Chapter 463: Out of the Battle
I have to admit that compared with the children of the Eight Banners in the late Qing Dynasty, who could only walk birds and dogs, the military literacy of the Eight Banners in the Chongzhen year was still quite high. There is a saying that "10,000 people are boundless", let alone 70,000 people at the same time?
In addition to the slight chaos of the Han Eight Banners, the Qing army quickly entered the battle formation with 30,000 people in the Eight Banners. Under Shang Kexi's urging, the Han Eight Banners did not drop the chain for too long, and the formation was only a quarter of an hour later than the Jurchens.
The Tuanshan Army is divided into three major blocks, the left, the center and the right are distributed in the shape of "inverted pins", the left and right wings are prominent, and the central army is slightly behind. And the Qing army also fought-for-tat, dividing the 70,000-strong army into three groups, corresponding one by one - Dolgon in the center, Duoduo on the left flank, and Shang Kexi on the right flank.
Rao is Dolgon's battle-hardened formation, and when he saw the formation of the Tuanshan army, he couldn't help but be a little moved—this Tuanshan army was probably even more difficult to deal with than a year ago!
However, since Dorgon is the commander of the first army, he will never show the slightest timidity.
"I have risen in Liaodong for decades in the Qing Dynasty, and the prosperity of the army is rare, and the regimental mountain army was only a small victory in the past, and today it is a frontal field battle of 30,000 regimental mountain troops with an army of 70,000, including 30,000 full eight banners, and the fifteenth brother does not need to worry about it!"
The cultivation skills of Duoduo beside Dolgon were not as good as him, and his face was already a little pale at the moment, so Dolgon spoke to appease him.
Duoduo bowed his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The fourteenth brother has learned a lesson, and the younger brother has lost some of his temper—"
Obviously, whether Dolgon believes it or not, "I Daqing" can crush the Tuanshan army, anyway, at this moment Duoduo believes it.
……
Outside the two armies, there was also a force hiding on a high post to watch the battle. However, there are only more than ten people, and they are under the strict supervision of the military law team of the Tuanshan Army.
The Great War of the Ming and Qing Dynasties - Hmm. Zhang Zhang did not establish himself as the king, and naturally carried out such a large-scale war in the Korean country under the banner of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, the Korean king Yi Liang also sent a team of envoys to watch the battle.
To put it bluntly, that is, to see who wins and who loses between the Qing army and the Tuanshan army, to put it more bluntly, who has thicker leg hair and is more worthy of hugging.
Previously, because the king of Joseon, Yi Liang, was not "friendly" to "my Qing Dynasty", he caused a large-scale invasion of the Qing army. After Li Liang was slapped in the face, he didn't find a way to go to Huang Taiji to intercede - the silver he gave to Fan Wencheng alone was 200,000 taels.
However, this time, Huang Taiji seems to be determined to destroy the Korean state, even if Fan Wencheng goes to say that it is not easy to do it. Fortunately, "Jurchen Zhuge Liang" always has a high status in Huang Taiji's heart. To put it mildly, Huang Taiji agreed to the surrender conditions of the Korean State - Li Liang abdicated, and the Qing State succeeded a Belle Lord to be the king in the past!
This Nima is equivalent to cutting off the incense of the Korean state, which is not much stronger than destroying the country. It is clear that the Joseon king, Yi Jung, was unwilling to agree to such harsh conditions. But if the Ming army that came to the rescue was defeated by the Qing army, in order to save his own life, Li Liang couldn't say what his opinion would be even if the Qing State sent a pig to be the king.
At the moment, the most nervous in this battle in Guangluyuan is not the Qing army. It is not the Tuanshan Army, but the Korean National ......
As time passed, more than 100,000 troops were gathered on both sides of the entire Guangluyuan, and the footsteps of the Qing army were suffocating. In terms of numbers, it is obvious that the Qing army is more than twice the size of the Tuanshan army, which can be seen from the size of the formation of the two sides.
However, the Tuanshan Army has been around since its inception. It has always been a small number of people, and the soldiers do not have any superfluous ideas about the comparison of numbers. All they could think of in their minds at the moment were the rules and regulations of the instructors on the training ground—when to do something, which had been deeply engraved in the minds of every regimental mountain soldier.
The Qing army has been formed. Dolgon looked at the immovable Tuanshan army, and unconsciously felt a little worried in his heart. He bit his lip stubbornly, and after trying to calm down his mood, he said coldly to the herald: "Pass on the king's order, let Shang Kexi come out!" ”
"Zha-" the herald replied in a hurry, not forgetting to strike a thousand, then turned on his horse and galloped away—the formation of 70,000 men was quite wide, and Dorgon's central army was more than a mile away from the still satisfactory right flank in a straight line.
When the herald conveyed the attack order issued by Prince Rui Dolgon to Shang Kexi, the 10,000 grass and mud horses in the heart of the "King Zhishun" were crumbling. However, in just a short moment, this "prince" accepted the reality of being cannon fodder. This is also something that you can know with your ass, which time did the Manchu masters charge first?
After Shang Kexi gathered his thoughts, he shouted loudly to his subordinates: "Beat the drums, march!" ”
In a moment, accompanied by the huge drum sound of "dong dong dong", the 10,000 pioneers of the Shang Kexi division on the right wing of the Qing army began to slowly attack the Tuanshan army.
Shang Kexi's department was facing the left wing of the Tuanshan Army - the 10,000 people on the left flank were under the command of Pan Batian, because the Tuanshan Army had already conducted a deduction in advance and set a countermeasure in various situations. Of course, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the plan can never catch up with the changes, but the first wave of the offensive is a traitor and two Tartars to test it, but it is guessed by tension to be ten out of ten. Therefore, Pan Batian did not have to wait for tension to give an order, and directly according to the battle plan, he also sent 5,000 people to fight against each other.
On the battlefield, the most taboo is the rush of swarms, especially in this kind of large army operations, the tasks that each part of the army needs to complete are carefully calculated. Don't look at the fact that both sides have gathered more than 100,000 troops in Guangluyuan, but they are both elite and strong generals, and their control of the battlefield is not bad. And this first wave of tentative attacks was carried out by 10,000 soldiers under the banner of the Qing army and Han army, and 5,000 soldiers under the command of Pan Batian, the mountain army of the upper regiment.
The drums on both sides came and went, and the Qing army seemed to be more powerful, obviously the advantage in numbers was not only the number of soldiers, but even the number of military bands beating drums was much higher than that of the Tuanshan army.
It's just that the drums urging the pace of progress are almost deaf to the soldiers on both sides who are about to fight, and it seems that they are completely inaudible. They only had the enemy in their eyes, and the only sound in their ears was the heavy breathing of their comrades, and their hearing had deteriorated somewhat.
Like all infantry charges in this era, the first platoon on both sides was still infantry carrying huge shields to cover, and these people were naturally young and strong.
Seeing that the distance between the two forwards was getting closer and closer, the eyes of the remaining soldiers on the battlefield who had not yet fought widened, praying in their hearts that their side could win the first battle. A heavy sense of suffocation once again enveloped the entire Guanglu Plain, enveloping the 100,000 troops of both sides who were fighting in array.
Zhang Li was still sitting on the marching bench on the small mound, calmly observing the situation on the battlefield. The small mound was not particularly high, just a little more than a foot above the ground, and a huge log had been erected around the mound as a fence barrier, which was evident to protect against the Jiannu artillery.
