Daming wolf ride

Updated: 2012-11-13

The remnants of the Ming army were cut into four battle formations by the Jin army. The Ming army under the banner of the Chinese army had the largest number of troops. About five or six thousand Ming troops fought stubbornly under the command of Zhang Hongmo, Zhang Jifu, Yang Zhenghua and other Ming generals.The commander-in-chief of the army, Zhang Chun, was also among this Ming army, so this Ming army withstood the fierce blow of the Jin army crossing the river.In order to capture Zhang Chun alive and completely destroy the courage of the Ming army to resist, Huang Taiji mobilized Zhenglan, Xianghong, and a Xianghuang Banner to attack Zhang Chun's Ming army with a total of [-] cavalry.

Except for the Ming army under the banner of the Central Army, the most powerful troops are the Ming army chariot soldiers near the Xiaoling River who persist in resisting. They are led by deputy generals Wang Zhiku and Manku. At this moment, there are still more than 4000 people. It is the Zhengbai Banner of the Jin Army and the Han Army Banner crossing the river.

The right-wing Song Wei's department is also insisting on resisting. Song Wei's cavalry is not many at all, and only more than 600 cavalry were brought out of the city. Now they are besieged by the golden army with white flags. Under the oppression of several times the enemy soldiers, Song Wei has no support. Suffering from being cut off from the rear, it is impossible to retreat or join the Chinese army, so it is not an exaggeration to say that we can linger.

The cavalry of Wu Xiang on the left wing ordered to retreat as early as when the Jin army crossed the river, but the gap left by him was filled by a Ming army infantry. From a distance, the Ming army also had more than a thousand soldiers. , Most of them are pikemen, with more than 100 chariots integrated into a battle formation, and they fight and retreat.The Ming general who led the army didn't know who he was, but he also took part in the general's flag display. It is estimated that the resistance was spontaneously organized by the middle and lower ranks of the Ming army. [

Huang Taiji directly ignored this kind of spontaneous resistance and the small-scale Ming army. Seeing that Azige and Mangurtai had worked hard in attacking, but there was no improvement, he couldn't help being a little impatient.But he knew that there would be no rush. The Ming army in the encirclement is now like a trapped beast in a cage. The more you push, the more fierce they bite. Consume their troops a little bit, and then send people to persuade them to surrender, so that the effect can be doubled.

Thinking of persuading him to surrender, Huang Taiji turned to Fan Wencheng, "Wencheng, do we know Zhang Chun?"

Hearing this, Fan Wencheng knew that King Khan was going to send someone to persuade him to surrender, so he shook his head and said, "Mr Zhang Chun was a newly promoted official when King Khan entered the customs the year before last, and few people here in Dajin know him " After a pause, Yingying said: "However, if King Khan wants to persuade the old man to surrender, I think I still have a bit of eloquence, and I am willing to go forward and say surrender for King Khan."

Huang Taiji nodded, and said with a smile: "That's fine, if Wen Cheng is involved, the matter will be half done. When Ben Khan tells the front to work harder, Wen Cheng will cross the river to persuade Ben Khan to surrender that Zhang Chun."

"Most officials in the Ming Dynasty are afraid of death. Zhang Chun is not afraid of death. The generals under him are always afraid of death. Even if they can't surrender Zhang Chun, but if they persuade the generals under him, he will not surrender if Zhang Chun does not surrender." have to drop."

Fan Wencheng said with a smile, his face full of confidence.Just as he was talking, there was the sound of battle behind the Ming army's defense line. It seemed that several Ming troops were shouting something in unison.

"Why, the Ming army came to Jinzhou again?"

Huang Taiji frowned, thinking that the Ming army from Jinzhou had come to aid Zhang Chun, he raised his binoculars and saw that it was a Ming army with a small force approaching the banner of the Chinese army, about thousands of defeated troops. It was under the oppression of this Ming army that they turned around again.

In the telescope, it can be seen that the banner of the Ming army is "Shi", and there is also a banner of "Songshan".

A famous general surnamed Shi?The Ming army from Songshan?

Huang Taiji thought for a while, and it seemed that the Ming army did not have any commander-in-chief surnamed Shi. He thought in his heart that he might be the rear army of the Ming army.

However, although the Ming army was all infantry, there were thousands of rout soldiers. Huang Taiji was worried that after they joined Zhang Chun of the Chinese army, they would delay the battle and increase unnecessary casualties of the Eight Banners warriors.So he raised the flag and ordered Zhenghongqi, who was about to cross the river, to divide half of his troops to intercept the Ming army.

Daishanzi Yuetuo was in command of Zhenghong Banner. After seeing King Khan's flag order, he quickly assigned four Niulu cavalry to intercept it.

I wanted to take advantage of the chaos to rush to the Chinese army, but was discovered by the Jin army. Seeing the cavalry with Jiannu holding the red flag rushing towards him, Shi Dayong was also a little anxious. The wolf cavalry hadn't put on their armor yet. , but it's full training, not even weapons, all relying on enthusiasm to follow him to the battle.There were thousands of Eight Banners cavalrymen coming towards him, Shi Dayong thought it was impossible to withstand their blow, but he couldn't just turn around.

Behind them, the broken soldiers who followed the Songshan Army began to move agitatedly, and some began to turn around and run away again.

Cao Bianjiao and Jiang Wanli didn't know what to do, they all looked at Shi Dayong eagerly, waiting for his order.

In his anxiety, Shi Dayong felt a coolness on his neck. With a thought, he took off his mask and found that it was windy, and the wind direction was northeast!

Sweeping the ground, because of the small glaciers, autumn has entered outside the pass more than a month earlier than in previous years. Most of the knee-high grass on the ground has turned yellow. The weather has been dry for several days. Just a torch can start a prairie fire.

Without thinking, he blurted out: "Guo Yi, set fire, quick, set fire!"

"set fire?"

All the generals were stunned when they heard the order, but Guo Yi took out the flint without hesitation, ran forward ten steps, squatted down and lit the fire.

The flint ignited as soon as it was touched, and a small flame shot up from the roots of the withered grass. In an instant, under the blowing of the wind, the grass in front was ignited.Soon, a flame taller than one person appeared in front of everyone.

One place is not enough!

Shi Dayong yelled at Jiang Wanli and Ma Zhong who were still in a daze: "Don't stand there stupidly, go and set fire, hurry!"

"Ah?... Hey!"

Ma Zhong and the others didn't hesitate any longer, they hurriedly rushed forward, scattered all over the place, or took the fire that Guo Yi lit on the spot to ignite it, or used the flames to light it, and soon, the Songshan army appeared in front of the formation. Dozens of flames were emitted, and then quickly connected together.

The fire started a prairie fire, and under the blowing of the northeast wind, the fire rushed forward like a fire dragon.

The more it burns, the more it burns, the longer it burns, and the more it burns.

The flames blew toward the northeast with thick smoke, where there were not only the Jin army, but also the Ming army.

His face was scorching hot, but his heart was even warmer.

The fire formed an impenetrable line of defense in front of the Songshan army like a sharp weapon. Seeing the fire from a distance, the Eight Banners soldiers who came rushing over panicked, turned around and ran back.

The fire grew louder and the smoke thicker.

However, the generals were not as happy as Shi Dayong was, but were a little panicked because they saw that the fire was burning towards their own army.

"General, what about Bingbei and our brothers?" Cao Bianjiao asked in a low voice.

"I can't care less."

Shi Dayong shook his head naively: "It's better to be broken than to be whole. I believe that Lord Bingbei and brothers will not blame me."
