The 403rd chapter needle tip to the wheat awn (2)

When the deafening drum beat sounded, the earth began to tremble.

All the cavalry of Denglai's new army were dispatched, rushing towards Houjin Tatar from the left and right wings and from the direction of the city gate.

The rumbling drums made the Han army, who was already in despair, rush towards the Houjin Tatars as if they had been given blood. They rushed forward one after another, and some people kept falling in the rain of arrows, but no one was afraid anymore and continued to move towards them.

Charge forward.

The sword in Azig's hand was finally raised high.

The cavalry of the Ming Army was dispatched, and the moment for the decisive battle between the Eight Banners Army and the Ming Army had arrived.

Azig and Abatai, who had made comprehensive plans to prepare for a decisive battle with the Ming army, had no time to regret. They did not expect that the Han army would rebel and disrupt all arrangements. They did not expect that the advantage they originally thought existed would now be

There was nothing left. On the other hand, the Ming army, with its sharp charge and momentum, made people unconsciously scared.

The weak Han army was no better than a pig or a dog in the eyes of Azig and Abatai. However, the Han army sergeants at this moment were not afraid of death. Even if they knew that charging forward would lead to death, no one would retreat.

What happened in today's battle?

A black rain of arrows appeared, which were the bows and arrows fired by the cavalry from both sides.

In terms of momentum, the soldiers of Denglai's New Army were even better. They slightly suppressed the Eight Banners Army.

"boom..."

A huge crash finally appeared on the left and right wings.

Denglai's new army, wearing red shirts, instantly tore open the Eight Banners Army's defense line. Two red torrents penetrated deep into the battle group and continued to extend in depth.

The brutal fighting finally began. The Eight Banners Army sergeants who were focused on dealing with the Han army were forced to turn around and face the attack of Denglai's new army. The Han Army sergeants who had been suppressed and beaten began to shout loudly again and headed towards them desperately.

The Eight Banners Army sergeant rushed over...

Lu Xiangsheng followed Liu Ning, holding a spear and rushing towards Houjin Tatar.

Liu Ning is the commander-in-chief of Laizhou, and he never expected to charge at the front. Officers at all levels of the Denglai New Army were all charged at the front. With their leadership, all the soldiers in the cavalry battalion of the Denglai New Army were at the forefront.

Even if you retreat, you will always charge forward without hesitation.

Lu Xiangsheng felt this kind of momentum for the first time, knowing that the opponents of the Denglai New Army were the elites of the Eight Banners Army.

"Ah ha..."

Lu Xiangsheng roared angrily, knocking down the Houjin Tartar in front of him, and a wisp of blood spattered on his face and body.

There was no time to wipe away the blood stains. The spear in Lu Xiangsheng's hand was like a white dragon, shuttling through the battle group.

...

The Royal Forest Saber in Liu Ning's hand was already being swung so tightly that there were nearly ten Houjin Tatars who fell under the Royal Forest Saber. As a bodyguard, they were trying their best to kill the enemy.

Liu Ning will never slack off. He knows very well what this fight means. All the main forces of the Houjin Tatars have participated in the battle, and all the troops of Denglai's new army have also pressed forward. There is no time for hesitation and no chance to slack off.

, the Denglai New Army and the Houjin Tatars had no choice but to fight to the death to see who could persist to the end.

Thanks to Wu Zongrui's planning, Denglai's new army had a slight advantage before the attack began. This advantage gradually began to expand when the cavalry charged in an all-out manner. The sudden burst of combat effectiveness of the rebellious Han army made

The Houjin Tatars were caught off guard and were forced to fight on two fronts.

The overall combat effectiveness of Denglai's new army will not be weaker than that of Houjin's Tatars. In an evenly matched battle between the two sides, the losses may be heavy, but no one should think about completely annihilating their opponent.

The cavalry attack focuses on momentum. The cavalry of the Denglai New Army has already taken advantage of the momentum. Now it is necessary for Liu Ning and other officers of the Denglai New Army to extend the advantage as much as possible and kill as many Houjin as possible.

Tatars.

...

Neither Azig nor Abatai joined the fighting group.

All 50,000 Eighth Banner Army officers and soldiers rushed forward, and the front of Miyun County has become a bloody place.

Azig's face turned pale and he clenched his teeth. The fight had entered a critical moment and he had to persevere no matter what.

"Report, we found traces of a large number of military activities about 20 miles south of Miyun County. Judging from the scale of the march, it is estimated that the number of troops will be no less than 50,000..."

The scout's sudden report made Azig's body tremble slightly, and Abate's face instantly turned pale.

Both of them thought of the 100,000 Ming troops stationed in the capital of Ming Dynasty at the same time.

Could it be that the Ming court planned a huge chess game and wanted to completely swallow up the 100,000 Eight Banner Army officers and soldiers?

After being stunned for less than five seconds, Azig looked at Abate beside him.

"Seventh brother, are the Ming army's reinforcements always lurking nearby..."

Azig's words were somewhat confusing, but his meaning was clear.

Abate shook his head vigorously.

"Commander, the Ming army has always had a hundred thousand troops hidden in the capital. It has not launched an attack before and allowed us to attack in the capital. Is it because Denglai's new army has not yet arrived in Gyeonggi? Now Denglai's new army has arrived.

, the Ming army stationed in the Ming capital will launch a general attack on us..."

Before Abate could finish speaking, Azig spoke in a hurried tone.

