"Commander, Mr. Liu has withdrawn here," the Chinese army reported to Jia Han again with great vigor.
"Hold the flag and let them enter the formation from the right side of our army."
"嗻!"
The Qing army's flag waved to the right, and Liu Wu quickly led his army into the formation from the right.
Li Zhanchun led his army to pursue him, and found that a strict military formation appeared in front of him. He couldn't help but secretly complained. From crossing the river to chasing the enemy, the soldiers were toothless and hungry. They had to fight with their helmets on for more than two hours.
I was tired, but I didn’t expect that there was a Qing army in front of me that had been preparing for a long time.
He was a veteran general and knew that he could never retreat at this time. Once he retreated, he would be doomed. He could only order a charge into the formation, hoping to take advantage of the momentum of his men to defeat the Qing army on the opposite side.
The sound of "Kill the captives" continued, and a bright red fire burned towards the Green Camp army formation, with swords and swords flashing, and flesh and blood flying everywhere.
On the south bank of Jinshui River, three thousand soldiers and horses of the Shi Lin Division of the Ming Army were sitting cross-legged to rest and have lunch. Suddenly, a black line surged out from the Xuanweng Mountain to the west. It grew bigger and bigger, and gradually turned into a violent wave.
"No, the enemy is attacking! Get in formation quickly," Shi Lin shouted.
At this time, the Ming army was eating lunch and hurriedly arrayed, and couldn't help but be in a hurry.
"Kill me!"
Wu Than greeted his subordinates fiercely. He used himself as an arrow, 800 Chinese troops as the vanguard, and 4,000 soldiers and horses rushed over bravely.
The Qing army's speed was too fast, and Shi Lin couldn't resist it, so she had to retreat with her money.
As soon as the retreat horn was blown, morale collapsed and the Ming army scattered in all directions.
Shi Lin was wounded and captured, with a sharp steel knife placed on her neck. Wu Dan asked with a smile: "Are you willing to surrender? If you surrender, you can live!"
Shi Lin spat and returned the original words: "Are you willing to surrender? If you surrender, you can live!"
Wu Dan was furious and drew the blade, causing blood to splash on the Jinshui River.
After he defeated Shi Lin, he crossed the river and attacked Li Zhanchun's rear.
Li Zhanchun relied on his vigor to attack Jia Han's revival formation. At this time, his vigor had lost and he was gradually unable to resist.
As a last resort, he led his army eastward and fled towards Yuci County.
He was finally overtaken, and the Qing troops came from all directions and surrounded him in the western suburbs of Yuci. They rushed from left to right, with numerous enemy shadows, and all the soldiers around him were killed.
Li Zhanchun kowtowed in the direction of Beizhili, "Your Majesty, I forgive Li Zhanchun, Chief Military Officer of Chongqing, for not being able to serve Long Yan anymore!"
After saying that, he got up, mounted his horse, and rushed towards the Qing army. At this time, he was determined to die, and his sword skills were extremely ruthless. He raised and lowered his hands and killed dozens of enemies with his hands.
In the Battle of Jinshui, only half of the 10,000 Ming army vanguards escaped, which was a disastrous defeat. Especially the loss of the general Li Zhanchun and the deputy general Shi Lin demoralized the Ming army.
"Pa!"
Fan Youxian, the general of the Pinglu Army, was so angry that he slapped the desk of the main tent and said, "I am ordering all the armies to prepare. I will forcefully cross the Jin River to avenge the two generals Li Zhanchun and Shi Lin!"
Li Dingguo hurriedly advised: "Since ancient times, famous generals have not raised armies out of anger. There is Xuanweng Mountain on the west side of Jinshui River. Qing troops are stationed on this mountain and can harass our troops crossing the river at any time. The general thought that if he wanted to cross Jinshui River, he needed to attack here first.
"Mountain".
Fan Youxian nodded, "What Hongyuan said is true."
"Commander, the Jin River is not long. After you capture this mountain, why don't you take a detour and go straight to Taiyuan City? In this way, the Qing army will definitely be at a loss."
Fan Youxian felt that what Li Dingguo said was reasonable. He was a vigorous and resolute man, so he immediately led more than 40,000 troops to Xuanweng Mountain.
??
"The mountain with hanging urns has a lot of jade on it, a lot of copper on the bottom, many beasts on it, and the water of Jin flows out" ("Shan Hai Jing").
Originally, there was a huge boulder in the shape of an urn in the belly of the mountain, which is why it was named after it. During the Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, the earthquake destroyed the boulder, and now it no longer has the shape of an urn.
Since ancient times, a soldier must win.
Fan Youxian ordered all the troops to display military flags embroidered with the four words "revenge", which immediately turned the entire army into mourning. Li Zhanchun was a very generous man. He usually had a good relationship with Peng Mingyang, Chen Bao, and Yang Bingyin. He heard that he would avenge him.
