There is a price to pay for accepting the gift from General Zhenguo of the Ming Dynasty. Luo Jacob's reputation as chief scientist is not in vain. With the joint efforts of these two bastards, Mang Gurtai's bombardment did not last long.
The artillery transferred to the Western Front by the Qing Dynasty had already lost more than 80% before Mao Wenlong counterattacked. Welcome to reading... However, just when Zhu Youcong was full of confidence and prepared to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, something happened that surprised everyone
As expected, Mang Gurtai began to counterattack!
After learning that Zhu Youcong sent two partial armies to try to block the Qing Dynasty's 500,000-strong army at the Liao River, Mang Gurtai immediately responded and asked Geng Zhongming to take his 50,000 horses northward, making sure to keep Liaoyang
The road to Shengjing was clear. Then Li Yongfang led more than 40,000 remnants south to intercept the attack. The task given to them was to eat a bite of the enemy's flesh even if they could not successfully defend Liaoyang. They could not let them complete the encirclement so easily! Manggul
Tai himself took the most elite 350,000 Qing warriors and decided to launch a desperate attack on the main force of the Ming army. Chapter of the novel
Now the bloody ten-kill order issued by Shanhaiguan has spread in Liaodong, and the experiences of the Gaizhou defenders have also confirmed this rumor. Therefore, both the Tatars and the Han soldiers know that there is no way out for surrender. One does not know where to start.
The generals who emerge from the partial army will resolutely carry out the order, but the fat man who personally issued this order will only be more ruthless. Anyway, if you withdraw to Shengjing, you will still have to face a larger number of enemies with equally well-equipped equipment, and you will be forced into a corner.
In order to survive and not be driven away from the land where they had lived and multiplied for dozens of generations, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty mustered up the last courage in their hearts. Since the artillery was unreliable, they simply threw the muskets aside and started again.
They raised their sabers, took off their dusty bows, and mounted their horses, preparing to fight to the death with the powerful Ming army. Chapter of the novel
"Yaxi Zen!" Although Mr. Fan brought the magic weapon capitulationism from later generations, after all, the implementation time was short and had little impact on Mang Gurtai. Moreover, the Tatars of this era are not the Eight Banners after entering the customs.
Officers and soldiers, when they decide to fight desperately, their courage and combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
"The slave is here!" Yaxichan, who had followed his brother and led more than 50 families of his clan to seek refuge since the time when Ye Boar Skin promulgated the so-called Seven Hatreds, was not completely frightened by the Ming army's artillery fire, even though he knew that he would be the first to be called.
There was no way out for him, but he still stood up.
"I will give you 20,000 warriors with blue flags. Are you sure you can advance to a place five miles away from the enemy?" Mang Gurtai wanted to cry when he said his request. When will the Qing Dynasty fall?
At this point? What you can get with 20,000 elite cavalry is no longer victory, but just getting closer to the enemy when the entire army is destroyed.
"I am not sure, but I can promise not to retreat!" Judging from the Ming army's powerful offensive, it is indeed difficult to complete this task. Yaxichan has no confidence but does not lose courage.
"Hey..." Mang Gurtai, who knew that he was trying to force someone to do something difficult, sighed, and said in a tone that he was not sure about: "If we can successfully resist the Ming army in this battle, I will personally tell the emperor to treat you kindly.
Descendants of the Ma Jia family!"
"I thank Lord Beile!" Yaxichan kowtowed three times before standing up and saying to Mang Gurtai: "But my Ma Jia family has no descendants, and all the children in the family who can fight are in the army. We will
Use our blood to exchange for the blessings of gods from all over the world for Lord Beile, and win the dawn of victory for the Qing Dynasty!"
"Go! I, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty, the ancestral gods will bless you!" At this point, Mang Gurtai could only place all his hopes on the gods. The only thing he wished for was that the troops who were dying would be killed at the end of the battle.
There are still a few gasping ones left.
"Nemesis Ge, Chuo Huer, Kultan!" Like most generals of the Qing Dynasty, Mang Gurtai had never read the Thirty-Six Strategies and Sun Tzu's Art of War could not talk about it on paper. All his tactical arrangements had been tested in actual combat.
He would never think of taking the initiative to change anything before paying the price with blood.
The three people whose names were called did not hesitate, and immediately led the crowd and responded at the same time: "Your Majesty, Lord Baylor's orders!"
"With the warriors of the Zhengbai Banner as your backbone, each of you will lead 20,000 elite troops. When Yaxichan fails, you will immediately send troops to reinforce. You must attack the enemy's defense line at all costs, but remember not to invest too much at once! My command is yours.
We must attack and attack again within ten hours. We must not let the Ming army rest!" According to past combat experience, the forwards of the Ming army are often the most terrifying. Although the monster troops coming now are well-equipped and have high morale,
But they are also human beings. As long as they can continue to attack, they are likely to rush into the enemy camp and create panic, thereby finding opportunities to defeat the enemy.
"As you command!"
Watching the second batch of cannon fodder set off, Mang Gurtai continued to shout: "Borjin, Xifu! You two led an attack from the left with a red flag, attracting the remaining troops of the Ming army! Use wheel warfare even if you still have
Even if the last person is left, we cannot give them a chance to turn around!"
"Brother, what about us? Are we just here to watch the warriors die?" Although the brave and skilled Abatai has no confidence in defeating the enemy, he is not willing to accept it now that it has reached a critical moment that determines the life and death of the Qing Dynasty.
