The first actual battle of the Ming Loyal and Brave Guard was against a group of rogues. Lu Xiao didn't know who was in the lead. Maybe it's some famous figure in history, maybe it's some unknown person. But it doesn't matter if these are all of this, all Lu Xiao wants is to be loyal and brave and see blood.

Training for muskets took place only for a little more than a month. In fact, in Lu Xiao's heart, the proficiency of these musketeers was far from meeting the requirements in his mind. But he eventually decided to do so.

Artillery, muskets, armor, these equipment add up, in fact, it is already a dimensionality reduction blow to those homeless.

"Musket ready! Put!! ”

Accompanied by a loud command. The first batch of six hundred musketeers fired at the same time. A swarm of rogues suddenly lay down nearly a hundred people as if they were mowing grass.

Tens of thousands of rogues were beaten in one round. The one at the front saw this posture and turned around and wanted to run. The last one doesn't know what the situation is, and they are still squeezing forward.

Lu Xiao looked at the farce in front of him from a distance, a little speechless. He was originally going to train his troops. As a result, only one round of fire has been fired now, and the other party is in chaos on its own. It really made him cry and laugh a little.

However, Lu Xiao did not let go of this opportunity in the end.

"Let the others go up and fence it off. Every team will see blood. ”

Lu Xiao indifferently gave the task of using this group of rogues as a target for flesh and blood. A tall and strong man beside him immediately rode a horse and led the team to surround him.

This person's name is Zuo Liangyu, and he was a famous general in the late Ming Dynasty in history. It is also one of the few generals that Lu Xiao can remember.

Since the formation of the Loyal and Brave Guard, Lu Xiao began to use the power in his hands to search for those fierce generals who can leave a name in history. Zuo Liangyu was the first one he put away.

Zuo Liangyu led a cavalry regiment of more than 1,000 people to block one direction in which the rogue escaped. On the other side, a man who was also powerful and powerful, with a team of infantry, was facing the rogue head-on. This person's name is Lu Xiangsheng, and he was a general in the late Ming Dynasty who was more impressed by Lu Xiao in his previous life.

Of course, he is a general because he has led soldiers. But in fact, Lu Xiangsheng is a real civil official. It's just that he, a scholar, is the kind of real reader, the kind of person who plays in front of the Wenneng Palace, and the kind that can lead the troops on the horse.

The infantry regiment used tactics that were formally similar to those of the Qi family's army back then. A group of several people can always form a situation of fighting more and less on the battlefield. Swiftly cut and strangle the rogues who ran around with their heads covered.

Zuo Liangyu and Lu Xiangsheng were both generals with real talents and hard work in the late Ming Dynasty. plus the strong army that Lu Xiao spent a lot of money to raise. In the face of a rogue with about a similar number of rogues, it is naturally a crushing trend. After Lu Xiao watched it for a while, he felt a little interested.

"It's too weak, how can this achieve the purpose of military training. Which of the surrounding rogues have become the climate? ”

Shen Lian on the side thought for a moment and responded.

"Lord Hui, the thirty-sixth battalion of the strongest in Shanxi was used by Wang at that time. It is said to command an army of 200,000. The imperial court fought with it several times, but failed to take it. ”

"If you can't win it, you're defeated, right? Mark their course of action, and we'll meet them. ”

"My lord, although the 200,000 people in the 36th battalion are a bit exaggerated, there are always more than 100,000 people. We only have 12,000 people, isn't it a bit inappropriate? ”

Lu Xiao glanced back at Shen Lian and chuckled.

"Just over 100,000 people."

..............

Liaodong was completely turned into a scorched earth. Huang Taiji was so angry that he lay directly on the bed for half a month before he barely regained his breath. At this time, he didn't know that he was being calculated.

It's just that he didn't expect that the Ming Dynasty's side would be so ruthless. This is obviously the meaning of letting yourself and Liaodong die together.

The people who made this plan even directly regarded the millions of people in Liaodong as dead. From beginning to end, they did not think about their life or death. Not to mention those defenders in Liaodong.

Huang Taiji even had a feeling. That is, the Ming Dynasty is using his own hands to clean up those warlords in Liaodong.

In the past, after seeing through this matter, Huang Taiji would be very happy. Because in this way, he could take the opportunity to subdue more Ming troops. When he goes south, he will have more help.

Huang Taiji is different from Nurhachi in that he knows that if he wants to take down the Ming Dynasty, he must reuse a group of Ming Dynasty generals. So he is still good to those Ming troops who come to vote.

But all of this was completely burned out by the fire half a month ago.

Huang Taiji couldn't believe when the other party started to lay out. In one go, he ordered a military town, plus twelve affiliated military towns. But the other side was able to deploy manpower in all towns overnight and burn more than eighty percent of the grain and grass.

This shows that the other party has always been well aware of his situation here. even anticipated his own attack and arranged his manpower in advance.

The Tartars still caught a few alive. Under torture, few useful clues were obtained. I only know that they are the hidden stakes of the Jinyi Guard. Ordered to lurk here for more than two years. It is to light a fire and burn the grain when the signal is received. At the same time, among those Ming army guards, there are actually many people who have been bought by them.

That's why when it's time to ignite, it's so smooth. Even the final provocation of the Ming army and the Tartars to the death was done by them. You know, even if there is not enough food. It is impossible for Huang Taiji to give an order to kill all the Ming troops in the city. His plan was to advance south, sweep some small towns, gather some grain and grass, and hold out until the autumn harvest.

But unexpectedly, the atmosphere that night was too tense. was provoked casually, and the film was opened directly on both sides. And in that atmosphere, once the fight starts, there is absolutely no possibility of stopping.

The Ming army thought that they were going to be wiped out, so they naturally resisted desperately. The Tartars thought that these Ming troops wanted to rebel, so they naturally suppressed them with all their might. As a result, the two sides fought bloodily for a day and a night.

The Tartars won in the end, but the street battle cost the Tartars nearly 10,000 elites. You must know that there are not so many Tartars who died in Shenyang City.

"Who is the commander of the Jinyi Guard in the Ming Dynasty now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, it is a man named Lu Xiao. But we know very little about this person. And it seems that the other party also serves as the Shanxi military preparation road, and is now training the new army. ”

"Lu Xiao, it seems that this so-called scorched earth plan is from the hands of this person. Contact over there, I want all the news about Lu Xiao. ”

Lu Xiao naturally didn't care about Huang Taiji and began to investigate himself. He was now standing on a small hillside. Looking at a team of rogues not far away. On the banner that was erected, a fierce yellow tiger was baring its teeth.

"Interesting, that's it. Transfer the Tiger Cannon, the Red Artillery, the Musket Team, and the Grenadier. ”
