When Hong Chengchou returned to the Hubei battlefield, the Qing army besieged Macheng County for four or five days under the command of Lewhn. Although the Qing army gathered nearly 80,000 troops, more than 150 artillery, more than 5,000 thousand, more than 5,000 thousand, more than 5,000 The famous fire soldiers, and gathered the Lecs, Shangshan, Blue Bye, Ahanhan Kang, Geng Zhongming, Liu Liangzuo and other generals launched a violent attack to Macheng County again and again, but under the stubborn blocking of the merchant army, It is still impossible to attack Macheng, on the contrary, it also caused heavy casualties to the Qing army.
Hong Chengchou first ordered that the Qing army in the north of Dabie Mountain was ordered to withdraw from Guifu, and ordered the Gushan Er Mountain to stand in Gushan Er Shan, who was stationed in Guifu. Beijing might have regulated him to return north in recent days, so it must be prepared at all times. Once the order of Beijing, you do n’t have to report to yourself. You can first led the army to start, and then send someone to notify yourself.
The reason for this is of course prepared for the support of Beijing, because if the Qing army set off from Guizhoufu, it would only take about ten days to drive back to Beijing, and it also said that they did not do their best. What is the matter, and Hong Chengchou is afraid of affecting the military's heart, and dare not announce to the entire army. It only says that there is a secret order in the court, and it cannot be leaked. The crowds will not dare to ask more.
The next day Hong Chengchou rushed to the front line, found a chance, and told the news to Lec Hun in private. Because his identity is different from the people, he cannot hide him, and there are many things in the future. Cedar Hun cooperated.
After listening to Hong Chengchou's speaking, Lechuman couldn't help but be surprised, because he was the grandson of Nurhachi, regarding Shengjing as his hometown, and he was very nervous when he heard that Shengjing was attacked. : "Handsome, what should we do now?"
Hong Chengchou comforted him: "Dorobel, I have been prepared for the return soldiers in Aishan, who was stationed in Guizhou, and only waited for the court's order. Urgent. And we now leak this matter to prevent the army from shaking. In addition, we must step up to attack Macheng and strive to attack Macheng before the court's order is issued to eliminate the business army of Hubei. "
After listening to Hong Chengchou's words, Lecdehho also knew that this can only be the same. He put all his energy in the battle to attack Macheng.
Now the merchant army is only the county seat of Macheng in the Hubei area, and at this time, there are only nine divisions in Macheng County, and the rest of the divisions. After entering the Dabie Mountain, there are only less than 8,000 people in the current strength of the Nine Division, and Li Dingguo and Huang Qingwen have also stayed in the county seat to command defense. Several attacks on the Qing army repeatedly repelled the Qing Army. Two times were captured into the city, but they were eventually retired by the merchant army.
On the second day when Hong Chengchou arrived at the front line, Lecdehho also immediately commanded the Qing army and launched a fierce attack on Macheng County. At this time, Lechun also had a fire in his heart, thinking about attacking Macheng County as soon as possible, It is also good for the merchant army of Hubei, so the order of the Qing army was very severe. The Qing army of any team siege was not allowed to retreat without orders.
So under the strict order of Lewedhon, the Qing army's offensive was more fierce than a few days ago, and the artillery of both sides was constantly bombarding and desperately rushed to Macheng County.
After the gunfire bombardment, at this time, the walls of Macheng County were also damaged, and the protection capacity was greatly reduced. Therefore, many gaps were broken by the Qing army soon.
In the other wall section, the Qing army was still struggling to climb the attack, and the soldiers of the merchant army were on the city walls, and they did not let it go. The battle was extremely fierce from the beginning.
Relying on their own people, the Jun Army turned in turn, as if they were not afraid of death at all.
Before and after, the moment is constantly. The merchant army relies on its own advanced weapons and favorable terrain, fighting for defense, artillery hitting, firing, throwing grenades, fighting with bayonet, even punching and kicking, bite teeth, teeth bite, bite teeth, bite teeth, bite teeth, bite teeth, bite,
But never take a step back. The two sides have long attacks, or melee, shooting, explosion sounds, shouting, gold and iron shock, the roar and screams made by the soldiers, all all kinds of voices are intertwined together, and they also show that they also show, and also show
The cruelty of fighting.
Soon the bodies of the two sides were left at the stack of the city, under the roots of the city wall, and the gap in the city wall. The blood also began to spread everywhere.
