At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

"Pass this down, the entire army is on alert and evacuation is on hold!" Donnie shouted and issued his military order.

The evacuation is imminent, but since the two Nikan generals, Zhao Decai and Zhang Guangen, have defected.

Then you must not act rashly!

Otherwise, if the Western thieves attack in the dark night, I'm afraid it will be a disastrous defeat in chaos!

In the open space dozens of miles away from the camps of both sides, fire dragons appeared one after another.

"Fire the arrow!" a Qing army deputy general shouted.

The surrounding Qing cavalry quickly shot and killed the soldiers of Zhao and Zhang.

The infantry that fell behind in the chaos quickly dispersed, discarding the torches in their hands and dispersed.

As the infantry collapsed, more than a hundred cavalry from Zhao and Zhang appeared in front of the Qing army.

"Extinguish the torches and break out!" Zhao Decai shouted and dropped his torch.

In an instant, all the hundreds of cavalrymen abandoned their torches and hid in the darkness.

A large number of Qing cavalrymen held torches and searched continuously in the dark night, but in this vast dark night, how could they possibly pursue them all.

"Vice President, retreat. We will go further to Sun Kewang's camp. We have already done justice to Duny by killing these traitors. If we continue to pursue them, we may lead to Zhang Sheng if we are not careful!" A Qing army general raised his hand and said.

"Zhang Sheng!" The deputy general took a breath.

Zhang Sheng had already become famous after the victory in Guilin, and now he killed Wang Fuchen in Baoqing.

This tough guy is not easy to mess with.

"Deputy General, we can't kill all the Western bandits by surrendering our troops anyway. Sun Kewang must know about our army's evacuation. We'll stop as soon as possible. We'll just cut off the heads of these Western bandits and give Doni an explanation." Another person said. The famous ginseng general also spoke to persuade.

"Okay, we have tried our best to be worthy of the Qing Dynasty." The deputy general showed an expression of clear conscience.

The Qing cavalry quickly stopped chasing in the dark night and returned as a whole.

Just as the Qing army was withdrawing, a fire dragon appeared in front of everyone. It was obvious that the movement in the dark night alerted the Qianqian army.

Sun Kewang's cavalry came out of camp to investigate the situation.

"What a danger! Fortunately, I evacuated quickly!" The deputy general wiped a cold sweat upon seeing this and was very happy.

He did not bring many troops with him on this trip to pursue Zhao Decai and Zhang Guangen.

If he bumped into the Qianqian Army, it would be a disaster!

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" the deputy general ordered. The pursuing Qing cavalry retreated quickly.

It’s okay to let the green camp fight, and it’s not impossible to let the green camp fight tooth and nail.

But letting Green Camp consciously fight without the supervision of the Eight Banners is a bit overwhelming.

After all, the soldiers of the green camp worked for the Qing Dynasty in order to feed themselves as soldiers, and the officers of the green camp worked for the Qing Dynasty in order to get promoted and make a fortune.

We have wiped out the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia, but few people are willing to die for it.

The pursuing cavalry retreated, and Zhao Decai and others hid in the darkness and continued to advance towards the camp of the former army in the distance.

A fire dragon appeared in front of them, and he was overjoyed after checking the direction in which the fire dragon was traveling.

After getting closer, he saw the person's armor clearly through the firelight and let out a loud cry.

"Old brothers of Xiying! I am Zhao Decai, the younger brother of Zhao Desheng under Bai Wenxuan. Don't let go! Take me to see the king! The Tatars are running away!"

"Zhao Decai!" Guo Youming heard the shout and quickly rode in.

"Zhao Decai, it's really you!"

"It turns out to be Vice General Guo!" Zhao Decai was overjoyed and said quickly: "Take me to see the king quickly. Doni can't do anything to the king, so he is ready to run away!"

"What!" Guo Youming was shocked and quickly took Zhao Decai back to the camp.

At midnight, a large number of military generals were hurriedly summoned.

Sun Kewang was wearing pajamas and listened carefully to the narratives of Zhao Decai and Zhang Guangen.

"This is what happened to the king. The Tatars distributed dry food to my men, as much as thirty or forty kilograms. The horses in the camp were also ordered to carry heavy loads."

Zhao Decai cupped his hands and said: "This must be because the master of Duni Naihe cannot do it, and he cannot stay in Baoqing for a long time, so he is preparing to escape!"

Sun Kewang frowned after hearing this.

"Zhao Decai, what you said is true!"

"Master, I am willing to pledge my head as a guarantee! Anyway, I, Zhao Decai, am here. How can the Tatar He De ask me to die for them!" Zhao Decai swore.

"That's true." Sun Kewang nodded slightly.

People like Zhao Desheng, Zhao Decai, Ma Bao, Ma Weixing, and Gao Qilong were all relatively determined to resist the Qing Dynasty.

Historically, Ma Bao and Gao Qilong were still under Wu Sangui when they were in San Francisco.

However, Zhao Desheng, Ma Weixing and others were transferred to Fujian by the Qing government under pretexts.

Then...these old Xiying generals all turned against each other.

