Chapter 170
Looking at Mang Gurtai's head, Cheng Shijie was very happy. He was also afraid that if he made a mistake, he would make a big mistake if he reported it to the court.
Cheng Shijie asked: "Does anyone know him?"
"This slave knows him!"
Su Wannayan, who was standing next to Hu Erqi, spoke up.
Only then did Cheng Shijie notice Su Wannayan. The last time he recognized Ao Bai in front of the battle, Cheng Shijie had noticed him. Ao Bai was the nephew of Fei Yingdong, one of the five ministers, and the number one warrior in Manchuria. And the status is not ordinary. For ordinary Jiannu, not to mention knowing him, probably not many people have heard of his name.
Su Wannayan saw Cheng Shijie's confusion and hurriedly explained: "I am the grandson of Sorguo, the former leader of Su Wanbu. My father is Sorguo's third son, Huerhaqibayan. In terms of seniority, , I’m still Obai’s cousin!”
Cheng Shijie knew that Ao Bai was born in Xianghuangqi and was the Guarjia family, but he didn't know that the Gualjia family was divided into the Suwan Guarjia family, Yehe Guarjia family, Antu Guarjia family and Yehe Guarjia family. Clan, Ulaguaerjia clan and other branches.
Cheng Shijie knew Su Wannayan's name, but he didn't understand the Jurchens' habits. Su Wannayan's full name should be Suwan Guarjia Nayan.
Su Wannayan continued: "When I was in Shenyang, I met Mang Gurtai three times, and I will never admit my mistake!"
"As long as you don't admit your mistake!"
Cheng Shijie said: "Let's see if we can collect Mang Gurtai's armor and weapons. These are important trophies and will be sacrificed to the Ancestral Temple in the future!"
Sun Chengzong looked at Cheng Shijie in shock.
Cheng Shijie was a little puzzled: "As Mang Gurtai, am I not qualified to sacrifice to the Ancestral Temple?"
"Enough, enough! If Mang Gurtai's identity is not enough, then who is?"
Sun Chengzong just couldn't believe the fact before him. It was too unbelievable to capture Nurhachi's seventh son Abatai alive and kill his fifth son Manggurtai.
Cheng Shijie smiled and said: "I thought that only Huang Taiji's head was qualified to be sacrificed to the Ancestral Temple!"
In fact, what Cheng Shijie didn't know was that in history, Mao Wenlong made a surprise attack on Zhenjiang Castle and captured more than 60 people including Zhenjiang guerrilla Tong Yangzhen and his son Tong Songnian. These 60 people were also sent to the capital, beheaded and sacrificed to the Ancestral Temple.
At that time, it was very difficult to kill a guerrilla who was a slave, let alone Mang Gurtai, one of the four Baylors?
According to the Ming Dynasty's system, Mang Gurtai would at least be a prince.
Sun Chengzong looked at the front of the formation and saw the Jiannu army coming in like a terrifying wave, one wave after another. He couldn't help frowning and said angrily: "Is the Jiannu army made of iron? Even if it is an iron-clad army, there will be casualties. It’s time for so many people to quit!”
Cheng Shijie smiled and said: "Even if they are made of iron, they are old today...!"
Cheng Shijie wanted to say what happened to me, but thinking about it in front of Sun Chengzong, he immediately changed his words and said: "I also want to make Jian Nu become soft and flexible."
"Meng En!"
"Here we are!"
"Pass this commander's orders to add fire!"
"yes!"
Following Cheng Shijie's order, the green light flares, which were actually fireworks, shot into the sky. The fireworks flew more than a hundred meters into the air and exploded in the air.
About five miles away from the battlefield, hundreds of Ning Haijun scouts were fighting with Jiannu's rangers. They saw fireworks in the sky.
"The time has come, send the signal!"
Green fireworks appeared one after another in the sky.
Huang Taiji was shocked when he saw this scene: "Cheng Shijie still has reinforcements?"
The answer is yes. Although Cheng Shijie's main force only had left, right, and guards, three infantry divisions, plus cavalry divisions, as well as reconnaissance cavalry and hunting cavalry troops, more than 30,000 troops, there was also a garrison division. As early as Dongjiang Before Guan Ning's army and Guan Ning's army arrived at Baliwan City, Ning Haijun's garrison commander arrived at Baliwan City as a food transporter. Although Jiannu had sporadic scouts, it could be seen that the Ming army and civilians would leave immediately after arriving at Baliwan City.
