333 North Wind Sweeps White Grass Fold (12)

When Suo Hai arrived at the Qing army camp in Pangjiazhuang, he saw the Ahabs holding wooden shovels, beating the frozen soil weakly under the whip, and he didn't know whether he was leveling the ground or digging the soil, and he only felt depressed in his heart. He rode into the Chinese army camp in Hilgen and shouted in Manchu: "Hilgen! What kind of battle are you fighting! ”

Zu Zerun had been in Liaodong for many years, and he could speak some Mongolian and Manchurian dialects, knowing that this was a problem between Manchurians, and he must not participate, so he retreated to the side as if he was deaf.

Suo Hai didn't care about him, and shouted at Hilgen: "It's already dawn, why don't you attack yet!" Just let some Aha knock the ground there can knock the barbarian to death! ”

"My lord," Hilgen's face turned pale, "the wind is strong today, and the bows, arrows, and firearms can't reach the Ming army......"

"Joke! If the wind is strong, there will be no war! Suo Hai waved his hand: "From now on, the whole army will listen to my orders!" He strode to the main general's seat and sat down: "Array!" Charge me into battle! Ahha, no armor is in front, there are those who dare to retreat, and the armor soldiers will be killed! Those who dare to retreat, Bayala kills! If you can't break through the wall of the Ming army, I'll die over there! ”

On a windy day, the gunpowder of the bird's gun will be blown away, and even the lead will be blown away. And because it was blowing the northwest wind, the bow and arrow were directly blown horizontally, and few fell in front of the Ming army. However, the artillery of the Ming army was not greatly affected, and the front-loading flintlock pistol directly fed gunpowder into the barrel, as long as the Qing army attacked within a range of twenty steps, it could still effectively break the armor.

Qi Jiguang's standard for an excellent firecracker is a distance of seventy paces and seven shots out of ten. According to this standard, the guns of the Ming army that have undergone strict training are basically considered excellent guns. It's just that because of the fire, this kind of hit is only aimed at the left chest, and as a result, it hits the abdomen or head, but for the needs of war in this era. It's also an effective kill.

In addition to the numerical advantage, Suohai is at a complete disadvantage in terms of weapons and morale. The fresh army he led did touch the chest wall of the Ming army, but they were beaten back by the spears of the Ming army again and again.

On the closest thing to victory, a few bayalas even broke through the breastwork and rushed into the rear. Just when Suo Hai thought that the overall situation had been decided, there was a row of guns from behind the Ming army, and it was the gunners who rushed to the rescue to shoot at close range, and instantly recaptured the gap.

Wang Jiakang was wearing cotton armor, and the helmet on his head was torn tightly by the wind. He climbed the lookout step by step, holding a clairvoyant mirror and watching, grasping the battle situation below. Although the Ming army was small, it was more than enough in defense. The people rushed back and forth, quickly transporting the wounded and killed Ming troops into the village. The impact of casualties on morale is minimized.

On the other hand, the Qing army, every time they rushed to the wall, it was already full of wailing wounded soldiers and corpses, which caused the morale to plummet. When the Manchurians reacted, they sent soldiers to slash and kill Aha who fell to the ground and wailed, but it was no longer able to boost morale.

More and more Aha immediately fell to the ground and pretended to be dead after rushing into the Ming army's attack range, or pulled a Qing army's corpse to cover his body, hoping to avoid the big sword of the armor superintendent.

Suo Hai saw that his teeth were itchy. It is difficult to understand that this turned out to be a Ming army known for its timidity.

"Mingjin." Suo Hai's morning arrogance was gone, and he looked at the Qing army that was charging slower than walking. Finally, it was decided to withdraw the troops and recuperate.

Hearing the sound of gold in the camp, the Qing soldiers quickly withdrew from the Ming army line like a low tide. Those Aha who pretended to be dead hurriedly crawled out of the pile of dead people and surrendered on their knees, hoping to avoid death.

"Colonel!" The chief of staff tilted his head and shouted to Wang Jiakang on the lookout: "Do you want to keep the prisoners!" ”

"Stay." Wang Jiakang climbed down and said, "Give them hot soup and porridge, cotton clothes and leather shoes." Take two days off. When I'm ready, I'll call for battle. ”

The staff officer smiled, quite a feeling of the same as the hero.

Wang Jiakang jumped down from the two pedals of zuihou and said, "Pass the order and prepare to attack." ”

"Attack?" The staff officer was somewhat surprised.

"How long have we been here?" Wang Jiakang asked rhetorically.

"The first attack of the Qing army was at 8:20, and now it is 11:30." Staff officer.

