Chapter 76: The Battle of the Capital Division (6): The First Battle Outside the City
76 The first battle of the Battle of the Capital Division 6
At the same time of questioning, Zhu Youzhen's face was solemn.
The expectation hidden between his eyebrows, Wang Li noticed it!
Should...... And save!
At least for now, he doesn't want to move Yuan Chonghuan yet!
"Uh...... Long live Lord, what happened outside the city in the past few days may be a little misunderstood!
To prove that Yuan Chonghuan did not collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, it is actually very simple: Long live the Lord only needs to see him!
If he dares to enter the palace to meet him, it means that he has not collaborated with the enemy and committed treason! ”
Thinking about Wang Li's words, Zhu Youzhen nodded slightly.
Wuergou is right: at this juncture, if Yuan Chonghuan really collaborated with the enemy and committed treason, would he dare to enter the palace alone?
If he really collaborated with the enemy and treason, and he had military power in his hands, he would have no way to deal with him.
In any case, stabilizing him for the time being is the best policy!
"Pass on my oracle and let Yuan Chonghuan ......"
"Wan ...... Hooray...... Oh no...... Jiannu is attacking the city......"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The roar of the cannons can be heard clearly in the palace!
Faintly, you can still hear the sound of killing!
The ministers of the palace were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out!
"Long live the Lord don't panic, the little slave will go to the city to investigate!"
The sound fell, before Zhu Youzhen could speak, Wang Li had already strode away.
Since going to Liaodong once, Wang Li has become much bolder!
He always felt that the smell of sulfur after the gunpowder exploded was particularly pleasant!
Sometimes, even in the face of thousands of troops, there is no fear!
Of course, there must be a premise for this: you are in the city, and the enemy soldiers are under the city!
At this time, under the city, gongs and drums sounded, guns and cannons rang out, shouting to kill and shake the sky, Wang Li was indeed not afraid!
"Factory man, why are you here?"
Seeing Wang Li coming, several brocade guards hurriedly formed a shield formation and protected Wang Li behind him.
"It's okay!"
Wang Li pointed to his iron armor, then pushed away the wooden shield, and looked at the city nonchalantly: "Jiannu's musket and bow and arrows can't be shot here, afraid of him?"
By the way, over there, it's ...... that's messing up."
"Chang Gong, attacking our side are the four banners on the right wing of the Eight Banners and the Mongolian soldiers, with a strength of about two thousand;
Blocking the Eight Banners were Hou Shilu, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, and Man Gui, the chief soldier of Datong, with a strength of about 3,000! ”
"Like...... It's not good......"
Wang Li rubbed his eyes, but unfortunately the distance was too far away to see clearly.
"Hey, brother, lend me your binoculars!"
In front of the cannon, the gunner looked confused and tentatively handed the telescope to Wang Li.
The gunners in the city were musketeers from the Beijing camp, and they had been trained as artillerymen for less than five days!
They only learned to load packets and projectiles, and knew how to ignite and fire, but they didn't know how to aim!
Because the cannon is a parabolic shot at the target, which is very different from muskets and bows and arrows!
What kind of ranging, what kind of trigonometric function, almost no one can learn!
The cannon that was fired earlier was calculated by Sun Chengzong a long time ago!
As long as the Eight Banners enter a specific area, the gunner will fire and fire!
However, when the Eight Banners left that area, the gunners were confused.
So, the gunners in the city, in fact, are just decorations!
The only artillery of the Guanning Army who knows how to fire artillery is outside the Guangqu Gate at this time!
Just because they are "border troops", they can't enter the city as a rule!
The use of monoculars, Wang Li tinkered with a little and quickly learned!
Self-taught!
The telescope swept around and noticed several generals wearing red tasseled crowns and iron armor, Wang Li was overjoyed!
"I'll go! Are the several big Baylors of Jiannu all here? ”
"Changgong, according to our intelligence and observations, Dai Shan, Ji'er Harang, Yue Xuan, Du Du, Sakhalian and others should all be here!"
"Soga!"
Wang Li nodded with satisfaction and patted the cannon on the city: "You guys hurry up and make trouble, aim at those few people wearing red tassels, and kill him for me!"
