Jin Dashou saw that Ling Jingyang didn't agree with his suggestion, and he couldn't say anything, so he surrendered to Ling Jingyang, but Ling Jingyang asked him to wait and asked him if he would do civil engineering?

"Civil work?"

Jin Dashou was very surprised when he heard this term for the first time, he literally thought that Ling Jingyang asked him to dig a pit and dig a hole, Ling Jingyang did not deny him, and said to him: "Dashou, can you dig a tunnel to the artillery position under the nose of Jiannu, and unknowingly end the Jiannu artillery position in one fell swoop." ”

This is a massive project, Jin Dashou has looked at the terrain of Bailu Mountain these days, digging tunnels from Xiaosong Mountain to the east and west, at least two thousand meters away, and it is expected that the soil of Bailu Mountain is loess, if there is a stone mountain underground, it is almost impossible to dig the artillery position.

"My lord, go and take a look at the terrain again to see if you can dig it up?"

He was eager to try and was in full view of Ling Jingyang, Ling Jingyang struck while the iron was hot, and said to Jin Dashou: "Big hand, the Jiannu artillery position is very far away, if you can't dig it, forget it, you can also dig head-on, dig under the Jiannu Chinese army barracks, and implement the decapitation tactic, which is more fulfilling than destroying the Jiannu artillery." ”

In fact, this is also the tactic that Ling Jingyang suddenly thought of, just like Jin Dashou said, even if the Qing army is defeated, the Qing army relies on the human and material resources of the entire north to continuously transfuse blood for the Qing army.

Ling Jingyang is not good at civil engineering, but he thinks that Jin Dashou can, not only that, Ling Jingyang is also humble and Zhang Luofu, Jiang Hao and other eight generals of the Ming Dynasty to ask for advice, the two were bombarded by the Qing army artillery in the day for a morning, the brain is still buzzing, and the Qing army artillery is hated to the core, if it is not for the whip, he would have rushed down the mountain to chop the Qing army artillery and gunners clean.

When the two of them heard Ling Jingyang's whimsical idea, they were surprised, from Xiaosong Mountain to the camp of the Qing army, at least 1,500 meters, such a distance, it is almost impossible not to alarm the Qing army to dig a pit.

But Ling Jingyang didn't believe in evil, he and Jiang Hao said: "We dig tunnels to the artillery positions on the east and west sides of Jiannu with great fanfare, and let Jiannu guard against the tunnels on the east and west sides.

The real goal of our army is to dig forward, dig 100 meters every day, and it will not take more than ten days to touch the feet of the Qing army, and the Qing army will be killed by night attack, and the Qing army will inevitably be in chaos. ”

Jiang Hao and Zhang Luofu couldn't think of better tactics, so they had to nod and agree, and the three of them did what they said, Zhang Luofu led the troops to dig from the west side, Jiang Hao led the troops to dig from the east side, and Ling Jingyang personally led the Iron Fist Army to dig from the front.

Without waiting for the three of them to make a move, the first strong attack of the Qing army began, Duoduo ordered five thousand green battalion soldiers to attack Xiaosong Mountain, thousands of green battalion soldiers rushed up with shields, most of the green battalion soldiers surrendered to the Ming army, and under the shouting of the general and low-level officers, they scattered and rushed to the Ming army's position.

Mei Shifeng and Jiang Rang are also experienced generals, in the face of the Qing army's attack, the two responded calmly, led the troops to repel the Qing army's attacks again and again, the Qing army did not know that there were tens of thousands of Ming troops in Bailu Mountain, thinking that the Ming army would not use all the troops to support the Henan battlefield, Duoduo thought that there were only more than 10,000 Ming troops at most in Bailu Mountain, and 50,000 soldiers and horses under his command could eat the Ming army.

But he didn't know that the Ming army in Bailu Mountain had more than 40,000 people, and its combat effectiveness might not be as good as that of the Qing army, so it could occupy a defensive advantage and offset the advantage of the Qing army's strong combat effectiveness.

