The situation on the battlefield was still stalemate, and it did not immediately change because Huang Taiji ordered a retreat.

On the contrary, the Later Jin army, before retreating, launched a full-front onslaught against the Liaodong army.

The Liaodong Army resisted to the death.

Through the telescope and observation post, Yang Chengying made a judgment at the first time:

"This is the enemy's total retreat!"

If you don't launch a counter-attack, when you retreat, you will turn from retreat to rout due to the enemy's pursuit, and then suffer heavy damage.

Throughout history, the warring sides have suffered great casualties not precisely during the attack, but during the retreat.

"Come on, call Huanglong!"

Yang Chengying ordered.

The herald received the order and left quickly.

After a while, he saw Huang Long galloping on a horse, dismounting, and coming to the front.

Part of the artillery unit led by Huang Long did not participate in the battle.

"Dashuai!" Huang Long clenched his fists.

"The enemy is ready to retreat, you go back immediately and load all the cannons of Kamui into the carriage for me."

Yang Chengying instructed: "I will let a thousand soldiers of the Dongjiang Battalion protect you and climb Baimiao Mountain to strike at the enemy from a high position!" ”

"Yes, my subordinates will prepare." Huang Long said excitedly.

"Go!"

"Yes." Huang Long said yes and rode away quickly.

The Kamui General Cannon is a new cannon made of iron based on the Kamui Cannon. The cannon cast this time was presided over by Mao Yuanyi.

On the basis of the original Shenwei cannon, he creatively designed "stars" and "buckets" directly above the muzzle and bottom of the cannon for aiming.

The gun weighs 2274 kilograms, the gun body is 2.48 meters long, and the caliber is 0.11 meters. Each shot was loaded with 3 to 4 catties of gunpowder, and the shells weighed 6 to 8 catties.

The gun was loaded with a wooden gun carriage, somewhat similar to a field gun, towed by horses, and used for pulling out villages and field battles.

A total of fifteen doors were cast, all of which were pulled to the front line by Yang Chengying.

As a wave of onslaught of the Houjin army on the front line was withstood by the Liaodong army, the Houjin army began to retreat in an orderly manner.

The Liaodong Army pressed forward on all fronts.

Huang Long arrived at Baimiao Mountain with fifteen Shenwei General Cannons.

They carried artillery and ammunition up the mountain along the mountain road.

Before they were all transported up the mountain, they were under the command of Huang Long.

Condescendingly, he launched an artillery attack on the retreating Houjin army.

Bang bang bang bang ......

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The yellow flag behind the palace bore the brunt of the fire and was hit by the cannons.

One of the shots almost hit Huang Taiji's Chinese army.

Huang Taiji turned around: "What kind of cannon is this!" ”

It stands to reason that a gun with wheels could not reach such a range.

He has withdrawn to Luojiatun.

"Great Khan! It should be the enemy's new artillery, so withdraw quickly. ”

The soldiers were worried that the cannonballs would hit Huang Taiji, so they had the courage to urge.

Huang Taiji was envious: "Hmph! I must build more when I go back, and then compete with Yang Manzi! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a cannonball hit a short distance behind him.

An unlucky soldier was smashed in the face and killed instantly.

After confirming that his side had won, at the third moment of the first month of Youchu, Yang Chengying took Yang Sichang and others to ride horses to inspect the battlefield and accept the cheers of the soldiers who lived for the rest of their lives after the war.

In this battle, the Liaodong Army lost 4,305 people, of which the New First Division and the Guanning Iron Cavalry had the most, reaching 3,200 people, and 1,105 people were killed in the rest of the battlefields.

injured people, of which 5,400 were seriously injured, and some about 2,400 people could only be discharged.

Two regimental flags were lost, and four Hongyi cannons could no longer be used due to long firing.

The Houjin army was killed, of which 4,800 were killed in the Eight Banners, which is equivalent to the loss of ten people for each Niulu of the Eight Banners.

The Mongols lost 5,000 casualties, mostly Mongol soldiers from the Ao Han and Naiman tribes.

Another 20,000 were taken prisoner, most of them Han soldiers. That is, the border army of the Ming Dynasty from Jizhen was under the management of Tong.

During the rout, they were surrounded by Liaodong cavalry and surrendered.

A small number of bannermen of the Eight Banners were all incorporated by Bahana.

