Chapter 455: Rescue

This news was so shocking that Hong Chengchou, Zhang Ruoqi, and Wang Chengen were all trembling, and they no longer had the calm and composure they used to have. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Only Wang Dou groaned in his heart, compared to the officers and generals of the Chinese army, he was the person who knew the most detailed battlefield information.

After all, the Jingbian Army did not collect outstanding troops at night, and the sentinels and cavalry were scattered in all directions, gathering information from all sides in a steady stream.

It's just that Bai Guangen's situation is too surprising, and he often doesn't collect the latest battlefield intelligence until he reports it at night, and the new wave of war situation changes, and each wave of war is very different. The successive close defeats in his army are also unbelievable.

Even Wang Dou couldn't believe that Bai Guangen would lose so quickly and so miserably. As far as he knows, although Bai Guangen is arrogant, his subordinates still have combat effectiveness, how can he let Qing Qi break through in one round? So many tanks and Francophone guns, all vegetarian?

Moreover, Wu Sangui is not far away, there are a lot of soldiers and horses on both sides, and it is even more difficult to defeat if they cooperate with each other to rescue, how can this be?

He only let the night not collect the details and probe again, but the latest news, Bai Guangen, the chief soldier of Jizhen Town, was indeed killed in battle.

His subordinates are all in ink, but most of the barracks in Jizhen are still there. Together with the people who dug trenches, a mighty wave of rout was formed, and under the drive of the Qing army, they fled in the direction of the Chinese army and Yang Guozhu.

Wang Dou was speechless, Hong Chengchou and the others were pale, the battle of Songjin had just begun, and they killed a general soldier in battle? How do they explain to the saint and the government and the opposition who are eagerly awaiting?

Everyone looked to the southeast, and through the hills and low ridges, they faintly heard the sound of crying. I saw the dense small black dots on the field, which were countless fleeing people, all over the mountains, and the number was not clear.

Seeing their rout, everyone in the Chinese army gritted their teeth, such a tragic rout, what a shame!

The Jingbian army gritted their teeth even more, deeply hating the scene in front of them!

Wang Dou exhaled deeply, he overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, such a family system to fight a war is far from meeting the needs of this era. After all, because of their own reasons, the Qing soldiers have made great changes compared to history, and the ordinary Ming army has no advantage against them.

Historically, the battle of Songshan was fought in the early stage, but in fact, there were fewer Qing soldiers, 1, 200,000 troops, 40,000 or 50,000 Qing troops, although a small advantage, but the overall stalemate. However, after Huang Taiji supported the whole country and the forces of the two sides were equal, the connection between Songxing was quickly cut off, and the Ming army was defeated.

At present, the overall strength of the Ming army has not increased much, and the Qing army has more powerful firearms, even if the Eight Banners have been damaged a lot after Chongzhen's eleventh year, this strength comparison is not easy to say. After all, now that the forces of both sides are the same, the military strength at the disposal of the Qing army is becoming more and more sufficient.

And according to Wang Dou's knowledge, the defeat of Bai Guangen's army was also due to the defeat of several car battalions. Those soldiers and ruffians, with powerful equipment and firepower in their hands, still collapsed at the touch of a button, and even affected the main barracks behind, Bai Guangen actually fought hard.

Although Wang Dou did not have a good impression of Bai Guangen himself, he still maintained respect for his martyrdom.

The soldiers and ruffians are not allowed to have oil, and the family is not wanted, Wang Dou is even more determined to have such an idea.

At this time, Zhang Ruoqi no longer had the previous high spirit, and the scene in front of him had a great impact on him, he was originally a literati, and when the cruel side of the battlefield was displayed in front of him, he was at a loss. He subconsciously approached Wang Dou a little closer, and said in a trembling voice: "Uncle Zhongyong...... This, how can this be good? ā€

Although Hong Chengchou was frightened and angry, after all, he had been in war for a long time and had served as a supervisor for many years, so he quickly calmed down. He said to Wang Dou: "Loyal and brave uncle, the Chinese army needs to be rescued immediately, and the rout must not be allowed to storm the Chinese army's big array, let alone affect Yang Shuai and Li Shuai, who are attacking the mountain!" ā€ā€¦,

Wang Dou nodded, although the Qing soldiers at the moment, although they attacked the soldiers and horses on each wing, they were still tentative. If they are allowed to defeat all the troops one by one, they think that the Ming army is vulnerable, and the consequences of the future Songjin war will be unimaginable.

