Ming Dynasty: Summoning game players at the beginning

Chapter 224 How many beatings does it take to become a corner?

There was a mixture of warm liquid and soil in the mouth, and it was full of blood and bitter taste.

The powerful impact knocked him unconscious. When he woke up from the pain of continuous slaps, he was shocked to find that several burly men were surrounding him.

There was something wooden beneath me that was creaking, shaking left and right, and tumbling up and down.

"You're awake. The operation was successful. Mother and child are safe."

"?" As a Manchu noble, Ajige, like other princes, studied both Manchu and Chinese and could fully understand what the enemy was saying.

A strong man was holding a coarse cloth package in his arms. He was teasing the "child" in the package with his hands while turning sideways to show Ajige.

When Ajige looked closely, he saw that it was a head wearing a helmet.

"A mother should also hug her child..."

As the strong man said this, he handed the "child" to Ajige's arms, and the latter was frightened and exclaimed, "Ahhh!"

The head resting on his chest was bleeding. Ajige was terrified and reached for the knife at his waist.

But his arms and legs were unable to move, and he realized that he was tied up like a caterpillar about to emerge as a butterfly.

His armor, helmet, and boots were all stripped off, leaving him with only a single piece of clothing to protect him from the cold wind in southern Liaoning.

He himself was captured by the enemy soldiers and placed on a galloping mule cart, where he could only squeeze between two rows of strong men in an extremely uncomfortable state.

The mule cart was surrounded by the sounds of enemy chariots and horses. He could not see his surroundings and could only predict that he was being sent to the enemy camp.

Ajige knew that the enemy must have other intentions for not killing him immediately. He immediately struggled and twisted his body, yelling, "Let me go! Let me go! Otherwise, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty will personally lead 100,000 cavalry south and trample you all into dust!"

"This guy is so noisy, let's buy him something to drink." The speaker picked up a bunch of smelly socks and stuffed them into Ajige's mouth.

"good idea!"

The people in the car turned Ajige's body around so that his head was facing the rear of the car, and opened the tailgate to prevent the "drinks" from piling up in the car.

Almost all the players skillfully untied their belts, revealing their "harmonious" mushrooms, and sprayed light yellow liquid towards the "goal", making a sizzling sound.

Ajige had a smelly sock stuffed in his mouth and was humming and unable to speak clearly.

Tormented by the foul stench and the feeling of suffocation, he could only close his eyes and twist his head to avoid the water attacks.

A stream of light yellow water that deviated from the target and landed on the ground attracted everyone's attention. How could someone pee so far?
The competitive spirit in the players' hearts quietly rises.

Although no one said anything, they were secretly competing with each other and were determined to win the pee distance competition.

In the end, the strong man who "delivered the baby" won the victory and won the first place in the water spraying competition.

"Hahaha!" The burly man put his hands on his hips and laughed, looking proud that no one else could do it better than him.

"Everyone, attention! Enemy cavalry is coming! Put up your signs!"

"okay!"

Hearing the sound, the brothers helped Ajige to kneel down and held down his shoulders and legs tightly.

Even though this person's body was covered in the smell of urine, the "Zhu Bajie" in the same car would not dislike the "pig's trotter".

"Look out, wild boarskin! Your prince is here! Don't be rude!"

Shouts in Chinese and Mongolian were heard alternately, and Ajige's face appeared. The Manchu and Han infantry and cavalry coming towards them did not know what to do for a moment.

This is the same as when the defenders in the Jingnan Campaign took out Zhu Yuanzhang's tablet and placed it on the top of the city wall, and the Prince of Yan did not dare to attack the city.

What's more, that was just a "nominal" tablet, while the one on the mule cart was the real and living Manchu prince Ajige.

Ajige really wanted to shout and kill these Han dogs, but his mouth was stuffed with smelly cloth and he could not utter a complete word. Instead, his intermittent humming sounds were taken by the Eight Banners soldiers as orders to "retreat".

Even if the loyal guards refused to retreat and blocked the path of the chariot, they would be shot dead by the musketeers on the chariot and swept away by the galloping horses.

"The Manchu prince is here, why don't you retreat immediately!"

With their "golden medal of immunity from death" on their shoulders, the special forces successfully passed through the Tartar blockade and returned to their own camp.

The high-profile publicity along the way almost made it known to both the enemy and us that a prince commander of the Qing Dynasty had been captured alive.

This is how a large army would attack the enemy general directly and then return to their own camp safely, tearing the enemy's face and dignity into pieces and crushing them on the ground.

Geng Zhongming watched helplessly as Ajige was captured and thrown into the mule cart formation, while Duoduo's troops were driven back several miles by hundreds of desperate Beiwei soldiers. Seeing that the enemy held important hostages, their own side would only hesitate to fight.

What's more, after several setbacks, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and the commander was captured alive, so they had no fighting spirit left.

Seeing that Duoduo and Kong Youde's troops retreated one after another, Geng Zhongming also ordered the entire army to retreat.