Brother Zhao Desheng was the first person to respond to Geng Jingzhong, Prince Geng, followed by Ma Weixing.

The nearly [-] green battalions in Fujian all followed Prince Geng and raised the flag of righteousness.

It's a pity that under the attack of Zheng Jing and Kangxi, Prince Geng failed to hold on in the end.

Later, the Zhao Desheng brothers were unwilling to surrender to the Qing Dynasty and took refuge with Zheng Jing.

As a result, the old generals of the Zheng family squeezed them out, causing the Zhao Desheng brothers to fight to the death alone in Xinghua Taiping Mountain. The officers and soldiers of the [-]th Battalion died under the noses of Zheng Jun in Xinghua City.

It is understandable for such a person to say that Sun Kewang was forced to serve the Qing army, but if he came to die for our Qing Dynasty, Sun Kewang would not believe it.

"Zhao Decai, you have repented and returned. From now on, you will not be held accountable for following Bai Wenxuan and committing rebellion."

"If what you say is true, and the military situation is so important, I can confer it as a deputy general." Sun Kewang said calmly.

"Thank you so much, Your Majesty! Thank you so much, Your Majesty!" Zhao Decai was overjoyed and kowtowed quickly.

"Zhang Guangen, your brother is a trusted general of Gu. Although he has not returned anyway, the battle of Jiaoshui has nothing to do with your brother."

"If you come back today, I can also grant you the position of deputy general." Sun Kewang said again.

"Thank you so much, General, for your great kindness!" Zhang Guangen looked ecstatic and kowtowed quickly to express his gratitude.

The current position of deputy general under Sun Kewang is not the miscellaneous things in the Yongli court.

The position of lieutenant general leads an army of thousands of people! This is great wealth!

"Zhang Sheng, Chen Jian!" Sun Ke hoped that after the reward was completed, he immediately spoke.

"General, the two of you will lead the cavalry from Xiaoqi Town and Huaqi Town to attack the Qing army with great fanfare!"

"Remember, just harass!" Sun Kewang said solemnly.

"General, I will obey your orders!" Zhang Sheng and Chen Jian said with cupped hands.

During this period, Sun Kewang reorganized the cavalry of various ministries with Shu as the core.

A large cavalry town was established with eight thousand cavalry, led by Shu general Chen Jian, and was named Hussar Town.

More than [-] cavalrymen from the two towns came out to attack and harass, which would definitely make the Qing army uneasy.

"Wang Dewang, Zhang Hu!" Sun Kewang shouted again.

"The general is here!" Wang Dewang and Zhang Hu said, cupping their hands. "You two will lead the Iron Cavalry Town and the Four Battalions as backup to support Zhang Sheng and Chen Jian!"

"Yes!" Zhang Hu and Wang Dewang handed over their hands.

"Liang Cheng!" Sun Kewang shouted again, and Liang Cheng accepted the order.

"You lead a hundred cavalry to go north overnight, notify Li Laiheng, and tell him that Gu is going to fight Duny tomorrow, and ask him to lead the cavalry to come to the rescue quickly!" Sun Kewang said solemnly.

"What, a decisive battle!" The generals in front of the army looked at each other in confusion.

Unexpectedly, the leader of his country was preparing for a decisive battle.

"Your Majesty, our army is based in Zijiang and is already in an invincible position. Why should we fight a decisive battle with the Tatars?" Liu Xuanchu said quickly.

"Our army can indeed be invincible, but Gu wants to defeat all the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners soldiers!"

Sun Kewang said solemnly: "Shunjun will arrive in five days. Three full days have passed today, and tomorrow will be the fourth day."

"If there is a decisive battle with the Tatars at this time, the Shun army should come even if they don't have infantry but cavalry."

"If our army goes out tomorrow, it has a great chance of victory!"

"But if they are huddled in the Zijiang defense line, if Doni finds an opportunity to defeat the Shun army first, or directly escapes into Ziyang Pass to feed on the Yunnan and Guizhou people and the green camp, then even if the main force of [-] Qing troops is defeated, [-] Qing troops will be defeated. The Duomanmeng Eight Banners were able to be preserved!"

"All in all, our army has a greater chance of winning than losing in tomorrow's decisive battle. Even if we lose, we still have Daying and Baoqing to rely on!"

"Even if Daying and Baoqing are lost, even the whole of Hunan is lost."

"Gu Ye can return to Guangdong and Guangxi, and wait for Doni to return north to regain Hunan. In that case, why not fight!"

As the saying goes, don't worry about winning, think about defeat first.

Now Sun Kewang's strategic advantage is huge.

It was impossible for Doni to watch him and Li Laiheng join forces and then suppress the Qing army to death.

In the current situation, Dhoni has decided to go north and fight first.

Let Shunjun take the lead... Sun Kewang is really worried.

After all, although the Shun Army has [-] elite soldiers, these elite soldiers are often short of food and pay. If they are encountered on the road, they may not be able to last even one day.

Since Shunjun couldn't hold it back, Sun Kewang had no choice but to take the initiative and bite Dhoni.

In tomorrow's battle, Sun Ke is expected to use nearly [-] troops to meet Dhoni's [-] troops.

