Chapter 296: Counterattack (7)
Liu Zongmin immediately ordered to abandon Tongguan, the whole army retreated to Huayin, more than 1,000 wounded soldiers in the pass refused to retreat, they decided to do the last battle for Dashun, Liu Zongmin and Li Guo had no choice, so they had to leave weapons to retreat to Huayin.
More than 1,000 wounded soldiers who were inconvenient to move were all blocked at the opening of the city wall, holding all kinds of weapons, watching their comrades leave, and then roaring at the Qing army.
Come on, bitch
Grandson, grandpa is here
They are ready to die, and they are not afraid of death, waiting for the last moment to come.
......
Ao Bai was angrily reprimanding the generals of the Qing army who returned to help, he and the Eight Banners could completely block the surprise attack of the Dashun army, and there was no need to come back to support, and suddenly a scout rushed back to report, saying that the Dashun army suddenly broke through to the west, and asked for instructions on whether to pursue.
At this time, it was getting late, and the pursuit of the Dashun army was easy to be counterattacked by the Dashun army, Ao Bai squinted his eyes and ordered the whole army to occupy Tongguan, and wait for the pursuit of the Dashun army after dawn.
Tens of thousands of Qing troops marched towards Tongguan with weapons in their hands, thinking that the Dashun army could easily occupy Tongguan if they withdrew, but dozens of Qing soldiers who walked in the forefront were killed and wounded by more than 1,000 wounded soldiers of the Dashun army with bows and arrows.
"Heaven Descends"
The Qing army behind thought that the Dashun army was cheating, and hurriedly stopped advancing, Aobai did not waste valuable troops, and ordered to bombard, the Qing army's large and small artillery bombarded the mouth of the city wall, and more than 1,000 wounded soldiers of the Dashun army were blown into pieces of meat by the Qing army's artillery, and after the Qing army's artillery bombardment stopped, the wounded soldiers were all killed.
The Qing army stepped on the corpses of the soldiers of the Dashun Army to complete the occupation of Tongguan, and Ao Bai entered Tongguan with the attitude of a victor, looked at the corpses in one place, and said to Wu Sangui: "Bury the corpses, and Tongguan will be my Daqing Xiongguan in the future." ”
Wu Sangui looked at the Dashun army on the ground with the Ming people of the same clan, there was no mercy in his eyes, and his subordinates ordered to dig a pit, throw the body into it and bury it, and then he and Aobai asked for battle, and asked to lead the troops to pursue the Dashun army, Aobai did not rush forward, and ordered the whole army to rest in Tongguan, and then go to pursue the Dashun army after dawn.
But Wu Sangui wanted to show something, and repeatedly asked to lead the troops and horses of his headquarters
Pursuing the Dashun army, Ao Bai was also happy to see Wu Sangui pursuing the Dashun army, and ordered Wu Sangui to lead the Guanning army in his headquarters to pursue the Dashun army.
According to the previous plan, the Dashun army retreated to Huayin and arranged an ambush circle in Huayin, this time Liu Zongmin did not retreat, and ambushed in Huayin City with Li Guo, waiting for the Qing army's forward troops.
After dawn, the Dashun army was all hidden outside the city of Huayin, Wu Sangui also led the Guanning army to kill outside the city of Huayin, Wu Sangui ordered to stop advancing, he was afraid that the Dashun army was ambushed in Huayin, in his opinion, Huayin is a very suitable place for ambushes,
He ordered the troops to camp five miles away from Huayin City, waiting for the arrival of Aobai, Aobai led the main force of the Qing army to rest in Tongguan for a night, after dawn, he led the main force of soldiers and horses to pursue the Dashun army, only in Tongguan to guard two thousand soldiers and horses.
Ao Bai arrived in Huayin City, it was already the afternoon of the same day, Wu Sangui saw him coming, and reported to him that he did not rush into Huayin, because the Dashun army may set up an ambush in Huayin City, Ao Bai did not scold him, but he praised him for his vision, and after he could not capture Tongguan, he was hit by the Dashun army in a counter-raid campaign.
