Chapter 503: Bloody Battle of Xiangyang Mansion (10)
The Qing army, which fell into collapse, ran frantically on the battlefield, the Ming army and the Great Western Army went crazy, as long as they saw the Qing army that did not surrender, they would go up and be hacked to death.
Ling Jingyang saw the army that raided the Qing army on the fort, he thought it was Du Yinxi who arrived in advance and led his troops to attack, but when he looked at it again, that army was not the uniform of the Ming army, it was actually the Great Western Army?
At this time, the Qing army collapsed, and Ling Jingyang immediately thought that the Great Western Army and Huang Degong had a deep blood feud, but he couldn't let the Great Western Army and Huang Degong fight among themselves, so he hurriedly gathered the soldiers of the artillery battalion and rushed towards the battlefield.
On the battlefield, Li Dingguo was still tirelessly killing the enemy, and Huang Degong was also slashing and killing the Qing soldiers, and the two of them actually killed in the same area.
Hacking to death the last Qing soldier standing in the middle of the two armies, Li Dingguo and Huang Degong looked at each other.
"Huang Degong?"
"The Great West Thief?"
Although Huang Degong won, he also lost a lot of soldiers and horses, the two almost drew their swords, eager to kill each other, and the soldiers on both sides were also hanging their last breath, determined to continue to fight to the death.
At this moment, a soldier and horse rushed out of the crowd, it was the artillery battalion led by Ling Jingyang, and he shouted victoriously: "Jiannu is just a defeat, don't want the relatives to be bitter and the enemy to be happy." ”
A loud shout woke up both Daxi Jun and Huang Degong,
Ling Jingyang came between the two and was very angry.
"Jiannu is still in Xiangyang Mansion, and when Jiannu is driven away, you will fight the sky, and Lao Tzu will treat it as if you haven't seen it."
The Great Western Army was originally small, and after a bloody battle, there were more than 1,000 people left, if it wasn't for Ling Jingyang, they would have been eaten by Huang Degong in one go, which Ling Jingyang didn't want to see.
Huang Degong also heard that Ling Jingyang and the Great Western Army resisted the Qing Dynasty, and now it seems that Ling Jingyang has a great relationship with the Great Western Army.
The number of Huang Degong's troops was not as large as Ling Jingyang's subordinates, so he rashly launched an attack, and it was not good that he would be eaten by Ling Jingyang and the Great Western Army.
He held back his anger and said to Ling Jingyang: "If it weren't for the national disaster, these traitors would have been chopped up and fed to the dogs. ”
Li Dingguo is also undiminished, and fiercely refuted Huang Degong, if he hadn't led the army to fight to the death today, everyone present would probably have become headless corpses.
The battlefield was very weird, in order to avoid conflict, Ling Jingyang asked Huang De's power department to go back.
He also ordered the Iron Fist Legion to escort the Great Western Army to the fort, and Jin Sheng also came out to persuade Huang Degong, don't want to have internal friction at this time, not only the Ming Dynasty, but there are not many armed forces in the pass that can compete with the Qing army.
Under the persuasion of Jin Sheng, Huang Degong temporarily held back his anger, in his heart, the Great Western Army and the Great Shun Army were still the anti-thieves of the imperial court and must be punished.
He sullenly took his subordinates back to the barracks, and saw that there was a large group of prisoners in the barracks, and he stepped forward to cut them, where did the Qing soldiers see such a ruthless person, thinking that they were going to be slaughtered, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for their lives.
Huang Degong and his generals waved their hands and asked if this group of Qing soldiers surrendered, and those who surrendered were incorporated into the army on the spot, and if they did not surrender, they were cut down on the spot.
None of the thousands of Qing army prisoners did not surrender, and a small number of prisoners of the Eight Banners were afraid of death, mixed with the green battalion soldiers, and also became Ming soldiers.
Huang Degong's troops regained some strength, and he and his subordinates shouted: "Give the barracks to Lao Tzu to clean up." ”
He was thirsty and hungry, there was a shortage of food in the army, and it could not be delivered until late at the earliest, when he suddenly saw the Qing army camp, perhaps there was grain and grass there.
