Chapter 409: Reinforcements (8)
The Qing army had 5,000 soldiers and horses in Huanghualing, most of them were infantry, and they were all green battalion soldiers, but the top general of the Qing army was indeed a deputy commander of the Eight Banners, and there were 500 and 8 banners under his command.
Azig asked the deputy capital to be stationed in Huanghualing, which shows that Azig attaches great importance to Huanghualing's baggage, and the deputy capital Rongzhi is conscientious in Huanghualing, but he also has a fatal flaw, that is, he is lustful, there are no women in Huanghualing, so Rong Lan took his subordinates to the nearby villages to find women.
The whole Liaozhou is a scorched earth, where are there many people, let alone see a woman, Rong Zhi turned around the nearby villages, deep mountains and old forests, and did not see a woman, so angry that he wanted to lead the army to Taiyuan City, maybe there are still women in Taiyuan City.
He didn't know that the 5,000 Qing soldiers in Huanghualing had Eight Banners and Green Battalions, most of these thousands of Green Battalions were Ming troops, a small number of Dashun troops, and more than 1,000 young soldiers, but these Green Battalion soldiers were mixed with Fusang people.
After the Fusang people were killed by Major General Mei, the highest spy in Shanxi, there was almost no Fusang force in Shanxi, and in the Fusang Special High School in Shandong, he received a secret order from the emperor to select capable generals to sneak into Shanxi again, and be sure to provoke the Shanxi Ming army, the Dashun army, and the Qing army to continue fighting.
Fuso's special high school in Shandong selected new intelligence officers to enter Shanxi, and 20 samurai action groups headed by Major General Zhu defected to the Qing army and became the green battalion soldiers in the Qing army.
At this time, Major General Zhu assumed the pseudonym Zhu Jiang and served as the commander of the Huanghualing Green Battalion, and his subordinates had 20 Fusang warriors and more than 60 Ming people in the Green Battalion.
In his eyes, these green battalion soldiers have very military experience, most of them are veterans with many years of military experience, not for faith, nor for someone, but for money and women, as long as there is money and women, these green battalion soldiers can work for you, and they can also conquer the city for you, but after breaking the city, the things in the city will be robbed by the green battalion soldiers.
This made Major General Zhu feel very confident, and after the Fusang Army landed on the Korean Peninsula and conquered the Koreans, he could use the money to buy the Green Battalion soldiers to fight for the Fuso Army.
At that time, whether it was the Qing army, the Ming army, the Dashun army, and the Daxi army, they would all surrender to the feet of the Fusang Empire.
Less bamboo
The general green battalion is just a general, but he is very concerned about the changes in the strength of the Qing army and the Ming army in Shanxi, the Qing army besieged Yicheng and almost broke through Yicheng, which made him very dissatisfied, if the Qing army broke through Yicheng and destroyed the Chongzhen court, wouldn't it be the Qing army's dominance?
For this reason, he wanted to weaken the Qing army, but he was not so capable, so he wanted to assassinate the commander of the Qing army, just like Major General Mei assassinated Ling Jingyang, and Major General Zhu really made a plan to assassinate Rongzhi, the deputy capital of the Qing army in Huanghualing.
Ke Rongzhi took his subordinates to look for a woman nearby these days, Major General Zhu and his subordinates had no chance to assassinate him, and Major General Zhu wanted to set fire to the grain and grass of the Qing army, so that the Qing army would lose supplies and had to retreat.
Not long ago, the latest battle report came back from Yicheng, Azig failed to attack Yicheng, and Major General Zhu gave up burning the baggage of the Qing army, but tried his best to take his subordinates to prevent fire in the jurisdiction, in order to let the Qing army continue to attack the Ming army.
In order to let the Qing army and the Ming army continue to bleed, it can be said that he racked his brains, if he was not in Huanghualing, he would have led his subordinates to attack the Ming army in Yicheng, on this day, suddenly there were scouts in the border area of Liaozhou and Taiyuan Mansion, and came back to report to Rongzhi.
