Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Battle of Man Gui to the Death

On this day, tens of thousands of troops in the Later Jin Dynasty, tens of thousands of troops in the Ming army and tens of thousands of Qin Wang's troops were recruited by the Beijing camp and Lu Xiangsheng. The total number of troops participating in the battle has reached more than 200,000 in the www.biquge.info, which is the largest number of troops invested by both sides in the Mingjin War for many years, except for the battle of Salxu.

However, unlike the battle of Sarxu, the situation on both sides has been reversed at this time. The elite of the Ming army in various provinces has become the army that lacks battle formations and has not been trained for a long time, and the heroism of the Ming army in the past has also become the sadness of being under the city by the Jiannu soldiers now.

Xiao Yi held the Qi family's knife and watched the Houjin army rush towards Hou Shilu and Man Gui's camp like a tide, and he was also excited. Standing at such a high head of Beijing, Xiao Yi looked at the distant Houjin cavalry under the city as if looking at a bunch of black spots, dense.

When Xiao Yi first saw Beijing City yesterday, he was immediately attracted by Beijing City, which is majestic, magnificent, and tall and has been the best he has seen in his life. At this time, Xiao Yi knew that the cities he had seen before, such as Daankou and even Dongsheng Acropolis, were all compared to the flame of the candle and the light of the bright moon.

Since then, Xiao Yi has made up his mind that such a majestic and magnificent Han city is simply the crystallization of Chinese civilization for thousands of years, and it must not be destroyed by this barbarian in the slightest. Even if it is not destruction, in Xiao Yi's eyes, although the Ming Dynasty is running out of oil, the Celestial Empire is still the Celestial Empire, which cannot be compared with the barbarians of the Jurchens.

The dynasty of the Han people will definitely not be occupied by this barbarian.

While he was thinking about it, Huang Taiji personally led the Great Bel Dai Shan, Bel Zir Harang, Yue Xu, Du Du, Sakhalian and others to lead the four banners on the right wing of Manchuria, as well as the Mongol soldiers on the right flank, and launched a fierce attack on the troops of Mangui and Hou Shilu.

Xiao also saw that Hou Shilu's camp was almost instantly destroyed, and the Mongolian cavalry and Houjin cavalry of Jierharang, Yue Xu, and Azig rushed into the camp and slashed and slashed.

Hou Shilu was inside the big tent, brandishing his saber and yelling, "Quick! Assemble your entire army to defend against the enemy! Don't run away! A general behind him protected Hou Shilu and said, "General! Withdraw! The Tartars' attack is too fierce for the brethren to withstand! ”

Hou Shilu yelled unwillingly, "Fuck you, you lost the fight just now?" I don't believe it! I was going to take my standard camp to press, who dared to run away and kill on the spot! ”

During the conversation, a standard battalion soldier suddenly broke into the big tent, only to see that the soldier's face was even stained with blood, and the excellent iron armor of the standard battalion was already covered with cut marks. "General, quickly retreat, Azig's offensive is too fierce, we can't stop it for long."

Hou Shilu walked out of the big tent quickly, and the scenery he saw made him unforgettable in his life, and the Houjin Mongol cavalry all over the mountains rushed with a whining and screaming, and it only took a moment to break through the defense line they had carefully set up. Entering one's own camp is almost like entering a no-man's land, cutting people when they meet them, killing people when they see them, and no one can stop them from slashing together.

That Azig was even more red-eyed, this is the Ming Dog, this is happy, Azig seems to have forgotten that when he was played by Xiao Yi, he returned to his previous style of being brave and good at fighting, and rushed forward alone, looking at Azig's appearance, no one dared to resist at all, and they all fled. Huang Taiji, who was on the top of the mountain, looked at Azig's performance and nodded slowly.

In fact, except for Hou Shilu's standard battalion, basically no one dared to fight with the Houjin soldiers and horses, most of them were soldiers who had never been on the battlefield, and when they saw the Houjin cavalry rushing over all over the mountains, they were already frightened. Hou Shilu brought a whole 50,000 troops, but he still refused to defend in the camp, and he couldn't even resist a charge from Azig, and with just one charge, the left flank of the Qinwang coalition army outside the Desheng Gate was defeated.

Now the mountains are full of Houjin's cavalry chasing and killing Hou Shilu's rout, and even many people have crossed the moat and run to the Desheng Gate, crying miserably and begging the generals of the Beijing camp to open the door for them. But when the people in Beijing saw that Houjin soldiers were so wolf-like, they couldn't dodge, so how could they open the door to save people.

Hou Shilu looked at the Houjin cavalry who was getting closer and closer to his big tent, and he seemed to be able to see the two ugly braids behind the Houjin cavalry's head. Frightened, he didn't care about anything else, glanced at the Mangui camp that had not yet been breached, and said sorry in his heart, and yelled, "Withdraw!" Remove! The whole army retreats! Come on! ”

To say that it is a retreat is actually the beginning of a larger total rout. Hou Shilu's people were originally just some people who fled, and there were still many people who stubbornly resisted the Houjin soldiers, but Hou Shilu dealt a heavy blow to his military morale with the retreat of his own standard battalion.

