Chapter 070: Battle of Quang Ninh II

"Master, master..."The cronies and servants quickly ran into Fei Yingdong's big tent.

Because he was waiting for the rabbit, Fei Yingdong took off his armor and slept: "Speak." ”

"The Ming army crossed the river in three ways."

Sou...

Fei Yingdong sat up, and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "The Ming army really thinks that it is a good strategy to divide the troops and forge ahead, they seem to have forgotten the lesson of Salhu, and ordered someone to carefully investigate the details, and also, immediately pass on our military order, and the whole army will assemble." ”

From time to time, various generals such as Ezhen, Niu Lu, and Zhang Jing gathered in Fei Yingdong's big tent, and at this moment the herald was reporting: "General Qiyu, the Ming army crossed the river in three ways, ten miles downstream, ten miles upstream, and their camp. ”

"How many people are there on each road?" Fei Yingdong asked.

The herald was stunned for a moment, and said, "It is too dark for the rangers to see clearly, but judging from their torches, there should be five or six thousand people downstream, one or two thousand people in the middle reach, and about eight or nine thousand people in the upstream. ”

Cherge arched his hand towards Fei Yingdong: "Chang Kechi, the little nephew is willing to lead Ben Niulu's men and horses to stop the enemy in the middle of the swim." ”

Adahai saw that his brother had spoken, so he also gave his hand: "Brother Mother, give me a thousand fine horses, and I will stop the enemy downstream." ”

Fei Yingdong squinted his eyes, and then nodded: "The Ming army is arrogant, vainly trying to learn from Salhu to attack by different routes, although our army has few people, but it is better than the cavalry, and the back and forth is also fast, since they cross the river by different routes, we will also block the attack by separate routes;

Cherge, give you 1,000 fine cavalry, plus 1,000 foot soldiers, and let you intercept the Ming army in the middle reaches, Ada Hai, give you 2,000 fine cavalry, plus 3,000 foot soldiers, to intercept the Ming army downstream; ”

As he spoke, he looked at his son: "Nahai, you take five thousand elite horsemen, plus three thousand foot soldiers, and go upstream to intercept them; There are 2,000 elite cavalry and 3,000 foot soldiers left, and I will personally sit in the camp and be responsible for supporting you and others. ”

"Tsk..."

"Newspaper... Master, a letter from Shenyang. ”

A group of people were about to leave, and when they heard the news that Shenyang was coming, they all stopped, Nurhachi is here, what news can Shenyang have?

Fei Yingdong took the letter, opened it, and his body shook and took a few steps back.

"Master, master...", the servant quickly stretched out his hand to hold on.

"Hey..."Fei Yingdong sighed, and then handed the letter to Cherge: "Take a look." ”

Cherge didn't know what to do, when he read the words on the letter clearly, he shouted 'Amma' and knelt down, Adahai saw this, he didn't know the situation, and looked at Fei Yingdong with trembling hands: "Brother Am, I'm Amata..."

Fei Yingdong nodded: "Chen Cao is on the other side of the river, and I don't know which direction to attack from, so as long as you defeat them, you will take revenge." ”

Cherge and Adahai had red eyes, then got up and looked at each other, and then left silently.

...

The distance between the north and south banks of the Great Liao River was fifty paces, and although the strong bow could shoot at each other, in the dark night, the Great Liao River with a river beach brought great benefits to Chen Cao's sneak attack troops.

"Uncle," Zhang Fengnian was dressed in the same way, and he was carrying a flintlock pistol behind his back: "It's time to act, Lord Wang's troops have already set off." ”

"Did the brother who explored the path ahead figure it out?"

Chen Cao specially sent a few soldiers with good water skills to sneak over to investigate the situation.

Zhang Fengnian nodded: "The Tartars are also divided into several groups of men and horses, the cavalry and foot soldiers act together, and there is a bush in the landing place chosen by the uncle, which can cover our past." ”

"Order, each department and thousands of households cross the river in turn, take their weapons," Chen Cao said after saying that, he put the flintlock pistol behind his back, and then jumped into the water first.

"Brothers, our Songjiang Wei has no bad seeds, this time Uncle let our Wei land alone, that is to look at us, Commander Tian was injured in Niangniang Palace, now, let me advance and retreat with you." Wang Xiaojie shouted, then jumped onto the boat with a torch.

Cherge was immediately on the river beach on the north bank, looking at the torches that had been raised in the opposite river, and all his anger turned into killing intent, there were only two thousand people in the middle reaches, and there were a thousand elite horsemen and a thousand foot soldiers on his side, and killing all these people was a snap of a finger.

"Listen to the whole army, don't let the arrows go, let the dogs cross the river, remember, I don't want to take them prisoner, kill them all, their property is yours."