The corpse, stepping on the blood full of blood, continued to create more death, turned more opponents into a member of the lying on the ground, or until it fell down.
The taste of nitrate mixed, the stabbing lung and abdomen, which is made.
From the morning to 4 pm in the morning, the Jun Army has changed the three batches of offensive people. In the merchant army, except for the commander Li Dingguo and the deputy commander Huang Qingwen, not only the other soldiers of the artillery regiment are all soldiers of the artillery regiment.
I participated in the war, and even the members of the regiment departments all invested in the battle.
Or throwing grenades. Fortunately, the difference between the costumes of the merchant's officers and soldiers is not obvious, so it has not been found by the Qing army.
At this point, the main battle between the two sides was covered by the corpse and blood, and some places were piled up with several layers of corpses.
land.
However, after all, the Jun Army is the offensive side. When the weapons and geographical conditions are not dominant, they can only rely on desperately to maintain the fierce offensive. Because of this, the casualties far exceed the merchant army.
However, it is also because the offensive of the Qing army is too fierce, and the casualties of the merchant army are not small. Of course, the Qing Army is dozens of times more than the merchant army in the city.
of.
However, Hong Chengchou saw the fierce battle for a day, and the Qing army was very tired, so he ordered temporary troops. On the fierce battle of this day, the Qing army had killed nearly 4,000 people, and the casualties of the merchant army also exceeded thousands.
The loss is much larger than the previous few days.
At this time, the soldiers of the merchant army were relieved, and many people couldn't care about anything. They sat in the corpse with a buttocks, panting and breathing, and then wiped the sweaty water on their heads. Many people's
Face clothes are dark, and blood and sweat are mixed with blood and sweat, and then wiped by disappointment, it has become a big flower face.
Everyone can rest, but Li Dingguo did not stop, and hurriedly ordered to send people to clean the battlefield and leave guard soldiers. Other soldiers should take a rest, and arrange the gaps in the construction of the project to repair the city wall.
At this moment, someone came to report suddenly. Li Yan, who had retreated to Dabie Mountain, wrote a letter to him. Li Dingguo opened it. It turned out that Li Yan persuaded him to be restless.
To keep a full date in Macheng County, and at the same time, Shang Yi said, do not limit the gains and losses in one city and one place. If not, you will retreat to Dabie Mountain.
Picking up a regiment ambush, you can take over Li Dingguo withdrawal.
This letter also made Li Dingguo feel quite cheerful, because it is only on October 16th, and the guard time for his plan is much worse, and he is indeed limited to the defense plan that he has formulated now. I thought I thought about it.
He stayed in Macheng County and consumed the planned time. However, it ignored that Macheng was just a county seat, and there was not much room for virginity. Although there was a city wall to guard, it must be fighting with the Qing army.
Go to continue to adhere to. Dabie mountains are hundreds of miles, the mountains are high and the mountains are high, and the difficulties of the Qing army in the fortress are much more difficult.
Therefore, Li Dingguo also secretly blamed himself, why suddenly the authorities were fascinated, and they should be withdrawn from Macheng County a few days ago, so that they can retain more troops.
, But still withdrew from Macheng tonight, he immediately recruited members of the regiment of the three regiments and announced their decision to them. And immediately arranged a plan for retreat.
After today's battle, there are only 7,300 people left in the whole division, there are more than 2,200 people in the fourteen regiment, and only 1,900 people in the twentieth regiment.
There are more than 3,000 people in the twelve groups. In addition, there are more than 200 serious wounded members.
Li Dingguo decided to start from now on, while taking a rest, and preparing. In order to ensure the lightning of the troops, all heavy artillery, heavy artillery, and tube piano guns were buried in the county town, only with small and medium artillery.
Think about it, because the heavy artillery is also very inconvenient to fight in the mountains. All stay in Macheng County. After fighting back, dig it again.
The retreat started from the second. First, the 22nd regiment and the small and small artillery evacuated from Macheng, and the 20th regiment paid the responsibility. After the 14th regiment's responsibility was interrupted in the city, the twenty -two regiments were waiting in the city.
After leaving for an hour, start evacuation.
After the order of the retreat was distributed, the heads of the three regiments also returned to each regiment and began to prepare for the evacuation of various tasks. And Li Dingguo ordered someone to send a letter to Li Yan and let him prepare to take over.
