lied to Kangxi

Chapter 564 Yuzhu, that's too bad!

Galdan Celing knew the strength of the Qing army's muskets. Even with [-] Junggars, he did not dare to launch an attack. He just watched the Qing army's every move from a distance.

The camp of the Junggars could not stay any longer, Yu Zhu decisively ordered to retreat.

On the more than [-] four-wheeled carriages that were seized, all the bloody beef and mutton were carried.

The soldiers who dug out the Junggar lair were all smiling.

Everyone knew in their hearts that as long as they had meat supplements, the grain and fried rice they brought would be enough to last for a long time.

After leaving the burning camp of the Junggar people, Yuzhu still ordered the soldiers of the new army to line up in a hollow formation that could fight on all sides, based on the principle of being cautious and making no serious mistakes.

After reuniting with Tayong's people, Tayong blushed, knelt down in front of Yuzhu, and said in a trembling voice, "I am incompetent, and I was ambushed by the enemy. If it wasn't for the commander, you would come to rescue me personally." , almost wiped out the entire army.”

Yuzhu scanned the audience for a week, and obviously noticed that the rescued Eight Banners soldiers were all looking at him gratefully.

The Mongolian scattered cavalry and the cavalry stationed in Xi'an's Eight Banners were originally the bait thrown by Yuzhu.

What the Junggar people are best at is the harassment war that cuts off the grain road.

If you want to completely cut off the Qing army's food road, the Junggar people must annihilate the Qing army's mobile troops.

Yu Zhu simply followed his plan and deliberately sent all the mobile troops into the jaws of the Junggars.

After the Junggar people succeeded in their treachery, they neglected the defense of the camp, which gave Yuzhu an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"How many casualties?" Yuzhu didn't reprimand Taiyong, but his attitude was very gentle.

"Hey, I'm humble and incompetent, and I've lost nearly 500 soldiers and horses." Tayong fell on the ground, trembling slightly, waiting for Yu Zhu to send him off.

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhu was not only not angry, but felt that such a small loss was completely acceptable.

At the cost of less than 2000 people, 10,000+ Junggar people survived the winter hungry.

More importantly, Yuzhu captured the queen, five princesses and two princes of the Junggar people. No matter how you calculate it, it is an absolute bargain.

However, Yuzhu forcibly suppressed the satisfaction in his heart, sighed heavily, and said: "Old Tower, so many people have died for their country, I'm afraid that my family of the Eight Banners in Xi'an will have to bring filial piety to everyone."

Aware of Yu Zhu's poor language, Ta Yong was so frightened that he didn't dare to take a breath.

Yu Zhu was no ordinary General An Yuan. In his hand, he held the Baihong Knife that could kill people.

"Old Ta, you can take the blame and make meritorious deeds for the time being, everything is up to the emperor's order." Yuzhu actually has no power in the Eight Banners soldiers, and there are many benefits to letting Tayong go.

Hearing this, Ta Yong secretly heaved a sigh of relief, kowtowed his head heavily, and said with tears, "Thank you for your kindness, Commander, I am willing to work hard for him."

In officialdom, there are many punishments that seem to be beaten, but are actually lightly let go.

For example, to commit crimes and perform meritorious service is actually synonymous with not pursuing further.

If Taiyong had a strong backer in the court, who would help the old emperor and say a few solid good words, he might be dismissed and stay in office.

As we all know, being dismissed and staying in office is almost equivalent to a warning.Because, as long as you make a small contribution and someone helps you speak, you will be reinstated.

After joining forces, Yuzhu has three forces in his hands, one is the remaining 3000 Xi'an Eight Banners cavalry, the other is more than 5000 Mongolian scattered cavalry, and 3000 new troops, with a total force of more than [-] .

After rectifying the soldiers and horses, Yuzhu calmly ordered to set up a pot to cook beef and mutton!

Under Yuzhu's order, the soldiers of the new army who rushed into the camp only brought out more than 3 cattle and sheep by using four-wheeled carts and horses.

In addition, nearly a million horses, cattle and sheep in the camp of the Junggars were all burned to ashes by the raging flames.

According to the most conservative estimate, as long as the 3-plus cattle and sheep are properly salted, at least the 1 people under Yuzhu can eat them for several months.

Galdan Celing was not far away, silently monitoring every move of the Qing army.

After the Qing army set up the pot to cook the meat, the aroma of the meat floated far away along the northwest wind.

Alas, the Junggar people who could barely fill their stomachs by killing camels and horses, smelled the familiar aroma of beef and mutton, and swallowed involuntarily.

Both camels and horses can be eaten.However, the meat is too thick and can only be used to save life.

Moreover, after the old nest was taken away, the camels and horses of the Junggar people would lose one if they ate one, and there was nowhere to replenish them.

Galdan Celing is the Junggar war god who defeated the Raksha people.He naturally understood that the Qing army obviously did this on purpose.

This is roughly similar to the old movie "Battle of Huaihai". The People's Liberation Army surrounded the Guojun, steamed steamed buns, boiled white meat, and made the camp full of fragrance.

The Guojun soldiers who were so hungry that their stomachs ached couldn't stand the temptation of delicious food, so they climbed out of the trenches one after another and turned to the light.

When his subordinates were full of meat, Yuzhu decisively ordered to march towards Yili.

If Yuzhu hadn't come to rescue him, one of Tayong's Xi'an Eight Banners soldiers would have died in the Junggar Basin.

