"Is this about to start a general attack?"
Dorgon had a playful smile on his face, and Duoduo next to him said, "What should we do? Do we go according to plan?"
Dorgon thought for a while and said: "The slaves of the Han Army Banner cannot last long, and the same goes for the Mongols. The most they can do is attack Liu Yan's frontal phalanx and cause some casualties to Liu Yan's tribe. The outcome will be the same, they will be defeated!"
"When the Mongols are defeated, it will be your turn to lead the attack. Huang Taiji is going to use the lives of us, the Mongolian tribes, and the Han army flag slaves to consume Liu Yan's troops to the greatest extent!"
Duduo snorted coldly and said, "How can we do what he wants!"
Dorgon said: "Let's start taking action. Send people to contact all Mongolian banners immediately. Now that the matter has come to this, there can be no more hesitation."
"good!"
Duduo then left on horseback with a group of elites from Bagala camp, while Dorgon stared ahead, his eyes flickering, not knowing what he was thinking, as if there was a fierce struggle in his heart.
At the same time, after receiving orders from Huang Taiji, the banners of the Han army began to advance. Geng Zhongming, Ma Guangyuan, Kong Youde, Shang Kexi, Shi Tingzhu, Zu Zerun and others led their troops to rush towards the New Army artillery camp in front. People's hearts were full of anxiety, and so were the soldiers of all banners of the Han army. It looked like a raging charge, but in fact everyone was just bluffing.
Qian Qian looked at the banners and horses of the Han army rushing forward, and immediately ordered the Fo Lang cannon general to retreat, and then ordered all the Tiger cannons to fire in volley.
"put!"
boom!
One hundred and dozens of Hu Zun cannons fired fierce shotguns, instantly clearing a batch of enemy troops in front of the formation.
At this time, the banners and horses of the Han army were only more than 300 steps away from the New Army artillery camp. At such a close distance, the damage caused by the Tiger Cannon was terrifying. At least 2,000 people were mowed down. In front of the New Army artillery camp, Suddenly a large area became vacant.
Kong Youde looked ferocious and shouted loudly: "Charge forward! Your Majesty's master is behind you. We have no way to retreat. The whole army will die with me!"
When this voice was shouted out, all the soldiers under the red flag of the Han army were weakened, and the morale of the army was instantly shaken.
Dead country? Whose country will die! Who goes to the country of death!
The Qing Dynasty was a country of the Manchus and the Mongolian bannermen, not the Han people!
Soon this emotion spread, and all banners and horses of the Han army began to waver. Except for the gunmen who had sufficient supplies of money and food, they still moved forward resolutely, while the melee soldiers behind them slowed down.
"Asshole! Rush up!"
Kong Youde roared angrily, and the guards around him drove the soldiers on the left and right to rush forward, but with little effect.
Suddenly, huge roars came from the front. Kong Youde looked in surprise and saw that the New Army artillery battalion had quickly retreated to the area of the Chinese Army, while the New Army's middle camp and front camp had already moved forward. More than 20,000 new soldiers The musketeers began firing volleys.
The more than 20,000 gunners in the two battalions were still divided into three rows, with seven or eight thousand men in each row. The power of the volley was unforgettable for all bannermen of the Han army.
In Kong Youde's horrified eyes, the soldiers and horses of each banner of the Han army fell almost one by one. Although the fire gunmen of the Wuzhen Chaoha camp of each banner also roared and fired back, the six banners of the Han army totaled 30,000 fire guns. The Han army has an advantage in terms of military strength, but each banner of the Han army fights independently, unlike the new army's middle camp and front camp.
Uniform firepower is incomparable.
Moreover, there was no rhythm in the firepower fired by the Han army's flag gunners. Except for the first two rounds, which were slightly neat, the subsequent shots instantly became messy. The Han army's flag gunners almost fought in their own way. The orders given by the superior officers of each department have become decorations. Everyone is busy filling in their weapons, and then shooting out on their own, not caring about rhythm, volleys and the like.
In this way, although the number of gunmen in each banner of the Han army was almost 10,000 more than that of the new army's middle camp and front camp, the firepower of the two sides was vastly different. The firepower of the new army's bird gunners was like the Bayi gunmen of later generations, while the firepower of the Han army's flag gunners was like a dozen Japanese slaves holding 38 big caps. Although there were many people, they were severely suppressed. live.
