Shang Kexi was happy that he had paid enough for the Qing Dynasty. He was shot several times by the Shun army, and the blood flowed uncontrollably, covering his saddle and boots, and finally overflowed.
The royal guards suffered even more casualties. They put out fires everywhere to fill the gap after the defeat of the Green Camp. One-third of the elite soldiers were wiped out by the Dashun Army. Most of the Dongjiang soldiers were killed or injured, and most of them were killed or injured by Wang Yifan of Zhishun.
Almost all the elite soldiers of the vassal were finished, and the strength of the vassal was gone.
Kang Dahai fled from Liaodong to Dongjiang, and experienced countless ups and downs along the way. It was not until he was accepted that he was welcomed and found a place to settle down in this world.
In front of him, the elite soldiers of King Zhishun fell down one after another, and blood spilled everywhere. Every royal guard killed by the sharp soldiers of the Shun army was a comrade who had lived with Kang Dahai day and night. How could he not be moved by it?
"Intruder!" Kang Dahai roared angrily, leaping forward with a sword raised in both hands, "Thieves should deserve to die!"
The big sword in Kang Dahai's hand was spinning like flying, dancing faster and faster. The brothers beside him also fought forward. However, in front of the army of thieves that came over like a tide, the resistance of these few people was simply too much.
It is just a small boat in the vast ocean and turbulent waves. It is not only insignificant, but also vulnerable!
"brother--!"
A Mongolian servant who had followed Shang Kexi to fight in Liaohai for many years was smashed in the head by a musket fired by the Shun army. Kang Dahai stood beside the Mongolian servant, his brains bursting all over Kang Dahai's eyes, and the explosion of the intruder's gun.
The sound passed through Kang Dahai's ears, and it seemed that even the shiny pig tail on the back of his head was trembling.
More palace guards pieced together a half-moon-shaped defense line, swarming around and protecting King Zhishun Shang Kexi who was riding a horse and shooting arrows in the middle. From the rear and on both wings, more vassal soldiers rushed to the battlefield, with infantry attacking and gunmen attacking.
The guns were fired, the crossbowmen fired arrows, and they tried their best to repel the intruders who crossed the ditch.
Qing soldiers wearing white and red cloth masks, and soldiers wearing dark blue smocks and armor. Countless people fought against each other at a face-to-face distance. The blood of enemies and comrades sprayed out, covering the whole place.
From the field of view, the battlefield was so narrow that it was difficult to swing and turn long-handled weapons. Daggers and hand axes fell to the ground one after another in the fierce battle. More people used their hands and feet to fight back, hugging what they could see in front of them.
The only enemy, then rolled into a deep trench.
Whether it is the Qing Army or the Dashun Army, at this moment, the soldiers on the front lines of the two armies are filling up the front one after another. If the casualties exceed the replacement speed, the Qing Army's front will collapse; the replacement speed exceeds the casualties.
, the major breakthrough achieved by the Dashun Army at the expense of thousands of grenadiers would be in vain.
The battle had reached a point where even the local guards had to devote all their strength to the front line. Li Jiyu was pushed forward by the crowd. He drew his sword and shouted "advance" and "attack" countless times. His voice had already become a
The gongs and drums were broken, and in the end it seemed like even blood was pouring into the vocal cords.
"Forward! Forward! Forward!"
Li Jiyu's guard Kang Dayan also shouted beside the general. Many trumpeters with whistles around their necks and charge trumpets in their hands were killed by the Qing army. Conches, bamboo whistles and trumpets fell all over the ground. Kang Dayan
With his eyes lowered and his body lowered, he avoided the flying arrows and stray bullets fired by the Qing army on the opposite side. He quickly picked up a brass horn and played the death scream that terrified the Eight Banners Army:
Li Jiyu swung his long sword and slashed around his body several times before he steadied his feet and shouted: "...attack, attack, attack...fight forward and rush through the trench!"
More local guards from all over Henan rushed over. The crowds surged and the waves crashed onto the shore. The waves turned into turbulent waves, desperate to break down the fragile dam built by Dorgon.
The strength of the Qing army was not at a disadvantage, but Dorgon wanted to reserve some troops to defend Xuzhou City. The defenders launched an internal and external offensive, so the number of troops that could really be used to defend the trenches was no more than that of Dashun's army.
went.