The top priority at the moment is to protect Yang Guozhu's flank first, prevent the rout, and affect the Loess Ridge battle with Yang Guozhu and others with the Qing cavalry that followed.

The Loess Ridge cannot be given up, and it needs to be fought tightly to quickly conquer the Loess Ridge. In this way, it will not affect the overall strategic layout of the Ming army, and the adverse impact of Bai Guangen's death due to the rout of Jizhen's troops can be minimized.

Hong Chengchou is still a soldier and is qualified as a coach, he quickly calmed down and keenly pointed out this, Wang Dou agreed very much.

However, Hong Chengchou did not mention Wu Sangui's department on the front line, obviously still confident in its combat strength. In fact, Wang Dou knew that although the Qing army was attacking, Wu Sangui's army was not chaotic, and sure enough, the famous figures in history had their own uniqueness.

……

At this time, Yang Guozhu under the Loess Ridge also noticed that Bai Guangen's rout was coming, and towards the southeast, the cavalry and cavalry were arranged in an arc, and the battle of the Loess Ridge was still going on.

The battle-soaked generals are different, although they are not panicked, they quickly make reasonable and rapid response arrangements.

Only the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were in a commotion, and Fu Yingchong tried his best to suppress them, so that they could settle down.

Hong Chengchou looked left and right, sighed, and said solemnly to Wang Dou: "Uncle Zhongyong, the front is critical, and you need to go out to turn the tide and defeat the enemy!" ā€

Hong Chengchou said solemnly to Wang Dou, and gave a deep salute. All the officers and generals beside him, along with the overseers, also saluted Wang Dou.

Wang Dou also saluted: "You are very respectful, Dou is also a Ming official, you should do your best to repel the Tartars and protect the safety of the army!" ā€

At this time, there were still more than 30,000 soldiers in the Chinese army, including more than 13,000 soldiers in Wang Doujing's border army.

However, Zuo Guangxian, the general army of the reinforcement and suppression, had less than 10,000 soldiers, Hong Chengchou's standard battalion was less than 3,000 people, and the standard battalion of the local governor and soldiers was mostly a few hundred or more than a thousand people.

There were also some local officials and generals in Liaodong, such as Qian Youlu, the general of the right battalion of the forward, and Dou Chenglie, the general of the general patrol and meritorious service, who accompanied the battle.

As for the local people in Songshan, in addition to the city garrison Shang Yudi, the city guard camped and attacked Ge Chaozhong to stay in the castle. Songshan Deputy General Xia Chengde, Songshan Youying General Liu Zhengjie, Songshan Staff General Fan Chenggong and other soldiers and horses were also pulled out.

Although they have a large number of troops, most of them are one battalion or two thousand men and horses, so the total number of these generals, deputy generals, guerrillas, and so on is only more than 10,000 people.

There are still a large number of people in the position of the Chinese army, of course, they are not included in the scope of combat power.

According to the sentry cavalry, there were more than 20,000 Qing cavalry a few miles to the southeast, and their combat power was extraordinary, especially when they had just defeated the Jizhen army and the various departments of the Chinese army were worried. This can fight a tough battle, plug the gap in the flanks, and rescue Wu Sangui's men and horses in front, and if you calculate it, you can only fight Wang Dou.

It is that all officials and generals, subconsciously in their hearts, do not want Wang Dou to make meritorious contributions, and have to let him go.

At this time, his Jingbian army had more than 13,000 soldiers, including two cavalry battalions, a cavalry battalion with a total of more than 10,000 people, an artillery battalion with 2,000 people, and a sentry battalion and a guard battalion with a total of 1,000 people.

