Chapter 183: The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind
Huang Taiji, since he was a teenager, he has been hunting and fighting with his father and brother, and he is skilled in riding and shooting;
In the fortieth year of Wanli (1612 AD), Huang Taiji, who was only twenty years old, went with his father to conquer the Jurchen Ula Department in Haixi and the six cities of Lianke;
At this time, Huang Taiji, six out of thirty, was burly, and he was more sophisticated in riding and shooting;
Maybe it's really watching "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that goes crazy, and in the face of Cao Wenzhao's heads-up battle, Huang Taiji feels very interesting!
Of course, he's not stupid!
On the surface, he agreed to fight alone, but secretly in the name of heads-up, he wanted to trick Cao Wenzhao outside the city, and then rushed up to capture him!
The soldiers of the Eight Banners shouted in Chinese, in fact, they were afraid that Cao Wenzhao would regret it, and they were afraid that he would not dare to fight!
It should be said that he was afraid that Cao Wenzhao would not dare to go out of the city because of timidity!
From beginning to end, Huang Taiji never thought of going into battle alone with others!
That's self-surrendering, risking your life!
It's not worth it!
Cao Wenzhao in Datong City never thought of really going head-to-head with Huang Taiji!
His letter of appointment is just to lure Huang Taiji back to Datong!
Unexpectedly, Huang Taiji really led his troops back!
He also asked the soldiers to shout outside the city, naming and asking for a heads-up!
In this way, Cao Wenzhao is a little difficult to ride a tiger!
He has been in the army for more than 20 years, from Liaodong to Shanxi, he has followed and fought with everyone!
If you really want to fight with Huang Taiji, he is not afraid!
However, when the two armies are in battle, you are dead or alive, just press it on with one bone and brain, what kind of heads-up?
Isn't this a joke?
How can there be such a war?
However, the shouts of the Eight Banners outside the city were really harsh!
If you don't fight, where will you put your face?
How will you lead the army in the future?
Therefore, write a letter to Huang Taiji - on the surface, he agreed to go head-on, but in fact, he put forward harsh conditions, so that he would retreat!
In this way, at least in terms of momentum, they have the upper hand!
After all, not only did I agree to heads-up, but I also made an appointment on a time and place!
If the two failed to fight alone, it was Huang Taiji who didn't dare to come!
Cao Wenzhao was still secretly happy, and the Eight Banners soldiers slowly retreated!
As the letter says, retreat to five miles away!
This posture is a little wrong!
Could it be that the grandson really wants to go it alone?
No, he didn't dare!
At least for now, he hasn't left the camp alone!
The telescope in Cao Wenzhao's hand was raised and lowered, raised again, and put down again!
This one......
If, in case, the grandson's brain is really rusty, and he really dares to go out of the camp to fight alone, he is embarrassed not to fight?
Cut!
Isn't it just an emperor Taiji!
Afraid he won't make it?
Between the two armies, two and a half miles away, I only need a few breaths to capture him alive!
By the time the Eight Banners caught up, I would have already retreated to the city!
No, he's not that stupid!
He didn't dare to come!
But what if he really dared to come?
This is indeed a great opportunity!
When I was a mile from the city, I immediately struck a light horseman!
At this time, the grandson was also a mile away from his camp!
As long as he has a bad eye, as long as I am fast enough, I should be able to control him!
Still not right!
I heard that the Jurchens, like the Mongols, were good at both riding and archery, and wrestling!
Riding and shooting, hehe!
Full shot iron armor, don't be afraid!
Since he can wrestle, let's play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses and not fight with him in close combat!
When you get closer, shoot him first!
If he didn't shoot, as soon as the two of them looked at each other, they slashed him under the horse with a knife!
Of course, if you can't kill him, then hold him down!
When the light cavalry arrives, they can drag him back to the city!
Well, not a big problem!
That's it!
By the way, when the two are close, they have to be like Guan Yu in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", raise the big knife and shout!
"I am Shanxi Cao Wenzhao! Who dares to fight me to the death! ”
No, this seems to be Zhang Fei's words, right?
Hey, it's three o'clock in the afternoon......
"Mr. Cao, look!"
The adjutant general pointed in the direction of the enemy camp, and Cao Wenzhao hurriedly raised his binoculars!
I'll go!
That grandson is really not afraid of death!
Balls! Admire!
Opportunity!
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Cao Wenzhao's face was flushed with excitement, and he straightened up his big knife: "Look at my gestures, ready to go out of the city at any time!" ”
The sound fell, and he strode towards the city staircase!
Seeing this, several staff officers and adjutant generals hurriedly caught up and persuaded each other.
"Mr. Cao, be careful of deception!"
"Mr. Cao, heads-up is the plot of the novel, don't take it seriously!"