, the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted, and the depression was swept away, and they came over the mountains and plains, overwhelmingly.
Wu Dan, the deputy general of the Qing Dynasty, fought tooth and nail to defend the mountain. However, the number of Ming troops was more than ten times his. And with the anger of revenge, one group fell and another came up. They were unstoppable.
In just half a day, all the villages on the mountain were conquered.
"Abandon your weapons and surrender." Seeing that he could no longer hold on, Wu Dan ordered his subordinates to abandon their weapons.
He was unlucky, and the one who surrendered was Li Zhanchun's good friend Chen Bao.
Chen Bao was a member of Zhu Hengjia's personal guard. He had a strong background, strong connections, and was very courageous. He naturally dared to do such a thing as killing and surrendering.
"Are you U Thant?"
Chen Bao asked angrily, holding a mace.
"It is the guilty general".
"Why did you kill Li Zhanchun?"
"Unjustly, the general at that time mainly fought with the Shi Lin tribe of Gui army on the south bank of Jinshui River. He crossed Jinshui after defeating Shi Lin. Li Zhanchun actually died at the hands of Jia Hanfu and Liu Wu."
After saying that, Wu Dan glanced at Chen Bao, thinking he could escape with his life.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly saw a big black shadow in his eyes, and a huge mace hit his head. With just one blow, his head exploded.
"Shi Lin is also my friend," Chen Bao snorted coldly.
??
Fan Youxian followed Li Dingguo's plan and after capturing Xuanweng Mountain, bypassed Jinshui and appeared in the west of Taiyuan.
Jia Hanfu had been in battle for a long time, and sent out sentries on all sides, and quickly got the news.
"Oops! I am a fool playing chess and not caring about my family! I didn't expect that Fan Youxian is so good at using troops!"
Liu Wu asked: "Jia Gong, what should our army do now?"
"What else can you do? Return to Taiyuan City quickly to defend."
More than 40,000 Ming troops surrounded 10,000 Qing troops in Taiyuan City. Taiyuan City is extremely strong. The city wall is more than three feet high, but its circumference is less than eight miles. It is not so much a city as it is a pass.
The city has four gates: Guanlan in the east, Wangcui in the west, Fengxuan in the north, and Jinxian in the south. Among them, the north gate Wengcheng opens to the east, and the east gate and the west gate Wengcheng open to the south.
Jia Hanfu told Liu Wudao: "In Mr. Liu's town, the east gate is close to the Fen River, and the south gate is close to the Jin River, which is not conducive to the expansion of the army. I predict that the Ming army will focus on the west gate and the north gate. I will guard Cuimen, you.
How about guarding Fengxuanmen?"
"I am willing to listen to Mr. Jia's orders!"
Fan Youxian walked around Taiyuan City and saw that although the city was small, less than eight miles in circumference, it was more than three feet high. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's hard to fight! It's hard to fight!"
Li Dingguo said: "The last general observed the city. It is close to the river on the east and south sides. The city foundation is often washed away by the river and is seriously worn. It is far less strong than the city walls on the west and north sides. Moreover, the Qing army thought that these two sides were close to the river and it would be difficult to launch a large army.
, there are not many defenders. Why not dig tunnels to collapse the east and south gates, and then send elite troops to attack them?"
Fan Youxian believed this and pretended to attack the west and north gates, but he had people dig tunnels to the Guanlan Gate in the east and Jinxian Gate in the south, preparing to use explosives to collapse the city. He also sent Peng Chenbao and Yang Bingyin each with two thousand of the most elite troops.
Warriors, stand in Guanlan, under the two gates of Jinxian.
Jia Han saw that there were not many Ming troops near these two gates, so he didn't take it seriously.
"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"??
After several thunders, the gate of Guanlan Gate exploded, and an entire section of the Jinxian Gate wall collapsed.
Chen Bao and Yang Bingyin led their troops in. Although their men were not many, they were all carefully selected warriors. Once they entered the city, they were unstoppable.
Yang Bingyin went from Guanlan Gate to Fengxuan Gate. The "Second Sentinel" of the Thirteen Huangshuang was very fierce. As soon as Liu Wuguang engaged in the battle, he was chopped down by his machete.
Fengxuan Gate opened, and the Ming army roared into the city.
Jia Hanfu was surrounded on the wall of Wangcui Gate, surrounded by enemies on all sides, and had no way out.
Fan Youxian asked him: "Jia Thief, you were originally a minister of the Ming Dynasty, but you helped the captives to torture. What can you say now?"
"Alas! After the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, it rained down its generals. Am I the only one? If we lose, we will die. Why talk so much?"
Jia Hanfu was a bachelor, so he wiped his neck directly. A great traitor of his generation died at the top of Taiyuan City.