"put!"
"The middle row retreats, reloads, the back row steps forward, raises the gun, and fires!"
"The rear row retreats, reloads, the front row steps forward, raises the blunderbuss, and releases!"
At this time, the former battalion staff general Chen Xun and the middle camp staff general Shen Tuo were both supervising the battle in their respective formations, but neither of them was impatient and just looked at the soldiers under their command calmly.
Now, each battalion of the New Army has experienced many battles and has been completely tempered into a perfect "killing machine." Each battalion, each department, and each general headquarters can, in accordance with the military's drills and military regulations, and under the command of generals at all levels, It can maximize its firepower and combat power on its own. Such an efficient combat power mechanism is incomparable to those armies of the Qing army that only rely on their bravery and brutality!
In the Zhenghong Banner Army of the Han Army, Kong Youde was horrified to see the Zhenglan Banner's battle flag of Gushan'e Zhenzu Zerun falling down. On the Zhenglan Banner's side, a large number of
The soldiers and horses had begun to rout. Zu Zerun led hundreds of armored soldiers and rushed forward in an attempt to save the defeat. However, they were killed on the spot by the fierce firepower of the new army. The charge of hundreds of armored soldiers only lasted more than thirty steps in front of the new army's formation. , and they all fell into a pool of blood.
Immediately afterwards, the battle flag of the Han Army's Zhengbai Banner also fell. The soldiers and horses of the Han Army's Zhengbai Banner were the first to be defeated. After Shi Tingzhu was killed by a cannonball, several of his generals were trapped in the rout. , fled in embarrassment to the rear, and were immediately pulled off their horses by numerous defeated soldiers. The surrounding guards and the defeated soldiers started fighting among themselves, and all of Shi Tingzhu's subordinates died in the chaos.
Immediately afterwards, Kong Youde discovered that the two yellow flags of the Han army began to retreat backwards, leaving only his red flag and the gratifying blue flag still attacking on the battlefield.
"These two bastards!"
Kong Youde looked at the retreating Han army with two yellow flags and said angrily: "If you dare to retreat without His Majesty's order, I want to see how the Mongolian cavalry behind you deal with you! Those..."
Immediately afterwards, Kong Youde rode on his war horse. He looked to the south from a high height, but he couldn't see the banners of the Mongolian banners. Behind the banners of the Han army, they were already out of touch with the main force of the Qing army!
At this moment, Kong Youde only felt that half of his three souls and six souls had flown away, and the pig tail braids on the back of his head were standing up on their own.
"Withdraw troops!"
Kong Youde gritted his teeth at this time and roared loudly. The Han army's red flag soldiers seemed to hear the sound of nature and withdrew in the blink of an eye.
Shang Kexi almost immediately ordered a retreat, and the Han troops with blue flags also turned around and fled.
At this time, Liu Yan and Huang Taiji both held up their telescopes and saw this scene.
At the scene, both of them were stunned.
Liu Yan did not expect that this war, which was related to the national destiny of the Ming and Qing dynasties, would turn out to be one-sided as soon as it started. It seems that the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were not as incompetent as they were in the late Qing Dynasty, right?
Huang Taiji was furious. The battle he had carefully arranged turned out to be such a situation. The Han army's 100,000 troops under each banner, even 100,000 pigs, could not be defeated in such a short period of time!
"Password to my decree: Capture all Gushan Ezhen from all banners of the Han army and behead them in front of the army formation to show them to the public!"
Huang Taiji understood that the defeat of this battle was certain. What he could do now was to kill Liu Yan's troops as much as possible, and then at the right time, preserve his strength and retreat as soon as possible.
"Report!"
As soon as the sent out Baya soldiers rushed out on horseback, a group of scouts rode towards the center of the army with frightened expressions.
"explain!"
Huang Taiji was panting violently at this time, his face turned unnaturally red, and he held the reins tightly with both hands, for fear that he would not be able to hold on and fall off the horse.
"Your Majesty, Prince Rui and Prince Yu led the two white flags to break away from the battlefield and quickly retreat to the northwest. The Mongolian banners and the Mongolian troops in the outer vassals also retreated to the northwest!"
"In addition, Prince Li and Anping Beile also led the two red flags to leave the battlefield and hesitated in the northwest direction of the battlefield!"