So he took a small number of cavalry and ran towards the abandoned barracks of the Qing army, hoping to find some grain and grass in the barracks of the Qing army.
Dozens of horsemen rushed to the Qing army barracks, and Huang Degong was dressed in the uniform of the general army, and it was obvious that he was running in the open space.
Ling Jingyang and Li Dingguo were resting on the fort, the two fought side by side again, and they were very excited, especially Ling Jingyang, if it wasn't for the sudden attack of the Great Western Army today, he, Huang Degong, and Jin Sheng would have become the meal on the plate of the Qing army.
Li Dingguo saw Huang Degong riding his horse and galloping.
"Governor Lingdu, where is Huang Chuangzi going?"
Ling Jingyang also saw Huang Degong running towards the Qing army barracks, and said with a smile: "Maybe go to the Qing army barracks to see if there are any trophies?" ”
The two didn't care about Huang Degong, and Huang Degong didn't care about others, he just wanted to find grain and grass to fill the stomachs of the soldiers.
There are still corpses of the Qing army in the barracks that were killed by the Ming army last night, but there are also soldiers who are lucky not to die and are lying unconscious on the ground.
A white flag bull was knocked unconscious last night and has been in a coma until now before waking up.
He tried to open his eyes, saw that there were corpses all around, and he didn't know that Bolo led the troops to withdraw, so he stood up slowly, and suddenly saw a group of people in the distance, who looked like Ming troops.
As long as it is the Ming army, it is the enemy, he picked up a pair of bows and arrows from the ground, and shook his head again to make himself conscious.
When his eyes were not blurred, he took his bow and arrows and shot towards the Ming army in the distance.
The arrow shot into the sky, and flew steadily and fiercely towards Huang Degong's chest.
Huang Degong was taken into the sky by the arrowhead, and then fell heavily to the ground.
The sound was so loud that Ling Jingyang and Li Dingguo, who were on the fort, woke up, and the two didn't know what was going on, only that Huang Degong had been stabbed.
Huang Degong was lying on the ground, blood was spurting out of his mouth, and the general hurriedly stepped forward to cover his wounds, and a rusty arrow was nailed to his chest, shooting Huang Degong's Niu Lu, who had not yet come, and was chopped into meat sauce by Huang Degong's subordinates who were furious.
Ling Jingyang and other senior generals of the Ming army were frightened, Huang Degong was the minister of the humerus of the Hongguang court, if he had three longs and two shorts, the Hongguang court would also fall into turmoil.
At this time, Huang Degong was carried back to the barracks by the general, and the military doctor was stopping the bleeding for him, but it seemed that the blood was flowing wildly.
The sudden encounter made the atmosphere of the Ming army depressed to the extreme, Huang Degong wanted to say something, but blood blocked his voice, and he said his last words intermittently, but no matter how others listened, they couldn't listen to it.
Perhaps because Ling Jingyang had more knowledge than in this era, he squatted down and held Huang Degong's hand.
"Mr. Huang, your family's court will provide for you, Lao Tzu will not destroy Jiannu, and swear not to be a man, you... Just go with confidence. ”
Huang Degong couldn't let go of his wife and daughter, as well as the imperial court, he was unwilling to die here, or died from the sneak attack of Jiannu, but he was no longer reconciled, or he was unable to return to the sky, and finally died in front of the soldiers.
The Ming army lost generals one after another, not only Li Rufeng, but also Huang Degong.
Ling Jingyang looked in the direction of Xiangyang Mansion and yelled: "Don't look at the Jiannu of the dog day, chase Lao Tzu, chase after Xiangyang to destroy the Jiannu." ”
Roar, roar, roar
Tens of thousands of Ming soldiers burst out with rage, even if they were extremely tired, they also cheered up, carrying weapons to pursue the Qing army, some of them just looked like Qing soldiers, leaving halfway, and the pro-soldiers who were not on both sides of the team cut off their heads with a knife.
