Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 168 Arriving in Luanzhou

When Baduli arrived, he was very surprised to see that there were only sixty or so people left in the post-Gold Army.Quickly ask why.Because this post-golden army was all the bannermen of the inlaid blue flag, Baduli felt very painful after suffering such a big loss.

After learning that these bannermen were killed by firecrackers, Baduli frowned, and then he asked, "Do you know which Ming army this is?"

The leader who led the post-Jin army replied: "The slave didn't see the banner clearly, but judging from the appearance of the weapons of the Ming army, they seem to be white soldiers."

The white gun used by the white soldiers is not only white, but also has an iron cross next to the gun head, which is somewhat similar to a halberd, so it is easy to recognize.And because the white pole soldiers once fought fiercely with the Houjin Army in Liaodong, the veterans of the Houjin Army basically knew this powerful Ming Dynasty army.

Knowing that the opponent was a white soldier, Baduri frowned even tighter.Don't look at Badu Li's superficial appearance as if he is very reckless, but his character on the battlefield is not impulsive.

So Baduli continued to ask: "How far were you from the Ming army at that time?"

"About six or seventy steps."

"Sixty or seventy paces?" A Hou Jin general on the side exclaimed in surprise, "When did the Ming army's firecrackers hit so far?"

"The slave couldn't believe it at the time. But after the row of firecrackers hit, three to 40 soldiers were knocked down in one fell swoop. The slave hurriedly backed away to be lucky. The servant reckoned that the firecrackers could hit a distance of a hundred paces. "

After hearing this, Badu Li thought quietly.Those white-armed soldiers used to be so difficult to deal with, but now that they have such a powerful firecracker, it's not easy to fight with only [-] soldiers on their own!

Baduli thought that before he set off, Lord Belle Amin told himself in private that he should try his best to keep the flags inlaid with blue flags, and not to fight the Ming army.Immediately, Baduli made a decision, let those Mongolian soldiers try again when the Ming army marches tomorrow, if it is a stone, don't try your teeth again.It is more important whether it is the banner of the inlaid blue flag.

The next day, when the spies of Qin Liangyu's army reported the discovery of the Houjin army, the army had already felt the sound of horses shaking in the distance.Everyone looked towards the direction where the Hou Jin army was coming.

Qin Liangyu immediately ordered the soldiers to come out of the marching ranks and line up.She gathered all of Wu Shigong's cavalry and the cavalry of the white-armed soldiers, a total of more than 600 cavalry, and put Wu Shigong's cavalry commander Xue Qiang under unified command and placed them on the right side of the formation.

Qin Liangyu divided the soldiers of the white pole soldiers into two teams, which were lined up in the middle and on the left side respectively.The white pole soldiers were indeed well-trained, and they quickly formed their formation, ready to fight against the cavalry of the Houjin army.

And because he saw the power of the firecrackers yesterday, Qin Liangyu asked Wu Shigong to make soy sauce, and let Wu Shigong lead the rest of his infantry, with all the firecrackers and artillery, to protect the supplies and the young men behind the formation.

Wu Shigong also used the old method, first surrounded all the carts into a circle, and let all the young men and his soldiers stay in the circle of carts.

It can be seen from this that although Qin Liangyu has rich military experience, she has also used firecrackers and artillery before, and she also affirmed some of the power of firecrackers and artillery.However, Qin Liangyu still has no intuitive understanding of the enormous power produced by the large-scale use of firearms.

So at this time, when fighting with the Hou Jin army, Qin Liangyu would rather believe in the cold weapons in the hands of the white-armed soldiers, but still didn't really believe in the role of firearms, so he left Wu Shigong's firecrackers and cannons behind.

But what Qin Liangyu and Wu Shigong didn't expect was that this post-Jin army came with the momentum to defeat the two Ming armies, and they would definitely face a fierce battle.But in the end, the attack of the post-golden army was anticlimactic.

First, Baduli sent a team of cavalry to contain Xue Qiang's cavalry on the right.Then more than 200 Mongolian troops were sent to tentatively attack the middle formation of the white pole soldiers.Those Mongolian troops still used the old routine, dismounted at about 120 steps, and shot arrows with long bows to disrupt the formation of white soldiers in the middle.

But as soon as these Mongolian troops got off their horses, a group of soldiers galloped out of the formation of white soldiers.When the Mongolian army just finished shooting the first round of arrows, these white soldiers had already run more than [-] steps.

You must know that after dismounting, the archer has no combat effectiveness at all after being approached by the enemy's soldiers.Therefore, when these Mongolian troops saw those white soldiers running over, they immediately found their horses and mounted them.

But in such a short period of time, these white-bared soldiers had already run to a distance of about [-] steps from the Mongolian army.Those white soldiers were holding spears in their hands.After they threw the spears out, they immediately shot down a Mongolian army.Fortunately, they were not shot by the spears, and the Mongolian army who had already mounted their horses turned their heads and ran back, trying to distance themselves from these white soldiers.But because the speed of their horses did not increase, the few Mongolian soldiers who fell behind were stabbed off the horses by the white soldiers.

