Chapter 388: Rushing to the aid of Ningwuguan (3)
opened his mouth that he was also going to Datong Mansion, but Ling Jingyang asked him to lead his troops to stay at Ningwu Pass.
Li Rufeng was a little unhappy, Ling Jingyang said: "There are thousands of troops in the pass, and you need to be here to town, and there are old steamed buns, I asked him to form an artillery battalion, and you have time to guide him." ”
"The governor asked me to deter the surrender of troops, I can do this, but let me guide the old steamed buns, and I won't be able to shoot cannons?"
"Let you go and support the old steamed bun, the old steamed bun is either a coat or a gunner of the Qing army, you give him more support, and in the future, your cavalry and artillery will be our army's offensive weapons."
Li Rufeng stayed at Ningwu Pass at the request of Ling Jingyang, and Ling Jingyang remembered that Gao Ding was the guard of Ningwu Pass before, and let him continue to be in Ningwu Pass, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart, so he decided to take Gao Ding to Datong Mansion together.
After doing this, Ling Jingyang returned to the mansion, came to the room, and saw Wen Mandarin Duck standing at the base of the wall, Ling Jingyang asked her what she was doing?
Wen Yuanyang looked aggrieved, she ate too much tonight, and standing up will promote digestion, which is what Ling Jingyang used nutrition to fool her just now.
Ling Jingyang laughed when he heard this, and suddenly hugged her and threw her on the bed, and a battle that was fiercer than the Qing army's red-clothed cannon began.
After dawn the next day, Ling Jingyang woke up from his sleep, the weather was a little cool today, he touched his forehead, he had a fever, and touched Wen Yuanyang's forehead, no fever, it seems that last night was too intense, and there was a small cold.
He got up from the bed and put on his armor, Wen Yuanyang was awakened by him, saw Ling Jingyang wearing a military uniform, and after getting up and putting on clothes, he put on an arm guard for Ling Jingyang.
"Official, you have to take care."
"Don't worry, there is no Jiannu who can kill your officials yet."
Ling Jingyang came to the barracks of the directly subordinate troops, Mei Shaozuo had already gathered 100 personal soldiers, 900 soldiers of the directly subordinate troops, Ling Jingyang ordered the direct troops and the Iron Fist Legion to open the way in front, Wang Mu and Mi Shengguang also organized 1,000 men and women to manually escort grain and grass for the army.
Zhang Shunbu and Gao Dingbu's task is to protect grain and grass, thousands of people marched towards Datong Mansion, after walking out of twenty miles, they came to Yangfang County, the junction of Taiyuan Mansion and Datong Mansion, where a Dashun army team was stationed.
The general of the Dashun army defending the city, after seeing that it was the Ming army, immediately opened the city gate and invited Ling Jingyang to enter the city to rest.
Ling Jingyang looked at this Dashun army defending the city, and felt a little too enthusiastic, he did not lead the troops into the city, but summoned Gao Ding, Zhang Shun, and the two and said: "This Yangfang city is going to the important place of Datong Mansion, which should be garrisoned by our army, not occupied by the Dashun army." ”
Zhang Shun felt that Ling Jingyang was a bit nonsense, and he said: "Governor, the Dashun army is lone and deep, and the garrison here can be regarded as keeping the retreat road smooth. ”
Ling Jingyang pointed to the soldiers of the Dashun Army on the city wall.
"The Dashun army is only more than 9,000 people, and it lost thousands of soldiers and horses in Shuo County yesterday, how can so many troops be stationed here?"
Zhang Shun and Gao Ding saw that there were at least hundreds of soldiers of the Dashun Army on the city wall, and there should be more soldiers of the Dashun Army inside, and neither of them was silent, Ling Jingyang thought for a while and decided to make a detour to Datong Mansion.
Gao Ding hurriedly said: "Dudu, it will take a day to make a detour." ”
"Then one more day, this Dashun army is very strange, we can't risk entering the city and being ambushed."
Ling Jingyang led the troops to the northwest of Yangfang County, and after he left, in Yangfang City, the guard who was talking to Ling Jingyang just now took off his helmet and exposed the pigtails behind his head, which turned out to be the Qing army's pretence.
Seeing that Ling Jingyang did not enter the city, the leader of the Qing army snorted coldly, and actually ordered the entire city to gather soldiers and horses to attack Ling Jingyang.
After a while, the two thousand Qing troops in Yangfang City went out of the city with big swords and spears, and the Qing generals didn't know that the person he was going to pursue was Ling Jingyang, and thought that it was a Ming army food protection team, with more than 2,000 people, enough to wipe out this team.