Cherge's eyes were red with hatred, and they didn't even want their favorite Ming army prisoners, and when their men heard that the conditions were so tempting, they all rubbed their hands, and even those clothed Han soldiers swallowed their saliva one by one.

"My lord, why is it so quiet?"

Wang Xiaojie's personal soldier captain looked at him with an uneasy expression, Wang Xiaojie looked at the river beach that was about to arrive, and his heart beat faster: "Order, after going ashore, use the shield array as a cover, the Tartars will definitely be waiting for us." ”

The Jurchen cavalry and shooting are unparalleled, and the idea that the Ming people are not afraid is not only the norm here in Cherge, but also after Ada Hai arrived downstream, Han Shun Benwei has not been affected in several battles, and the whole guard has 5,600 people, and Ada Hai is 2,000 elite cavalry and 3,000 foot soldiers, the number of people is almost the same, but in the eyes of Ada Hai, even if there are no 3,000 foot soldiers, these 5,000 people can be completely defeated with 2,000 elite cavalry.

Therefore, when Han Shun crossed the river with great fanfare according to Chen Cao's order, Ada Hai also ordered the soldiers not to release arrows and let them cross the river.

'Phew...'

"My lord, there are Tartar ambushes."

As soon as the shield soldiers who came ashore in front formed a formation, they heard the sound of horses and the shouts of the Jurchens, although they could not understand it, but because they did not understand it, they knew that the Jurchens had an ambush.

Wang Xiaojie had expected it a long time ago, but he didn't expect that the Tartars would take the initiative to let them cross the river, and immediately remembered what Chen Cao said, he was the main force this time, and it was unknown whether he could survive or not.

"The shield array is assembled, the archers are covered, the three-eyed guns are set up, and the guns are ready to be thrown..."

Every guard has firearms, more or less, and the three-eyed gun is standard, Cherg is not stupid, cavalry running in the dark night is taboo, but there are foot soldiers under him, so let the foot soldiers attack first.

As soon as Chen Cao landed on the shore, he heard the sound of muskets two miles away: "Quick, they are fighting." ”

Zhang Fengnian's 300 family Ding team landed first, and entered the bushes under the help of the brothers who crossed the river first, while the right guards behind them swam ashore one by one under the moonlight, and advanced one after another.

"Uncle, there is a large camp of Tartars in front, this battle is dangerous, it is better to let the humble leader go first." Tang Kainian's team of thousands of households only had about 500 people left after several battles, and the loss was the greatest.

Chen Cao stared at the fire in the distance and shook his head: "This sneak attack must not go wrong, otherwise I will not be able to go back." ”

"Uncle," Zhao Xin climbed down to the grassy position where Chen Cao was lying on the ground: "It's good to investigate, there are two gates in the Tartars, one in the north and one in the south, there are sentinels directly opposite, there are rangers patrolling around, and there is a noise in the camp tent, thinking that the Tartars are ready." ”

"Did Xu Kai come over first?" Chen Cao shouted quietly.

"It's coming..."Xu Kaixian came at a trot: "Uncle, the things are here." ”

Chen Cao stared at Tang Kainian and said: "All the earth-shattering thunder in the firearms workshop will be given to you, and after blowing up the gate of their camp, none of them will be allowed to be left for me, and all of them will be thrown in, tell you to team thousands of households, and give me the strength to feed, if anyone gives me a kick, I will cut off your Tang Kainian's head." ”

Tang Kainian saluted Chen Cao: "Once you ask the uncle, rest assured, the humble position will definitely blow the tartar to pieces." ”

Fei Yingdong was waiting for news in the camp, and it was three o'clock in the morning, when people were sleepy and tired: "Ming people just like night attacks, and they are really fighting against us in broad daylight, and they are not opponents." ”

Fei Yingdong shook his head, and was about to reach out to grab the tea bowl on the desk, when a bang knocked the tea bowl down.

"What happened?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of explosions sounded, and he was unsteady on his feet.

"Master," the cronies and servants crawled in: "Ming dog sneak attack, Ming dog sneak attack." ”

"It's really bold," Fei Yingdong scolded angrily, then grabbed the long knife and rushed out of the big tent, at this moment because of the explosion of the earth-shattering thunder, his camp was on fire.

"Akito's earth-shattering thunder." Fei Yingdong muttered that during the Battle of Fushun, he had seen the soldiers guarding the city use this kind of thing, and this kind of simple grenade made by the Ming Dynasty made the world's most advanced simple grenade made them suffer a great loss at that time.

"General, Minggou rushed in."

Fei Yingdong's big tent was in the center, and he couldn't see the situation on the periphery at all, but at this moment, there was a loud burst of gunfire, one after another: "Quick, gather the cavalry and crush this group of Ming troops, they must be all foot soldiers, sneak attack, there are not many people, let Su Wayan take the clothed army to the top." ”

The camp was blown up by the earth-shattering thunder, and the two brothers of Tang Kainian rushed inside with people to the death, but this time it was not a random shooting, but the whole team, according to the general flag department as a unit to advance step by step, carrying out a three-stage shooting queue.