The main general and his cronies have all fled, and we are still fighting here to fight and flee one after another. When Man Gui, who was in the camp, learned the news that Hou Shilu had actually been defeated, he hated Azig, Yue Zhen and others who were looking at the rise of the killing. Immediately took the case, walked out of the account, and shouted at the confused officers and soldiers outside, "Soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy!" Kill the Tartars! Then he led his battalion to advance bravely, and actually rushed in the direction of the Tartars.

The officers and soldiers seem to have found the backbone of the main body, the main generals are so brave and so pioneering, as soldiers, they should fight bravely to kill the enemy, let alone in the Beijing Division!

The Mangui army was like a rock in the sea, standing still under the impact of the Houjin Iron Cavalry. Azig also noticed the last resistance outside the Desheng Gate, and he didn't think too much about the rise of the killing, so he roared and led the cavalry behind him to collide with the Mangui army.

Suddenly, the shouts of killing were endless, wave after wave.

Xiao Yi, who was on the city wall, was already clenching his knife grip and gurgling, and Shi Gang and Wang Dahu were even more anxious to jump down and join the battle. Xiao Yi slapped the city wall angrily, and set off to find Lu Xiangsheng to ask for battle, but was rejected by Lu Xiangsheng, Xiao Yi only then realized that he had just been reckless! If the city gate is opened at this time to aid the Mangui army, the Houjin cavalry will take advantage of the situation to attack the city, and these Beijing camps with only superficial kung fu will definitely not be able to stop them.

"Quick, let's go!" Xiao Yi suddenly heard a shout in a thin voice. Xiao Yi looked at it, but it was Wang Zhe, the eunuch of the prison army, and he was suddenly full of boredom, but he couldn't show it, these eunuchs had a lot of energy! This Wang Zhe was urging the soldiers of the Beijing camp to open fire at this time, and the soldiers were at a loss. Lu Xiangsheng comforted here, "Father-in-law, firing the cannon at this moment is only afraid that it will accidentally injure the Qin Wang army and chill the hearts of his army!" ”

But that Wang Zhe didn't care so much, of course, maybe this eunuch might not understand anything. just scolded loudly, "If you don't fire the cannons, in case the Tartar siege is broken, who of you can afford such a crime!" Even Lu Xiangsheng didn't dare to say anything when this hat was buttoned down, and the Beijing camp guard nodded helplessly, let's shoot!

Suddenly, the artillery on the city wall fired a volley, and there were many Jin soldiers after hitting, but there were also many Qin Wang soldiers who were injured by mistake. The army of King Qin, including the defeated He Mangui army, was already mixed with the Later Jin soldiers and Mongolian soldiers at this time. Originally, the formation of the Mangui army was not chaotic, but unexpectedly, a cannon shot came from the head of his own city, disrupting the formation and injuring many officers and soldiers.

The advantage of the original formation was gone, Man Gui looked at the somewhat defeated troops, raised his long knife, stepped on the war horse, and shouted, "Soldiers! Kill the enemy army with me, kill! ”

Some panicked officers and soldiers found the main general again and rushed to kill under the leadership of Man Gui. However, although Mangui's move inspired the officers and soldiers, it also made himself deeply encircled, and the Later Jin soldiers and Mongolian soldiers all fought bravely to kill Mangui and use his head to do their own military exploits.

The shouting and killing outside the city lasted for a few hours, the Mangui army was already dead and wounded, and even Mangui himself was wounded in many places, Mangui looked at the increasingly unfavorable battlefield situation, resented, cut down a Mongolian Tartar, roared to break through, and led the troops to break through to the Guandi Temple not far away to rest, but there were only more than 100 remnants left.

Xiao Yi and the others saw all this, but they were like they had just come to Xiaohuangzhuang, they could only watch and did nothing! I've worked hard for so long, but I'm still so mediocre.

Xiao Yi lowered his head a little discouraged, but saw the Qi family knife that was standing on the city wall by himself. No matter when, this Qi family knife is covered with traces of battle, looking at this Qi family knife. After glancing at Huang Taiji's tent in the distance on the hillside, Xiao Yi's confidence was regenerated, and Man Gui withdrew. So good, just let yourself come!

When the combined forces of Mangui and Hou Shilu and the Huang Taiji army were in close combat, the sound of killing outside the Guangqu Gate was also shocking. It's just that the contrast in strength over there is even greater, and it is the Guanning Iron Cavalry led by Yuan Chonghuan with 9,000 against the tens of thousands of Eight Banners Mongolian coalition led by Mang Gurtai.

With such a huge disparity in strength, almost everyone thought that Yuan Chonghuan was bound to lose. Because after the frontal field battle of the Ming army, Jin almost did not have an example of victory, let alone in the case of such a disparity in strength.

But Xiao Yi is not, he knows. Yuan Chonghuan and his Guanning Iron Cavalry created a miracle under the Guangqu Gate, a miracle that no one can compare.
