Paper Maker: This is the end of the Ming Dynasty in Liaozhai

Chapter 196 Laying the Net!Break the net!
"Sweat!"

"Sweat!"

Seeing this scene, Dai Shan, Mang Gurtai and the others turned pale with fright. Huang Taiji is a congenital master, so he would be so angry that he vomited blood.

"Ben Khan is fine."

Huang Taiji waved his hands, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath before slowly opening his eyes.

"Khan, where should we break out from next?"

At this time, Yue Tuo asked, "This is not a trivial matter. They don't have a map inside the pass. The only place where they can break through the pass is the Zunhua area. They are not familiar with other places. If they wander around, once they find If you don't reach the place where you can leave the customs, you are looking for death.

"Let's go to Zunhua City!"

After a moment of silence, Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and said, if it was any other time, he would not mind taking a risk and going to Miyun or Xuanfu, but now that Daming has opened up a big net, he is going to catch them all in one go. The route is tantamount to giving Da Ming more time to prepare, and the more Da Ming prepares, the greater the possibility of them being wiped out.

If they go to the Zunhua side, they are more familiar with the route. Although there must be a lot of Ming troops there, with their strength, it is still possible to break through the barrier. As for the loss, now is not the time to think about it.

"Yes."

Yue Tuo nodded, then turned and left.

...

Soon, the Houjin army set out, Daishan led [-] cavalry first, Huang Taiji led thousands of cavalry to break the rear, and Wang Zhichen chose to bypass Huang Taiji and took thousands of Liaodong cavalry to pursue Daishan.

"Khan, do you want to stop them?"

Seeing the Liaodong cavalry following them, Du Du frowned.

"No, we just need to stop the Ming army under the city wall."

Huang Taiji shook his head, now the Ming army wanted them to entangle here so that Yuan Chonghuan's troops could catch up, the thousands of Liaodong cavalry led by Wang Zhichen had no choice but to win Daishan.

However, the [-] Ming army infantry under the city wall must be blocked. The cavalry marches faster than the infantry, but in order to ensure that the horses have enough physical strength to fight at any time, the speed of a day is only a hundred miles. The physical exertion is too great, which affects the combat effectiveness.

It is only more than 200 miles from here to Zunhua City. It takes five days for the [-] Ming troops to arrive, and it only takes five or six days for Yuan Chonghuan, so they must not be entangled.

"Khan, the scouts are here to report, Yuan Chonghuan's troops are only twenty miles away from us."

After a long stalemate, Du Du came to Huang Taiji and said.

"Send the order to retreat!"

Hearing this, Huang Taiji waved his hand.

Soon, thousands of cavalry left the camp.

Man Gui and Hou Shilu each led thousands of cavalry, and they followed the army at a distance of more than ten miles, not approaching each other.

At the same time, Zhu Youjian also sent out Li Hongsheng, Yu Xiao, and Xia Bing, three congenital masters enshrined by the royal family, to follow Man Gui, Hou Shilu, and Wang Zhichen, and wanted to keep all the Jurchens in the pass.

And Deng Kui, after Man Gui and Hou Shilu led people to catch up, led the [-] Ming army to the nearest Great Wall pass at a rapid march, trying to completely block the Jurchen inside the pass before they crossed the Great Wall.

...

If someone looked down from a high altitude, they would find that the entire Jiliao was surrounded by a large number of Ming troops, and at the same time, hundreds of Ming army reconnaissance cavalry were linking up with all parties, trying to form a big net.

Deng Kui led [-] infantrymen towards the pass in the Jizhou area at a fast marching speed. The marching distance in a day was no less than a hundred miles. Even if many soldiers were left behind, the speed never slowed down.

The cavalry of Man Gui, Hou Shilu, and Wang Zhichen approached Houjin's soldiers and horses from time to time, slowing down the opponent's speed. At the rear, Yuan Chonghuan also led an army of [-] to chase after him at a speed of marching. inside.

On the other side, outside Jizhou City, Guo Qin stationed here with [-] to [-] soldiers and horses, blocking the way. At this time, a bloody siege battle was going on in Zunhua City. The soldiers and horses sent by Guo Qin Lack of siege equipment, and the Jurchens defending the city lacked troops and defense equipment, so they could only force the people in the city to fight to the death on the city wall, and the two sides fought inextricably.

On the Great Wall, Zhao Lediao, who was originally stationed at Xifengkou, also brought some soldiers and horses back to Da'ankou, Panjiakou, Malanyu, Malanguan and other passes, just waiting for the arrival of the Jurchens.

As time passed, the atmosphere of the war became more and more intense. After Guo Qin blocked the way in Jizhou City, Dai Shan led his troops directly to Malanyu Pass. The purpose was very clear, to break through Malanyu Pass. .

