Chapter 89: The glorious Ming Dynasty, fighting against the national calamity together(2/2)

These are antiques dismantled from warships. Although the navy cannot use them, they can still be used to defend the city. It is better than nothing.

Seeing the Ming army approaching, Ild felt a chill on his back. At this time, the Qing army, which was storming the southern slope of the mountain, was in a stalemate with Shao Kang's army.

The prince's army was able to overwhelm the Qing army.

Just because the prince shot the Tatar general to death with one arrow, and fled in panic, the morale of his troops was greatly boosted, and they fought fiercely. Every one of them bravely exchanged their lives with the Tatars, vowing to capture Tu Lai!

Tu Lai was frightened. Seeing the Ming army's fanatical appearance of not fearing death, he hurriedly ordered the retreat to meet at Yilde.

But after walking a few steps, he received a message from Ild, explaining that military reinforcements had arrived and that he could no longer fight. He was told to break through hard, otherwise he would risk being surrounded and annihilated.

Tu Lai was really panicked this time. At a loss, he looked at Malahi for help.

"Ild is right, we have to rush out from this end and meet up with Kong Youde to be safe!" Marashi said through gritted teeth, holding back the pain in his butt.

"Listen to you! Quick, turn around and fight me out!" Tu Lai raised his knife tremblingly and shouted: "Anyone who dares to retreat will have his status cut off and become a slave!"

When the soldiers of the Qing army heard this, they became violent and turned around to confront the pursuing princes.

Both parties fought tooth and nail, not caring about anything else, gouging their eyes and poking their noses, kicking their crotches and throats, and engaging in hand-to-hand combat just to clear a way for Tu Lai.

The prince suffered a slight leg injury and could only stand in the distance and shoot arrows to support him.

Seeing Tu Lai turn around, he was keenly aware that the battle situation had changed. He guessed that Tu Lai wanted to escape, so he shouted loudly: "The captor wants to escape, don't let him get away. Whoever shoots the captor will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver."

!"

In an instant, the Ming army was like a pot exploding, and the mountains roared and the tsunami erupted. At this time, the people were no longer human.

The prince fired a flurry of arrows, but Tu Lai did not dare to show his head. The Baya soldiers guarding him had already lost several of them, and they all fell to the arrows of the prince.

Seeing Tu Lai passing through the battle formation under the elite escort and about to escape, the prince became a little anxious and limped to a wandering war horse and climbed up with difficulty.

Seeing that the prince was chasing after him, Tu Lai ran away.

An elite vest beside him turned his horse's head, preparing to intercept the prince's strategy and cover his master's escape.

But I didn’t expect that at this time, Wang Gonglue only had Tu Lai in his eyes.

As soon as the two of them fought, the vest was knocked off the weapon by Wang Gonglue's sword, and he almost fell off the horse.

There were not many people around Tu Lai. Seeing that he could not stop Ming General, Malaxi had no choice but to raise his sword and stab Tu Lai's horse on the butt. Then he turned the horse's head and faced Wang Gonglue again.<

/p>

"Malahi!"

Tu Lai's horse was stimulated and started running wildly with a neighing sound.

"Capital, I will cut off your heir for you!" Malaxi knew that he might be buried here today, but he had no choice.

If Tulai is good or evil, military law will be ruthless.

When the prince saw that it was the Tatar general again, he couldn't help feeling sorry that the big fish couldn't catch up.

The two met and fought fiercely again.

But Malaxi held the upper hand and had the advantage, and the prince could not do anything to him for a while, so he could only keep pulling.

At the same time, after Xiong Rulin learned about Yan Yingyuan's initial troop deployment, he decisively ordered the entire army to attack and annihilate the enemy as quickly as possible.

Yan Yingyuan personally led the army to attack, and Xiong Rulin took charge of the central army.

When Yild saw Yan Yingyuan coming, he did not dare to fight him. He retreated continuously until he reached the basin. There was a fierce battle behind him and he had no way to retreat.

Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the morale of the prince's generals was revived.

At this time, the Qing army commander who was entangled with Shaokang's army on the mountain of selling was aware that his side was defeated, so he decisively led his troops into the deep forest and fled to the north of the mountain.

Duke Shao Kang was unable to pursue, so he could only gather his troops and horses, gather two thousand soldiers, and go down the mountain to join the army.

