Chapter 87 The Battle of Daankou (2)
Dear sages, please give me more support, thank you!
…
"Your Majesty, please take a rest."
Wang Chengen looked worried, raised his head slightly, looked at Emperor Chongzhen who was standing with his arms akimbo, staring at the map, and said: "You haven't slept a wink all night, and..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"
Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice: "My son of the Ming Dynasty, regardless of his own safety, rushed to Da'ankou to fight with the invading Jianlu, what does this mean to me!?
If Lu Qing and the others can win this battle, let alone stay up all night, I will be willing to stay up for three days and three nights!!"
Wang Chengen lowered his head and did not dare to say anything else. Ever since the emperor issued the decree and ordered Lu Xiangsheng's troops stationed in Shimen Town to rush to the direction of Da'ankou, his temper has obviously become much more violent.
In fact, Wang Chengen can also understand that his emperor has such emotions because the current situation is too critical. The main force of Jianlu is heading straight towards Qian'an City. If he cannot capture Da'ankou before Jianlu, the situation will only be detrimental to the situation.
Ming Dynasty became increasingly unfavorable.
"Chen Qing, tell me, do Lu Qing and the others have a good chance of winning this battle?" Looking at the values marked on the map, Emperor Chongzhen turned around and looked at Chen Yansheng and said.
Although we are aware of Jianlu's military trends and the strength of Jianlu in Zunhua, Santun Camp and other places, it is just nonsense to say that we are not nervous about the current situation.
After all, compared with the Jianlu Eight Banners, the Ming army's baseline combat capability was too poor, especially in field battles, which was far worse than the Jianlu Eight Banners.
The only ones who dared to start a field battle with Jianlu and caused heavy casualties to Jianlu were the white-pole soldiers!
In the bloody battle of Hunhe River, the white-armed soldiers who fought to aid Liao used their hot blood and their precious lives to show that Jianlu was not invincible!
"Your Majesty, I believe that General Lu and the others will definitely win this battle!"
Chen Yansheng, who was named, hurriedly stepped forward, cupped his hands and said: "I went to Shimen Town. What I saw, heard, and felt is that the Tianxiong and Zhongyong armies led by General Lu, plus the Yongwei camp, are really our Ming Dynasty's great army.
also!
They used practical actions to interpret what His Majesty has always said before, that they must dare to show their swords to Jianlu and dare to face Jianlu!!"
yes.
With Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Zushou, Zhou Yuji and others here, what am I worried about at this time?
Even though the Jianlu troops entrenched on the front line of Da'ankou had an absolute geographical advantage, the Ming Dynasty army that went out to fight also had weapons on the battlefield, which was enough to even out the gap between the two sides.
Moreover, the army commanded by Lu Xiangsheng had the advantage in strength. There was absolutely no problem in suppressing the Jianlu and taking advantage of the situation to seize Da'ankou.
must!!
Emperor Chongzhen said secretly in his heart, turned around and looked at the map in front of him, as if the scene of a bloody battle on the front line appeared before his eyes.
The rain of arrows that covered the sky blocked the cavalry team dispatched by Jianlu. The front line deployed with chariots and large shields was firmly nailed to the battlefield guarded everywhere. The trebuchets in the rear army were
Under the control of the soldiers of the Tianxiong Army, bundles of clustered thunderbolts were thrown...
Without the support of artillery, Jianlu lost the advantage of coordinated infantry and artillery operations, and had no choice but to endure the rounds of offensives launched by the Ming Dynasty Jianer.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
"Boom boom boom..."
"Kill!!!"
At this moment, Emperor Chongzhen felt as if he was on the frontline battlefield, with various sounds echoing in his ears, and he saw the angry Jianlu senior officials...
"Damn it, when did this dog have such courage!"
Jirharang looked angrily, looking at the battlefield in front of him with artillery fire and arrows flying, and said angrily: "They obviously didn't carry artillery, how could they have such a powerful artillery attack?"
Yue Tuo frowned, with an ugly expression on his face, and his clenched fists showed his inner feelings at the moment. Since the battle between the two sides, the invading Ming army's performance on the battlefield far exceeded their expectations.
"We can't keep fighting like this!"
Yue Tuo smashed his clenched fist against the wall of the village and said in a deep voice: "The Ming army's artillery must be destroyed. Send the order and order the cavalry on the left and right wings to take a roundabout way and go straight to the Ming army's rear formation to kill!!"
Standing behind him was Ya Le, and he immediately separated into several people and ran quickly towards the wall of the village, preparing to pass on the military orders issued by his master to the Mongolian soldiers on the left and right wings as quickly as possible.
At that time, on the front-line battlefield of Da'ankou, the various divisions of the Tianxiong Army, under the command of their generals, were advancing steadily, constantly approaching the camp built by Jianlu.
Lu Xiangsheng was riding on his horse, looking around at the fighting troops in front, with a serious expression, but his eyes were shining brightly, and he issued military orders from time to time to adjust the Tianxiong army under his command to fight against the invading Jianlu.
"Brother, the cavalry on the left and right flanks of Jianlu seem to be moving!" Lu Xiangjin opened his eyes wide and shouted immediately when he saw bursts of flying dust rising in the formation of Jianlu.
Um?
Following the direction pointed by Lu Xiangjin, Lu Xiangsheng saw two torrents of cavalry appearing not far from both sides of Tianxiong's military formation, charging toward his rear formation in a mighty manner.
"They want to destroy the trebuchets carried by our army!"
Seeing this, Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly shouted in a deep voice: "Immediately pass on the order and order all the troops on the left and right wings to stop advancing immediately and stand firm in place to prevent the Jianlu cavalry from charging into the formation.
At the same time, he sent an order to the rear formation, ordering the shield bearers to set up three lines of defense, the crossbowmen to get close to block the attack, the grenadiers to throw thunderbolts, and the fire gunmen to hold down the formation, quick!!!"
"Here!"
The situation on the battlefield is fleeting, and any negligence may lead to a total loss. Although the Tianxiong army that went out to fight was far larger than the Jianlu army, Lu Xiangsheng did not relax at all.
After the actual battle, Lu Xiangsheng realized that the strength of Jianlu's troops was far superior to Tianxiong's army in terms of individual soldier quality and coordinated battlefield operations!
If you were prepared before the war and had an absolute advantage in strength, if you wanted to block the Jianlu offensive in the field, you would have to pay a greater price.
From the battle to the present, the various units under the jurisdiction of the Tianxiong Army have blocked rounds of Jianlu attacks, but the number of casualties among their subordinates exceeds at least 3,000.
The real battlefield and non-wartime training are two completely different concepts.
"Da da da……"
The thunderous sound of horse hooves resounded throughout the world, and hundreds of Jianlu cavalry and Mongolian soldiers, under the command of their generals, charged towards the rear of the heroic army at extremely fast speeds.
At this time, the Jianlu cavalry and Mongolian soldiers who went out to fight could see clearly how the Ming army maintained such an artillery offensive. It was actually a trebuchet!!