Kill one, and the factory will reward 10,000 taels of silver! ”
Hearing this, the gunners in the city were all dumbfounded!
The soldiers of the Beijing camp, the musketeers have six taels of silver per month, and they are already up to the sky!
Killing a person wearing a red tassel crown can be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver?
What is this concept?
Don't worry about it for a few lifetimes!
After a short period of daze, the gunners hurriedly found the cannon operation manual as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and gathered together to discuss it.
This side is Desheng Gate, there are many Ming troops under the city, there are more than 500 musketeers alone, and the Eight Banners should not be able to attack it!
But......
In the telescope, I vaguely saw a few Jiannu cannons!
Nima!
Jiannu came from afar, where did the cannon come from?
This place is not suitable for a long time!
So, Wang Li said some words of encouragement, hurriedly jumped on his war horse, and came to the Guangqu Gate in the southeast corner.
Because Yuan Chonghuan was stationed here, Song Zhe kept an eye on the outside of the city in accordance with Wang Li's order.
On this side, the siege is no longer the foot soldiers, but the cavalry!
To be precise, the Eight Banners were not attacking the city, but fighting with Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning army!
"Gonggong, Manggultai, Abatai, Azig, Dolgon, Dordor and Haug, all here!
The white-armored guards and the Mongol cavalry, numbering about two thousand! ”
Wang Li nodded, his brows tightened!
Yuan Chonghuan is stationed under the Jingshi City, maybe, he can't wait for the support he wants!
Because, the Beijing camp in the city will not fire artillery, and only more than 500 musketeers will help in the battle!
Judging from the situation on the side of Deshengmen, because the battle site is far away from the city wall, the two sides are clenched together, and the muskets in the city are all decorations!
"Factory Gong, Jiannu's white-armored soldiers are here, and they are the iron cavalry that ambushed General Zhao!"
"Hmmm......"
"Factory Gong, at the gate of the city is Dai Chengen's foot soldiers in formation;
Inspector Yuan, Zu Dashou and Wang Chengyin each led 2,000 Guanning iron cavalry, and arranged the formation in the shape of "product";
Wang Chengyin is in the northwest, Zu Dashou is in the south, and Yuan Inspector is in the west......"
"I'll go!
You indicate the direction, can you not use "southeast, northwest"?
It's hard to understand, you know?
What you said, except for Dai Chengen under the city, I didn't see any of it!
You...... How do you know? ”
Wang Li threw away the binoculars and looked around depressedly.
"This ...... Earlier, the brothers who went out of the city to inquire said......"
As he spoke, he rode a fast horse to the city, shouted loudly, and after giving the command, he threw down a basket from the city.
The rider sat in the basket and was pulled up by the four defenders of the city.
"Factory father! Abatai, Azig, Dolgon, and Hauge each led the white-armored soldiers and attacked the Guanning Army Zu Dashou Division;
When he was about to engage the ancestral department, Jiannu discovered Wang Chengyin's department in the northwest, Haoge divided his troops to block it, and Wang Chengyin led the army to retreat;
The remaining three parts of Jiannu are still attacking Zu Dashou! ”
"That's all?
And then what?
Did Haoge catch up with Wang Chengyin?
Zu Dashou has one enemy and three enemies, how is the battle going?
Also, where are the cavalry of Inspector Yuan?
Where are Wu Xiang and Wu Sangui?
Did Wu Sangui die in battle? ”
Wang Li asked questions one after another, and the Jinyi guard who reported the news looked confused, and he couldn't answer anything.
"Uh...... The factory father, the brothers of the West Factory are still spying on the intelligence, and they will be able to report the battle situation soon! ”
"Gotcha, gotta gotcha, gotcha, go drink saliva, and explore again!"
"No!"
"By the way, Wang Chengyin...... Where did it come from? How come I've never heard of it? ”
"Wu Xiang and Wu Sangui should be in Zu Dashou's army;
Wang Chengyin, who guards the west of the city, has never heard of it under his subordinates, so he should ...... It should be the troops of King Qin, who entered the capital......"
"Report ......"