In fact, they only left during the day and marched back to Baliwan City at night. Now the garrison troops of the garrison capital began to receive orders, and they slowly moved towards the battlefield.
Huang Taiji looked at the signal and realized something was wrong. Now Jiannu was in danger, and he could still hold on, but he was at the end of his strength. Huang Taiji wanted to put the positive yellow flag up and make the final decision.
If Cheng Shijie still has hidden troops, he will definitely be in big trouble.
"Somebody come!"
"The slave is here!"
"Go and check how many backup plans Cheng Shijie has!"
"yes!"
In Baliwan City, the garrison who received Cheng Shijie's order began to line up in a neat formation, holding weapons and slowly leaving the city. When they arrived outside Baliwan City, Jiannu waited on them and saw the troops pouring out like a tide, as if they were in the city. icehouse.
Black flags, black helmets, and black armor are as far as the eye can see. Almost 70% of the soldiers in the tens of thousands of troops are wearing armor. If this is not the main force of Ning Haijun, their eyes can be dug out and used as bubbles.
"Hurry and tell King Khan that the Ming army still has a large force!"
This Ning naval force, looking at the Jiannu cavalry waiting in the distance, did not become nervous. Instead, it formed a huge hollow square formation. It did not panic, make noisy, or stop, but continued to march.
More than 10,000 troops have left the city, but they haven't finished coming out yet. How many troops are there?
In fact, the real garrison consists of seventeen bureaus, plus the new recruits from the Shuangcheng Guards Management Committee. There are not many people, barely more than 20,000. However, after actual combat, Jiannu knows that black-skinned troops like Ning Haijun are not as powerful as other Ming armies. It's completely different. Their 10,000 people are more powerful than the 10,000 people from the Great Jin Kingdom.
They had nearly 100,000 men and fought for two days around Ning Haijun's 50,000 to 60,000 men. Ning Haijun's losses were unclear, but they were definitely much smaller than those of Dajin.
Du Du roared: "The sound of the Ming army's firecrackers has stopped, their firecrackers can't be fired..."
Jiannu's morale was boosted and he charged even more fiercely.
It is absolutely a joke to say that Ning Haijun cannot fight in close combat. Ning Haijun was not wealthy from the beginning. How long did it take for them to be equipped with firearms?
Before the Dengzhou Mutiny, Ning Haijun's firecrackers were not even close to 100%, and they only had a symbolic role. In the war at that time, Ning Haijun relied on hand-to-hand combat.
Especially the pikemen of the Ning Navy, they formed a dense formation and completely ignored Jiannu's charge. In front of the relatively dense formation, Jiannu seemed not to know how to fight.
Ning Haijun was always in an absolute space, using more troops to attack the smaller ones. Normally, four or five spearmen would deal with one Jian Nu. In this way, Jian Nu's martial arts would not be able to show off no matter how high they were.
There are performances everywhere on the battlefield. No matter how skilled you are, you are still afraid of being stabbed by spears. Five or six spears are blocking all the spaces. Where can you hide?
As the saying goes, every inch is long and every inch is strong. Faced with a four-meter-long spear like Ning Haijun, Jian Nu could only watch helplessly as the opponent's spear pierced into his body.
"Uncle Ten, be careful!"
Du Du saw that all the soldiers in front of Degerei, the leader of Zhenglan Banner, were dead and wounded, and hurriedly shouted for Degerei to retreat.
Unfortunately, it's too late.
The spearmen of the Ming Army fought hand-to-hand with Jiannu in the front. The Ning navy soldiers in the back were holding grenades and throwing them at Jiannu's formation, and the grenades flew past.
All the slave soldiers in front of Derge fell down. A grenade landed ten steps in front of Derge's horse and exploded. It is said that under normal circumstances, the power of the grenade is not enough to kill Derge, but it is very powerful. Unfortunately, when the grenade exploded, it blew away a broken knife of a slave soldier.
The knives equipped by Jiannu are very sharp. Most of them are made of high-carbon steel. As the saying goes, the steel is easy to break. In battle, the blades of Jiannu are easy to break.
This palm-sized broken knife flew towards Dege like shrapnel, cutting off half of Dege's shoulder...
Degelei died in one encounter. Thousands of Zhenglan Banner soldiers under his command were immediately thrown into disarray. The leader of the big banner, Mang Gurtai, was dead. They also had the leader of the smaller banner, Degelei. Now both of them are dead. , they even gave me a fart...
