Facing the slowly approaching Ming army, fierce and ruthless shouts rang out from behind the Qing army's formation, "Attack, advance, those who retreat will be killed! Those who turn back will be killed!"
The war drums were beaten, but the beating was a bit messy, but the Qing army, which was "immovable as a mountain", suddenly shouted and rushed towards the Ming army's battle formation.
Is this a real battle? Zhu Yongxing's eyes widened, he almost stood up on his horse, and his breathing became heavy. He looked at the surging crowd charging and fighting. Swords and guns were waved, flesh and blood flew everywhere, shouts of killing, and screams filled the air.
Yu Er. Thousands of people collided together, that scene——
Bai Wenxuan, who was in charge of commanding the general, frowned more and more. He could see more and more clearly that the Qing army rushing up were all auxiliary soldiers. Although they looked very brave, they were completely unable to shake the Ming army's front line.
The auxiliary soldiers with poor equipment and low combat skills were ruthlessly chopped down and stabbed over by the Ming army's armored soldiers. It was almost a one-sided massacre.
As the saying goes: A layman sees the excitement, an expert sees the door. Bai Wenxuan is a veteran on the battlefield. Naturally, his views and opinions are different from Zhu Yongxing's, and he also came to conclusions earlier than Zhu Yongxing.
"Is the Qing army going to attack from the side?" Bai Wenxuan felt nervous and quickly looked to both sides.
In fact, Bai Wenxuan had already made preparations, but the strange battle situation made him think a little wildly. The battlefield was not particularly broad, and after the Ming army's soldiers and auxiliary troops were spread out, there was not much space. It was impossible for the Qing army to come from underground
When Bai Wenxuan came out, he shook his head and gave another order to send more detective horses to ensure that no trace of suspicion was allowed to go unnoticed.
"The Qing army is going to attack the general, or His Highness?" Ma Bao also became suspicious and turned around to look from a distance. The Ming army's protection was very tight, so there should be no problem!
"Where did those Qing cavalry go?" Ma Zide stood on his horse and looked around, puzzled. In his opinion, the real opponents were those armored cavalry, so he paid special attention to them.
"There is no trace." Liu Zhen also had a question mark on his forehead. This battle was weird, it was really weird.
After the Ming army withstood the initial impact of the Qing army, they began to advance forward. The war drums were still unhurried, and Bai Wenxuan was still cautious and did not dare to easily disrupt the formation.
"We have the upper hand!" Zhu Yongxing sat back on the saddle and breathed a sigh of relief, but then stood up again and looked at the battlefield in disbelief.
Not only did they gain the upper hand, but the Qing army suddenly collapsed. The Qing army that had just launched a brave attack was suddenly defeated like a landslide. Thousands of Qing troops either surrendered on the spot, or retreated in panic, trampling on each other.
Has the medicine passed? Zhu Yongxing had such a thought for a moment, but something even more bizarre was yet to come.
A large number of Qing soldiers retreated towards the gate of the camp like an ebbing tide. They were so crowded that those in the back pushed those in front and those in front pushed against the gate. The Qing soldiers on the wall seemed to have no idea and just threw a few rolling logs down.
He knocked the stone and started to run away.
With a "boom", the wooden gate of the village was finally pushed down by the surging flow of people. The Qing soldiers trampled on it and fled towards the camp, wailing.
Everyone stared dumbfounded at the sudden changes on the battlefield. Through the village gate, one could see that the Qing army camp was already in chaos, and it was obvious that there was no ambush.
"Zhang Yong - actually abandoned the army and fled?" Bai Wenxuan did not dare to accept this fact. It was too incredible, but there was no other explanation for what he saw in front of him.
"Hey, let Zhang Yong be fooled." Ma Bao also reacted and regretted so much that his intestines were green. If this kind of thing happened, he would undoubtedly bear a lot of responsibility.
"Chase them, those Qing armored cavalry can't run far, it's better to kill them to vent their anger." Ma Zide had already grasped the saber and looked at Ma Bao anxiously.
Liu Zhen looked back and glanced in the direction of the flag. The flag finally changed. Bai Wenxuan was shocked but reacted quickly.
"Pursuit!" Ma Bao roared loudly, as if he wanted to vent the depression in his chest through his roar.
……………
There were thousands of these guys, but they were intimidated by less than 200 Qing soldiers, and they had no intention of resisting.
Zhu Yongxing looked at the Qing army auxiliary soldiers who were captured in groups, and felt very incomprehensible at first. But after being interrogated, he could only shake his head helplessly.
For this military operation, Zhang Yong and Xian Guoan brought a total of nearly 40,000 auxiliary soldiers, and now only more than 10,000 are left. The remaining auxiliary soldiers suffered from injuries, abuse, and injuries due to the harsh environment and discrimination in survival.
In the killing, all died. It can be said that these living people had a narrow escape from death. They were really scared.
Moreover, the Qing soldiers who were responsible for commanding and mobilizing also did some ideological work to boost their morale. For example: after this battle, they were upgraded to combat soldiers, who had enough to eat every day and military pay; after the battle began, Zhang Yong would
Lead a surprise attack with elite troops, and victory will be no problem...
Human nature is cowardly, and it is not uncommon in history to be willing to be a scapegoat, or to sit and wait to be stabbed. Even hundreds of years later, when the Pail Island Kingdom invaded, there was always this kind of "sorry for its misfortune, but anger for it."
" something happened.
What would I do if I was in that situation? Should I fight to the death, or should I live in an ignoble existence? One more day is a day, and one more moment is a moment.
Zhu Yongxing smiled bitterly, shook off this troubling thought, and took Zhang Yong's letter. After reading it, he couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.
A guy who regards the lives of soldiers as nothing, shamelessly asked me to be kind to the sick and wounded soldiers who stayed in the camp. I don't know what this guy is thinking.
"Zhang Yong still left a lot of food and grass. Apparently he was afraid that our army would become angry after falling into the trap, and seeing that all the food and grass were destroyed, he would become even more resentful and hateful. He would kill these injured people to vent his anger." Bai Wenxuan's face did not show the look of victory after victory.
Joy, on the contrary, looked depressed because he had fallen into a trick, and said in a low voice: "If you abandon the army and run away, your soldiers will inevitably feel the sadness of the rabbit dying and the fox. How can they not have resentment and injustice? By doing this, Zhang Yong can be regarded as buying people's hearts.
Lift."
Zhu Yongxing thought about it carefully and found that Zhang Yong must have thought this way. Leaving books and food would be an explanation to his subordinates, which would somewhat calm the dissatisfaction and contempt of the soldiers who abandoned the army and fled. If Zhang Yong was injured or killed, Zhang Yong would be killed.
You can blame the cruelty of the Ming army and reduce your own responsibility; if he survives the injury, he must have spread the word about the food request, and I am afraid some people will be grateful to him!
It's a pity that I didn't plan to kill the injuries, and your careful plan was in vain. Zhu Yongxing smiled lightly and threw Zhang Yong's letter to the ground. Don't underestimate the political and ideological work I want to carry out. Not only will these injuries not be
I am grateful to you, but I still want to be full of hatred for you and become a good soldier who bravely kills the enemy on the battlefield!
