Chapter 2077 The Battle of Beiping in Qin and Qing Dynasties (1)

Chapter 2075: The Battle of Beiping between Qin and Qing Dynasties (1)

At Huang Taiji's suggestion, Nurhachi sent envoys to Sanhan and Japan, and at the same time sent Huang Taiji to lead an army to conquer Lulongsai.

Nurhachi only gave Huang Taiji 30,000 troops. It was not that he was reluctant to give more troops, but it was because Qin Hao in the front put too much pressure on him.

After the fall of Lulongsai, Youbeiping and Liaoxi were separated. Nurhachi could only use 200,000 troops to fight against Qin Hao's 250,000 troops.

The comprehensive combat strength of the Qin army is already higher than that of the Qing army, and its equipment is also better than that of the Qing army. If the total number of the Qing army is less than 170,000, Nurhachi is really not sure that he can withstand the fierce attack of the 250,000 Qin army.

 Hence, allocating 30,000 troops to Huang Taiji was Nurhaci’s limit. If there were any more, he might not be able to stop Qin Hao.

In Nurhachi's view, Fu Jian has already dispatched 70,000 troops, and Huang Taiji has led another 30,000 troops, for a total of 100,000 troops. Under attack from both sides, it should be easy to capture Lulongsai.

What Nurhachi didn't know was that Gongsun Xuanyuan had ordered Zhang Han to set up camp at Jieshi Road. His plan to attack Lulongsai from both sides could not be realized in the short term.

In addition, there are more than 250,000 Qin troops in Youbeiping. With the arrival of the Youzhou reorganized army in the rear, there are now a full 340,000 Qin troops in Youbeiping, which is exactly twice the strength of the Manchu army left behind.

This is a force that is enough to forcibly defeat the Manchu Qing Dynasty. If Huang Taiji cannot capture Lulong in time, the 200,000 Qing troops in Youbeiping will have nowhere to run even if they want to.

　　————

To the right of Beiping, the Qin army’s commander’s tent.

 Qin Hao received the news of the fall of Lulongsai later than Nurhachi. After all, Nurhachi was closer to Lulong, but this did not mean that Qin Hao's reaction speed was slower than his.

“My lord, General Gongsun sent a message from a flying pigeon. Lulongsai has been successfully captured. It only took less than a day.” Jiang Ji reported with excitement.

"good."

Qin Hao also showed a look of surprise. Xuanyuan's victory over Lulong was within his expectation, but it only took less than a day, which was somewhat beyond his expectation. This shows that the capture of Lulong went smoothly without any complications. ah.

It only took one day to break through, so Xuanyuan would have plenty of time to set up defenses, and Lulongsai's defense would be higher than expected. Even if the Qing army's plan to attack from both sides was realized, it would be impossible to break through Lulongsai. Such an easy thing.

“The Lulong fortress has been broken, the Manchu and Qing food routes have been cut off, and they have completely fallen into passivity. The next step is for our army to counterattack.”

Qin Hao's eyes were full of excitement and he ordered: "Send the order and order Bai Qi, Huo Qubing, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, and Wei Qing to attack immediately according to the original plan."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

Bai Qi, Huo Qubing and other five troops have been ready for a long time, waiting for Qin Hao's order to attack. Now the king's order is naturally like thunder and earth-shattering.

Among the five armies prepared by the Qin army, Bai Huosu's three troops were stationed on the front line, and Xue and Wei's two troops were hidden in the rear. The Manchus were also on guard against Bai Huosu's three armies, and they did not even know about Xue and Wei's troops. existence of the department.

 So, after Qin Hao's royal order was issued, Bai Huosu's three troops marched at the same time, but they did not launch an attack, but pretended to want to attack by force. Bai Qi's 70,000 troops, Su Dingfang's 70,000 troops, and Huo Qubing's 40,000 troops totaled a total of 180,000 troops, which already exceeded the total strength of the remaining Qing troops. This movement naturally frightened the Qing military generals everywhere. A jump.

Even Nurhachi thought that the location of Bai Suhuo's three troops was the main attack direction of the Qin army. After all, Qin Hao's central army had no intention of moving, but he never expected that two more groups would appear. army.

Xue Rengui and Wei Qing's troops took advantage of the attention of the Manchu and Qing armies to focus on Bai Qi's three armies on the front line. So these two strange troops found another way and suddenly rushed out from both wings, catching the unprepared Qing army by surprise.

 In just one day, Xue Rengui's troops defeated three villages in a row, killed 2,000 enemies and captured 2,000 prisoners, and moved the battle line ten miles eastward.

 In with with with 1,000 troops killed, 1,000 enemies were killed and 1,000 captured.

 Among them, the young general Xue Dingshan's performance was the most eye-catching. Not only was he the first to rush into Dazhai, but he also killed six Manchu captains and three generals in a row, making Wei Qing's unit the most credited.

Xue Rengui and Wei Qing's two hundred thousand troops suddenly joined the battlefield, catching the Manchu and Qing Dynasties off guard. The Manchu Qing's previous arrangements were to defend Bai Qi, Su Dingfang and Huo Qubing. The 170,000 troops could barely defend 240,000. Enough.

 But now the Qin army has an extra 100,000 troops, and its total strength has reached 340,000, which is twice as many as the Qing army. Naturally, the previous arrangement is inappropriate.

Xue Rengui and Wei Qing's troops seized the opportunity and destroyed the five strongholds first, while Bai Qi, Su Ding and Fang Huo Qubing struck later, taking advantage of the turmoil in the Qing army's morale, to attack with an iron fist and launch the most violent offensive.

Bai Qi and Su Dingfang both had 70,000 troops under their command. The military formation formed by the 70,000 troops could be said to be a black cloud pressing down on the city, no, on the stronghold. It seemed that no one had any desire to resist, and the offensive was It even covers the sky and the sun.

The Qin army's bows and arrows hit each other, causing a shower of arrows, and a round of flying rocks hitting them, causing meteorites to wash away the land, leaving no livestock behind.

Bai Qi and Su Dingfang did not need to adopt any strategy at all. Even if it was an upright attack, the Manchu Qing's Muzhai could not resist it even if it relied on geographical advantages.

In less than two hours, two more strongholds were breached. The defenders had no choice but to retreat to another stronghold in the rear to defend. However, Bai Su would send light cavalry to pursue them, so those who could really escape were able to escape. Just a few.

The situation on Huo Qubing's side was completely different from that of the other four armies. His troops were not as large as those of Bai Su and Xue Wei, but the advantage was that they were all cavalry, so he had no intention of attacking the stronghold from the beginning.

While the Qing army's stronghold was being attacked by their own side and had no energy to block the passage, Huo Qubing led 40,000 cavalry and drove straight in. They penetrated into the heart of the Qing Dynasty like a sharp sword, and stuck in the throat of the Qing Dynasty like a thorn.

Under the joint fierce attack of 280,000 Qin troops, the fifty-five strongholds established by Nurhachi were as fragile as half paper.

Seven villages were defeated in just one day. If this trend continues, it will only be a matter of time before all fifty-five villages are destroyed.

"How come the Qin army has an extra 100,000 troops? Then where did Qin Hao get the 100,000 troops?"

Nurhaci’s face was full of anger, and he roared uneasily and incomprehensively.

The 240,000 Qin army was already too much for him to withstand, and now there were an additional 100,000. The Qin army in Youbeiping became 340,000, which was twice as many as the Qing army at that time.

How can we fight this battle?
