Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 671 The First Stage, Destruction

As soon as the morning dawned, the earth-shattering trumpets sounded loud and clear again in this Jiangnan land. In the misty morning smoke, countless soldiers lined up to walk out of the misty mist. This scene has happened countless times these days. However, this morning, an unusual aura permeated the team.

Every Ming army has received such an order, not to destroy Jiannu, and never to withdraw troops!

These days, too much suffering has happened. Robbers from the north broke into the homes they depended on for survival, robbed them of their land, wealth, bullied their elders, wives and children, and even sacrificed their souls. They hit hard, and turned the Chinese sons and daughters of the proud sons of heaven into pigtails, humble and ugly coats, slaves, and everyone has had enough.

There was no such thing as the legendary strong rain and strong military power, and there was no rhetoric. The artillerymen once again calmly stuffed the heavy shot put shells into the barrel. The soldiers rushed forward silently holding the bayonet.

At this time, the Jiannu army has shrunk by a large circle, shrinking from the original huge barracks with a radius of more than 20 miles to only a dozen miles. However, this is also the most terrifying time for Jiannu. Even if they are dead, the rest are either diehards like Li Chengdong whose hands are stained with the blood of the people in the south of the Yangtze River, or the Jurchen loyalists and their descendants who followed the old slave Nurhachi's thirteen sets of armor and massacred two to three million Han people in Liaodong.

If there is more time, this army will be crushed by hunger if it is trapped for ten days and a half months, but now, the slave army is like a wounded lone wolf, with a madness to bite back in fear.

Now that Jiannu still has horse meat to eat, a little grain from looting to satisfy his hunger, and the power to fight a war, Song Qingshu hopes that there will be more than ten days until Jiannu is at his weakest when he runs out of ammunition and food. Give him a fatal blow, unfortunately, time is not waiting, once Dorgon's troops approach the Yangtze River, the Ming army facing the two-front battle will be completely passive, so it is necessary to completely annihilate the last one hundred thousand slaves in the south of the Yangtze River within a few days The backbone of the army.

The topography of Yixing is known as the famous "three mountains, two rivers and five cents of land". The territory belongs to the remnants of Tianmu Mountain. Although most of the hills are in the south and the north is mostly plains, there are still some ups and downs in the encirclement. Among them, it is close to Taihu Lake. Zhangshan in the south and Fenghuang Mountain in the middle of the two lakes are the main ones. The main defense of Jiannu is also located near these two mountains. Among them, Kong Youde's 2 Han Eight Banners and the [-] Mongol Eight Banners are relatively flat under Zhangshan, while the Manchurian More than [-] people from the Eight Banners were stationed on the formidable Phoenix Mountain in the central area, while Liu Liangzuo's remaining [-] remnant soldiers were placed on the outermost periphery and used as cannon fodder to defend against the plains.

The main force of today's battle is still the Northern Army. These days, no beggars have been sent to the battle. Taiwan, Luzon and other troops were also sent to the front line today, launching the first wave of attack as the vanguard, and Li Dingguo also got his wish. Grabbed the position of the first division in the draft.

Most of the roaring shells fell on the trenches on the plain between Zhangshan and Fenghuangshan. Under the intensive artillery fire of the Qihuo Army, the trenches dug by Jiannu might not be able to bear it, and large sections collapsed. Many green battalion soldiers were buried inside.

It seems that he also felt the unusual atmosphere today. Li Chengdong, the executioner of Xuzhou General Soldier who built slaves and Jiading Santu, ran to the front in person after the shelling was over.

"Brothers suppress it! We Jiading, Kunshan have killed too many Ming dogs! Ming dogs can't tolerate us anymore, surrender is bound to die!"

"But the regent will not give up on us. Lord Belle has already promised that as long as today's attack of the wise dog is repelled, everyone will raise the flag! When the regent goes south, Jiangnan will once again be our world. At that time, brothers You can kill as many smart dogs as you want, and you can sleep with as many smart dog women as you want, we, Old Li, don't care about you!"

Holding the blunderbuss equipped by Hong Guangchao, and wearing the armor issued by Hong Guangchao, you are driven to a dead end. This inhuman beast army is also letting Li Chengdong's words eat your blood red eyes.

"Look at you, Commander-in-Chief!"

"Kill Guangming dog!"

With roars, the Gancheng army, which was once the front line of the empire's defense to the north, frantically raised their firecrackers at Paoze, who was holding a bright flag.

Along with the sound of dense footsteps, amidst the dense gunpowder smoke, the Ming army in black armor and holding a bayonet came into view step by step.

For so many days, the Ming army’s offensives have been in vain. Under the cover of artillery fire, the large corps went to about 50 meters near the trench, suppressed the Qing army in the trench with great firepower, and immediately launched an attack. Once they encountered a difficult attack, they retreated. , Waiting for the next round of artillery support, Li Chengdong's army, who was used to the attacking rhythm of the Ming army, did not rush to fire, but waited patiently and cruelly in the trenches. It is not as good as Song Qingshu's Chongzhen 11-year-style flintlock gun. Large-scale shootings have to wait until the Ming army has finished charging and then use it to kill and injure the Ming army's vital forces.

Although inhumane, Li Chengdong's subordinates are indeed elites who have experienced battles.

However, this time, they seemed to have misjudged the situation, half-creeping, and a division of the Ming army approached within 50 meters. Suddenly, there was a loud cry in the army, and immediately the soldiers who had just avoided the gunfire moved forward slowly. The Ming army took up the bayonet and launched a large-scale charge in an instant, shouting and rushing towards Li Chengdong's trench group in a skirmish line.

