At dusk, in the dense forest.
Yibai fled southward in embarrassment, surrounded by Mongolian Tatar soldiers who were also fleeing for their lives. Everyone was like a lost dog, just hoping that he could run faster than his companions to avoid being caught up by the Ming army behind him.
"God of immortality! When did the great Mongol warrior become so miserable?"
At this time, Yibai was wailing in pain. He led an army of 12,000 to attack the Ming army's rear, but was defeated by Liu Yan's "second-rate" auxiliary soldiers. This was simply a nightmare!
Until this moment, Yibai had not realized that the garrison was also a first-class strong army and was not an auxiliary force at all.
At this time, in the mountains and forests, Zheng Yi and the three commanders each led a group of soldiers. They had all given up their military formations and were pursuing the enemy in the mountains and forests almost using flags or even teams as units.
"Fire!"
A flag commander roared angrily, and his gunners each opened fire. Several Tatar soldiers who were fleeing in front fell down at the sound, and then the soldiers of the second battalion who were caught up drew their swords and raised their heads.
"Captain, there are Tatars over there, should we chase them?"
"Nonsense, chase me and kill without mercy!"
Everyone chased after them, and not far away there were dozens of soldiers of the second battalion advancing together, chasing the enemy.
"Commander, look, there are a lot of Tatar soldiers in front of us. Should we stop and wait for the brothers behind?"
The flag commander glared angrily at the subordinate who was speaking, and yelled: "What are you waiting for? Those are not enemy soldiers, they are all first-level military merit. Wait until the brothers behind come up and take the credit!"
"But there are only about thirty of us, and there are hundreds of people in front of us?"
"Those are hundreds of pigs. They have no resistance at all. Kill them for me."
! "
While they were talking, everyone did not stop. They were chasing and firing. Two sword and shield men also threw a few thunderbolts, which immediately exploded the Mongolian troops in front. Several Tatar soldiers were thrown into pieces. They were all blown to pieces with blood and flesh flying everywhere. The remaining Tatar troops were splashed with blood and flesh, and their livers and gallbladders were broken. Even if the pursuers behind them were only one-tenth of their own, no one dared to stand up and stop them.
"ah!"
In the midst of the rout, the horseman Erde screamed in horror. He followed the Qing cavalry into the pass several times to attack the Ming Dynasty. He defeated Caogu under the city of Datong, captured Han people in various places in Liaodong, and showed off his power under the city of Beijing. He had always been It is majestic, and you can gain a lot every time you enter the customs. Returning to your home outside the customs can let your family members live a life of food and clothing, even if such days are purchased with the blood and tears of the people of the Ming Dynasty.
But since Liu Yan came out of Shandong, everything has changed. First, his two brothers, the Bagala warriors of Mongolia's Zhengbai Banner, died in Julu, and then one of his younger brothers died in Jinan Fucheng.
In the blink of an eye, during the Battle of Jinzhou, only himself and his two teenage nephews were left in Erde's family. When the emperor recruited a large army to fight with the Ming army in Huangtuling, his two nephews were also killed by the Ming army!
Now Erde is the last adult male in his family. If he dies in this mountain forest again, the women and children in the family will become other people's wives, concubines and playthings. This situation is unacceptable to Erde.
Therefore, while Erde shouted loudly, his steps were flying. Even his companions who were blocking the front were chopped to the ground by the sword in Erde's hand.
sudden
Suddenly, a black iron lump fell not far ahead. Erde's eyes suddenly widened, and a desperate whimper came out of his throat.
Immediately afterwards, the iron lump exploded, killing Erde and two other Tatar soldiers. The mutilated corpses fell around and were soon trampled to pieces by the Mongolian Tatar soldiers who fled through here.
Soon, the commander of the department, Zong Yuan, chased him with more than 40 people. Looking at the minced meat on the ground, he cursed loudly: "You prodigal! Try to use less thunder, the Tatar heads will be blown to pieces, How can it be regarded as military merit?"
After saying that, Zongyuan angrily kicked away half of the Tianling Gai next to him. The Tianling Gai with a small wisp of money rat tail belonged to Erde. In history, Erde, a powerful general who followed Nikan to fight south, was promoted to the rank of assistant leader of the Mongolian Zhengbai Banner due to his meritorious service, and was received by Emperor Shunzhi, could not have imagined that because of Liu Yan's existence, everything would change.
