Chapter 497: Bloody Battle of Xiangyang Mansion (4)

The generals present were in an uproar, Zhang Xianzhong, the demon king of the mixed world, died?

Many faces showed happy expressions, but immediately there were expressions of fear, Ling Jingyang and everyone analyzed that Zhang Xianzhong was killed in battle, the Great Western Army was in danger, and it was necessary to quickly defeat the Boluo Army and go to Wudang Mountain to reinforce the Great Western Army.

This is the most important task at present, Huang Degong stood up suddenly.

"Lao Tzu brought a hundred general cannons this time, and tomorrow he will bombard the Jiannu military camp."

Ling Jingyang thought that he had heard it wrong, the Ming army was inferior to the Qing army in terms of firearms, how could Huang Degong have so many artillery, and they were all general's cannons second only to the red-coated cannons.

Perhaps seeing Ling Jingyang's doubts, Huang Degong was very proud to tell everyone that these cannons were bought by Qu Shiyun, the governor of Guangxi, from the red-haired devil.

The red-haired devil's firearms are ahead of the East Asian continent, but no matter how far they lead, the general's cannon is also very valuable, how can you say that you can sell it?

Jin Sheng was also confused, he was curious about Qu Shiyun, how could he have the money to buy a cannon?

"I also heard that the red-haired devil has been jumping hard recently, in Luzon and Java are their fleets, Lord Qu originally wanted to go to Macao to hire some pikemen, hey, this red-haired devil actually gave Lord Qu 300 musket team, and almost half sold and half sold, gave Lord Qu 200 cannons and hundreds of firearms."

The red-haired devil's ship cannon is an upgraded version of the general's cannon, and its power is not below the power of the red-clothed cannon, but the Ming army still calls it the general's cannon.

With so many artillery pieces at once, the Ming army's chances of victory have greatly increased, and Ling Jingyang is also full of confidence.

Huang Degong talked to everyone that it was better to attack the Qing army the day after tomorrow and defeat the Boluo army in one fell swoop.

He was so anxious, but Ling Jingyang touched his chin.

I thought that when the Huangde Power Department arrived, with so many artillery, it would definitely be seen by the Qing army scouts.

The Qing army will definitely not let the Ming army bombard with so many artillery, maybe the Qing army will attack again tonight, he and Huang Degong said: "General soldier, you brought so many artillery, Jiannu is red-eyed." ”

Everyone is an old Jianghu, and as soon as Ling Jingyang's words fell, many generals thought that the Qing army might attack first tonight.

Huang Degong's eyebrows shrugged up, and he couldn't wait to go back now

Arrange the defense, Ling Jingyang and he suggested that an ambush could be set up tonight to lure the Qing army into the ambush circle and give the Qing army a head-on attack.

Huang Degong nodded again and again, sat down and listened to Jingyang to deploy a military plan, he planned to lay troops and horses in the artillery position, and the Qing army would kill as many as they wanted.

Ke Ling Jingyang had a more ambitious plan, and Huang Degong said softly: "Tonight, your troops and horses ambushed the Qing army, and our troops and horses raided the Qing army's base camp. ”

This is a very risky military operation, because the Jin Sheng Department was defeated by the Qing army, losing tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, the Ming army is not as large as the Qing army in numbers, Ling Jingyang led the troops to break through the siege and learn, the Ming army was scattered, and it is possible that the Qing army was successfully raided tonight.

"This star really wants to retire"

Huang Degong did not agree, but Jin Sheng firmly supported Ling Jingyang.

"General Huang, we don't have many soldiers and horses, if we don't go sideways, I'm afraid we will be boiled to death by the Qing army."

The two giants are supportive, and Huang Degong and Ling Jingyang Jin Sheng are heartfelt.

His troops rushed from Nanzhili, and along the way, many soldiers were exhausted, and more than 1,000 people suffered from heat stroke and lay in the barracks.

Ambushed the Qing army tonight, without listening to the Jingyang Division, with his soldiers and horses, it was almost impossible to win.

This was what Ling Jingyang and Jin Sheng did not expect, Jin Sheng said that he still had 6,000 soldiers and horses, and he was willing to ambush the Qing army with Huang Degong tonight.

But such a few soldiers and horses are still not enough, Ling Jingyang thought for a while, let Lao Mantou and Zhang Shun assist in the ambush, and he led the other troops to attack the base camp of the Qing army.

Huang Degong saw that Ling Jingyang gave him all the troops at the bottom of the box, gritted his teeth, and decided to do just that.

After everyone finished the meeting, they turned back to prepare, Ling Jingyang asked Zhang Shun and Lao Mantou to enter Huang Degong's artillery position, and Huang Degong ambushed the Qing army.

Lao Mantou and Zhang Shun did not complain, the two returned to the barracks, gathered their soldiers and horses, waited until it was dark, brought bows and arrows, and quietly entered the artillery position of Huang Degong's department.

After the two entered the position, they found that they were all ambushed soldiers by the Huang Department, and the two reported to Huang Degong, who asked them to go to the rear as a reserve, he didn't want to owe Ling Jingyang a favor, let alone be looked down upon.

Ling Jingyang was also silently preparing in the military camp, and he was confident that he would defeat Bolo this time, because he also had secrets

The weapon is not a rifle platoon, nor is it a general cannon of Huang Degong, but a grenade captured in the extermination of Lan Dazuo and other Fusang soldiers.

In that battle, the Ming army captured a whole basket of grenade bullets, more than 400 of them, and the grenade bullets were carried by the rifle platoon, and when the battle with the Qing army was fierce, these 400 grenade bullets were thrown out, which was enough to make the Qing army's army collapse and collapse.

The troops and horses are ready, waiting for dark to attack the Qing army, the two ladies are very worried about Ling Jingyang, Bai Lushui is very good at bows and arrows, she asked to go to the battlefield with Ling Jingyang, but Ling Jingyang gave him a task to protect himself, as well as Wen Mandarin Duck.

Wen Yuanyang pouted, she has practiced the big knife these days, from not being able to lift the big knife, to being able to swing three times, she has made great progress, and she is also clamoring to go to the battlefield with Ling Jingyang.

"It's not obedient, is it?"

Ling Jingyang told the two girls to shut up with one sentence, and Ling Jingyang said again: "When I come back, I want to eat ham." ”

After speaking, Ling Jingyang picked up the big knife, left the barracks where the two ladies slept, and came to the open space of the barracks.

Gao Ding, Shi Lan, Wei Lan, He Zhen and other generals are here, and thousands of soldiers in the military camp are sitting silently on the ground waiting to leave.

Ling Jingyang subconsciously said: "Like the wind, you go ahead..."

Suddenly remembering that Li Rufeng was no longer there, Gao Ding on the side immediately stepped forward and said to him: "Dudu, the last general is willing to go." ”

"Okay, your department is the vanguard, and the other troops and horses will follow, and I will pull out the camp for Lao Tzu tonight."

roar

Nearly 20,000 officers and men of the Ming army attacked the Qing army camp from the northwest under the cover of night.

……

In the Qing army camp, Bolo was also waving to Wu Sangui, and during the day, scouts kept coming back to report to him, and Ming reinforcements arrived on the battlefield.

Bolo didn't care, isn't it Huang Degong's troops, what's so scary.

But soon, more scouts sent him information that the Ming army was carrying a large number of artillery, which were larger than the red-coat cannons in terms of caliber.

Bolo felt incredible, he asked the scouts to continue the operation, until the scouts from all walks of life sent him, the Ming army had hundreds of large-caliber artillery, he realized that the Ming army was stronger than he thought, and he had to pull out the Ming artillery unit before the Ming army attacked.
