Chapter 245: Encirclement

After Lu Xiangsheng's military order was handed down, all the troops worked together to dig trenches and repair walls on the spot. There are also eleven people in the ministry, and dozens of officials and guards, standard-bearers, drummers, doctors, and craftsmen in the ministry.

The battalion headquarters also has two teams under its own direct leadership, including 300 people from the battalion headquarters, more than 150 people from the battalion headquarters' artillery team, and nearly 200 guards from various officers of the battalion headquarters. There are also 400 cavalry troops, and 200 cavalry auxiliaries. In addition, Gao Xun led a total of more than 300 troops.

Whether it is a thousand headquarters or a battalion headquarters baggage team, those baggage soldiers can also be equipped with firecrackers to fight, and each cavalry and related auxiliaries are also equipped with firecrackers. There are also the rest of the people in the camp, although those people can fight, but until the last moment, of course Wang Dou will not let them go.

Although the earthen wall defended by Wang Dou was long, due to the many obstacles in the trench ahead, there were not many places for the Qing soldiers to storm through, and Wang Dou believed that Han Zhong's subordinates had enough to deal with it with a few hundred firearms and a few hundred pikemen. Even if the offensive of the Qing soldiers increases, you can slowly add reinforcements yourself.

On the front of Wang Dou, Zhao Zhang's battalion artillery team was arranged, with a total of 15 medium guns of the Buddha Wolf machine, 25 small bronze guns of the Buddha Wolf machine, and 30 tiger squat guns, with unprecedented firepower. The rest of the two thousand artillery teams have five medium guns for each Buddha Wolf machine, ten bronze cannons for small Buddha Wolf machines, and 15 Tiger squat guns. All support to the wings of Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei. Their cavalry battalions each carried only thirty Tiger squat guns, and their firepower was somewhat weak.

Lu Xiangsheng's five Hongyi cannons were also temporarily arranged in front of Wang Dou. In fact, these guns can move quickly, and whichever side needs fire support can be pushed quickly. Now the various battalions of Xuanda are working together, but they are not separated from each other.

In addition to the one hundred or dozens of steps outside the camp, twenty steps outside the tents of the army, a frozen half-man high earthen wall was also built. There was also a lot of empty space between the earthen walls to place artillery and other objects, but no more trenches were dug as the second inner defense line of the Xuanda army.

Around Lu Xiangsheng's Chinese military camp tent, 380 chariots brought by Wang Dou were placed at key points, and the right side of each chariot was also inserted with a protective tag. As the last fortified city. In the tent, there are many fires and a large amount of hot water prepared as a place for the wounded. A lot of important substances are also stored here.

After a tiring afternoon, everyone was also tired, Lu Xiangsheng ordered the whole army to make a fire to make food, and soon the smoke curled from all over the camp of the defense line, and laughter continued to sound. There is plenty of food and grass in the army, as well as a large amount of horse meat and dried meat.

In the cold weather, after being tired, eating the hot rice and meat cubes and broth, all the troops were in good spirits, and the noise sounded one after another.

In Wang Dou's big tent of the Chinese army, he also beckoned the officers to have a dinner, and several dwarfs were put together to form a large table, and several pots of boiling horse meat were burning in the fire on the table. The horse meat is cut very thinly, add some old ginger and a little salt, and eat it hot and hot, which is very delicious.

More than a dozen thousand presidents, general managers, and hundreds of general Wen Chixing, Wang Douqin surrounded Xie Yike and others. All the officers are eating and shouting, you fight for me. Everyone's helmets were taken off, and in the middle of winter, many people were covered in sweat.

Bursts of wild laughter kept sounding from the tent, but at this time, it was Han Zhong and Yang Tong arguing, Han Zhong laughed and said: "Old Yang, this guy, he has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, when he was in Huoludun, Lao Zhong wanted the general to plow the fields. What kind of character is the general? Of course not! Lao Yang didn't know how to be interested, and he had to talk a lot on the side. No, Shengsheng was knocked out by the general, if it weren't for Yang's sister-in-law to dissuade and plead, I'm afraid Lao Yang wouldn't be able to sit here today. ”

He said proudly: "It's like my old Han, who was clever back then, and he saw that the general was not an extraordinary person, and he had the heart to serve immediately, so now he has become the president of Qian." Lao Yang, in terms of observing qi and color, you have to learn more from my old Han. ”

In Wang Dou's banquet, there has always been no distinction between rank and inferiority, and Yang Tong and Han Zhong were also brothers of Huo Ludun back then.

Hearing Han Zhong say this, Yang Tong was not to be outdone, and said proudly: "The general's punch is kind, I am in my mouth and warm in my heart...... This -1 doesn't fight and don't know each other, heroes cherish heroes, everyone here, not everyone can let the general knock out his front teeth, right? Yang Tong cracked his mouth, and sure enough, the two front teeth were missing, and he was still smug. Looking at him, everyone laughed wildly again.

Yang Tong and Han Zhong often have this kind of bickering, and the two of them are also very happy to reveal in front of everyone that they and Wang Dou were in Huoludun back then, showing that they are different (). To tell the truth, Han Dynasty, Han Zhong, Yang Tong, Qi Tianliang, Gao Shiyin and others had a relationship with Wang Dou in Huoludun back then, which often made the generals in the army jealous.

Because of this relationship, as long as everyone does not make any big mistakes, their status next to Wang Dou will be like Mount Tai, which is an advantage that the rest of them do not have.

Looking at these two people, Wang Dou shook his head with a smile, these two living treasures. But to be honest, Wang Dou also cherishes his old acquaintance relationship with Han Zhong and others back then, and this kind of memory of sharing hardships and hardships is really precious.

Among the crowd, Gao Xun sat at the end of the table on the right, he laughed with everyone from time to time, Han Zhong, Yang Xiangri's relationship with Wang Dou also made him extremely envious. This is the core of the guerrilla general's sleepy, and perhaps he has to work hard to integrate into this circle.

Just as the people in the tent were shouting happily, they suddenly heard the warning sound of handcuffs outside, and immediately everyone fell silent, and from the eyes of the other party, everyone saw a signal: "The Tartar soldiers are coming." ”

Wang Dou and the others got out of the big tent and came to the open space of the outer defense line. As the warning of the handcuffs sounded continuously, the officers and men of all battalions of Xuanda were alarmed, and 6 generals and sergeants came out of the tent. Lu Xiangsheng, Yang Guozhu and others were also alarmed, and they all walked out of the tent.

Batches of Ming troops rushed back at night, and then the flag-bearers on the Wangpole Diao Dou also sent flags, and there were large groups of Qing cavalry in all directions of the camp.

Then the earth shook faintly, and finally it shook violently, and it seemed that at the same time, at the end of the horizon on all sides, there were flags like oceans. Countless knights of the Qing army galloped wildly, the black pressure was boundless, they let their horses run wildly, and the sound of iron hooves shook everyone's hearts faintly.

Looking at the fluttering sea of flags and the boundless war horses, Wang Douchang took a breath. Look at this frame, there are only a lot more Qing soldiers who came to Julu than in history, how many people did they come? All the Qing soldiers who won't enter the customs are gathered here, right?
