Ming Dynasty: Summoning game players at the beginning

Chapter 220 Damn it, he pretended to do it
The brutal Tartars came one after another, like a thick dark cloud pressing down on the country.

The barbaric Tartars are coming and they want to capture him and take him back to continue to treat him like a slave!

Feng Hanmin recalled the fear of being dominated by the Tartars for several years. His stomach reflexively churned, his back, which had been whipped, ached slightly, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

"Auxiliary soldiers and civilians, quickly retreat to Huizhou City!"

A black flag with white borders was raised high, and the Beiwei Army under its banner shouted loudly through the "loudspeaker", like a bright light lighting up in the middle of the night.

Feng Hanmin followed other auxiliary soldiers and civilians into the city, but the Beiwei Army and other government troops went against the current, and countless feet stepping on the ground passed by him.

The soldiers looked straight ahead, some were excited and ecstatic, some were serious and solemn, and some were wailing, "God bless you."

Whether they were expecting the Tartars to attack or deeply fearing their advance, the 38,000 government troops had no choice but to build human walls several miles outside the city.

Feng Hanmin finally realized that the government troops could also protect the people instead of looting and killing innocent people.

The Jiannu infantry and cavalry army stopped a few miles away, stuck exactly between two hills, able to attack forward or retreat.

"Really good..." The armored noble on horseback was quite surprised that the Ming army could remain calm, and raised his whip to point at the Ming army.

The Ming army dared to line up in the wild to meet the enemy instead of hiding in the city. Their formation also included many mule carts to form a "car camp formation."

Ajige was accustomed to the weakness of the Ming army in western Liaoning and the interior of the country. At this time, the enemy had already abandoned their friendly forces and fled secretly, while the Ming army in front of him could not move at all.

Could it be that the rumored Beiwei Army has the ability to "boost the morale of friendly forces"?

Ajige was impressed by the Ming army's firm will to fight.

Before he left, the emperor repeatedly warned him not to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly, and to be extra careful if he encountered the Beiwei Army, otherwise he would suffer a great loss.

Hauge and Dorgon, who had fought against the Black Flag Army before entering the Pass, also said the same thing. The three Han princes and dukes who accompanied the army also suggested that caution be exercised.

After all, Shang Kexi was captured alive. Although Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and Shen Zhixiang divided up Shang Kexi's remaining troops, they all felt a little sad for the other party.

However, Duoduo, who had a naughty personality, disagreed. He observed through a telescope and shouted that the Ming army had only 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers and that he could defeat them by leading the Qing cavalry. What tactics were needed?

Even if the Beiwei Army is tough and resilient, just let the Qing cavalry charge and kill them repeatedly.

Fortunately, Ajige, who is relatively calm, is the head coach.

He decided to send people to persuade them to surrender. After all, the emperor had also instructed that if the Beiwei Army could be surrendered, it would be a great achievement, and the rewards would be very generous, including cattle, people, livestock, money and food.

Of course, it is important to remember that when capturing Beiwei soldiers, you must strip them of all their clothes, including their mouths and backsides, to avoid concealing suicide gunpowder.

Ajige searched through a telescope and quickly found the Beiwei Army - the more bizarre and colorful the flags in the army were, the better.

He immediately sent cavalry with flags towards the Beiwei army on the left wing.

Of course, the envoy negotiation was also a strategy of Ajige to delay time. He sent Duoduo to lead 5,000 Qing cavalry to bypass the hills on the right wing that blocked the view, and sent Kong Youde to lead 5,000 cavalry infantry to bypass the hills on the left wing.

Wait until the two cavalry units arrive at the flanks and rear of the Ming army.

He then sent infantry to attack from three sides, forcing the Ming army to flee to Fuzhou, and then surrounded it fiercely until the food in the city was exhausted and the main force of the Ming army was wiped out. The three cities in southern Liaoning would all belong to the Qing Dynasty.