Just stay in the seemingly safe rear.
"Seventh brother, my brother has never given you a good look in all these years. You won't blame me?" Because they don't have the same mother, the relationship between Mang Gurtai and Abate is not very good. He has never been like this.
Called each other affectionately.
Because Abatai was the son of a concubine, although he had outstanding military exploits, he had a humble status among his brothers. He was often grieved because of the unfair treatment he received. Suddenly, it was a bit embarrassing to hear Mang Gurtai call himself that.
Adapted. He said blankly: "Brother Five, what does this mean?"
Mang Gurtai did not answer, but asked: "In the past three years since Amma passed away and the new emperor came to the throne, you have been highly regarded for your ability to control the military despite being often humiliated and punished. This time, the Ming army was allowed to invade in large numbers.
I jointly guard the Western Front, do you know why?"
"Why?" Abatai knew the reason no matter how stupid he was, but he didn't dare to say that if you didn't deal with me, wouldn't it be because I was from a side clan and would not pose a threat to the emperor's position?
"Because you are brave and foolish!" Mang Gurtai explained with a wry smile: "You are not the most outstanding among our brothers in terms of military exploits, and you can't even compare to Dorgon's 10% in terms of strategy! But you dare to fight and fight hard.
As long as you go to the battlefield, you will do whatever it takes. In the eighth year of your destiny, you sent troops to attack the Lute tribe. After Ang Bangzhang Jingdayinbu died in the battle, you continued to advance and killed Ang An and his son... It is precisely because of this that the emperor can rest assured to let him go.
Only if you lead the troops will I dare to entrust you with the important task of determining the victory of this battle!"
"Brother means..." Having been stupid for a long time has become an advantage, and blindly acting recklessly can actually take on important tasks? Abatai does not believe that his own courage alone can change the situation of the war and win victory for the Qing Dynasty.
"The key to this battle is not the three armies that just set off. To be honest, they all went to die! However, in order to win, our army needs a more powerful force to serve as bait and stuff it into the mouths of the Ming army...
…”
Abatai interrupted Mang Gurtai and made a promise: "Fifth Brother, please give the order! Even if I risk my life for our Qing Dynasty and for our descendants, I will complete the task you assigned me!"
Mang Gurtai shook his head and said: "Your strategy is definitely not suitable for serving as a bait. I have already made arrangements for this! Your mission is to resolutely penetrate the enemy from the right wing regardless of what happens on other fronts.
Behind us, completely destroy their artillery positions!"
"Fifth Brother..." At this point Abatai has completely understood Mang Gurtai's response strategy. He is going to personally lead an army to cover for me and wipe out the Qing Dynasty at the cost of more than 300,000 people.
The biggest threat is that only by depriving the enemy of that evil artillery can we gain the final hope of victory.
"Don't act like this to make me look down on you!" Mang Gurtai suddenly regained his previous heroic spirit and said with a smile: "The reason why I let Geng Zhongming and Li Yongfang lead the Han army flag to fight against the enemy's partial divisions was because they had no hope.
What role can they play? I just don’t want to interfere with the actions of our Qing warriors because of their cowardice! Now only the most heroic you can withstand the huge pressure caused by our death and carry out that mission!"
"Bang!" Anyway, no matter whether he wins or loses in this battle, his chance of survival is very slim. Abatai punched the soil next to him and said angrily: "This is all caused by our reckless eighth brother! If
He was able to reuse those Western barbarians according to Lord Fan's advice early on, so why did the Qing Dynasty's national power fall to the point where it is now at the mercy of others..."
"There is no point in complaining now! If I had known today, Emperor Ama should not have promulgated the Seven Hatreds to cause disputes while he was still alive, and we should not support the eighth brother's hasty decision to send troops to seek clarification..." and Aba
Just like Tai, until now, Mang Gur Taiyi had high hopes in Sui Meng's novel, but he didn't realize that it was this wise military advisor who was helping the shameless fat man of the Ming Dynasty to push them step by step on this road of no return. "Otherwise, with Fan
With your wisdom, if you can start this war two years later, we will definitely win!"
"Hey..." Mang Gurtai sighed and continued: "The result of this battle is likely to be the destruction of my entire army, but if we win, even if the Qing Dynasty exhausts its efforts and never makes a comeback, at least it can still get a breather.
With the opportunity, with the help of Master Fan, the tribe may be able to find another place to live. Failure is even more unimaginable. The ten-kill order issued by the Ming army alone was enough to wipe out the Qing Dynasty! We are also here
It’s just a mantis acting like a chariot, doing his best and obeying fate!”
"Fifth Brother, please don't say any more. As long as I, Abatai, am still breathing, I will definitely not make things easier for the Ming army! I will gather the children right now and let the arrogant Ming army see that I, the warrior of the Qing Dynasty, also have
My own dignity!" When he said this, Abatai had already made up his mind. Even if he couldn't stop the Ming army, he would still fall on their offensive line.
"Good brother, go! I will personally open the way for you!" Mang Gurtai put on his military uniform, mounted his horse and nodded fiercely: "Remember, you are the last hope of the Qing Dynasty, no matter where we are.
No matter how tragic the battle is, you will not be allowed to look back!"
"Fifth brother, don't worry. There are only Qing Baylor who died in battle in this world, and there is no Abatai who retreated!"
