Chapter 50 The last thing I need is food, grass and military resources
"The dead soldiers who fled back from the grain team lured the enemy into the auxiliary battalion."
Li Yunze, who was holding the Nikon Reading Field Telescope, saw the soldiers and horses of the Derge class rushing into Songshan Fort in the distance, and waved his hand in a good mood, "Man Gui, lead the troops to seal the city." ”
The Tartar horses were more cavalry, more experienced, and more vigilant.
Matsuyama is said to be a mountain, but in fact it is the same as Xingshan and Tashan, and it is very empty all around, and it is very difficult for the army to ambush it.
What Li Yunze wanted was total annihilation to boost the morale of the whole army.
In this case, he chose to throw the grain team and Songshan Fort as bait one after another to seduce Derge into the urn.
After Derge burned the grain of the grain team, he rushed into Songshan Fort without hesitation.
When Mangui's cavalry rushed over to surround the city, he could no longer run.
"Hooray." Cao Bianjiao, who went out with the army, was slightly regretful: "It's a pity that there are so many grains, grasses, and military funds." ”
"I can't bear the child to trap the wolf, and I can't bear the daughter-in-law... Ahem. Li Yunze on horseback waved his hand magnificently, "What are the grain and grass materials, I have them!" ”
He's really not bragging, he really has too much food and grass to count.
"Let's go." Urging the war horse under his crotch, the high-spirited Li Yunze rode forward, "Let's also go out of the battle, kill the Derge class today and return to the camp to eat a big feast." ”
The Derge class, who didn't know that he was already in a catastrophe, was counting the military resources in Songshan Fort with envy.
"Lord Belle, a lot of meat, a lot of wine."
In addition to the mountains of grain and grass, Songshan Fort also stored a large amount of alcohol, oil, meat, cloth and other military materials.
This is really reluctant for the Tartar bandits.
"Lord Belle, if only I could take this away."
"I want to take it away." The Derge class, who was at the head of the fortune, sighed with a red face, "It's a pity, we can't get lucky when we go deep alone." That's it, the sons and daughters can eat and drink as much as they can. When the Ming dog reinforcements from Jinzhou come, we will light a fire and withdraw. ”
"Congratulations to Lord Belle, this battle is a great achievement to burn the Ming dog food and grass reserves."
"Hahahaha~~~" Derge laughed proudly, "It's all because the dog is too weak, so the military is so heavy that he actually fled without a fight." The master received military merits from the Great Khan, so naturally he will not be missing your share..."
"Lord Belle, it's not good!" It was the time when the spirit was high, and there were Tanma crazy to report that "there are a large number of Ming troops outside the fort!" ”
Derge, with an awe-inspiring expression, hurried up to the city wall.
Raising his eyes and looking around, he was not lightly frightened.
Songshan Fort was full of smoke and dust in all directions, and the Ming cavalry of the tide-like army swarmed in.
"How could it be..."
The iron-faced Derge clutched the horsewhip, "The master has been fooled!" The cavalry of the Guanning army all came. ”
"Gather your men quickly, get on your horse and rush out!"
"Master, the thing hasn't burned yet..."
Derg slapped a horsewhip and said, "Burn you XXX!" If you don't run, you'll die! ”
The five military camps were mainly cavalry, and no one dared to eat empty salaries when they were fully paid.
There were 3,000 soldiers in one battalion, and 12,000 men in four battalions.
In addition to the auxiliary infantry to watch the horse transportation, there must be as many as 10,000 horsemen.
Thousands of horses galloped from all directions, and the momentum was shocking.
The derg class is arrogant, not a sand sculpture.
He has about 2,000 people, and he is also deep in the hinterland of the Ming army, or it won't be long before the army of people will surround him.
There is nothing to say at this time, and oiling the soles of your feet is the only option.
The five military battalions after the selection and addition of some Guanning iron cavalry are very strong in combat effectiveness.
The Tartars, who were urgently assembled, ran into the Ming cavalry head-on within two miles of leaving the city.
Swords come and go, guns poke axes and chop.
Under the smoke and dust, between the staggered horses, one figure after another fell off the horse, and then disappeared under the countless hooves of the horses.
As soon as Pu fought, the Derg class obviously sensed that something was wrong.
The Ming army has an extremely strong desire to fight here, and it is very brave to fight to the death. There is no such thing as the Guanning Iron Cavalry in the past, and it is mainly cautious to avoid the war.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the families of the Guanning Army are no worse than the Tartars.
The five battalions lacked combat experience, but their equipment was better than that of the Tatars, and their will to fight was stronger.
The most important thing is that there are a lot of them.
Tens of thousands of cavalry besieged 2,000 horsemen, and as the battlefield became more and more crowded, the casualties of the Tartars increased rapidly.
"Master!" A Bayala pro-soldier rushed over and grabbed the reins of the Derge class, "There are too many dogs, and the minions are protecting the master and rushing out to the north!" ”
Derge looked around, the cavalry of the Ming army came too fast, and they were surrounded in all directions.
At this time, if you break through, let alone whether you can stand out, even if you go out, the more than 2,000 horses he brought basically have to be thrown here.
The Tartars were a bandit group, and their forces belonged to the leaders of the Beylers.
More than 2,000 horsemen are the property of his Derge class, and if the whole army is annihilated, even if Huang Taiji can bypass him, but without soldiers and horses in his hands, the bannerman, wealth, goods, slaves, and grange will inevitably be swallowed up by his brothers.
Thinking of this, the red-eyed Derge suddenly gritted his teeth, turned his horse's head and roared, "Go, go back to Songshan Fort!" ”
His idea was simple, Songshan Fort was extremely strong, and it stored a large amount of military grain and grass.
