At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!
Chapter 226 The Sentinel Battle
Following Donnie's order, a large number of sentries quickly moved north for reinforcements.
The Qing army's sentinels had been searching northward a few days ago, and now, just in case, Dorney added more manpower.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of Qing troops swarmed out of the camp, lined up their troops, and prepared for a decisive battle with Sun Kewang.
"Your Majesty, at the end of this battle, I will ask you to be the vanguard!" Zhao Butai gritted his teeth and said, cupping his hands.
"Okay! If the traitors haven't arrived yet, then our army will work hard to defeat Sun Kewang first!"
"If the thief is coming, then..." Donnie frowned, thinking endlessly.
"Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, we can only turn the tide of the war for the Qing Dynasty by sinking all boats and fighting with all our might!" Gushan'er Zhenzhuoluo sighed.
As soon as these words came out, all the generals of the Eight Banners nodded.
At any time, the military will be affected by economic and political factors.
The Shun Army launched the Huaiqing Campaign, which caused both Qing armies to be attracted to itself, and northern Shaanxi and Tongguan were attacked on both sides.
This has always been criticized.
Otherwise, if Duduo went south, Li Zicheng would only have to face Azige's troops.
Of his [-] people, after surrounding Yan'an and Yulin, only more than [-] people were left.
Without Huaiqing, these more than [-] people would have collided with Li Zicheng's main force of more than [-] people.
This picture is simply too beautiful.
But this is God's perspective.
From Li Zicheng's point of view at that time, he did not know that the Qing army was divided into two groups, and that the Dashun army had been defeated in consecutive battles and had low morale.
If we don't win another battle to boost morale, I'm afraid the people in the northwest region will lose their support and everyone will think that our success is over.
So out of political considerations, Li Zicheng went to Huaiqing, and then... he went cold.
But now, out of political considerations among the Eight Banners generals in the Baoqing area, many people even think that even the Dashun Army has arrived.
He should also have a decisive battle with Sun Kewang. This is also due to political considerations, but just for his own political future.
Donnie gritted his teeth when he heard this, he had to fight no matter what.
He is the son of Duoduo, and the Dorgon brothers have never been favored by Shunzhi.
The reason why he was able to lead his troops south was because there was no one available among the princes of the Eight Banners.
Jidu was defeated by Zheng Chenggong, and the Qing Dynasty was worried about letting him lead his troops south.
Originally Prince An Yue Le was the best candidate, but Yue Le had always been valued by Shunzhi, and there were even rumors that Shunzhi intended to make him the crown prince.
If Yue Le goes south and gains military exploits, how can Xiaozhuang rest assured for the sake of his grandchildren?
So in the end we had to let Doni and Rokodo go south.
But now that Mopanshan has been defeated, if he shrinks and doesn't fight, Yungui will not be able to last long.
In the end, they could only take the Manchu and Mongolian children to kill horses for food and return to Shaanxi and Gansu through the thousands of miles of no man's land in Sichuan.
If this is the case, one can imagine what will happen to him who has always been disliked by Shunzhi!
You must know that even Gu Shanerzhen Shunzhi, who has great military exploits like He Luohui, kills him whenever he says! Lingchi is Lingchi.
I'm afraid that death in confinement will be the best ending for me!
So no matter what, this is the end, if you don't fight, you will die. If you fight, you might be able to defeat Sun Kewang and find a way out!
In this case, Dhoni can only fight!
"Okay! Both the Western Thieves and the Shun Thieves are defeated by our Qing Dynasty. Even if the two thieves join forces, what do we have to fear?"
Doni shouted: "Today we will fight to the death with the bandits in Baoqing and make immortal contributions to our Qing Dynasty!"
"Your Highness is wise!"
The generals of the Eight Banners shouted in unison, each with high morale.
drum--
Heavy drums sounded, and one hundred thousand Qing troops came out of the camp to form an array, leaving only more than ten thousand old and weak soldiers to guard the camp.
In front of the camp, ten infantrymen, Long Xiang, Hu Ben, Ying Yang, Bao Tao, Xian Deng, trapped in the formation, forward, sweep the bandits, block the bandits, and destroy the bandits, stood in tight formation, and the momentum was shocking.
The four major guard towns are the backbone, the three former army towns are the right wing, and the three towns of sweeping the bandits, destroying the bandits, and destroying the bandits are the left wing.
Zhulu Town stayed behind to guard the main camp, while Xiaoqi Town and Huqi Town took a rest in the rear.
The cavalry town surrounded Sun Kewang's Dragon Banner, and the cavalry from the four major battalions moved forward to harass.
More than [-] armored soldiers were waiting in full formation.
More than [-] troops from both sides launched the peak showdown of this era in this slightly open area west of Zijiang.
"During the Battle of Songjin, Hong Chengchou was known as the Eight General Soldiers, an army of [-], but I don't know how many of them were actually wearing armor."
"Li Zicheng's battle at Tongguan, where more than [-] Shun troops in armor faced off against [-] Qing troops, and the Battle of Fork Road, where more than [-] soldiers marched in front to face off against [-] Qing troops in Tunqi."