Yuzhu is not a general in a vase like a symbol, but General Anyuan, who is second only to General Fuyuan, and he is holding the white rainbow knife bestowed by the emperor.

Ta Yong didn't dare to raise any objection, who would dare to object to Yuzhu's meaning?
Realizing that Yuzhu led his troops to continue to the west, Galdan Celing broke out in a cold sweat on the spot.

If Ili, the real nest of the Junggars, was captured by Yuzhu, at least half of the 10,000+ Junggars in northern Xinjiang would not be able to survive the freezing twelfth lunar month.

"Dog tartar, you're too cunning!" Galdan Celing couldn't help but cursed.

As a more powerful Junggar God of War than Tsengarabutan, Galdan Tseling saw through Yuzhu's sinister intentions almost immediately.

Obviously, Yuzhu didn't want to return to the Hutusi Pass, but wanted to go to Yili for the winter!
The Junggars don't have many artillery pieces.

In order to confuse Yuzhu, when he was defeated last time, all the heavy artillery was thrown at the Qing army.

This so-called, reluctant to part with children, can't set up the strategy of hungry wolves.

Unexpectedly, Yuzhu not only swallowed the ten Dutch heavy artillery in one gulp, but also attacked the Junggar camp.

In fact, the total strength of the Junggar people did not suffer much loss.

However, the loss of tents, cattle, horses and sheep needed for the winter was too heavy.

From the movements of the jade pillars alone, Galdance guessed with zero sensitivity that the remaining Qing army should be extremely difficult to crack.

That's right, Galdan Ce Ling guessed it right.

Cewang Allah Butan, leading [-] main forces, successfully surrounded the Qing army camp where Niu Tai was stationed.

However, the offensive of Cewang Allah Butan was extremely unsuccessful.

When Yuzhu led the troops to attack, he gave Niu Tai the death order.One is to drag the cart out, form a circle around the interior of the camp, and then place the mother and son artillery behind the cart; the other is to stick to the camp and never leave the camp to attack.

To be honest, if Niu Tai hadn't stayed behind, Yuzhu would really be worried that the camp would be taken out.

However, Niu Tai is a guy who admits death.As long as it is Yuzhu's order, he never discounts it.

Since Niu Tai became Yu Zhu's haha ​​bead, he has done all the errands entrusted to him without deviation.

As a result, Niu Tai commanded the Eight Banners Firearms Battalion to blast back the three attacks organized by Cewang Arabutan.

The Junggar people lost thousands of people in vain, but they didn't even touch the side of the Qing army's camp. Cewang Allah Butan was really annoyed.

Tse Wang Alabutan is also an unrivaled hero. He made a plan after failing to make a plan, so he simply pretended to retreat, trying to ambush Niu Tai on the road.

However, Niu Tai didn't follow the tactics of the Junggars at all. He took Yuzhu's personal camp and sat firmly in the camp.

Someone came to ask for a fight, and Niu Tai said coldly: "The master has ordered, whoever dares to act rashly, please use the Baihong knife to cut off the dog's head."

If Niu Tai was a loner, among the Eight Banners infantry, there would definitely be unbelievers who would take the initiative to challenge his authority.

However, Yu Zhu left Niu Tai with a military camp of more than a thousand people, and Niu Tai was full of confidence.

Dissatisfied?

Shoot the bayonet, see who is afraid of whom?

At this moment, Cewang Arabutan received a report from Galdan's Ce Ling, and Yuzhu led his troops to Yili.

Obviously, the Junggar people have encountered a major problem that has not been encountered in a century.

If we concentrate our forces and attack the Qing army camp guarded by Niu Tai, according to Cewang Allah Butan's estimation, even if it is captured, there will be very few of the 7 people he led.

The situation on the battlefield is extremely obvious. There are hundreds of cannons in the camp of the Qing army. A hard attack will definitely knock off the front teeth and cause great losses.

After a night of ideological struggle, Cewang Alabtan simply gave up his plan to clear the army camp and concentrated his forces to deal with the jade pillars without artillery.

However, after the Junggar people joined forces, Yuzhu set up a solid camp near the water source and refused to leave.

When Galdan Celing saw this situation, he couldn't help but looked up to the sky and sighed: "Father Khan, Yuzhu is trying to kill us."

How many horses and camels do you have to kill every day when one hundred thousand troops join forces?
Moreover, the weather is getting colder day by day, and the cold wind is gradually biting the bone.

It is a pity that the big camp of the Junggar people was taken out by Yuzhu, and the thick tents that were enough to survive the winter were all burned to the ground by the fire.

As for Yuzhu, living in the warm tent of the Junggar people, eating the cattle and sheep raised by the Junggar people, they are not afraid of time-consuming confrontation at all.

To put it bluntly, even if he persists until next spring, Yuzhu will not die of hunger.

On the other hand, the Junggar people had no extra food, let alone thick tents. As long as the cold wind came overnight, many people would freeze to death.

Facing Yuzhu, who was as steady as an old dog, Cewang Arabutan and Galdan Celing, this pair of heroic father and son, stared helplessly.

36 counts, take the best plan!
During the retreat of the whole army, Galdan Ce said bitterly: "Father Khan, you lead the main force back to Ili. I don't believe that the tiger never takes a nap."

Tsewang Arabtan believed in his son's military command ability, so he demolished the east wall to make up for the west wall, and barely made up all kinds of supplies for 1 people to spend the winter, and asked Galdan Celing to lead troops to harass the Qing army.
