Chapter 607 Dodo's obsession

Outside Xiangcheng, a large camp of the Qing army spread for more than ten miles, and the military tents like tombs were scattered all over the field.

At the gate of the camp, Shang Kexi led a group of Qing army generals looking forward to it, looking south from time to time.

Everyone waited for a long time, and suddenly felt the ground tremble, and after a while, a black line appeared in the sky.

"My lord, here we come!" Shang Kexi said in surprise, pointing to the distance.

Needless to say, Shang Kexi has already seen the silhouette of the Qing army appearing in the distance.

They were just a black line at first, and then extended to both sides, first one cavalry, then two cavalry, instantly turned into countless cavalry, rushing towards the north.

The black line quickly became thicker and longer, and finally became a carpet covering the ground.

On the dilapidated city of Xiangcheng in the distance, a half-burned flag fluttered stubbornly. Wu Shizhao leaned on the wall and looked at the cavalry in the distance with a dignified expression. Make people feel fear.

"General, how many cavalry troops and horses are there here?" The general on the top of the city swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his face full of panic.

Looking around, the horse army of the Qing army could not be seen at a glance. There may be 50 to [-] horses, with more than [-] horses galloping in the wilderness, and their power is no less than [-] million infantry.

At this moment, "black clouds overwhelm the city and want to destroy it" is not enough to describe the shock of the defenders by the flood-like horse army.

Wu Shizhao's face was gloomy, and he slammed his fist on the top of the wall, "No matter how many Tartars come, they will smash their heads and bleed."

At this time, in front of the gate of the Qing military camp, Shang Kexi and others had already rode up to greet him, like a stream, throwing itself into the rolling raging sea.

Among the large Qing cavalry army, Doduo, surrounded by Baijiazhen Manchurians, broke away from the large cavalry and rushed to Shang Kexi's camp, while the rest of the tens of thousands of horse troops bypassed Shang Kexi's camp and continued to gallop north.

"My lord!" Shang Kexi, not far from Duoduo, first reined in his horse and saluted.

Duoduo also reined in his horse, and seemed to be in good spirits, "King Zhishun, is there any news about Gao Manzi!"

Shang Kexi said sadly: "There is no new news, I just know that King Huaishun was defeated by Gao Manzi, and the army retreated into Luoyang."

Duoduo nodded, and then sneered, "Gao Manzi really likes to make surprises. I thought he would rush to the south of Henan without stopping, but he came out of Tongguan and wanted to go to the north of Henan to outflank the king. It's just a pity, let him No matter how ingenious, the moves are extravagant, and in front of this king's absolute strength, he can only kneel down to this king."

Duoduo entered southern Henan, captured the fifteenth city of Gaoyihuan, and killed nearly 3 Wei soldiers, several generals, and he was too lazy to count the casualties of the militia and the common people.

Now that the Qing army basically occupies the Runing Mansion, it is only a short shot to invade Nanyang. It can be said that there is a bad breath in Duoduo's heart.

When Duoduo received the news from Geng Zhongming and knew that Gao Yihuan had left Tongguan, he just sneered. When he received the news of Geng Zhongming's defeat in Luoyang two days later, he was indeed a little surprised, but he was not panicked.

In Duo Duo's view, Gao Yihuan is mainly scheming and tricky, and he is very difficult to deal with.

But once he judged his intentions, he was just like a clown.

When Duoduo learned that Gao Yihuan did not go to Wuguan, the people in Wuguan were just bluffing, and Gao Yihuan's main force went to Tongguan to enter Northern Henan, he knew what shit Gao Yihuan was going to do.

This guy must come up with a surprise, outflank his flanks, or burn his food and supplies to force him to retreat.

Gao Manzi also knew that he couldn't defeat himself head-on, so only in this way could Gao Manzi escape from the overwhelming Qing Dynasty.

It's just that when Duoduo received the first letter, he was already ready and began to move his troops northward, ready to attack Gao Yihuan head-on. Gao Yihuan might not have the chance to outflank him.

Shang Kexi saw that Duoduo was quite confident, but he was still a little startled by Gao Yihuan's ability to quickly defeat Geng Zhongming. The small square formation formed a large formation, which not only blocked the impact of the horse army, but also caused heavy losses to the horse army. One was Gao Yihuan's firecrackers. The firecrackers in their hands were fast-firing, powerful, Armor is far away, and three volleys will directly destroy King Huaishun's former army. These are all new things, and the prince must guard against them."

No wonder Gao Yihuan was so arrogant, he dared to come out of Tongguan to outflank him, so it turned out that he had something to rely on!

Duoduo frowned slightly when he heard the words, and touched his jaw. He was a little unconvinced. What kind of formation could block the cavalry's charge, and what kind of blunderbuss could defeat Geng Zhongming with three salvos.

However, Gao Yihuan really likes to do some strange tricks, and has invented a lot of new gadgets, and every time a new gadget appears, he can almost beat Daqing by mistake.

The improved Zhentianlei that appeared earlier, and the field copper cannon that appeared later, were all like this, allowing him to take advantage of it.

Now, only Guan Ningjun and Geng Zhongming have seen the flintlock gun and the hollow formation. Duoduo has not had the chance to try it himself. He is a little unconvinced, but past experience tells him that he still needs to be vigilant.

Duoduo groaned for a while, "King Zhishun, you mobilize [-] troops to go north with me."

Duoduo has been in battle for a long time and has rich experience in battle. No matter what new tricks Gao Yihuan comes up with, some basic things will definitely not change.

A formation that restrains the cavalry cannot restrain the infantry, and it is also difficult to restrain the cavalry if it restrains the infantry.

It is impossible to have a one-size-fits-all formation and one-size-fits-all arms on the battlefield. Otherwise, everyone will be the same, and the war will be meaningless. Just compare the population and the strength of the troops.

In order to maneuver quickly, Duduo brought horse troops instead of infantry.

After hearing Shang Kexi's words, he was also a little afraid of Gao Yihuan's new tricks, so he decided to transfer some infantry to accompany him.

Shang Kexi said: "My lord, if 2 people are taken away, then the humble official can only suspend the attack on Xiangcheng."

Duoduo frowned, and still said: "It's okay to stop first. If Gao Yihuan can be destroyed, Henan and Guanzhong will surrender without a fight! This king will take a step first, and you will come to Xuzhou after preparing. There is Gao Yihuan will attack Xuzhou in the place where the king's military resources are concentrated."

Duoduo has always wanted to fight against Gao Yihuan and have a hearty field battle in the wilderness.

It's just that Gao Yihuan doesn't meet his expectations every time. This time should be the fifth time. If Gao Yihuan doesn't come again, it's a bit too much.Therefore, Duoduo predicted that the wish would come true, and there was no reason to be unlucky all the time.

At this time, after Duoduo finished speaking, he pulled out his horse and went north.

The Wei army on the city couldn't help but look puzzled when they saw that the Qing army did not stay behind the city like a tidal wave.

Wu Shizhao clenched his hands tightly, his face was very ugly, but at this moment, a soldier ran up to the top of the wall, looked around, and immediately ran over when he saw him, whispering something in his ear, Wu Shizhao's eyes lit up immediately a~
