Chapter 337: The Decisive Battle of the Blue Hoof Pavilion VI

Most of the people left behind in Fenshui Yuan were the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and after this part of the escort of grain and grass left, there were only more than 2,000 people in the Eight Banners of the Han Army and more than 1,000 people in the Eight Banners of the Jurchen Army.

When Shuo Zhen hurriedly dressed and opened the door, a group of soldiers rushed into the camp of Fenshui Courtyard with muskets, and for a while, the battle was fierce.

“......”

Zhang Yingwu couldn't understand the Jurchen words, at this moment he would Liu Xingzuo scatter and kill the enemy, so he could only grab the North Korean next to him and ask him, and finally learned that the Jurchen general who stayed behind had taken the lead.

"Shuo Zhi ran away?"

Liu Xingzuo hated it a lot, if he hadn't caught a few Jurchen captives in the end and learned that the people in the camp of Fenshui Courtyard were Shuo Tuo, otherwise he would have killed Shuo Tuo with all his life.

After all, they are all members of the so-called 'Yellow Belt' of the Nurhachi line, and they are the second son of Daishan, if they can kill Shuo Zhen, it will really be a great achievement.

"Expand the results of the battle and burn all the Tartar military rations here."

Zhang Yingwu found Liu Xingzuo with a solemn face, and said: "I just got the news from the captive, the grain team that left earlier was ordered by Amin to rush to the Bihu Pavilion, and the Tartars said that they had a big victory in the Bihu Pavilion, and this was to go to the army. ”

Liu Xingzuo's breath was a little short, his original task was to surround and attack Amin's rear, but because he temporarily got the news of Fenshui Academy, he changed his strategy, Amin would not send false news to Shuo Zhi in the rear for no reason, if it is true, then the situation on the side of the Biho Pavilion is very critical.

Zhang Yingwu hurriedly said: "General Liu, the prince's side is important. ”

Liu Xingzuo looked at Zhang Yingwu, and then said: "Give me a brigade, I will go north to block Amin's retreat." ”

Zhang Yingwu hurriedly opened the map, and then looked up: "General Liu, have you thought clearly?" ”

"Fenshui Courtyard is a big victory, no matter how powerful Amin is, it is impossible to destroy the prince's army without military rations, and our army is still an all-firearms army, so..."

Liu Xingzuo looked to the north: "Shuo Zhen will not dare to run back to Ping'an Road alone, otherwise Dai Shan will not be able to protect him, he has at most a thousand people under his command, and I will let Amin have no return this time." ”

Since the troops are to be divided, this means that Zhang Yingwu has to lead the army alone, Liu Xingzuo still takes good care of him, so he said: "Several guerrillas under my command have been with me in Korea for many years, and they are familiar with the terrain, and they will send you as a guide. ”

Zhang Yingwu was no longer hypocritical, arched his hand towards Liu Xingzuo, and then saluted him and turned his head away.

..

Looking at the foot soldiers who retreated like a torrent, Amin didn't feel distressed, after all, he fought all night last night, and his purpose was to exhaust the Ming army, and then step into the small city of Buukhan Mountain Fortress before nightfall.

Mang Gurtai wanted to kill someone, and when he looked at the Koreans who retreated in a hurry, he felt that there was nowhere to vent his evil fire.

"How's that, how is the artillery of the Ming army?"

Li Sizhong clenched his fists: "Baylor is angry, the long-barreled artillery is not much different from our Hongyi cannon, but the short-barreled artillery that was blown up makes the last general unclear, the short-barreled cannon is cast in iron, and the last general has carefully looked at the barrel, and there is no fire residue formed after firing in it." ”

Amin stared at the battlefield in the distance: "Listen to those red-haired ghosts explain that the Shanghai cannon factory in China is very powerful, maybe that short-barreled cannon is made of steel, which is more durable than bronze." ”

"Amin, I'm going to go."

Amin frowned and looked at Mang Gultai who came over, and shook his head: "Don't think that you were self-righteous when you won a big battle last night, you didn't see the corpse outside the city?" ”

Mang Gurtai disagreed: "Lowly Koreans and Han Chinese also deserve Ben Baylor's sympathy? ”

A few of Amin's henchmen next to him all felt that Mang Gurtai was a war reckless, and the previous siege was just a temptation, but even so, the first wave of 3,000 people who rushed up ran back only four or five hundred people, and many people were injured, and the second wave of 5,000 people went up under the charge of the Han Eight Banners and only came back less than 3,000 people.

Amin pointed to the west: "The army of the Korean prince Li Yu is about to arrive at the west gate, I estimate that in the evening, after they arrive, they will launch a general attack at night, and now...

You go to rest and recuperate, and you will fight tonight. ”

Mang Gurtai didn't dare to argue with Amin, so he scolded angrily and left, Amin took a rifle from Li Sizhong's hand, the rifle with a bayonet was two meters long, and the blood that had coagulated on it was definitely not the opponent's: "What's wrong?" ”

"It's similar to the red-haired man's flintlock musket, but I don't know what kind of gunpowder it hits."

"Bring back this batch of firearms of the Ming army, and let Geng Zhongming's minions study how to make them, and let's make them too, so that Ming Dog will suffer a lot."

.