And when the Hou Jin army behind Baduli stepped forward to support, Qin Liangyu's white-armed soldiers also pressed up.In this trial, 50 to [-] people were killed or injured on both sides.It can be said that it was a tie.

Then, Badu Li sent another [-] Mongolian troops as the front team to form a formation of cavalry, trying to forcefully charge Qin Liangyu's formation of white soldiers.But when they rushed to the front of the formation, the well-trained white soldiers didn't panic at all.They all leaned forward with their long spears, forming a spear formation, waiting for the Mongolian army to hit them.

Of course, these Mongolian troops refused to face the gun formation like this to die, so these Mongolian troops also came to a sudden stop in front of the gun formation.But there were still more than a dozen horses who couldn't hold back their feet, bumped into the gun formation and died.Several Mongolian soldiers were thrown off by the sharply turning horses, and stabbed to death by the white soldiers who picked up the missing ones.In this confrontation, the Houjin Army suffered some losses.

Seeing that his two attacks were easily dealt with by the white soldiers, and up to now, Baduri has not seen the white soldiers use the firecrackers.Baduli felt that he had not forced out the magic weapon of the white-armed soldiers at all.

After weighing it for a while, Badu Li, who felt that he had basically completed the task of attacking the Ming army, called Jin to withdraw his troops. He took the Hou Jin army away from the battlefield and returned to Yongping City to return.

At the beginning of the battle, Wu Shigong was still standing on the roof of a cart in the circle of carts, wanting to observe the progress of the battle.However, he only saw the backs of the white soldiers' heads, and couldn't see what was happening in front of them at all.Bored, Wu Shigong just sat on the roof of the big car and went through the whole battle.

And because both Qin Liangyu and Wu Shigong cherished these cavalry, Qin Liangyu asked Xue Qiang's cavalry not to go out to participate in the battle as much as possible, as long as they protected the formation of white soldiers.

Therefore, under the containment of the Hou Jin army, Xue Qiang's cavalry did not make any fighting moves.But you must know that after any kind of arms is trained, it will be used.It is a very stupid behavior to dare not use this kind of arms for fear of loss.

Of course, in this battle, the consequences of this stupidity were still not shown.But at least during the march, in order to protect their cavalry from losses, they gave up reconnaissance and strangulation, which also made Qin Liangyu and Wu Shigong's march seem very passive.Of course, because it is not easy for these two people to obtain horses and train cavalry, it is understandable that they are particularly cautious about the use of cavalry.

Without Baduli's Hou Jin army threatening at the side, under Qin Liangyu's order, the army began to march again at high speed.Qin Liangyu's army rushed to Luanzhou City that night.And at a place about five miles away from Luanzhou City, they found a suitable flat land and began to build the camp overnight.

This time to build the camp, except for those young and strong, all other soldiers also worked together.They didn't care about the tiredness of fighting and marching during the day, and worked hard to build for their own lives.

By the morning of the second day, the entire camp had begun to see its scale.The generals of the Jin army who were observing the movements of the Ming army in Luanzhou City were all stunned.After two days of construction like this, the whole camp has completely turned into an enhanced version of Wu Shigong's turtle camp.

And when Baduli thought he had kept the banner of the Xianglan Banner and returned to Yongping City, he was pointed at his nose by the grumpy Amin and scolded him. Salute a few whips.

Amin believes that: Baduli should join the Houjin Army in Luanzhou City, plus the reinforcements of the Houjin Army sent from Yongping City, and make use of the advantages of the Houjin Army being good at field battles, and conduct a battle with Qin Liangyu's army under Luanzhou City. battle.

In this battle, the Hou Jin army will try their best to defeat them regardless of their own casualties. To take a step back, they will also destroy Qin Liangyu's army, making Qin Liangyu's army lose the ability to attack Luanzhou City.In order to ensure the active position of the Later Jin Army in the battle to keep the four cities of Yongping.

It can be seen from this that although there were deep contradictions among the rulers of the Later Jin Dynasty, they still made concerted efforts in the process of facing the Ming army.In contrast, for the scattered Ming army, it is extremely rare for friendly neighbors to support each other!

Amin immediately sent someone to Luanzhou City to contact him, trying to make up for it.But the news from Luanzhou City told Amin that Qin Liangyu's army had built a very strong camp.Now if we want to defeat this Ming army, it will become a tough battle with heavy casualties.In this way, the Hou Jin army lost a good chance to defeat Qin Liangyu's army.

At this time, the three Ming armies that had withdrawn were also severely criticized by Sun Chengzong and the court.Sun Chengzong ordered them to rush to Luanzhou City as quickly as possible to meet Qin Liangyu and attack Luanzhou City together.

So, after forcibly recruiting a large number of nearby civilians, the main force of the three Ming armies headed by Zu Dashou traveled day and night, carrying six red cannons, and marched quickly towards Luanzhou City.
