Ming Zuo

Chapter 1433 The Difficult Return Journey

"I don't have any skills, and I don't understand any major principles. I know that the Tartars ran to our Han people's land to burn, kill, and loot. The hand of the son. The master worries about the humiliation of the minister, the master humiliates the minister to death, brothers, you say, can you not take revenge?"

Holding the wine bowl, Liang Yue walked among the soldiers, his words were sonorous and powerful, everyone heard them.

He decided to attack the Qing army.

And his decision caused many people to oppose it at first.

Many people believe that both the Qing army and the national defense army should be allowed to lose and lose, and our side can benefit from it.

After all, that's what the empire did back then, which led to the disappearance of Dashun.

But Liang Yue firmly vetoed it.

Especially after the news of Xiangyang massacre came, Liang Yue insisted on going his own way.

But today, under the city of Wuguan, his words aroused the common hatred of all soldiers.

Yes, the big guys are all Han Chinese, how can we let the Tartars come and go freely, burn, kill and loot?
The Liang army occupied Wuguan and Shangzhou, blocking the retreat of the Qing army.

Wuguan has been the throat of Qin and Chu since ancient times, sandwiched between the mountains and mountains, the only way.

"Hmph, it's been a long way to the outside of the customs. What do these tartars eat and drink?"

Originally, when they learned that they had to obey Wu Sangui, all the generals in the Qing Dynasty were very angry.At this time, they were all frightened, and they became obedient.

He smiled smugly.

Knowing that the rear layout was completed, Liang Yue gave an order, and the Liang army withdrew from Wuguan in the dark.

"Hehe, who said I'm going to fight with Tartar here? Are you ready for the rest?"

This time it was a real rain of arrows, not for accuracy, but for suppression.

Strong walls and clear fields, nothing was left for the Qing army.

Liang Yue deployed seven lines of defense in front of Wuguan, dug trenches on the ground vertically and horizontally, and even introduced river water into many trenches, which cannot be passed by manpower.

"Brother, we can't continue the fight. The brothers have suffered too many casualties, and many of them are terrified."

And because the terrain is narrow, there is not much room for detours, so we can only fight dull and tough battles.

The Qing army wanted to return from Shaanxi to the outside of the pass, but there was no supply on the way, so the end can be imagined.

Three days later, Wu Sangui led an army of 11 Manchu, Han, and Mongolian troops to the foot of Wuguan City, and immediately launched an attack.

It took three days and more than [-] casualties, Wu Sangui cleared the periphery of Wuguan.

The Chahar Mongolian cavalry in the Liang army is considered the worst part of the fighting spirit.

On the contrary, under the violent bombardment of the red cannons of the Qing army, many ditches, low walls, and fortifications were smashed down, and many soldiers of the Liang army were buried in them.

"Well done. These landlords and old fortunes are the most treacherous. Back then, His Majesty lost so quickly, and it was these things that ate the inside out."

Obviously, it will definitely not be easy for the Qing army to pass by.

While delaying the Qing army, he had already dispatched troops to various parts of Shaanxi to relocate all the people and supplies and hide them properly.

Liang Yue also deployed the only [-] remaining artillery pieces on the wall of Wuguan City, and kept bombarding the attacking Qing army.

In this way, forcing him to charge forward, besides serving his life as cannon fodder, is there any other way?

Only Wu Sangui's noodles were not happy.

"Those Mongolians are a little unstable. I'm afraid that if the situation changes tomorrow, they will run away."

Azig and Duoduo are very satisfied with this progress.

It doesn't matter if there is no human habitation, even the rivers encountered are filled with dead bodies, and the wells are also filled to death.

But at this time, the insufficiency of the bronze cannon came to light.

"King Pingxi, you are the vanguard of the whole army. Wu Keshan, Nikan, Wakda, Shi Tingzhu, Ye Chen, Liu Zhiyuan, and Li Guohan are all under your command."

The Qing army also knew that the situation was urgent, and whether they could return to the outside of the customs had to be desperate.

Wu Sangui knew the situation the next morning, but he didn't smile.

Jiang Chaoyun's face was solemn, and he began to persuade Liang Yue.

Under Wu Sangui's strict order, the soldiers of the Qing army dismounted from their horses and began to attack on foot.

He didn't know that Azig and Duoduo handed over the most important battle to him. On the surface, they trusted him, but in fact they were afraid that he would find an opportunity to escape.

"The last will obey!"

The infantry must be accompanied by archers and musketeers, taking advantage of firepower to suppress the Liang army.

"Let's tell the two princes. The next journey, generals, needs to be prepared for a hard life."

The gates of the huge city of Xi'an are wide open, allowing anyone to come and go.

Of course, if they could fight, they wouldn't have been driven out by Huang Taiji from Hetao to Qinghai, and then driven out from Qinghai.

With just one look, he felt cold all over.

It turned out that Liang Yue's blocking battle at Wuguan was just a cover.

The Liang army has a terrain advantage, and the archery and muskets are not as good as the Qing army, so the Mongols simply used arrow rain to cover them in the rear.

They cut down a large amount of bamboo from the nearby mountains, weaved it into bamboo rafts, and passed it on top of the trench.

The next thing to face is Wuguanguan City.

The Qing army hurried on their way, facing the scorching sun, hot and thirsty, but they dared not drink more water.

Jiang Chaoyun was very solemn.

"This battle must be won completely and the passage opened. It is a matter of my luck. If anyone dares to do anything wrong, this king has no choice but to take his head off."

Zhao Silie also notified the unfavorable situation.

Zhao Silie finally felt relieved when he heard that he didn't have to fight hard anymore.

Azig and Duoduo didn't even think about it. Does Wu Sangui have any other options now?

Sure enough, they traveled all the way west from then on without encountering anything on the road.

Azig stared at the generals like a tiger.

But Liang Yue understood that if one part of such an important battle fails to stabilize, it is likely to become a disaster for the overall situation.

Although the shot was very accurate, the small iron ball shell lost its potential energy after rolling on the ground a few times, and the damage it caused was not too great.

Only one purpose.

Now he has become a big traitor that everyone in the world scolds, and if he falls into the hands of the empire, he will definitely end up being punished by Ming Zheng.

He made a gesture of wiping his neck, which made Liang Yue very happy.

Shi Tingzhu also fought hard, and he sent the red cannon to the front of the battle in time when three thousand civilians were exhausted.

When life and death were at stake, Wu Sangui did not save, and ordered cannons to bombard the inside and outside of Wuguan.

"Following the elder brother's order, all the people moved away. Some landlords and gentry were disobedient, and my younger brother also..."

When he was in Shanhaiguan, the empire did not accept him.

The caliber is too small, so its power is limited.

Because if you drink it up, there will be nothing left, and you will die of thirst.

If you don't lay down here, there is no way to enter Guanzhong.

Five days later, Wu Sangui rushed to the city of Xi'an.

As long as Wuguan is captured, the subsequent Shangzhou and other places will definitely not be able to stop the Qing army.

But no matter inside or outside the city, there was not a single person to be seen.

The road was covered with a layer of dust, and there were no footprints, indicating that no one had walked for a long time.

Here, it turned into a completely empty city.

Azig and Duoduo who came later were also frightened.

On the way home, is there hope?
