The great battle that took place near Jincheng ended with the death of Mang Gurtai and the fall of the Zhenglan Banner.

For such a result, neither Zhao Hongyu nor Jay Chou was surprised. Because since the battle plan was made, they knew very well that victory would be on their side.

The reason why I have such a strong self-confidence is because I have sharp weapons.

Of course, the emergence of the Song Empire was not smooth sailing, and the process was a bit bloody. It is precisely because the Imperial Army is not a novice, and it has experienced a lot of killings and has combat experience, so it will have such self-confidence.

In particular, Zhao Hongyu himself, with less than 10,000 troops in Kyushu, defeated the battle in which the 13 Ming families in Kyushu combined to exceed 150,000 people.

This battle made Zhao Hongyu no longer have any worries about the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army.

This time, Mang Gurtai led the army to attack, and although the soldiers and horses under his command were all elite cavalry, they were only more than 30,000 troops.

This bit of soldiers and horses was not taken into account by Zhao Hongyu at all.

Not only Zhao Hongyu sees it this way, but Jay Chou also sees it this way.

The battle under the Ming Dynasty Jingshi a few months ago has already made Jay Chou understand the combat power of the Houjin Eight Banners and the combat methods of the Eight Banners.

With such an understanding, how could Jay Chou be afraid.

The Eight Banners relied on their own cavalry and often fought and clashed with the Ming army to achieve victory. This is understandable, after all, the Ming army lacks war horses, and the infantry will definitely have a great disadvantage.

However, although the army of the Song Empire was also infantry, it was ahead of the countries of this era in terms of weapons.

Therefore, even if there are many cavalry of the Eight Banners, what can the soldiers do if they are brave.

Under the tactics of linear gun formation and five-stage shooting, the superiority of cavalry was simply impossible to play.

If you can't rush to the front of the Song Imperial Army, you will be covered in the rain of lead bullets in your face, and your whole body will be beaten into a sieve.

Not to mention that the Imperial Army was also equipped with field artillery. And the grenade with a wooden handle to use at the time of the melee.

With these things, if you want to defeat the 30,000 Blue Banner army led by Mang Gurtai, it is not difficult at all.

In the end, it turned out.

Ninety percent of the 30,000 troops were wiped out on this nameless plain, and less than one percent of the soldiers and horses fled back in a panic, which was regarded as picking up a life.

And the guy Mang Gurtai was even more simply surrounded and killed by the soldiers of the Imperial Army after the defeat.

This guy doesn't even have a chance to surrender.

It can be seen that when the most important cavalry of the Cold Weapon era met an army equipped with old-fashioned and sophisticated muskets. They're basically powerless.

It was also from this battle that formed musket units began to appear on the Eastern Continent, letting people know the power of muskets.

Of course, Zhao Hongyu was not at all worried that Hou Jin would use the same method to defeat the Imperial Army.

Not to mention whether Houjin has such a powerful musket manufacturing craftsman, just muskets, gunpowder and lead bullets are enough to keep Houjin busy.

This kind of thing, you can't make it out in a few years, and even if it does, it's a question of whether it can be used.

With all his cheats, Zhao Hongyu can be confident that he can have weapons that have always been ahead of the world. This is also the source of his confidence and self-confidence.

The invading army led by Mang Gurtai was defeated, and it can be said that there will be no trouble here in Jincheng in a short time.

The loss of 30,000 horses was very heavy for Houjin.

The total population of the Later Jin Eight Banners was less than 2 million (not counting the Han Chinese, Goryeo and Mongols, referring to the Manchurians alone). The Jingshi lost 30,000 or 40,000 in the first battle, and another 30,000 were confessed here, adding up to more than 50,000 and almost 60,000.

You know, the loss of these soldiers and horses. That's all Eight Banners.

Especially the elite of the blue flag led by Mang Gurtai.

In the entire Houjin country, there are only so many strong men.

Even without detailed statistics, it can be extrapolated from the fact that it has a population of less than 2 million.

This battle. If nothing else, it is certain that the Houjin widow will definitely increase. At the same time, the Zhenglan Banner has suffered such a big loss, and it must have become the weakest flag of the Eight Banners.

Compared with the loss of 30,000 elites in Zhenglanqi, Mang Gurtai's death is nothing.

It's just a noble Belle, the son of Nurhachi.

But Houjin's strength is the root of its strength.

Not to mention here that Jay Chou solved the problem of Mang Gurtai and led the army back to Jincheng, it is said that the soldiers and horses of the Zhenglan Banner who fled back fled all the way back to Shengjing, and after spreading the war, it suddenly caused a panic here in Shengjing.

"What! Mang Gurtai is dead! There are 30,000 elite soldiers and horses in the Blue Banner, and only more than 2,000 people have escaped!? “

Huang Taiji has been busy consolidating the situation in the country lately, and competing for power with some nobles.

Regarding Mang Gurtai's death, Huang Taiji actually didn't care.