After all the Qing troops arrived in Huayin, Ao Bai ordered the army to attack Huayin City, and suddenly rushed out from the rear A small number of Qing troops, these Qing troops only had dozens of people, but they were all disgraced, Ao Bai looked, this is not the troops he left behind in Tongguan?
Why did it take less than half a day, it became like this, a Qing army leader cried to him: "Dutong, you led the troops to pursue the Dashun army, and suddenly rushed from Pingyang Mansion to the Dashun army, with nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, rushed in from the unrepaired Tongguan city wall, and killed the remaining troops to almost the entire army, leaving us to retreat." ”
Aobai's eyes were dark, he would never have dreamed that he captured Tongguan last night, and was recaptured by the Dashun army today, he asked which Dashun army was the leader, the Qing army was the Eight Banners, and he didn't know the Dashun army, but a green battalion soldier put the total and Aobai said: "The small one has seen the Dashun army, it seems to be the left battalion of the Dashun army." ”
The generals of the Qing army were very curious, where did this Dashun army come from?
The loss of Tongguan forced Ao Bai to lead the troops to retreat, and Wu Sangui also wanted to rest and pursue the Dashun army, but he thought that Tongguan would not be recaptured, and he was afraid that he would be cold by Dolgon
fell, had to follow behind Aobai, and tens of thousands of troops went to Tongguan to kill.
Ao Bai led the Qing army to retreat suddenly, so that the middle camp in the ambush in Huayin City, and the two troops of the rear camp looked confused, Li Guo and Liu Zongmin were also veterans of the battlefield, and at a glance, it was clear that the Qing army was withdrawing, and there must be other armies threatening the Qing army in the rear, and the two immediately followed with their troops.
The Qing army ran back and forth, becoming a tired division, the Dashun army rested for a day in Huayin, and had sufficient physical strength, but they did not fight with the Qing army, but followed behind, and waited until Aobai withdrew to Tongguan, it was midnight, Aobai ordered the troops to camp, half of the soldiers were stationed on the periphery of the barracks, and the other half of the soldiers rested, and after dawn, they fought to the death with the Dashun army.
Dozens of days ago, he led the left battalion to assist in garrisoning Datong Mansion, and waited for the opportunity to support the Ming army of Taiyuan Mansion, but the Qing army did not attack Taiyuan Mansion, but stormed Datong Mansion, and after a fierce battle, Datong Mansion was lost, and he was forced to lead the troops to retreat to Yan'an Mansion.
After the Qing army captured Datong Mansion, they continued to attack Yan'an Mansion, Ling Jingyang and Jiang Jiu led the troops to raid Datong City and failed, without forcing the main force of the Qing army to return to help, Azig was able to lead the main force of the Qing army to continue to attack Yan'an Mansion, and the Dashun army of Yan'an Mansion was defeated and was forced to retreat to Xi'an Mansion.
It was at that time that he received a holy decree from Xi'an City, ordering the left and right battalions to withdraw to Shaanxi, and the right battalion went to the north of Xi'an Province to assist His Majesty in resisting the attack of the Qing army of the Azig Division.
The left battalion supported Tongguan, after Liu Fangliang received the holy decree, he immediately led the left battalion troops from Yan'an Mansion to support the Tongguan battlefield, Liu Fangliang did not cross Shaanxi, but led the left battalion from Yan'an Mansion into Shanxi, from the west of Taiyuan Mansion to Pingyang Mansion, defeated a small number of local Qing troops, and the whole army rushed to aid Tongguan.
When the left battalion arrived at the battlefield, he only saw the Qing army rushing from Tongguan to Huayin, Liu Fangliang was almost desperate,
He worked tirelessly, led the soldiers of the left battalion to support Tongguan, but was still the Qing army to capture Tongguan first, Liu Fangliang wanted to commit suicide in grief and anger, the general Liu Rukui suddenly saw that the Qing army almost all left Tongguan to go to Huayin, only left a small number of soldiers and horses in the city to garrison, and this small number of soldiers and horses were not defending Tongguan, but mostly repairing the city wall.