"In the battle of Beipanjiang, Li Dingguo used [-] soldiers of the Western Battalion to fight against Dhoni's main force."
Sun Kewang held up the telescope and said solemnly: "But in these four battles, we Han people were defeated in a daze."
"During the Battle of Songjin, Hong Chengchou's retreat was cut off, and the [-] Ming army collapsed. In the Battle of Tongguan, Li Zicheng and Duoduo fought fiercely but had to retreat in a hurry due to threats to their retreat."
"The battle at the fork in the road, I was unwilling to spend all my money to make a wedding dress for others, and the fight ended in a tailspin."
"In the Battle of Beipanjiang, the Yongli Imperial Court was unable to even supply military rations at home, causing our [-] soldiers in the Western Camp to disperse on their own!"
"Unjust! Except for Song Jin, I feel like I lost unfairly in every battle!"
In the Songjin Battle, the [-] Ming army faced off against the [-] Qing army. Except for the [-] Qing army that suppressed Dorgon and Jierhalang at the beginning, when Huang Taiji arrived, the Ming army had no chance of winning.
Apart from that, the other three decisive battles were quite unfair.
When the Battle of Huaiqing started, two groups of Qing troops forced their way to northern Shaanxi and to Tongguan.
Originally, the Shun Army had a time lag to fight because Duduo's South Route Army was temporarily rerouted. According to the original time, Azige should have arrived more than half a month earlier.
Once this happened, Li Zicheng's main force of more than [-] troops cooperated with Li Guo and Gao Yigong's [-] troops to take the initiative to attack.
In the open northern Shaanxi, it is possible to defeat Azig in a short time.
However, Azig stayed in Mongolia and extorted horses for more than [-] days.
Li Zicheng had to march quickly to Tongguan to deal with Duduo.
But in Tongguan, Li Zicheng not only could not join forces with Li Guo and Gao Yigong.
Moreover, in the narrow terrain around Tongguanna, Duduo set up a turtle formation, making Li Zicheng, like Doni now, unable to say anything.
It can be said that when the decisive battle started in Tongguan, Li Zicheng had already failed.
Therefore, King Li Chuang has really had bad luck since he entered Beijing.
First Wu Sangui switched, then Huaiqing, then Tongguan, and finally died inexplicably in Jiugong Mountain.
As for Chalukou and Beipanjiang, there is no need to say more. In short, the Qing army won in a confused way.
Now all these factors will not happen in Baoqing.
"Your Majesty, you are so worried. This is not a fork in the road, let alone Beipanjiang River!" Zhang Hu said:
"My army of more than [-] has strong soldiers and horses, and sufficient food and pay, but no one can take advantage of it."
"The king has nothing to worry about anymore!" "Zhang Hu, you are right!" Sun Kewang said solemnly: "There are problems with Beipanjiang and Tongguan, Li Dingguo and Li Zicheng's retreat."
"Now that Gu has no worries and has the help of friendly troops, if he still can't defeat the Manchu Qing, I have nothing to say." Sun Kewang spoke slowly.
The current situation is already the most favorable in the decisive battle between the Han and the Manchus.
Unlike Tongguan and Beipanjiang, Sun Kewang did not have to worry about his retreat, there was no circumvention by Azige, and there was no hindrance from the Yongli court.
Also different from the fork in the road, Sun Kewang has become the only one in Xiying, or in other words, all the forces that dissatisfied with him have disappeared.
No one else can pick his peaches.
As for Li Laiheng, the Shun Army is internally unstable and has little foundation, not to mention that the current Sun Kewang is no longer the original Sun Kewang.
Why worry about them?
That being the case, let's go to war!
"Send the order, all towns must stick to their formation, and are not allowed to take a step back. The red-coated cannons are deployed forward. If the Qing army advances, give me a hard hit!" Sun Kewang gave the order.
In the front army, more than two hundred light six-pound red-coat guns were deployed forward.
In the current Jiaqian Army, several months have passed, and the number of red-coated cannons in the army has greatly increased.
In addition to more than two hundred light six-pound redcoat cannons, more than one hundred [-]-pound and [-]-pound cannons were placed on the surrounding hills.
In addition, a large number of heavy artillery were also deployed in important towns such as Baoqing.
"Thief Sun actually has so many elite soldiers under his command!"
On another hilltop, Doni climbed up and looked into the distance, frowning as he looked at Sun Kewang's huge battle.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. In the past, the Song army was very strong with [-] soldiers and horses. Didn't they line up on the south bank of the Yellow River and trap tens of thousands of Jin troops? Do you just call the southern army prosperous?"
"But what's the result?" Luo Keduo sneered: "One drum beat by the Jin army, and the [-] Song army dispersed in a rush!"
"Sun Kewang has all new soldiers under his command. Even if the army looks good and there are many people, our Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers only need one strike to win!"
