Chapter 70: A Turnaround (Merry Christmas)

In terms of strength, the Qing army still has a considerable advantage in strength, but in this kind of dangerous offensive and defensive battle, no matter how many men and horses can be used.

Although Zhu Yongxing is calm and calm on the outside, he is planning the way, but his inner self-confidence is not very sufficient. Moreover, he only set a rough strategy, and asked Bai Wenxuan and other experienced generals to help him perfect specific tactics. is also not too confident enough, so he always sets the highest expectations and then the lowest goal for himself every time he plans.

For every day of perseverance, the Qing army will be weakened. If we can't beat it, we will retreat and look for fighters in Tengchong City. Of course, Zhu Yongxing hoped to nail the Qing army to the mountain, let the power of heaven and earth be used as a weapon, and easily achieve victory. But he was also prepared in case things didn't go well, breaking the road was a late move, which could minimize the speed of the Qing army's pursuit, and would also be harassed by a small force.

Everything was difficult at the beginning, and after the most difficult situation, Zhu Yongxing didn't dare to bet all the chips in his hand together. Rather, it was to weaken the enemy as much as possible, to be as opportunistic as possible, and to enable the Qing army to act as much as possible as it envisioned.

And Zhu Yongxing tried his best to defy public opinion and insisted on staying on the main position, which also has his reasons. Only by being familiar with the characteristics of the operations at that time, and only by accurately understanding the combat strength of the Ming and Qing armies, could he plan more realistically in the future. Moreover, under heavy protection, he is not in much danger, but will add a lot of points to his image.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Ming armies were allowed to rest and recuperate, and then constantly transferred the rested Ming troops to the team as a unit, Zhu Yongxing had initially achieved the goal of breaking up and reorganizing. Although it is not very thorough enough, it does weaken the control of the original generals over the current subordinates. Whoever wants to easily lead the troops to join him is not as smooth as it used to be.

The feudal towns are domineering, and the generals are good at dictating, and this is not the case in the last days of the dynasty, but this is by no means what Zhu Yongxing hopes. He doesn't want to be a puppet at the mercy of others, he wants to have control over the army. Otherwise, even if it is a respected royal family member, he doesn't want to do it, he doesn't want to do it.

Just as Zhu Yongxing fell into a long contemplation again, a Ming army herald rushed over, and the sound of footsteps interrupted Zhu Yongxing's thoughts.

"Your Highness, General Chen ordered the villain to report that the Qing army is opening a road in the mountain cliffs and dense forests, and it seems that they are going to carry out a roundabout attack on the main position of Shanyakou." The herald was brought over by several personal soldiers, knelt on one leg, and reported to Zhu Yongxing.

Zhu Yongxing nodded lightly, the Qing army lost its head-on attack, and it must have to think of another way. The main defensive position of Nansai Gongfang extends from the center of the mountain pass to the mountain beams on both sides, with a horizontal distance of about 1,000 meters, while the snow depression on the west side is obviously a weak link. Daniel Zhang and Line Guoan were really unwilling to retreat, and they were worthy of being battle-hardened, and finally found a breakthrough.

"Go back and tell General Chen that the Qing army is likely to attack from the east, north, and south, so that he must not be negligent." Zhu Yongxing paused and continued: "I will order the mobile force to move westward, and if the situation is dangerous, let General Chen send a signal immediately, and reinforcements will arrive soon." ”

"Yes, the villain takes the order." The herald bowed his head and got up to leave.

"Wait a minute." Zhu Yongxing suddenly raised his hand to stop the little soldier, turned his head and said to the guard next to him: "Take him to drink a bowl of hot soup and then roast the fire, warm up his body and then leave." ”

It's just a simple care, but the difference in status is 108,000 miles, according to the inherent concept of superiority and inferiority of people at that time, this is a great reward. The little soldier who gave the order knelt down again and thanked him: "Thank you for your grace, Your Highness, the villain is not cold, and he does not dare to delay the military aircraft." ”

"Then just a bowl of hot soup!" Zhu Yongxing smiled faintly and said, "What is the situation with General Chen, are the soldiers hungry, cold and sick?" ”

The herald hesitated for a moment and replied, "Returning to Your Highness, even on weekdays, illness is inevitable. Now the soldiers have hot soup and hot meals to eat, and they have shelter from the wind and rain, which is many times better than the Qing army. ”

can be a herald, but he is really a sharp-toothed and nimble-minded guy, although the answer is vague, but he also tells the general situation, Chen Sheng should still be able to do it.

Zhu Yongxing smiled and waved his hand and sent the little soldier away. He wanted to take the guards to the west to see the specific situation, so he took two steps and stopped, and explained to the captain of the guard: "Send people to contact the Marquis of Huairen and the Marquis of Guangchang, so that they can strengthen their defense, don't slack off, the Qing army is likely to divide their troops and attack by detour." ”

If you want to break through the Nansai public house, attacking along the main line of the ancient road is one way; From the south wing of Xiaoxinzhai and Manghei Hetou through Xinlutou to Ligong Mountain, around the dam and Jiang Tho behind the side of Nansai Gongfang is another way. For this reason, Zhu Yongxing organized two lines of defense on the southern flank, which were blocked by Wu Zisheng, Marquis of Huairen, and Gao Wengui, Marquis of Guangchang.

Speaking from the heart, Zhu Yongxing was both worried about the Qing army's division of troops and around, but also had some expectations. Worried that the Qing army would succeed in the bypass, he had no choice but to lead the holding troops here to withdraw to Tengchong, so as not to be cut off from the back road; Looking forward to it, it is hoped that Wu Zisheng and Gao Guanggui will command skillfully and have another victory similar to the ambush of Wang Jinbao's department.

The battlefield is like this, there are few foolproof victories, and there are few examples of success without risk. Although the Qing army is currently trapped in the mountains, there are still variables, and the outcome is still unpredictable.

As for the Qing army's roundabout attack by opening roads in the dense forest cliffs on both sides of Shanyakou, Zhu Yongxing is not too worried now. The snow chongwa on the west side is said to be weak, and it is also compared to other positions, if the Qing army wants to break through, it still has to work hard to attack, which is not an easy thing.

Chen Sheng was in charge of the west, Zhang Wencui was in charge of the east, Zhu Yongxing and Dingshuo's general Wu Sanxing were in the main position, and Chen Yiyao led the mobile force and was responsible for rescuing everywhere. In the early stage of the blocking battle, these three generals performed well, and they basically broke away from the jurisdiction of their original bosses, so that Zhu Yongxing could use them with a little confidence.

All the measures that can be taken have been taken, and those who should have been encircled have also been encircled, and they have all come to the front line to sit in order to boost morale, if the current situation is superior, there are still Ming generals to surrender to the Qing army, Zhu Yongxing has no choice but to cry out in vain.

Alas, who let himself be unlucky, he can also play a crossing when he goes into the mountains to hunt, and if he crosses, forget it, and let himself catch up with this panicked apocalypse, and he has a bad card in his hand. It's hard to kick out a little bit, if you are sold by your own people again, then it's really God's eyes, it's just a pit daddy!
