: It’s hard to get rid of a tiger

The night flows slowly.

After countless sleepless nights, the dawn gradually opened the darkness of the earth. A new day has arrived. Dongjiabao reappeared in the sight of the Jin army. Looking from a distance, it was still so insignificant and inconspicuous, as if it could easily take it down with just a rush and a fierce attack.

However, today's Dongjiabao has become like a monster in the eyes of many Tartars and dare not approach it easily. Yesterday, it was this inconspicuous Dongjiabao that taught the invincible Jin army a painful lesson. Until now, many Jin army still have lingering fears. Who would have thought that the counterattack of the Hu Ben army was so cruel?

“It’s snowing again.”

Zhang Zhun said softly.

After dawn, Zhang Zhun, who had not closed his eyes all night, stood on the head of Dongjiabao, holding a thousand-mile mirror, carefully observing the movements of the Tatar camp. He was really worried about whether he would beat the Tatars too hard yesterday, but the Tatars were afraid of being beaten and retreated. He would never dare to launch an attack again today.

If that was true, his deployment in Northern Zhili would feel a little unsatisfied. After two months of deployment, he only cleaned up the two thousand Tartars, which was unreasonable. He really hoped that Huang Taiji would continue to attack, even if he launched an attack of ten thousand people. As long as he could kill another five thousand Tartars, his arrangement in Hejian Mansion would not be in vain.

The dark clouds seemed to be pressing on his head, as if they could touch it with your hand. Scattered snowflakes fell down in a mess from the clouds. After two days of brewing, it finally started to fall. The fields outside Dongjiabao were slowly covered with snow. The bodies and bloodstains left by the battle yesterday were gradually covered by snow. Looking around, there was a vast white area. Snow white and blood red. It seemed that today was another fierce battle!

"Sir, do you think the Tartars will come again?"

Yang Zixuan came to Zhang Zhun and asked in a low voice a little worriedly.

Like Zhang Zhun, the senior officers of the Hu Ben Army were most worried about not attacking the Tartars without fear of death, but about not coming. If the Tartars did not attack, with the current strength of the Tiger Army, they would definitely not be able to chase them out and fight against the Tartars. In other words, they could only be anxious here, but they could not do anything to the Tartars.

"have no idea."

Zhang Zhun said slowly.

"I hope they come again."

Yang Zixuan said expectantly.

"Hope so."

Zhang Zhun nodded and put down the Qianli Mile Mile.

At this moment, the Tartars' military camp began to move.

"Dududu!"

The exciting horn sounded.

"The Tartars are here!"

Yang Zixuan shouted excitedly.

Such an exciting horn is of course a signal of attack.

Sure enough, after the Niuke sounded, a large number of Tartar cavalry lined up from the fence gates on both sides of the Tartar camp and headed towards both sides of Dongjiabao. Well, to be precise, a large number of Mongolian cavalrymen rushed past both sides of Dongjiabao and advanced towards the field behind the Dongjiabao. Needless to ask, you know that the Mongolian cavalry must have cut off the connection between Dongjiabao and the Central Military Camp. In other words, a new round of attack by the Tartars is about to begin again.

The sound of horse hooves was like thunder, as if they were going to demonstrate to Dongjiabao. Teams of Mongolian cavalry were less than 200 feet closest to Dongjiabao, and they could be hit by fire with just a cannon. Zhang Zhun randomly estimated and found that the number of these Mongolian cavalry was at least more than 10,000. In terms of the number of people, there were indeed many Mongolian cavalry, and tens of thousands were deployed.

The power of the tiger still exists. The Mongolian grassland is indeed a paradise for cavalry. The Mongols did not have the glory of the past and were not as genius as Genghis Khan. However, the fallen Mongols still had a large number of war horses and a large number of cavalry. This is incomparable to others. Without the help of the Mongols, Jianlu would not have had so many cavalry. In other words, if someone could fight for the Mongols, then the power of Jianlu cavalry would be gone.

Since the Mongolians can be a sword of Jianlu, does that mean that they are also a sword of the Hu Ben Army? In the future, if the Hu Ben Army wants to expand westward, large-scale cavalry will be indispensable as pioneers. The war horses on the Mongolian grassland and the pastures on the Mongolian grassland are all very needed by the Hu Ben Army! In the past, Genghis Khan was able to rely on the advantages of the cavalry to attack the Danube, so can the Hu Ben Army also attack the Danube?

Behind the Mongolian cavalry are Jianlu's cavalry. Relatively speaking, the number of Jianlu cavalry is smaller. Zhang Zhun carefully counted and found that the Jianlu cavalry appeared in his sight was less than 3,000. It seems that most of the Jianlu cavalry are used as infantry today!

