He once thought about killing the masked man, but even he couldn't get any advantage from the masked man. To be precise, he should be at a disadvantage.
This was difficult for Li Shumi to accept. He was also a fierce general under Yue Zhongqi. He often fought on the battlefield and his martial arts was also very good. But now...
In the ensuing battle, Li Shubi wanted to kill the masked man, but it backfired. He was defeated and kept losing. No matter how he changed his formation, he could not stop the defeat. Later, his own army even
Chaos arose. After all, this was just a makeshift army. Without a long period of training and fighting, it was no longer easy to persist until now.
When the fighting stopped at nightfall, Li Shumi had lost a total of 5,000 men, injured more than 10,000, and left more than 80,000 men. Although they were not injured, their morale was low. If this problem cannot be solved, tomorrow's battle...will definitely be defeated.
!
Li Shubi pounded the table hard and said sternly: "Who is that masked man? He actually made us fool around?"
A lieutenant general said: "General, I see that he is very familiar with our military tactics. He is probably from the Qing Dynasty. But such a person actually went to Jungar, which is really confusing to me."
Li Shubi said bitterly: "Why he went to Junggar has nothing to do with us. The most important thing right now is that we cannot continue like this and we must find a way to get rid of him."
Another deputy general suggested: "General, why don't we go sneak attack at night and kill this person?"
Li Shumi had the same idea in his mind, and immediately nodded and said: "This is the only way right now. You immediately select some smart and capable soldiers. After the third watch, sneak into the enemy camp and assassinate this person." He knew very well in his heart that this method was
It was extremely risky, but he had no choice. If he continued to lose like this, he would be unable to stop them within a few days. But they were the only line of defense for the Qing Dynasty, and they had to be blocked until Master Fobiao led troops to return for reinforcements.
The time soon reached the third watch, but before the deputy general could lead his men to the enemy camp, many torches suddenly lit up in the darkness, followed by the deafening sound of fighting.
"No! Enemy attack!" The deputy general and Li Shumi, who had just heard the noise and left the camp, shouted these four words at the same time, their faces extremely ugly.
Not only did they think of a sneak attack, the other party also thought of it, and a large number of soldiers attacked them, clearly intending to take advantage of the chaos and kill them all.
A sharp sound rang out in the military camp, and all the soldiers picked up their weapons and ran out of the camp. However, in such a hurry and even with sleepy eyes, how could they be prepared to compete with the Junggar soldiers, let alone during the day?
The war has depleted their morale and even their courage.
The Jungar soldiers with ferocious smiles were like hunters, harvesting prey one after another, dyeing the land a scarlet color.
Li Shumi looked at all this with red eyes. He knew that he was defeated and completely defeated. Who would have thought that in just one day of fighting, he would lose everything and there would be no chance of a comeback. He was unworthy of Prince Guo's recommendation.
I have betrayed the emperor's trust. After tonight, there will probably be no more 100,000 troops.
This is an unchangeable fact. No matter how hard he collects his soldiers, it will be in vain, but he will not just sit back and wait for death.
The one who ordered these Jungar soldiers to attack must be the masked man. He should be nearby. Find him and kill him. As long as this biggest danger is eliminated, the Qing Dynasty can still be saved.
Thinking of this, Li Shumi looked around, and sure enough, not far away, he saw a man standing with his hands behind his hands, wearing the same mask he had seen during the day.
Li Shumi killed a Jungar soldier, took the sword from his hand, and then ran towards the place where the masked man was. However, as soon as he ran out of the military camp, he was pierced between the eyebrows by a sharp arrow shot from the darkness.
He passed through it and fell back with his eyes wide open.
After Li Shubi fell to the ground, Hongshi walked up to him, took off the mask on his face, and said with a half-smile: "Li Shubi, I took off the mask, but you still don't recognize me, right?"
With an arrow in his head, Li Shubi had long since lost his breath. Naturally, he was unable to respond to Hong Shi's words. However, the latter seemed unaware and squatted down and said: "Let me tell you, I am the second prince of the Qing Dynasty, Aixinjueluo Hong."
At this time, be sure not to give the wrong name in front of King Yama."
When he got up, Hongshi had already put on his mask again. At this time, the Qing army's camp had turned into a Shura hell. People were being killed constantly and then fell into a pool of blood. When the killing stopped, it was already dawn.
In one night, more than 10,000 people were killed. Except for some of the remaining ones who escaped, they were all tied up and taken back as their prisoners.
One hundred thousand troops collapsed in one day and one night, and even the commander died.
When Galdan saw this scene, he was overjoyed, especially after knowing that only more than a thousand people on his side had died. He was even more delighted and said to Hongshi: "You did a good job this time. I have led the army for more than ten years.
This is the first time Shang has won a battle at such a small cost, very good!"
Hongshi said modestly: "King Khan thanked you for the reward. I just fulfilled my promise to King Khan."
He guessed that Li Shumi, who had suffered a disastrous defeat during the day, would not let go of the opportunity to sneak attack at night. Instead of passively defending, he would attack in the same way and fundamentally destroy Li Shumi's plan. However, he had more thoughts than Li Shumi.
To kill Li Shumi, all the power of the Qing army must be completely destroyed.
As for him standing in such a conspicuous place, it was simply intentional, just to lure Li Shumi to the bait and take his life. Although Li Shumi was restrained by him in the daytime battle, this man did have some talents, so he kept him
This was not a good thing. So Hongshi ordered the archers to lurk in the dark, while he stood on the outside and lured Li Shumi out of the melee in order to shoot him dead and avoid future troubles.
In one day and night, the entire army was destroyed and the general died in battle. Once this news reached the capital, everyone would be panicked. In order to protect the Qing Dynasty and stabilize people's hearts, Yinzhen would...definitely go on a personal expedition.
Galdan didn't know that Hongshi was thinking so much. He looked in the direction of the capital from a distance and sneered: "A hundred thousand troops were destroyed in an instant. I want to see what else the Qing Emperor can do to prevent me from attacking the capital."
." After that, he raised his voice and said: "Give me the order, rest for a day, and move forward at full speed tomorrow. We must reach the capital within two days."
Hongshi turned his eyes slightly and said: "King Khan, I have a suggestion. I wonder if King Khan would be interested in hearing it."
"If you have any suggestions, just ask." In this battle, Hongshi made great achievements, and Galdan looked at him differently and became much more polite.
