1635 Han style rises again

Chapter 528 Dengzhou Flesh Mill ([-])
On the ninth day of November (November 11), the Qing army camp in Penglai County, Shandong.

After hearing the messenger's words, Hauge's face froze, and then he widened his eyes and looked directly at the person coming.

"Prince Su, I dare not lie." The eight-banner armored cavalry hurriedly said: "The other party has indeed come with dozens of large and small ships, including more than a dozen huge gunboats. The enemy troops who raided Ye County should be no less than thousands People. The slaves in charge of Shen came to report the news quickly, and asked the commander to send troops to rescue. If you come late, you may be broken by the enemy!"

"Huitaqi leads more than a thousand troops, so why can't they hold out for five or six days?" Luo Luo said angrily.

Nono dared not speak, and knelt on the ground, waiting for Hauge to make a decision.

"Marshal, I will bring [-] Banner armored cavalry back to Ye County, and I will surely defeat the sneak attacking enemy!" Luo Luohun said loudly: "The Ming army is weak, so naturally there will not be too many troops. They mobilized boats to surprise us Ye County is an area rich in food and grass, and the number of people must be only one or two thousand. This move is to force our army to return without success to relieve the danger of Penglai. Huaitaqi's slaves lead more than a thousand troops. Even if they cannot retreat the enemy, they will certainly be able to hold the city. At worst, it can last for five or six days. I will lead the armored cavalry and rush back quickly, attacking inside and outside, and I will surely defeat the enemy and release the food and the army."

Hauge groaned silently, looking at Li Sutai, Geng Zhongming and others.

"Commander, let's retreat." Li Shuitai said in a deep voice: "Since the enemy dared to send boats and boats to bypass our army and raid Ye County, it must have been planned. If one is careless, it will be destroyed by the enemy. In Ye County, our army may be in danger of accidents. Now, there are only three to five days of food and grass left in the camp, and it cannot last long!"

"My [-]-strong army, laboring on an expedition, has now returned without success, and has lost thousands of troops, which has ruined our reputation in the Qing Dynasty. When the regent hears about it, he will definitely punish us severely." Luo Luohun said: "No, my army Pretending to withdraw the troops, the Ming army in Penglai County will definitely come to pursue them. Our army set up an ambush on the main road in the mountain, attacked and chased the Ming army in one fell swoop, then turned around and captured Penglai, captured and killed the prince, and pacified Dengzhou. Afterwards, our army returned , and regained Ye County."

Hearing this, Hauge's heart moved. If Luo Luohun's idea is really followed, he can take this opportunity to capture Penglai and restore Dengzhou. Even if he loses Ye County and food, it will be worth it.

"Prince Yanxi, if the Ming army in Penglai City doesn't come to pursue, how will our army respond?" Geng Zhongming said to Luo Luohun, clasping his fists: "In this way, our army may waste a day's retreat in vain. At that time, I'm afraid Most of the soldiers were unable to support Ye County. To make matters worse, if Ye County is also captured by the enemy, we will have to retreat all the way to Qingzhou, which is a journey of more than ten days. If this is the case, the servant is afraid..."

After Hauge heard this, his heart skipped a beat.Pingping Denglai, returning without success, with the credit of Jingping Shandong in front, is nothing more than letting Dorgon issue an order, and the worst result is demotion and fine silver.But if he loses his troops and loses his territory, or even the entire army is wiped out, maybe Dorgon will take the opportunity to put him to death.

"Beat the drums, gather the generals!" Hauge turned around and ordered: "Prepare the whole army to attack Penglai again!"

"Handsome!..."

"Prince Su!..."

Luo Luohun, Li Sutai, Geng Zhongming and others were shocked, and they wanted to persuade them again.Since we don't withdraw our troops, we can't gather a large army to attack the city again!Since the defeat of the artillery battle a few days ago, the Qing army only organized small-scale troops to attack the city every day, maintaining continuous pressure on Penglai County.Now after listening to Hauge, he actually wants to order the whole army to attack the city. Isn't this a waste of troops?

