Chapter 330 Amin retreats
Shen Shijun met Li Li at the mansion and asked eagerly: "My lord, how are you?"
Li Li sat down in his seat, then looked at Shen Shijun and nodded silently: "King Liang agreed. After the Jin people are defeated, he will let us help defend Hanyang City."
Shen Shijun was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, this will be useful at a critical moment."
"But teacher..."
Li Jie hesitated: "When I came back earlier, I saw that the corpses piled up outside the city were about to become a hill. The Ming army was not afraid of the Jin people. They actually only sent more than 10,000 people out of the city to fight with the Jin people outside the city. , but the Jin people didn’t take any advantage at all.”
Shen Shijun stroked his beard: "The Ming Dynasty often said that you should not exaggerate others' ambitions to destroy your own prestige. They lost Liaodong. The Ming Dynasty, the Northern Dynasties and the Liaodong Jin Kingdom are close to us..."
The afterglow of the setting sun slowly dissipated. The officers and soldiers of the First Division who had left the city were slowly entering the city dragging their wounded soldiers. Chen Cao accepted Feng Zhongping's report at Chengjun Hall.
"The right-wing Jiannu slaves were frightened by the beating, so they turned around and ran away. However, the left-wing was breached. Thirty-seven people were killed and 114 injured. In addition, the loss of Korean soldiers in the Chinese army affected more than a hundred people. .”
Chen Cao knocked on the table, and then said: "The first division will rest immediately, have a full meal immediately, and then stay in Seoul."
Feng Zhongping said in surprise: "Stay behind? Your Majesty, can't our troops attack?"
Chen Cao nodded: "You have been fighting for a day, and the soldiers are tired. And I am going to attack Amin at night tonight. The first division must regain its strength."
Xin Zhao walked into the lobby: "Your Majesty, there is news from General Liu that they are less than twenty miles away from Amin's camp."
"The rangers sent out in the middle of the night will not go more than ten miles, and there are many mountains and ravines in Amin's camp. I have reason to believe that their rangers are at most about five miles away..."
Even if the night attack was discovered ten miles away in the middle of the night, there were tens of thousands of people in Amin's camp. Don't even think about running away. Moreover, the war horses in the night battle were also an unstable factor. It was also thanks to the terrain of North Korea, otherwise Chen Cao would not have been able to escape. Arrange a night raid.
"Tang Yannian dragged 30,000 people from Gurmahun on Muyue Mountain. Now there are at most 40,000 people in Amin's camp, and there are at least 10,000 real Tatars. As long as his camp is broken, Amin will be hit hard. "
Feng Zhongping immediately defended: "Your Majesty, if our troops are left behind, how can one division be able to withstand it?"
Feng Zhongping heard from Chen Cao's expression and words that he wanted to lead the troops himself, so he quickly dissuaded him: "I will just go out of the city with Lao Cao, the first division can still fight."
Chen Cao chuckled and then waved his hand: "No, tonight's battle will be a complete victory. I, Chen Cao, never fight a battle that I am not sure of. My life is precious..."
Everyone else in the hall laughed. Seeing that Chen Cao was so confident, Feng Zhongping gave up the idea of continuing to dissuade him.
.
Winter in North Korea came very quickly. Due to its geographical location, the temperature began to drop significantly in early October. Liu Xingzuo went to North Korea twice and was very familiar with North Korea.
"General Liu, the scouts are here to report that they found Jian Nu's cavalry not far away."
Zhang Yingwu wrapped his collar, then threw a dried chili into his mouth to chew. The spicy feeling immediately filled his head, making his whole body warm.
Liu Xingzuo estimated the time, and then looked at Zhang Yingwu: "Master Zhang, the prince's order was before midnight. It is less than an hour away, so we must march quickly."
The winding official roads of North Korea seemed like child's play to Zhang Yingwu. They were even poorer than before Qingpu County was developed, and they were surrounded by mountain roads. The cold atmosphere made him feel that there were many enemy troops ambushed in the surrounding woods.
"There is a situation..."
One of the Tatar soldiers frowned. These days, only those who are not night-blind can do this at night. Obviously, these two rangers have excellent eyesight at night.
When he carefully saw the shadow walking quickly down the mountain road opposite, the ranger was startled, and then immediately turned around and shouted: "Go back quickly, the enemy is attacking at night..."
Liu Xingzuo received a report from the vanguard that when he discovered the Jiannu Rangers, the two men had already run away. The other party had war horses, while the 52nd Division only had mules and horses pulling artillery. And due to terrain reasons, the Shenwu Cannon was dismantled and only If mules, horses and sergeants can be used to transport the goods at the same time, the speed will be much slower.
"Be quick, otherwise the slaves will react and surround us."
When the two rangers reunited with more than a dozen scattered Ye Bu Shui, more than a dozen of them rushed into the camp as fast as possible. After Amin got the news, he issued a military order and prepared to clean up this self-righteous Ming. Chinese.
"Back then, Juniper marched in the wind and snow at night, but was completely wiped out by our army. Today, there is no snow and wind in Korea, but the cold night is enough to kill these daring Ming people here."
Amin was giving a pre-war speech to encourage his generals, when Solantu rushed into the camp: "Master Beile, Mingguye is attacking..."
