Daqing was sold!
Ming Dynasty has heavenly soldiers!
I was defeated again!
Run quickly...
As the current top general of the Qing Dynasty and the most relied-upon uncle of Emperor Kangxi, Prince An Yue Le still has very strong military judgment ability. He made four very correct judgments the first time!
First of all, he was betrayed...either by Wu Yingxiong or by Wu Guogui! Maybe they sold it together!
All the fake surrender and the burning of Red Cliff must be fake!
Their purpose was to lure the main force of the new Eight Banners Army of the Qing Dynasty to the north bank of the Yangtze River, where paddy fields and rivers were densely populated, to be eliminated by the Ming Army... All his troops were ambushed by the Ming Army as soon as they arrived near the Neijing River. This is Ironclad evidence of being betrayed!
If Wu Guogui's people really burned down the Ming navy in Chibi Mountain, burned down the pontoon bridge on the Yangtze River, and burned the Wulin Ming army into a lone army, how could they have laid out an ambush circle so calmly?
Moreover, the Ming army's ambush circle was so cleverly arranged and the timing of the attack was so precise. It seemed that the Qing army's advance route and troop strength were predicted in advance. This also proves that the two evil thieves Wu Yingxiong and Wu Guogui betrayed the Qing army. !
Secondly, there are really heavenly soldiers!
There are heavenly soldiers in the sky, and there are heavenly soldiers on the earth!
The heavenly soldiers in the sky are not sure whether they are humans or immortals, and I don’t know what they plan to do? But it must be from the Ming Dynasty.
And the heavenly soldiers on the ground were so fierce... They were completely different from the Ming army that the Qing army encountered in Dengzhou, and the Ming army that they encountered in North Korea!
The Qing soldiers encountered on the north bank of the Yangtze River this time had "invulnerable" armor, and they dared to advance under the noses of the Qing soldiers before opening fire, using the most intensive and precise firepower to defeat the Qing musketeers in one fell swoop. And their infantry are very flexible on the battlefield! Not only can they quickly deploy an ambush circle and launch an attack before the Qing army completes its deployment, but it can also quickly penetrate behind the Qing army! If it weren't for Yue Le's large number of cavalry, which could cover a large screen, his army of hundreds of thousands would have been a mess.
But even so, the Eight Banners vests sent by Yue Le were unable to stop the Ming army's infantry from detouring and interspersing, and could only delay them for a while.
And when the battle reached this point, of course Yue Le knew that he had lost! The defeat was very frustrating. His army of hundreds of thousands had toiled for dozens of miles to attack, but before they could spread out, they were beaten violently by the Ming army who suddenly pounced on them. They didn't even have the strength to fight back! And because the Ming army had already penetrated behind him in a roundabout way, he didn't even have a chance to have a good fight with the Ming army.
Yue Le knew that if he didn't want his entire army to be annihilated, he had to run away immediately... It might not be safe even if he ran to Xiangyang, so it was best to run directly to Xi'an!
After understanding his situation, he had no intention of holding his son Seleng'e responsible for the defeat. Instead, he immediately summoned two veteran generals, Zhao Guozuo and Laita, and asked them to quickly clean up the Gushan in the middle of Zhenglan Banner. The defeated troops should withdraw first - this army is Yue Le's old capital, and the ten subordinate commanders are his confidants. As long as this army is still there, Yue Le still has the capital to hold great power, so no matter what, he has to Get out first!
He had put his solid mountain in front before, not because he wanted them to take the lead, but because he wanted them to assume the responsibility of occupying the starting position and covering the main force to complete the unfolding task. Unexpectedly, he was beaten up by the Tomorrow soldiers, which made Yue Le feel heartbroken.
So he couldn't blame him for losing face now. He directly used his command power to let his direct descendants run away first, and then it was the turn of the remaining eleven Gushan.
According to Yue Le's order, these eleven Gushans all discarded their excess baggage, each carrying only seven days' worth of military rations, and then formed a field battle formation. Finally, the front team became the rear team, and the rear team became the front team, fighting and walking. Breakout toward Xiangyang! Two assembly points, Mianyang Prefecture City and Qianjiang County City, were also specified. .
In addition, Yue Le also ordered each Gushan (excluding Yue Le's own Gushan and Fei Yanggu's Gushan) to draw out at least one infantry leader to maintain the existing front.