Although Lord Sun had many new soldiers, the cavalry did not have an advantage.

But the people under Doni were not much better.

Although the Green Camp soldiers have more combat experience than Sun Kewang's new recruits, they will not sacrifice their lives for our Qing Dynasty.

Those recruited surrendered soldiers are even more useless.

In the decisive battle at this time, Sun Kewang's chance of winning may not be less than that of Doni, not to mention that when the battle starts tomorrow, the cavalry of the Shun army can come to help.

In this case, why not fight this battle?

Besides, to take a step back, even if we lose the fight, the fight will reach a second fork in the road.

But Sun Kewang's army of hundreds of thousands was not defeated so easily.

If we really lose, the worst we can do is gather the defeated troops and stick to the camp and Baoqing.

Taking a step back, even if Daying and Baoqing cannot be defended, and even the whole of Hunan is lost, what will happen?

It was already April. By the time Doni had captured Changsha, summer had arrived, and news of Zheng Chenggong's Northern Expedition had also arrived.

Dhoni's army has been on the campaign for a year, and there is another crisis in Jiangnan.

So what else? It’s impossible to go to Guangdong and Guangxi, right?

Once Dhoni's main force retreats, Sun Kewang can just backhand and regain Hunan.

All in all, as long as nothing happens to Sun Guozhu himself, Sun Guozhu of the Qing Dynasty can be killed by him!

What is strategic advantage? This is called strategic advantage!

Sun Kewang can be defeated, he can lose Baoqing, he can lose Changsha, but Dhoni has no room for error at all!

Tomorrow's decisive battle not only has a high chance of victory, but also uses the Manchu and Mongolian roots of the Qing Dynasty to fight with the front army.

With such a good deal, Sun Kewang decided to do it!

"Master, you should be careful." Liu Xuanchu continued to persuade.

"Mr. Mao Xia, there is no need to say any more. Doni wants to win Hunan, and Gu Ye wants to fight all the Qing Dynasty's Manchu and Mongolian capital."

"If the army continues to hold on, if Doni takes the risk to attack the Shun army first, or directly retreats to western Hunan, he will take his Manchu and Mongolian base to kill horses for food or even feed on human flesh, and return to Shaanxi and Gansu."

"After the more than [-] Manchu and Mongolian troops were saved, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties tried their best to reorganize the [-]-strong army."

"Our army has a great chance of winning in the decisive battle tomorrow. Even if we lose, as long as we are not completely defeated, it will not affect the overall situation."

Sun Kewang smiled and said: "As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. I want to expel the Tartars and rebuild China."

"If you don't even dare to take this risk, how can you convince the public?"

As soon as this statement came out, all the generals in front of the army agreed.

When Liu Xuanchu heard this, he said nothing.

"Let all towns gather together. The supplies in Daying and Baoqing City are wide open, and there are enough meat tubes. We will go out to camp early tomorrow morning for a decisive battle!" Sun Kewang shouted and finalized the strategy for the decisive battle.

"Please rest assured, Lord, we will sacrifice our lives to help the Lord build an immortal career!"

That night, Sun Kewang's cavalry continued to harass the Qing army's camp, and the Qing army, under the command of Doni, stood ready for fear that Sun Kewang's main force would attack.

The cavalry on both sides went back and forth in the dark night, and after a whole night of tossing, they finally ended the fight and retreated.

However, when the sun rose, countless infantrymen from the front army swarmed out with dried meat and drinking water after a good meal, and lined up in front of the camp, looking ready for a decisive battle.

"What! Sun Kewang actually dares to have an upright decisive battle with our army in the wild!" Donnie said in disbelief as he looked at everything in front of him.

"Your Majesty, what a good opportunity!" Luo Keduo said quickly: "If Thief Sun relies on the camp, it will be difficult for our army to break through!"

"But in this kind of upright field battle, our army will definitely win!"

"That's right!" Zhao Butai also said quickly: "If Thief Sun persists, there will be nothing we can do!"

"But he dares to go out to fight in the field. Our army will definitely win!"

Donnie nodded slightly when he heard this.

"However, at this moment Bashan said quickly: "Your Majesty, our army was originally preparing to go north to evacuate last night, but we thought that the Western Bandits would send troops to cause chaos! An opportunity wasted! "

"And Sun Kewang actually took the initiative to fight today. Presumably Shun thief is not far from here, otherwise Sun thief would be uncharacteristic of himself!"

As soon as these words came out, all the generals frowned.

"Send more sentries and search a hundred miles north!" Duny quickly ordered.

Many Qing army sentries quickly mounted their horses and headed north to search for traces of the Shun army.

"Your Highness, let's fight. Even if the traitors come, we, the Heavenly Soldiers of the Eight Banners, have nothing to fear!" Zhao Butai handed over his hand and begged for orders.

At this point, he has no way out. After experiencing the defeat at Mopanshan, Zhao Butai's only way out is to defeat Sun Kewang to make amends.

And this is the only way for most Eight Banners generals.

"Let the soldiers go out of camp and form an array. If the traitors haven't arrived yet, then attack quickly and fiercely to defeat Sun Kewang first!" Donnie gritted his teeth.
