Chapter Seventy-Six: Heroes Sympathize
Outside Gaoyang City, the Qing army roaring and tsunami hit the already overburdened city wall of Gaoyang City like a tide, every time the offensive of Lang is as high as a Lang, Sun Chengzong's heart will be tightened, the Qing army's offensive rhythm after the siege is obviously different from before, and it was still a little frustrated before retreating, mainly to preserve strength. And this time, not only the Han Army Banner, but even the Eight Banners were desperate, almost at any cost.
The Qing army's key offensive was set in Nancheng, and the defense of Gaoyang City was also focused on Nancheng. This is the only section of the wall that has not been renovated, and it is densely packed with ladders. Driven by the leaders of each battalion, the Qing army climbed up lifelessly, crackled like dumplings and fell down the city along the overturned ladder.
On several occasions, the Qing army even occupied a small section of the city wall on the southern wall of Gaoyang, and the city defenders failed to capture it after several efforts, and finally it was Zhang Shi, who was the last reserve, with a musket team, that the Qing armor soldiers who climbed to the top of the city were knocked down from the city wall.
The sky is getting darker, and the north wind is getting cooler. The sound of gold and iron striking resounded over the battlefield, and the Qing army's day's business was finally over, and a large number of armored soldiers rolled back to the camp like a low tide.
The old man in the city sighed softly, if the day was a little longer, this Gaoyang City might be broken today!
The Qing army camp, the Chinese army tent, Dolgon gathered all the generals, summarized the situation of today's siege battle, discussed how to attack the city tomorrow, and of course, the most important thing is the Dudu army in the south.
Since the Guanning Army, which had been fighting high and diving, was completely annihilated, there was no army in Zhili that could compete with the Qing Iron Cavalry. But the losses were also heavy, Prince Su Haoge was captured alive, and Yue Tuo, the general of the Right Wing Army, was beheaded, and these blows to morale will not change significantly in a short period of time, but after a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no changes. Therefore, the battle of Gaoyang City must be ended as much as possible, and the battle of annihilating Lu Xiangsheng in the south must also be fought as much as possible.
After the death of Yue Tuo, Du Du did not act arbitrarily, but hoped to be under the unified command of Dolgon, and this time the left and right flanks and armies in the north and south directions were unified by Dolgon. Looking at the time, after tonight, the battle of Du Du is about to start, and Lu Xiangsheng's Jia Zhuang actually set up a position, trying to fight to the death, I really don't know whether to live or die.
There is no suspense in capturing Gaoyang City, the only thing to worry about is that Lu Xiangsheng of the Southern Dynasty avoids the enemy and avoids the battle.
Dordor raised this concern.
"If Lu Xiangsheng avoids it and doesn't fight, I'm afraid that Du Du's army will return in vain!"
Many people, including Bai Yintu and so on, nodded in agreement, after the previous battle, although he did not rescue Prince Su Haoge, but Dolgon almost did not pay much to eliminate the Guanning Iron Cavalry, he still greatly appreciated, you must know that the Iron Cavalry of the Qing Dynasty outside the Guanxi did not have a hard time with the Guanning Iron Cavalry, this is an extremely difficult bone to gnaw, I didn't expect it to be completely eliminated in the Guannei.
Until this time, Abatai, who had never had a sense of zài, cleared his throat and interjected.
"Don't worry about this, Lu Xiangsheng wants to avoid the war, and the Ming Dynasty monarchs and ministers drove him to face the war, and this time the Nanban surnamed Lu has no way to retreat."
Is there really no way back?
Yang Tinglin looked at the lonely back not far away, and read Lu Xiangsheng's words to himself in his heart. However, as the head of the Ministry of War, he has not had the time to be sentimental here in vain, there are too many things waiting for him, and the military rations that should have arrived three days ago have not arrived today, what has happened? Seeing that the military rations are about to run out, the 5,000 army is screaming with hunger, where will they have the strength to fight with the Tartars when the time comes, I am afraid that they will have to collapse by themselves because of the lack of food.
Jiazhuang this place did not suffer from the Tartar robbery, although many of the people went east to Shandong for refuge, but there are still many people left behind, and the autumn harvest has just passed, it is a lot of grain storage, if it can be raised in a few large households, it should be able to solve the urgent need.
After Yang Tinglin sighed a few times, he lowered his head and hurried away.
Of course, Lu Xiangsheng not far away is not sentimental in vain, the terrain here is quite high, and the place a few miles away may be the best place for a war.
Most of Lu Xiangsheng's troops were infantry, and they would definitely not be able to defeat the Qing army in a sports war. So the best way is to choose a great terrain and fight in formation.
……
After the fifth watch, the east has been faintly white, the deputy commander of the right wing army, Beledu has already dressed neatly, the army is cooking on the third watch, and the camp is on the fourth watch, and at this moment, he only waits for the general to give an order to launch a final attack on Jiazhuang, where the southern barbarian slaves gather.
Woo woo - the sound of the horn suddenly rose.
The Qing army, which was full of swords and guns, started to move, and the leader of the front army urged forward, and everyone rushed forward like a swarm, followed by the Chinese army following and slowly moving forward. The cavalry on the left and right flanks slipped diagonally from the flank.
In this way, the formation is set up, and there is a momentum that the whale swallows the obstacles in front of it.
