Chapter 431: Drinking and hating Xuzhou

Although Abatai's people ran to the camp, they left behind more than 10,000 cavalrymen of the Han army, and these people saw that there was no hope of escape, so they dismounted and asked for surrender.

Chen Cao also gave up the idea of killing prisoners, after all, it would be of great use to build these people in the future, so he accepted their invitation to surrender, and only killed all the senior generals at the level of staff generals and deputy generals above the guerrilla level, and arrested all the commanders above the guerrilla level and the commander of the thousand generals, and they had to receive political education in the future.

Chen Cao also rested comfortably, and met with Wang Xiaojie, and after praising him, he immediately led the army to the frontal normal, and brought the revolver machine gun that had shone in the previous to Song Che, so that he could resist the Haoge headquarters on the frontal battlefield.

"Your Majesty, please pursue the general."

Chen Cao looked at Gao Jie and nodded expressionlessly: "The various war zones behind have been fought, the entire Xuzhou has been beaten into a mess, many troops can't be contacted now, he Abatai was shot by me again, whether he is dead or alive is unknown, the battlefield behind is full of people, I don't believe they can't stop the more than 10,000 people." ”

It's not that Chen Cao doesn't want to pursue, but now the men and horses he sees are all exhausted, and this kind of army can't give full play to its greatest advantage when it comes to the battlefield, it is better to be infantry, rather than making a strong crossbow, it is better to let them rest for a while and then continue to fight, the effect is at least much greater.

"Pass the order, and the whole army will rest for half an hour..."

"Your Majesty," You Shiwei walked up to Chen Cao: "The minister thought that it was better to continue the pursuit, now that the entire battlefield is already intractable, the addition of cavalry can at least ease the battle situation." ”

The reason why Chen Cao chose to rest is also because of Wang Xiaojie's joining, from Wang Xiaojie's mouth, he has learned that Abatai has withdrawn all his troops from Xuzhou City, and Xuzhou has been successfully taken, all the main ferries in Xuzhou have been arranged to be garrisoned, and there are 36 small ferries in the rest of Xuzhou, and there is no way to evacuate more than 10,000 troops at the same time;

In addition, the arrival of the revolver machine gun also greatly increased Chen Cao's strength, and he had reason to believe that it was only a matter of time before the Qing army was defeated, especially the defeat of Abatai.

After listening to You Shiwei's words, Chen Cao nodded: "Since this is the case, then set off immediately." ”

The entire Xuzhou battlefield is indeed inseparable, especially the frontal battlefield, Haoge did not know that Abatai's plan to sneak attack the right flank of the Ming army's large array had failed, but he took 100,000 elite cavalry of the Manchurian and Han Eight Banners, and rushed to the front position of the Ming army at the beginning of the battlefield under the cover of Jierharang's artillery.

For this reason, Lou Xingye and Huang Degong also went into battle shirtless, carrying long knives and slashing wildly above the chaotic army.

As the commander, although Song Che could not go into battle to kill the enemy personally, he held a rifle on the high ground of the headquarters and fired a shot at a point, and nearly 100,000 people fought back and forth within a range of three miles, and the corpses were scattered all over the ground, and the blood formed a river and began to gather along the low-lying land.

The smell of blood hung over the entire battlefield.

Hauge was in high spirits and immediately stood in place, seeing the cavalry under his command who had broken through the defense line of the Ming army, and his figure was quite like the momentum of Naizu Nurhachi's battle in Xiping Fort.

"Lord Wang, our army has broken through the defense line of the Ming army, and the foot soldiers have also engaged them inside the Ming army."

Hauge's report to Goshha was only a symbolic nod, and now that the cavalry was repeatedly charging inside the Ming army, it was only a matter of time before the battle was won.

In the chaotic battlefield, Yiqi was a little confused, but if you look closely, this Goshha looks not only embarrassed, but also with a lot of fear.

"What's going on?"

As soon as an Aung Bang Zhangjing stopped the messenger Goshha, he heard a chaotic shout: "King Su, the king of the county has failed to attack, and the Ming people have counterattacked." ”

Hauge's previous good mood was gone at this moment, so Zhang Jing let Goshha in, and asked angrily: "Tell me what's going on?" ”

"Back to the king of Su, the Ming Emperor Chen Cao personally led tens of thousands of cavalry to start a decisive battle with the king of the county, the Ming people set up an ambush, seeing that our army was about to win a big victory, the Ming artillery opened fire behind our army, and our army was suddenly in chaos."

"Where is the king of Raoyu?"

Goshha shook his head: "After the king of the county personally broke off, Bei Zibolo led my 10,000 troops to break through to the middle of the battlefield. ”

Hauge gave up the idea of continuing to ask, now that Abatai's defeat was a fact, the focus was on whether his defeat would have a chain reaction, and if Goshha brought it back, Abatai himself broke it off, and Bolo with more than 10,000 people had broken through to the center of the battlefield at this moment.

"Who is that, call the Han strategist that my seventh uncle has been bringing with him."

