Since ancient times, the so-called killing of 3,000 enemies and self-loss of 800, but the Xia army killed more than 40,000 Mongolian coalition troops at a relatively small cost of 5,000 casualties, and captured more than 3,000 people below the prince, so that the mighty 60,000 Mongolian elite cavalry finally only more than 10,000 people escaped, all the way to the grassland, so it must be an unprecedented victory.

It's just a big victory that is enough to completely establish the victory, so Kuching, the commander of the Xia army, while sending people to take advantage of the victory of this battle to recruit the surrounding prefectures and counties, led the main force of the cavalry army to quietly go south, and directly attacked the back road of the Qing army in Dongchang. Only the Sixth Division of Tao Yuexuan's Army stayed on the front line of Gu'an to rest because it had to take care of the wounded and guard the prisoners.

However, Tao Yue was also a bold man, and did not want to end his Northern Expedition here, he did not have enough military merits, and then mobilized a team of more than 3,000 people from the remnants of the Sixth Division of the Xuanwu Army, with twelve cannons and most of the remaining shells of the division, and went straight to Beijing overnight.

The news of Xia Jun's appearance outside Beijing obviously made many Manchu and Han civil and military officers in the city even more anxious to flee for their lives.

Fearing that the Xia army would take advantage of the opening of a certain gate, Beijing continued to seal the gates, and only the Dongzhi Gate in the northeast corner of the inner city was still open for the Manchurian nobles to escape. It was only because the order in Beijing had collapsed at this time, so the city gate was often blocked by bannermen who were scrambling to flee for their lives. These banner men are very big on weekdays, and they are not convinced by each other when they flee for their lives, so they have to go first, and as a result, no one can escape under the push and push.

However, on the evening of August 13, the blocked city gate was finally cleared, and the imperial guards beat them with big sticks, and all the red and yellow belts made way for the convoy of concubines, elder brothers, and princesses, so that the most noble group of people in the Qing Dynasty were able to flee outside the gate one step ahead of the majority.

There are many reasons why the court and the brothers delayed their journey for two days, such as the lack of carriages, mules and carts and other means of transportation, too many entourages, etc., and naturally the reason why the masters were reluctant to leave behind the gold and silver treasures. Fortunately, the Xia army was not strong enough to storm Beijing's city defense, so they only fired a few cannons from afar, and retreated before the artillery fire of the old flag-making battalions such as the Shenji Battalion, the Jianrui Battalion, and the Forward Battalion returned fire, which made the masters temporarily let go of their hanging hearts.

However, Kangxi heard that the Xia army's forward force was limited, but he came up with a bold idea, so he opened a bounty for sealing the duke and carrying the flag, recruiting the banner soldiers who were still brave and brave, and the palace and the retreat of the brothers were also temporarily suppressed by him, so as not to further shake the morale of the army and the people in Beijing.

Early in the morning of 13 August, more than 5,000 Manchurian soldiers from the battalions of the Guards, Cavalry, Forwards, and Infantry Troops, as well as more than 2,000 people from various prefectures, marched out of Beijing in a noisy manner. Prior to this, the Qing army had already explored the Xia army's station, not far away, but it was actually outside You'anmen, a place where the Qing army could see on the wall of Beijing's outer city.

Although the Qing army of 7,000 people was far more than the Xia army, it was mainly old and weak, and only some of the coats looked like they were quite strong and strong, but they were not in a queue. This is actually understandable, after all, the real elite have been incorporated into the internal and external firearms and the Eight Banners New Army to fight in the south, only those who have the way to stay in the old camp to mingle, and there are even fewer who are willing to go out of the city to fight, most of them are either veterans who are reluctant to fight for the sake of rich rewards, or teenagers who do not know the dangers of war and just want to seek fame immediately.

Not only does the Qing army not look very good at combat power, but its equipment is also in disarray. Some people carry knives, some raise guns, some carry birds, some carry bows and arrows, some have no armor, and some wear cotton armor left by their ancestors - only the Eight Banners Army will wear double cotton armor back then, and now their children and grandchildren wear a single layer and have to remove most of the steel plates inside??????

There is also a shortage of horses in the Qing army, often there are no horses in the cavalry camp, but there are two horses in the infantry camp, but the coats of each province ride a lot of good horses from the main family, but most of them can only use it to travel, and if they really let them impact the Xia army array, they may fall out on their own in the middle of the road.

The Qing army was not without artillery, but the good artillery of the internal and external firearms battalions was brought to the south, leaving behind the city defense artillery weighing several thousand pounds that were difficult to move.

In the face of all kinds of unfavorable circumstances, the king of Doro Shuncheng County, who presided over the battle, also had no rules, but it was Kangxi's order to go to war, and he could only understand the implementation of what he didn't understand.

Out of the city gate, the problem is that you can't kill the Xia army in one go, then you need to form a formation.

