?After Cheng Jin heard this, he was also surprised. He had not even tried his best to fight, but the Mongolian army was ready to escape. This was too bad.-- .
Because the Mongolian army has finally gathered together now, Cheng Jin originally planned to wait for this batch of ammunition and supplies to arrive before launching an all-out attack on Chahar in Xianghuang Banner, inflicting heavy losses on the Mongolian army. Therefore, it has been They restrained the Chinese army and only allowed them to fight the Mongolian army in the area around Chahar, Zhenghuang Banner. They really did not attack the Mongolian army excessively, but they were afraid of scaring them away.
Although the Chinese army has won several battles now, it has not dealt a big blow to the Manchu-Mongolian coalition. If the Mongolian army escapes now, the main force of the alliance flags is still there, and there will be no more to conquer the Mongolian alliance flags in the future. There will be less trouble, so the Mongolian army must not be allowed to run away like this.
So Cheng Jin immediately made a decision and immediately launched an attack on Chahar, Xianghuang Banner, because Cheng Jin considered that if the Manchu and Mongolian coalition forces retreated to Chahar, Xianghuang Banner, then the attack on the transport team would be lifted. There is no need for him to rescue the transport team, and after the Mongolian army retreats to Chahar, the large group of people cannot leave easily. They have to stay for a day or two to prepare, so while Mongolia can Before the army can escape, an immediate attack on Chahar with Yellow Banner can still deal a heavy blow to the Manchu-Mongolian coalition forces. Moreover, now that the 15th Army has entered the Chahar area, the Chinese Army also occupies an absolute advantage in terms of military strength. Advantages.
Therefore, Cheng Jin immediately ordered that the troops of the rescue transportation team immediately turn around to attack Chahar in Xianghuang Banner. At the same time, he sent people to notify the transportation team and another division stationed in Chahar in Zhenghuang Banner, asking them to all attack Chahar in Xianghuang Banner. Chahar moved in the direction, joined himself, and launched an attack on the Manchu-Mongolian coalition forces together.
After Huang Shengwu understood the cause and effect, he did not dare to be careless and immediately ordered the entire army to hit the road and rush to Chahar with a yellow flag.
As for the changes in the actions of the Chinese Army, the banner leaders of the Manchu-Mongolian Allied Forces were not aware of it at all, because although they now knew how terrifying the Chinese Army was, the Chinese Army had been marching under the Yellow Flag Chaha some time ago. Fighting near Seoul, this also created an illusion for the Manchu and Mongolian coalition forces. Although the Chinese army's combat effectiveness is very strong, it is mainly based on infantry, so its mobility is not enough. And it is a full cavalry. If you want to escape, you still have to fight. It can be done.
Therefore, after returning to Chahar, Xianghuang Banner, the banner owners were preparing to retreat, and at the same time, they held a meeting to discuss countermeasures. The three alliances of Zhelimu, Yaowuda, and Zhuosotu had a total of twenty-six banners, and the banner owners of each banner Including Shuosei, Bolo, and Yue Le, there were twenty-nine people in total. After discussing for a day, they finally decided to abandon the Chahar area, the coalition forces were disbanded, and the flag owners of each alliance returned to their own flag areas, and Shuo Sai, Bolo, and Yue Le were taken in by the Zhelimu League. As for what to do if the Chinese army attacked the flags of each alliance, the meeting did not discuss it. Everyone thought of their own ways.
Two flag owners brought few people, so after the meeting, they immediately left Chahar and returned to their own flag areas. However, the other alliance flag owners did not move and decided to prepare for the night. They will wait until early tomorrow morning to leave, but everyone has their own ulterior motives and their own plans. Some people are planning how to contact the Chinese army to discuss surrender. Others are thinking that if the Chinese army comes, they should move their entire family there to avoid it. At the same time, they are gathering in twos and threes. Together, they discussed quietly what to do.
But overnight, the situation changed dramatically. Early the next morning, Wukeshan received a report that the Chinese army had reached the city.
It turned out that the Chinese troops from all walks of life set off immediately after receiving Cheng Jin's order. After a day and night of rapid marching, before dawn, they all gathered near Chahar City with a yellow flag, and the troops of the First Army also
Ammunition was immediately replenished.
Seeing that the Manchu and Mongolian troops are still in the city, Cheng Jin is also relieved. Now I can't let you go. At this time, the total strength of the Chinese army has reached two divisions, three brigades, and one cavalry division.
The number of troops was about 50,000, and Cheng Jin also immediately allocated troops, ordering the first
The division, the 5th Brigade, the 19th Brigade, and the 29th Brigade respectively guarded the four gates of Chahar City with the Yellow Banner. The Cavalry Division was divided into three teams and four gates responded. The Fifth Division was the general reserve. However, due to the rush of time,
The Chinese troops on all sides had no time to dig trenches and arrange them, so they had to form formations to fight.
After Wu Keshan heard the report, he was also shocked. He hurriedly went to the city with other banner leaders to take a look. Sure enough, he saw that the people and horses of the Chinese Army were all around him, and there were so many people. Many people were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Wu Keshan was also a little nervous, and everyone regretted it. It would have been better if they had left overnight yesterday, but what should they do now?
