Chapter 350: Pull the cannon up

The three hundred personal soldiers around Wu Sangui were trained by his father Wu Xiang, and like Zuo Liangyu, who was already the deputy chief soldier of Henan, Wu Xiang also liked to build his own personal soldiers into a team based on bows and arrows, rather than swords-based like the personal soldiers of other generals of the Ming Dynasty.

There are now less than 100 of these 300 soldiers, and the rest of them are all killed under the charge of the Jinzhou cavalry, and few of them surrendered, thinking that it is because of the favor of the Wu family.

Originally, if the duel between the Liaodong cavalry and the Jinzhou cavalry was between the two lieutenants, Wu Sangui's pro-army team should be able to exert a lot of combat power, at that time on the battlefield, because of the hot weather, one side was too contemptuous, and the other side was too confident, so there were not many knights on both sides wearing armor, and those with armor were mostly cotton armor. In this way, the bow and arrow can bring a lot of casualties to the other side, but unfortunately the difference in strength between the two sides is too great, although the strength is superior, it is three times that of the Jinzhou army, but the Liaodong cavalry is defeated too quickly. The situation took a turn for the worse, so that Wu Sangui's pro-army team collapsed before it had time to organize effective shooting.

Seeing that the defeat was decided and the general trend had gone, those pro-soldiers fired an arrow indiscriminately and ran away. Some brave soldiers fought on their own, but the sporadic arrows could not stop the charge of the Jinzhou army, and they were soon cut down, and the remaining less than 100 people guarded the head of the family, Wu Sangui, desperately fled to the Ming army camp.

"How so? How so? How so? ”

In the camp of the Ming army, Gao Qiqian was already colorless, and his previous spirit was gone, and he would be pale and muttering to himself, and he didn't know what to say. There was a little eunuch who was close and clearly saw that Gao Gonggong's legs were trembling.

Although Zhang Guochen was also stunned, he also thought of sending troops to save Zu Dabi and Wu Sangui as soon as possible. Helplessly, Gao Qiqian is no longer in charge, and his brain is blank, where can he manage this matter. Helpless, Zhang Guochen could only go to the Beijing camp and the Sichuan army to send troops to save people. Lin Qing, who didn't want to camp in Beijing, and Deng Ci and Wang Hong of the Sichuan army shook their heads like rattles, saying that the Jinzhou army was strong and could not be bent, and sending troops out of the army at this moment could only send them to death, and they could not save people at all.

asked Jia Hongjiao to take the Yongwei battalion to send troops, Jia Hongjiao spread his hands and said that he couldn't give the order of the Duke Gao, and he couldn't move a single soldier in the Yongwei battalion, otherwise he wouldn't want to save his head.

A bunch of cowards!

Zhang Guochen was anxious and hateful, and saw that although the soldiers and horses of Jizhen were still retreating, they were close to the Liaodong soldiers, and in a hurry, he rushed out of the army, and found Jin Guochen and Le Guoqi, who were organizing a retreat, in the military array, and begged the two to quickly lead the troops to save Zu Dabi and Wu Sangui, and the result was still the same. Jin and Le said in unison that the Jinzhou army was really a rare strong army in the world, and it was impossible for them to rescue people from the Jinzhou cavalry with the more than 5,000 soldiers and horses under their command. The most urgent thing they had to do was to immediately withdraw to the battalion and confront the Jinzhou army with the fortifications in the battalion. Le Guoqi said that the Jinzhou army did not have the equipment to attack the fortifications, but the large camp of this small official village had been built for more than half a year, and the fortifications such as trenches and antlers were readily available. If it is impossible to withdraw the large battalion in order to save people, it is difficult to block the attack of the Jinzhou army with the soldiers and horses of the large battalion.

Which is more important, Lord Zhang must be able to understand it, right?

Zhang Guochen said that he could not move a family of soldiers and horses to save the Liaodong soldiers, so he could only beat his chest and scream, saying that this time the court was going to bury two good generals. But he never thought that if it weren't for him, how could Xie Lian, the governor of Denglai, and Zhu Wannian, the governor of Laizhou, die at the hands of the rebels. If you want to talk about burial, he Zhang Guochen is the most damned.

