Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

On the mountain ridge behind the camp, Zhu Cijiong has been looking at the Wang tent through a telescope.

At a certain moment, the curtain of the king's tent was suddenly lifted, and a dazzling light came out from the tent, illuminating dozens of figures outside the tent at once.

Zhu Cijiong laughed out loud immediately: "Hehe, they're here."

"They're really here." Wang Fuzhi admired Zhu Cijiong so much.

It has to be said that His Royal Highness King Ding's move of "hanging the sheep and beating the drum" is a real trick.

Eh, that's not right, young master Xiaobai played hanging sheep and beating drums, and His Royal Highness Ding played barbarian girl singing and dancing.

At the same time, Wang Fuzhi was also puzzled: "How did King Ding conclude that the Horqin cavalry would march from the valley instead of the mountain ridges on both sides?"

"Xu Wuniu, tell Wang Gejian why."

While talking, Zhu Cijiong took out the short gun and pointed it at the night sky.

"Because in the previous half month, we ambushed many ambush troops on the mountain ridges on both sides of the valley. In order not to disturb our ambush troops, the Horqin people could only march along the valley."

"And you can't cavalry, you can only march on foot."

After Zhu Cijiong finished saying this, he pulled the trigger of the short blunderbuss forcefully.

"Boom!" The crisp gunshot instantly shattered the silent river valley.

Then, on the gentle slopes on both sides of the valley, fires lit up one after another, counting at first, and then quickly becoming one, until finally the whole valley was illuminated as bright as day.

It was the Ming army ambushing on the gentle slope that ignited the haystacks prepared in advance.

In the bright daylight of the fire, groups of Ming soldiers with live ammunition lined up neatly, stepped on neat steps, drove down from the gentle slopes on both sides of the valley, and surrounded the wintering camp from all directions.

In addition to teams of Ming troops, there were more North Korean troops with flintlock guns.

Zhu Cijiong also put the binoculars into his satchel, and took out the Type [-] from behind the saddle.

Not far behind Zhu Cijiong, more than 2000 cavalry also raised their flintlock guns one after another.

……

"My lord, we've been tricked!"

"Xianyang Drumming, damn it, this is Xuanyang Drumming!"

"What hanging sheep and drumming? Where did the sheep come from? There are only Fujin and Diva here!"

Hearing the yelling of the attendants behind him, Esen became even more upset: "Enough, what are you shouting for? What are you shouting for? Shut up the fuck! Shut up!"

The guards didn't dare to say anything more.

"Fu Jin, what's going on?"

Er Sen signaled his Fujin to come forward.

However, his Fujin dare not go forward.

Ersen frowned and was about to reprimand him,

Suddenly there was the sound of a gun being fired outside the Wang Tent.

"Where is the sound of the gun being fired?" Er Sen's face collapsed.

Immediately afterwards, there was another faint sound of bugles outside.

"Horn? It's the Ming army!" an attendant yelled.

Immediately, Horqin left-wing Zhongqitai Jibadali broke into the king's tent with a dark face.

"My lord, go and have a look outside!" Badali growled with a dark face, "What a disaster!"

Er Sen could only suppress the fuss in his heart, and hurried out of the account with a group of attendants and followed Badali.

After leaving the king's tent, Ersen just glanced at it, and Ersen was completely stupid. Is this an ambush?
Because the valley where the wintering camp is located is very flat and has an excellent view, you can clearly see hundreds of bonfires burning around the camp. In the light of the fire, groups of enemy troops with live ammunition are approaching the camp.

What is even more desperating is that there are enemy troops approaching in all directions of the camp, and they are already lined up.

"My lord, what should we do now?" Badalley yelled with a dark face, "Defend or break out? If we break out, which direction should we break out?"

"Breakout, must breakout!"

"Staying here can only be a dead end."

"My lord, break out to the west, to the upper reaches of the Liao River."

"That's right, the North Korean army is mostly in the west. Although they are also equipped with self-generating firecrackers, they are easier to deal with than the Ming army."

"Yes, our horses are still upstream. If we don't have horses, we can't run far even if we break out, so we can only break out westward, defeat the North Korean army, and then break out westward!"

Accompanied by roars one after another, Taiji from all banners arrived one after another.

By this time, everyone knew that they had fallen for the trick of the Ming army, because apart from the women and children from the Left Wing Front Banner, there was not even a single Ming army in the wintering camp.

"Okay, let's break out in the direction of the upper reaches of the Liaohe River!"

At this time, Er Sen had lost his mind and immediately ordered to break through.

At this time, Fujin who had been silent just now caught up: "My lord, why don't you take your concubine with you? Take our children with you too."

A dozen other Horqin women also caught up with Esen.

Two of them hugged Esen's thigh because of their beauty.

"Get out! Get out of here, my lord!" Er Sen couldn't help kicking the two Horqin women to the ground, and knocked his Fujin to the ground with another whip.

It's this time, how can we still care about women?
But his son cannot be left behind and must be taken away.

