Li Yuanyin and Li Laiheng’s 20,000 reinforcements arrived at Nanzhai.
At this time, Ma Jinzhong's troops were at an extremely dangerous juncture. The Qing army captured Beizhai and killed Kuang Guogong Pi Xiong. They were extremely arrogant. Zhang Yong was also a veteran general and was very good at boosting morale. Nan Yikui, Zhao Guangrui, Tong
Tou, Wang Jinbao and other powerful generals from Gansu and Shaanxi green camps stormed the Ming army camp like chicken blood. Ma Jinzhong and Li Zhihua gradually couldn't resist.
Zhao Guangrui, the commander-in-chief of Xing'an in the Qing Dynasty, rushed to the wall. He was a fan of officials and was eager to make meritorious deeds. The Zhao family has been serving as generals for generations. His uncle Zhao led the army and died for the Ming Dynasty in the Battle of Zunhua. Unexpectedly, he became a traitor. This man himself
He has returned to his hometown to take care of his elderly mother. The Qing government recruited him to serve as an official three times. He resisted the temptation twice and did not go, but agreed to the third time. Being an official is a great achievement. He has made many military exploits and his hands are stained by the Shaanxi-Sinxi Rebel Army.
blood.
Seeing that Zhao Guangrui was coming, Li Zhihua led his troops to fight. He was a military general who had been converted from the civil service. His martial arts skills were not as good as Zhao Guangrui's, but he was brave enough to fight to the death. Upon seeing this, the Qing general Tong Tou secretly fired an arrow and shot Li Zhihua in the left chest.
, slowly fell to the ground.
"Commander, the stronghold can't be defended anymore, retreat quickly", a confidant advised Ma Jinzhong.
Hearing this, Ma Jinzhong cut off the heads of his confidants with one sword, "Listen up, brothers. If you can't defend Nanzhai, I will die in Nanzhai. Anyone who shrinks from the battle will be killed without mercy. This is where Ma and his brothers died for their country."
Place!"
After saying that, he picked up a big sword and attacked the Qing army. The general is the courage of the soldiers. If the commander dares to fight, the three armies will move forward. All his subordinates will follow Ma Jinzhong and fight to the death with the Qing army.
Li Laiheng said to Li Yuanyin: "Uncle Guangchang, Uncle Wuchang can't stand it any longer, let's hurry up!"
Li Yuanyin, who was a few years older than Li Laiheng, was very strategic and said: "Marquis Xingguo, if we go directly to the stronghold to support us, we will at most be able to repel the Qing army, but we will not be able to defeat them. We have issued a military order to the supervising country. If Zhang Yong is not defeated, we will not survive."
".
Although these two young generals are young, their titles are not low. Li Yuanyin is the adopted son of Li Chengdong. After Li Chengdong died, he was demoted one rank to Guangchang Bo. Li Laiheng is the adopted son of Li Chixin. After Li Chixin died of illness, he was demoted one rank to the rank of Guangchang Bo.
To rejuvenate the country.
"Then what should we do according to Guangchang Bo's opinion?"
"According to my wishes, we each lead an army to the flanks of Nanzhai, and attack the Qing army from the east to the east. We will definitely defeat Zhang Yong."
"Good! Just do it!"
The two young generals moved east and west, sneaking around to the flank of Nanzhai, firing cannons into the sky, and killed the Qing army who was attacking the stronghold.
At this time, most of the Qing army had already invaded the stronghold, and Zhang Yong had less than ten thousand people with him.
"Not good", Zhang Yong growled when he saw this.
Zhang Yong is such a good man, he is calm in the face of danger and immediately orders: "Change the formation and set up a circular formation!"
When the Qing army attacked the stronghold, they formed a very sparse formation, which quickly shrank into a circle after receiving orders. This round formation was a common defensive formation used by the Ming army. Zhang Yong was originally a Ming general, and most of the Gansu and Shaanxi green camps were surrendered by the Ming Dynasty.
With his background, he is naturally proficient in Ming army formations. There are even small mandarin duck formations set up inside their circular formation. If Qi Shaobao saw it, he would probably be pissed to death.
"Dong dong dong!"
The Qing army beat the retreat drum, and sergeants continued to retreat from the stronghold, and the size of the circular formation became larger and larger.
Li Laiheng was anxious. If all the Qing troops were to withdraw from the stronghold, the battle would be difficult to fight. He personally led 800 soldiers into the formation.
"Bang bang bang!"
The Qing army's guns rang out.
On a snowy day, ordinary bird cannons are not easy to fire, but Zhang Yong won the trust of Emperor Shunzhi, and his troops were equipped with self-generated fire cannons, which were not affected by rain or snow.
Since the Ming army began to equip self-generating fire guns on a large scale, the Qing army also began to equip them. The Manchu and Qing Dynasties also had the book "Illustrated Description of Weapons". They also had a group of foreign friends such as Nan Huairen and Tang Ruowang to create self-generating fire guns.