At this time, 15,000 men from the Yilde and Geng Zhongming tribes of the Qing army were compressed by the Ming army at the entrance of the basin.

The princes blocked the attack at the back, while Yan Yingyuan attacked in front.

The morale of the Qing army was shaken.

Geng Zhongming's troops were originally under the banner of the Han army. Seeing this situation, the already low morale collapsed. Even though Geng Zhongming repeatedly promised huge sums of money, he still could not save the morale of the army.

The 4,008 banner troops under Yild's army were still willing to fight, but Yild had already lost their position at this time and did not notice the abnormality of Geng Zhongming's army.

Yan Yingyuan was the first to rush into the enemy formation.

Wang Jinzhong and Zhong Muli were guarding the left and right, and the three of them opened a gap for the army like arrows.

Later, when Xiong Rulin saw how brave these three people were, they were inspired by their courage and followed up with all their strength.

The Eight Banners soldiers struggled to stop them, but at this time Geng Zhongming's troops had begun to collapse. Some people threw away their weapons and squatted on the ground with numb and slumped faces.

Geng Zhongming ordered his own soldiers to kill a few, but the situation worsened and spread rapidly in the formation.

These soldiers threw away their weapons and surrendered on the spot.

The soldiers killed several of them, but they had no deterrent effect. Geng Zhongming was dejected. Knowing that the situation was over, he gathered his soldiers and prepared to break through the prince's headquarters and escape.

When Ild saw Geng Zhongming running away, he couldn't help but cursed: "You dog slave!"

But Geng Zhongming had already killed him and disappeared from sight.

Ild was alone and unable to support himself. When he was scolding Geng Zhongming, Yan Yingyuan had already come straight to him.

"Master, leave quickly!" A guard beside him exclaimed.

When Ild saw Yan Yingyuan dragging his sword backwards and heading towards him, he was so frightened that he quickly shouted: "Retreat!" surrounded by his guards.

This panic move caused the Eight Banners Army to be in chaos.

The Ming army took the opportunity to attack and defeated it in one fell swoop.

At Youshi, the battle raged for almost a day, and the Qing army was finally defeated.

Yild, the deputy commander of the Qing army, fled with only a dozen of his cavalry, and Ma Laxi, the Qing army's military commander, was beheaded by the Ming army's prince Gonglue.

In this battle, the Ming army captured more than 10,000 people, killed more than 10,000 people, and even killed a Qing army leader.

On our side, Chengjiang and Tianqing's two battalions of 10,000 men remained with less than 3,000. Among them, the Tianqing battalion of Wang Gonglue was almost completely wiped out.

It’s for a tragic victory.

Wang Gonglue did not hesitate to sacrifice his life in order to kill Malaxi. He was stabbed in the abdomen by Malaxi. He was seriously injured and fell into a coma. He was rushed to Jiangyin for treatment.

Shao Kanggong was hit by two arrows, but his injuries were minor.

Wang Jinzhong and Zhong Muli were both stabbed four or five times, but fortunately their vital organs were not injured.

Yan Yingyuan collapsed from exhaustion and was rescued by soldiers and sent to a safe place to rest.

Xiong Rulin directs the follow-up matters.

"Sir, the general thinks that the terrain here is very good and it is a barrier to Jiangyin. It is better to deploy the army here and rely on the geographical advantage to form an angle with Jiangyin." A general under Xiong Rulin said.

"Yes, I also think this place is very good. Wait until Yan Dianshi wakes up and listen to his opinion." Xiong Rulin nodded in agreement.

Yan Yingyuan was able to hold off 30,000 Qing troops here with 10,000 troops for nearly a day, which shows the importance of geographical location.

"This Yan Dianshi is really both wise and brave. I will be ashamed of myself." The general was completely impressed by Yan Yingyuan today and couldn't help admiring him.

"With the talent of a general like this, Dian Shi is really an underachiever!"

"How about letting him lead the army under Futai's tent?"

The general suggested it without hesitation.

Xiong Rulin couldn't help but feel happy. He looked at the general and said, "You are so generous!"

"Hey! We still know what Futai is talking about and how much we weigh. Besides, following a hero like Yan Dianshi, we are convinced." The general said with a smile.
