"Shizheng, let me take the main attack this time, I have to take a bad breath!" Li Fuguo walked quickly in front of Hu Dinggui and knelt down on one knee in violation of the rules and asked to fight.

Although the military system of the Datong Army and the official documents all write the division commander, deputy division commander, captain, and deputy captain, the soldiers who have read the book are still habitually called: division leader, division deputy, team leader, team deputy.

Including the director and deputy director of the civil service, they are also called: the director of the department and the deputy of the department.

More than eighty percent of the hundreds of soldiers killed by the defenders of the city this time belonged to Li Fuguo's regiment.

Hu Dinggui pondered: "Your regiment has too many casualties, let's attack with Lao Jiang." Also, stand up and speak, and I will promise you if I don't kneel. ”

"Yes!" Li Fuguo immediately stood up.

Li Fuguo is Li Banghua's grandnephew, and the family relationship is out of five suits. But who let Li Banghua be in a high position, and his relatives who couldn't be beaten by the eight poles also came to have a relationship with him.

The Li family's power in the military and political system is no longer on a par with the Fei family, and there is no queen to blow the wind on the pillow.

The defenders in the city lit up their troops and horses and killed Li Yangxing's broken rear troops.

As for the reinforcements on the seaside, they took boats again and transported troops to intercept the rear road of the main force of the Eight Banners. However, Li Dingguo and Wang Tingchen were still separated, and the cavalry was led to chase after the main force of the Eight Banners.

But you have to go around, the northbound passage is relatively narrow, and Li Yangxing blocked the way.

Li Dingguo and Wang Tingchen led the cavalry through the earthen walls and moats from the west of the city, galloped along the north city wall towards the northeast, and then passed through the earthen walls and moats to the mountains in the north. Bypassing the Manchu camp garrisoned by Li Yangxing, he led his horse up the hill and went down, and then galloped all the way to catch up with the main force of the Manchu Dynasty.

On the side of the Manchu battalion, Li Fuguo and Jiang Lin attacked from the front, and the rest of the troops and peasants were outflanked from both sides.

The camp here was too big, and after the main Manchu force withdrew, many places became empty camps, but the various fortifications were still disgusting, and many places needed to build planks to pass.

Li Yangxing belonged to the battle of trapped beasts, leading three thousand Wuzhen Chaoha and a large number of people, and retreated in the core camp left by Dolgon.

Before the battle began, these soldiers at the bottom of the Han army had already made up their minds to take the opportunity to surrender.

Li's wife and children are taken care of by Dolgon, but their wives and children are taken care of, and maybe the orphans and widows will be taken over. In that case, why did you sacrifice your life for the Manchu Qing Dynasty?

Li Yangxing said to his soldiers: "For the Ming Dynasty, we are all traitors to the enemy. The martial arts under the command of the Southern Barbarian Emperor were all surrendered by the Ming court. Even if we surrender, the southern barbarians will kill us, and we all cheer up and fight hard! ”

The Han soldiers were silent when they heard this, and at the same time they felt desperate, but they also resented Dolgon for sending them to their deaths.

They are all soldiers who have no faith, they don't know why they are fighting, they are good at robbing and killing with the wind, and they are brave enough to fight with the army, and their morale will instantly drop to zero after they stay.

Li Yangxing's army was annihilated by Li Dingguo in history!

"Boom, boom!"

The Datong army began shelling.

"Run!"

The first to collapse were the minfu, a force of 20,000 minfu, which collapsed on its own the moment it was shelled.

Immediately afterwards, the Eight Banners of the Han Army of the Wuzhen Chaoha Battalion also fled.

Dolgon had already guessed this to be the case, so he left 20,000 people behind. Either let them fight a blocking war, or let them scatter and flee, and the Datong army had to consume time and troops to capture, so as to create an opportunity for the Manchu main force to retreat.

The expected battle suddenly turned into a pursuit battle.

Li Yangxing took more than 100 soldiers, and he stayed in the core camp and did not escape, and the rest were scattered on the battlefield.

Dolgon's plan worked, and at least Hu Dinggui's main infantry could not pursue it for a day or two. Not only did they have to capture the prisoners, but they also had to screen, place and guard them, and only Wu Huapu pursued them to the north with the dragoons.

When Li Fuguo and Jiang Lin led their troops to the front of the battle, more than 100 people around Li Yangxing, facing the Datong army 20 times their size, put down their weapons and chose to surrender.

There were even several of Li Yangxing's personal soldiers, who used knives to hold Li Yangxing's neck, tied them up and escorted them out of the camp to surrender.

Halfway through, Li Yangxing begged his soldiers: "Kill me quickly, take my head and surrender, don't let me suffer another living sin." For the sake of the old days, I beg you to give me a knife. ”

The pro-soldiers turned a deaf ear, and after the escort was broken, the main general surrendered, and maybe he could make meritorious service in exchange for his own life.