"Bart, hurry up and find some little Baylors."

"If you find it, hurry up and take them to catch up, hurry up!"

While speaking, Ersen had brought his attendants behind the low wall.

Looking up, amidst the blazing fire, I saw that the North Korean military line array on the opposite side had approached within 3000 steps, and it was roughly estimated that there were at least [-] people.

"Damn!"

Ersen glanced to the north and south sides.

It was found that there were North Korean troops on both sides, and North Korean troops were everywhere.

At this time, if you look down from a high altitude, you can see a very wonderful painting.

More than 1 Ming troops and more than 5000 Korean troops were divided into eight line arrays, approaching the winter camp in the middle from eight directions, which looked like a moving and shrinking gossip array.

At this time, there was no retreat for the Horqin cavalry, so they had to rush over.

"Send an order, concentrate all forces, and break out from the due west!" Accompanied by Er Sen's order, the Horqin cavalry launched a desperate charge to the North Korean army.

More than 3 Horqin people rushed westward in a swarm.

The panicked Horqin people have even forgotten the division of labor.

Under normal circumstances, at least half of the people should be allocated as archers.

After a while, the Horqin who rushed to the front were less than a hundred steps away from the North Korean army.

However, the North Korean army was completely unmoved, and continued to move forward at a uniform pace.

Eighty steps, sixty steps, fifty steps, the Horqin people who rushed to the front had already started to draw their bows and shoot arrows, and even a few North Korean soldiers were shot in the face and fell to the ground wailing.

However, other North Korean troops are still marching forward.

When the distance between the two sides was reduced to forty steps, the general on the leftmost side of the line finally raised his short gun.

The stepping forward Korean infantry also raised their flintlock guns one after another, pointing their black muzzles at the Horqin people who were rushing forward with scimitars or horn bows.

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two armies was only about thirty steps away.

With the light of the fire, the face on the other side could already be seen clearly.

"Boom!" The scholar walking on the leftmost side of the queue pulled the trigger first.

Immediately afterwards, the more than 1000 North Korean troops walking in the front row also pulled the triggers one after another.

"Bah bah bah!" Accompanied by the dense gunshots like popping beans, the Horqin people rushing to the front suddenly crawled on the ground like grass that was cut by someone.

With just one blow, at least a thousand Horqin people were shot and fell to the ground.

Then the second row of North Korean troops quickly came up and fired again.

"Bah bah bah!" Another burst of gunfire rang out, and the Horqin people on the opposite side fell down again.

Before it was over, the third row of North Korean troops came up again, lowered their guns again, and pulled the trigger on the Horqin people who had subconsciously slowed down: "Bah bah bah..."

The gunshots rang out, and a large group of Horqin people fell down again.

"Mother thief, when did these Goryeo sticks become so powerful?"

"It's impossible, it's absolutely impossible, how could Gaoli Bangzi's queue be so skillful?"

"God of Changsheng, we have been deceived, we must have been deceived, these are not Koreans, these are Ming dogs! Ming dogs wearing the battle coats of the Korean army, we have been deceived, we have been deceived by Ming dogs ! Minggou is too cunning!"

In an instant, the screams, howls, and curses of the Horqin people were intertwined, and a huge fear instantly enveloped all the remaining Horqin people.

In the face of such huge casualties, who is not afraid?
Going forward, there will only be more Horqin people killed.

So the Horqin people who followed behind turned subconsciously, turning to the northwest and southwest.

Unfortunately, there was also a line of North Korean troops approaching in the southwest and northwest directions, and the panicked Horqin people were hit head-on by the North Korean army again.

After being hit hard, the people of Horqin were completely panicked.

In fact, most of the Horqin people were still alive at this time.

If you rush forward desperately, most people still have a chance to rush out.

However, there is no if in reality. The reality is that the Horqin people were defeated by the line array of the Korean army.

Of course, these are not the real Korean army, but the new Ming army who put on the jacket of the Korean army.

After being killed and injured 6000 people, the remaining 2 Horqin people collapsed completely, and then retreated to the wintering camp like a tide hitting a rock.

……

On the mountain ridge, Zhu Cijiong has not moved.

The two thousand cavalry behind Zhu Cijiong did not move.

This is the mobile force that Zhu Cijiong deliberately withheld for backup.

This was also taught by Chongzhen himself, and a hole card must be kept at all times.

Of course, Zhu Cijiong's hole card is not only this one, he also has thousands of children from Horqin.

Seeing the Horqin people retreating to the camp like a flood, Zhu Cijiong smiled slightly, and it was done. After tonight, Horqin Mongolia will become a historical term.

Scholars such as Wang Fuzhi also beat their knots hard.

It was beyond their expectation that the battle would go so smoothly.

Xia Wanchun suggested: "Prince Ding, if there are no accidents, the horses of the Horqin people should stay in the upper reaches. How about letting the minister lead the cavalry to seize these horses?"

Zhu Cijiong was also a little bit moved.