It's not difficult. What's difficult is money and food. With years of war, the Qing government, like Zhu Hengjia, was short of money.
Soldiers were constantly being hit by fire cannons. Li Laiheng's eyes turned red, and he galloped into the enemy formation, stabbing the fire cannon wielder with a spear in his hand.
Li Yuanyin also broke into the Qing formation. He had the foresight to rush straight to the center of the circle, where Zhang Yong's flag was.
Zhang Yong was shocked. Most of his army was in the camp. Although they had beaten the drums to retreat, there were only more than 10,000 sergeants in the camp. After attacking the camp for half a day, they were exhausted and couldn't resist Li Yuanyin's new force.
The Ming army broke into the commanding flag position.
Zhang Yong is a tiger general. Although there are few soldiers around him, he is not timid and gathers 300 soldiers to fight against Li Yuanyin.
However, Li Yuanyin refused to fight him, and killed Zhang Yong's handsome flag with a knife.
"Zhang Yong is dead," Li Yuanyin shouted.
"Zhang Yong is dead", "Zhang Yong is dead"?? There are constant shouts.
The flag fell down, and voices of "Zhang Yong is dead" were heard everywhere. The morale of the Qing army collapsed, and they turned around and ran away, forming a mess.
"Follow me and retreat," Nan Yikui, the commander-in-chief of the Qing Dynasty, roared.
"Want to run away? How can it be that easy?"
Ma Jinzhong shot an arrow but missed. He was furious and said to a dozen gunmen around him: "Quick, shoot that guy to death for me."
"Bang bang bang!"
With more than a dozen gunshots, Nan Yikui fell heavily.
Zhang Yong was very decisive and immediately retreated with the troops around him. He personally moved to the rear. After retreating for thirty miles, he gathered the defeated army. Only 16,000 of the 30,000-strong army remained.
I wanted to retreat, but I didn't dare. The person who led the siege on the mountain was Aixinjueluo Wu Dahai, the cousin of Emperor Shunzhi.
We had no choice but to set up camp and hold on while asking for help, and Hong Chengchou sent reinforcements.
Hearing that Li Yuanyin and Li Laiheng defeated Zhang Yong, Zhu Hengjia was very happy and wrote a poem praising them:
Zan Er General Li
The murderous aura of the mountain is filled with sorrow among the grass and trees,
Who can defend Luntai for the country?
A young Suan Ni swallows a tiger and leopard,
A shameful white-haired old talent.
??
On the unnamed peak of Sui Mountain, Wu Dahai, Ga Dahun, thousands of miles high, Zhang Pengcheng looked embarrassed.
In the past few days, the Ming army's offensive has been too fierce. After one wave was retreated, another wave came back. Of the 12,000 remaining soldiers, there are now only more than 7,000 left.
"Prince Jing of the country has ordered that those who surrender will be spared from death!"
"Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
"Those who surrender will avoid death"??
The shrill and long shouts echoed in the valley. It had little effect on the more than 5,000 Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners on the mountain, but the morale of the two thousand Green Camp soldiers was lost. One after another, some people came down the mountain to surrender. It was thousands of miles high, and Zhang Pengcheng did not dare to surrender.
Their families are still in the area controlled by the Qing court.
"Commander, I will protect you and break out of the encirclement," Ga Dahun said to Wu Dahai.
Wu Dahai silently sharpened his sword. This was a habit he had maintained for more than thirty years. Other things could be left to his subordinates, but the sword must be sharpened by himself. Only in this way can he become familiar with his sword, and it will be more convenient for him to kill people.<
/p>
"The Ming army's siege is too thick and they can't break out. However, the Ming army has attacked so fiercely in the past few days. It seems that our reinforcements have arrived. As long as we persist for a few more days, there will be a turn for the better." Wu Dahai said calmly, no matter how critical the situation is
, there will never be hesitation, fear, helplessness and despair on this commander's face.
Not to mention a few days, I didn’t persist even for one day.
On February 16, the twenty-fifth year of Chongzhen's reign in the Ming Dynasty, Wuyuan led the mountain annihilation battle to its final moments.
Liu Wenxiu, Bai Wenxuan, Zhao Yong, Gao Minggui, Hao Shangjiu, Zhang Chengwu and other generals Wang Guoxi bravely climbed the mountain.
"Wonderful victory!"
The Ming army attacked the top of the mountain, and Gao Wanli knelt down to ask for surrender. Zhang Pengcheng died in the rebellion, and Ga Dahun had his head chopped off by Zhang Chengwu.
Aixinjueluo Wu Dahai was killed by Gao Minggui Formation.
Yes, formation beheading. When Gao Minggui beheaded Wu Dahai, Wu Dahai was exhausted, covered in blood, and unable to fight. With one blow, his head was missing.
King Jing of the State Supervisor Jinguo Yu said that after hearing that Gao Minggui had killed Wu Dahai, he immediately promoted Enping Bo Gao Minggui to Enpinghou.
Autumn turns to winter, the grass and trees wither, and the Aixinjueluo family loses another man.
