Chapter 971: Extraordinary Battle (5)
The reinforcement is Datong's 10,000 border army, the commander is Liu Wenxiu, Qin Liangyu is old, it is impossible to directly command the battle, the charge is at the front, Qin Liangyu also understands this, and did not fight in front of Su Tiancheng.
Su Tiancheng agreed to the Datong border army to join the battle group, he wanted to see what kind of measures the Houjin Tartars would take, in fact, he was a little worried in his heart, if the Houjin Tartars were desperate and launched a charge, the situation may change in an instant, but asked the Jiangning battalion soldiers to launch a comprehensive charge, facing only the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners, the Han Army and the Horqin Tribe, Su Tiancheng was really a little unwilling, such a charge, can not achieve the greatest results, some fuss.
Su Tiancheng hoped that Houjin Tatar would also send some of his sergeants to charge and would not launch a full-scale attack, in that case, his arrangement would really work.
When the 10,000 Datong border troops began to charge, Su Tiancheng had already asked Hong Chengchou to come to his side, and he didn't say anything and directly arranged the task.
"Lord Hong, if it is the reinforcement of the Houjin Tartars, after they join the battle group, they will immediately launch a general attack, and all the Jiangning battalion soldiers will be pressed up to completely defeat the opponent, don't hesitate, if the Houjin Tartars launch a full impact, they must also be pressed up, but the effect may be different."
Hong Chengchou didn't speak, he already understood what Su Tiancheng meant, this battle is extraordinary, it is impossible for both sides to completely annihilate the opponent, judging from the fighting situation on the battlefield, both sides have made sufficient preparations, thinking about solving the problem through a battle, there is basically no possibility, it can only be said to see who has won the final victory, who will be the first to evacuate the battlefield.
After accepting the order, Hong Chengchou quickly went to prepare.
Su Tiancheng walked out of the makeshift Chinese military tent and led the war horse. It went up neatly.
Wu Rong and the others, knowing that Su Tiancheng might be about to charge in person, the four of them didn't say much, they immediately jumped on their horses, surrounded Su Tiancheng in the middle, and the army fought. Any situation may occur, and their responsibility is to protect Su Tiancheng's safety, as for the battle situation, it has little to do with them.
Qu Qingze also got on the horse, and when Qin Liangyu was also about to get on the horse, Su Tiancheng spoke.
"General Qin, you should beat the drum to cheer for the army."
Qin Liangyu looked at Su Tiancheng and smiled.
"The marshal ordered. If you dare to disobey, your subordinates will beat the drum to cheer up the army. ”
Su Tiancheng's prediction was good, Houjin Tartar really didn't go all out to attack, and the sergeants sent were also about 10,000 people, how could the Jiangning battalion miss such an opportunity.
The heralds beside Hong Chengchou held high the red banner. This is the order to launch a general offensive.
In an instant, a huge drum beat sounded. The steppes began to tremble.
In the midst of the rumbling drums, Su Tiancheng raised his steel knife and began to charge with a loud roar.
"Brothers, follow me to kill the Tartars, rush ......"
Su Tiancheng took the lead, and the coach charged at the front. This was a huge encouragement to the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, the war horses began to neigh, a huge roar also came out, and a huge red stream began to think that the battlefield of the fight covered the past......
The tide of battle changed in an instant. The 40,000 soldiers of the Jiangning battalion joined the battle group, like a heart-booster, and the sergeants of the Xibe tribe, the Daurian tribe and the Datong border army also began to go crazy, they all understood that this was the last charge, and the decisive victory was in this charge.
The charge of 40,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers destroyed the withering and decaying, and in the shortest possible time, the battlefield that was already full of blood tore a huge gap, and a steady stream of soldiers rushed to the opponent and cut the opponent to the ground.
The sudden general attack made Dai Shan's body tremble again, he didn't expect that Su Tiancheng would launch a general attack at this time, and it was at the forefront, the momentum of the Jiangning battalion sergeant's charge had overwhelmed everything, and the sergeants of the Horqin tribe, including the Han Eight Banners and the Han army, began to be afraid, and the 10,000 soldiers with red flags who had just been reinforced were vulnerable in front of such a huge red stream.
At this time, it is impossible to shake the momentum of the opponent, the courage of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, Dai Shan is very clear, and when he came to the grassland, he had a secret conversation with Huang Taiji, shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the safety of Haoge's life, in this case, he did not dare to take risks, did not dare to ask the army to kill all the people, if Haoge appeared in any danger, the blow to Huang Taiji was fatal, and it was also fatal to the Qing Dynasty.
The painful Daishan barely thought about it, and instinctively demanded that the herald immediately give the order to retreat on all fronts.
Hauge beside him let out an angry roar, not understanding the order issued by Dai Shan, in this case, retreat means rout, means huge casualties, means the defeat of this battle, and must not retreat.
