Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 329 You might as well learn from the Ming army's style of play

Prince Azig of England and King Zhishun Shang Kexi fled back to the city with the remnants of their defeated generals and ordered them to stick to the city.

The sky is already gray and bright, the surrounding night sky is light and clear, and people's sight is getting wider and wider.

It took half a night for the three charges, plus they started preparations at the second watch, Azig and the others almost didn't sleep that night.

Now it is not bad to count the number of people. There were more than 7 horses when they went there, and more than half of them came back.

However, his elite of the Eight Banners has now really become a miscellaneous brand of the Eight Banners. Not only are they of mixed race, there are purebred Manchu Tartars, but also Mongols and Han people. Their faces were bloodstained, some of them looked like they came out of a stove pit, some of them were slightly wounded, they were either limping a little, or grinning, they were completely defeated and embarrassed.

Monk Azige is delighted that the tired faces of the two princes of the Qing court were full of frustration. Looking at the iron cavalry of the Ming army chasing to the moat outside the city, the team was not huge, at most no more than 2000 people (the imperial camp) Of course there were casualties of iron cavalry), but although there were not many people and horses, everyone, like a tiger and a dragon, stayed by the moat for a while.

Monk Azige is gratified at this moment, not only feels uncomfortable, but also feels aggrieved. He feels that this battle is fought like a useless person.

Different from the glory of winning all battles and invincible battles before, there has never been such a disastrous defeat, which is simply a shame since the founding of the Qing Dynasty!

How could this be?The two princes sighed and shook their heads, complaining that the sky has no eyes, and that God is unfair.

"I don't know how the battle is going on Wang Duoduo's side?" Azige seemed to be talking to himself with a glimmer of hope.

"Do you still need to ask, the lord? I guess it's more ominous than good. Otherwise, would the false emperor's troops still have time to chase us to the bottom of the city?" Shang Kexi is King Zhishun after all, and he has more ditches in his mind than Azig.

"Hmm..." Azig felt reasonable, and he let out a long snort, feeling speechless.

Sure enough, at this time, scouts or spies from the Qing army came to report. Prince Yu was also defeated. camp.

As expected of brothers, they are in step even when they lose battles!
"It's really annoying!" Azig slammed his palm on the wall brick of the crenel, making a crisp sound, and for the first time, the brash man let out his anger after breaking his halberd.

Shang Kexi also felt that the future was bleak, but he was King Zhishun after all, and he quickly thought of a question from tonight's battle, and said to Azig: "My lord, don't be discouraged, although we returned without success this time, but The pseudo-emperor's guns never fired. According to Xiao Wang's guess, they must be running out of ammunition. Otherwise, it is impossible for the Ming army to fight without artillery fire, and it is impossible to just camp outside Luoyang without attacking. of the city."

"My lord's words are justified." Azig nodded, encouraging him to continue,

"Killing one thousand enemies will cost us eight hundred. Although we suffered heavy casualties, the puppet emperor's men and horses must have suffered heavy casualties. That is to say, there are fewer troops in the Ming camp now, and there is no King Qin's army coming nearby. In this way, after we rest our troops, we can go out of the city for a second decisive battle with the false emperor, which is also called a surprise. This time we change our style of play, might as well learn from the Ming army. Lord Duoduo brought twenty red cannons this time , We also have a cannon fire in our city, first concentrate the cannon fire to bombard the camp of the Ming army, and then attack in, the puppet emperor will definitely be defeated."

"Be careful, just follow the prince." Azig's spirit immediately came up again. After the two princes went down to the city, they took a rest, and Aji stayed behind to defend the city. Shang Kexi worked tirelessly to represent Azi and led the guards quietly. Di went out of the city and went around to Duoduo's camp to negotiate the bombardment of the Ming camp.

Prince Yu Duoduo led the remnants of the defeated generals and ran out for more than ten miles in one breath, to see if the white-armed soldiers were not chasing after him, he reined in his horse and pulled in the team.

Counting the number of people, the 8000 Qing army lost more than [-] in this battle, and the Mongolian generals Tieshu and Zamur were also lost. Including the injured, there are still more than [-] people left. Although the strength is still there, the morale is frustrated. Fighting is mainly based on morale.

And at this time they got a report that Prince Azig of England didn't succeed. They met Zhu Yousong's imperial cavalry and organized three charges, all of which ended in failure. They just couldn't break through the defense line of the imperial camp and white soldiers. In addition, there was an ambush inside the wall, and Zhu Yousong set them up in a camp-within-camp formation.

Now Azig's troops have been chased by Zhu Yousong's imperial cavalry, and they are defeated to Luoyang.

Duoduo was stunned, he had heard about the power of the white-armed soldiers before, and the prestige created as early as the Qin Liangyu era decades ago, and today he has personally experienced it, the reputation is indeed well-deserved.

But Zhu Yousong's imperial camp is really so powerful?Everyone can count as ten, and the [-] or [-] Qing troops can't attack the defense line of [-] cavalry?

It seems that the strength of the false emperor was underestimated, and a strategy to defeat the enemy had to be discussed separately.

Therefore, Duoduo had to admit the failure of this operation, and returned to the Baibaishang camp with the defeated soldiers.

On the same day, Zhishun Wang Shang Kexi brought his guards to the Baishagang barracks.

Duoduo, Prince Yu, Geng Zhongming, King Huaishun, Shang Kexi, King Zhishun, the three kings of the Qing court gathered in Baishagang to analyze the reasons for this failure, and quickly reached an agreement. From Jiujiang to Wuchang and then to Luoyang, after so many battles, Which battle does not need to run away?It must be that the ammunition is exhausted now, otherwise it is impossible for the Ming army not to fire.

Shang Kexi's opinion was quickly adopted. Since he couldn't beat Zhu Yousong's white soldiers and imperial cavalry, he had to use the red barbarian cannon.

The plan was agreed upon, and the time for bombarding the Ming army camp was fixed. This time, it was still a pincer attack from the north and the south. With the advantage of artillery fire, they bombarded the Ming army camp, and then they attacked from the north and south, and rushed into the Ming army camp. Zhu You Song can be captured in one battle.

Two days later, Duoduo put the twenty Hongyi cannons in formation, and Azig also pulled all the cannons out of Luoyang City.

There were more than 1 Qing troops in Luoyang City and more than [-] Qing troops in Baishagang. Together, the total number of Qing troops exceeded [-], and they were all ready at this time.

Just when Duoduo and Azig were about to give the order to fire, the scouts came to report, and the envoys of the Ming camp came.