"That is, the victory or loss of the two armies depends on the morale, formation, equipment and number of soldiers of both sides, so why do you need to take risks alone?"
"Humph! I'm not in danger, I'm going to capture that grandson alive!" You don't have to say any more, look at my gestures! ”
The generals still want to persuade that Cao Wenzhao has already flown on the horse!
The city gate slowly opened, Cao Wenzhao became more and more excited, and galloped out on horseback!
Man Gui at the head of the city, who saw all this with his own eyes, was stunned by thunder!
Judging from the binoculars, in the camp of the Eight Banners, there was indeed a horse coming on horseback!
It's a pity that the distance is too far!
Even if you look at the telescope, you can't see each other's appearance clearly!
Huang Taiji's clothes and appearance, all the soldiers have never seen it!
Whether the person who came is Huang Taiji or not, no one is sure!
I'll go!
There is fraud in the Eight Banners Barracks!
At least more than 200 riders, rushing towards Cao Wenzhao like a lightning speed!
Without waiting for Cao Wenzhao to send a gesture signal, the Ming army's iron cavalry, which had been prepared a long time ago, was out of the city as soon as possible!
I'll go!
On the side of the Eight Banners, more than 1,000 horsemen rushed out of the camp!
The Ming army did not show weakness here, or did not dare to let Cao Wenzhao go into danger alone, and followed by more than 1,000 horsemen!
In the array, the two people who walked in the opposite direction did not flinch!
In the telescope, I only saw that the two horsemen had just approached, and Cao Wenzhao's big knife took advantage of the situation to slash out!
Then, the Eight Banners on horseback were gone!
Cao Wenzhao bent down and picked up something!
It should be, it's the enemy's head!
It's just that Cao Wenzhao didn't go back to the city!
Instead, continue to shoot the horse and charge!
Rush to the front of the Eight Banners!
The Ming army rider behind him, his heart was in his throat!
At this moment, you can only rush desperately!
That Cao Wenzhao is really too reckless!
Take risks alone, regardless of the overall situation!
Man Gui really can't stand it!
was about to give the order to withdraw the troops, but a soldier came to report: the yellow sand in the southeast is all over the sky, covering the clouds and the sun!
And so it was!
Such a big battle must be cavalry!
In the binoculars, judging by the banner, it was the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty!
Riding Camp!
That's right, it's the Riding Camp!
Mountains and seas, thousands of horses galloping!
It's too far away to see the quantity!
But for sure, they are charging towards the flank of the Eight Banners!
Man Gui had never commanded the cavalry, but he knew that at this time, the cavalry in the direction of Datong must not retreat!
Moreover, we will continue to increase our troops!
Truly!
Without waiting for Man Gui's order, the Guanning Iron Cavalry, who was leaning on the side of the city wall, took advantage of the situation and launched a charge!
"Okay, you Cao Wenzhao! Sure enough, insidious and cunning! ”
Huang Taiji was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but he kept his senses: "Which way is the Ming army killed from the southeast?" How much? ”
"Uh...... The other party killed without warning, and he didn't have time to find out the number! However, the cavalry deployed by the Ming army on this line is likely to be the Xiao Cavalry Battalion! ”
"No, it's not a cavalry camp!"
Huang Taiji shook his head, his eyes were like torches: "The Xiao Cavalry Battalion will never dare to charge at my camp!"
Azig, Duoduo, and Zilharang, you and others each lead two thousand horsemen to meet the battle, and find out the truth and truth! ”
"Huh!"
"Daishan, Dolgon, Abatai, you and others meet Cao Wenzhao according to the original plan, and you must not let him return to Datong!"
"Huh!"
"Intensifying spying! The enemy soldiers are real and real, and they can report at any time!
The generals will sit in the camp with me, and do not move lightly!
Otherwise, you will not be spared! ”
"Huh!"
The generals came out with orders, busy but not chaotic!
Huang Taiji seems to be calm, but in fact, his clothes are wet with sweat!
What he was afraid of was not Cao Wenzhao!
Rather, another iron cavalry from the southeast!
The two armies have already fought each other, but they don't know where the other side is coming from and how many they are, how can they not be afraid?
However, although the heart is afraid, the camp cannot be moved!
If you're not careful, you'll be defeated!
At this moment, the cavalry of the Ming army killed from the southeast is indeed a cavalry battalion!
However, it is completely different from the last time the cavalry battalion!
After a month of intensive training, this riding battalion has been reborn!
Although there are only 6,000 horsemen, in the face of the Eight Banners soldiers who are several times their own, they all have no hesitation, and their morale is like a rainbow!
Among them, it is not only Sun Chuanting's training method, but also inseparable from Wang Li's "instigation"!
It was indeed Wang Li's instigation!