Ling Jingyang asked Jin Sheng to wait for the arrival of the grain and grass here, and when the grain and grass arrived, let the grain also keep up with the large army.
The Ming army crossed the border line of De'an Mansion and Xiangyang Mansion, and the Qing army on the border line saw that the Ming army was violent, and hurriedly reported to Bolo, who had gathered the remnants of the army near the border line, and Bolo also had a question mark on his face, why did the Ming army suddenly have such a kind?
He withdrew to the border of Xiangyang Prefecture, gathered thousands of soldiers and horses here, thinking that the Ming army fought continuously, and his physical strength had already reached the limit, and he rested here for half a day, and he could catch the Ming army off guard, so his brain was hot, and he led the assembled troops to kill the Ming army.
The two armies once again broke out in the boundary mountain, at the beginning of the battle, the Qing army was swept away by the autumn wind of the Ming army, Bolo has never seen such a fierce Ming army in his life, everyone forgot to die, even if they were cut by the Qing soldiers, they had to drag the Qing soldiers to the ground, so that their companions had the opportunity to kill the Qing soldiers.
Thousands of Qing troops were overwhelmed by the Ming army, and Bolo once again became a shameful deserter, he led his own soldiers to retreat to Wudang Mountain, regardless of the stragglers on the road, first retreated to the base camp of Wudang Mountain, and saved his life.
The Ming army went crazy, whether it was the Qing soldiers who surrendered or the Qing soldiers who did not surrender, all of them were a knife.
Li Dingguo's troops did not participate in the battle, they were so tired that they could only follow far behind to capture the Qing army.
The entire Jieshan is full of corpses of the Qing army, Ling Jingyang is still angry, if it weren't for the fact that his legs really can't be sold, he will definitely kill the Qing army's Azig department in one go, and a son of victory will eliminate the Qing army's heavy army group.
The next morning, the battle of Jieshan was completely over, and the grain and grass in the rear were also sent, Jin Sheng buried the pot and cooked for the soldiers on the spot, and the soldiers of the Ming army fought for two days and two nights, and they all became clay figures.
At this time, Jin Sheng brought them steaming food, and the soldiers of the Ming army shouted long live, the scene was so spectacular that the soldiers of the Great Western Army looked sideways.
Ling Jingyang couldn't help but shout, but Wan Liyun and Zhou Yuan quietly came to his side and muttered to him.
"Governor, Huang Zongbing's soldiers and horses?"
Ling Jingyang heard the meaning of Wan Liyun and Zhou Yuan, and at this time he annexed Huang Degong's troops and became the strongest soldiers and horses in the Hongguang Imperial Court.
This is indeed a bit unauthentic, but if you don't do this, Huang Degong's troops are likely to be divided by other warlords, and Huang Degong is Ma Shiying's person, and letting this army return to the imperial court is just becoming Ma Shiying's pawn.
When he hesitated, Jin Sheng came to him, nodded with Ling Jingyang, and signaled that he could pancake Huang Degong troops on the spot.
"Lord Jin, let Huang Degong's soldiers and horses return to the imperial court, and the other soldiers and horses belong to you and me."
There are not many soldiers and horses in Huang Degong's headquarters, only more than 2,000 people, and hundreds of people were lost in this battle, and the other troops are all military households and young people.
Because of his resolute attitude, Jin Sheng did not force it, he took Jiang Tianyi and other subordinates to Huang Degong's military camp, in order to support him, Ling Jingyang also ordered to assemble troops, if Huang Degong's headquarters soldiers and horses did not obey the order, they would be forcibly driven away.
Huang Degong's troops also gathered together at this time to discuss the future direction, whether to follow Jin Sheng, or listen to Jingyang, or return to the imperial court and form a new army with the support of Ma Shiying.
Huang Degong's troops were divided because Huang Degong's ability to control the troops was not strong, and he was only the nominal commander of the troops.
As soon as he died, the troops were torn apart, and when Jin Sheng and Ling Jingyang arrived, there were immediately generals who left Huang Degong's command with soldiers and horses.