Jin Guochen and Le Guoqi didn't bother to pay attention to Zhang Guochen, and led more than 5,000 Jizhen soldiers to continue to retreat. The Jinzhou army also seemed to have no intention of attacking these Jizhen soldiers and horses, allowing them to retreat, and did not send troops to stop them

Shi Dayong rushed straight to Zu Dabi, behind him was a banner with the word "Shi", Guo Yi and dozens of personal guards followed closely, Peng Dazhui and Peng Sihai's uncle and nephew, Wang Tiande and others were also around.

The trapped beast was still fighting, Zu Dabi was in a hurry to flee back, holding a long knife, followed by dozens of guards, and rushed towards Shi Dayong.

Shi Dayong stared at the tip of Zu Dabi's knife, and the tip of the knife became bigger and closer in front of Dayong's eyes. When the tip of the knife approached Dayong's body, Dayong turned sideways violently, avoided the tip of the knife, grabbed the blade with his left hand, and cracked a bloody wound, and when the blood was splashed, the long knife in his right hand had slashed towards Zu Dabi like lightning.

Zu Dabi is known as the "Zu Er Maniac" in the Liao army, and the army is called his courage to fight, at this time he and Shi Dayong face to face, the so-called narrow road meets the brave wins, and I also know that if you want to return the whole body today, you can only escape from Shi Dayong's knife.

If Da Yong didn't come in person, Zu Dabi would also panic, because he was surrounded by the cavalry of the Jinzhou army, no matter how brave he was, he was invincible with both fists and four legs, not to mention that there were fewer and fewer guards around him, and he would inevitably be surrounded by the cavalry of the Jinzhou army like a pack of wolves after the most lucrative time, and at that time, he would either dismount and surrender, or wield a knife to kill himself.

Now, Dayong came to meet him in person, which made him feel relieved. Zu Dabi is very confident in his own martial arts, seeing that Shi Dayong is fierce, and the standard-bearer is following closely, he also has the intention of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, and he also threw his heart straight to Shi Dayong.

As soon as he fought, Zu Dabi was taken aback, he never thought that Shi Dayong would be so harmful, after the blade was grabbed by Shi Dayong, he reacted very quickly, immediately gave up the long knife, lay on the horse's back, and slammed the horse with a spur. The war horse rushed forward after suffering pain, and Zu Dabi was able to avoid the fatal knife, but the armor on his back had been heavily split by Dayong.

Pity!

Failed to kill Zu Dabi with a knife, Dayong sighed regretfully, but he was not discouraged, and as soon as his legs were strangled, he chased after Zu Dabi on horseback.

Zu Dabi didn't get rid of Shi Dayong, he was terrible in his heart, and reached out to get the waist knife while running away. Dayong never gave Zu Dabi any chance, and the second knife slashed straight at his neck.

Zu Dabi is worthy of the "ancestor two madman", he has been in the army for many years, and has fought a lot of battles with Zu Dashou, and his experience cannot but be said to be rich. However, the war horse under his crotch could not be spared, and the long knife slashed at the horse's neck, and the war horse ran a few steps before falling to the ground.

The few battles between Dayong and Zu Dabi were all completed on a galloping horse, short and dangerous. Most of Zu Dabi's personal guards did not follow, and were intercepted by Peng Dazhui, Wang Tiande and others, and only four or five horsemen luckily broke out of the encirclement. Seeing Zu Dabi landing, Guo Yi and other guards hurriedly rode over, Guo Yi was also a warrior, bent down to hold the back collar of Zu Dabi's clothes, lifted Zu Dabi on the horse, and at the same time, slammed Zu Dabi's head with the handle of the knife to knock him unconscious.

captured Zu Dabi alive, and the guards did not wait for Shi Dayong's order, and shouted in unison: "Zu Dabi has been captured, and those who surrender will not die." ”

As soon as he heard that Zu Dabi was captured, suddenly those Liaodong cavalry who were still resisting no longer had the slightest idea of resisting, and all dismounted and surrendered, even the more than 100 personal soldiers around Wu Sangui heard the news, and they all had no fighting spirit.

