Chapter 82: The Tank Is Coming
The Great Wall of Gubeikou, composed of the Great Wall of the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, is the fortress of the Great Wall between the Shanhaiguan and Juyong Passes, and is the throat of the Liaodong Plain and the NMG leading to the Central Plains.
Although the Shanhaiguan was guarding Liaodong, the Manchus could not invade with a large army, but because Huang Taiji defeated Lin Dan Khan and married the Korqin tribe, the Mongol tribes had actually surrendered, so the Manchu cavalry could choose any defensive weak point on the long border to invade.
At Gubeikou, the Great Wall was in disrepair and could allow light cavalry to pass through, so that the Houjin cavalry repeatedly broke through and swept through the three provinces of HBSDSX.
It can be said that if Gubeikou can't stand it, then the entire Central Plains will become the back garden of the Tartars, coming and going freely.
At this time, in Gubeikou, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was fighting bloodily.
A few days ago, the Red Lady got a secret report that a Tartar had entered the customs from Gubeikou, so she led the Guanning Iron Cavalry to come at full speed, and finally intercepted the Tartar cavalry.
In the past, when the Tartar cavalry was stopped, they would retreat and look for an opportunity to fight again. However, this time the Tartar cavalry did not retreat, but continued to rush the pass.
For several days, the Guanning Iron Cavalry worked almost day and night, blocking the opponent's cavalry with all their might. However, there are too many Tartar cavalry, and there are more than 10,000 cavalry in Guanning, and now, less than half of them are left. However, the losses of the other party are also extremely heavy, and both sides are almost exchanging lives for lives.
It stands to reason that there are few Tartars and they will never be able to withstand this kind of consumption, but these Tartar cavalry are like crazy, desperately trying to break through the pass.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer cavalry around her, but the offensive of the Tartars was getting stronger and stronger, the red lady could only ask Shanhaiguan for help. At this time, Li Yan, who was in Shanhaiguan, almost immediately judged that the target of these Tartar cavalry was BJ City.
However, Shanhaiguan could not send troops and horses to support. One is that at this time, there were only foot soldiers left in Shanhaiguan, and the speed was slow, and once they got out of the plain, they would be a live target when they encountered cavalry. Secondly, these Tartars may not have no intention of attacking the west. Once the defenders of Shanhaiguan are transferred, then the main force of the Tartars will definitely attack Shanhaiguan, and at that time, Shanhaiguan will be precarious and difficult to finish.
Therefore, Li Yan could only tell his wife that no matter what, he must block the cavalry of the Tartars, even if he fights to the last person, he will drag it for ten days and half a month, until His Majesty returns to BJ, as long as His Majesty returns to B***J City, it will be unbreakable. The Tartars could not break through the BJ with only a group of cavalry.
"Kill!"
The red lady swung her knife and chopped off the head of a Tartar.
Looking at the head with the ugly mouse braid, the corners of the red lady's mouth showed a contemptuous sneer.
These Tartars are really ugly, if they are allowed to seize the world, all the men in the world will have to shave their heads and tie them into rat braids, then what kind of men are they?
Men should be like their husbands, polite, full of poetry and books, strategizing, and winning thousands of miles away.
The two sides fought for an hour, and the soldiers were divided into two sides, and they were so tired that even the horses were gasping for breath and spitting out white air.
It was still March and it was still extremely cold in the north, and the blood on the ground quickly clotted.
The red lady was covered in blood, and her face was also full of enemy blood, and the heat was steaming, making her body seem to be surrounded by a layer of blood-colored mist, like the resurrection of Hell Shura.
Touching a handful of blood splashed on her face, the red lady's entire face turned blood-red, as terrifying as a rakshasa.