"Prince Pingjun, our army suffered losses in the previous two battles. We must not underestimate our enemy!" Bashan said solemnly.
"Batu Tong, the previous two battles were all caused by the unfavorable situation of our army!"
"In the outpost battle, Wang Fuchen underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly. Zhang Sheng's troops were numerous and powerful, and they were all elite cavalry of the Western Bandits. How could we, the Qing Dynasty, win this battle?"
"During the battle to attack the camp, the Sun thief relied on the camp to hold on, exhausting the energy of the green camp soldiers, and then made a surprise attack by the elephant soldiers, which disturbed our army's horses, so he was able to repulse our army's attack by luck."
"But now, Sun Kewang has started a battle. I, the Eight Banners, have never lost in such an upright duel!"
"I think this battle may not be another fork in the road!" Luo Keduo said plausibly.
As soon as these words came out, the generals of the Eight Banners nodded.
In their opinion, they must win this kind of upright field battle!
"Send the order to advance!" Donnie waved his hand.
The Qing army's horns sounded and flags waved.
Tens of thousands of Green Battalion infantry formed a formation and advanced.
At the same time, a large number of Qing cavalry advanced, preparing to harass Sun Kewang's infantry.
The cavalrymen of the four major guerrilla battalions were not to be outdone. They galloped one after another and started fighting with the Qing cavalry between the two military formations.
"Report!" A Qing army scout came quickly to report.
"Report to your lord, there are no intruders within a hundred miles!"
"What!" Donnie and others' hearts moved, and then they looked ecstatic.
"Sun Kewang dared to fight our army without the help of the intruders. It seems that God is helping me!" Luo Keduo laughed.
Doni also breathed a sigh of relief. If Shunjun didn't come, then his chance of winning would be greater.
How did Doni and the others know that the Shun army was marching fifty or sixty miles a day, and they were about one hundred and twenty miles away from the battlefield at this time, which could be reached in two days.
Now the Shun army was preparing to break camp and advance, and the hundred cavalry led by Liang Cheng happened to enter the middle of the Shun army and invited Li Laiheng to lead the cavalry to help!
"Send the order and ask the Green Camp soldiers to speed up and engage the Western bandits quickly!" Donnie ordered again.
The flag of the Qing army was constantly waving, releasing models.
A large number of green camp soldiers followed the order and began to approach the front army.
Sun Kewang looked around and saw tens of thousands of green battalion soldiers approaching his ten infantry towns in an orderly manner.
"Your Majesty, the Green Camp soldiers have entered the firing range of the heavy artillery."
"Fire." Two words came out of his mouth.
In an instant, the flag waved.
The eighteen-pound cannon deployed on the commanding heights was the first to roar.
With a bang, an eighteen-pound cannonball was fired and hit the Qing army's formation in a parabola.
The [-]-pound heavy artillery had an extremely long range, and it occupied the commanding heights and fired in a curved direction.
Although it was deployed to the west of Zijiang, it could still bombard the approaching Qing army formation.
With a bang, an unlucky Green Camp soldier was hit by the shell and turned into a ball of rotten flesh.
The surrounding Green Camp soldiers were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders were split apart and their souls were driven to pieces.
"Don't be chaotic, move forward! Anyone who dares to act rashly will die!" The surrounding Qing army generals quickly scolded them.
If the rebels had not received military training, they would have been frightened and dispersed as soon as the cannon was fired.
But the Green Camp is a regular army after all, so it is simply difficult to win by shelling alone.
Loud noises rang out, and green camp soldiers were constantly killed by artillery shells. Although the number was not large, it also dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Qing army.
No matter who sees his companions being smashed into mud, he will not remain indifferent.
Under the heavy artillery bombardment of the Qingqian Army, the morale of the Qing soldiers also dropped.
As the distance advanced, not only the [-]-pounder cannon, but also the [-]-pounder cannon in Sun Kewang's hand also opened fire, and soldiers from the Green Camp continued to fall.
At the same time, small groups of cavalry units from both sides continued to harass.
A cavalry unit from the front army floated in front of Zhao Liangdong's troops.
He fired a hail of arrows from his hard bow and killed some Green Camp soldiers.
The Green Camp soldiers also fought back with bows, arrows and muskets, repelling the advance cavalry.
A group of Qing cavalry also approached Longxiang Town, trying to disrupt the formation of the front army.
But with the roar of turtledoves and muskets, the Qing cavalry abandoned a batch of corpses and retreated knowingly.
In front of the phalanx, without the cooperation of other arms, the cavalry will be difficult to break through the phalanx unless it is absolutely suppressed in terms of strength.
Neither the front army nor the Qing army's small cavalry could harass the phalanxes of both sides.
So coincidentally, the cavalry from both sides began to fight against each other.
After being bombarded by artillery and harassed by cavalry, the Green Camp soldiers finally arrived in front of the infantry of the Qianqian Army.
At this time, the front army's formation was adjusted, batches of soldiers got out of the way, and the dark muzzles of the guns were aimed at the green battalion soldiers. (End of chapter)
