Chapter 340: Reversal of the Situation III

"The order goes down, all the departments insist on it, and immediately pursue Jiannu, they will definitely flee, Zhang Yingwu's 52nd division can't stop Amin, and strive to defeat Jiannu's main force in Korea in a battle."

"Yes..."

North Korea in the second half of the night is cold, especially in October.

Whew...

Even on his horse, Amin was panting as a cow as he had to collect the fleeing defeated soldiers along the way.

Erli rode his horse and hurried over: "Amma, something bad happened, Minggou suddenly appeared in the Biho Pavilion, the camp of the Biho Pavilion was captured, and Zierharang and Dudu were attacked from inside and outside, and now they have retreated to the Bongri River Field. ”

"How's it going over there?"

Erli was a little bitter: "Ming Dog is full of firearms, they occupied the mountain pass north of the Biho Pavilion, and they condescendingly caught me off guard. ”

Only then did Amin see that there were only a few dozen horsemen left under Elli's command.

"Mr. Ning..."

Amin ran out of ideas, his first defeat was also the first time he ran for his life, so he could only turn to Ning Wan for help.

"Is Tongxian Pass still in the hands of our army?"

"It's still there, I don't know what will happen after I'm done."

In the face of Erli's answer, Ning Wan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Our army has a large number of people, even the Ming army has no fast shortcut to pursue, and it is now three o'clock, and there is still more than an hour before dawn, which is enough for us to pass through the pass safely;

Baylor, using the Wuhan Iron and Steel car as a cover, but..."

Naturally, the people covering could not escape safely.

Ning Wan considers himself a Manchurian, so he can't show pity for the Han people, but he is a Han in his bones, and he can't say it.

But Amin knew, so he said coldly: "Li Sizhong...

Now is the time for your allegiance to my Daikin. ”

Although Li Sizhong complained bitterly, he didn't dare to speak in front of Amin, otherwise according to Amin's identity, it would be for nothing to behead him on the spot.

"Yes, the end will be cut off..."

"Wait for Mang Gultai..."

Amin said from time to time.

There were many routs behind him, all of them were running away, and they were also mixed with the Mongolian cavalry, Li Sizhong ordered the Wugang car to be divided into two ways to cover, and when it was close to the Tongxian Pass, let the Jurchen cavalry pass first.

Sure enough, the passing Wuhan Iron and Steel car was hit by a bullet with a flaming light...

"Let's go..."

.

"Kill..."

Shuo Xuan, who was pursued all the way, didn't know how many times he scolded the Korean royal family along the way, and he didn't even want to repair the road, and it was not so slow when he came, but when he fled, he found that the official road of North Korea was surprisingly rotten.

was actually caught up by the Ming army running.

Paju Mufang Camp Fortress, originally the northern barrier of Hanyang, North Korea, Seki Fortress is built on the mountain, due south towards Hanyang is the Eunpancheon, west is the Valecheon, east is the Yeonphung River, Masan Station stands in the middle of the intersection of the three rivers, want to leave Gyeonggi-do and enter the northern Hwanghae-do, except for the northeast of Yangyang and the west of the Ganghwa waterway, there is only one road here.

When the Mang Gurtai army went south to the Biho Pavilion, in order to prevent accidents, three thousand elite cavalry of the Han Army Zhenghuang Banner were stationed here, and what was unexpected was that the source of the Han cavalry incorporated into the Zhenghuang Banner was the Guanning Iron Cavalry under the command of Zu Dashou who stayed on Juehua Island.

Shuo Zhi entered the city in a panic with dozens of people, and Zu Dashou, who was already the chief soldier, learned that the Ming army was pursuing, so he launched a military mutiny that night, sent his own personal guards to surround the camp where Shuo Zhi was located, and killed the Jurchen generals of the prison army and the defeated army brought by Shuo Zhi on the periphery.

At the same time, he sent someone to inform Liu Xingzuo, and learned that it was Zu Dashou himself, Liu Xingzuo did not suspect fraud, and immediately rushed into the city of Mashan Station with thousands of people.

"Sin General Zu Dashou, meet General Liu..."

Liu Xingzuo helped Zu Dashou and comforted: "General Zu abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, he is the hero of my Ming Dynasty, and the prince also mentioned the general in front of me, I believe that when the prince comes, he will definitely give the general an explanation." ”

"Thank you General Liu for your kind words, this is a thief."

There is no need for Zu Dashou to introduce Liu Xingzuo to know, after all, he used to be Nurhachi's forehead, how can his children and grandchildren not recognize it, Shuo Xuan's mouth is tightly gagged, except for his babbling muffled shouts, there is no other sound in the tent.

"Strictly guard the city, wait for the arrival of the prince's army... General Zu, are your subordinates still loyal? ”

The cavalry under the command of Zu Dashou has good combat effectiveness, and the reason why they surrendered was also forced to be helpless, and now that they have the opportunity to return to the Ming anyway, it is also a big deal, so naturally they can't be sloppy: "The subordinates are all composed of Liaodong military households, all of them are Han people, and they are loyal." ”

"That's good... By the way, the prince doesn't like this rattail braid, what does General Zu think? ”

Zu Dashou cut off the braid without hesitation, and then threw it into the brazier.

Seeing that he was so resolute, Liu Xingzuo nodded with satisfaction.

..

"Speed up, you must not run Amin..."

Chen Cao's subordinates quickly pursued after collecting the war horses, and at this moment the sky was already bright, and the rotten North Korean official roads were full of people, pursuing, chased, captured, and continuous.