Another fast horse came to the city, and after being pulled up the city wall, he hurriedly reported: "Zu Dashou was defeated and retreated, and Jiannu gathered four soldiers and horses to kill Wang Chengyin's ......"
"I'll go! Yuan Chonghuan! Where is Yuan Chonghuan? ”
"Report ......
Inspector Yuan led the army to support Wang Chengyin, Zu Dashou turned defeat into victory, and led troops to support Inspector Yuan......"
"Nima! If you report it, you don't report it! ”
Wang Li was so angry that he snatched the gunner's telescope and looked around.
It's a pity that I can't see anything except the smoke and dust billowing in the distance!
Alas!
No way!
The border army cannot enter the city!
The Beijing camp is guarding the city again, and it cannot be left without permission!
If you want to know the battle situation outside the city, you can only go out by Jinyi Wei!
These guys are usually very good at eavesdropping on spies!
Let them find out the battlefield intelligence, and all of them will be waste!
It's all useless news!
Wang Li is most concerned about "how the casualties on both sides" are still unknown!
"Report ......
Inspector Yuan pursued Jiannu to the Grand Canal, and Jiannu fled in panic, stepped on the river ice, and fell into the water and suffered countless casualties! ”
"Good! Good! ”
Wang Li applauded repeatedly, and laughed: "This is the correct way to report the news!"
Remember, don't use "north, south, west!"
You see, when he said "Grand Canal", I immediately knew the direction and the situation of the battle!
What's your name? Any current position? ”
"Back to the factory, his subordinate is named Feng Guigui, and he is now from the seventh grade of Xiaoqi!"
"Very good! The factory promotes you to be a hundred households, and you will be fully responsible for the future battlefield intelligence spying! ”
"Thank you!"
"Go, go!"
Waving his hand, Wang Li raised the telescope again.
Unfortunately, there is still nothing.
Jinyiwei reported battlefield information one after another, and Wang Li's mood was like a roller coaster.
What? Yuan Chonghuan was shot as a hedgehog?
My goodness!
Can you still survive being shot as a hedgehog?
Could it be that history has really changed?
What? The heavy armor worn by Yuan Chonghuan didn't hurt his skin?
Are you sure?
Didn't it hurt the skin?
There are no anti-inflammatory drugs in this era!
In case of tetanus, the gods will not be saved!
What? After five or six hours of fighting, it took more than 1,000 enemies to be killed?
I'll go!
This Yuan Chonghuan, in vain I am so optimistic about you!
Only more than 1,000 enemies were killed, which is too disappointing!
Look at Bai Qi next door, he is a "million-level" killing god!
What? Mangui in the north of the city was injured by a cannon?
Was it a cannon set off by one's own people?
Was it a mistake?
I'll go!
Let you blow up your head and wear a red tassel crown, and you didn't let you hide from Mangui to open fire!
Which heartless guy set off the cannon?
Why is it so accurate?
Tie me up right away, punish him for the nine clans!
What?
There are too many gunners in the city, I don't know who put them?
Depend on! Lao Tzu is the commander of the West Factory, specializing in investigating cases!
If Zhu Youzhen asks, can I reply like this?
Alas! Troublesome!
Scolding, Wang Li threw away the binoculars and went straight to the north of the city.
……
North of the city, Desheng Gate.
The Eight Banners attacking the city have retreated, but the smoke has not dissipated.
In the camp tent by the city wall, more than 500 wounded Ming soldiers were screaming in the cold wind.
Man Gui in the tent was injured in more than ten places, covered in blood!
Judging by the rubble and iron taken out of the wound, it was indeed injured by a cannon pellet!
If he hadn't worn heavy armor, he would have died a long time ago!
The cold wind blew, and Wang Li couldn't help but shiver.
Tonight, it must be cold!
The defenders of the city are so thinly clothed!
Will those who are injured freeze to death?
It's a pity that they are all border troops, and they can't enter the city as usual!
Alas!
At the very least, the wounded must be allowed to rest in the city!
Otherwise, if you anger the guards of the city and cause a mutiny or something, won't Lao Tzu burp?
Thinking of this, Wang Li went straight to the Qianqing Palace.