If they retreat to a distance of 10 to 20 miles and then reunite one after another, they can still preserve most of their manpower and retreat to Gaizhou to wait for help.

However, Duo and Kong had more cavalry than the others, and their retreat was highly mobile. Their escape routes were all determined by their war horses, so they would not squeeze in and harm friendly horses.

The infantry under Geng Zhongming's temporary command was in trouble.

When people are in a panic environment, their survival instinct will be stimulated, and their minds will be filled with the thought "I would rather die than let my friends die". As long as they run faster than their teammates, they can survive.

The soldiers, from bannermen to Han soldiers and Koreans of all classes and nationalities, were all equal, all wanting nothing more than to escape. Even those who tried to retreat steadily were overwhelmed by these second-rate servants.

Some people snatched idle horses, some pushed down friendly soldiers, causing them to trip more people, and some risked going into the nearby hills...

The retreat order of more than 10,000 infantrymen was completely destroyed, and even the wounded soldiers were left unattended and had no one to take care of them. They were left behind and were caught up and killed by the Ming army.

Geng Zhongming didn't care about the overall situation and led his personal soldiers to escape on horseback. If he hesitated for a moment, he would not be able to escape even if the Ming army caught up with him.

"Look, the enemy is retreating!"

Lou Ting, who had just killed a Tartar with his sword, suddenly heard his personal guards calling him. He looked towards the northwest and northeast, and saw that all the Tartar infantry and cavalry had gathered and fled.

The auxiliary soldiers who still had strength left got out of the mule carts and followed and chased the enemy infantry.

They won this battle!

Although the battle was extremely difficult, the Tatars broke through the mule cart formation at one point, and even General Deng Laiyang personally drew his sword to fight, but was finally exhausted and died in battle. The situation was so critical that the entire army was about to collapse.

But they finally managed to hold on thanks to the reinforcements sent by the Beiwei Army.

The performance of the Beiwei Army can be described as the best "savior" in the entire battle. They defeated the enemy cavalry rushing from the northwest, held back the infantry coming from the northeast, and had enough spare time to support friendly forces, and even sent chariots to capture enemy generals alive.

If it weren't for their thousands of soldiers defending the left wing, all the Ming troops here would have been killed by the Tatar cavalry.

The Beiwei Army made great contributions in this battle and deserves the title of the No. 1 Army in Shandong and southern Liaoning!

Lou Ting couldn't believe why the Beiwei Army was so brave.

How much suffering did they endure, how many bloody battles did they fight, and how much pain and torture did they go through to become the elite soldiers they are today?
The end of the war meant that the pressure was gone, and Lou Ting's tense nerves suddenly relaxed. The afterglow of the fierce battle was still churning in his chest, and his hand holding the knife was shaking.

He had fought dozens of battles, big and small, but none of them was as dangerous as today's.

As if he had survived a disaster, his eyes were filled with tears, his heart was filled with mixed emotions, and the complex expression on his face seemed to have gone through the waxing and waning of the moon in an instant.

He fought against the Qing army many times, but each time he was defeated along with the commander-in-chief or avoided fighting.

The great Celestial Empire was beaten by a foreign barbarian nation and had no power to fight back. Since the defeat at Sarhu, the Ming Dynasty has been holding this anger for twenty years!

He was like a weathered sculpture, holding his breath for a long time before exhaling deeply.

The words stuck in my throat seemed to have been brewing for years, and the excitement and excitement burst out like a flood. "We finally won."

Today, he finally defeated these "invincible enemies" with his sword in hand, and avenged the Liao people who were enslaved and starved to death.

The 38,000 government troops defeated the 40,000 Tartar soldiers in a fair and just manner.

Including the wounded soldiers who were pursued and killed, the Eight Banners of Manchu, Mongolian and Han who were captured and beheaded, a total of 21,000 corpses were left on the ground, 3,000 Koreans who did not escape were captured, and thousands of armed baoyi.

The government army suffered moderate losses, with only 3,400 casualties, but the Beiwei army suffered "heavy casualties", with a count of as many as 2,500 dead and wounded.

You have to know that the Beiwei Army's elite soldiers and auxiliary troops only had a total of 4,900. Losing half of the soldiers in one go was a devastating blow.

However, when the military governor and the grain supervisor distributed the rations according to the number of people, they were surprised to find that there were still more than 4,000 soldiers in the Beiwei Army, and the total casualties did not exceed 300.

Civil and military officials acknowledged that the Beiwei Army did have the assistance of "enlightened masters" and that using some magic to kill the enemy was understandable, but this method of training the troops and boosting their courage was too rapid and exaggerated.

Who could transform timid civilians into brave and elite soldiers in an instant? Could the Beiwei Army really do it?
Many civil and military officials were quite curious about the Beiwei Army's methods of training and strengthening its courage, but the most urgent task at the moment was to deal with the prisoners and pursue the defeated soldiers.

The government army was divided into two factions on how to deal with the baoyi and Koreans.