"Good guy! He's all out!"

"Sir, it seems that they are not just attacking Dongjiabao."

Yang Zixuan observed carefully and said cautiously.

"Huang Taiji should take multiple measures and bloom from all sides."

Zhang Zhun nodded and said calmly.

He naturally saw that Huang Taiji was going to launch a full-scale attack. Today, Jianlu not only wanted to attack Dongjiabao, but also launched an attack on Caojiabao, Liujiabao, and the central camp of the Hu Ben Army. This is the so-called multi-pronged approach, which immediately suppressed all the forces of the Hu Ben Army and then rushed forward. With Huang Taiji's current military strength, he could indeed do this.

The comprehensive attack is good! The more violent the Jianlu's attack is, the greater the losses they suffer. If they are not mistaken, today's attack will be the last attack of Jianlu. In other words, the Hu Ben Army must have hurt Huang Taiji today and broken the spine, and the Tatars will never dare to enter the pass again.

"Tele to all castles! Defend tightly and do not attack easily!"

"Try every means to cause losses to the Tartars!"

"The guys at the bottom of the box have used it!

Zhang Zhun said coldly.

Since Huang Taiji has made such a big deal, of course he can't be stingy. The Hu Ben Army has carefully prepared for two months here, just for today? If you have any killer moves, use them all! This is a one-time transaction, and there will be no store after passing this village.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Early in the morning, Huang Taiji finally made up his mind to launch a fierce attack on Zhang Zhun. He believed that even if he paid the price of 20,000 or 30,000 people, it would be worth it as long as he could kill Zhang Zhun. Zhang Zhun poses too great a threat to the Great Jin Kingdom. If he does not eradicate this person as soon as possible, the Great Jin Kingdom will not be at peace in the future. Competing with the Hu Ben Army and competing with time, Huang Taiji does not have that confidence. The Hu Ben Army only took two years to become so powerful. Who can compete with them for development?

Under his order, a large number of cavalry of the Eight Banners of the Manchurian Manchuria turned into infantry sieges and prepared to launch a tough battle. Huang Taiji divided the attack into four points, Dongjiabao, Caojiabao, Liujiabao, and the Central Military Barracks. All the infantrymen of Jianlu attacked Dongjiabao. The infantry and cavalry of the three Mongolian tribes were responsible for attacking the other three places respectively.

Huang Taiji reiterated that no matter which point you are the first to break through, you can get the territory of Fuyuwei as a reward. Each of the 300 people who entered the city first can receive a reward of 1,000 taels of silver. Other pigs, horses, cattle, sheep, slaves, and beauties are even more stingy. Huang Taiji also took out ten golden scimitars and wanted to personally reward the ten warriors who entered the city first.

Huang Taiji also took the initiative in this attack. It was not enough to have rich rewards. He also sent his personal soldiers, Gebush Xianchaoha Camp (later the Forward Battalion), to the top. He mainly used cavalry and shooting to curb the Hu Ben Army in Dongjiabao. At that time, Jianlu had not yet formed the Guardian Camp and the Flying Cavalry Camp, and only the Forward Battalion was the Khan's personal army. It can be imagined that this Forward Battalion was naturally the elite among the elite.

Sure enough, after the launch of Gebush Xianchao's camp (a very difficult name, it's better to call the Forward Battalion in the future), the morale of the Jin army has indeed increased a lot. The negative impact of yesterday's defeat was almost negligible. Even the Khan's personal soldiers were dispatched, so what else dared to say? Of course, it was to make all preparations and prepare to die under the walls of Dongjiabao.

A large number of ladders were also driven out. The strongholds of the Hu Ben Army were not high in the city walls, and only ladders were enough. All the houses in several prefectures and counties near the battlefield were demolished by the Tatars, and all the wood was used as siege weapons. Huang Taiji still firmly believed that as long as his troops could reach the city of Dongjiabao, victory was at your fingertips.

"Sir, it seems to be Huang Taiji's personal soldier..."

The sharp-eyed officer of the Tiger Ben Army screamed in surprise when he noticed the abnormality.

"It's the forward camp."

Zhang Zhun said with a stern expression.

In Ma Yi's information, the so-called Gebush Xianchao camp was mentioned many times. Zhang Zhun was so sad that his head was hurt by this difficult name. Later, he found out that it was the meaning of the Forward Camp. According to Ma Yi's description, Huang Taiji's Forward Camp would not be easily used. However, once it was used, it would have the smell of burning boats.

