The defeated Tatars continued to attack the 40,000 troops who still maintained their formation behind them.
The Tatar soldiers who collapsed in front were too panicked. The soldiers in the back row were constantly shot down by rifles behind them. Everyone felt that they would be killed in the next second, and their faces were full of fear. Some of the defeated soldiers rushed forward regardless of
He entered the formation of an army of more than 40,000 people preparing for war, hoping to use the other Tatars in the army as a shield behind him to block bullets.
Their fear and disintegration impacted the morale of the 40,000-strong army behind them, making the army of more than 40,000 people somewhat shaky. The most important thing was that the stronghold in front was impeccable, and they seemed to be within the range of the Ming army's artillery.
Death. Seeing the tragic situation of the defeated troops in front, the more than 40,000 people behind who did not participate in the battle were also a little trembling.
When the defeated Tatar army escaped from the first ditch and fled away howling, the army of more than 40,000 people turned into the front line of the Qing army. Li Zhi's cannon was loaded with shot shells again and fired at this
More than 40,000 people opened fire.
More than 10,000 rounds of projectiles pierced the sky and were fired at more than 40,000 Tatars.
Blood immediately burst out from the Tatars arrayed in front of the trench, splashing into the air like cheap paint, spraying the surrounding soldiers all over their faces. Screams and groans immediately emanated from these Tatars who did not participate in the battle.
It emanates from the crowd and is heard endlessly.
After only one shot, the more than 40,000 Tatars collapsed.
The casualties in this battle were so heavy that the Tatars were frightened.
The Tatars who collapsed in front were constantly attacking their ranks, and their morale had dropped to the critical point. But the roaring shells could not be stopped by flesh and blood. No one wanted to have the guts to stand in the range of the cannon.
No matter how stupid you are, your life is not a trivial matter. In a life-or-death situation, your biggest concern is to save your life.
Baiya Ladu was holding the formation in front, and at this time, he had also been defeated by the defeated army. This army of more than 40,000 people did not have a strong holding force. The roar of the officers alone was not enough to defeat the force brought by the artillery.
fear.
After a round of cannonballs, the Tatars' more than 40,000 reserve troops could no longer be called an army. They turned into a broken army, and everyone ran behind them in panic.
The disintegrated Tatars fled in confusion to 300 meters, and were again bombarded by Li Zhi's cannon with solid shells.
One hundred and forty cannonballs were like one hundred and forty gods of death, bouncing on the ground, breaking through all the flesh and blood bodies he encountered, and carving out more than a hundred death alleys in the densely dispersed troops. Those drawn by those alleys
All the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty had their bodies broken, arms and legs broken, and they either died on the spot or were seriously injured and bleeding profusely.
The fleeing Qing troops were even more frightened, howling and crying, and used all their strength to flee far away, just to get as far away from the death-like Ming army's stronghold as possible.
More than 50,000 Tatar troops rushed to the central Qing army 500 meters away, and almost rushed into the Chinese army. The elites of the Chinese army's Gabushxian Battalion slashed to death dozens of attacking Chinese troops.
The rout of the troops frightened off these panic-stricken rout troops. The rout troops fled in separate directions from both sides of the Chinese army, as if encountering a flood on a rock.
Among the Tatars' central army, the faces of the Qing's bele were ashen.
This battle was a terrible loss.
In the front, auxiliary soldiers and followers were used to build the wooden bridge, and seven thousand people had already died. If these auxiliary soldiers and followers can be gradually replenished, the soldiers who died in the rear were elites who were difficult to replace.
Seven thousand people died, and at least two thousand more died during the rout. Of these more than nine thousand people, at least three thousand were in foot armor and horse armor.
These infantry and horse armor were the backbone of the Qing Dynasty, but they were consumed like a massacre in front of Li Zhi's stronghold.
Dorgon felt his heart bleeding.
Dorgon has always felt that he was wise and heroic. He was able to fight on the battlefield at a young age and was invincible in all directions. All the princes and princes, Beile, looked up to Dorgon very much. In the past few years, when the emperor Huang Taiji was handling state affairs, he would often
Discuss with yourself. Dorgon has always been confident and feels that there is no difficulty in the world that he cannot handle. Dorgon even feels that his ability is comparable to that of the emperor.
However, today, at Qingshan Pass, I was played and tricked like a monkey by Li Zhi. Little by little, Li Zhi tricked himself into committing troops to die. In the end, a stronghold failed to be captured, and Dorgon lost the money.
Ten thousand warriors of the Qing Dynasty.
As an ordered general, I and Yue Tuo led an army of 90,000 into the pass, known as a hundred thousand. Now there are only more than 50,000 of the 90,000 army left, with nearly half of the casualties. With such a huge loss, how many years will it take for the Qing Dynasty to recover?
vitality?
He led his troops into the Pass and caused such losses to the Qing Dynasty. What would Zhu Beile think of him? How would the emperor deal with him?
Dorgon held his chest and bent down, as if he couldn't breathe.
Abatai shook his hands and said: "General, I have been ordered to retreat and collect the defeated troops!"
Huang Taiji's eldest son Hauge's face was as white as snow, and there was no blood on his face. He took the lead in this battle, and it was he who came up with the strategy of filling the trenches with wooden bridges. As a result, seven Qing soldiers died trying to build the wooden bridge.
Thousands of people, but the wooden bridge built by the dead seven thousand people was meaningless, and the Ming army's stronghold was impeccable.
Hauge knew that he was doomed. His reckless suggestions had caused so many casualties. Zhu Beile would definitely look down on him, and Huang Ama would definitely be extremely disappointed in him. Huang Ama had always wanted to pass the throne to him, and tried every means to give him experience.
, giving myself the opportunity to serve the public with meritorious services, and yet I actually used such results to repay Emperor Ama.
Hauge shed two tears as he thought about it, and actually cried.
Yibai, the leader of the Eight Banners Zhengbai Banner in Mongolia, was also in tears. He cried and said: "I led 1,600 Zhengbai Banner soldiers to enter the pass with the army, but now I am afraid there are only a few hundred soldiers left."
Yibai wiped away his tears and said loudly, "General, hurry up and collect the defeated troops. Don't let other Ming troops discover our rout and come up to stab us. These Ming troops usually don't dare to fight us, but now we are at a loss."
It’s a rout, it’s hard to tell!”
Abatai looked at the Ming army stronghold in the distance, gritted his teeth and said: "Unless we get rid of this son, it will be difficult for our Qing Dynasty not to mention taking over the Ming Dynasty, but even to protect ourselves outside the Great Wall!"
Dorgon gave a sad laugh and said with a sigh: "Get rid of him? What to get rid of? He is surrounded by 70,000 people and can't attack 10,000 of them? How to get rid of him? After this battle, Li Zhi will obviously be promoted, and his momentum will be even greater in the future.
Sheng, when our Qing soldiers saw him, they could only walk around him!"
Belledudu looked pale and murmured: "If we lose continuously to this Li Zhi, our Qing army will probably become discouraged and timid when facing this Li Zhi in the future."
Hearing this, all the Baylors looked at Li Zhi's stronghold and were speechless for a moment.