Because Mang Gurtai was not convinced by him, and at the same time he also held the power of the Blue Banner, which can be said to be a thorn in his heart.

Therefore, the news of Mang Gurtai's death, Huang Taiji will only be happy and not be so shocked when he knows it, after all, it is a good thing to have one less person who often does not deal with him and adds to his own blockage, isn't it.

And the reason why Huang Taiji was so shocked was because he heard the loss suffered by the Zhenglan Flag.

A full 30,000 elite blue flags, ninety percent of them were actually lost in Jincheng.

You know, they are all strong, not old and weak.

Besides, the population of the entire Zhenglan Banner is only more than 200,000 people, excluding the old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant, and the Zhenglan Banner is these 30,000 elites.

It's good now, Mang Gurtai actually died in a battle, not to mention, but to confess all the elites of the Zhenglan Banner.

With the loss of these soldiers and horses, if there is another big war in the future, the troops sent by the Zhenglan Banner will be old and weak.

The Manchurian general, who was kneeling in front of Huang Taiji, looked up at Huang Taiji's reaction secretly at this time, and then quickly lowered his head.

"If you go back to the emperor, those soldiers who fled back from defeat did say so."

Burst!

Huang Taiji couldn't help squirting out a mouthful of old blood, his whole body shook, and his eyes were dark. His face turned pale and he stumbled backwards.

Emperor! Emperor!

Take care of your dragon's body.

The minions of Huang Taiji on the side suddenly panicked, but fortunately, someone quickly supported him, otherwise Huang Taiji would have to fall to the ground.

For a while, the fan who fanned him, the smooth air, and the whole room was in chaos.

After a long time, Huang Taiji got over this breath and finally came to his senses.

"Damn it!"

Huang Taiji, who came to his senses, said that Mang Gurtai should die.

Yes, Mang Gurtai deserves to die.

Because he buried all the 30,000 elites of Houjin.

Don't tell him that more than 2,000 people have fled and come back, and that they have been deposed.

At least. It is impossible to extricate yourself from the shadow of defeat in a year or two.

Besides, it is impossible for a huge positive blue flag to rely on these more than 2,000 soldiers and horses to support it.

And once there is a big war, how many soldiers and horses can the Zhenglan Banner pull out.

You always have to leave some seeds for the blue flag.

Therefore, the positive blue flag can be regarded as abolished.

The Eight Banners of the Houjin Kingdom are famous, but now they have become seven.

The blue flag has been abolished, and this is not just a shameful problem.

The rise of Houjin was originally played.

And now the Houjin is seeking to use troops against the tribes of Eastern Mongolia, and now it is also at a relatively critical juncture.

If the news gets out. But it has a big impact.

Not to mention how the tribes of Eastern Mongolia will react, even the Ming Dynasty will give people a headache.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please be smooth. Maybe it's a rumor. A eunuch cautiously persuaded at this time.

Rumor?

Huang Taiji shook his head, his face extremely pale.

He didn't believe it was all rumors.

Because he knew that no one would have the guts to spread such a rumor in Shengjing.

Meantime. He remembered the strange army he had encountered under the Ming Dynasty Jingshi City.

What if it .......

After thinking of the military force he had encountered, Huang Taiji's body trembled violently.

If Mang Gurtai encountered this army, then this is understandable.

"Let Rong Ze come to me immediately. I have something to ask him. ”

At this time, Huang Taiji's face was cloudy, white and black for a while, as if it would change color.

Seriously, in the next battle of Jingshi City in the Ming Dynasty, Huang Taiji was scared.

He'd never seen a battle that could go into hell. Especially the side of the Houjin Army was still beaten by one side of the pressure.

Every time he thought of this battle, the fat on Huang Taiji's face couldn't help but tremble.

It's horrible!

Loud explosions, scenes of stumps flying all over the sky, and the killing of the enemy with expressionless faces.

Are these fucking people still human?

It's simply the devil who exists for the purpose of killing, and these people are Shura who escaped from hell.

The troops stationed there in Jincheng are these people.

Huang Taiji judged.

Soon, a middle-aged man dressed in Manchu costume and wearing a Manchu official hat bowed his head and walked in from outside the house under the leadership of a small eunuch.

"Slave Rong Ze knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live."

Huang Taiji came back to his senses from the chaos of thoughts and looked at Rong Ze who was kneeling in front of him.

"Rong Ze, I ask you, what is the difference between the Ming army stationed in Jincheng?"

Rong Ze didn't know why Huang Taiji was suddenly interested in Jincheng.

According to the doubts in his heart, Rong Ze replied: "Emperor Qiqi, since three months ago, an army was stationed in the abandoned Jincheng of the Ming Dynasty, and the servants sent scouts to investigate. So the minions here know a little bit about the Ming army here in Jincheng, and they also know that the Ming army in Jincheng is very different from the previous Ming army......"

Listening to Rong Ze's narration, Huang Taiji's face became more and more ugly. (To be continued......)