Finally, Yue Le also ordered all artillerymen to immediately fire artillery shells in three directions: east, south, and west... to shoot out all the artillery shells, and then nail the fire door. After completing the task, all artillerymen rode on horseback or The carriage evacuated.
After arranging the retreat, Yue Le immediately got on his horse with his staff and palace guards, and rushed to his old subordinates, Zhengbai Banner's new army on the right side of Gushan Fei Yanggu's army.
The Zhengbai Banner belongs to the Shangsan Banners, and Fei Yanggu was a highly regarded general by Kangxi, so the Gushan led by him was quite powerful.
In addition, Yue Le did not dare to put the Shangsanqi troops in a forward position, so Feiyanggu's Gushan was located in a relatively rear position, and now he turned around and became the vanguard of the escape!
...
"Boom boom boom..."
When suddenly there was a loud sound of artillery fire on the battlefield, "Heavenly Soldier Fang Shiyu" was still hanging in the air! At this time, he was quite high-spirited and felt that he was already a famous general who could look down on the world!
No, he is even more powerful than those famous generals!
Because those famous generals have to analyze and figure out the enemy's intentions based on the scattered battlefield information. For example, why is the Qing army making so much noise now? Are you going to launch a counterattack?
But "Fang Shiyu, the Heavenly Soldier" didn't have to guess at all. He took out a telescope and looked down and found out - only a few Qing troops were left at the front, and they were still exchanging fire with the Ming army on the opposite side in a confused manner. They probably don't know that their brigade has been reorganized into leading-level formations, and some of them have already begun to run away!
The Qing army's artillery fire was quite lively. At least hundreds of general cannons were firing randomly. They didn't hit anything, but the rumbling sound of the cannons sounded very powerful.
Obviously, the Qing army just left a small number of palace troops to kill, and at the same time let the artillery fire random cannons to cheer up these unlucky guys who had to kill, and also attracted the attention of the Ming army, making the Ming army think that the Qing army was about to counterattack.
It's a pity that the arrangement of the Qing army cannot be hidden from the eyes of "Fang Shiyu, the heavenly soldier"... He doesn't need to calculate or guess. He knows everything with his eyes and telescope!
...
"Admiral, the Qing army is about to withdraw!"
Qiu Hu also made an accurate judgment immediately - this was too easy. There were four hot air balloons in the sky with "celestial soldiers" helping him see with telescopes!
The Qing troops below were all Eight Banners soldiers, wearing fancy cloth armor and flying various flags. It didn't look too clear that they were condescending. There was a bit of smoke in some areas, but to the heavenly soldiers who were at high altitude and could see the whole situation, the smoke was nothing at all.
"What? You actually want to run?"
Yu Xiaoqian was riding on his horse at this time, and with his staff, he found a place quite close to the front line, holding up his own telescope to pretend to observe the situation on the front line.
The situation on the front line is certainly good!
The three towns that had previously defeated the Qing army in Gushan, a Zhenglan Banner, were besieging several lone Qing army commanders. When the Ming army was chasing the defeated Zhenglan Banner Gushan soldier, those commanders suddenly rushed up to block the holes of their guns. (Actually, they didn't expect Yue Le's troops to be defeated so quickly). After being bitten by the Ming army, they set up three hollow square formations to defend.
The Ming army did not immediately line up to kill them, but instead brought in dozens of five-pound cannons to shoot shotguns outside the effective range of the muskets. Now the three hollow phalanxes of the Qing army were almost dispersed. The positions were full of lying corpses. The Qing soldiers who had not been killed did not dare to stand anymore. They were all squatting or half-kneeling. Shooting back indiscriminately.
On both wings of the Qing army, the four towns of the Ming army suspended their infantry attacks and brought in artillery to fire at the Qing army. Previously, because the Qing army's artillery suddenly opened fire, the Ming army thought they were going to counterattack, so Cannons were also brought in to shoot at the Qing army.
If there were no heavenly soldiers watching from above, Yu Xiaoqian and Qiu Hu would probably be deceived by Yue Le.
Yu Xiaoqian put down the telescope and stopped looking. Instead, he turned to ask Qiu Hu, "Ahuzai, what do you think? How much should we eat?"
"Eat one third first." Qiu Hu said, "Don't be too dark-hearted... Firstly, we have to leave some spare power to deal with Wu Zhou; secondly, we have to leave some thoughts for Kang Mazi, and take Yue If Le's soldiers are all eaten, he may not want Xiangyang; thirdly, we can eat one third of it and then send troops to chase him."
"Okay, let's do it!"