At a glance, those Tartar cavalry retreated again and again, and no one dared to come up. In the past, they were all slaughtered as easily as pigs and sheep by the Ming soldiers, but now, they have encountered a devil, and in the past few days, no less than 100 people have died under the hands of this woman, killing them to the point of chilling. Fortunately, the people of the Ming Dynasty are weak, and this kind of people are only a minority, otherwise, what hope do they have for the Qing Dynasty?
On the Manchu side, the leader was a young general in his thirties, he was tall, because of the battle just now, he lost his helmet, and it could be seen that a blood mark was pulled from his Tianling cover to the root behind his ear, and even the rat's braid was cut off most of it.
Brother Hao stared at the Red Lady deadly, his scar was three days ago, when he broke through the level for the first time, he was carelessly injured by the Red Lady, if it wasn't for his own soldiers who pushed him, his head would have been split in half.
He went to war at the age of thirteen, and it was the first time in twenty years that he had suffered such a big loss, and he was wounded by a woman. Therefore, his eyes showed anger and hatred, and he wanted to kill the red lady alive.
However, as the cold wind blew, his heart gradually calmed down.
This woman in front of him is too terrifying, if he fights again, even if he can destroy these Ming troops in front of him, he himself will kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, and when the time comes, his strength will be weakened, and Dolgon will definitely fall into the ground.
Since Huang Taiji died last year, why Dolgon can be the regent is not because the strong men under Dolgon are like clouds, and although he Haoge can fight well, he has no generals under him, so he naturally has no right to speak. If his strength is lost, I'm afraid he won't even be able to keep his current position.
If he can subdue the female general in front of him, as well as her cavalry, then he will have the capital to compete with Dolgon.
Therefore, Hauge immediately said loudly: "Warriors on the other side, this is the first time I have encountered such a powerful Ming army as yours. I admire you very much, if you are willing to surrender, I can guarantee that the glory and wealth will be inexhaustible, and it is definitely much better than you being a soldier in the Ming Dynasty and being instructed by those bullshit civilian officials!"
After a pause, he added: "I am Haoge, the eldest son of Huang Taiji, and I will never lie to you if I am above 10,000 people under one person in the Qing Dynasty!"
However, the female general on the opposite side was unmoved.
On the battlefield, the only silence was the howling of the north wind and the wheezing of war horses.
Hauge was not in a hurry, even if the other party did not agree, he could take this opportunity to take a break to recover his strength.
After a while, Hauge's eyes froze slightly, and he was immediately filled with gloom.
I saw the red lady ask the person behind her: "So far in the war, we have less than forty percent, more than half of the brothers have fallen, and the next thing that may fall is you, him, and me...... Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!"
"It's already enough!"
"I'm not enough, the second dog asked me to help him kill a few more before he died!"
"General, with you, this group of bitches with rat braids can't help us!"
A group of cavalry, looking at the Red Lady's eyes full of fire and reverence, the soldiers worship the strong the most, and the fighting in the past few days has made them worship the Red Lady for a long time.
The Guanning Iron Cavalry was the most powerful army of the Ming Dynasty, how could they be afraid of death? They had been fighting with the Tartars for more than ten years, and countless brothers had died under the swords of the Tartars, so how could they surrender to the Tartars?
The red lady laughed, pointed at Haoge, and said loudly: "Have you seen it, none of my brothers are afraid of death." Our Majesty is a Son of Heaven and is blessed by the gods, and even if we die in battle, Your Majesty will allow us to go to heaven. And you Tartars can only go to the eighteenth layer of hell and be beasts. ”
At this time, Hauge's face was already full of gloom.
"Guanning Iron Cavalry, attack!" the red lady waved her big sword, and the whole army roared in unison.
At this moment, a cannon rang out.
It's like a bolt from the blue.
A ball of fire fell into the camp of the Tartars' cavalry and exploded.
In an instant, countless Tartar cavalry, with men and horses, turned into minced meat.
Everyone looked in amazement as they looked in the distance, a steel beast, swallowing firelight, rumbled over.
Bang!
Another cannon shot.