All of a sudden, a large number of soldiers and horses headed towards Malanyuguan.

.........

Malanyuguan.

Closed on the wall, Zhao Ratejiao looked solemnly at the dust flying in the distance, the Jurchens are coming!

At this time, from the Great Wall on the left and right sides of Guancheng, dozens of masters of the Ming army galloped at an extremely fast speed, with Deng Kui leading the way on the west side.

"General Deng, General Lan!"

Seeing Deng Kui and Deng Kui, Zhao Latejiao's face suddenly showed great joy. He has a city wall on his side, and the ordinary soldiers are fine, but there are too many Jurchen masters, and he alone can't stop them. Now Deng Kui and the others are coming Well, even if you can't stop it, you can hold on for a while longer.

On the other side, Daishan also came outside Guancheng with more than 2 cavalry.

"Prepare to attack the city!"

Looking at the pass city sandwiched between the two mountains, Daishan gritted his teeth and ordered: "Let the servants and Mongols go up first, the banner soldiers in the middle, and the personal soldiers in the back. If you don't break through the pass, you can't retreat. Those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"

"Yue Tuo, you take 5000 people to stop Wang Zhichen, and you will never allow him to get close to Guancheng. If you fail, you will come to see him yourself!"

Now there is no time for them to slowly attack the city. The [-] to [-] Ming troops in Jizhou are less than [-] miles away from them, and they will arrive here in a day at most, while the [-] Ming troops in Zunhua City are only [-] miles away. Forty miles, if they can't break through Malanyuguan before a large number of Ming troops arrive, they will be finished!

"Yes!"

After Yue Tuo responded, he immediately led people to kill Wang Zhichen in the direction.

"rush!"

Daishan led hundreds of soldiers to charge forward, and the servants and Mongols behind him also rushed forward with frantic faces. Everyone knew that they had to either break through the pass city in front of them and return to the grassland, or die in this pass.

"Boom!"

As an important pass city, there is naturally no shortage of various defense equipment, so Zhao led the order.

boom!boom!boom!
More than [-] tiger squatting guns fired at the same time, and tens of thousands of stones and iron beads rained down on the cavalry below the city.

For a while, the cavalry who were charging quickly turned their backs on their backs. At least two or three hundred people were killed or injured in a round of shelling, but the rest of the cavalry did not stop and continued to charge.

The next moment, thousands of arrows fell from the sky again, and dozens of cavalrymen fell from the arrows, but for the cavalrymen, the distance of two or three hundred feet was only a moment's work.

Looking at the antler wall under the wall, Daishan didn't stop his soldiers, but urged his horse to hit it.

In an instant, the tragic neighing of the war horse resounded outside the wall, and this collision also smashed all the antler walls, and the other cavalry passed through the antler walls smoothly.

"Hook!"

Daishan yelled, and hundreds of soldiers around him threw out their claws one after another. The claws were tightly hooked on the green bricks on the city wall, and an iron chain was tied to the claws.

"Smash!"

Seeing this, Zhao Lijiao roared angrily, and at the same time kicked away dozens of big stones beside him. The big stones smashed down on the cavalrymen below the city with tyrannical force. At least a hundred cavalrymen were smashed to pieces mud.

When the Ming army on the Guancheng heard the order from Zhao Liaojiao, they also tried their best to smash down the big rock beside them. At the same time, other Ming soldiers also tried their best to cut off the claw hook.

But in the next moment, Dai Shan and other Jurchen masters took advantage of the city bricks and rushed directly to the city gate, beheading dozens of Ming soldiers on the city wall with a few strokes, and protecting the claw hooks.

And Zhao Lediao didn't hesitate, and rushed up with his own soldiers and many Ming army masters. For a while, the entire city wall became a battlefield for masters from both sides.

Malanyuguan is fighting. In addition, the Liaodong cavalry led by Yue Tuo and Wang Zhichen are also fighting together a few miles away. Although the Jurchen cavalry is indeed strong, the Liaodong cavalry is also the absolute elite of the Ming army. , There will be no winner or loser for a while.

On the other side, soldiers and horses led by Huang Taiji, Man Gui, and Hou Shilu were also fighting more than ten miles away.

In the sky, Huang Taiji, Li Hongsheng, and Yu Xiao fought together, even if it was one against two, Huang Taiji would not lose.

"Huang Taiji, it seems that you will all be buried in the pass this time."

Li Hongsheng swung away Huang Taiji's long sword with a mace, and then laughed lightly.

"Then try to see if you have the ability!"

Hearing this, Huang Taiji said coldly: "Even if we die here, at least half of you people will be buried with us!"