Thousands of green battalion soldiers attacked Xiaosong Mountain, which was garrisoned by more than 10,000 Ming troops, and Duoduo saw that the attacking troops were beaten down again and again, killing and wounding many soldiers, and angrily scolded the green battalion soldiers for being incompetent, but he didn't want to consume the Eight Banners, so Mingjin withdrew his troops.

After the Qing army's attack was repulsed, Ling Jingyang was not surprised, he took Jin Dashou and his own soldiers to Xiaosong Mountain, preparing to carry out civil engineering work here.

Mei Shifeng and Jiang Rang were very excited to repel the Qing army's attack in the battle just now, if it weren't for Ling Jingyang and Jiang Jiu's repeated orders not to go down the mountain to pursue, the two would have carried a big knife to kill.

After Ling Jingyang told the two of them about his intentions, Mei Shifeng slapped his thigh violently, and said to Ling Jingyang: "Dudu, this Tartar artillery is violent, if you dig a pit, I am afraid that it will be collapsed by the artillery halfway through the digging." ”

This made Ling Jingyang a little surprised, but Jin Dashou said to Mei Shifeng: "The Jiannu artillery is very fierce, but it has no ability to smash into the ground, we use trees to top it every time we dig a distance, which can definitely prevent it from collapsing."

Square. ”

Mei Shifeng didn't understand this, Jiang Rang didn't understand it, and after a while, Jiang Hao and Zhang Luofu also came to Xiaosong Mountain with their own soldiers, and ordered the two soldiers and horses to work on the east and west sides, and Ling Jingyang also let the Iron Fist Legion start the operation.

The three armies each found a hidden place, waited until it was dark, began to dig tunnels, dug until midnight, the east side successfully advanced ninety meters, but the west side encountered resistance, there were many underground stone mountains on the entire west side, Mei Shifeng and Zhang Luofu dug three tunnels in one breath, all of which were blocked by stones, and there was no way, so they were forced to give up digging a pit from the west side.

Ling Jingyang was not discouraged, let Mei Shifeng's department assume the main defense of Xiaosong Mountain, and mobilized Dong Daqi's department to settle in Xiaosong Mountain, and the Iron Fist Army carried out wooden map operations together, there was no stone mountain in the front tunnel, and three tunnels were dug in one night, each tunnel was dug to about 100 meters, and the progress was very fast, so that Ling Jingyang was very happy, and when it was almost dawn, all the soldiers involved in the civil engineering operation withdrew to Bailu Mountain to rest.

Only Mei Shifeng and Dong Daqi part of the soldiers and horses continued to garrison Xiaosong Mountain, after the Qing army had breakfast, and carried out a second attack, this time the Qing army changed tactics, the whole army attacked on the west side of Xiaosong Mountain, Duoduo was even more arrogant, the first to capture Xiaosong Mountain, the soldier was promoted to three levels, the reward was five thousand taels of gold, and the generals of the department were promoted to one level, and under the heavy reward, the Qing army soldiers launched an attack like crazy.

The Qing army invested nearly 10,000 troops in this attack, and Ling Jingyang saw that the Qing army launched a fierce attack, and promptly ordered the two troops and horses of Baidun and Wangbao to go to support, and asked Zhang Luofu to lead the reserve army to make his soldiers a reserve.

Jiang Hao also cheered up, and took his generals to pay attention to the battlefield, he was not weaker than the Qing army in battlefield command, especially the battlefield on the eastern side of Xiaosong Mountain, he thought that the Qing army would adopt the tactics of attacking the east and the west, and there was a tunnel on the east side, which could not be discovered by the Qing army.

More than 10,000 green battalion soldiers attacked from the east side, and were beaten down by Mei Shifeng and his subordinates with bows and arrows, fire guns, and stones, and the Qing army also used bows, arrows, fire guns and other weapons to fight back.

At this moment, a Qing army of more than 1,000 people rushed out of the barracks, they were the Eight Banners soldiers who lived in the deep mountains and old forests all the year round, but they were disgusted by Duoduo and other Eight Banner soldiers, calling them wild Jurchens.