Ling Jingyang had already discovered that this group of Qing troops was the most taboo in the back, and after leading the army through a valley, he asked the people to take grain and grass to the other side of the valley, and he led the troops to ambush on both sides of the mountain pass.
The Qing army came to the valley, Zuo Ling ordered to stop advancing, he asked a small number of cavalry to go to the valley to see if there was an ambush of the Ming army, Ling Jingyang wanted to ambush the Qing army in the valley, seeing that the Qing army did not dare to come in, and did not continue to ambush, with a wave of his hand, the whole army covered the past.
More than 2,000 soldiers of the Ming army rushed out from both sides of the mountain col and launched a fierce attack on the Qing army.
This group of Qing army only has dozens of people such as Zuo Ling are Eight Banner soldiers, and the rest are all green battalion soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the Eight Banner Soldiers.
After the two armies fought together, the Qing army leader realized that he was wrong, the green battalion soldiers were beaten so that they couldn't raise their heads, they were either hacked to death, or stabbed to death, and after the battle, they were defeated by the Ming army, they turned around and ran, and the leader was also killed and retreated.
He ordered a retreat, as long as he withdrew to Yangfang City, he would be able to rely on the city wall to resist the attack of the Ming army, Ling Jingyang asked Gao Ding to go back to protect the grain and grass, and he led his direct troops, the Iron Fist Legion, Zhang Shun and other troops to pursue the Qing army.
The Qing army retreated quickly, at least with Ling Jingyang and others
Pulling a distance of five or six hundred meters, Zuo Ling rode a tall horse, ran in the front, and could withdraw to the city in less than ten minutes.
At this time, in Yangfang City, the Qing soldiers who stayed behind were being ruthlessly slaughtered.
Slaughtering them was Xu Sheng and Wild Jurchen and other dozens of people, after the main force of the Qing army went out of the city, a group swaggered to the city, asked the green battalion soldiers in the city to open the city gate, Xu Sheng shouted loudly in Ming on the side, this is the Eight Banners Man, the soldiers in the city quickly opened the city gate.
There are also a few Eight Banner soldiers in the city, they asked the wild Jurchen in Manchu, and the wild Jurchen has become a Ming army, but they are still the Jurchen race after all, and after they returned to the city in Manchu, the Eight Banners heard that they were familiar with the Manchu language and ordered to open the city gate.
After Xu Sheng, Ye Jurchen and others entered the city, they quickly seized the advantageous terrain and killed in the city.
There are only more than 100 Qing troops in the city, and they are all scattered on the city wall, the wild girl is invincible in the city, the Qing army in the city was wiped out in less than half an hour, the wild girl is really killing, Xu Sheng led his own soldiers to fight the autumn wind in the back, and also killed dozens of Qing soldiers.
The Qing army leader withdrew to the city with his troops, but found that the city gate was closed, and he scolded the city and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate.
No one responded to him, but an arrow fell from the sky, and Zuo Ling was very keen to dodge the arrow, and in the next second, dozens of arrows were shot, piercing Zuo Ling into a hedgehog.
Ling Jingyang also led the troops to kill under the city, shouting that the Qing soldiers could live as long as they threw away their weapons, and hundreds of Qing soldiers who were forced to the city threw away their weapons and surrendered, Ling Jingyang asked Zhang Shun to tie up these people and take them to Datong City tomorrow.
Ling Jingyang took the troops to rest in the city, Xu Sheng and the wild nuzhen came to him, Ling Jingyang was very satisfied with the performance of the wild nuzhen, so he let the twenty-two wild nuzhen and the twenty personal soldiers brought by Xu Sheng become his internal guard team, and Xu Sheng became the chief of the guard of this personal team.
Mei Shaozuo in today's battle, successfully cut off a Qing army general head, but also killed and injured several Qing soldiers, he carried the Qing army to the head of the head to Ling Jingyang to ask for credit, suddenly saw Xu Sheng and others were promoted to guard chief, his heart was sour, Ling Jingyang said: "Mei Shaozuo, from now on, you will lead a hundred personal soldiers, as the head of the outer guard guard." ”
Mei Shaozuo is in everyone's eyes, he is the replacement of Yue Ling, but Ling Jingyang has not officially appointed him as the leader of the pro-army, after being appointed today, Mei Shaozuo still cares what kind of internal guard Xu Sheng is, what kind of external guard he is, and runs to Xu Sheng to show off.
Ling Jingyang decided to rest in the city for a day, and tomorrow he went to Datong Mansion, Zhang Shun asked Ying, willing to open the way for the army, Ling Jingyang approved, Zhang Shun took dozens of cavalry Anton Zhongtun guards to go, but Ling Jingyang asked him to wait for a while, so that Xu Sheng led the internal guard guards to follow, so that Xu Sheng could get more experience.