Hauge was already panicking, and he couldn't even remember who was around him.

Wang Shi quickly rode his horse to Hauge's side, the reason for the matter has been known, and after arriving, he said: "Lord Su, while the Ming army's chasing troops have not yet arrived, and before the reinforcements are in place, first sweep the battlefield, and then concentrate the superior forces to take down the Ming general Song Che, Chen Cao will inevitably be restrained, if Song Che can be taken, our army will have a seventy percent chance of winning." ”

Hauge nodded hurriedly, perhaps because Abatai's defeat made him a little upset, and he couldn't even think of such a simple thing: "Immediately send an order to Zilharang, let his artillery extend to the Ming army's position, don't be stingy with shells, Su and Mei, send orders to the two yellow flags, and attack with this king." ”

The previous attack was still somewhat restrained, but the Qing army on the battlefield suddenly found that the Daxu Banner had actually arrived in front of the first position of the Ming army, and even the two yellow flags had been dispatched, so the commanders of Zhang Jing, deputy generals and others ordered the cavalry who were still resting and charging on the edge of the battlefield in turn to launch a fierce offensive again.

Several torrents of cavalry were like extended branches interspersed back and forth in the various defensive positions of the Ming army, as if entering a no-man's land.

Just when Hauge thought that he was about to achieve the set goal, there was a sudden and obvious commotion on the edge of the battlefield on the west side, and not long after, a large banner embroidered with the word 'Ming' appeared, led by Chen Cao.

Chen Cao took the lead, and under the cover of the guards, he rushed towards the Qing army that was interspersed back and forth in the middle of the battlefield with a sharp formation, and was met by the Zhenglan Banner cavalry led by Bolo.

The battlefield situation is extremely chaotic, not only the Ming army itself, but also the attacking Qing army does not know how to build, and the more than 10,000 people brought out by Bolo have also become seven or eight teams at the moment because of the attack, and the most team is only a team of more than 3,000 people around Bolo himself.

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

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

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

Chen Cao, who was in pursuit, was the first to let people shoot and kill the enemy, and polish the enemy's morale first, after all, Bolo's Blue Banner troops belonged to the frightened birds, and even the most elite troops had times when they were tired.

"Rush back..."

After Bolo found Haoge's banner, he seemed to see a savior, and desperately converged with Haoge's side, but the Ming army blocked in front of him was also formed because of the division of Haoge's army, not only did he have no way to rush over, but even the Ming army that was blocking in place had no way to converge with the large army.

Bolo's luck was really good, and a charging Yellow Flag Bull Lu spotted Bolo, and Bolo went with him to Hauge's location.

"King Su."

"Bolo, where are you, Amma?"

Bolo shook his head: "Amma asked me to lead the troops to break through, and after he broke it personally, I don't know the situation." ”

"Lord Wang, the cavalry of the Ming army joined the battle, and the forward battalion was defeated."

Bo Luo immediately said: "King Su, I recognize Chen Cao's appearance. ”

Hauge nodded: "I also recognize his appearance, coming, ready to attack." ”

The artillery fire in the sky has been raining down on the battlefield at this moment, so that the attackers on both sides have to choose to dodge, the Qing army's error do not attack so that the guards around Haoge Goshha have to dissuade Haoge who wants to charge, not only that, but also pull him out of the battlefield.

A shell exploded on Chen Cao's offensive line, Zhao Xin was shocked, and wanted to dissuade but found that Chen Cao had rushed to the front, the Qing army's cavalry and archery skills were very high, Zhao Xin was very worried that Chen Cao capsized in the gutter and was shot by the Qing army's cold arrows.

"Protect the Emperor..."

"Protect the Emperor..."

In the panic, a cavalry guarding the seriously injured and unconscious Abatai detoured into Haoge's escort circle, Haoge saw the already unconscious Abatai, his face was cold, Abatai was the commander of the Xuzhou battlefield, and his injury was a big blow to morale.

"Immediately escort the county king to the rear, block the news, and definitely not leak the news of the county king's injury."

"Tsk..."

.

A Niu Lu's cavalry had just charged to the edge of the battlefield from the center, and when the whole team was about to charge again, a large number of Ming infantry soldiers appeared on the edge of the battlefield, their formation was steady, not chaotic at all, and they marched towards the battlefield step by step with muskets.

Niu Lu was shocked when he saw this, this must be the reinforcements arranged by the Ming army, but his sight was only on the front line, so he ordered the team not to turn around, and directly charged forward after regrouping.

Wang Xiaojie ran very fast, there was only one of his guard regiments in the forward, and the follow-up troops were all behind him, so others saw that his troops were only about 1,000 people, which was a firearms unit of more than 1,000 people, and more than 300 cavalry were enough to break up all the 1,000 people, which was also Niu Lu's idea.

"Set up the revolver."

"Bullet..."

"Report to the military seat, the Tartars are charged."

Wang Xiaojie personally knelt behind the revolver, with a cruel smile on his face: "Hehe, how many people will die..."