Dai Shan also became cold at this time, and in the face of Hauge, who lost his temper, he unceremoniously said the words of obeying military orders, otherwise he would have to enforce military law.
Hauge could only stare dryly, he couldn't have violated military orders.
The sound of the golden gong was very harsh, piercing through the sound of the drums.
Hearing the sound of the golden gong, the sergeants of the Horqin tribe, the Han Eight Banners, the Han army and some of the sergeants with red flags who were fighting began to retreat on a large scale, but unfortunately the retreat at this time was not so easy, it was not so much a retreat as a rout.
Su Tiancheng smiled, although he took the lead in the charge, but he didn't have a chance to fight with the opponent, his side, in addition to Wu Rong and other guards, there were also a large number of personal soldiers, after all, he was the commander, and there must not be the slightest accident, otherwise the army would be leaderless, such a loss, the Jiangning battalion could not bear it, even the imperial court could not bear it.
Houjin Tatar issued an order to retreat, which was in line with Su Tiancheng's deployment.
At this time, the task of all the soldiers is to kill and injure the opponent to the greatest extent, but Su Tiancheng has already ordered the army not to pursue too far, and it is enough to stop, after all, there are still Houjin Tartars who have not participated in the battle.
The situation on the battlefield, because of the sound of the golden gong, has become a one-sided pattern, the sergeants of the Horqin tribe who are panicking, the Han Eight Banners who are barely maintaining, the sergeants with red flags who are still desperately resisting the retreat, and the Han army, which has no fighting spirit, cannot resist the attack of the Jiangning battalion soldiers and the Datong border army, and there are fleeing sergeants everywhere.
In fact, this situation should not appear, Dai Shan is a little more sober, or there is not so much fear, let the remaining soldiers of the Eight Banners all attack, after the two sides fight, slowly organize the army to retreat, the situation will be much better, the war also involves psychological problems, the sergeants of the Horqin tribe, the Han Eight Banners and the Han army, are fighting desperately, and do not show the situation of defeat, at this time, who can grit their teeth and persevere, it is possible to achieve the most difficult victory, at least to ensure that they do not fail, Su Tiancheng sent 10,000 soldiers to reinforce, in fact, it was a mistake, and it was also Su Tiancheng's choice as a last resort.
Unfortunately, such a situation does not exist.
Driven by the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, the sergeants of the Xibe tribe, the sergeants of the Daur tribe and the Datong border army, the more they fought, the more courageous they became, and they began to press step by step, the sergeants of the Horqin tribe, the sergeants of the Han Eight Banners and the Han army, could not support, and began to retreat on a large scale, relying only on 10,000 soldiers with red flags, it was useless, a little careless, maybe these 10,000 people would also be planted in, Daishan could not withstand such a blow, and Huang Taiji and the Qing Kingdom could not bear it.
The first to withdraw was the sergeant with the red flag, their loss was not large, after all, they had just joined the battle group, full of physical strength, the Han Eight Banners and the Han army, relying on the orderly organization, the loss was slightly smaller, the worst was the sergeant of the Horqin tribe, after a long time of fighting, they almost exhausted their physical strength, even if they wanted to retreat, they were not so fast, in the face of the menacing Jiangning battalion soldiers and the Datong border army, they had almost no strength to fight back.
Some of the Horqin tribe sergeants who had been unable to withdraw fell off their horses, and some simply took the initiative to dismount, indicating that they had abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion did not kill the opponents who dismounted and surrendered.
Daishan has already organized a comprehensive retreat of the army, the loss of the Horqin tribe army is the largest, almost no one can withdraw, this loss is within Daishan's ability to bear, the Xibe tribe sergeant and the Daur tribe sergeant, the loss is the same heavy, not much better, but unfortunately the loss of the Han Eight Banner is also very heavy.
At this time, the artillery began to exert its power again, and countless shells fell in the retreating army, and the screams came out with the explosion of the shells.
At this time, the soldiers with the red flag still played the role of Dinghai Shenzhen, they organized resistance on the one hand, and commanded the army to retreat on the other.
Slowly, Dai Shan felt that Su Tiancheng was not ready to order the army to pursue with victory.
Seeing that the defeat was decided, Dai Shan looked up to the sky and sighed, if Su Tiancheng ordered the army to pursue, the desperate soldiers were likely to burst out with great fighting spirit and fight with the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, but they did not pursue, and the soldiers who finally broke away from the battlefield could not turn around and continue to fight, he didn't know what he was not organizing, this time the battle, he and Su Tiancheng were standing on the same platform, which was different from the last time Zhenghongqi encountered an ambush, at this time, Dai Shan had to admit painfully that he was not as good as Su Tiancheng, even when the Zhenghong Flag was annihilated, Dai Shan did not admit that he was inferior to Su Tiancheng, and now he finally admitted.