The sound of artillery in the Bald Mountain Valley stopped, and the smoke of gunpowder was slowly dissipating, Tang Yannian wiped the sweat on his forehead, and then looked at Liu Butang beside him: "Isn't it the prince's side?" ”

There were many corpses of Tartars lying at the entrance and exit in the distance, Liu Butang put down the clairvoyant mirror and said: "Maybe, maybe not, but looking at how much Jiannu attaches importance to this place, they probably regard us as the main force." ”

"Whatever, the prince's order is to surround and sneak attack and disperse the forces of Jiannu, I propose to rest immediately, wait for all the shells to be exhausted after nightfall, and then give Taniguchi's Jiannu a fatal blow."

.

"Lord Wang, Jiannu has retired."

"Hmm..."

Chen Cao responded, and then opened his eyes: "Let's all go and rest, they will definitely act again in the evening." ”

.

On the Han River, a fleet of ships is marching, although the flag of North Korea is hung on it, but the soldiers on the boat are all dressed as Ming people.

"Master Hou, it's less than three miles away from Baishichang..."

"Pass the order, the whole army will land at Baishichang, and immediately support the Biho Pavilion."

"Yes..."

.

Time passed quickly, and when Chen Cao opened his eyes, fierce shouts of killing had already sounded outside the mountain city.

Chen Cao, who couldn't see his joy and anger, came to the east of the mountain city under the escort of a group of generals, and looked at the North Korean cannon fodder who was trotting through the siege on one side of the mountain.

"Give the order to the artillery battalion to destroy every artillery piece after all the shells have been fired."

Zhao Xin looked at Chen Cao in disbelief, and when he saw that no one else had said anything to stop him, he gave his hand: "My subordinates will do it." ”

"Lord Wang, the Ximen Korean army just attacked the city and was beaten down by our army."

Cao Shixiu, who rushed over, mocked: "Those people took our rifles, and they actually shot them, but the accuracy is really poor." ”

Chen Cao squinted half of his eyes, looked a little angry, and said in an unkind tone: "What, do you still want them to beat us to kill a few more brothers?" ”

"The last general has lost his word..."

"It must have been the captured soldiers who pressured the North Koreans of the church." Xu Fuyuan said with certainty, because Li Xianyun's brigade had captured nearly 1,000 people, and the rifle naturally fell into the hands of the North Koreans.

Chen Cao wants to lift the morale of the army, because they are in a foreign country, tonight's battle is the key, if they fail, they will not have a chance to return to Daming.

"Jiannu is rampant, and the Koreans are untrustworthy, but who are we? We are the Ming people, but the Heavenly Dynasty, and our background is superior to these people, but why?

Why since the beginning of Wanli, has been bullied by the Jiannu people, and after the Salhu, our Ming Dynasty has been in a slump, and today, those people in the Northern Dynasty have actually given up Liaodong and given up the territory that belongs to our Han people since the Qin Dynasty?

I Daming must not let the Jianzhou savages dominate, and I must not let the rebellious Koreans oppress, this king is here today, and all the soldiers live and die together, remember, this battle, must live and die, must die and live..."

"To live is to die, and to die is to live..."

"To live is to die, and to die is to live..."

"To live is to die, and to die is to live..."

Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, and the momentum of the military spirit suddenly reached a peak.

"What are they shouting inside?"

After Ning Wan, I pricked up my ears and listened for a long time, then shook my head: "I don't know, maybe it's the words of mobilization before the war." ”

"Amin..."Manggultai came on horseback: "My department is almost rested, and I didn't have much fun last night, so let's watch me fight tonight." ”

"Akito's firearms are sharp, you have to be careful."

"Don't worry..."Mang Gurtai turned his head to look at the cronies and servants beside him and shouted: "Go and call me that egg goods in Geril, don't their Mongolian cavalry boast that they are invincible in the steppe?" ”

Chen Cao has armor, but he is absolutely unwilling to charge the battle in person until the last moment, because this time is different from the past, and even now, it has not reached the point of running out of ammunition and food, and riding a war horse is to increase morale.

"They won't send cavalry until the critical moment."

Chen Cao read a sentence, and then watched the Koreans with arquebuses and bird guns rushing up with the Han Eight Banners.

"Command, free fire."

The sound of gunfire drowned out the wheezing and wailing, and the smoke of gunfire filled the sky over the fortress of Bukhansan after dusk, and the flocks of crows flying over the top of the black smoke were very bold, and they were also looking for the best opportunity to feed.

The sound of artillery that had been stopped for a long time rang out, the intensity was very large, and the explosion range was much wider than before, and the army formation of more than 20,000 people was like a flower blooming, and every time there was a splash of earth, dozens of people must have been killed and wounded.

"This is Akito's artillery?"

Several encounters were basically at night, and before nightfall, Amin finally saw the movement of the explosion in the vanguard formation.

"Go... Tell Mang Gurtai to suppress the Koreans, and if they dare to retreat, no one will be left. ”

Nearly 100 shells were all gone, and the residual temperature at the muzzle of the field artillery was even slightly reddened due to the ejection of the shell.

As far as the eye can see, the military formation of more than 20,000 people in front has been completely disorganized, and the Mang Gurtai who is pressing the formation is slashing and killing the Koreans who fled in a hurry and the firearms troops of the Han Eight Banners.

Li Sizhong rode to Amin's side: "Please also ask Baylor's men to show mercy." ”

Amin glanced at Li Sizhong: "General Li, didn't you see that they were about to attack the big array?" ”
