The Tianxiong army was immediately besieged and divided into several sections by the Qing army, and Lu Xiangsheng also engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army with his own soldiers. Lu Xiangsheng is an outlier among the Ming Wenchen, he is proficient in battlefield skills, his body is strong, and his martial arts are strong, and the Qing army that was slashed by him today has more than a dozen people. But it is difficult for a single tiger to fight a group of wolves, and the troops around Lu Xiangsheng are getting fewer and fewer, and now there are only about 100 people left.

"Sir! The Tartars came up again. The captain of the pro-soldier beside him reminded Lu Xiangsheng.

Lu Xiangsheng retracted his gaze, glanced at the captain of his own family, and looked around at the soldiers around him, these soldiers were all scorched, and they were all hungry for a few days. They all abandoned their usual heavy weapons and replaced them with lighter weapons such as knives and guns.

Lu Xiangsheng sighed in his heart, and said calmly: "Guan Yu's severed head, Ma Yuan shrouded in corpse, at this time!" Then he shouted and rushed over first.

Lu Xiangsheng's figure of riding a horse and charging is quite impassioned, but he is a minister of the Ming Dynasty who is the governor of the world! Now he has to fight with the Qing soldiers with his sword and shield, how sad, how tragic, and lonely that figure is! ……

On December 11, the eleventh year of Chongzhen, the Tianxiong Army fought alone, and the commander Lu Xiangsheng also personally waved his sword and rushed into the battle, killing more than ten enemies, Zuihou was hit by two arrows and two knives, fell from his horse and died, when he was only 39 years old. Lu Xiangsheng died a generous and heroic death, and was also praised by the world, but his sacrifice did not have any impact on the entire battle situation. Even in the original history, the Qing Dynasty history books did not regard the Battle of Jiazhuang as an important battle, nor did they make any records.

With the death of Governor Lu Xiangsheng in battle, Hu Dawei and Yang Guozhu also led their own soldiers to flee in panic, and less than 1,000 of Zuihou's more than 5,000 soldiers were gathered. And the Tianxiong Army created by Lu Xiangsheng was also wiped out in this battle. In comparison, the Qing army suffered less than 200 casualties in this battle. This shows the huge difference in strength between the two sides. Of course, the food shortages with high potentials are also "indispensable". This is the first time I have seen the strange story of a friendly army cutting off a friendly army's rations. This is really crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty!

Lu Xiangsheng was a minister with outstanding character and ability in the late Ming Dynasty. However, because of the Shilin atmosphere at that time and Lu Xiangsheng's own ideology, he still committed a lot of stains in this entrance battle. But when he arrived in Zuihou, Lu Xiangsheng also washed away these stains with his own life and blood.

However, Lu Xiangsheng, who has been sleeping underground for a long time, doesn't know: there are still people who want him to die without blinking. I won't mention this for now, but this will be more on this later in the article.

Just when Lu Xiangsheng was martyred, in the camp of Gao Qiqian in Shunde Mansion, Yang Tinglin was still begging Gao Qiqian: "Gao Gonggong! I hope you will lend a helping hand and send troops to receive Inspector Lu here! ”

After asking for help in vain, Yang Tinglin has put the conditions to the lowest. I just hope that Gao Qiqian will send some soldiers and horses to rescue Lu Xiangsheng personally. Gao Qiqian was also forced by Yang Tinglin to have no choice, his lips squirmed a few times, and just as he wanted to agree, he heard a personal soldier hurriedly running in from outside the tent. As soon as the soldier entered the big tent, he knelt down and said, "Lord Overseer! Horse Exploration returns. The entire army of Lu Du's division was defeated. The Tartars have gathered their whole army and are besieging it. ”

The people in the tent were all shocked, and even Gao Qiqian was so shocked that he stood up from his chair, and he shouted at the throat of the male duck: "Assemble quickly!" Inspector Lu doesn't listen to the advice of miscellaneous families, so that's why it's like this. Otherwise......"

As soon as he said this, Yang Tinglin on the side pounced with red eyes. Immediately entangled with Gao Qiqian. The generals in the tent hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two, but Yang Tinglin was still shouting hysterically: "Eunuch! This great tomorrow will be at the hands of you. You don't have to die well! You've cut off your children and grandchildren! ”

Then Yang Tinglin broke free from the general's hand, pointed at the general in the big tent and scolded: "You all don't save you when you die!" There are really no strong men in the three armies, and the camp is full of eunuchs. We are ashamed to be in the same company as you. ”

"Hahaha-!" Yang Tinglin looked up to the sky like crazy. Then he dressed up and said, "Gong Lu, wait for the student, the student is here with you!" After finishing speaking, Yang Tinglin walked out of the big tent without looking back, took the guards arranged for him by Lu Xiangsheng, and rushed to the battlefield without looking back.

With Yang Tinglin's departure, there was silence in the big tent, and those generals felt a little ashamed in their hearts, many of them were red-faced and speechless, and a sense of sadness for the death of a rabbit and a fox also arose.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the tent was quite dull, Gao Qi said hoarsely: "Miscellaneous ......, miscellaneous ......!" But he didn't think he could explain it. Zuihou Gao Qiqian could only divert the topic: "Gather the troops and retreat overnight!" ”

As soon as the Tianxiong army led by Lu Xiangsheng was defeated, it first caused Gao Qiqian to panic. As it turned out, he may have been a public relations master, a military theorist and a good general, but he was definitely not a qualified commander. And at this time, the good fortune that Gao Qiqian had been relying on was also used up.

