Chapter 660: Enemy on the Belly and Back
"Phew!" Li Zicheng gently drank the green horse under his crotch.
Song Xiance, Gu Junen, Ma Bao and other generals of the Dashun army who accompanied him also followed the horse and stopped, and the Dashun cavalry behind immediately spread out towards the two wings.
Soon, 30,000 Dashun cavalry formed a huge cavalry formation.
Li Zicheng held up the monocular he had purchased from Nanjing at great expense and aimed it at the north bank of the Tonghui River.
Song Xiance, Gu Junen and Ma Bao and other generals can only be watched with the naked eye, but fortunately, this piece of birch forest has been cut down by the Ming army and Jiannu, and the vision is very good.
Across the Tonghui River, you can see the large array of the Ming army and Jiannu.
Judging from the formation alone, the Ming army's long snake formation is undoubtedly extremely thin, giving people the illusion that it will collapse at one touch, as if Jiannu can be broken with only one charge.
Song Xiance couldn't help but say, "Is Chongzhen stupid? actually put on such a thin long snake formation? Once the Chinese army is crushed by Jiannu, won't it be all over? ”
"I'm embarrassed to say that Coal Mountain is enlightened."
"Coal Mountain Enlightenment comes to this?"
After a pause, Song Xiance continued: "Shengshang, it seems that our Dashun army will not be able to make a move, if our Dashun army does not make a move, the Ming army will definitely be defeated in this battle, Chongzhen is only afraid that he will also be captured by Jiannu, if this is the case, maybe the entire Nanming will surrender to Jiannu, which is not good for my Dashun, so I can't see death without help." ”
Gu Junen subconsciously wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute Song Xiance.
Because of this formation put forward by the Ming army, Gu Junen couldn't understand it, this was looking for death?
Li Zicheng was also said to be a little worried, and frowned: "But it's not easy to support the Ming army." ”
Ma Bao also said: "Yes, our scout cavalry has already reconnoitred, and only the Bali Bridge can cross the Tonghui River in this vicinity, but now the Bali Bridge has been blocked by Jiannu, and it is difficult for us to kill it." ”
"It's true." Song Xiance sighed, "I knew to bring a few camel cannons here." ”
At this time, Gu Junen finally spoke: "The reason why the Ming army dares to put on such a formation must be relied on, and our Dashun army can wait and see what happens." ”
】
"Lean? What can you rely on? Song Xiance pouted and said, "It's stupid." ”
After a pause, Song Xian continued: "The formation of the Ming army is not only that the Chinese army will fall into a dilemma after being attacked by Jiannu, but what is more troublesome is that once the Jiannu in Beijing City is attacked from behind, the Ming army will immediately fall into a desperate situation of being attacked by the enemy on the back of the abdomen, and it will be difficult for the gods to save." ”
As if to confirm Song Xiance's words, a military general suddenly pointed to the northwest and shouted.
"Look, look behind the Ming army! There is smoke and dust, as if a large army is approaching! ”
Li Zicheng, Song Xiance, Gu Junen, Ma Bao and others turned their eyes to the northwest.
But I saw that about five or six miles behind the Ming army, there was indeed smoke and dust rising in the air on both sides of the official road.
Song Xiance couldn't see it clearly, but Li Zicheng could see it clearly with the help of a telescope, it was an elite cavalry of Jiannu who was stubborn and stubborn, and there were quite a few of them.
"Shengshang, is it Jiannu who is here and is it the Ming army?" Song Xiance asked anxiously.
"Jiannu!" Li Zicheng said with a dark face, "Judging from the style of the armor stomach and the flag, it should be a cavalry with a white flag and a white flag, there are quite a few of them, at least 20,000 cavalry!" ”
"What am I talking about? What am I talking about? ”
Song Xiance immediately became anxious when he heard this, clapped his hands and said: "I just said that the army will be attacked by Jiannu and will fall into a desperate situation of being attacked by the enemy on the back of the belly, isn't this really the enemy on the back of the belly?" Alas. ”
Gu Junen's face was also very bad, and the Ming army was really in big trouble now.
Gu Junen didn't want the Ming army to win, but he didn't want the Ming army to be defeated either.
I don't want the Ming army to be wiped out, and even Chongzhen will become a prisoner of Jiannu.
For the Dashun army, the best result was that the Ming army and Jiannu were both defeated.
At that moment, Gu Junen said: "Shengshang, we must find a way to cross the river as soon as possible and block the two white flags behind the Ming army, otherwise this battle will not have to be fought, the Ming army will be defeated, and the whole army will be destroyed!" ”
"It's late, it's too late." Song Xiance looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's too late." ”
"Not necessarily." Gu Junen shook his head and said, "The Tonghui River is no more than five feet deep, and you can directly ride a horse and wade across the river." ”
"It's not that easy." Song Xiance shook his head and said, "Although the Tonghui River is shallow, the silt is deep, and it will be difficult for people and horses to move an inch if they fall into it, and then they can only become a live target for the Ming army's arms or the Jiannu Daxiao's bow." ”
After a pause, he said: "Our army suddenly appeared here, and did not inform the Ming army in advance, so at this time, wading across the river from the left flank will most likely be attacked by the Ming army, and if you wade across the river from the right flank, you will also be obstructed by Jiannu, and if you wade across the river from the middle, it is even more likely to be attacked by the Ming army and Jiannu at the same time." ”
Gu Junen wanted to fight again, but was interrupted by Li Zicheng waving his hand: "The right army division doesn't need to say more, what the big army division said is not wrong, at this time it is too late for our army to participate in this big war, the only thing our army can do at the moment is to stay in the south of Bali Bridge and watch the changes, if the Ming army is really defeated, and then provide help as much as possible." ”
With a wave of his hand, 30,000 Dashun cavalry slowly pressed towards the south of Bali Bridge.
