The two armies were resting less than ten miles apart in the south and north of Xianghe County. They knew every move of the other side. Li Yan, who had just escaped from death, did not underestimate the enemy because of the arrival of strong reinforcements. After all, he had just experienced the powerful combat effectiveness of the Qing army.
, and paid an extremely painful price. The team was almost dispersed from ten to four or five times, while the Qing army suffered less than a thousand losses. This is the disparity in strength!
Just after noon, the soldiers had eaten hastily, and the scouts came to report: The Tatar reinforcements were estimated to be more than five thousand!
Li Yan and others couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning. They came quickly and had many soldiers. At this time, the Qing army's strength had reached more than 10,000 and our own force was equivalent to it, but its combat power...
Seeing the solemn expressions on the faces of the generals, Li Yan pretended to smile lightly: "The Tatars have been mobilized one after another. How can there be no countermeasures on the governor's side? There must be news coming soon to hold back the main force of the Tatars or to have reinforcements.
To or..."
He didn't say the last thing, but everyone knew what he wanted to say, retreat! Impossible. The little eunuch had worked hard to lay out the plan for so long, how could he retreat so easily?
"There is no one else here, and we are not ordinary soldiers. General Li, don't pretend to be relaxed. We are all aware of the situation. At the moment, the Tatar soldiers have no other choice but to fight hard. Whether they can do it better than others is another matter. But
No matter what, we cannot escape without a fight. We should follow General Li's example and march forward bravely even if we face death!" Cheng Ming, the Tengxiang Guardsman, has great weight in his words. He is not only one of its leaders but also has a good personal relationship with Chang Yu, so he ordered
He temporarily controls the two guards, which means that he is the boss of the two guards at this time.
Seeing his great righteousness, the generals were inspired by him: for the Ming Dynasty, for the bodyguards, and for the emperor, they would fight to the death!
On one side, Li Yan vowed to fight to the death with the generals, while on the other side, Shang Kexi discussed tactics with Nikan and Mandahai brothers. Well, Mao's tactics. Just rush through the plains and wild areas! The only adjustment is to let
The reinforcements from Mandahai and Wakda brothers were in front, while the soldiers and horses who had just fought were behind.
At three quarters in the afternoon, the sound of horse hooves was urgent. Shang Kexi led more than ten thousand cavalry slowly southward. The Ming army scouts reported urgently. Li Yan repeated his old trick and once again stood up in a pin-shaped formation. At this, Shang Kexi just sneered and said nothing, looking at the Ming army in the distance.
The battle formation is like looking at a pile of corpses!
The two armies were ready to attack. Suddenly, murderous intent was spread within more than ten miles. The howling wind formed and stirred up the clouds in the sky. Xianghe County, close to the battlefield, was like a boat in the stormy sea overnight. The people in the city were frightened to see the two armies fighting for the Ming army's fortress.
Defeated, the reinforcements were frightened and they were overjoyed to have defeated the Qing army. Unexpectedly, not long after, the Qing army came again with even greater force than before, and the people suddenly died. Everyone knew that if the Ming army was defeated, no one in the city would survive.
!
It was still the original battlefield and the same opponent. This time, Shang Kexi and his troops approached without a word of nonsense or even a trace of hesitation. When they were one mile away from the Ming army, they ordered a charge. They didn't even change their tactics at all. They just said two words: "Charge."
!
The enemies were extremely jealous when they met each other. Li Yan was seriously injured and could not fight again, so he took command from behind and the battlefield was handed over to Jinwu Guards and Tengxiang. The eight commanders of the two guards took the lead and rushed to the front line!
This is not the first time that the Qing army has fought against the Ming army, but it is the first time that the guards have faced off against the thundering cavalry of the Qing Dynasty. Is it the swords of the Ming emperor's guards or the horses of the Tatars outside the pass?
, you won’t know until you try it!
The Qing army did not disappoint the guards. They showed their best strength. More than ten thousand cavalry rushed over and almost overwhelmed the Tengxiang Guards led by Cheng Ming in front of them. If it weren't for the Jinwu Guards on the east and west wings.
If he tried his best to divert the troops with a side attack, he might be overthrown by someone, and Tengxiang Wei would be in great disgrace!
"Enough! It's so damn powerful! Let's see what grandpa can do, you dog Tatar!" Cheng Ming laughed angrily and led his soldiers to kill the enemy. In just half a cup of tea, blood was seen on his body...
The sky and the earth were filled with devastation, muffled thunder broke out again in the sky, and the smell of blood spread for more than ten miles. The people in Xianghe City were trembling, and the legs of those watching on the city were weak.
At the same time, on the bank of the canal forty miles northwest of Xianghe River, Chang Yu was covered in blood. He looked at the sky with a knife and laughed wildly. His ghostly face and fangs made the Qing army tremble in fear. The simple knife in his hand was even more terrifying.
It is a bloodthirsty and vicious creature, and those who come into contact with it will lose their limbs and lose their lives. In addition, there is a ferocious iron tower beside it, and the two of them join forces to make it seem like they are in a deserted place in the Qing army's formation!