Zhang Zhun suddenly discovered that Huang Taiji and Dorgon's personalities were still somewhat similar. Both of them were experts in military use and never used tactics when attacking. Once they made up their minds, they dared to take decisive actions. Jianlu's attack yesterday was unfavorable, so he immediately mobilized all his troops and used the most troops as much as possible, in order to defeat the enemy with a huge force.

The tactic of adding fuel is a taboo for military strategists. The first attack of two thousand people, the second attack of five thousand people, and the third attack of ten thousand people... Such tactics will be easily resolved by the defenders, and the attacking side will only waste manpower in vain. Huang Taiji pressed tens of thousands of people in one breath, and the pressure of the defenders will be heavy immediately. As long as a point is broken through, it may trigger the domino effect and cause the entire defense system of the Hu Ben Army to collapse.

With such determination and courage, few people can do this except Huang Taiji. At least, Haoge definitely does not have such determination and courage. No wonder Haoge was suppressed by Dorgon in real history, but he was unable to inherit the Khan throne. All of this is due to his personality!

Zhang Zhun was confident that no one could stop the tactics like Huang Taiji except the Hu Ben Army. It was definitely not a joke that tens of thousands of Tartars rushed forward. Even the Ming army in Liaodong would have a big head. Without two months of careful preparation, Zhang Zhun would not dare to win easily.

However, the Tartars' sacrifice also made Zhang Zhun feel relieved. His deployment in Hejian Prefecture was not in vain. He had made the worst plan. Even if the Tiger Ben Army in Hejian Prefecture had more than half of the casualties, it would be worth it as long as it could hurt the Tartars severely. Comparing with population and resources, where is the Tartars' opponent of the Tiger Ben Army?

"Sir, the Red Barbarian Cannon of the Tartars is coming!"

Suddenly someone shouted again.

Zhang Zhun raised the Qianli Mile Mile Mile and looked at it. Sure enough, the traitor of the Han army flag was dragging dozens of red-clothed cannons with his horses and approaching the direction of Dongjiabao. Because the red-clothed cannons were very heavy and needed four war horses to pull, the movement was very slow. The heavy wheels ran through the snow and left long and deep traces behind.

Obviously, Jianlu tried to use red-clothed cannons to blow up the walls of Dongjiabao directly. The Tatars summarized yesterday's battle, and the most critical link was the climbing link. As long as this link jumped over, the Tatars' attack would be much smoother. Using red-clothed cannons to directly blow up the walls of Dongjiabao directly, which can achieve this goal.

Hehe, I think beautifully, it’s still a little bit to say whether I can do it. If you want to push the cannon under the wall of Dongjiabao and rush towards the wall of Dongjiabao? Dreaming! Do you think our Tiger Army has no killer weapon?

"Mo Ru!"

Zhang Zhun shouted loudly.

"arrive!"

Mo Ru hurried up.

"Let go and do it!"

"Shot against the Tartars!"

Zhang Zhun said proudly.

"clear!"

Mo Ru went there excitedly.

To be honest, Mo Ru was a little depressed when he was bombarded by the red cannons of the Tartars yesterday. When used, the effect of the red cannons of the Tartars was obviously much worse than that of the Hu Ben Army Artillery Battalion. Mo Ru felt that the Tartars' artillery bombardment was completely a half-way monk and was not professional at all. If he had changed to command himself, it would have been like that.

However, that was a strategic need, and there was no way, and I had to obey. Now, I can finally fight back unscrupulously. At this point, I believe that Huang Taiji would not be able to withdraw his troops. The Hu Ben Army used all the killer moves, and the Tartars could only rush up with their teeth.

"preparation!"

"put!"

Mo Ru roared loudly.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

After a moment, the sound of thunder-like cannons shook the entire battlefield.

Amid the rumbling sound of cannons, huge iron lumps flew across the air and smashed hard towards the Tartars team. The sky was gray and black iron lumps flew through the sky, as if they had fallen from the black clouds, with a hint of weirdness.

"puff!"

The solid bullet fell into the crowd of Tartars and smashed several people on the spot.

It was impossible to scream when he was hit by the solid bullet of the red cannon. His whole person was smashed, and his flesh flew everywhere, and he instantly went to another world. The blood dyed the snow around him red, and it was shocking. After the people around him reacted, they didn't even scream, and they all seemed to be pinching their necks.

The solid bullet hit the target, and it still hit the snow with a strong casting force. The fields outside Dongjiabao were covered with mud. After the huge iron lumps fell, they directly hit the mud. On the surface of the snow, only a big opening was left, as if it was sinking.

"Red cannon!"

"The Hu Ben Army has red cannons!"