He knew very well that what Li Hongsheng said was just a trick to attack his heart, trying to make him mess up. At their level, unless Li Hongsheng and Li Hongsheng were really willing to fight him desperately, they would not be able to tell the winner in a short time .

"Then try!"

Seeing that Huang Taiji was determined, Li Hongsheng was not disappointed. After all, Huang Taiji was also a congenital master.

Down below, the cavalry of the two sides got into an entanglement. The two men of Man and Gui were entangled by Du Du and Mang Gurtai. On the contrary, Azige, Dorgon, and Duo Duo had no opponents. However, the cavalry under Man Gui and Hou Shilu were about to collapse.

"Old Yu, you go and deal with those three brats, leave Huang Taiji to me."

Seeing that the three of Dorgon were invincible in the army, Li Hongsheng frowned and said, the battlefield is a battlefield for soldiers, even if they can defeat Huang Taiji, if they lose the battle, they will also lose the battle.

"it is good."

Hearing Li Hongsheng's words, Yu Xiao turned around and walked towards Dorgon and the others.

"Don't think about it!"

Seeing that Yu Xiao wanted to leave, Huang Taiji slashed towards Yu Xiao with a sword strike.

clang!
A golden mace flew out, directly smashing Huang Taiji's sword gang.

Li Hongsheng said lightly: "Huang Taiji, your opponent is me."

"Fourteenth brother, be careful, Yu Xiao is heading towards you."

Seeing that Yu Xiao couldn't be stopped, Huang Taiji could only remind loudly that he and Li Hongsheng were about the same strength, and if the three of them fought on the battlefield, Dorgon and the others would be more dangerous.

Hearing Huang Taiji's voice, the three of Dorgon's reactions were also extremely fast, and they immediately got off their horses. The three of them were back to back, and hundreds of soldiers beside them also got off their horses at the same time, forming a battle formation and crowding around the three of them. Without the slightest procrastination, obviously well-trained.

After falling to the ground, Yu Xiao kicked his feet, and rushed towards the three of Dorgon like a cheetah. At the same time, the halberd in his hand was like a grass knife. Like weeds in front of him, he fell to the ground and died instantly. In just a moment, hundreds of soldiers fell into a pool of blood.

However, Yu Xiao's forward pace was soon blocked, and more than twenty second-rate masters in heavy armor holding heavy shields stopped in front of Yu Xiao. At the same time, there were six first-rate masters behind him with bows and arrows. ready.

"roll!"

Yu Xiao swept out with a halberd, and the violent Gang Qi blasted towards one of them like a torrent.

The next moment, the five of them leaned close together, raised their shields and hit the halberd. Immediately afterwards, the five of them spurted blood at the same time, and were blasted away.

At the same time, six arrows carrying powerful internal force approached Yu Xiao's vital points like shooting stars.

"Humph!"

Seeing the sharp arrows coming quickly, Yu Xiao snorted coldly, and the huge Gang Qi in his body surged out, turning into a three-foot Gang Qi wall, and the six sharp arrows only shot into one foot of the Gang Qi wall , it will be unable to fall.

However, in the blink of an eye, three faster sharp arrows pierced the sky, and the power of the sharp arrows was even more powerful.

These three sharp arrows were shot by Azig, Dorgon, and Duoduo, but at this time, the faces of the three showed the characteristics of beasts, and Azige's face was covered with snake scales. Dorgon's forehead has more lines of king characters, and Duoduo's face has more fox's beards. Obviously, the three of them are also disciples.

Facing these three arrows, Yu Xiao didn't dare to rely on the wall of Gang Qi anymore. His Wall of Gang Qi can block the attacks of first-class masters, but the strength of Dorgon and the others is no weaker than that of martial arts masters. He didn't have the strength to ignore this level of attack, he dodged one sideways, and knocked two halberds away.

At this time, the five second-rate warriors who had been split into the air had already returned to the battle formation. Except for a little pale face and a deep halberd mark on the heavy shield, there was no sign of serious injury.

Seeing this scene, Yu Xiao frowned. The heavy shields in the hands of these twenty or so soldiers were not simple. Ordinary shields could not stop him from attacking.

But seeing that the cavalry under Man Gui and Hou Shilu had begun to regroup, Yu Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the soldiers could win, someone would entangle Dorgon and their soldiers, and he could behead them directly.

...

On the other side, Yuan Chonghuan also led the army to march forward in a hurry.

Luo Qing quickly came to Yuan Chonghuan's side: "Governor, the detectives came to report that Jiannu is storming Malanyuguan."

"How long can we last at Malanyuguan?"

Yuan Chonghuan frowned. The Jurchens were faster than he had imagined. His side was already marching desperately, and many soldiers had left the team. Unexpectedly, it was still a step late.
