A decisive battle broke out in the Jiannu camp, but it did not turn back the Jiannu siege, because Nuerhaci was confident that he could defeat this Ming army with the two yellow flags.
After five fierce attacks, Jiannu had suffered heavy losses. Mang Gurtai wanted to continue the attack, but was stopped by Daishan.
Because their mission has been completed and all the Ming troops in Shenyang have been concentrated here, I believe Huang Taiji can easily succeed.
Because the Ming army was on the defensive side, the situation was much better than that of the Jiannu. They fought fiercely for most of the day, and the initial casualty statistics were less than 5,000.
As for Jiannu, not only the Han military camp and Baoyi Aha were wiped out, but also their armored flag soldiers had nearly 7,000 casualties, which was equivalent to losing one flag.
"General, this Jiannu is really desperate for his life. The brothers are exhausted, but they still have strength."
Although the defenders have an absolute advantage, compared to the physical exertion, I'm afraid they are no less than those of the siege. Tens of thousands of enemies are worth dozens or hundreds of kilograms of gold juice, especially the barrel of the Folang machine gun. The cannon needs to be reloaded, which is all physical work.
You Shigong knew that as long as it withstood Jiannu's previous strongest attacks, Shenyang would no longer be in danger of breaking the city.
But he still did not dare to underestimate the enemy and said:
"Just set up a pot to cook food under the city and fill the bellies of the brothers first. The slaves are not made of iron. They won't be able to fight for a while."
The city was soon filled with smoke. This scene was witnessed by all the slaves outside the city, especially Mang Gurtai, who felt as if he had suffered a great insult.
The Ming army huddled in the city to eat hot food, while they were nibbling dry food here. It was really annoying, but he could only sulk.
In the south of Shenyang City, more than 8,000 people of Huang Taiji's Zhengbai Banner were fully prepared, but the Ming army was indeed unprepared as he expected. Huang Taiji was secretly happy, victory or defeat depended on this one move!
As long as Shenyang is defeated, then I, Huang Taiji, will have the greatest military exploits. Let's see what Daishan can do to compete with me.
Although he did not bring any siege equipment, a city with extremely weak defense like this could not stop his troops at all!
"kill!"
With a loud shout, thousands of flag soldiers behind Huang Taiji swarmed out and rushed into the hands of Jiannu at the front, each holding a hook.
"Jiannu is coming, Jiannu is coming!"
Although the Ming army in the city discovered Jiannu, they did not attack Jiannu immediately because most of the artillery here had been taken away, and there were only less than ten general cannons and Hongyi cannons.
it's here.
There are less than 2,000 Ming troops left here. There is not enough space for one person to stand on this huge city.
"Hurry and report to the general, prepare your bows and arrows!"
Although the Ming army was small in number, it was not afraid of the slave establishment. Under the command of a guerrilla, it quickly entered into a state of counterattack against the slave establishment.
In order to ensure that Shenyang could be conquered in one fell swoop, Huang Taiji himself went to the front line to supervise and direct the battle.
"Give them all to me. We must conquer Shenyang City within half an hour."
…
Outside the Jiannu camp, the Ming army has slowly gained the upper hand due to its numerical advantage. Although Jiannu's combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the Ming army, it is still difficult for them to defeat four hands with just one fist, especially in this kind of close combat.
"Fourth brother, there are too many Ming soldiers. We can't hold them anymore. Let's retreat first!"
Tang Gu also wanted to run away, but he was more afraid of his father. If he ran away like that, he would be put under house arrest even if he didn't die when he returned.
Seeing his brother's hesitation, Abai knew what he was worried about, so he quickly persuaded him:
"Fourth brother, when did you think so much? This Ming army is different from the past. Now we listen to my brother. There is still a glimmer of hope, otherwise we will definitely die."
Although Abai and Tanggu are also the sons of Nuerhachi, the nine sons of Longsheng are all different, let alone him?
These two people have no ambitions, are greedy for life and are afraid of death. They are just people waiting to die. Compared to people like Daishan and Huang Taiji, they are nothing but shit. Mang Gurtai is at least fierce in fighting, and they are really useless.
.
Xiong Tingbi also noticed them, and he immediately said to a general next to him:
"Those are the generals who established the slaves. Kill them and this battle will be won!"
General Biao immediately took the order and headed towards them with hundreds of cavalry.
When Tang Gugu and Abai saw a Ming army cavalry coming straight towards them, they hurriedly asked their guards to stop them.
"Fourth brother, if you don't leave, it will be too late!"
Abai was about to burst into tears at this time. He really didn't want to die.
Finally, with Abai's strong persuasion, Tang Gugu finally made up his mind to run away, but by this time it was already too late. Xiong Tingbi sent thousands more cavalry, and there was already a vague tendency to encircle him.
"Retreat quickly, retreat!"
When the military order to retreat was given, Jiannu was completely thrown into disarray. Those who were also afraid of death immediately fled on horseback. The Ming army instantly showed an overwhelming advantage.
Gushan Ezhen, another man with the yellow flag, learned that Tang Gugu had actually given the order to retreat. He was immediately furious. This was a critical moment. Such a hasty retreat would lead to a big defeat.
"Don't mess up, don't mess up, retreat to the east!"
By now, the Eight Banners had lost their battle, and Sangxi was powerless. He could only try to save as many people as possible and withdraw from the battlefield.
Under his rallying, most of the slaves quickly gathered eastward. Sangxi cursed angrily:
"Abai and Tang Gugu, these two cowards, I must report to the Great Khan truthfully!"
Under his leadership, the Jiannu fought and retreated without causing a collapse. Xiong Tingbi saw that they were not in chaos, so he did not send anyone to chase them. After all, there were still thousands of Jiannu in this group, so he had no confidence.
Eat.
But Abai and Tanggu couldn't care about this. They had already fled with dozens of guards, but their escape route was to the west, which was exactly the opposite of the large army of Jiannu.
Seeing that Jiannu had begun to retreat, Xiong Tingbi's general Biao also pursued him with more than a hundred Ming army cavalry.
"Third brother, there are Ming troops chasing us from behind, what should we do?"
At this time, Abai didn't know what to do. He didn't respond to his brother at all. Instead, he whipped the horse whip several times and ran forward.
"Brothers, there are big fish in front of us. If we catch them, we will have enough food and clothing, and we will be promoted and make a fortune!"
Abai and Tanggu became more and more uncomfortable as they ran. Is the road getting narrower and narrower? And there are more and more trees and bushes around. They are worried. Isn't this a dead end?
Sure enough, after the two of them ran five miles away, there was really no way ahead. The two of them looked at each other with despair.
"Hahahaha, look where you are going!"
Seeing the Ming army with their bows and arrows ready to shoot them, Abai quickly shouted:
"I wish to surrender, I wish to surrender!"
Tang Gugu looked at his brother in shock and said in disbelief:
"Third brother, do you know what you are doing?"
Abai didn't answer him at all, he just knelt down and begged for mercy.
Upon seeing this, Tang Gugu had no choice but to put down the long knife in his hand, kneel down and ask for surrender!