"Failed, defeated..."
The arrogant Jiannu roared desperate slogans. Not to mention fighting forward, Jiannu now had spear formations of Ning Navy soldiers everywhere in three directions, compressing towards them.
The collapse of Zhenglan Banner was not yet complete. When Cheng Shijie saw this, he smiled and said: "Jiannu can't hold on any longer. Life is over. Shoot out all the cannonballs!"
"But, Marshal, our people are too close, and it is easy to cause accidental injuries!"
"Inadvertently injured, I will take care of you!"
Cheng Shijie hung up the intercom directly.
Yuan Shiliang ordered helplessly: "Fire on target!"
The last salvo of twenty-four three-inch guns and more than a hundred Franco machine guns destroyed Jiannu in a large area.
"Failed, defeated..."
The remnants of the Zhenglan Banner were finally frightened. They turned around and ran towards the Jiannu camp. Some Jiannu were not afraid of death and wanted to fight again, but they were knocked to pieces by Jiannu's cavalry.
More importantly, as Ning Haijun moved in the direction of the Chinese army, an earth-shattering sound sounded.
Cheng Shijie took the walkie-talkie and said: "All soldiers, I am Cheng Shijie. I am ordering you to leave the slaves as fertile land and attack with the whole army!"
All the Ming army, including the infantry of Ning Haijun and Dongjiang army, shouted in unison: "Long live the commander! Long live the commander!"
The infantrymen raised their spears and launched a hand-to-hand charge. Many Jiannu soldiers were caught off guard and were skewered into meat skewers by two or three. The entire military formation was rushed back. It was not easy to stabilize the position. The Ming army's formation Thousands of fierce Hengdao wielders were killed, and they swung the Hengdao into the middle of them like tigers rushing into a herd of sheep. The Hengdao flew up and down, blood spraying everywhere, like slaughtering pigs and sheep.
After persisting with Ning Haijun for so long, their belief in victory was that Ning Haijun's hand-to-hand combat was not enough. But in fact, they had fought hard with Ning Haijun's spearmen for so long and lost thousands of lives, but they did not achieve what they wanted. results.
There were less than ten thousand Jurchens, and their belief that they were invincible was shattered by Ning Haijun's long formation.
"Failed!"
Just when Jiannu in the formation collapsed, Huang Taiji had just received the news.
"What are you talking about? There are two to three thousand Ning navy in Baliwan City?"
"Replying to the master, 30,000, should not be less than 30,000, almost everyone is wearing armor, that must be the main force of the black leather!"
Huang Taiji felt great hatred in his heart. At this critical moment, Ning Haijun still had more than 30,000 troops who had not joined the battle. If they joined the battle...
What a slap in the face!
In the past, when Huang Taiji and Jiannu analyzed the Ming army, they usually compared the number of the Ming army by dividing it by ten. An army of 30,000 horses was regarded as three thousand. Using twice the superior strength, it was also That is 6,000 troops, enough to completely defeat the Ming army.
But now, Huang Taiji looked at the more than 10,000 troops of Zhenghuang Banner. Ning Haijun dispatched 30,000 troops to press the entire Zhenghuang Banner, which might not be able to stop Ning Haijun.
Huang Taiji had already given up on quitting at this time. He could no longer see the hope of defeating Cheng Shijie. As for whether Cheng Shijie would become a serious problem for the Kingdom of Jin in the future, that was a matter of the future and he could no longer think about it. .
"Quickly, pass this order from King Khan to retreat!"
Before the messengers around Huang Taiji ran to deliver the order, a black mass of Jiannu's defeated troops appeared in front.
"Failed, defeated!"
Huang Taiji was confused: "What's going on?"
Yue Tuo, covered in blood and stains, came back, with a look of grief and anger on his face: "King Khan, the fifth uncle is gone, and the seventh uncle is also dead!"
"What?"
Huang Taiji had a look of disbelief on his face. He was cold all over, his eyes were dull, he was shocked, fearful, angry, confused...
"King Khan!"
Huang Taiji fell to the sky, Yue Tuo hurriedly stepped forward to help Huang Taiji up.
At this time, more defeated troops swarmed in.
Yue Tuo looked at the unconscious Huang Taiji and struggled to help Huang Taiji onto his horse. Two soldiers held Huang Taiji's horse and asked hurriedly: "Master Baylor, what should I do now?"
