with night blindness in the Manchu army. Even if the torches along the road are fully lit up, it is not easy to rush over. At this time, Duoduo already had some regrets in his heart, looking at the dense firelight outside the barracks, he always had a slight palpitation in his heart. This feeling is very bad.

After the Manchu army retreated to the temporary camp, the Ming army quickly surrounded the camp. At this time, it was already night, but the torches all over the mountains and fields reflected the whole earth brightly.

Gao Yang rode a war horse and came to a place not far from the Manchu military camp surrounded by the guards. Looking at the temporary barracks, a sneer hung on the corner of Gao Yang's mouth, "Just like this, you still want to resist for a night?" What about when you are Verdun? ”

"You're going to fight at night?" Origin asked.

"What a night fight." Gao Yang waved his hand disdainfully, "Surround me to death!" Bring in the artillerymen and bang the fuck! ”

Duoduo's heart had always been uneasy. As if something bad was about to happen. It's no wonder that he's in a trance. In the past, it was always the Manchu army that pressed the Ming army. This is especially true when it comes to field fights. Not to mention being surrounded and blocked in the camp, even in a serious battle, the Ming army has not broken through their battle line! This is the first time that he has been beaten up.

A restless Duoduo dressed up and rounded the camp under the escort of a large number of bayalas.

As time passed, the panic in Duoduo's heart grew stronger, even to the point that even the handsome war horse under his crotch began to be agitated. Just when he was about to lose control and was ready to find someone to vent his anger. Outside the camp came the neighing of a large number of horses, as well as the neat and loud slogans of the sergeants!

Duoduo's face turned extremely pale in an instant. He finally remembered that this Ming army had a large number of artillery! (To be continued.) )
