Chapter 2079 Qin Qing You Beiping Battle (3)

Chapter 2077: Battle of Qin and Qing You Beiping (3)

Huang Taiji's all-out attack failed to shake Lu Long, which was completely within Nurhachi's expectation. After all, with Lu Longsai's defensive power, it was too difficult to attack and break through with one side when he could not attack from both sides. .

If it were really that easy, the Xianbei army of 40 would not have been blocked from Lulongsai by Liu Yu's Hebei coalition forces.

"Have you ever found out the reality of the Qin army on Lulong's side?" Nurhachi asked quickly.

"It's clear, there are nearly [-] people."

Hearing the news, Nurhachi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there were only [-] people. The [-] troops of Huang Taiji and Fu Jian could still attack if casualties were not counted. If the Qin army had [-], it would be completely out of control.

"Immediately order Huang Taiji and Fu Jian to capture Lulongsai as soon as possible at all costs."

"twitter."

After giving the order, Nurhachi leaned back on his chair in a daze, full of worries about the situation on the front line.

In the battle between Qin and Qing, the total strength of the Qin army was 35, while the Qing army was 30. However, Qin Hao only used 13 troops to divide the Qing army into two, and pinned down the Qing army's [-] troops.

Now the Qing army has 17 troops left in Youbeiping, but it has to face the fierce attack of the 34 Qin army, and it is about to fall into a crisis of food shortage.

"No, we can't continue to be passive like this. We must buy time for Huang Taiji and Fu Jian." Nurhachi said to himself.

The reason why the Manchu Qing fell into complete passiveness was mainly due to the fall of Lulongsai, and the cut off of food roads and retreat routes. As long as Lulong was recaptured, although the entire crisis would not be resolved, the situation would be much better. However, you can still run.

Although Fu Jian's [-] troops are now blocked on Jieshi Road, if they make a strong attack regardless of casualties, it will only be a matter of time before they break through Qinzhai, and then they will be able to reach Lulongsai smoothly. But You Beiping's Qing army had to persist until then.

As soon as Lulongsai fell, Youbeiping's Qin army immediately launched a general attack, apparently to cope with Lulong's Qin army, and to wipe out Youbeiping's Qing army before the Qing army recaptured Lulong.

Now both the Qin army and the Qing army are racing against time, but it is clear that the Qin army has a greater advantage.

Although the Qin army is the offensive side, it has 34 troops, which is twice the strength of the Qing army as the defender, and the distribution of the Qing army's troops is extremely scattered. If there is no change, it will be defeated one by one by the Qin army sooner or later.

"The strategy of setting up 55 large camps, not giving up an inch of land, and defending layer by layer was indeed feasible before, but it is outdated now.

I thought that if the Qin army came to attack, I would rely on these big villages to weaken the strength of the Qin army little by little, and let the Qin army hit the head and bleed.

But now the strength of the Qin army is twice that of our Qing army. If our army is dispersed in this way, even if the Qin army can be weakened, the casualties of our army will not be small. This is tantamount to fighting with the Qin army.

Qin Jun can't afford to lose, but my Qing Dynasty can't afford to lose. "

Nurhachi muttered to himself.

A total of 55 villages were established by the Qing Dynasty, but seven villages were captured by the Qin army on the first day. In the next three days, although the Qin army's offensive slowed down a bit, they continued to capture Set up thirteen camps.

Now there are only 35 big camps left in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the removal of 15 strong strongholds in a row caused the Qing army to lose nearly [-] troops, of which [-] were killed in battle, [-] were captured, and the total force dropped to [-].

The situation of the Qin army on the offensive side was not much better than that of the Manchus. After breaking through 31 Manchu camps, they also suffered [-] casualties, of which [-] were surrendered troops, and the total strength dropped to [-].

This is still the case when the generals of the Qin army participated in the attack in person, otherwise the casualties of the Qin army would be even greater, which is enough to show how many casualties were caused by the attack.

If the battle continues according to this casualty ratio, the Qin army will have a maximum casualty of [-] to [-] troops, and it will be able to completely eradicate all the camps of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, thus hitting the Wuzhong and Junmi cities.

At that time, the Qin army will have 30 troops left, while the Qing army will only have [-] troops left. The gap in strength between the two sides has not narrowed, but has been further widened. The strength of the Qin army will reach three times that of the Qing army, and the isolated city How should Nurhachi resist?

Therefore, what Nurhachi has to do now is to delay as much time as possible before the Qin army approaches the city, until Huang Taiji and Fu Jian capture Lulong.

After contemplating for a long time, Nurhachi opened his mouth and gave an order: "Pass down the order, abandon the 25th Battalion, and concentrate our forces to stick to the tenth Battalion, which is the strongest."

If the troops are dispersed and waited for the Qin army to attack one battalion after another, it will only further reduce the strength of the Qing army, and it will not have much effect on delaying time.

The defenses of the 55 villages established by Nurhachi are uneven, and not all of them have strong defenses.

Those small villages with only a thousand people, or even less than a thousand people, could not delay the Qin army for a day even if all the troops were exhausted.

Therefore, it is better to just give up and concentrate our troops to defend the ten camps with the strongest defense.

Among the 55 big camps, there are more than a dozen camps built on the mountain, which are the work of Nurhachi's painstaking efforts, and their defense is far better than other big camps.

Concentrating troops to defend these ten camps may still be unable to stop the Qin army's offensive, but the effect of delaying time is definitely much better than defending 35 large villages.

The guards guarding the battalions on the front line breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Nurhachi's order to retreat.

The Qin army's offensive was too fierce, and it was impossible for their 800 people to resist. If they resisted forcefully, there would be a dead end.

Now that the Qing emperor ordered them to retreat, they were naturally eager to do so, leading the army to abandon the village overnight and retreat.

After dawn, on the side of the First Army, Long Qi led an army of [-] to attack the village, but found that the camp to be attacked was empty.

Long Qi was always cautious, fearing that this was a trap, so he first sent spies into the camp to investigate, to make sure that there were no ambushes or fire starters in the camp, and the whole army still did not enter the camp, but brought two thousand soldiers and horses into the camp to investigate.

"Brother Long, it looks like this is really an empty camp." Zhong Limei said.

Long Qi was silent for a while, then nodded, but he was extremely puzzled.

The living space of the Manchus was already narrow, and it was squeezed smaller and smaller by the Qin army. How could they voluntarily abandon this camp?
"Inform the governor immediately of the situation here, and let's move forward." Long Qie ordered.

Long Qiefei sent a letter to Bai Qi about the empty battalion, and he led the army to move forward, only to find that there was more than one empty battalion, and the next two camps turned out to be empty battalions.