However, an accident happened, the front army was startled without warning, and it was actually ambushed, and the Ming army had already been ambushed in the place where Du Du set the advance route. The original formation of this advance was disrupted in an instant, and this Ming army was like a wedge hammered into the front army of the Tartars.
This qiē fell into Du Du's eyes, although unexpected, the Ming army actually dared to fight to the death, while admiring the courage of the other party's main general, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a mocking smile, with an absolutely inferior army dared to launch a surprise attack on the main force of the right wing army, is it too self-conscious, or did not take him Du Du in his eyes at all? Then let the other master pay the price for his own inadequacy!
After an order was issued, the torches were suddenly raised, the left and right command flags changed several times, and the cavalry on the right flank suddenly accelerated, plunging into the already whitened darkness, but unexpectedly, a sudden burst of people neighed on their horses, and they were actually caught in the trap of the Ming army again.
Du Du smiled, the main general of the Ming army was really interesting, and he was not blindly sent to death, but this could not stop the attack of the Qing Dynasty Iron Cavalry. If the invincible Daqing Iron Cavalry would be restrained by a small ambush, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous?
Sure enough, after the initial chaos, the front army quickly restored order under the reprimands and orders of the battalion leaders, and the Ming army, which was nailed into the front army of the Tartars like a wedge, soon showed a decline and gradually had a tendency to be scattered. At the same time, the cavalry on the right flank crossed the trap set by the Ming army and began to move forward, as long as they went around the flank and rear of the Ming army, it was the death of the Ming army.
But just when Du Du thought that everything was under his control, a piece of darkness suddenly lit up, and the Ming army suddenly raised fire, and the cavalry on the right wing of the Tartars actually rushed into the encirclement deliberately set up by the Ming army.
The sudden light of the fire really surprised Du Du, and his eyebrows raised several times one after another! The Ming army's will to win was far stronger than he had imagined, and the Ming army in this encounter seemed to be very different from the army it had fought with in the past. Although this Ming army is the Ming army that was defeated and retreated all the way from the Ming Jing Division, something unprecedented broke out today.
That's the heart of death.
Du Du suddenly had a feeling that the opponent's main general not only had a heart to win, but also a heart to die.
In an instant, the young Baylor figured it out, and he burst out laughing.
"The Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, sooner or later, you will not die at the hands of thieves, nor at the hands of my Qing Dynasty, but at the hands of your emperor and ministers. How sad it is that such a good general has been forced to die by you! ”
Although Du Du was young, he was by no means as arrogant as other Aixin Jueluo disciples, otherwise Huang Taiji would not have appointed him as the deputy commander of the right-wing army. After observing the heart of the chief general of the Ming army, there was a trace of sympathy.
"If you can die at the hands of my Du Du, it will be your creation!"
He asked himself, he could see the thoughts of the main general of the Ming army by arranging the troops, and the number of people in the Qing army would not exceed one hand, and he Du Du was one of them.
The white belly of the fish belly in the east has become more and more obvious, and the formation arranged by the Ming army in the dark has begun to loom in the early morning, the advantage of the Ming army is losing bit by bit, and the balance of victory is tilted to Du Du.
Du Du's expression gradually turned cold, and it was another series of orders, the soldiers holding the flag next to him waved the flag, and the cavalry on the left flank of the Qing army finally went out and plunged straight into the right wing and rear of the Ming army.
The size of the Ming army is not more than 10,000, it is impossible to protect the left and right wings so thoroughly, before the ambush in the company, one is that the other party will have a calculating intention, and the other is that luck has been favoring him.
However, this time luck will not be on the side of the main general of the Ming army, with the advance of the left wing cavalry, Du Du's eyes gradually turned from cold to hot.
……
On the official road leading from the Qinghe River to Guangzong, an army of horse-foot soldiers was galloping from east to west. The scarlet battle flag of the Chinese army is embroidered with several big characters, "Shandong General Soldier Liu"!
That's right, this army is the Shandong army of Liu Zeqing, the chief soldier of Shandong Town, but the leader has been replaced by Li Xin, the envoy of the governors of the three provinces. Li Xin was followed by Lu Jiu, and beside Lu Jiu was Liu Zeqing's family member and pro-military battalion general Liu Quan, his deputy general was removed, but he didn't care about the false name of a deputy general who could save his life and military power. He is now closely following the footsteps of the special envoy Li Xin, for fear that one day Yao Wenchang will attack again, and Li Xin will abandon it.
In addition to Lu Jiu and Liu Quan, on the other side of Li Xin was a great monk with extremely sloppy robes. The great monk complained about Li Xin's various wrongs, and he was prophesying.
"Don't do more things to change your life against the sky, one or two must not be repeated and four, otherwise the longevity and fortune will be ruined, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"
This thing has been buzzing like a fly, but this sentence has gone to Li Xinkan. The great monk is Jiexiu, he seems to know something, he did save Sun Chengzong, and this time he is ready to save Lu Xiangsheng, how can he persuade himself not to meddle in his affairs? With such an unscientific thing as crossing, the theory of fortune and longevity may not be uncredible.
However, Li Xin's mind was clear in an instant, what kind of longevity and fortune, what if it was all gone, he would rebel on this day, and his life would be changed, if God was dissatisfied, let the revenge come more violently! ――
