The so-called Jingguan is a tower made of human heads or corpses, with the purpose of frightening the enemy.
For the victors, this is a show of merit, but for the enemies, this is a naked provocation and insult.
"White soldier, you are seeking death. I will slaughter a city to pay homage to the brothers who died in battle!"
"The Han people say we are cruel, but in my opinion, they are more cruel and uncivilized than us!"
"Mr. Fan, please summon the surrounding cities to take back Da'ankou City. I will massacre Da'ankou City. Afterwards, I will say that it was the white pole soldiers who massacred it because the people in the city surrendered..."
"Shut up!"
Dorgon shouted angrily: "In the Battle of Hunhe, we killed Qin Liangyu's eldest brother, and more than two thousand white-pole soldiers died in the battle. This is a great enemy.
Whatever means the white-armed soldiers use are reasonable, just like how we can massacre a city.
On the battlefield, either you die or I live, don't talk about being cruel or not.
Besides, are you looking for death by attacking Da'ankou City? The white pole soldiers ten years ago could fight against the Eight Banners soldiers, let alone now?
Ten thousand white soldiers defend Da'ankou City. Even if the city wall is not high enough, we do not have 40 to 50 thousand people to attack for two or three days. It is absolutely impossible to break through. Do we still have time? "
Facing Dorgon's angry shouting, Fan Wencheng nodded secretly, finally becoming smarter for once.
After angrily shouting at the generals, Dorgon looked at Fan Wencheng: "Mr. Fan, since Da'ankou City has been lost, Xifengkou must have been lost as well, but the news has not been transmitted yet.
The Ming Dynasty's intention to besiege us is very clear. Since the Great Khan has entrusted the rear army to your command, now we will do what you say! "
Fan Wencheng didn't speak immediately, but stared at the map for a while.
"Dorgon Beile, it's already dark now. If we attack Longjing Pass now, we might be ambushed by the Ming army.
You lead the army to the Daichuan Stone Bridge on the Hun River first, and station on both sides of the bridge. You will lead the army to Longjing Pass at Mao hour tomorrow.
First, capture and hold Longjing Pass, and then immediately send people to the Kalaqin tribe to ask them to send reinforcements immediately. This is said to be the order of the Great Khan.
Second, guard the bridges on the Luanhe and Chehe rivers. Remember, the people are there and the bridges are there.
As for the three thousand elite Ming troops, it would be good if they could be destroyed. If not, don't worry about it. Just ensure that the road from Hanerzhuang City to Longjing Pass is smooth. "
"I'm going right now!"
Dorgon naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, so he didn't waste any time. He got off the city gate tower, got on his horse, and left with his army.
Looking at the billowing smoke and dust brought up by the five thousand elites, the worry on Fan Wencheng's face did not diminish, but intensified.
After a while, Fan Wencheng looked at Feiyanggu's deputy Agudamu next to him: "Agudam, please send someone to Zunhua again to tell the Khan about the situation in Da'ankou City and Xifengkou City.
Then you gather all the gunpowder and firearms in the city, and then lead..."
After a moment, Agudamu turned around and ran towards the city. As he ran, the expression on his face changed rapidly, which clearly showed the importance of what Fan Wencheng explained.
Looking at the blood on Fan Wencheng's chest and corners of his mouth, one of his men whispered: "Mr. Fan, do you want to go back to the Yamen Office to rest for a while?"
"Need not!"
Fan Wencheng waved his hand: "Get me some hot water and bring me a deck chair. I want to wait for the news of Dorgon Beile's success on the city wall!"
After saying that, he sat down on the steps of the city gate tower, staring at the vaguely flying dust in the distance.
A quarter of an hour later, the five thousand elites led by Dorgon arrived at the Luanhe River. Looking at the intact stone bridge and the wooden bridge built side by side, they felt relieved.
"Send the order, divide into two groups, and set up camp on the spot!"
"Jibha and Dabri, each of you will lead a hundred elites to inspect the area three miles around the camp and set up hidden sentries to prevent a sneak attack by the Ming army!"
"Su Hetai, you personally take a few people over the mountain to find out what is going on at Longjing Pass and whether it is still in our hands. If there is any situation, report it immediately!"
Looking at the people leaving, Dorgon took a breath and felt a chill all over as the mountain wind blew by.
Only then did he realize that when he heard about the fall of Da'ankou City and the Ming Dynasty's siege plan in Han'erzhuang City, he actually broke out in a cold sweat.
But he didn't know that every move they made at this moment had already fallen into the eyes of the secret sentry of the Warrior Camp who was already lurking nearby.
After they were stationed for half an hour, Cao Bianjiao, the commander of the Warrior Battalion, received a report from the secret sentry.
"Five thousand elite cavalry?"
A glint flashed in Cao Bianjiao's eyes: "Let Lin Yi, Yi Wudi, and Wu Pan come back!"
In just over a quarter of an hour, the three of them arrived in front of Cao Bianjiao and learned about the movements of Jiannu's reinforcements.
Cao Bianjiao turned his head and looked at the direction where Dorgon was stationed: "The situation is a bit troublesome now. They are now dividing their troops to station on both sides of the bridge.
If we were stationed on the north side of the bridge, we could take advantage of the darkness and use palm thunder to make a surprise attack. Even if we were not killed, many would fall into the river.
Now if we want to completely annihilate the Jiannu reinforcements, we can only wait until all their rear troops cross the bridge tomorrow. We will take the initiative to attack.
First use the advantage of firearms to kill some of them, and then fight with real swords and guns! "
Having said this, Cao Bianjiao looked at the three of them: "Each of us brought three three-eyed fire guns and two palm thunders. My idea is to concentrate all the three-eyed fire guns on the Feixiong camp.
Then they would go back to the rear of Jiannu through the mountains at night, and when Jiannu attacked, they would clear out the defenders by the bridge, and then block the Jiannu's retreat.
We use palm thunder to attack here. With the defense of our armor, as long as Jiannu's bows and arrows don't hit us directly within twenty feet, it won't be a big deal.
The Tiger and Leopard Battalion first used bird cannons to attack, and then used palm mines to attack. As soon as their leading troops were disrupted, our position would move forward, forcing them to retreat.
At that time, Feixiong Camp will follow the three-line warfare method and launch all the three-eyed fire blunderbuss in their hands.
Although the accuracy is a bit lacking, the six or seven thousand handles and the three-eyed fire rush are enough to make up for it. Do you think it is feasible? "
Lin Yi and the other three thought for a moment and then nodded.
They don't have Qin Liangyu's idea of using good steel on the blade. Firearms are strong, but their strongest thing is themselves.
It is best to use it when it is needed and reduce the loss of personnel.
"Yi Wudi, your Flying Bear Camp will have a harder time!"
"Commander, don't worry, I promise to arrive on time!"
Yi Wudi patted his chest. Although each of them had to carry six or seven three-eyed fire punches and a pot of arrows and go over the mountains for more than ten miles, it was not a big problem for them.
"Okay, let's get ready!"
After a while, the warrior camp started to move, but very few sounds were made.
More than a thousand warriors from the Flying Bear Camp left. Under the moonlight, they started to cross the mountains from an extremely hidden path under the leadership of a hunter who came to seek refuge in the afternoon.