Only Huang Degong's troops were still holding on, Ling Jingyang took a breath, and then recruited Huang Degong's subordinates in a kind tone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Huang was unfortunately martyred, it was my Ming loss, Ling will definitely not take advantage of the danger of others, annex Er and other troops, if you want to go back to the imperial court, we will give you grain and grass, let you go back, if you want to continue to fight Jiannu, follow me and Lord Jin, let's continue to attack westward, and destroy Jiannu."
When the generals of Huang Degong's army saw Ling Jingyang, Jin Sheng agreed to let them go, and they said goodbye to Ling Jingyang, and after a while, more than 4,000 Huang soldiers and horses took Huang Degong's body and left, leaving more than 10,000 people to join Jin Sheng and Ling Jingyang's troops.
Ling Jingyang and Jin Sheng were not polite, and after dividing up Huang Degong's part of the soldiers and horses, they also sent 10,000 taels of silver and 1,000 stones of grain and grass to Huang Degong's troops, which was enough for them to return to Huizhou Mansion.
Send Huang Degong's subordinates away, listen to Jingyang and Jin Sheng to discuss, whether to continue to attack westward and smash the Qing army Huanglong.
Fan Yunlong, the commander-in-chief under Jin Sheng, was also a fierce general, and he believed that he should not continue to attack westward, on the one hand, the troops fought for days and days, and if they continued to fight, they would become a tired division and would be easily defeated by the Qing army.
There is also the fact that the Great Western Army has been defeated by the Qing Army, and without the containment of the Great Western Army, the Qing Army can be at ease and face the attack of the Ming Army and the Great Shun Army.
Speaking of the Great Western Army, Ling Jingyang thought of Li Dingguo, who was still gathering in the rear and keeping a distance from the Ming army.
He also agreed that Fan Zongbing was reasonable, the Ming army defeated Bolo, but Bolo was only a partial division of the Qing army, most of the green battalion soldiers were eliminated, and the eight banners were destroyed only a few thousand people, and the strength of the Qing army was still there, so it was better to withdraw to De'an Mansion and stabilize the defense line of De'an Mansion.
This point of view was agreed by most of the generals, Jin Sheng wanted to continue the attack, but suddenly remembered Blocking Yinxi, and said: "Ling Dudu, you will withdraw now, isn't it in vain to block the scriptures?" ”
Perhaps because of the continuous fighting, Ling Jingyang almost forgot about blocking Yinxi, he fell into deep thought, if he got the support of blocking Yinxi, he would rectify the troops and horses in Jieshan, and maybe he would be able to continue to fight with the Qing army, contain part of the Qing army's strength, and reduce the pressure on the Dashun army and Wang Yingxiong.
"Lord Jin, your department has suffered a big loss, it is better to withdraw to De'an Mansion, I will lead my troops to rest in Jieshan, and when the Blocking Strategy Department arrives, I and the Blocking Strategy Department will attack westward, and Lord Jin will lead the troops out of De'an Mansion to support our army, is this good?"
Jin Sheng really didn't want to retreat, but Fan Yunlong quietly made eye contact with him, Jin Sheng still agreed with Ling Jingyang's suggestion, and he led his troops to withdraw to rest, but he asked Ling Jingyang to tell him in time before launching an attack, so that he could lead his troops to come for reinforcements.
Not only that, Jin Sheng also gave thousands of soldiers and horses of Huang Degong's troops who defected to him to Ling Jingyang to improve Ling Jingyang's military strength, which can make Fan Yunlong feel pain, although Huang Degong's troops who defected to him, most of the miscellaneous soldiers, but the miscellaneous soldiers are stronger than Jin Sheng's young soldiers.
He kept making eye contact with Jin Sheng, Jin Sheng didn't see it, Ling Jingyang was embarrassed, he symbolically selected more than 1,000 people from Jin Sheng's troops, merged them into the Iron Fist Army, and then sent Jin Sheng back to De'an Mansion.