Li Fuguo saw Li Yangxing, interrogated him, and learned his identity, and immediately sneered: "A good dog, you are also worthy of the surname Li?" ”

Li Yangxing knew that he would not escape death, and retorted: "What can you do if you don't vote for the Qing Dynasty? If it weren't for betraying the country and surrendering to the enemy, he would have been falsely killed by the Ming civil and military back then. Right and wrong, where is it clear? Don't say more, if you are a good man, give it a good time! ”

Hearing this, Li Fuguo was no longer sarcastic.

The soldiers of the Datong Army, who were born in mud legs, all regarded the Han army flag and clothing as traitors. But Li Fuguo is a scholar, and he has heard the elders of the clan who are officials talk about it, and it is indeed difficult to explain the messy party disputes in it.

Ten years ago, Li Yangxing definitely belonged to the victim, and if he didn't vote for the Manchu Dynasty, he would definitely be killed by the Ming Dynasty and the martial arts, and he would be framed for various crimes after his death!

Li Fuguo waved his hand and said, "Take it back for trial." ”

Li Yangxing, who was dragged away by the soldiers, twisted his neck and shouted: "Give me a good time, give me a good time!" ”

Wu Huapu grabbed the reins with one arm and advanced at full speed with the dragoons, and in the middle of the afternoon, he encountered the Datong cavalry led by Li Dingguo and Wang Tingchen.

Three of them combined, about seven thousand cavalry.

"How?" Wu Huapu asked.

Li Dingguo pointed ahead: "There is a puppet Qing cavalry to intercept it, and there has already been a battle, and each of them has killed and injured 100 people." ”

Wang Tingchen said: "According to the confession of the captured enemy cavalry, the one who led the cavalry to intercept us was Babutai, the ninth son of the Tatar chieftain Nurhachi, and some of the cavalry under his command were Manchurian cavalry, and the rest were mostly Inner and Outer Mongolian cavalry. ”

The Inner and Outer Mongolian Cavalry, specifically refers to the Mongolian Eight Banners (Inner) and the Outer Mongolian Banners (Outside).

The backbone of the Mongolian Eight Banners was the Ming border army that was attached to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, as well as the Mongolian troops who lost the Mongolian Civil War and fled to the Manchu Qing Dynasty. There are also a few Mongolian tribes who married with the Manchus, and Mongolian slaves (prisoners of war captured in the steppe) who made meritorious contributions in battle. These people, who settled in Liaodong, were compiled as Niulu like the Manchus.

As for the outer Mongolians, they were Mongolian tribes that took the initiative to belong to or were subdued by the Manchus. They had autonomy, but they had to pay tribute on time, and in the event of a war, they had to fight with the Manchus.

Wu Huapu, as a native of Liaodong, is very aware of the situation inside, and said: "The outer feudal Mongolia is not the same as the puppet Qing Dynasty. Even if they marry the Tartar chieftains, they don't want to fight to the death with us, and if there are too many casualties among the young and strong, their tribe may be annexed. ”

Wang Tingchen also worked as a border general, nodded and said: "Yes, in the battle just now, some Mongolian cavalry were indeed very slippery. ”

Li Dingguo suggested: "It is better to concentrate all your efforts and attack the Manchurian cavalry." ”

"That's how it should be!" Wang Tingchen said with a smile.

The Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banner cavalry had similar equipment, but the Mongolian cavalry was obviously dressed differently.

The cavalry was entangled before, and it had already been tried, and the outer feudal Mongolia was indeed paddling.

Immediately, the three of them adjusted their tactics.

Wang Tingchen and Wu Huapu's dragoons raided from both flanks, and Li Dingguo led the cavalry to charge directly into battle, all killing the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the Eight Banners of Mongolia.

In this way, the Mongolian cavalry of the outer domain really chose to continue paddling.

They did not desperately rescue friendly troops, but only symbolically mounted shooting nearby, and it didn't matter how many Datong cavalry they could shoot, as long as they proved that they did not escape from the battle—these foreign Mongols did not want to fight with the Datong army, but they did not dare to betray the Manchus, otherwise their tribes would be retaliated.

"Blow the trumpet, order the flag, order the Mongolian flag of the outer domain to outflank!" Babutai, who was being attacked, hurriedly shouted.

The Mongol cavalry of the outer domain received the order and immediately outflanked them.

However, they still shot arrows on the periphery, and they didn't look like they were fighting with Babutai at all.

Babutai was furious: "Blow the trumpet and order the Mongolian flag of the outer domain to meet the enemy!" ”

The Mongol cavalry of the Outer Domain immediately moved forward, but only a dozen steps forward, and then continued to ride and shoot arrows.