In the first battle last month, the news of the annihilation of the 4,000 cavalry battalion, as well as the news of Cao Wenzhao's return to Datong, reached Sichuan at the same time!
Wang Li faintly felt that something was wrong, but he felt that this was a great opportunity to hit Houjin hard!
If the ancestor of Liaodong takes the opportunity to attack Shenyang, Huang Taiji will definitely be in a dilemma!
Although it is to imitate "encircling Wei to save Zhao", it is also a nirvana!
Huang Taiji had to return to his teacher!
If you dare not go back, your hometown will be ended!
Hundreds of miles of land, hundreds of large and small cities, even if they are not occupied by the Ming army, they will be looted!
However, if Huang Taiji returns to Shenyang, it is easy to be ambushed halfway!
At the same time, Cao Wenzhao of Datong and Sun Chuanting of Xuanfu will also follow and disturb!
Traveling to the vicinity of Shenyang, the Eight Banners will face the encirclement of the three-way iron cavalry!
Even if you don't die, you will lose half your life!
In Wang Li's opinion, this is really a great opportunity!
It's a pity that he has no right to mobilize Zu Dashou and Sun Chuanting!
It can only be instigated!
What I didn't expect was ......
Zu Dashou was originally cautious, but because of the "unauthorized retreat" a few years ago, he became more and more cautious!
His nephew, Wu Sangui, hates Wang Li even more!
Under repeated persuasion, Zu Dashou did not move!
The instigation of Guan Ningjun did not succeed!
On the Shanxi side, the instigation of Sun Chuanting was successful!
He lost his first battle, and he realized that it was not good!
The yin and yang weird ministers in the court will definitely take the opportunity to impeach!
We have to find a way to make up for it!
is thinking hard about the way to make up for the fault, Wang Li's urgent letter was delivered in time!
In the letter, Wang Li said well!
If you want to make up for it, you can only repel Huang Taiji, relieve the siege of Datong, and rescue Cao Wenzhao!
Sun Chuanting thought so!
However, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry battalion is really disappointing!
But on the contrary, along with Wang Li's letter, there were 300,000 silver tickets!
With this huge amount of money, Sun Chuanting never thought of deducting or hiding it privately!
Stimulated by the silver, the Xiao Riding Camp was immediately reborn!
Military discipline is strict, training hard!
When I heard that I was going to fight against the Eight Banners, I didn't have the slightest fear, and they all screamed with excitement!
Huang Taiji can't grab things, there is no hope of breaking the city, the grain and grass will be exhausted, and he has long had the intention of retreating!
This Xiao cavalry battalion has been active on the front line of the Sanggan River, and Huang Taiji has known it for a long time!
It's just that the combat effectiveness of this cavalry is so poor that Huang Taiji has never regarded it as a threat!
This morning, the Eight Banners retreated in a big way, going and returning, and Sun Chuanting obviously noticed the abnormality!
The Eight Banners were arrayed outside the city, but they retreated five miles, which was even more strange!
After repeated troop transfers, Sun Chuanting didn't know the reason, but he knew that there was an opportunity to take advantage of!
So, the riding camp can't wait!
Ordinary soldiers in this era rarely have the concept of "loyalty to the monarch and patriotism"!
If you say that you are fighting for the court or the emperor, no one will fight hard!
However, if there is silver in vain, it is different!
Stimulated by high rewards and bereavement benefits, the combat effectiveness of the Xiaocai Battalion skyrocketed!
The 6,000 cavalry of Azig, Dordor and Zilharan were scattered as soon as they engaged!
The battle-hardened Eight Banners have never seen such a crazy style of play!
The Xiao Cavalry Battalion is an iron cavalry!
But for the sake of ease of movement, many soldiers did not wear iron armor!
As long as one of the Eight Banners fell off his horse, three or four people immediately surrounded him like hungry wolves!
Before anyone is dead, their ears are cut off!
The Ming army on the war horse is even more terrifying!
After seeing the target, he threw away the broadsword and firebolt and jumped high from his horse!
Then, he grabbed the neck of the Eight Banners and pulled him off the horse!
At this time, some people swarmed around him, cutting and chopping, and snatching ears!
Flesh and blood flying, screaming and screaming!
This kind of play, the Eight Banners is really unheard of!
They touched their ears and trembled!
Even Azig, Dord, and Zilharan were scared down their spines!
Looking up, there are more Ming troops rushing over!
A large piece of black pressing!
It's all right-handed broadsword firearms, left-handed shortswords!
This posture is clearly to cut off the ears!
I'm afraid, I'm afraid!
You don't want to die, I'm going to keep my ears!"
Anyway, we're looking for the truth!
There's no need to fight with a madman!
Remove! Evacuate!