And those green soldiers are too tough to fight!
Even the palace guards who were still happy complained. The result of their desperate fighting was that a large number of green soldiers took advantage of the gaps in the battle line to consolidate. The trenches in more areas had been breached, and even in some areas,
On this section of the road, the Dashun army did not experience any fighting at all. They all set up long ladders. The intruders rushed in and occupied the earthen wall built by the Qing army. They fired bullets from high up.
At this critical moment, more soldiers from the army have already crossed the ditch. Some have set up long ladders, and some have used small cannons to blow up the earthen walls. If the Green Camp soldiers calmly respond to the battle, it will be gratifying to rely on the military commander Kong Youde to build a stronghold.
If they launch a counterattack with a strong defense line, Dashunkou may only leave many corpses behind, and he feels regret for his excessive assault and penetration.
However, more Green Camp soldiers dropped their weapons in panic and fled. Some even cut off their braids, knelt on the ground, and surrendered in front of the intruders.
King Zhishun sent troops, as well as Bohe Tuo and Nikan led their troops to defend the area where the deadly battle was fought. The corpses of both the enemy and our troops were piled up in several layers, with the corpses lying on top of each other, and their buns and braids tangled together.
It's to the point where they can't tell you from me. But the green battalions simply can't do that. No matter how solid the defense line is, it requires brave and calm defenders to exert its power.
Along with the two flanks of the battle line, all Shang Kexi, Bo Hetuo, Nikan and others could not encourage the army to move to the place, and large numbers of green battalion soldiers continued to retreat and were defeated. The Dashun army always insisted on advancing, and they were repelled in large numbers.
, then another group came in, advancing again and again, retreating again, advancing again, never leaving any chance for the enemy to breathe.
Shang Kexi suffered more and more arrow wounds and gunshot wounds, and the number of palace guards became less and less. He ordered Wu Zhenhachao to bring in a few cannons and push them up the slope behind the earth wall to help in the battle. Number of gunners
There was a serious shortage, so Shang Kexi had to temporarily recruit some green soldiers to make up the number. This greatly reduced the accuracy of the artillery fire, and even a few rounds of light cannon shells could not do much damage.
The fighting on both sides of the trench became more intense. The Dashun Army's attack was very methodical. They concentrated their forces and selected several breakthrough points to attack. As soon as one was successful, someone would immediately set up the long ladder, and there were also special
The artillerymen of the battalion launched small and medium-sized red barbarian cannons to destroy the roadblocks set up by the Qing army.
Faced with the smooth offensive of the Dashun Army, Shang Kexi had no choice but to stay stationed in one place. He moved around with his subordinate officers and royal guards, and saw the fierce battles, and saw the severely defeated defense line of the Green Camp soldiers.
He brought in artillery to support the battle, and personally went into battle to kill the enemy, inspiring the courage of the soldiers and bravely rescuing them.
The morale of the Qing army barely recovered. The archers fired arrows as soon as they found the target, and then the gunners and gunners opened fire. Even if the green camp soldiers did not dare to come forward and fight hand-to-hand with the old soldiers of the Dashun army, they could hide and
It's not a problem to put some bows, arrows and bullets in the rear.
Kang Dahai was breathing heavily. Like the other remaining palace guards, he was seriously injured and his physical strength was exhausted to the extreme.
"Prince Regent... Why hasn't Prince Regent sent reinforcements to replace us? Your Majesty, if we continue to fight like this, all the vassal soldiers will be wiped out!"
The guards of the palace are all looking forward to Dorgon's reinforcements, but Dorgon has held the most elite white-armored soldiers tightly in his hands, and has not yet sent anyone to take turns.
Shang Kexi knew that Dorgon was waiting for Dashun Army's reserve team to enter the battlefield first. He had no choice but to maintain the morale of the army, so he could only say:
"Bo Hetuo and Nikan are also fighting on the front line! Look, aren't these Baylor, County Kings, and Princes of the Qing Dynasty the same as you? They are all fighting hand-to-hand!
The princes of the Qing Dynasty are all fighting on the battlefield. Where are the princes of the Ming Dynasty? Where are the princes of Dashun? I can’t see them! They can’t even see you who are working hard in front of the army!
That’s why you follow me and eat the royal food of the Qing Dynasty, so this battle should be won by me, the Qing Dynasty!”
