The commander of the Qing army in Juyong Guan is naturally Dolonga, and the front-line commander is Wendeleksi. Another person who changed the trajectory of his fate because of Liu Xian. For Li Jiashi, Mongolia inlaid with red flags.

When Duolonga returned to Beijing from the northwest, a large number of Han generals under his command stayed in Ganshan, such as Cao Kezhong, Lei Zhengxuan, Tao Maolin, Tan Renfang, etc. These people are Duolong'a's henchmen, each with heavy troops, and several commanders from Gansu and Shaanxi take turns to sit.

But because Duolonga himself also has deep traces of the Hunan army, Cao Kezhong, Lei Zhengwan, Tao Maolin and others also have a strong Hunan army background. Tao Maolin, in particular, is a native of Hunan himself. With the whole army in the world unharmed, this problem is certainly not a problem. But now Liu Xian has raised troops and swept the world, the Hunan Huai and Chu armies have surrendered one after another, although Cao Kezhong, Lei Zhengjuan, Tao Maolin and others have not yet 'mutinied', and they have also worked very hard to resist the attack of the Qin army in Hanzhong, but the Manchus can no longer regard these people's subordinates as their own descendants.

Mu Tushan, Wen Dele Kexi, who followed Duolonga back to Beijing, Shu Liang and others were mostly banner people. Duolong's men rode two armies on foot, the infantry army was many, and the cavalry army was full of Meng, and the leaders of the former were all on the admiral, and the latter was not inferior in the slightest. All of them are the heads of a town in the Eight Banners of the New Army in Beijing, especially Mu Tushan, who is even named the deputy general of the New Army.

Shu Liang took away the main force under Duolong'a, and now the Qing army on the front line of Yongguan is only about 10,000 people. However, Shu Liang left all the heavy firepower at Juyong Pass, although it was far from being comparable to the heavy artillery cluster of the Qin army.

The vanguard of the Qin army entered the south entrance. The large army still stayed in Changping Prefecture. A large number of heavy artillery also stayed in Changping Prefecture. In the era when towing trucks was not invented, artillery pulled only by horsepower traveled much slower than infantry.

The Qin army that arrived at Nankou had 3,000 men. It seems that it is still light infantry. I didn't see a few accompanying cannons. Duolonga didn't think about letting the Qing army give them a head-on blow.

There is a waterhole about seven or eight miles to the northwest of the south mouth, which is the location of the Xiangtan Reservoir in later generations.

At this time, next to the waterfront, more than 2,000 horses were leisurely grazing grass and drinking the cool water on the shore of the waterhole. These horses are the only team of horses that Dorona still holds in his hand at the moment. It was also the remnant of the cavalry that charged with Dolonga during the Battle of Tianjin.

From Xiangtan to the north, turn to the east again. There is a mountain trail that can be used to get to guò. There are also families living in these ravines. The Manmeng family has not been dyed with swords and soldiers in Juyongguan for 200 years, and there are common people in some mountain depressions. It's also quite normal.

These mountaineers made their own way out of a narrow path in the mountains of Juyong Pass, but at this time they became a Qing army horse team, and if things went bad, they could retreat back to a lifeline of Juyong Pass.

Next. Another batch of Qin troops arrived. There are about a thousand people. waited for a batch of heavy trucks, and dragged more than a dozen small cannons. The Qing army horse team continued to silently ambush in Xiangtan. I didn't know that I had already leaked the trace! The reconnaissance brigade of the Qin army had already entered the mountains from Tanyu, considering that it would be possible to cut off the retreat of this banner army in a day or two.

Time turned another day, and another batch of baggage entered the forward troops of the Qin army. But the Qing army horse team is still silent!

It was not until noon on the third day after the vanguard of the Qin army arrived at Nankou that a long queue-like baggage team composed of two or three hundred carriages, escorted by several hundred Qin soldiers, drove unhurriedly from the rear to the front line.

The Qing army horse team finally moved.

Because of the huge scale of this team, because of the weight of this team. Some of the wagons had cannons towed behind them.

What is Juyongguan Qing Army most afraid of Qin Army? Isn't it just a cannon bombardment of the city? After the First Battle of Tianjin, all the Qing troops were apprehensive about the ferocity of the Qin army's artillery fire. Now the horse team sees that the baggage team is not only huge. Even the cannons have been left for more than a dozen or twenty pieces, and when will they stay if they don't do it at this moment?

The sortie of more than 2,000 cavalry was very large. What's more, the terrain to the south of the south entrance is relatively flat. The Qing army's horse team quietly moved from Xiangtan to the Qin army's baggage team, and after leaking the target, they beat their horses forward and strolled forward.

In the baggage team of the Qin army, a thirty-year-old man dressed as a lieutenant stood tall on the roof of a baggage carriage at the head, looked carefully at the direction from which the Qing army horse team had come from, and then jumped off the top in one step, and lay on the ground again, listening carefully to the movement.

This person's name is Xia Changfa, he was born as a horse bandit, and he entered the Beijing Station of the Military Intelligence Department by chance, and now he is the 'guide' of this baggage team!

Xia Changfa has been eating and running for more than ten years, half of which is a horse bandit, and others will have to rest when they ride the same horse for up to 50 miles, but he can run 80 miles or even hundreds of miles faster. Amazing riding! When he is more promising, one of his unique skills is to look at the dust and smoke, listen to the sound, and he can roughly estimate how many people there are in the team three or five miles away.