The young Xi Bao had been a general of the Yongzheng Emperor in another time and space, but in this time and space he had never led troops - of course, in the past few years, most of the Manchurian princes who had experience in leading troops had passed away, and the rest were dying even if they did not die, so they could only pull out the eldest son to let Xi Bao, who had only read a few military books, take on the heavy task of saving the Qing court - since he had no actual experience, Xi Bao had to follow the "partial division of the army, the number of ten hundred thousand, each with its own control" in the "Sun Wuzi Zhijie" The battalions were lined up separately.

It's a pity that there is also a problem with this, each battalion of the Eight Banners is divided according to the flag, and one battalion has eight commanders, who commands whom. As a last resort, Xibao had no choice but to withdraw his order and distribute troops with flags, and as a result, there were several different battalion leaders in a banner, who had never cooperated with each other in battle, and now they are not even in step with each other.

There was no way, Xibao had to change the organizational plan again, using weapons as the distribution standard, the birds stood together, the bows and arrows belonged to a pile, the horsemen belonged to the horse team, and the rest were counted as infantry teams.

By the time Xibao finally finished dispatching and appointing a temporary commander, it was not early in the day, and the bannermen who had been tossed early in the morning were hungry, and they couldn't go to war without lunch or a nap.

What to do? Cold! At this time, Xibao only asked the Qing army to fight with the Xia army, and any alliance under the city could agree.

As a result, it was almost over in the early days, and a group of rabble slowly approached the camp of the Xia army.

The Xia army had already seen the Qing army go out of the city to invite the attack, and originally watched the other party prepare to fight a difficult defensive battle, but when he saw the virtue of the Qing army, he immediately relieved his heart. Of course, you should be careful, but you have to be careful, what if this is a trick of the Qing army? Therefore, the Xia army was divided into two routes, with twelve foot posts, two artillery posts, and three white guard posts in front of the camp, and the remaining six foot posts, two baggage posts, and three middle base posts were guarded in the camp to use the camp wall to support and meet the front army.

At the beginning of Shen, the cannons on the city wall of Beijing began to roar, and with the help of the cannons, a group of Qing troops immediately added, among which the Qing army horse team dominated by clothing ran to the front. However, in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Division of the Xuanwu Army, who had just experienced the Battle of Gu'an, the Qing Army's horse team was really slow enough, so they were not moved at all. Someone beat the horse, someone reined in the reins, and the horse team was in chaos, and at this time, the strongest people were looking at themselves with the eyes of the dead, and these bloody warriors raised their bows angrily.

The bows and arrows shot from afar, and they didn't hit the Xia army at all, but just planted a lot of weird feather trees on the ground.

Seeing that the bow and arrow failed, the Qing army that rushed forward reached out for the arrow again, and then the Xia army finally moved.

I saw that the Xia army gunners raised their fire and burned at the fire door of the eight-point cannon, and suddenly a puff of gunpowder smoke came out, and then the projectile inside smashed towards the Qing army formation with huge kinetic energy. Seeing the Xia army firing the artillery, the formation of the Qing army was even more chaotic, and many people tried to dodge, but the shells had not yet smashed down, and the sound of the cannons had already startled those BMW who had never been on the battlefield to stomp on their hooves one by one, and dropped several coats directly. As a result, the shell did not hit the target, but the fall from the horse caused dozens of casualties.

Observing the results of the test firing, the Xia army's various guns corrected their trajectory one after another, and then the Qing army began to be unlucky. The only thing to be thankful for is that the Xia army has a limited number of artillery, and there are very few that form ricochets, which allows the bannermen to escape.

But before the Qing troops who had escaped the Xia army's not dense artillery fire were secretly rejoicing, the Xia army's artillery team replaced it with short-range but powerful shotguns. This kind of large-scale killing weapon was sacrificed, and the casualties of the Qing army suddenly skyrocketed, and more importantly, under the deliberate blow of the Xia army, there was a strict disconnect between the front team and the rear team of the Qing army.

It was either the bravest samurai in the Qing army or the young nurturing soldiers who were bent on rushing forward, and they did not even notice that the slick veterans had retreated halfway, nor did they notice that more of their companions had fallen directly in the middle of the sprint.

However, just when victory seemed within reach, the Xia army's dense volley of guns dashed their hopes - even if a few Qing knights were lucky enough to break through the blockade of the Xia army's rifle shells, they were faced with the Xia army's dense sword forest or the more terrifying white soldiers.

When these bravest and most enthusiastic warriors fell, the battle was over without suspense, the panicked veterans and the dizzy wrappers pulled the nurturing soldiers who wanted to rush again, and Xibao fled directly back to the palace, and then joined the army out of the city for the first time.

Kangxi, who received the news of another defeat, could only sigh gloomily, so the retreat of the Qing court continued, and the city of Beijing, which had lost more garrison forces, was one step closer to a complete fall??????