Hearing that his uncle was captured, Wu Sangui thought it was a trick of the Jinzhou army to disrupt the army's heart, but when he saw from a distance that his uncle's general flag had fallen, and there was no fight on the battlefield except for his side, and he couldn't hear a shout of killing, he couldn't help but sigh, and he knew that it was impossible for him to run back.

Looking up and seeing Cao Bianjiao of the Jinzhou Army carrying a spear and turning his horse to kill again, Wu Sangui didn't dare to hesitate any longer, threw the spear in his hand to the ground, and then shouted: "It's down!" ”

The head of the family has surrendered, how can the surrounding soldiers not surrender. They had already lost their fighting spirit, and when they heard the words, they all shouted to surrender, and the swords, bows and arrows in their hands were thrown down one after another.

Down?!

Cao Bianjiao was killing sexually, and the Liao soldiers who died under his spear were only afraid that there were dozens of people, and they were about to pick Wu Sangui with one shot to prevent future troubles, but they didn't want to hear Wu Sangui shouting to surrender, and they were stunned for a while. But soon, a sneer appeared at the corner of Cao Bianjiao's mouth, he shouted, and galloped towards Wu Sangui.

"I'm down?"

Seeing that Cao Bianjiao was going to kill him, Wu Sangui was also terrified, and subconsciously wanted to wave his gun to resist, but the spear in his hand was thrown to the ground by himself, instinctively remembering that there was a sword on his waist, and he was about to reach out to pull it out, but Cao Bianjiao's spear had already been slashed, and it slashed at his chest without hindrance.

Cao Bianjiao has the courage of ten thousand people, and in the battle of the big and small Linghe on the same day, a spear directly killed the slave chief Hongtai and fled, which can be described as the first brave general of the Ming Dynasty. He mustered all his strength at Wu Sangui, Rao is Wu Sangui was wearing a Ming armor, but the tip of the gun also pierced through the heart goggles, and then "poof" pierced Wu Sangui's heart.

The blood-stained tip of the spear passed straight through Wu Sangui's body, Wu Sangui's face was bloodless, he looked at his chest blankly, and after half a sound, a mouthful of blood spit out, shook a few times on the horse, and fell off the horse backwards.

"Young master, young master!"

The sudden change frightened the Wu Sangui soldiers who surrendered, and several people rushed forward, hugging Wu Sangui's body and crying. The rest of the people also burst into tears and mourned.

Damn! What a fart!

Cao Bianjiao was impatient when he heard this, and with a wave of his hand, the wolf cavalry suddenly rushed forward with their swords and hacked all these soldiers of Wu Sangui to death.

Hearing that Cao Bianjiao had killed Wu Sangui, Dayong was stunned at first, with an incomprehensible expression on his face, and then snatched the long knife from Guo Yi's hand without saying a word, and slashed it at Zu Dabi, who was already unconscious.

The knife in his hand fell, and he only slashed seventeen or eighteen knives, cutting Zu Dabi's body into one piece in the east and one in the west, and none of them were complete.

After killing Zu Dabi, Dayong also ordered all Zu Dabi's personal soldiers to be killed. For Dayong, it is impossible for these personal soldiers who have been raised by the master of the family to happily switch to Dayong, and leaving them by his side can only be a disaster, and they must be killed. Dayong does not believe in heavenly principles, does not believe in retribution, he only believes in cutting grass and not roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows.

In this battle, the Liaodong cavalry was annihilated, Zu Dabi and Wu Sangui were killed, and all 24 generals in the army were killed, and 1,200 people were captured.

After the battle, it was dusk, the battlefield had been cleaned up by the new soldiers and horses, the horses and weapons were checked, and all the generals came to congratulate Dayong, but Dayong ignored the blood all over his body, pointed his knife at the Ming army camp, and shouted: "Pull the cannon up for Lao Tzu!" ”