Fortunately, Shuosei and others were still clear-headed and immediately said to Wukeshan: "Prince Zhuoliketu, now we are surrounded by the Chinese army, and the city cannot be defended at all, so we can only take advantage of them before they have dug it."
We have prepared the trenches, prepared the position, rushed out of the city immediately, fought desperately to break through, and maybe still had a chance to survive. If we wait for the Chinese army to build the position, we will have no choice but to wait and die!"
Before Wu Keshan could answer, Wenbu said in a trembling voice: "It is impossible for us to defeat the Chinese army. Breaking out of the city is a dead end. We should stay in the city first and then make plans!"
Bolo said angrily: "Standing in the city is a dead end. Such an earthen city cannot withstand the artillery bombardment of the Chinese army. Only by fighting out of the city and desperately breaking through can there be a chance of survival!"
Gulusiqi preached: "If we can't defend the city, then let's make peace with the Chinese army. We might as well just surrender to the Chinese army!"
Yue Le said angrily: "Useless trash, greedy for life and afraid of death, how can you be considered a hero of Mongolia? If Genghis Khan had a soul in heaven, he would never admit that there are descendants like you!"
Gulusqibu was also embarrassed and angry by Yue Le, and he also retorted: "Of course we Mongolian warriors are not afraid of death, but we will never die for you Manchus. If you have the ability, go and fight the Chinese army yourself."
Try your best, why are you fleeing to Mongolia to escape? You Manchus can't defeat the Chinese army, but you want to drag us Mongols along and die with you. We won't do such a thing!"
Yue Le was also irritated by his words. To be honest, Yue Le had endured it for a long time in the past few days, so he clenched the handle of the knife and said, "What did you say!"
Of course Gulusqibu was not afraid of him. He also held the hilt of his knife and sneered: "Why, what can you do to me after I said it? We are Mongols, you are Manchus, you Manchus
If you can, settle your grievances with the Han people yourself. Why do you want to flee to Mongolia? Why do we Mongolians have to sacrifice our lives for you Manchus!"
Yue Le couldn't help it any longer. He took a step forward and was about to draw his sword, but at this moment, he heard a loud "boom" and the city wall seemed to tremble.
The pungent smell of sulfur.
After the smoke cleared, they saw that about ten steps to the left of the two men, a gap half the size of a desktop had been blown open in the adobe city wall, and several Mongolian soldiers and a banner leader near the gap were killed.
The explosion was bloody and bloody, and six or seven people around him were injured by the shrapnel splashed by the explosion.
The other flag owners also felt a chill in their hearts. They originally thought that there was a city wall to defend and they could withstand it for a while, but now they realized that it turned out that the city wall was not reliable at all.
At this time, Shuosai took two steps forward and said loudly: "You have all seen it, such a city wall cannot withstand the bombing of the Chinese army at all, and the city cannot be defended at all. Now we can only escape with our lives if we break through desperately."
God, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard two explosions, "Boom, Boom," which were almost connected, both exploding around Shuosei. As a result, Shuosei was immediately engulfed in a cloud of smoke.
At this time, there was chaos on the city wall, and the Chinese army's artillery shells also fell one by one. The bombers all jumped off the city wall and hid in the city. At this time, there was no need for Bolo and Yue Le.
If we mobilize again, everyone will know that Xiaoshou is in the city
It was a dead end and we had no choice but to break out. However, at this time, the banner owners in the city were already a little panicked. No one could care about anyone else. They were all gathering their troops in a chaotic manner, looking for war horses, and then
Find a nearby exit point from the city and kill outside the city.
Although the Chinese army marched lightly in Mongolia this time, because the terrain of the grassland was flat and not difficult to walk, the Chinese army still brought sixteen heavy artillery pieces in case of unexpected events, and they have indeed come in handy now.
, four artillery pieces were assigned to each side of the city wall, and there were also
There were dozens of other artillery pieces, all firing together and bombarding them. However, this earthen city wall made of mud could not withstand the bombardment of the artillery. After a while, several gaps were opened in each section of the city wall.
The soldiers of the Chinese Army immediately launched a ground attack on the city wall.
At this moment, the Mongolian troops also rushed out of the city gate or the gaps in the city wall on horseback, and broke out outside the city. Then the two sides started a fierce battle outside the city.
This battle is not a situation where the Chinese army defends and the Mongolian army attacks, but the two sides attack each other, because the Chinese army did not expect that the Mongolian army would fight out of the city. At this time, the Chinese army's formation was already full.
The parts were scattered, and it was too late to readjust to the defensive formation, so it was too late.
They can only attack with attack, with head-to-head confrontation, but the soldiers of the Chinese army have not experienced this kind of face-to-face hand-to-hand combat. Although this time it is against cavalry, they are not afraid at all. They each follow their own battle formations and hold up their arms.
With muskets, they rushed forward to face the Mongolian army. Please come to see the first release without advertisements--.