……
"General, the puppet cavalry has pressed towards the Bali Bridge." A general of the Eight Banners said.
"See." Sonny was unmoved, and said abruptly, "There are only twenty or thirty thousand pseudo-shun cavalry that are not worried, there are dozens of tiger squatting cannons in the way, and they can't cross the bridge." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly screamed excitedly.
"General, do you see behind the Ming army, are they our reinforcements?"
"Reinforcements?" Sony quickly raised the monocular and aimed it at the back of the Ming army.
At this moment when Sonny raised his binoculars to observe, Sukh Saha had already seen it clearly, and shouted excitedly: "It's the cavalry of the two white flags, and the two white flags are all here!" At least 20,000 rides! ”
"Haha, that's it." Suppilon was overjoyed.
"With 20,000 cavalry with two white flags to attack the Ming army from behind, my Qing soldiers will win this battle!"
Sony's face was also uncontrollably joyful, and he said in a deep voice: "Send out the flying horses and tell the good news of the two white flags coming to help." ”
The next moment, dozens of fast horses galloped away.
After a while, the Qing army, which was slowly marching forward in formation, immediately cheered like a tsunami, and two white flags came to help, and rushed to the battlefield at this juncture, which greatly boosted the confidence and morale of all units of the Qing army participating in the war.
The Eight Banners Han Army led by Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi also became high-spirited again.
Geng Jimao also sighed, it seems that the national fortune is still in the Qing Dynasty, and Chongzhen actually made such a low-level mistake.
……
"Woohoo!" Bai Yintu gently drank the war horse under his crotch.
The two white-flag cavalrymen who followed behind also stopped their horses.
In just a few moments, the 20,000 cavalry of the two white flags all stopped.
The location of Baiyintu is exactly in the middle of the phalanx of the Ming army's main army and the 4th town, so you can see the Qing army approaching with a side van on the opposite side through the gap of 200 steps wide in the middle of the Ming army's formation.
Since the two armies were still far apart, the artillery of both sides did not fire, and the battlefield was silent.
Seeing this, Bai Yintu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "It seems that we have arrived at the right time. ”
Hong Chengchou, who was riding a horse and standing behind Bai Yintu, sighed in his heart, is this early?
If you suddenly kill from behind while the Ming army and the Sony army are fighting fiercely, there may still be a chance.
But when he arrived at the battlefield at this time, he clearly told the Ming army to attack from both sides, was the Ming army really a fool? Won't the Ming army be prepared in advance? Not to mention anything else, the mine array alone was enough for the Qing army to drink a pot.
Hong Chengchou still clearly remembers the big losses he suffered in Chen Guantun.
However, it is very unfortunate that the idiot of Baiyintu does not believe it at all.
……
Hong Chengchou's worries are not unforgiving.
Because the Ming army was really going to use a mine array to deal with the Jiannu who attacked from behind.
Just now, in addition to digging trenches in front of the long snake formation, the Ming army also planted more than 5,000 mines on the back of the Chinese army's main formation, making a huge mine array.
In addition to the mine array, the 1st Brigade of Mountain Artillery was also transferred to the Central Army.
Because it is enough to have a field artillery brigade in the 1st town on the far right, plus a 1st mountain artillery brigade, the firepower is somewhat wasted, and it is better to be seconded to the main position of the Chinese army.
Jiang Tianyi said with a smile: "Jiannu must be very proud at this time. ”
"Jiannu must be proud." Wang Jiayan said, "Suffering from the enemy on the back is originally a taboo for soldiers. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Jiayan asked Chongzhen again: "Holy Lord, can our army really carry the two-sided attack of Jiannu?" ”
"Wang Qing rest assured, there will be no problems." Chongzhen said with a smile, "Behind them are the cavalry of the two white flags of Jiannu, these Eight Banners soldiers are not equipped with flintlock pistols and camel cannons, they still use sabers and big bows, it is impossible to pose a threat to the central hollow phalanx of our army." ”
"And landmines." Jiang Tianyi smiled and said, "Jiannu can only be sent to death." ”
"Sent to death? I'm afraid I'm afraid this is too much, right? After all, Wang Jiayan did not participate in the Battle of Dagukou, let alone personally participated in the victory of the Hunhe River, so it is not surprising that he is still suspicious of the firearms of the Ming army.
But Chongzhen and Jiang Tianyi are full of confidence, and there is no suspense in this battle.
Jiang Tianyi asked with a smile: "Shengshang, at this point, the big war is already on the way, even if Jiannu wants to give up halfway, it is impossible for Jiannu to attack." ”
"Yes." Chongzhen nodded happily, and said, "Let the air force take off first, as for the divine artillery, it's not too late to wait for Jiannu to get closer before launching, it's still a little far away at the moment." ”
Jiang Tianyi immediately shouted: "Order, the Air Force is in the air!" ”
The 19 flying cars, which had been ready for a long time, immediately took to the skies.