If you can hold on, it is better to hold on until Huang Taiji wins. If you can't hold it, you can also use the military resources in the city to negotiate with the Ming army in exchange for a way to survive.
After all, continuing to fight in the wild can only be a dead end.
They have horses that can run, but can the Ming army run with their legs?
It's so far away from the camp that you can't go back even if you are tired of the horses. The Ming army pursued and killed all the way, and there was no chance to escape at all.
Songshan Fort was behind him, and when the Tartars retreated, the Ming army took advantage of the situation to cover up and bite off a large bite of the soldiers and horses behind the palace.
When the Derge class ordered the city gate to be closed and the number of people counted on the city wall, his heart suddenly felt cold.
There were more than 2,300 people when they arrived, but now there are less than 1,500 left.
In less than half an hour, the battle actually lost as many as 800 people.
What made Derge's heart even more chilling was that the generals beside him trembled and stretched out his hand to prompt, "Lord Belle, look at that flag!" ”
In the distance, thousands of Ming troops, surrounded by a large banner held high, slowly approached Songshan Fort.
"What's that?" Derge was puzzled: "I've never seen this kind of flag." ”
"Lord Belle." As early as the Battle of Salhu, the voice of the general who was captured and surrendered trembled: "That's Daxu, Longqi Daxu!" ”
"Tell me what it is!"
"The dragon pattern can only be used by the emperor, and the Ming Emperor is here~~~"
"Da Ming... The emperor is coming? Just to deal with me? ”
Derge really can't understand it, he is very cautious when he acts, how did the Ming Emperor know his whereabouts, and even take the initiative to ambush himself here?
And he is just a little Baylor, and he can actually lead the Ming Emperor to take action personally.
"Hooray."
Man Gui, who personally charged into the battle, rode his horse and saluted Li Yunze, "The slave has been forced back into the fort, and the field battle formation has been slashed eight hundred and thirteen levels before. ”
"Well done." Li Yunze smiled and said, "The soldiers who died in battle should be reined in, the wounded should be treated, and the bereavement pension should be distributed in a timely manner." Those who have won the battle merits, according to the previous orders, each head is one hundred taels. ”
As soon as the news came out, the cheers suddenly shook the world.
A very important reason why the Ming army fought so bravely was that Li Yunze agreed to this battle, regardless of whether he was a soldier or not, those who won the first rank would receive a reward of 100 taels of silver.
The Ming army won in the battle battle, and there was a reward.
In the past, the highest reward was the Northern Captives on the grassland, but after the rise of the Later Jin, it was changed to the Tatars.
Normally, a soldier would receive fifty taels of silver for his catch.
It is difficult to kill the armor, and the reward is often deducted, so the results of the Ming army have never been high.
Being able to win hundreds or thousands in a battle is already a rare victory.
"What are they shouting?" Li Yunze, who was very interested, saw through the telescope that a group of Tartars were shouting in unison on Songshan Fort, a few miles away, "Go and listen." ”
If you don't have a lot of effort, you will be able to report quickly.
"Long live, the tenth son of the old slave in the city, Derge, he said to beg Banzai to let them go, otherwise they will burn the food and military materials in Songshan Fort."
"Sand sculptures."
Li Yunze was amused, "Those food army capital is the bait to hook him, and the last thing I lack is these things." ”
Turning his head to look at Cao Wenzhao on the side, "Go, let the Shenji Battalion attack the city." ”
"Yes!"
The anxious Derge waited for the reply of the Ming Emperor, hoping that so much food and military resources in Songshan Fort could be exchanged for his life.
But what he was waiting for in the end was more than 20 cannons dragged by mules and horses.
The five military battalions retreated and were blockaded on the perimeter.
The Shenji Battalion stepped forward, and more than 20 new cannons opened fire on Songshan Fort.
In the thunderbolt of a clear day, heavy projectiles smashed into the city wall, shattering the masonry and smashing cracks.
Derge was in a hurry, but the original city defense equipment on Songshan Fort had been dismantled, and everything that could not be dismantled had been destroyed, and he couldn't reach it if he wanted to fight back.
In a hurry, he ordered people to shout again: "Don't you want food, grass and military funds?" ”
He was met with even more intense shelling.
The new artillery has been greatly improved in all aspects of performance, especially in terms of power.
After several rounds of intensive bombardment, the city gate on this side was completely shattered, and the city gate tower was also blown down, revealing a gap.
Because of the tight schedule, the Tartars didn't have time to fill the gates.
Thousands of Shenji battalion firearms soldiers lined up in a dense formation with bureaus and divisions, pressing forward step by step and suppressing the city head with dense shooting.
As the horn sounded, a larger number of cannon fodder in the battalion of dead soldiers, wearing leather armor and holding weapons, roared loudly to cheer themselves up, and rushed to the smashed city gate.
For these cannon fodder, pardon can only be obtained by obtaining the head of the Tartar.
Under the unprecedented intensive fire of the Ming army, the city could not stand at all.
The embarrassed Derg hurriedly gathered his troops and horses and blocked the position of the city gate.
There are many cannon fodder, but it is difficult to break through the narrow breakthrough, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Tartar armor is really not weak.
But soon, several new guns were pushed up, and scattered bullets were packed at close range, and after a few shots, the Tartar armor who blocked the breakthrough was swept into a piece of blood gourd.
Seeing a large number of Ming troops swarming in, the Derge class, who knew that he would not be spared today, roared with red eyes, "Set fire and burn all the grain and grass!" ”
He turned to look hatefully at the big man in the distance.
"Even if the master is dead, he won't leave you a bite to eat!"