Yue Tuo looked at Huang Taiji who was "unconscious" but riding steadily on the horse. He immediately understood that he would bear the blame. Of course, he would bear the blame for Huang Taiji. It would not be a big problem. At most, he would be whipped. You may be deprived of your title.
It's great to find a reason for him to recover.
Thinking of this, Yue Tuo pointed in the direction of Shenyang and said: "Retreat, retreat..."
Huang Taiji was indeed pretending to be faint. He was very puzzled. What happened to this god?
Ever since Nurhaci raised an army with thirteen pairs of armor, of course as a witness, Huang Taiji knew that the so-called thirteen pairs of armor did not refer to the real thirteen pairs of armor, but to Nurhachi's father Takshi and grandfather Jue Chang'an, etc. Armor on thirteen corpses.
In order to promote Nurhaci, it became that Nurhaci relied on thirteen armors to raise troops and successfully seized the Ming Dynasty. This was a smear against the Ming Dynasty.
It's also for bluffing. If five hundred people defeat five hundred people, it's not extraordinary. Five hundred defeating one hundred thousand people is a legend.
In fact, in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, official administration was corrupt. Not to mention the Ming Dynasty's Jianzhou Zuowei Commander, the second-grade Longhu General, even Cheng Shijie, the Dengzhouwei Zuo Qianhu, although he did not have a pair of iron armor at the beginning, this It was not because of him, but because his predecessor, Qian Husuo Gaowang, had sold all his armor.
In the second year of Jingtai of the Ming Dynasty, he began to issue orders to build 160 sets of weapons every Wei year, 40 sets for each army. The Jianzhou left guard had its own production tasks. How could Nurhaci only have thirteen pieces of armor?
Of course, this is not important, as long as everyone knows that this is bragging, the general idea is that I started from scratch and brought down the Ming Dynasty.
To put it this way, Comrade Lao Zhu conquered the country thousands of miles with a dog-beating stick.
Dorgon, Duduo, Azig, Dudu and Hauge were all stunned.
This was the first time that the Kingdom of Jin lost to the Ming army in a battle involving more than 10,000 people, and they lost so miserably that they had nothing to say!
The bones of tens of thousands of soldiers were buried on the battlefield, the heads of two Baylors, Mang Gurtai and Dege Lei, fell to the ground, and Abatai was carried away. The bloody reality shocked them so much that they couldn't believe it was true.
However, the wild shouts and shouts of the Jiannu soldiers came like a tsunami, drowning everything, and they had no choice but to believe it!
"Failed, defeated!"
The defeat was complete, the defeat was out of control!
Hauge's eyes were red and he looked like he was crazy. He wielded his long knife and slashed at the fleeing Jiannu soldiers. Every time he chopped down one of them, he let out an angry roar: "Don't retreat! You cowards are not allowed to retreat. Charge forward." Kill all these lowly Chinese dogs! You are not allowed to retreat. Anyone who dares to retreat will have his head chopped off and his wife and children will be demoted as slaves. Do you hear this?"
However, under the fierce attack of Ning Haijun, Hauge's threat completely lost its due effect. More and more Jiannu soldiers chose to turn their backs on Ning Haijun and ran away, and then were chopped down from behind by Ning Haijun's officers or the Dongjiang Army. fall.
Once they lose their belief in victory and the courage to fight, the performance of the Jurchen warriors, who are known as "invincible", is no better than the Ming soldiers who have been defeated thousands of times by them.
Zu Dabi said in disbelief: "Jiannu was defeated!"
"Well defeated!"
Zu Dale's voice was full of tears: "Brother, we defeated Jiannu!"
"Cry your ass!"
I don't know when Cheng Shijie came behind Zu Dale. He shouted at Zu Dabi and Zu Dale: "What are you doing standing still? Your ears are stuffed with donkey hair, so you can't hear my command?"
Zu Dabi reacted: "Cheng Shuai!"
"The whole army strikes back and leaves Jiannu as a fertile land for me!"
Zu Dabi raised the Mo Dao in his hand and said with a smile: "I understand, brother, did you hear it? Cheng Shuai has an order to leave no one behind. The whole army will fight back and leave Jiannu as a fertile land!"
The officers and soldiers of Ning Haijun, Guan Ning Army, and Dongjiang Army roared like the earth was shattering, and their offensive became more and more fierce. Under their blow, Jiannu was no longer simply defeated, but simply collapsed thousands of miles away!
