Chapter 137: A Great Victory
Just when Ye Qiu was chasing and killing Amin, the cavalry of the Ming army already felt that they couldn't hold on.
On the Chinese side, the infantry formation also began to fragment.
Lu Zhenggang wiped the blood on his face, killed a Jurchen cavalryman with a knife, and glanced at the depths of the crowd in front of him.
"I don't know if adults can succeed?no, adults are so strong in martial arts, they will definitely succeed......"
While!
Dai Zhitai blocked a spear for him and shouted: "Don't be distracted, hold on, as long as the adults kill the female Allah, we will win this battle!"
"I know. Lu Zhenggang came back to his senses.
Both of them had multiple wounds on their bodies, and their arms were also sore, but they were supported by willpower and trust in Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu did not disappoint the two, and a clear voice suppressed all kinds of noises on the battlefield, "The Jurchen Blue Flag Lord Amin has been killed by me, the Jurchens have been defeated, everyone fights bravely to kill the enemy!"
Then he said it several times in Jurchen language.
The Jurchen warriors followed the sound and saw a Ming general riding on a horse (snatched), a spear held high in one hand, and a bloody head on the blade of the spear, wandering around the battlefield.
And the flag of coach Amin is nowhere to be found.
There were also Jurchen soldiers who attacked him desperately, but they were all killed by the sword in his right hand.
The morale of the Jurchen army began to collapse rapidly, first the Mongols, who had already suffered heavy losses, and if it weren't for the Jurchen pressure, they would have wanted to leave the battlefield a long time ago; then the Han army banner, these armies composed of surrendered Ming people, morale has always been a problem; finally the Jurchen soldiers could not support it, their army formation was scattered by the rout, and the cavalry also fell into the rout crowd, unable to leave quickly.
The Ming army began a full-scale counterattack.
Lu Zhenggang and Dai Zhitai were overjoyed and led the cavalry who were almost defeated by the Jurchens to fight back.
Ye Qiu returned to the Chinese army and said to the herald: "Give the order with the drum, immediately beat the drum, order Lu Zhenggang and Dai Zhitai to retreat, reorganize the formation, and launch a strong attack, the strength of the Jurchen cavalry is still there, don't fight indiscriminately." ”
"Order the left and right flank infantry to outflank the middle, attack from the flanks of the Jurchen cavalry, leave the Mongols alone, and take advantage of the opportunity for the Jurchen cavalry to be wrapped up by the defeated Han army banner infantry and unable to escape quickly......"
"The Chinese army followed me, and the whole army assaulted. ”
"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......"
"Kill...... Kill ......"
For a while, the war drums roared, the sound of killing was everywhere, the war horses were galloping, the swords and spears were raised at the same time, and the arrows were flying, and the situation began to completely fall towards the Ming army.
Huang Taiji and several other Belle stationed on the hill of the horse.
Huang Taiji's face was extremely gloomy, as if he could drip water, and Dai Shan beside him shook his head, "Amin is finished, the blue flag is finished." ”
"I don't care about Amin, if he dies, he will die, but the angry thing is that he buried the entire 8,000 Jurchen soldiers with the blue flag, that is the 8,000 tribesmen!" Huang Taiji was heartbroken.
It's no wonder that he is like this, the Jurchen population is already small, only a few hundred thousand, even if you add the Han military flag and Han people's clothing, it is only more than one million, and 8,000 dead in a war is enough to break the muscles and bones.
In his eyes, the Jurchen cavalry with the blue flag, which had lost its speed, was already a dead man, as for the Han and Mongols...... It's just cannon fodder.
"How are our people assembled?" Huang Taiji felt a little regretful in his heart, he knew that this Ning Yuanming army would become so powerful after changing generals, so he should gather all the troops and destroy them in one battle.
Now after this battle, the morale of the Ming army has been greatly boosted, especially this Ning Yuan army, I am afraid that it will become my Jurchen enemy in the future!
"This ...... Only less than 1,000 people returned to Liangxiang County, and the rest ......"
The Jurchens were poor and afraid, and this time they entered the rich territory of the Ming Dynasty, and immediately robbed them frantically, with population, gold, silver, jewelry, silk and clothing...... It's all they need.
Once the army is dispersed, it is not so easy to gather again.
Moreover, at the beginning, Dai Shan and the others already had the intention of watching Amin's jokes, and they did not particularly strictly order the army to turn around.
However, they didn't expect Amin to lose so badly, they thought that they would lose some strength at most, and the victory still belonged to the Jurchens.
Now it's too late for them to regret it, there are not enough troops to rescue the Jurchens with the blue flag, and the blue flag is over.
Of course, if the Jurchens really gathered all their troops to deal with Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu would naturally not be stupid, but he would not stay outside the city to die for a little face, and would definitely find an excuse to enter the city.
The reorganized Ming cavalry charged the Jurchens, and the Jurchen cavalry and Han infantry were mixed and could not accelerate at all. It is even more impossible to get out of the battlefield.
The brave Jurchens also began to panic, and they slashed the Han infantry who stood in their way, but there were too many people to kill. There were even resentful Han infantry who began to resist and threw the Jurchen cavalry off their horses and killed them.
Huang Taiji looked at the battlefield in front of him, raised his horsewhip, and said sadly: "In this battle, the blue flag inlaid in my Jurchen Eight Banners will completely disappear. This bloody battle will be a major battle with the largest casualties in the past ten years since the Jurchen army was raised. Ye Qiu, you remember this general of the Ming Kingdom, this person will be the biggest opponent of my Jurchens in the future!"
"Let's go, go back to Liangxiang County to gather the army!"
"Are we going to kill it back?"
"No, let's go home. ”
Huang Taiji's words were full of unwillingness.
This breakthrough into the Ming Dynasty was a perfect battle, which not only alleviated the crisis within the Jurchens, but also grabbed enough population and wealth, and also dealt a blow to the prestige of the Ming court and the morale of the Ming army......
But all of this was offset by this defeat, or a big discount.
The Jurchens were completely annihilated by a whole banner!
How can this "Jurchen is not satisfied with 10,000 people, and it is invincible" continue to blow?!
In the future, when the Ming army encounters the Jurchen army again, will it be like before, and there will be a situation where it will collapse at the touch of a button?
......
Cao Huachun ran in the palace regardless of his image, his hat was crooked, his shoes fell off, and the little eunuchs and palace maids watched this scene in surprise along the way.
In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Chongzhen was walking around anxiously, feeling irritable.
To be honest, he has already begun to blame Ye Qiulai in his heart at the moment, if he sees a good thing, how good will he receive?
If this battle is defeated, the heroic image erected before will be in vain, and the morale of the Ming army will inevitably drop to the bottom.
Alas, I am so young and frizzy, what a disappointment for me!
At this time, Cao Huachun's excited voice came from outside: "Great victory, great victory, emperor." ”
What the?
Chongzhen's anxious face suddenly changed greatly.
Victory?
That Ye Qiu won!?
He hurriedly turned around, and saw Cao Huachun rushing in in a hurry, "The emperor is blessed with all the heavens, and Ye Qiubu has completely annihilated the Jurchen blue flag!"
"What, total annihilation, is it true?" the reverent face instantly turned red.