Babutai was about to be, and at such a distance, even if he could shoot the Datong cavalry, he would not be able to cause effective damage. What the hell is this you?

A year ago, the Mongolian soldiers of the outer domain would never dare to be so perfunctory, and they would inevitably charge desperately when they received the order.

But the Mongols on the steppe are not stupid, the Manchus have been beaten back to Liaodong, maybe they will be wiped out one day, why should they serve the Manchu court? Maintaining one's own strength is fundamental, and maybe you can have a good relationship with the Datong Army.

On the battlefield in front of you, the Eight Banners of Manchuria, the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and the Mongolian Banners of the Foreign Domains add up to more than 12,000 cavalry.

As a result, after the full-scale engagement, the 7,000 Datong cavalry actually had a local superiority in strength, and the Mongolian cavalry of the outer domains were all in a state of sleepwalking.

Nurhachi's ninth son, Babutai, finally enjoyed the treatment of the chief general of the Ming Dynasty: it was clear that the friendly army was by his side, but the result was that he did not contribute!

And Li Dingguo also found a rhythm, when Babutai used the old routine of the Manchu cavalry and scattered into countless units to fight. He mixed the Xiao cavalry into the dragoons, and when the enemy scattered the arrows, he used the dragoons to shoot at each other, and the enemy gathered his troops to charge and kill, and he used the Xiao cavalry to charge and kill.

When Li Zicheng encountered this tactic of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he chose to abandon defense and fight in close combat with speed advantage.

Li Dingguo had dragoons in hand, and it was more comfortable to fight, completely forming a tactical suppression of the Manchu cavalry.

Of course, there are too few cavalry in Datong, and even if there are dragoons, they will suffer heavy casualties when they rush to kill, and they can probably play a casualty exchange ratio of 1:1.3.

It's just that the Manchu cavalry was killed a lot, while the Datong cavalry was wounded, which was a victory for the fire gun over the bow and arrow.

After about a quarter of an hour of fighting, Li Dingguo seized the brief opportunity of the enemy's scattered troops, gathered 500 horsemen and rushed straight to Babutai's main formation.

"Archery!" Babutai shouted in panic.

Five hundred cavalry, against the arrows of the Manchu cavalry, continued to rush towards Babutai without forgetting their lives.

Li Dingguo was hit by two arrows in succession, and the arrows were stuck in the armor, shaking as the war horse rose and fell. He took the lead, knocking out the enemy in front of him with his gun, and then drew his gun and swept around, sweeping the other enemy horse off his horse.

The lord will be so brave, and the knights under his command will be greatly boosted, and they will rush into the enemy formation with no indomitable progress.

When Li Dingguo stabbed the third enemy horseman, there was an elite warrior on the opposite side, who caught Li Dingguo's cavalry at the moment of falling off the horse. Li Dingguo hurriedly abandoned the spear, pulled out his waist knife sharply, and continued to rush towards Babutai.

Among Nurhachi's sons, there are also some cowards, such as Babutai in front of him.

Babutai was dismissed from all military posts because of the loss of his city and land. Although he has long been reinstated, his title is only a third-class Fengguo general, and he belongs to the scum among Nurhachi's sons.

Seeing that Li Dingguo was getting closer and closer, almost surrounded by the Manchu cavalry, Babutai did not think about leading his troops to encircle and kill, and his first reaction was ...... Turn the horse's head and run away!

Babutai's personal guards desperately intercepted, Li Dingguo killed two people in a row again, and blocked the weapons of the third person, and rushed behind Babutai on horseback.

As he fled, Babutai turned his head to look back, and was suddenly terrified.

"Drive!"

Babutai frantically stabbed the horse's buttocks, and the BMW under his crotch ran in pain, and quickly pulled out two positions with Li Dingguo.

Li Dingguo's mount was a horse wari castrated stallion, which was only partially served in the Datong cavalry. But the commanders of all levels of the cavalry rode the horses of Wari!

Li Dingguo's combat boots were equipped with spurs, and as soon as his feet were clamped, he immediately accelerated, and he was already chasing Babutai's side.

Brush!

A knife was slashed, and the knife light slashed.

Hurriedly dodged with a short body, and the whole thing was lying on the horse's back.

The two went hand in hand, Babutai stepped forward and swung his knife, and Li Dingguo shot down Babutai's weapon with a single sword. Then he leaned out sideways, chose to abandon the knife and reached out, grabbed Babutai's cotton armor, and directly tore Babutai off the horse's back.

Then, get used to the ground.

Babutai's personal soldiers in the rear galloped to the rescue, and without hurrying, this cargo was trampled to death by his own personal soldiers with horses' hooves.

"The enemy general is dead!"

Li Dingguo, who had lost all his weapons, rode his horse with his bare hands and shouted, avoiding the blades of the enemy cavalry very dangerously, and had already killed Babutai's main formation.