Ajige had no doubt that such a strategy combining the real and the fake would succeed.

The envoy team rushed to a distance of seventy or eighty steps before they stopped. A rider who looked like a Han army civil official raised his neck to show his purpose, but his temples under his hat were shaved cleanly.

The visitors hoped that the Beiwei Army of the Ming Army would come out to meet them, as this was a matter of life and death for the Ming Army.

Zhang Xianzhong thought to himself, is this the same trick of persuading people to surrender in front of the battlefield?

He didn't want to waste any more time talking to the enemy. Who knew if the Jiannu would try to trick the enemy into beheading their generals in front of the battle line? The death of the commander-in-chief in battle was a small matter, after all, the command could be transferred to someone else instantly. But the death of the commander-in-chief in a sneak attack by the enemy would be a huge blow to morale.

As a result, other friendly forces might be defeated for hundreds of miles.

However, Huang Zilong, who was beside Zhang Xianzhong, volunteered to negotiate with the Jiannu.

Zhang Xianzhong didn't know what tricks this kid was trying to play, and the other party just gave him an expression and gesture that said "I have a good idea."

Acting, dancing, and taunting in front of the battle?

Anyway, delaying time would help other friendly forces prepare for battle, so Huang Zilong was left alone.

"Have those brothers agreed?" Huang Zilong whispered to Lu Xiaobu.

Xiao Bu just raised his hand to show that it was okay, and said, "Oh."

"Okay! It's worth the price of three meals! You two come with me to meet the Tartar envoy!"

Huang Zilong brought a riding horse, and also led Lu Xiaobu and the breakthrough expert, two of them, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, to follow on mules.

Broken Heart turned his head and looked at the hundreds of brothers, "Brothers, please watch carefully later."

“Guaranteed to hit the target!”

The act of loading ammunition seems to be engraved deep into the souls of these players, and almost every player can load a rifled flintlock rifle within 30 seconds.

They raised their muskets and aimed the black muzzles in front of them.

Faced with the Ming army's frequent loading of "bird guns", the envoy team was not panicked.

After all, they were still one or two hundred steps away from the Ming army's "bird gun" soldiers. It would be difficult for the Ming army's crudely made bird guns to shoot from fifty steps, so it was impossible to hit them.

Seeing the three Beiwei Army envoys approaching slowly until they were within three steps, the shaved Han official twirled his beard lightly, his eyes narrowed with a smile.

"Since the reigns of Wanli and Tianqi, civil unrest has broken out, the world has been in turmoil, the country has been in turmoil, and the people's lives have been in dire straits. Our Taizu raised an army with thirteen sets of iron armor, swept across Liaodong, and achieved great success. The people were fascinated and the four corners submitted to him.

The current emperor of the Qing Dynasty conquered Korea, pacified the southern desert, and subdued the Mongolian and Solonian tribes, making unparalleled achievements. He has formed a pincer attack on the Southern Dynasty and has won great victories every time he entered the country and went south.

Your Ming dynasty will not last long, but my Qing dynasty is flourishing, which is truly the will of heaven.

I see that the troops you lead are valiant and skilled in battle. Why do you so stubbornly defy the laws of nature and go against human nature? Haven't you heard the ancient saying: Those who follow Heaven prosper, those who defy it perish? Tens of thousands of Qing cavalrymen are coming in overwhelming numbers, and you are but a weak and remnant force. How can you resist our mighty might?
If you surrender, lay down your arms, and offer the three cities of Liaonan as surrender, you will still retain your title of marquis, and the army will be at peace and the people will be happy. Isn't that wonderful?"

"Hahahahaha..." Huang Zilong burst into laughter, seemingly struck by a laugh bullet. He couldn't help but slap his thighs and burst into laughter. The two henchmen behind him were also laughing so hard that they almost fell over on their horses. "I thought you were eloquent and had some profound ideas, but I didn't expect you to say such vulgar things!"