That's what he's doing now. Without the help of anything, with a pair of ears, he can distinguish the size of the horse team, the speed and direction of the march according to the ground sound, and even guess how much foot power the horse team's war horse still has available.

The colonel's officer, led by the baggage team, put down his binoculars without finding anything, squinted at Xia Changfa, and waited for him to count.

Xia Changfa quickly turned around, "My lord, there is a large group of cavalry from the northwest direction rushing towards this side, with two thousand men and horses facing upward, but no more than two thousand five hundred horsemen. ”

The colonel's face bloomed with a smile. There were more than 2,000 cavalry, no more than 2,500 cavalry, which was exactly the same number as reported by the reconnaissance brigade. This shows that Xia Changfa is really unique, and it also shows that the Qing army horse team is pouring out of the nest and has no backhand.

The results of the reconnaissance team's investigation and the aftermath of the detour are not something that a low-level officer like Xia Changfa can know. It was the Colonel who was only informed after receiving the order to be 'escorted'. Because of this, as soon as Xia Changfa reported the number, the colonel was happy, knowing that Xia Changfa was not nonsense, but the real material.

……

Just as the Xiangtan Qing army's horse team rushed out, the rumbling cannons and dense gunfire at the south entrance also rang out. Dolonga was very prescient, and after observing the heavy baggage troops of the brigade, he expected that the horse team might initiate action, so he commanded his troops to launch a feint attack on the Qin army outside the southern entrance, and kept them from moving.

The artillery bombardment of the Qing army was quite fierce, as if the Qing artillery, which had no backup, was about to wipe out all their shell stocks. The Qin army's forward positions were greatly damaged, and the individual bunkers and shallow trenches were destroyed beyond recognition by accurate shells. From time to time, another heavy artillery shell exploded on the position, and the position with a radius of more than 10 meters immediately became a hell on earth.

If there were no anti-artillery holes, if the Qin army had only one front, they would have to pay a heavy price in the process of artillery bombardment by the Qing army. It is the current situation, because the artillery force is weaker than the Qing army, and the Qin army is not very comfortable. Some anti-artillery holes were collapsed, and some of them had no time to be rescued, and the soldiers of the Qin Army in one hole were directly suffocated to death.

The Qing army did not retreat lightly, and Duolong's family knew about their own affairs, and they had to deal a heavy blow to the Qin army in order to let Juyongguan have more time in their own hands. And what is the whole plan of the Qin army?

The general headquarters in Changping City, Liu Xian is looking forward to being able to kill two birds with one stone.

- Destroy the Qing army's horse team and kill the Qing army's sharp edge!

Give Dorona a hard blow.

In the face of the bombardment of the Qing army's superior artillery fire, the vanguard of the Qin army had to retreat a little, so that Duolonga could gather more strength and even dispatch the main force of infantry to launch a fierce attack! At that time, the artillery fire concealed by the Qin army will be able to exert its might!

Xiang Renyi walked on Chen Jing's right hand, seeing that on the position a few hundred meters away, his brothers had suffered a lot of casualties, and there were constantly troops filling up, and he was subjected to the fierce bombardment of the Qing army's artillery footsteps, his brows kept frowning, frowning, and finally twisted into an obvious Sichuan character.

Chen Jing heard Xiang Renyi's heavy gasp, and his eyes twitched. He turned around and said, "Old Xiang, defensive operations emphasize resilience. We've suffered a lot of casualties now, but you can rest assured that the sacrifices are worth it! When we fight back, the suddenness and strength of the outburst will take back five or ten times the price we are paying now! ”

The best way to deal with the artillery bombardment is to withdraw the main forces from the front-line positions, leaving only small detachments to monitor the movements of the enemy forces on the opposite side. When the shelling ceases and the enemy infantry attacks, the troops of the rear line will be re-entered into the front line and will take position.

But today, in order to lure more Qing infantry out, in order to ensure the suddenness and strength of the counterattack, Chen Jing categorically ordered the front-line troops to enter the anti-artillery holes of the position to take refuge. Some of the soldiers remained in the trenches, and as a result, the losses were not small. At least for the Qin army's usual ratio of losses with the Qing army, this number is definitely very large.

The Qing infantry was crawling forward, and after two tentative attacks were repulsed, the Qing army dispatched about 3,000 infantry troops, and the main direction of attack was the right side of the Qin army's forward position, where a squadron was originally stationed.

The sun pierced the thinning clouds and sprinkled white light on the earth, heralding today's scorching heat. Midsummer has passed, but it's still hot.

"Boom! Boom ......"

The only 105 guns of the Qing army in Juyong Pass opened fire again. Six heart-piercing explosions rang out over the Qin army's position, and six large gaps in the ground set off a rain of dirt.

"Boom! Boom ......"

Another six shells fell on the position, this time closer to the Qin army's position fortress than the last time, and those forts made of iron plates with wood and stones would definitely not be able to stop the bombardment of the 105 guns.

One shot may still hold out, two, three, and the result is that the machine-gun fortress collapsed with a bang.

The Qing army's horse team was only a mile away from the Qin army's 'panicked' baggage team. Fu Kejing pulled out the saber on his waist with a "bell", looked around left and right, and said angrily: "Today's battle is a matter of the survival of Juyong and the survival of my Qing Dynasty. All soldiers must not take half a step back without an order, and those who violate the order will be killed!

There is advance and no retreat, there is death and no life! (To be continued......)