Because of Solantu's poor performance during the day, if it weren't for the fact that he was Amin's trusted general, he would have been beheaded long ago. However, he still got a good job to make up for it, patrolling the camp at night.
Chen Cao led the men of the second division to Amin's camp and stopped about two miles away. Because they were discovered by Jiannu Rangers a few miles away, they simply started to attack Amin's camp as planned. The battalion carried out indiscriminate bombardment.
No artillery fire was fired during the day, in order to accumulate strength. Twenty field artillery were placed in front of the formation, and there were also ten Shenwu artillery to assist.
'Dong-dong-dong...dong-dong-dong...dong-dong-dong...'
The shelling started, even though Amin had been alerted by Liu Xingzuo, but the shelling outside the camp was unexpected to him, because he guessed that the Ming army's artillery had not arrived yet.
An explosion immediately sounded in Amin's camp, and the sky-high flames accompanied by the explosion sent the frightened horses running around in the camp.
"Quickly, let the Koreans fire back. Solantu, give you two thousand men and knock out Minggou's artillery array..."
Amin did not expect the North Korean army to cause casualties to its opponents at night, because North Koreans are small and thin, and almost everyone has night blindness.
"The Nanmanzi (people from the Ming Dynasty) are so courageous..."
Solantu's deputy cursed angrily, and then got on the horse with him. After all, Solantu had the title of Baturu, but he was humiliated in the daytime battle.
In fact, it was also the first time for him to come into contact with a new opponent, and they were all equipped with firearms. Compared with the previous barbarians from Southeast Liaoning, these people were obviously different.
Two thousand cavalry rode out of the camp. In order to create momentum, one man and two horses were used. The key point was to use the extra horses to block the bullets fired by the opponent.
The roar of the war horses sounded. Chen Cao had already seen the torches coming, and said: "Cao Shixiu, show off the courage you had in Wuxi."
Being so provoked by Chen Cao, the commander of the Second Division, Cao Shixiu, excitedly clapped his horse forward and cursed angrily, asking his subordinates to prepare to give those Liaodong barbarians a chance to reincarnate.
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
The sound of gunfire accompanied by the fire was unusually dazzling in the dark night, but the various throwing weapons flying from the air also caused a lot of casualties to the forward troops. When a soldier saw that there was no one on the charging horse, he relaxed. Quite a few.
The people in the vanguard were all startled when the war horse following behind suddenly appeared from the side, Jian Nu.
Solantu relied on this trick to defeat the Ming army in Hunhe, which earned him the title of Batulu. Now that he is using the same trick, he has indeed shocked his opponents.
The galloping war horses knocked away all the soldiers who had already engaged the enemy. Even though the bayonet had penetrated the body of the war horse, the opponent was now only relying on the inertia of the galloping war horse to engage him.
"Shoot and shoot..."
The accuracy at night is not good, but the war horse is not small. As long as the war horse is hit, the horse will never be able to take the damage caused by rifle bullets.
Sure enough, after the forward lost nearly two companies of troops, neat gunshots rang out, and upon seeing this, Solantu immediately leaned down to the side of the war horse.
He could clearly feel something whizzing past him.
The battle on the left front didn't matter to Chen Cao at all. He was now thinking about where Liu Xingzuo and Zhang Yingwu had arrived.
"Master Beile, a large number of Ming troops have appeared in the northeast of the camp."
Amin shouted angrily: "Is Solantu back?"
The sound of cannons had just stopped, and Amin thought Solantu had succeeded, but less than half a cup of tea later, the sound of cannons rang again, which made him very annoyed.
Although North Korea's firearms troops fired back, it is unclear whether any casualties were caused to the opponent.
"Ama..." Airli quickly entered the center position: "Solantu's troops broke through the Ming army's front line, but were surrounded inside."
"Why doesn't this idiot retreat?"
Airli didn't dare to speak. Amin's temper was irritable, and the generals around him were silent. However, Amin finally realized that Solantu had already lost face in the daytime battle. If he lost again at night, then he would The reputation of Jurchen Batur was completely lost.
Squeezing the riding whip tightly, Amin thought of Solantu's achievements and shook his head: "Not all people in the Fucha family are idiots."
With the commander's personal endorsement, Airli nodded immediately: "My son understands..."
Solantu's 2,000 men rushed into the Second Division's forward regiment position and actually disabled the entire forward regiment. However, the terrain in North Korea was really bad. Although there was a plain behind the forward regiment, there were two ditches. There were rugged rocks on both sides. After his cavalry rushed over, they fell off their horses and couldn't pick up the speed.
Then the officers and soldiers of the Second Division who outflanked them only needed to raise their guns and shoot their horses, and they could eat all the two thousand in one stick of incense.
Seeing that the circle of guards around him was getting thinner and thinner, Solantu raised his hands toward the north with difficulty. When he was about to make a desperate charge, the sound of golden drums sounded, and there were also loud arrows...
Solantu was overjoyed, and then he waved his sword and shouted: "Jurchen warriors are invincible, and Dajin is victorious..."
"The Jurchen warriors are invincible, and the great gold is victorious..."
"The Jurchen warriors are invincible, and the great gold is victorious..."
"The Jurchen warriors are invincible, and the great gold is victorious..."