The sudden surprise caught Jiannu by surprise, and he ran to the distance of 50 meters in a few seconds. When he realized that Li Chengdong's gunners hurriedly poked their heads out of the trench, the Ming army had already approached more than ten meters away. These gunners fired a round of guns in a hurry, and in the thick gunpowder smoke, a full one or two hundred Ming soldiers fell into the bullets and prostrated themselves on the ground.

But this is also the last swan song of Li Chengdong's musketeer. He broke through the smoke of gunpowder suddenly, and the Ming army ran the last ten meters like a dumpling, and jumped off the ditch.

The more than [-] colonial divisions in Southeast Asia usually target the local Tu people in their daily battles. Across the dense tropical rainforest, sometimes shooting is not as effective as the Tu people hiding in the colorful banana leaves. When large-scale conflicts occur, they I am used to charging against the rain of arrows and solving battles with bayonets!And Li Chengdong's army, which is full of firecrackers and has no bayonet training, is worse than the Tu nationality.

"kill!"

Roaring and stabbing down, amidst the miserable screams of the second ghost from the Green Camp in front of him, Li Xiaohei stabbed out from the other end of his back with a bayonet again, breaking his spine alive, before the man died, he retracted the stabbing Li Xiaohei, who came back, stabbed out again with a straight step, and plunged a bayonet into the throat of the second Jiading executioner who had just turned around, and thick blood sprayed out all at once.

He not only fought for Ming, but also fought for love. The little nurse who made his heart beat looked down on the wealthy manor owner, but only admired heroes. He threw away his job as a commercial commissioner, fell out with his father Li Laobai for the first time, and resolutely joined the army. After a few years, that lazy tenant boy has long since disappeared, replaced by a brave and capable beggar Military camp officer.

Tilting his head to avoid the blood, Li Xiaohei retracted his gun familiarly and sat back down.Seeing his old moves, he finally had time to draw out his knife, and killed the red-eyed third green camp beast army. The wolf howled and wanted to cut him down, but he never expected Li Xiaohei to have such a move , rushed too fast and couldn't catch up, the man screamed in fear that he ran into Li Xiaohei's bayonet.

puff~
The blade was still more than ten centimeters away from Li Xiaohei, full of unwillingness, this murderous beast collapsed on Li Xiaohei's bayonet.

But this is Li Xiaohei's limit. He is sitting on the ground with a man on his bayonet. Following the third, the fourth Li Chengdong army also throws down the blunderbuss and swings their knives, and goes straight to Li Xiaohei with a grinning grin. With his head chopped off, he seemed to have seen this damn Minggou who had killed three people in a row die under his knife, and he had even closed his eyes to avoid the blood.

But Li Xiaohei didn't seem to notice the blade that was whizzing towards him, he didn't even make a move to block it, he threw away the corpse in a leisurely manner, pulled out the bayonet, and in the next second, there was another popping sound, sticky and sticky. Hot blood spattered out again.

On the battlefield, the most reliable friend is the bayonet in your hand, and the more reliable than the bayonet is the comrade in arms who is as brotherly as iron and blood!
Huge casualties have been paid, and huge results have been achieved. A few hundred Li Chengdong's troops in a trench have been almost wiped out in a few breaths, and the blood on the bayonet is thrown away, ignoring the remaining dozens in the trench who are already frightened The enemy, who was huddled in a group and did not dare to go forward, roared, and Li Xiaohei jumped into the next ditch with his battalion.

go ahead!keep going!Several colonial divisions took the risk of going too deep, and stabbed into Jiannu's defensive positions like sharp knives. The elite begging army targeting the Eight Banners of Manchuria could not be stopped by these two devils at all. In an hour, Li Chengdong 2 The tens of thousands of people were pierced and divided into two sections, and the follow-up volunteers wiped out the defeated enemies who fell in the trench.

Even the wounded and captives can't get the slightest mercy!Before the attack, Song Qingshu had ordered that this devil army, which is inferior to beasts, is not worth keeping them alive. Sending them to hell to reunite with their compatriots is the best destination for Li Chengdong's army!

At noon, when the sun was high, Jiannu's army formation had been pierced, and Liu Liangzuo's [-] army was completely defeated. Thousands of lackeys who sold their souls to Jiannu and were willing to massacre their fellow clansmen lay dead in Yixing In this area of ​​mountains and rivers, Li Dingguo's Taiwan Division and the Northward Attack, He Jin's Gezuo Division successfully converged under Zhangshan Mountain, splitting the Qing army into two.

There is no more arrogance in the morning when he was clamoring to kill Guangming Gouzi. The armor on his body was broken in several places. While dragging the knife, Li Chengdong crawled out of the last ditch in embarrassment and staggered towards Zhang Shan. Go, but before he ran more than ten meters away, a thunderous gunshot suddenly exploded behind him.

I was really blown away, I looked at the bloody hole in my chest in disbelief, and immediately this insane devil who massacred nearly [-] innocent people in Jiading knelt down limply on the ground, and then smashed his head heavily on the On the earth stained red with blood.

Throwing down the plug that blocked the muzzle of the gun, Li Xiaohei seemed to have collapsed, and sat back in the trench. He hadn't fired this shot since the beginning of the attack. With this slave general.With his head, he is one step closer to being a hero in the eyes of his sweetheart!

Taking a breath, dragging his firecrackers, Li Xiaohei hurriedly climbed out of the ditch again, running towards Li Chengdong's body. At the same time, tens of thousands of Ming soldiers also carried bloody guns. The bayonet jumped out of the ditch, chasing and killing the defeated green battalion.

But at this juncture, the earth suddenly shook violently, and he turned his head back in horror. The sound of heavy footsteps brought up smoke and dust in the sky, and countless cavalry came into Li Xiaohe's eyes. The Eight Banners Iron Cavalry wore heavy armor, held up a heavy saber, and charged forward roaring like a wolf.

"Go back!"
