Chapter 327: Where to Surround and Destroy Them

"Report!"

Lu Xiangsheng's personal general, Zhou Siyong, hurriedly ran to Lu Xiangsheng and said: "Governor Lu, General Pang sent someone to report, and found thousands of Tartars in front of him, as if they were going to block our army's way. ”

"What did Mr. Pang say?"

Lu Xiangsheng was not worried about this situation, there were only thousands of Qing soldiers, and he believed that Pang Gang had the ability to deal with it.

Zhou Siyong said solemnly: "General Pang has ordered the vanguard to prepare to touch the enemy, but he also said that he did not have enough cavalry at hand, and asked the governor to send cavalry to assist. ”

"Okay, then send our cavalry over." Lu Xiangsheng has a cavalry team of more than 3,000 people in his hands, which he has worked hard to pull up, and it has always been a pimple in his heart, but now he sent it out without hesitation, which shows that he attaches great importance to Pang Gang.

Just when Lu Xiangsheng was about to send his cavalry to support Pang Gang, the gunfire and shouting in front of him gradually stopped, and Lu Xiangsheng was about to send someone to ask what was going on, but someone in front came to report: "Qi Lu Dudu, the Tartars will withdraw immediately after a little contact with our army, and it seems that they don't want to have a hard fight with our army." ”

"What's going on?" Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, if the Qing soldiers in the past encountered the Ming army, they generally gave the Ming army a random arrow, and then made a decision depending on the situation, if they saw that the Ming army was strong, they slowly retreated, and if the Ming army was weak, it was swallowed in one bite. That's not the style of a Tartar.

"That's right." Seeing the confused appearance of his own governor, Ye Bushu, who came to report it, hurriedly explained: "The commander of the Shicai Pang army used a salvo of bird guns to kill and wound hundreds of Qing soldiers, and the Tartars withdrew in panic. ”

"What? Killed and wounded hundreds of people all at once? Is this true? Lu Xiangsheng was shocked, a salvo can kill and wound hundreds of Qing soldiers, what kind of sharp firearms can this be.

However, then Lu Xiangsheng thought about it again, Pang Gang's gang is purely a firearms unit, there were some pikemen and sword and shield soldiers last time Qin Wang, but now it's good, almost all of them are a bird gun, it seems that he really has a soft spot for firearms, it seems that he is estimated to use thousands of foot soldiers to fire a salvo.

Thinking of this, the surprise in Lu Xiangsheng's heart gradually dissipated, and he waved his hand, signaling the Ye Bu to retreat, and said, "Since the thief chief has retreated, order the army to continue to advance." ”

What Lu Xiangsheng didn't know was that the battle just now might not be a big deal for Pang Gang, but he was frightened by the Qing generals who were ordered to come to attack.

The Qing army that fought with Pang Gang just now was an elite cavalry under Yue Tuo, the general of Yang Wu of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the leader of this cavalry was a Gushan Ezhen, whose name was Hari Chao, who was a confidant under Yue Tuo.

Originally, Harry Chao's task was to stop the advance of this Ming army and test its reality, but when Harry Chao just tried to launch an attack, he found that this was the cowardly Ming army in the past, this is simply a monster! I wanted to take advantage of the other party's defenselessness on the march, and tentatively sent three hundred cavalry to launch an attack, taking advantage of the way, but I didn't expect the other party to give himself a salvo, and immediately beat the attacking men and horses to the back.

Before the three hundred attacking cavalry could get within a hundred paces of the opponent, they were beaten to pieces, and only ran back with less than a hundred.

Harry, who was terrified, dared to charge again, and quickly ordered someone to blow the horn of retreat, and thousands of people retreated to the east.

That night, in a brightly lit camp more than a hundred miles away from the Ming army, Yue Tuo and Dolgon, who had arrived to join him a few days earlier, were discussing the military situation. In front of them, Harry Chao, who was frightened and fled by Pang Gang today, was standing in front of the two of them with his head down.

"Harry Chao, are you sure you're not mistaken, all the soldiers and horses you met today are armed with firearms, and they are extremely sharp?" Yue Tuo's fierce eyes stared at Harry Chao with sharp eyes.

"Lord Belle, the slave is indeed not mistaken, as soon as the villain contacted them today, the other party's firearms crackled, and one of the minions' cattle was knocked out at once, and the losses were too great, and the minions couldn't see it well, so they ordered the withdrawal of troops and rushed to report to you."

Yue Tuo and Dolgon glanced at each other, and the two of them asked at the same time, "Is the other party playing the Pang Zi Banner?" ”

"Exactly!" Harry Chao hurriedly said: "The other party is playing the Pang Zi Banner, and there are also a few big characters in Qingzhou, Shandong!" ”

"Pang Gang, why is it Pang Gang again!" Yue Tuo patted his head with his hand in some pain.

Now, no one knows about Pang Gang, who is a person in the entire Qing Dynasty, and after the story of the massacre in Liaodong, he is no different from a man-eating demon in the hearts of the Manchurians. A few years ago, although Emperor Taiji saw through Pang Gang's plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and did not return to Liaodong, the loss of more than 20,000 soldiers and nearly 30,000 soldiers and civilians was a real huge loss.

When the news spread to the various armies, almost all the banner owners and generals were boiling, thinking that they had suffered such a big loss in the Qing Dynasty, and they were rushed into the lair to burn and kill and plunder and then calmly left, but they had no way at all, if it weren't for the prestige of Huang Taiji was too high, I am afraid that they would have been unable to suppress it for a long time.

Now that this demonic force had reappeared in front of their eyes, Yue Tuo and his generals were all shocked.

Yue Tuo's mental quality was indeed good, and after being shocked for a moment, he immediately said to Dolgon: "Prince Rui, now that Pang Gang has appeared in front of us, what do you say we should do?" ”

Without hesitation, Dorgon said, "What else can I do?" One word, type! If Pang Gang is not removed, our Great Qing Kingdom will never be peaceful! ”

"Yes, hit!"

"Avenge the death of our people!"

All the generals in the big tent were boiling, clamoring one by one to avenge the clansmen of Liaodong.

Yue Tuo silently analyzed it in his heart and said to Dolgon: "Prince Rui, if we want to fight, we can have a good total, according to the report of the spies, now after the two armies meet, there are still more than 70,000 horses, and the Ming army is only more than 20,000 and less than 30,000, so I think it can be surrounded by superior forces, and then annihilated in one fell swoop." ”

Dolgon asked quietly, "Oh, dare to ask the general, where is it more appropriate for us to encircle and annihilate the Ming army?" ”

Yue Tuo walked to the map with a look on his face, pointed to a piece of ground and said, "This is it, giant deer!" ”