"Keep chasing!"
Zong Yuan roared and led his troops to continue chasing the defeated troops.
At the same time, on the defense line of the Great Wall ruins, Chen Xun also received the news from Zheng Yi's soldiers. Apart from being horrified, he also felt a sense of fear in his heart. Fortunately, the governor also sent the second battalion, otherwise it would be really bad this time. was successfully attacked by the Tatars.
"Tell Zheng Yi four words: Do your best to eradicate evil!"
Chen Xun was angry at this time. The dog Tatar actually played tricks on him, so don't blame himself for being the evil hand: "Order all ministries to refuse to take in prisoners, and judge merit by their heads!"
"yes!"
At this time, outside the defense line, Shi Tingzhu's troops had completely lost the ability to attack. They could only huddle in the woods a hundred steps away from the defense line, sending fire from time to time.
The musketeers attacked, and under the cover of the shield soldiers, they fired randomly at the soldiers of the front camp on the ruins of the Great Wall.
However, this method of fighting has no effect at all. Every time the fire gunners of the Han Army's Zhengbai Banner attack, they will be attacked by a large number of bird gunners. Each time, many corpses are dropped, and then they retreat a hundred steps away in embarrassment. .
"Why haven't you withdraw your troops yet?"
Shi Tingzhu looked at his subordinates who suffered heavy casualties, and then looked back at the Manzhou Zhengbai Banner army waiting in formation. He felt resentful in his heart. Did he deserve to die here just because he and his soldiers were Han soldiers and horses?
"Master, why don't you send someone to Prince Rui to beg for mercy?"
Shi Tingzhu nodded, and then sent Niu Lujiala to intercede, hoping to temporarily withdraw his troops.
But not long after, two Baya soldiers from Manchuria's Zhengbai Banner came on horseback. They found the Shiting Pillar hiding two hundred steps away from the Ming army's defense line, and angrily threw Xue Linlin's head on the ground. , one of them said: "Prince Rui has an order: All units of the Han army will fight to the death and will not retreat. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
Shi Tingzhu was completely dumbfounded. Looking at the heads on the ground, he timidly nodded and accepted the order, and then sent away the two ferocious Baya soldiers.
"what to do?"
Shi Tingzhu looked sad and couldn't understand why Dorgon did this. Could it be that he had offended Prince Rui and wanted to get rid of him with the help of the Ming army?
"how come?"
Shi Tingzhu thought that he had not offended Dorgon in any way. Dorgon led people into his home and ruined his beloved concubine, and he was still there to greet him with a smile. How could he possibly offend Dorgon after doing this? Gon?
"Master, let's
what to do? "
The surrounding subordinates asked questions one after another. Shi Tingzhu struggled for a while and then said with a ferocious expression: "Since Prince Rui has the order, let's continue to fight until we are all dead!"
Everyone was shocked.
At the ruins of the Great Wall, Chen Xun looked at the flag soldiers and horses of the Han army who started to attack frequently, and cursed angrily: "These traitors were mostly Liaodong soldiers and horses before. They were all greedy for life and afraid of death. Why did they fall for the Tatars?" After being a dog, she has become so difficult to deal with. Are all traitors born bitches?"
Then Chen Xun said: "Send orders to all the ministries to fight back immediately, rush forward and catch the duck!"
"Woo~woo!"
Soon, the Ming Army's horn sounded, and more than 10,000 soldiers from the front battalion of the New Army drove down from the ruins of the Great Wall, began to cross the trench in front of the defense line, and reorganized the military formation in the forest.
Shi Tingzhu was shocked when he saw this, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly sent troops to block the attack. He wanted to attack while the soldiers of the New Army's front camp were moving, and maybe he could repel the soldiers of the New Army who were not yet stable.
But reality hit Shi Tingzhu in the face again. The Han army flag soldiers who rushed forward, numbering at least a thousand men and horses, were repelled by some of the gunmen who were on guard at the Great Wall ruins.
The officers and soldiers of the new army's front camp came out in batches, and at least one-third of the troops were left on the city wall, which was enough to defeat the rushing Han army flag soldiers and horses.
Shi Tingzhu's face turned pale when he saw this. No matter whether he stayed here or led his troops to withdraw, it was a dead end. He couldn't help but went crazy and shouted: "The whole army rushes forward and is loyal to the Qing Dynasty!"