As expected, Dorgon saw through the little eunuch's plan. When Kong Youde defeated Kong Youde's lone army and marched five miles deep, Kong Youde suddenly led his army to fight back.
Moreover, this gun is thick and long. There are as many as five thousand Qing troops, most of whom are elites under the command of the big bosses, the same soldiers who ambushed Chang Yu yesterday.
Let’s see where you’re going this time! Ergouzi Kong Youde looked at the ghost-faced fangs in the formation with a vicious look on his face and sneered. Yesterday, your two heavy armored soldiers were struggling and they would have been killed if not for the timely reinforcements. At this time
But there are more than 200 heavy armored soldiers and less than a thousand ordinary cavalry... Hey, why the hell are there still soldiers...
That's right, Zhang Jie arrived with two thousand cavalry and joined the battle group!
After seeing clearly that there were only two thousand soldiers and horses, Kong Youde breathed a sigh of relief. If he had only this small force, the eunuch would die! So he ordered a siege and watched the battle from a distance.
After watching for a while, I saw that the little eunuch and the murderous god beside him joined forces and no one could stop him. However, after all, the force was limited. If he wanted to leave, it would be difficult to stay. However, he obviously not only didn't want to leave, but also wanted to make a big noise, so what?
Why should he be afraid of you? When he is exhausted, it will be a good time to capture him. What makes him frown the most is another Ming army!
It’s the heavy armored cavalry with only about two hundred men and horses, all wearing armor. This cavalry is really annoying because they don’t do their job! With such good defense ability, they can’t help the little eunuch to block the swords and arrows, but they are running around in the battle formation. They are wearing
It is difficult for swords and arrows to penetrate heavy armor, and it is difficult for flesh and blood to withstand it. If you are accidentally hit, you will be knocked over and trampled to death!
A lesson learned. Jia Wai Xiong, who almost fell into a quagmire yesterday and was trapped in the mud, suddenly changed his style of painting and began to stop doing his job. He rushed wherever he struggled, and where the Qing army collided. This was how Kong Youde's troops were scattered before and the remaining troops could not be stopped.
The little eunuch's offensive was finally defeated. Having tasted the sweetness, he repeated his old tricks. It was really a pleasure to charge in one circle, and it kept going. He was so happy that after several times, the Qing army's formation was in chaos!
Kong Youde saw it clearly, and he was so angry that he kept yelling at Qiqiaoyan. If he was allowed to behave like this again, he was afraid that trouble would happen again. After cursing secretly, he took another look around the battle situation and figured out how to deal with it.
The strength of the Qing army was more than 2,000, and most of them were elite soldiers with extremely abnormal combat capabilities. Yesterday, they almost killed the young eunuch. Just imagine that the combat effectiveness of Chang Yu's men was incredible, and they almost didn't escape, but
One can only imagine the horror of its combat power.
They have the advantage in terms of military strength, and their combat effectiveness is not stronger than the opponent's. The only troublesome thing is the more than two hundred heavily armored soldiers. If they trap him with heavy troops at all costs and concentrate their firepower to surround the young eunuch...
Thinking of this, Kong Youde immediately ordered his men to besiege Jia Waixiong, just to hold him back, and then use the most elite troops to fight the young eunuch. This move was indeed effective.
Although Jia Waixiong's heavy armored cavalry was invincible, they only had more than 200 of them. Regardless of the cost, the Qing army suddenly changed from avoidance to encirclement, and immediately held it back. At least it was so nimble before, and its mobility was crazily reduced, so Chang Yu
The pressure immediately increased there.
You must know that although Chang Yu still has nearly 3,000 troops beside the heavy armored cavalry of the Black Panther Battalion at this time, the main ones are actually his own soldiers who are already less than a hundred, as well as the Gongzi Battalion and the Black Tiger Battalion combined.
With less than 500 troops, as for the 2,000 cavalry led by Zhang Jie, their combat power is really average. They can still fight against ordinary Qing troops. When encountering such elites, they will stand out!
Retreat! No one expected that at this moment, Chang Yu would give an order and lead his troops to retreat! Not to mention Kong Youde was stunned by this sudden move, even the generals under his command were confused and ran away with him.
Chasing, Kong Youde even didn't believe that the young eunuch suddenly gave in and ran away. It took him a long time to react and ordered his subordinates to give chase. So the two armies chased and killed each other for five miles. Kong Youde was worried that there was a scam.
Then he withdrew his troops.
Unexpectedly, before the defender returned to the original battlefield, the young eunuch from behind came after him again. Kong Youde was furious and tried to trick him! The Qing army returned and fought the Ming army again. After killing Zhancha, the Ming army retreated, and the Qing army chased two soldiers.
Turning back, the Ming army came back again...
Damn it! Kong Youde is going crazy. He doesn’t know what kind of medicine the little eunuch is selling. He does this again and again and is extremely insidious. Every time, he lets his heavy armored cavalry rush to the front and then pulls them back when withdrawing. This reduces the losses but inflicts heavy losses on the troops.