This battle was very fierce, and Yang Sichang said in his recital to Chongzhen:

The armies roared, the Tartars were tenacious, and the two armies clashed like thunder and lightning.

He also said in the recital: In such a confrontation, it is difficult to find a second one in the pass, which shows that the Ming army was not unjustly defeated in the past.

That night, the whole army rested and recuperated at Baimiao Mountain.

In the early morning of the next day, they prepared to launch an attack on Anshan City.

A cruel reality is placed in front of Huang Taiji, whether Anshan City will defend or retreat.

"Our army has suffered such a great defeat, and there is no possibility of another big war."

Huang Taiji said: "If you don't defend it, let the Ming army get this city for nothing, it's too undeserved!"

However, if our army holds on, it will definitely not be able to keep more men and horses. Otherwise, the grain and grass in the city will not be able to support it. ”

The meaning is very simple, he wants to defend Anshan City, but not the whole army, but sends a brigade to guard it, and the rest return to Shenyang to rest.

He is now also learning Yang Cheng's routine, waiting for the enemy to attack the city and feel tired before attacking and breaking the enemy in one fell swoop.

The ministers of Baylor looked at each other, unwilling to stay.

Anshan City is tall, but Yang Chengying's artillery is not vegetarian.

Babuthai, who was guarding Quang Ninh, was forced to abandon the city, and finally picked up a life and came back, even losing the title of Baylor.

Huang Taiji glanced at everyone and thought in his heart, who would guard Anshan City.

There is no way, beyond Anshan is Liaoyang, and beyond Liaoyang is Shenyang.

The Eight Banners are the red flag for goodness, and they can't guard Anshan. The second brother is highly respected, and if the battle situation is unfavorable to him, he wants to abandon the car to protect the handsome, but the second brother's position is too high and he can't give up.

The same is true of Mang Gurtai's blue flag.

Abatai seems to be a good fit.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji looked up at Abatai.

Abatai shuddered, knowing that the Great Khan had hit him.

He had no choice, so he got up and said: "Great Khan, Weichen is willing to lead some bannermen to defend Anshan to cover the retreat of the army." ”

Many of the generals breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, don't worry, after our army returns to Shenyang to rest, we will lead the army to come back." Huang Taiji comforted.

"Minister, wait for good news." Abatai knelt and kowtowed.

Huang Taiji nodded and began to give the order to retreat, which army would go first and which army would go later.

Before dawn the next day, the Houjin army retreated in an orderly manner.

Abatai watched the army leave the city and sighed secretly.

The world can see that this time I am afraid that this time it will be more than lucky.

At noon on the same day, the Liaodong Army arrived at Anshan City.

Yang Chengying set up the tent of the commander of the Chinese army at the Jade Buddha Mountain in the southeast of Anshan, and arranged the siege here.

The new 1st Division led by Zhang Cunren and the Ningyuan battalion led by He Kegang guarded the south and southwest corners respectively.

Zuo Liangyu led the Jinzhou battalion and surrounded the southeast corner.

The Guanning Iron Cavalry led by the Mongolian Yiding Zhang Tao responded in the rear.

He Kegang is a temporary commander to deal with emergencies.

The pressure in the south is less, and it is suitable for this soldier who has just returned from a hard battle and urgently needs to recuperate.

Wu Sangui's guard division surrounded the north to the west, Chen Jisheng's forward camp surrounded the north, and Zu Dabi's guard camp surrounded the north to the east.

Kong Youde led the cavalry division in the rear, as a temporary commander, commanding the siege of the northern city.

These four armies, one is Yang Chengying's pro-army, and the third is an old powerhouse, just to resist the Houjin army from the north.

Meng Qiaofang's first division was encircled to the west to the north, and Chen Xuance's Dongjiang camp was encircled to the west and south.

Sun Dingliao's lion camp is due west.

The temporary commander was Meng Qiaofang, and he also had a cavalry regiment under his command to reinforce the battle in the north at any time.

Zu Dale's folding camp is north to the east, and Zu Dachunying's camp is south to the east.

The artillery unit led by Peng Qigu was erected on the mountain as a rear response.

The interim conductor is Zu Dale.

The rest of the cannons, loaded with wheels, were under the command of Huang Long. and Li Weiluan and Shen Zhixiang's firearms battalions are ready to support the north at any time.

Yang Chengying sat firmly in Diaoyutai and prepared for the next thing.

Logistics!