Many Han flag soldiers and horses around looked at Shi Tingzhu with strange eyes: It turns out that your Shi family is not a side general of the Ming Dynasty, but your Shi Tingzhu was originally
Is it still the defense of Ming Dynasty? Now that they have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, how can they still have the nerve to mention the word "loyalty"?
Soon, the remaining soldiers of the Han Army's Zhengbai Banner were pushed forward by Shi Tingzhu, but at this time, the soldiers of the front battalion had basically completed their reorganization, and under the leadership of Chen Xun and others, they pressed directly over.
"put!"
After the musketeers fired a volley at the same time, thousands of spearmen roared and charged. Soon, the two sides were fighting hand to hand. Nearly 20,000 people collided with each other, and the sound of killing was loud.
Under the protection of a large number of guards, Chen Xun kept moving forward and said differently: "Huh? These two Tatars are really brave, actually..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Xun saw the Han army flag soldiers and horses in front collapsed on the spot with a bang. The soldiers and horses in front were killed by the new army soldiers and turned upside down. The Han army soldiers and horses behind turned around and ran away. Thousands of enemy troops Like the ebbing tide of the sea, it rushed southward in the dense forest.
Shi Tingzhu was also trapped by the defeated soldiers and began to run for his life. While running, he cried loudly, as if he was crying for his fate.
"Haha! Chase, chase me!"
Chen Xun laughed and ordered the pursuit, and the front battalion units began to stride southward, harvesting the Han flag soldiers and horses on the battlefield.
A few miles away to the south, Dorgon looked into the distance with his brows furrowed. At this time, he could already see sporadically the defeated soldiers of the Han army who had fled back. They were immediately killed by arrows fired by the Manchurian Zhengbai Banner armored soldiers who were supervising the formation in front.
"Report!"
At this moment, a group of scouts galloped back on horseback, bringing news of the Ibai tribe's defeat.
"The soldiers and horses Liu Yanxin trained are actually so powerful!"
Dorgon was shocked. Originally, he had thought of using the Han army flag to contain the front camp of the New Army.
, when Yibai succeeds, he will send out Manzhou Zhengbai Banner elites to join the battle. Maybe he can rebuild the front camp of the new army, but he gave up this idea at this time. The situation is over now, and everything is to preserve strength.
"Withdraw troops!"
Dorgon gave the order and immediately withdrew southward with the Manzhou Zhengbai Banner troops.
When Shi Tingzhu fled here in embarrassment, he received the order to retreat. He suddenly smiled: The master still feels sorry for the slave!
"Retreat! The whole army retreats south!"
Shi Tingzhu shouted an order at the top of his lungs, and then fled southward with the crowd.
As the Qing army retreated, the battle at Huangsongyu finally came to an end.
At dusk, Chen Xun was sitting on the beacon tower, with a bonfire already rising in front of him. The three guerrilla generals Zhang Xun, Guo Mingxu, and Shen Donglai, as well as the commander of the second battalion Zheng Yi, were sitting next to them. Everyone counted the casualties and casualties of each unit. The number of beheadings was reported.
In this battle, the New Army's front battalion suffered 317 casualties, and the garrison's second battalion suffered 615 casualties. The two battalions suffered a total of 932 casualties, including 508 dead soldiers.
Each department beheaded 3,762 levels of Han Army Zhengbai Banner soldiers and horses, and beheaded 2,911 levels of Mongolian Zhengbai Banner soldiers and horses, for a total of 6,673 levels, including eight Mongolian Zhengbai Banner armored soldiers. One hundred and thirteen people, the Mongolian Zhengbai Banner Tatars have been severely damaged.
Moreover, many Tatars were killed by thunderbolts in this battle, and many Tatar soldiers had their heads smashed by bird cannons. In addition, the Tatar corpses were snatched away by their companions, and the Qing army suffered casualties at various times. There are definitely more people.
It is a pity that the Manchurian Zhengbai Banner led by Dorgon did not participate in the battle and escaped first
.
After discussion, Chen Xun and others decided to deploy the second battalion of soldiers and horses behind the defense line of the Great Wall ruins to prevent the Qing army from detouring from both sides again.
Then Chen Xun said loudly: "Report the victory to the governor immediately!"