The traitor was startled and was about to speak when Huang Zilong interrupted him.

"You traitorous dog! Your ancestors were born and raised in the Ming Dynasty, yet you have betrayed them, abandoned your dignity, and willingly become a slave and running dog of the Tartars. Touch the golden rat tail on the back of your head! Even if you go to hell, you will be spitted on and cursed by your ancestors for eight generations!"

"You! I'm kind enough to give you a way out, how dare you humiliate me like this!" The Han official's face flushed red, and the fingers hanging in front of him trembled.

"Shut up! Shameless traitor, aiding and abetting the tyrant and still feeling at ease. How dare this dog traitor, who has forgotten his roots, claim to be the Lord's will in front of me? A broken-backed dog who calls himself a slave all the time dares to bark wildly in front of me! I have never seen such a shameless person!"

After Huang Zilong finished speaking, he held a small object and raised his hand to point it fiercely at the traitor. With a snap, two thin lines that were difficult to see with the naked eye flew out instantly.

The Han official seemed to be struck by some kind of magic. His whole body became stiff and powerless. He let out a loud roar of pain and fell off his horse. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.

Huang Zilong took the opportunity to put away the used stun gun.

"Ah, this..." The surrounding Jiannu cavalry were in a commotion. They had not yet reacted to what had happened, nor had they seen clearly why the traitor fell off his horse. For a moment, they did not dare to act rashly.

Did they see the Ming army envoy roar and point at the Han official, and the Han official fell off his horse and fainted?!
Both the Jiannu cavalry and the Ming army units watching the battle saw with their own eyes that "Huang Zilong" poked the envoy to death with his finger.

Did he use his words to shame the traitor so much that he died instantly, or did Huang Zilong use his magic to kill people without them being seen?

The auxiliary soldiers and civilians watching on the wall were extremely excited. It turned out that the Beiwei Army actually had a Taoist priest with great magical powers to help them!
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!"

Behind Huang Zilong, cheers from the Ming army and civilians rang out. The enthusiastic and loud shouts and cheers were like a superstar's concert.

The players all showed bright jealous expressions. Damn, they were fooled by this guy.

While the Jiannu envoy was still in shock, Huang Zilong continued to shout. He pointed to the sky with one hand and swung his forearm. With the other hand, he formed two fingers into a sword and used the most powerful Taoist magic he had learned in his life to point at the nearest Tartar cavalry: "Take my palm thunder!"

"Fire!"

In the distance, a rifled flintlock musket banged, and almost at the same time, a second, a third, a fourth...

Several Minié bullets flew across a battlefield of two or three hundred meters, either penetrating the chest and abdomen of the cavalry or blowing up the fragile legs of the horses.

Blood splattered all over the ground with the explosion, and the injured man fell off his horse and screamed.

The surviving Jiannu cavalrymen at the scene seemed to be frozen in an instant. Seeing that the Taoist priest could kill people alone without being seen, they had no time to shoot arrows and fight back.

One person reacted quickly and shouted an order at the top of his voice, "Retreat, retreat quickly!"

"Want to escape? Not that easy!" Huang Zilong raised his fingers like swords, as if he were a powerful immortal hero, and his hands could spurt out killing energy. "Take my palm thunder again, ho ho ho ho!"

As the spell was cast, several more "spells" hit the ground, splashing up mud and dust.

The horrifying noise frightened the remaining cavalrymen so much that they turned their horses and ran away, but the Taoist priest's magic seemed to have eyes and kept hitting their backs and horses' buttocks.

Objects that were imperceptible to the naked eye whizzed past them. Every terrifying scream heard by the Jiannu meant that a cavalryman had fallen off his horse, and the shrill screams stimulated the brains of every surviving cavalryman.

Even if the cavalrymen are not dead after landing, they will be accurately killed by the next "spell".