Although the main force of the battle, Ning Haijun, was very tired, the morale of these soldiers had reached its peak. They dared to pursue hundreds of Jiannu even though there were only a few dozen of them. It is a small force with only a few hundred people, but it has the momentum of thousands of troops.
Although Hauge was unwilling to do so, the soldiers beside him said: "Master, retreat. If you don't retreat, it will be too late!"
Hauge roared from the top of his lungs: "I have followed my father Khan in the north and south since I was a child, and I have never been defeated, let alone retreating in front of the bright dogs! Kill them! Kill all those bright dogs! They have less than Four thousand cavalry, what are we afraid of? What are we afraid of!"
The soldier whispered: "King Khan has withdrawn!"
Hauge turned around and saw Huang Taiji's banner, slowly retreating, moving all the way to the northeast, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
Seeing that Huang Taiji was retreating, Hauge was like a frustrated ball. His father had already run away, but he still persisted!
The Ming army was extremely excited. The entire army rushed towards Jiannu like tigers descending from the mountain. Especially the Dongjiang Army, which charged the hardest. The Jiannu warriors surrounded by them were instantly picked up on the tip of a spear. Waving chunks of plasma and flesh.
At this time, the Jiannu soldiers had completely lost their fighting spirit. They grabbed the horses and fled with their lives. They had no idea at all. They just wanted to escape as far away from here as possible, and as far away from the Ming army as possible!
They had many horses, and their mobility always had the upper hand. The Ming army infantry could not catch up, so they could only vent their anger on those who failed to grab the horses.
The happiest person at this time was actually not the Ming army, but Su Wannayan, who was a Jurchen. He was proficient in bow and horse, but he had no intention of being polite to Jian Nu. He bit Jian Nu like a pack of wolves seeing blood. The main force of the slaves is Zhenghuang Banner.
The hunting cavalry with less than 2,000 men and horses insisted on biting the Zhenghuang flag with more than 10,000 men and horses and refused to let go. Those small groups of troops that fell behind were bitten and eaten one by one. Dead corpse on earth...
The only ones who did not participate in the pursuit were the artillery and fire support troops of the Ning Navy. Their military exploits were sufficient. After the Ning Navy garrison arrived on the battlefield, there was no shortage of manpower. Now that the Ming army was outnumbered, Jiannu didn't have the courage to resist even if he wanted to.
After the great victory, the Ming army's morale was like a rainbow, and they chased for thirty miles in one breath. The flags, weapons, and corpses of the Jiannu were also thrown away for thirty miles. It was not until heavy snow fell that the Ming army temporarily stopped the pursuit.
At this time, a thirty-mile radius was covered with corpses!
At this time, Sun Zhiyi was still in disbelief: "I actually won the battle!"
Sun Chengzong looked at Sun Zhili and said with some confusion: "You seem to be a little regretful?"
Sun Zhiwan did have some regrets. Originally, his cousin Sun Shisanniang wanted to disguise herself as a man and follow him to Liaonan. At that time, he was worried that Shisanniang would spread rumors that would insult the Sun family tradition, so he only brought his attendants with him. Concubine Luo.
If she had brought Thirteenth Mother here, even if she became one of Cheng Shijie's concubines like Luo, she would have lived a lifetime of glory and wealth.
You must know that among Nurhachi's sixteen sons, three of them, the fifth Mang Gurtai, the seventh Abatai, and the tenth Degelei, fell into the hands of Cheng Shijie. This great achievement was enough to make him a prince.
Sun Chengzong breathed a sigh of relief. With this victory, Jiannu suffered heavy losses and would not be able to recover for at least three to five years. Ming Dynasty could finally free up its hands to deal with the rebels in the world.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Ming Dynasty..."
The cheers of the Ming army soldiers came from the distance. Cheng Shijie rode his horse. Everywhere he passed, there were the voices of the Ming army soldiers shouting long live.
"Cheng Shuai is victorious!"
"Cheng Shuai is mighty!"
"Cheng Shuai is domineering!"
Cheng Shijie was also very happy.
Shen Ming met him and asked, "Commander, are we still pursuing him?"
"Of course we will continue to pursue! This is our territory. How can they come and leave when they want? If they want to leave, they must leave something for me no matter what! Count the casualties, set up camp, and continue the pursuit tomorrow! I Slaves should always remember this day!"
