1531. There are pursuers behind and interceptions in front.
This day was the day of the great defeat. The 140,000-strong Beijing Battalion was completely defeated by the Eight Banners soldiers with just one counterattack.
The three thousand battalions were all cavalry, and they immediately ran away in any direction to the south. The cavalry of the slaves also chased them. The fifth army camp could not run on two legs but four legs. They were beaten by the cavalry and infantry of the slaves.
The chase was brutal. They were mostly gangsters on the street, and they still had some survival skills in emergencies. They simply ran away. It was not easy to chase them now. Some of them even ran to the grassland.
Zhang Geda and Xinghe Tuanlian fled all the way, running at the front.
Now they met a four-wheeled carriage that had been waiting here in advance, and directly put the emperor into the carriage.
There are three soldiers sitting in the driver's seat in front of the carriage. He has two more soldiers outside the doors on both sides. There are also three soldiers on the open-air seats facing back behind the carriage, exactly one person.
These people were all wearing body armor, holding a revolver, and holding the handle on the carriage with the other hand. They looked around with vigilance. On the roof of the carriage, there were two soldiers holding old sleeve rifles, looking down at the surroundings.
Because the emperor was in the car, they did not dare to stand on the center roof of the car, but sat on the edge at the back. This high position made it easier to observe the surrounding situation.
Zhang Geda was attentive and knew that the emperor could not ride a horse for long distances. He would have to fall off the horse in the middle of the horse ride for two days and two nights.
Now that we have left Da'ankou for more than 300 miles, it will take at least two days to run back. The mountain road is not easy to walk.
So he had already prepared a carriage here in case of emergency.
It was only then that Chongzhen became frightened. He was trembling all over. If Xinghe Tuan Lian hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, he would have been captured.
He couldn't believe how could this happen, how could it be done like this.
Isn't this the army that swept across Mongolia in the Western Expedition? Who can tell me what this is all about?
As soon as the two sides fought, the Beijing camp collapsed. Is this a fucking show?
Now, he had no other thoughts in his mind except that the carriage was not fast enough and would be overtaken by the Jiannu slaves.
He opened the curtains and looked forward. There was a small window one foot wide in front. The drivers were located on both sides, not blocking the view.
When he saw Zhang Geda's serious expression, his heart skipped a beat.
It can be seen that the current situation is not optimistic.
Zhang Gaoda must have known that he was not out of danger, so he looked so serious. This guy always had the look of an old ruffian who needed a beating.
It really came to him as he thought. He felt the soldiers on the roof of the car stand up and step on the roof of the car.
"There are cavalry blocking the front," the soldiers on the car shouted loudly.
Chongzhen's heart immediately rose to his throat. He looked out the small window and saw five or six thousand Mongolian cavalry on the mountains in the distance, coming like a tide.
At this time, no matter how stupid Chongzhen was, he understood that this was a trap. Huang Taiji faked defeat. The purpose was to draw the Beijing camp out of the camp and defeat it in the field.
Chongzhen immediately regretted it. There have been too many such painful lessons. This is the case in Tieling, Kaiyuan. It is also the case in Liaoyang, Shenyang. Why don't I learn the lesson and make the same mistakes again?
He was so remorseful that he could hardly help but bang his head against the wall.
It's too late to say anything now.
When the 100,000 Mongolian cavalry retreated to the slave formation, they did not go to repair it. Instead, they spared a large circle and encircled it from behind. At this time, there were probably Mongolian cavalry blocking the southern retreat route.
Chongzhen's hands and feet felt numb in waves, his whole body was weak, and he was sweating profusely.
My life is at an end!
As the large group of people stopped, Chongzhen discovered to his horror that the road ahead was blocked by more than 5,000 Mongolian cavalry.
Obviously the Mongolians were also the vanguard and had just arrived here. He was also surprised by the Southern Emperor's prompt decision-making and how fast he ran without any delay. He was almost like Hou Jing's demeanor back then.
Hou Jing's 70,000-strong army crossed the Yangtze River and invaded the Liang Kingdom. Chen Qingzhi gathered 10,000 militiamen to fight against Hou Jing's army. At that time, Hou Jing saw from a distance that the two armies had just come into contact and started fighting. He immediately abandoned the 70,000-strong army and ran away. .
As long as he hesitated for a moment, he was captured. The 70,000-strong army collapsed instantly like the Beijing camp.
But when they saw the black piano-lacquered carriage painted with a five-clawed golden dragon, they knew they had caught a big fish. The car Zhang Gida prepared here was the car that Chongzhen used when he came out of customs. These are the only two cars with spring dampers. A trembling buggy.
The other car was occupied by Yang Fan. Yang Fan was naturally the best to pay tribute to the emperor. Otherwise, he would be impeached.
The decoration of this car is extremely luxurious and shows the royal style.
The Mongols had a lot of dealings with the Ming Dynasty, and they naturally knew that only the emperor could use the five-clawed golden dragon. They suddenly became excited. If this captured the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, it would be a great achievement.
However, when they saw the more than 3,000 cavalrymen in green clothes on the other side, their hearts skipped a beat.
Green-skinned soldiers! They are the regiment training soldiers who destroyed the Zhenglan Banner!
They still remember the shot that hit Huang Taiji's helmet. That person was the man in green skin.
They were very impressed, because the entire army of civilians was dressed in common people's attire, and only a hundred cavalry were green-skinned soldiers. It was them who, in front of an army of 400,000 from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, hacked to death all the armor of the Han army flag. .
Their murderous spirit and arrogant attitude are unforgettable.
Instead of one hundred, there were more than three thousand greenskins. This made them panic.
These guys are ruthless people who will kill all their opponents at the slightest disagreement.
Zhang Geda took out the metal flask from his arms, took a sip of strong wine, wiped the corners of his mouth, and rode forward alone.
"Which family's men are on the other side? Tell me your name." Zhang Geda shouted arrogantly.
"I am La'erhong Batulu of the Aohan tribe. As long as you hand over the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, this general, I will let you go." He said with some guilt.
He has seen before that these green skins are very powerful in combat, and he doesn't want to lose his soldiers.
Zhang Geda smiled contemptuously, "Let me go, hahaha,"
Zhang Geda seemed to have heard the funniest words.
"What the hell, Humbatulu, you are nothing, and you dare to show off in front of a certain family. Zoriktu, it would be better if you get out of here today. If you hesitate for a moment, I will twist your head off.
Kill all the people in your Aohan tribe."
His real name was Zhuolitu, and he was named Hongbatulu by Huang Taiji. Zhang Geda also had a copy of the information and knew who this Laer Hongbatulu was.
This was his capital to show off, but Zhang Geda spit in his face in front of him. His face suddenly turned red with anger.
"You go too far to bully others, and we are not easy to mess with..."
Zhang Geda is a master who can do anything but never beep. Before he finished grinding, he grabbed the horse's belly and rushed over with the group drill.
Zhang Goda opened the bow with both hands and emptied the gun chamber in an instant, and all sixteen bullets were sprayed out.
In order to prevent rapid shooting from causing the muzzle to jump up and shoot the bullets behind it into the sky, the regiment trainers invented a shooting position with the wrist flat, laying the revolver flat and firing forward.
In this way, even if the muzzle jumps, the bullet can be turned into a sweep.
This era is all about dense formations, and sweeping can cause the greatest damage.
