Dorgon narrowed his eyes and realized that this was what Governor Yuan had in mind.

"Two thousand Mongolian soldiers attacked the Ming army in the southeast, while the white-armored soldiers concentrated their efforts to attack the Ming army in the northwest. After the two troops succeeded, they drove the defeated Ming army to attack Yuan Benhuan's formation from both sides." Dorgon said with a sneer.

If you want to fight him here, you are looking for the wrong opponent.

Dorgon looked at the generals and said loudly: "I will assign the offensive tasks below. No one is allowed to disobey or make decisions privately. Otherwise, military law will not spare you."

Everyone agreed in unison, and they all raised their hands and said: "Please give the order to the Fourteenth Belle!"

"I ordered the troops to be divided into three groups. I ordered the Zhengbai flag to be hoisted with Ya Lahu and Zhen Kangguli as the vanguard. Azig, Dorgon, Hauge and other Beile led the rest of the troops to advance. It was agreed that after breaking through the Ming army's fortification pass, they would march to the right.

Turn around and attack Wang Chengyin's troops in the northwest."

Dorgon solemnly warned the generals: "Anyone who does not turn right after breaking through the pass and directly attacks Yuan Chonghuan's formation will be punished for evading the enemy and will be killed immediately."

"Order the Mongolian left camp to secure the mountain, Ezhenbakshunage, and lead the Ezhenbakshi Unager, the Ezhenbakshi, and Mani to command the Mongolian left camp, as well as the soldiers and horses of Zalut, Khalkha and other troops to attack the southeast."

Head towards Zu Dashou’s headquarters in the woods.”

"The leader of the Zhengbai Banner, Duduo, was young, so he brought more than a hundred soldiers as his rear troops to support various ministries."

Dorgon looked at everyone and asked loudly: "Did you all hear clearly?"

"It's clear, I have the order!"

Suddenly, there was a huge crowd and galloping horses, rushing directly towards the fortifications 300 meters in front of Yuan Chonghuan's army formation.

A Niulu heavy infantryman, the first platoon held up a large shield to cover, and charged towards the Juma coming out of the pass.

The main formation of Yuan Chonghuan's army, which was 300 meters away, was not equipped with Lumi guns. The Lumi guns brought over by a limited number were all in Zu Dashou's army, which was convenient for cover. He was planning to use Lumi guns as a weapon.

The general infantry battalion of the Guanning Army in the front row, which consisted of about five hundred people, immediately began to fire arrows. They tied thorns with thorns between the graves and the dilapidated houses, and at the same time cut down the trees and sharpened one end to make Juma wood.

These are connected to form the first line of defense.

At this time, they used their bows and crossbows to shoot at the infantry. They hid behind the graves and roof ridges and shot one after another.

The first row of Jiannu held up their big shields and ran forward. The rows behind them threw bows and arrows while running. Some people on both sides were shot and fell. But Guan Ning's army fell more. Because of their

The armor is not triple armor. It's just a layer of chain mail.

Generally speaking, in terms of armor and weapons, Guan Ning's army is far from being as good as Jiannu.

Soon, Jiannu rushed to the front of the Juma. They threw the ropes one after another, and immediately put the rope on the Juma and the bundle of thorns, and then used the war horses to pull it back. Some of them rushed

Go up and fight hand-to-hand with the infantry of Guan Ning's army. Some of them whip the horses to make them pull away.

Seeing that the situation of He Zhinan's defense was critical, if Jiannu was allowed to use his war horses to drive away the Jima, Jiannu's cavalry would rush over and kill them. The archers who lost the Jima were no match for the cavalry, and they would definitely collapse if they fell.

Then he slashed in a one-sided manner.

He Zhinan jumped up and shouted: "It's time to make great achievements now. Everyone, follow me and knock Jiannu down."

After the shooting, the remaining 400 or so people jumped up, threw down their bows and arrows, grabbed their spears, and assassinated the Qing troops who were standing between them. There were also some who were holding broadswords and long-handled weapons.

The axe-hand wielded a long pole weapon and slashed at the rope, trying to cut it off.

Dozens of infantrymen who were dealing with the horse resistance were caught off guard and were pierced by the spear. The triple armor was not enough in front of the spear with the reinforced tip. The armor was not for defense against the spear. The head of the spear suddenly penetrated the chest.

, directly assassinate here.

But Jiannu was also a veteran of hundreds of battles. He was caught off guard by the spearmen who suddenly jumped out. But they quickly reacted, quickly stepped back more than ten steps, then threw away their weapons, grabbed their longbows, and pointed at Guan Ning.

The army shot away.

These white-toothed warriors shoot arrows as fast as lightning. Large arrows over one meter long were released with a violent bowstring sound.

He Zhinan was wearing fish scale armor, but there was no face armor, and his face was exposed under the helmet. A big arrow accurately hit his left eye. Because the distance was very close, the explosive power of the Qing Bow was very strong. Such a large pulling force

The bow, combined with the heavy arrow, penetrated his head at once, and the three-sided armor-piercing arrow of fine steel shot out from the back of his head. The remaining force shot through the eight-petal iron helmet and emerged from the back of his head.

He Zhinan was knocked back more than ten steps by the impact, and then he fell to the sky and lay on the ground with a bang. Then a large number of large arrows flew towards him. Guan Ningjun's chainmail couldn't stop him, and he was shot directly.

A large area fell. No matter where the arrow was hit, it was all a penetrating wound.

Some big arrows shot out shovel-shaped arrows the size of a spatula, which directly cut off the neck and cut off the arm. A general flag was hit by a big arrow in the stomach, and his intestines were suddenly broken. He fell to the ground and kicked his legs.

Not moving anymore.

Almost a hail of arrows completely blinded the tube condenser.

The remaining people immediately lay down and looked for cover. This kind of shooting frightened them out of their wits. It was really terrifying to have such a big bow and heavy arrows that could pin people to the ground and walls at every turn.

Hutuli took the opportunity to forcefully move away a horse, and then rushed in with fifty swordsmen. He started to kill the Ming army inside. The people behind immediately seized the opportunity and moved more

Reject the horse.

Almost in the blink of an eye, dozens of rebels were dragged away by horses. Then, a large number of cavalry rushed in. The front suddenly collapsed. Almost all the Ming troops fled in all directions. The cavalry covered and killed the scattered deserters.

Yuan Chonghuan's eyes twitched as he watched. He originally thought that the Qing army would have to maintain a stalemate for a while to wear down the energy of the Qing army before he went to support them. Unfortunately, before he could take action, the pass in front was broken.

"Everyone is here, ready to fight." Yuan Chonghuan ordered.

The cavalrymen of Guan Ning's army immediately unsheathed their bows and swords, clamped their three-eyed muskets with their arms, and blew the flames brightly.

However, something strange happened. Jiannu did not move forward to attack Yuan Chonghuan's Chinese army formation. Instead, he suddenly turned and headed towards Wang Chengyin's troops.

Yuan Chonghuan was also a veteran of wars, and he immediately knew that his plan had been seen through by his opponent.

He made a quick decision that the original plan was no longer feasible. He immediately gave the order again.

"Attack the whole army and intercept them." Yuan Chonghuan roared and rushed out first. His soldiers immediately rushed forward and guarded him in the middle.

Dorgon saw Yuan Chonghuan's big banner moving, but he did not hold on to his position, but faced the Qing cavalry who had been abducted. Moreover, he knew in his heart that his plan had also been seen through by Yuan Chonghuan.
