Daming wolf ride

Updated: 2012-11-15

The fire burned all the way to the Xiaoling River, and when the smoke drifted away, Shi Dayong knew that it was time for a decisive battle. Looking at the blood-stained Xiaoling River, he calmly put on the bronze mask.

"Wolf cavalry in armor!"

Immediately, six hundred Changping disciples with armor on their backs rushed out, frantically putting armor on for the horses and wolf cavalry.

Those wolf cavalrymen who couldn't ride a horse didn't even frown. With the help of their companions, they climbed onto their horses, and then let the soldiers under the horses tie them firmly to the horses with belts. They couldn't move at all except sitting upright. one time. [

After raising his arms and confirming that the armor was fastened, Shi Dayong issued three orders in succession:

"Huang An, after the general crosses the river, you lead the army and follow up behind the general!"

"Jiang Wanli led the Chinese army across the river and set fire to it!"

"Shao Wu led the rear army to retreat five miles."

Hearing that Shi Dayong wanted to lead his men to retreat, Shao Wu was stunned, and asked in a low voice: "General, although my rear army is incomplete, but the whole army is united and everyone dares to fight. Why does the general want me to retreat? Could it be that the general does not trust me?" Do I have a thousand brothers in the army!"

"It's not that I can't trust you, but..."

After pausing for a few seconds, Shi Dayong seemed to be confessing his last words, and said slowly: "If the general is not supported, you will quickly set fire to isolate the battlefield, gather as many defeated soldiers as possible, and then quickly bring them back to Jinzhou and hand them over to Lord Futai. If they are defeated, Jiannu will definitely send troops to attack Jinzhou. At that time, these defeated soldiers will be the greatest reliance of Master Futai. If Jinzhou can be kept, the situation will not be too bad. If Jinzhou also falls, our Daming may really..."

Having said that, he didn't continue talking, but closed his eyes and looked up to the sky.

What Shi Dayong was thinking behind the bronze mask, no one knew.

"General!..."

Everyone could hear that Shi Dayong's words were an account of what happened behind him, and they couldn't help but have a sore nose and tears welled up in their eyes.They could see clearly from the rear that although the fire had forced the Jin army back, the Jin army on the north bank had recovered and was still stronger than their own. There was still no hope of winning this battle.

Knowing that there is no hope of victory, the general still leads the wolf cavalry into the battle. This is because he has the will to die, and he is also trying to win more troops to defend Jinzhou. This kind of sincerity for the country is too tragic.

The atmosphere is a little heavy.

After a while, Shi Dayong suddenly clamped his horse's belly, and galloped forward without saying anything.

Seeing this, Cao Bianjiao raised his arms and roared: "Attack, wolf cavalry!"

In an instant, three hundred Tiefutu dead soldiers rushed out together, and the black ash on the ground was kicked up by the horseshoes.

Huang An and Jiang Wanli each led a thousand soldiers and followed closely. Seeing this, some of the rout soldiers gathered behind them chose to follow the Songshan Army, some chose to stay where they were, and some made no noise. ran back.

…………

After the thick smoke drifted away, the field of vision was wide open, and the real situation of the Ming army who took advantage of the chaos to counterattack was immediately seen by the Jin army on the north bank. [

It was discovered that it was not Jinzhou that the main force of the Ming army had arrived, and that the remnants of the Ming army led by Zhang Chun were still chasing and killing them all the way across the river. The Jin army immediately began to counterattack.

Both the Ming and Jin armies adopted their own best tactics. The Jin army charged with cavalry archers and shot at the Ming army with arrows. The Ming army relied on the remaining hundreds of chariots to meet them with firearms. For a while, arrows rained in the Xiaoling River. , The sound of gunfire rang out.

The Jin army did not have a firm foothold, and fled all the way across the river, so although they knew the details of the Ming army, they couldn't drive the Ming army back in the river for a while.

Although the fire was extinguished, the morale of the Ming army was high after chasing and killing the Jin army all the way just now, and because the Jin army in the river was cut off by the Ming army, they didn't know that the north bank had counterattacked, so they still made a mess. With the help of the chaos army, although the Ming army only had more than [-] people, they were not at a disadvantage for a while, so they resisted very tenaciously.

The most tenacious attack was left-wing Zuo Liangyu's department. This person was a sharpshooter, and his arrows were shot in vain. There were fifty archers trained by him in his department. Under the deadly arrows of these sharpshooters, the Jin army Constantly hit the arrows and fall off the horse.Afterwards, the [-] Changping soldiers on the left attacked first, followed by more than [-] rebels, breaking through the Jin army continuously, killing the Jin army in the left wing river and fleeing like wolves.

Seeing that the Ming army on the left wing was strong, Dorgon hurriedly led Ba Yala to attack the Ming army several times, but they were all chased back by the stubborn Ming army. At that time, his nephew Fukachan was also shot and fell off his horse. Fortunately, several Goshhas tried their best to rescue him and escaped.