There is a cavalry team of the Ming army coming to Liaozhou, Rong Zhi was also confused by the scouts, the whole Taiyuan is the Qing army, how can there be Ming cavalry?
He wanted to take the troops to meet with the Ming army for a while, but he remembered that he had the responsibility to defend the territory, and his task was to protect the Huanghualing baggage, which could support the Azig Qing army to withdraw to Beizhili, and it was also the baggage that Azig relied on the most.
He ordered the troops to withdraw to Huanghualing, with 5,000 soldiers and horses and the terrain of Huanghualing, it could completely withstand the attack of tens of thousands of Ming troops, and Rongzhi waited for the Ming army to attack in Huanghualing.
Ling Jingyang did not disappoint him, and led the cavalry to break into Europe, but did not attack Huanghualing, but the whole army attacked the nearby Maling Pass to the east.
The Ming army killed to Maling Pass, there were hundreds of Qing soldiers in Maling Pass, before the Ming army killed, they had already given up defense and retreated to Huanghualing, Ling Jingyang came to Maling Pass again, he was very familiar with here, let Li Rufeng lead five hundred cavalry to lurk in the mountains,
He led the other cavalry to Yushe County to kill, pretending not to know that there was a burden of the Qing army in Huanghualing.
Rong Zhi's scout at the foot of Huanghua Ridge saw the Ming army going in the direction of Yushe, and hurriedly came back to report to him.
Rong Zhi learned that the Ming army went to other places, and began to enter the mode of looking for women, and the Ming army left, he could just go to Taiyuan City to ask for reinforcements, in fact, he just wanted to go to Taiyuan City to find women.
Rong Zhi went to the direction of Taiyuan City, and the Qing soldiers in Huanghualing had long been accustomed to it, and without his order, the Qing soldiers were not allowed to go down the mountain.
Ling Jingyang did not go to Yushe, still twenty miles away from Yushe, led the troops to go back, and arrived at Huanghualing, but found that the Qing soldiers of Huanghualing did not go down the mountain, although they did not lure the Qing army down the mountain, but Ling Jingyang also knew that Huanghualing was heavily guarded by the Qing army, and it was determined that this was the Qing army's baggage.
How to capture Huanghualing, Ling Jingyang really thought about it, in the face of a large number of Qing troops, the Ming army seemed to have no better way to attack.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
At this time, Wei Lan came to Ling Jingyang and said to Ling Jingyang: "Dudu, the last general used to be stationed in Huanghualing, and he knew a small road, which could be touched after dark, and a fire burned the mountain, so that Jiannu was busy fighting the fire, and our army could kill the mountain, and take advantage of the chaos of the Qing army to destroy this Qing army." ”
Ling Jingyang didn't believe Wei Lan very much, and he didn't worry about letting more than a thousand elite cavalry climb the mountain to sneak attack, Wei Lan saw Ling Jingyang's distrust, and said to Ling Jingyang: "Governor, can you let other soldiers go with me, take a look to know if I'm sincere, or fake?" ”
"Don't be suspicious of employing people, don't use suspicious people, tonight General Qin and I will launch a feint attack on the front, cover for you, you bring people to touch it, and burn the slave for Lao Tzu and withdraw it."
Ling Jingyang didn't want to eat the baggage of the Qing army, as long as he burned the baggage of the Qing army and then spread the news, the Qing army in Yicheng would collapse without a fight.
In the evening, Ling Jingyang and Qin Lie led hundreds of cavalry to call for battle at the foot of Huanghua Ridge, and most of the Qing troops on the mountain were concentrated in front of Ling Jingyang, and the Ming army scolded the army, and the two armies scolded very happily.
Wei Lan took Xu Sheng and more than 50 other soldiers of the Ming army, brought gunpowder and fire folds, and prepared to touch a small road on the north side of Huanghualing, and Li Rufeng also led the troops to the east side of Huanghualing, where he shot arrows into the mountains, successfully attracting the attention of the Qing army.