In the camp under his command, the eunuch Gao Qiqian unceremoniously rejected the request for help from Yang Tinglin, the counselor under Lu Xiangsheng, and even the rescue proposal of the chief soldier Zu Kuan was sternly rejected by him. When he got the news that Lu Xiangsheng had died in battle, he immediately pulled out the camp and retreated.

Eunuch Gao's panic was not because of Lu Xiangsheng's death, but because he felt panicked that the Manchu army was so close to his side, and he was afraid that he would suffer the same fate as Lu Xiangsheng. So tens of thousands of troops hurriedly pulled out their camps and retreated, which was already chaotic and prone to chaos, and on the way to withdraw, small groups of troops continued to disperse. But at this time, our high eunuch couldn't care about anything.

This army of 40,000 men had only walked less than 15 miles, and suddenly there was an ambush of Tartars on the way, and Gao Qiqian first avoided the battle, and then retreated in a hurry, and the morale of the army was long gone, and the whole army was panicked. Suddenly, an ambush broke out, and the whole army was immediately crushed, and a full 40,000 people immediately dispersed like a plate of scattered sand.

Gao Qiqian is a person who fled to Zhending Mansion on horseback, and these 40,000 soldiers and horses are Guanning and Xuanda border soldiers, can also be called the most elite in the Ming army, from the Lugou Bridge after the battle to Shunde Mansion, the whole army has not tasted a battle, not a single arrow has been fired, and the enemy is defeated and the army is not formed, and the whole army is wiped out in disguise. As a matter of fact. The so-called ambush soldiers were nothing more than 2,000 partial divisions of the Qing army.

Among them, the most unlucky is the chief soldier Wang Pu. When he led his army to the big camp of Gao Qiqian, he thought that he would be able to come down safely, and in the future, he would be able to fly Huang Tengda by relying on Yang Sichang, a scholar of the cabinet and a secretary of the Ministry of War, and Gao Qiqian, the great eunuch, but he didn't expect to get out of the wolf's den and enter the tiger's den again!

Anyway, Lu Xiangsheng and Gao Qiqian's troops have disappeared in a glorious or humiliating way, and now in addition to the Beijing camp and Qinwang troops around the Beijing Division, except for Yu Zilian's Ruzhou Army and the Runing Army that just arrived in Cangzhou, there is no Ming army in Beizhili that can fight in the field.

After the Qing army eliminated these two Ming armies, they immediately joined forces and prepared to encircle and suppress a nearby Ming army, Yu Zilian's Ruzhou army. But when Dolgon led his army to the camp of the Ruzhou army, he was dumbfounded. In just a few days, the Ruzhou army has built its own camp into an earthen city. Yu Zilian imitated Wu Shigong meticulously! Even the turtle stream has been learned by him.

However, seeing the siege of the Qing army, Yu Zilian also panicked, and he sent messengers to the Quartet overnight to ask for help from the nearby Ming army.

Although the Qing army at this time had exceeded 20,000, and the number was twice as large as the Ruzhou army, they entered the customs to rob property and population, not to wipe out the Ming army, so Dolgon would never fight for the loss of troops to storm the camp of the Ruzhou army.

So the Qing army first used red-coated cannons, wanting to break the Tucheng of the Ruzhou army by breaking through the city. But the Qing army had artillery, and the Ruzhou army also had artillery, anyway, who was afraid of whom, they just bombarded each other. But this pair of bombardments made Dorgon flinch again. The artillery of the Qing army is still very useful, and it will be used in the future to attack the cities of the Ming Dynasty! I don't want to lose in vain in the artillery battle!

Then use the trick of driving the Han people to attack the city! However, when Dolgon sent troops to the vicinity to capture the Ming people, the harvest was also very small. These days, the Qing army and the three Ming armies of Lu, Gao, and Yu are fighting here, and the people nearby have long fled without a trace.

But it is impossible for Dolgon to besiege the Ruzhou army for a long time! So the Qing army could only leave regrets, and after gathering all the small units of the Qing army, they took the initiative to retreat and began the next stage of military operations.

The Ruzhou Army, an army that was almost forgotten by the imperial court, on the contrary, fought with the Qing Army in the process of this road to King Qin, and did not suffer any losses. Of course, after the Qing army retreated, the messenger sent by Yu Zilian for help could not be recovered.

On December 16, in the camp of the Ruzhou Army in Hejian Province.

"This Ming is going to die! It's going to fall! The country will not be a country! ......" Zhou Junwu went crazy in Wu Shigong's big tent with a handful of snot and tears, banging his head on the big case for a while, and throwing things on the big case everywhere for a while.

Wu Shigong and Li Lu clasped their hands to their chests, smiled and watched Zhou Junwu messing around, and did not come forward to persuade them, just waiting for Zhou Junwu to finish venting.

"Brother-in-law! This person weishenme will be like this? Li Lu asked strangely.

"How do I know? This man has a relationship with me, and he was brought back by a son who went out to investigate, but this is what he looks like after he comes back. I had to wait for him to calm down before asking. Wu Shigong replied, "But Brother Li, what do you have to do to deal with the madman?" (To be continued......)