"The Ming Dynasty used the Denglai New Army to hold us back. When a hundred thousand troops arrive in Miyun County, they will completely surround us. By that time, our food and grass supply will be low and we will not be able to last long. Once our food and grass supply is no longer available,

, the Ming army will surround us and wait for us to collapse without a fight..."

Before Azig finished speaking, Abatai's body began to tremble.

"Commander, withdraw your troops quickly and evacuate in the direction of Gubeikou. If the Ming troops rushing to rescue arrive, we may not be able to withdraw..."

Azig turned over and dismounted and walked back and forth quickly. At this time, he was really unwilling to withdraw his troops across the board. Moreover, withdrawing troops meant another loss of troops. This was inevitable. But if he did not withdraw his troops, he would really wait until the Ming Dynasty's 100,000

When the reinforcements arrive, we will really face great danger at that time.

Although he was the king of Wuying County in the Qing Dynasty, Azige did not dare to joke with the lives of one hundred thousand soldiers.

"Order the entire army to evacuate in the direction of Gubeikou, and order the soldiers stationed in Bulaotun Town to respond and defend against the Ming army's surprise attack..."

...

"Haha, the Houjin Tatars were beaten away..."

On the city wall, Zhang Fengyi danced happily. This was the first time he saw Houjin Tatar take the initiative to evacuate the whole line.

"Order Liao Wenru and Liu Ning to attack on all fronts to pursue the Hou Jin Tatars, but the pursuit distance should not exceed ten miles..."

Wu Zongrui's order was issued quickly.

The order this time was different from the last time. Wu Zongrui issued an order to pursue across the board.

The task of pursuing the Hou Jin Tatars was of course undertaken by the soldiers of the cavalry battalion of the Denglai New Army. It was impossible for the soldiers of the infantry battalion to pursue them. In fact, the soldiers of the infantry battalion had no chance to participate in this battle.

...

Outside Miyun County, people were already immersed in jubilation.

Although not many Houjin Tatars were killed in this battle, and the Denglai New Army Cavalry Battalion also suffered certain losses, Liao Wenru, Liu Ning and others were sincerely happy because this was the time when they led a large army to face Houjin. This was the first head-on collision between the Jin Tatars. Judging from the fighting situation, the Later Jin Tatars were not as scary as they imagined.

Zhang Fengyi and others had already gone to the side room of the county government office, but Wu Zongrui still stayed on the city wall.

Luo Dianyong came to the city wall, clasped his fists at Wu Zongrui and spoke.

"Sir, my subordinates have completed their mission according to your instructions..."

Liao Wenru and Liu Ning also came to the city wall.

The personal guards were on tight guard, and no other unrelated persons were allowed to walk onto the city wall.

"Luo Dianyong, you did a good job, forcing the Houjin Tatars to evacuate across the board. It seems that our combat mission has been completed. Tomorrow at most, Azig and Abatai will lead all the Houjin Tatars to fully evacuate the pass and return to the pass. Go to Shenyang."

Not even Liao Wenru and Liu Ning knew that Wu Zongrui had made such an arrangement.

Still Liu Ning couldn't hold it in anymore and looked at Wu Zongrui and spoke.

"Sir, didn't you decide to have a decisive battle with the Houjin Tatars in Gyeonggi? As long as our Denglai New Army holds back the Houjin Tatars until they run out of food and grass, we can annihilate them all. At least we will be able to annihilate them all. Let them leave behind partial corpses and war horses..."

Although Liao Wenru didn't speak, he had similar thoughts to Liu Ning.

Wu Zongrui looked at everyone and sighed slightly.

He arranged for Luo Dianyong to lead the soldiers of the infantry battalion to the south of Miyun County, using tree branches and other objects to create a large army marching formation, with the purpose of confusing Azig and Abatai and allowing them to evacuate quickly.

After all, both Azig and Abatai knew that there were nearly 100,000 imperial troops in the capital.

"You must all feel confused. We have clearly set up a decisive battle with the Houjin Tatars. Why do we still have to create doubts and let the Houjin Tatars evacuate quickly? And when the Houjin Tatars evacuate across the board, I don't want to You are allowed to travel long distances to pursue the Houjin Tatars."

Having said this, Wu Zongrui's eyes looked in the direction of the capital, and his expression became solemn.

"In this battle, our goal has been achieved. We have severely defeated the Houjin Tatars and the soldiers of Denglai's new army. No one is afraid of the Houjin Tatars. But you remember, the moment of our decisive battle with the Houjin Tatars is far away. Far from coming.”

"Ajige and Abatai still have nearly 90,000 people under their command. We simply don't have the ability to swallow them all in one go. This place is very close to Gubeikou. Azig and Abatai sensed the danger and were able to lead Houjin. The Tatars quickly retreated outside the pass."

"If our Denglai New Army really gets into a life-and-death fight with the Houjin Tatars, we may not be able to gain much advantage, and the reinforcements entrenched in various towns in the capital may not support us."

"In a word, the time is not yet ripe, and it has not yet arrived for us to have a decisive battle with the post-Jin Tatars."

...

Wu Zongrui's explanation was a bit vague, and there must be other ideas in it that were not stated.

Liao Wenru, Liu Ning and others would never ask. For them, it was a good thing that the battle was over. The captured Houjin Tatars, the seized war horses, food, grass and money, as well as the surrendered Han army sergeants all needed to be dealt with and dealt with.