"An hour and a half." The corners of Wang Jiakang's mouth rose slightly, "The first, second, and two thousand headquarters that came from Shenze were in place yesterday. They must have waited for the East to completely relax before fighting. ”

The Ming army of the East Palace system was not a single force.

In the era of the old guard battalion, everyone instilled the concept of teammates and teams in a cramming way, and it has become an instinct to reward and punish for meritorious deeds.

The other two thousand headquarters of the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Guards Division hurried early in the morning and finally arrived at the battlefield when the Qing army was weak. It's just that the Qing army has not exhausted its full strength, so it has been lying in ambush on the west side of the battlefield, and only sent scouts to kill the Qing army's horse scouts and ambush soldiers. At this time, the battle was in full swing, and neither Suo Hai nor Hilgen realized that the Tanma on the West Road had not returned for a long time, let alone that there were already two thousand headquarters eyeing each other.

Finally, when the Qing army Mingjin withdrew its troops, the two rested thousand headquarters finally showed their fangs and pounced on the Qing army camp ten miles away. At this moment, when the Qing army was sleepy and demoralized, and was cooking from the pot, where did they think that there were still two large armies attacking from the flanks.

The tiger squat cannon tore through the defense line organized by the Qing army in a panic, and the Ming army with high morale was like a hot knife like frozen oil, instantly devouring the Qing army that was arrayed to meet the battle.

Suo Hai couldn't figure out why there was such a large ambush of the Ming army. If it was said that the Ming army had premeditated, then how did they know that the Qing Dynasty was going to fight Anping first? If it is said that the reaction of the generals of the Ming army was rapid...... I shouldn't have reacted so quickly!

"My lord, I can't stand it in front of you, let's withdraw first!" Hilgen rode to Suohai, surrounded by panicked Qing troops.

Suo Hai watched the Ming army's red flag waving, morale like a rainbow, and occupied the upper hand again, knowing that the general trend had gone, he had to hate and say: "Go, gather the people and horses and rush back!" ”

However, the high banner betrayed Suo Hai's whereabouts, and the direction of escape soon attracted the poisonous fireball of the Ming army. This special shell made of arsenic, croton, wolf venom, lime, and asphalt will release a large amount of smoke as soon as it explodes. If you inhale a large amount of this poisonous smoke, it will cause the nose to bleed to death.

Of course, no one is stupid enough to inhale into the poisonous smoke, so the purpose of the poisonous fireball is mainly to interfere with the horses.

This constant damage to the horse's sense of smell is far more useful than sound and fire, forcing the horse to spin in place, snorting incessantly, and refusing to obey the rider's commands.

After the Ming army shot a poisonous fireball, the original strong wind actually stopped, and the smoke was not blown away in time, causing greater chaos in the Qing army.

It took a lot of effort for Suo Hai to get the horse to safety in the confusion, but there were only a few goshkhas around him, and Hilgen and Zu Zerun were missing. He didn't care about the two of them, so he just took Goshha and fled in the direction of the Abatai camp.

Wang Jiakang's third general also launched an attack at the right time, but when he was attacking the enemy camp, he was stopped by his own poisonous fireballs, so he had to stop the pursuit formation, and lined up to prevent the panicked Qing soldiers from fleeing south, and at the same time sent horsemen and mandarin duck formations to bypass the poisonous smoke area to pursue the fleeing Qing soldiers.

Wang Jiakang followed the pursuing troops around the Qing army camp, only to see the snow-capped plain, full of scattered fleeing Qing troops and Baoyi Ahha. These people have already lost their weapons, and they are reluctant to take them off because their clothes and armor can keep them warm. However, the heavy armor also became a shackle that bound them, making them look like snails in the snow.

Wang Jiakang took the lead, and the horse team behind him also changed to a whistle stick and slammed on the backs of those fleeing Qing soldiers. Occasionally, there were strong Qing soldiers who still wanted to resist stubbornly, but they were stabbed into blood sacks by the Ming troops who surrounded them in an instant, and fell to the ground softly.

The auxiliaries and people who followed behind also held short sticks and hemp ropes, tied up the Qing soldiers who fell to the ground, connected them in a string, and escorted them to the village. Anyone who dared to resist was immediately given a whip.

In this battle, the Ming army could not kill more than 300 people, but the captured Manchurian Zhenyi and Han Aha were more than 5,000 people, even exceeding the full number of soldiers in the second battalion.

The Suohai army only arrived this morning, and the animal power, grain and grass they brought with them had not yet been consumed. Under the inventory, a total of more than 170 mules and horses, and 300 stones of various grains, beans and grass. This is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow for the Ming army, which has insufficient transportation capacity. (To be continued......)