The left side fought more and more bravely, and the Ming army in the other direction saw that the left wing was progressing smoothly, and the Jin army could not stop it, and hundreds of Ming soldiers flocked to join them. Compared with the central army, the left side was obviously more threatening to the Jin army. If they couldn't stop this Ming army, they would rush ashore to join up with the Ming army that had crossed the river before, and they would turn upside down behind their own formation.

Huang Taiji, who could see clearly, immediately ordered his son-in-law Darhan to lead five hundred soldiers to join the left-wing battle, intending to wipe out all the left-wing Ming troops.He also urgently ordered Yue Tuo to deal with the Ming army chariot soldiers who had already crossed the river as soon as possible.

On the right wing, in the river beside the stone bridge, the cavalry of the Ming and Jin sides were fighting.Song Wei's remaining cavalry was less than a thousand, but under Song Wei's command, he continued to launch desperate charges against the counterattacking Jin army, trying to buy time for the Chinese army, restrain more Jin troops on the north bank, and reduce the pressure on the Chinese army. .

Song Wei's troops were small, and although they continued to charge, they were not taken seriously by Huang Taiji, so he ordered the Mongolian prince Engedel to lead [-] soldiers to stop the enemy.The combat effectiveness of the Mongolian soldiers was much worse than that of the Manchu Eight Banners. Under the attack of Song Wei's three-eyed blunderbuss, Engdel repeatedly failed to attack, and Nai retreated, causing Song Wei's troops to rush to the north bank.The emperor was very frightened, and hurriedly ordered Yang Guli's other five hundred soldiers to stop him.

After a series of battles, Song Wei's troops suffered heavy casualties, with less than 100 cavalry left. After advancing again, and more than [-] cavalry were lost, Song Wei ordered to retreat.Yanggu's interest rate department chased after him.

When Song Wei fled, the Ming army immediately lost the support of the right wing, and the Mongolian soldiers took advantage of the situation to join the battle. The Ming army immediately couldn't resist.

The more than 2000 battalion soldiers trapped in the middle of the river had to bear the attack of the Jin army on both sides.

The situation in Zhang Chun's side was not optimistic either. General Yang Zhenghua was wounded, guerrilla Ge Tai and Hu De died in battle, and the number of Ming troops gathered under the banner of the Chinese Army was less than [-].

The thousands of gold troops lying between Manku and Zhongjun are like an insurmountable mountain. Although they are only two hundred steps apart, they can never meet again.

Zhang Chun was fighting on the front line as a civil servant, his body was covered with blood, but it was stained by the Jin Yiwei who protected him. The Jin army kept approaching, and Dong Kaiguo led a dozen of his men to guard Zhang Chun to death. Jin Yiwei was hit by an arrow, but every time one fell, someone came up to fill the gap.

Dong Kaiguo personally held a shield to protect Zhang Chun's head. The shield was already full of arrows, but Zhang Chun was not damaged at all.

In front, more and more Jin troops surged, and the Jin troops who had been restrained by the chariot soldiers also began to turn around. Obviously, the chariot soldiers had been wiped out.In the rebellious army, Zhang Chun seemed to hear Manku's dying roar, but he couldn't hear it clearly.

Finally, the horn of the Golden Army sounded again, and all the Golden Army in the middle of the river no longer huddled together in a panic, but turned around to attack the banner of the Chinese Army where Zhang Chun was.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, but the river under his feet could not light a fire. Zhang Chun knew that there would be no more miracles this time, so he gritted his teeth and refused to back down. He even pulled out the sword bestowed by the emperor and prepared to commit suicide. I would rather die than be a prisoner of the East.

The right wing collapsed, the left wing was surrounded by the Jin army, and the Chinese army had less than 4000 people left. There was no suspense about the outcome.

After all, he was a 65-year-old man in his sixties. Zhang Chun was exhausted and suddenly fell down in the river without saying a word, only panting heavily. [

After sitting like this for a while, Zhang Chun suddenly raised his head and shouted at Dong Kaiguo: "The envoy, hurry up!"

After hearing this, Dong Kaiguo simply sat down in the river and smiled wryly: "My lord, you don't need to talk about your responsibilities."

Zhang Chun sighed, nodded slightly, and slowly put the sword on his neck.Seeing this, Dong Jianguo didn't stop him, but just looked at him fixedly.The only remaining seven guards in Jinyi surrounded him with Xiuchun Dao, they didn't move even though the front shouted Sha Zhentian.

Zhang Chun suddenly had a feeling: "Being a companion on the Huangquan Road with the Chinese envoy, the old man's life is worth it."

Hearing this, Dong Kaiguo chuckled lightly: "It's a great honor for me to be able to drink Meng Po soup with the commander in chief of the army."

Zhang Chun sighed slightly, without any further hesitation, and said: "The envoy will be later, let the old man take a step first." After speaking, the hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and was about to wipe it off his neck, but at this moment, he heard a strange sound The voice came.

“Da da da da da”

The sound was very dull, like the sound of a horse's hoof stepping on a stone slab.

Zhang Chun subconsciously looked to the right, but saw an extra group of soldiers and horses approaching the empty stone bridge at some point. Immediately, all the knights were wearing heavy armor. Shi" banner.
