Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 327 Azig's retreat

Thousands of archers from the Ming army in the Beiying area shot fiercely at the Qing army charging in. Arrows rained all over the sky, and the arrows from the Qing army fell to the ground one after another.

But the Tartars are extremely powerful in fighting, and none of them are afraid of death. It is common for people to bleed and lose their heads, so they raised their shields and continued to charge forward.However, even with shields, they couldn't stop the arrows that penetrated everywhere, and the troops of the Qing army were constantly hit by arrows and fell to the ground.

But the bravery of the Qing army is also rare. Although the casualties were so heavy, the momentum of the charge was not stopped at all. This is how the prestige of the Eight Cavalry in the early Qing Dynasty came out of fighting.

Azig, the British prince outside the camp gate, was even more dismissive of the Ming army's bow and arrow ambush. He was puzzled that the artillery fire that the Ming army relied on just didn't go off. The pseudo-emperor's shells were exhausted, which is why the Ming army never bombarded Luoyang, and the few broken guns left to protect the imperial camp are still useless?

Azige thought he was smart, and saw the Qing army pouring into the Ming camp like a tide. At this time, he also heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing from the South camp. Azige seemed to see the dawn of victory, and even The scene of capturing or beheading Zhu Yousong flashed past.

His monk, Kexi, personally supervised the battle. Countless Qing troops rushed into the Ming camp like a flood. One group fell in front, and another group came up later. Also proud of it.

At this time, the two princes of the Qing court thought that if the [-] to [-] Qing troops attacked back and forth, even if the [-] Ming troops in the Ming camp were all archers, how many shots could they overturn?All rushed in, the false emperor could hardly fly, and this credit must not fall into the hands of Duoduo and Shang Geng Zhongming. Their military strength is clearly superior.

Therefore, Monk Azige restrained his excitement before the victory, and immediately slashed his sword on a high place outside the camp. Watching the Qing army rushing in, he was full of confidence and felt that the battle was safe.

Unexpectedly, although many Qing troops rushed into the big camp, most of them became casualties when they went in, and they didn't even break through the wall. That is to say, what they rushed into was only the outer camp that Zhu Yousong arranged for them.

However, Monk Azige thought well, no matter how good the Ming army's archers are, there is a limit.It's just that they didn't expect that after the bow and arrow, they would be greeted by Zhu Yousong's even more powerful ace division, the imperial cavalry. All of them have dual weapons, and their combat effectiveness has been tested several times in actual combat.

After the Ming army's arrow rain, when the Qing army approached the half-man-high fence, this team charged from the left and right sides.

Far away, the Ming army's iron cavalry used bows and arrows. When they rushed to the front, they all changed into uniform long spears.

Two gun walls composed of thousands of horses rushed forward together, like two giant chariots, roaring and rolling over from the left and right directions. These Qing troops had only heard of the imperial camp before, and this is the first time they have seen it today. He charged forward with his horse and slashed at the Ming army with the sharp blade in his hand.

However, the gun wall formed by the soldiers of the Ming army advanced and retreated together, and the casualties were filled in time. The soldiers of the Ming army stabbed and stabbed the Qing army wildly. Together with the fierce force of the galloping horse, one shot can penetrate several Qing troops like piercing mutton skewers.

The Qing army fell down in rows and batches, just like the scene of a wheat field harvested in summer. Don’t look at the endless wheat, but when a harvester drives in, only the portion of the wheat is shoveled, and it won’t take long for all the wheat to fall Turns out, not to mention that there are two giant chariots now, outflanking the left and right, invincible, and there is another wall in front of it, even though it is only half a person high, the Qing army's troops can't fly over without wings, and if they don't want to be stabbed, they have to run for their lives.

Therefore, the Qing army fled one after another, and of course the casualties could not escape.These Qing troops who rushed into the Ming camp of the Qing army aggressively, persisted for less than an hour, and were cleaned out by the Ming army like garbage.

However, getting out was not as smooth as rushing in. Because of the lack of unified command, those behind rushed in, and those inside ran out, colliding and trampling each other, causing countless deaths and injuries.

So far, it can be regarded as the first charge of the Qing army in the Beiying area. It was beyond the expectation of Duduo and Shang Kexi, and it failed!
"The False Emperor's imperial camp is indeed well-deserved, but they only have a few thousand men and horses. If you charge me again and smash into the wall, the False Emperor will be captured. All the gold, silver, jewelry, and women inside will be yours!" After a short rest, The second king gave the order to charge again.

"Come on, kill, capture Zhu Yousong alive, don't let the false emperor escape..." The Tartars and the miscellaneous names of the Qing army rushed into the camp of the Ming army again shouting.

Thinking of gold, silver, jewels and women, the Qing army's eyes are blue, the rich are better than the princes, that is to say, the princes are the richest, and this woman is not an ordinary village woman wild flower, but an emperor's woman, not only many but also beautiful , It is conceivable that this is so attractive to the Qing army, it is enough to make them rush forward desperately.

Therefore, the Qing army's second charge was even more ferocious.

However, when the Qing army rested and organized the charge, the Ming army in the battalion was not idle. The casualties were withdrawn in time, and the bows and arrows were replenished in time, and they were ready for them.

Therefore, the general procedure is the same as the first time. First, the bow and arrow start, and then the imperial cavalry charge to sweep the tail. This time, the Qing army persisted for a longer time, but the end result was the same, and the Ming army cleaned it out of the camp like garbage. .

After two charges, there were corpses inside and outside the Ming camp. Of course, most of them belonged to the Qing army, and there were also a few Ming army dotted among them. It was too late to clean up, and the corpses were all over the ground, and even piled up. To dye the boundless night red.

After the two charges, after a rough estimate, the Qing army lost more than 5000 troops. Of course, these casualties are secondary, because this time the monk Azig is happy to bring 8 to [-] horses. According to such a charge, it is still enough It took another four or five times for the plenary army to be wiped out. Although there were many troops, the key was that the morale of the Qing army was seriously frustrated.

Hearing the shouts of killing from the South Camp, Prince Yu Duoduo and Geng Zhongming only had 3 troops, and they were also two princes who personally supervised the troops. There were [-] to [-] troops, but they couldn't even break through half of the wall. It's really embarrassing!

Moreover, if this great achievement is taken away by Doduo and the others, Prince Ying and King Zhishun will have to walk with their faces in their crotches in the future.

Thinking of this, Monk Azig was delighted that the two princes of the Qing court roared at the same time. After a rest of about a meal, they organized their troops and made a third charge. This time the two princes personally led the team and took the lead. .