Fight as you go...

This went down to give full play to the coherence of the flintlock muskets, and the Tartar infantry had just come up, and a single salvo could bring down at least twenty or thirty people, and after a three-stage shot, seventy or eighty people fell in a pool of blood.

Su Wayan was the son of Fei Yingdong, and was ordered to lead the 3,000 clothed foot soldiers, and seeing that the front could not be penetrated at all, he ordered the sergeant to release arrows first to block Tang Kainian's pace, and then let the cavalry go out from the north gate and conduct cavalry shooting after going around.

The tactics were very effective, and from time to time Tang Kainian's first general flag department was shot and killed.

Chen Cao was right behind them, and when he saw this, he immediately asked the 2,000 households to go up, and he himself led the 300 families around the front and entered from the right flank.

The sound of muskets was getting closer and closer, and Fei Yingdong felt very uneasy, so he ordered the two thousand elite cavalry left behind to act separately in Niulu as a unit, and be sure to kill this sneak attack of the Ming army.

'Bang bang bang...'

There was a rapid sound of muskets, and the foot soldiers around Fei Yingdong fell to the ground one after another, Fei Yingdong was shocked, and he didn't expect that the opponent had attacked the edge of his big tent.

"Block them..."

Cherge was the closest to the camp, but six or seven miles, his cavalry had broken through Wang Xiaojie's shield array, and the two sides had already been killed, and in another half an hour, they would definitely be able to completely annihilate more than 2,000 Ming troops.

"Master, look."

Following the minions' fingers, Cherg suddenly noticed that the camp was in flames, and if you listened closely, you could still hear the gunfire on that quiet summer night.

A horse from a distance came quickly, with a torch in his hand, and shouted before he reached Cherge's command: "Lord Ezhen, the big thing is not good, the Ming army has attacked the camp, and the general orders you to return to help immediately." ”

"The hateful Ming dog..."Cherge scolded, according to the Han people, Er Yidu and Fei Yingdong are in-laws, and his younger brothers Adahai and Chaohar are Fei Yingdong's sons-in-law, the two families have a close relationship, at this moment Fei Yingdong was attacked, and he was ordered to return to help, and he was helpless.

Wang Xiaojie's department in front of him has been rushed by the cavalry, and even Wang Xiaojie himself has been slashed twice, the cloth armor on his body has long been rotten, and his subordinates are already unable to resist, not to mention half an hour, that is, when there is a stick of incense, his side will be completely finished.

"Blow the trumpet, collect the troops, turn around the whole army, and rescue the battalion." Cherg shouted, and then led his team back to the camp.

Wang Xiaojie was exhausted, he was ready to commit suicide and martyrdom, who knew that at the critical moment, the cavalry of the Tartars suddenly withdrew when the horn sounded, so that he saved his life.

"My lord, the Tartar has withdrawn, and the uncle has succeeded," a thousand-household official actually cried after speaking.

Wang Xiaojie ordered someone to bandage his wounds, and then stood up with difficulty and said, "Order, the whole team is assembled, and we will also go over to support the uncle." ”

"Yes," Senhu Guan replied loudly as he stood up.

Although Han Shun was not affected by the whole guard, but he lacked the experience of the battle, compared to Wang Xiaojie's remnants of the Songjiang Wei army, even if there were many people, but they also suffered a huge blow, the whole guard was killed by Ada Hai and fled, many people were taken prisoner, and some soldiers even turned around and ran back to the ferry, and then slipped away.

Han Shun couldn't suppress the scene at all, and only took a team of three hundred Dingding and the commander Tongzhi Nan Xiangyun to support it with seven or eight hundred people.

However, just as they sensed that the end was near, the Tartar cavalry suddenly withdrew.

"Lord Han, this..."Nan Xiangyun was puzzled.

Han Shun had already been beaten into a circle, and it took a long time to react: "It must have been the uncle's army that killed him, and the Tartars were in a hurry to rescue, so they withdrew." ”

"So what do we do?" Nan Xiangyun asked.

"Where's Zhang Da?" Han Shun looked around and did not find the figure of the conductor Zhang Da.

Nan Xiangyun said: "I don't know, he is on the right wing, will he be coerced by the soldiers to run across the river?" ”

"If that's the case, the official will definitely ask the uncle to cut off his head," Han Shun said after speaking: "Quick, gather the team, as many as you want, let's follow the footsteps of the Tartars and go to support the uncle." ”

"Yes..."

Nahai had the most men and horses in his hands, and after learning that the battalion was asking for help, he had already given up the battle with Song Che and hurriedly returned to help, but he also left a thousand cavalry and all the foot soldiers to slow down Song Che's footsteps, and then personally led the men and horses back to help.