"Asshole! Rebellious!"
Huang Taiji roared immediately after hearing this, and then his nose began to bleed uncontrollably. His throat became sweet, and he coughed violently. He lay on the horse in agony.
"His Majesty!"
The surrounding two yellow flag generals rushed over one after another, and the Qing army suddenly became a mess.
Huangtaiji quilt
The crowd helped him get off the horse, and then he panted and held up his body to sit up, saying: "Send someone immediately and order Prince Su, Rao Yubeile, and Prince Zheng to withdraw their troops and lead the two blue banners of Manchuria. Come and join me!"
"Order the two yellow flag troops in Manchuria to retreat five miles and prepare to withdraw!"
"嗻!"
At this time, there was a pessimistic mood among the two yellow flags of the Qing army. Everyone could not believe that the Qing cavalry, which had always been invincible, lost this national war so easily. The army of more than 300,000 people instantly It just fell apart and everything seemed like a dream.
In less than half an hour, Huang Taiji forced himself to sit on a carriage and led the two yellow flags of Manchuria to withdraw. Thanks to the defeat of the banners of the Han army in front, tens of thousands of defeated troops temporarily blocked the attack of Liu Yan's battalions, allowing Huang Taiji to withdraw from the battlefield smoothly.
Soon, Hauge, Abatai and Jilhalang led the two blue banners of Manchuria to come together. When the three saw Huang Taiji, who was getting worse, in the Chinese army, they learned that Dorgon and Duduo had united the Mongolian forces. After the news that the banners and other ministries suddenly withdrew, and that even Daishan and Du Du led their troops to sit on the sidelines, the shock in the hearts of the three of them could not be greater.
At this time, Haug was yelling angrily and constantly cursing Dorgon and Duoduo. Abatai and Jierhalang remained silent, their faces uncertain. Regarding the current situation, the two of them were confused. I don’t know how to decide.
Although Huang Taiji's condition worsened at this time, his eyes were fixed on Jierhalang and Abatai, and his right hand was calmly raised slightly, as if waiting for something.
After a while, Abate
He said: "Your Majesty, for this plan, we must immediately withdraw from the pass and rush back to Shengjing before the two thieves Dorgon and Duoduo. Otherwise, the future of our Qing Dynasty will be worrying!"
Jierhalang also said: "Now the army is torn apart, and the culprits are the two thieves Duduo and Dorgon. Your Majesty should preserve the strength of the two yellow flags and the two blue flags and withdraw from the pass immediately. The Han people have a saying: To fight against the outside world, you must first settle the inside. . If your Majesty wants to continue to compete with the Ming Dynasty, you must first eradicate the two thieves Dorgon and Duduo!"
Huang Taiji nodded slightly, slowly put his right hand on his nose, wiped the blood, and then said to Hauge, who was breathing heavily with anger: "Have you heard what Prince Zheng and Rao Yubeile said? Do it immediately!”
Although Hauge was fierce and fierce, he was not an idiot. At this time, he understood that the top priority was to withdraw from the pass immediately, so he turned around to arrange the withdrawal. He passed by an injured war horse. He had nowhere to vent his anger, and he suddenly drew his sword and slashed. On the neck of the war horse, the horse's head was chopped off with a knife!
Manchuria's two yellow flags and two blue flags soon began to retreat to the northwest. Tens of thousands of cavalry were so powerful and so fast that the battalions of the New Army had not yet cleared the battlefield of the Han army's defeated troops.
Inside the New Army's Central Army, Liu Yan held up a telescope to observe the dynamics of the battlefield, but his face was filled with anger.
what is this? Not long after the battle started, all the flags of the Qing army dispersed. Where was the Qing army that was brave and good at fighting in the past? Are they all fucking dead?
Liu Yan originally planned to severely damage the main force of the Qing army in this battle, but as soon as the battle started, the battalions of the New Army defeated the Han banners. The main forces of the Manchu and Mongolian banners suffered no casualties at all, and the Qing banners retreated separately, leaving
Liu Yan's strategic goal was instantly defeated.
"Instruct the middle camp and front camp to clear the obstacles ahead as quickly as possible at all costs. All battalions will be deployed on the battlefield. Each battalion will not be closed at night to immediately explore the northwest direction!"