When Chen Cao's department had just crossed the Tongxian Pass and arrived at the Bihu Pavilion, the Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles along the road were all black and gray, which was enough to show the fierceness of the battle.

After converging with Tang Yannian's headquarters left behind, Chen Cao led his men and horses to chase straight towards Fenshui Courtyard.

"Someone's coming..."

On the city, Liu Xingzuo, who had not slept all night, had been guarding the city, his eyes were bloodshot, and in the thousand miles of mirrors, a big flag came into view first, and then thousands of defeated soldiers who were running.

"Is it someone who is acting for good?"

The banner of the Zhenghong Banner is easy to recognize, but Jiannu does not like to use the banner to make the name of the leading general.

Du Du and Zilharang walked side by horse, and after passing by the Fengri River Field and finding that the grain and grass camp had been destroyed, they went all the way north, and they wanted to arrive at the defense camp as soon as possible, as long as they entered the gate, they would be safe.

There were more than 40,000 people, and after the bald valley was attacked from both sides, only more than 5,000 people remained, and there were still more than 1,000 Korean troops fleeing behind.

"I'm Du Du, open the city gate quickly."

"Alan minions, are you trying to rebel... Why don't you open the door yet? ”

Whew...

There was no one in the city before, and after Du Du scolded, Liu Xingzuo, who had been in ambush for a long time, immediately stood up, surrounded by sharpshooters in the army, raising their guns at Du Du not far away.

"Put..."

'Bang bang bang... Bang bang bang...'

There was a volley, and even if Du Du reacted and turned over to the side of the war horse, he was still hit by the raindrops of lead bullet and died under the city on the spot.

He was also killed by more than a dozen of his own soldiers.

Zilharang ran in the position of the Chinese army, he had the task of suppressing the defeated Korean army that followed, how did he know that Guancheng had fallen into the hands of the Ming army.

"What, Dudu is dead?"

"It's dead, the city is full of Ming troops."

The cries of Dudu's pro-army made Zilharang's soul tremble, and if the city of Mashan Station was lost, it would mean that they had become turtles in the urn.

"Quick, gather the army, at all costs, you must recapture Guancheng..."

Tang Yannian, who was chasing after him, pursued all the way with the men and horses of the Third Division, and even discarded the artillery with the army when he was in the bald valley, and just took the men and horses into battle lightly.

"Huh? The Tartars are attacking Guancheng? ”

"Xiao is sure that he is not mistaken, the military seat, the Tartars are trapped here, and there should be 52 divisions of men and horses in Guancheng."

"Throne, there are brother troops coming..."

Tang Yannian was still confused, so he saw Zhang Yingwu riding a horse galloping, he glanced at the scout meaningfully, then at Zhang Yingwu, and then at Zhang Yingwu dismounted: "Senior Commander Zhang, why is your department here?" What about General Liu? ”

Zhang Yingwu clenched his fists: "Commander Tang, General Liu led our division to raid the forage field of Tartar, and General Liu took the lead with a brigade of men and horses to the north to pursue Shuo Xuan. ”

"According to what you say, General Liu should take the defense camp Guancheng, and the scouts came to report that the defeated soldiers of the Tartars were blocked outside the Guancheng, and they were attacking the city."

"That's it..."Zhang Yingwu nodded.

"Division..."A herald of the 52nd Division rode his horse and ran: "The rear team of soldiers engaged the Tartars who caught up. ”

"Huh?" Tang Yannian was shocked: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang Yingwu told Tang Yannian that he did not block the Jiannu Wu steel car in Tongxian Pass, Tang Yannian was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it again, so he said bitterly: "It's bad, we are caught in the middle, Lao Cao..."

Tang Yannian looked at Cao Shixiu, who was a little embarrassed: "You lead a brigade of men and horses to attack the defeated troops of the Tartars outside Guancheng head-on, and strive to cooperate with the defenders of Guancheng to annihilate them." ”

After speaking, he walked towards Zhang Yingwu: "The rest of our army and your 52nd Division will block the Jiannu in the rear, I believe that the prince will be able to come soon." ”

Three successive attacks were all repulsed, and Zilharang's patience had been exhausted, and then the news of the arrival of the Ming pursuers came later.

"Master, what should I do?"

What to do? How do I know what to do?

Like an ant on a hot pot, he sent his elite armor-clad men to rush forward, but they were also beaten back by muskets and explosive objects, and the casualties had increased to more than a thousand.

And the rear was also shouting at the moment, the gunfire and the sound of the bowstring were going on at the same time, and Zilharang only felt that there were fewer and fewer people behind him.

Seeing that the red-eyed Jilharang could not break through the city, he waved his saber and pointed to the price-river mountain range on the left and shouted: "The whole army dismounts and enters the mountain to defend against the enemy..."

If he didn't run again, Zilharang firmly believed that his command would definitely not be able to stop the Ming army attacking from both sides.

However, when he gave the order to enter the mountain, the gate of Guancheng was opened, and the three thousand Guanning cavalry led by Zu Dashou rushed out of Guancheng, and the tail killed those routs who had no time to enter the mountain.

Liu Xingzuo left a regiment of men to garrison in Guancheng, and he took the rest of his men to support Tang Yannian, and gave Zu Dashou full responsibility for pursuing Jierharang's troops into the mountain.

"After this battle, cut off Jiannu's main force in North Korea, and Jiannu will no longer have the strength to compete with us for North Korea, and will even divide troops to guard against the Yalu River."

When Chen Cao learned that he had caught up with Amin's troops, he ordered his horse to rest in order to gather strength for today's final battle.