Although they tried their best to escape one or two hundred steps away, they still could not break free from the Taoist priest's spell. The sharp invisible spikes continued to hunt and kill the cavalrymen, and for a while, shrieks and screams were heard everywhere.

The Taoist magic is so terrifying!
Both the Ming army and the Jiannu felt that Taoist Huang had amazing magical powers!

You have to know that in this era there were no weapons that could accurately kill the enemy from a hundred steps away. The Jiannu ran a hundred and fifty steps and were still hit by a powerful and precise attack. What else could this killing move be but the Taoist sword energy from the Arabian Nights?
More than thirty cavalrymen were sent to negotiate, but in the end only a few survived.

The rider was clearly crossing a few miles of flat land, but it felt like he was crossing hundreds of miles of mountains, rivers and seas.

He wept bitterly as he recounted the tragic experience he had just had, almost portraying the "Taoist priest" who was in negotiation as an omnipotent immortal from heaven who could go to heaven or earth.

He could kill most of them with just one finger using magical secret techniques like palm thunder, acupoint pressing from a distance, and soul-stealing.

If they had not been quick and skilled in horsemanship, they would not have been able to deliver military intelligence to the prince.

The surviving Qing soldiers performed vividly, even recounting the details of the spells and Taoist incantations in detail, as if they were possessed by a Taoist priest.

When Ajige heard that the Ming army had invited the Taoist priest to help, and that they were killing indiscriminately and that they were even able to injure the fleeing cavalry 200 steps away, he became furious and almost drew his sword.

He gripped the hilt of his knife, pointed at the horseman on the ground and shouted, "Nonsense!"

What kind of bullshit Taoist priest is killing the enemy?
After all, Ajige was a veteran who had fought for several years. He had witnessed many victories and defeats and had heard countless excuses from his subordinates.

Some were ambushed by the enemy because they were not vigilant enough, some were defeated by the Ming army's firearms because they did not have enough fighting power, and some wanted to preserve their strength and were unwilling to fight head-on.

It was the first time that Ajige heard of using strange witchcraft to kill enemies.

"Could it be the Black Flag Army's new firearms?"

Geng Zhongming had heard the battle reports shared by Hauge and Dorgon, which mentioned that the Black Flag Army had a kind of long-range firearm that could kill people invisibly.

"That's right." Shen Zhixiang sighed. "It will be difficult for our soldiers to engage in close combat. Unfortunately, all the red cannons have been sent to attack important cities in western Liaoning. Our southern expeditionary army only has a few small field cannons. We have to get close to the enemy to kill them."

"Hmph! If the cannons are useless, then use the muskets and charge with the cavalry. Even if his Beiwei army has two thousand elite soldiers, with five of us against one of them, we can wear him down with just our teeth."

"Your Highness is right," Shen Zhixiang said. "The Beiwei Army is the bravest of the Ming army. Once their bravery is gone, the remaining Ming army will be nothing but chickens and dogs, unable to withstand a charge from the Qing cavalry."

Several Manchu and Han princes continued to discuss tactical details. Just as they were discussing whether to use the Koreans as the vanguard, they suddenly heard a horn from the Ming army in the distance.

It turned out that two Qing cavalry groups had appeared after taking a detour. They crossed the hilly paths and rushed towards the flank of the Ming army. They passed under the nose of Fuzhou and attacked directly on the right side of the Ming army.

"finally reached!"

Ajige slapped his thigh and stood up. The tactics he had imagined in his mind were half successful, and he seemed to see the emperor's reward right in front of him.

He stretched out his hand and clenched it hard towards the Beiwei Army's line, as if he wanted to eat this delicious cake completely.

The humiliation suffered on the battlefield must also be avenged!
He sent out a total of 25,000 auxiliary troops, including all the troops of Koreans and Han princes, leaving only 5,000 bannermen as reserves.

"Infantry attack! Strike hard against the Beiwei Army on the enemy's left wing. I want the name of the Beiwei Army to disappear from this world!"