In addition to the more than 2,000 people left behind in Changling Mountain, Sun Sanjie's baggage battalion also had 2,000 people who followed Wang Dou to Songshan, constantly transporting heavy grain and grass back and forth.

Most of them stayed in the camp, and there were only 400 men in the inner grenadier team, and at this time, there were still hundreds of people in the Jingbian army, who were responsible for pushing the chariots.

Although there were more than 20,000 Qing cavalry, Wang Dou was not afraid, and there were 10,000 thousands of men and horses in front of Wu Sangui's large array, and there were nearly 30,000 people on his own side by then.

Even if Wu Sangui did not cooperate closely at that time, Wang Dou was confident and repelled the enemy alone. …,

Everyone urgently discussed, and Wang Dou led the entire army of the Jingbian Army to the southeast.

According to the information that Wang Dou knows, Wang Pu is worry-free, and if he protects the flanks, Yang Guozhu and Li Fuming are also worry-free. As for the Ma Ke and Tang Tong troops to the west of Songshan Fort, although their combat strength is worrying, they can also retreat to the camp if they are the worst.

The Ming army camps around Songshan Fort also left some soldiers and horses in each town, and they may not be able to fight in the field, but there is no problem in defending the city and guarding the wall.

It was not so easy for the Qing army to bypass the dense camp and attack the east of Songshan Fort.

Wang Dou and Hong Chengchou meant that they were both fierce tigers fighting rabbits, and they used all the powerful Jingbian troops to deal a heavy blow to the Qing cavalry in the southeast. It is best to kill a few enemy generals, so as to boost the morale of the somewhat decadent army.

Everyone also agreed that when the gap was plugged and the battle was settled, Cai Maode, who was prepared by the army, led a large number of people to come up and continue to dig trenches.

The connection between the thieves and slaves between the Loess Ridge and the Songshan Ridge must be cut off.

At the same time, there were also some people pushing hundreds of earthen carts, accompanying Wang Douzhong's army, if the Tartars used artillery, they could also use emergency protection.

Yang Guozhu's army does not need to expand the results for the time being, it only needs to capture the first line of defense in the Loess Ridge and stabilize the position.

The Shanxi General Li Fuming Department stepped up the offensive to put the greatest pressure on the Qing army in Loess Ridge.

After Hong Chengchou and the others agreed with Wang Dou, they all felt that their hearts had settled down, maybe Wang Dou was here, giving them a faint reliance.

At the same time, the Jingbian Army attacked, and all the officers and generals of the Chinese army were a little moved.

The powerful Wang Doujun will definitely win a lot when he goes out, right?

If you are in the army, you will have a lot of credit without much effort.

Zhang Ruoqi, the prison guard, first made a generous statement: "The thief and slave are crazy, as a prison soldier, how can he sit in the back and around?" When you follow the loyal and brave uncle, fight the thief with one heart...... Even if you are weak in your own position, you must not fight and kill the slaves and thieves with your own hands, and you should also beat the drums and cheer for the army! ā€

At his strong request, Wang Dou and Hong Chengchou both agreed to follow him.

In fact, Zhang Ruoqi's subordinates only have less than 100 people, and the reason why he can call the wind and rain in Liaodong is because of Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the military department, and the emperor's tiger skin.

The opportunity for the civilian officials to attack with them was robbed by Zhang Ruoqi, and the position of the Chinese army also sounded the noise of the generals who wanted to compete for the opportunity to fight, and Hong Chengchou denied them one by one.

Then Fu Yingchong, the deputy general of the former battalion of the Shenji Battalion, hurried over, wanting to lead the army and go out with the loyal and brave uncle.

Because Yang Guozhu's army attacked the first line of defense in Loess Ridge and was not in a hurry to expand the results of the battle, the artillery of his Shenji Battalion rested, and the Shenji Battalion gunners in the battalion had nothing to do. Hearing that the Jingbian Army was attacking, they were all extremely excited, and they wanted to follow the battle and fight for military merits! (To be continued.)