"Since there is not much food, why don't we let those descended troops try to attack again. It would be best if they can break through the city. If they can't make meritorious deeds, they can save thousands of mouths." Hauge said coldly: "Li Sutai, Geng Zhongming, the two of you go back to your camp immediately to pack your bags and prepare to retreat to Ye County. Luo Luohun, you lead all the armored cavalry to the rear of the surrendered army, and supervise them to storm Penglai!"

"Whoo!"

"Whoo!"

"Hey!..."
-
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." On the main city of Penglai County and the several castles in front of it, the artillery fired all kinds of shells desperately, wading through countless blood paths among the densely packed Jiannu charging crowd, with broken hands and limbs. , Visceral flow, shouts, cries, cursing, artillery roar, musket shooting, all rang out.

After several days of fighting, the Ming army defending the city seemed to have gradually adapted to the battlefield environment. In front of the swarming Jiannu, they could use all kinds of weapons according to the orders of the officers, desperately harvesting the lives of the enemies.Jiannu's offensive wave after wave, like waves in the sea, trying to smash and push away the rocks in front of it.However, the rocks as hard as iron remained motionless in the beating of the turbulent waves, as if they were crushing waves of waves.

Human life seems to have turned into a speck of dust between heaven and earth at this moment. Along with the fluttering snowflakes, they are silent in the mud together. Gradually, the ground turns crimson, turning the muddy snow Dyed bright red.Teams of desperate soldiers fled backwards desperately, and the officers who supervised the formation led their servants to wield their knives and slashed the fugitives to the ground one by one.When more and more deserters gathered, the dejected officers had no choice but to follow the defeated soldiers and flee back to the front.

Luo Luohun rode on the horse, stretched out his hand expressionlessly and waved forward, ordering the next wave of descendants to continue attacking.Prince Su is right, if thousands of people die, it will save thousands of mouths for my soldiers of the Eight Banners.Although he didn't quite believe that the Ming army would break through Ye County in a short period of time, it was very necessary to consume more of the strength of these surrendered troops.Anyway, it's them, the Han people, fighting each other, and it doesn't hurt me in the slightest.At the same time, he also felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction in his heart when he saw countless former Daming officers and soldiers marching forward to attack the city under the command of my Eight Banners.

These Nikans deserve to die!If I had known such a desperate effort, why would I be driven by my Qing Dynasty now?This Ming Dynasty's paintings and paintings may really be taken over by my Qing Dynasty as the regent said.

With the rapid defeat of Li Zicheng and the annexation of Gyeonggi, Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi and other places, the rulers of the Qing Dynasty, dominated by Dorgon, began to develop ambitions to occupy the entire Ming Dynasty.

On the seventh day of April, when Dorgon sent troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, he commanded two-thirds of the Mongolian soldiers in Manchuria, as well as the three kings of the Han army Gongshun and the soldiers of Xushun, totaling more than [-], almost two-thirds of the entire Qing army.

In August, my Qing emperor entered the customs, entered Beijing, collected all the soldiers and horses in the country, and confiscated Heilongjiang, Yupi Kingdom (now Sakhalin Island area), Nuzhendingkou, Horqin, Khalkha Mongolia and other places Tens of thousands of troops were brought into the pass, making the strength of the Qing Dynasty unprecedentedly strengthened, and it was ready to start to wipe out all the forces of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, if the Dengzhou Ming army was not defeated, it will not affect the overall situation of our Qing Dynasty.At worst, next time, let's bring more soldiers and horses, and prepare more food and grass. I still don't believe that we won't be able to take down this small Penglai County.

After Wang Guodong, the general of Linqing, heard the whisper of Lieutenant General Ge Jie, he turned his head in shock and looked at Luo Luohun, who was in charge of the formation.

"Are you sure?" Wang Guodong asked in a deep voice, "Could it be gathering troops to attack elsewhere?"

"Sure." Ge Jie showed a trace of anger on his face, "The Eight Banners Han Army is already packing up, and they may leave their camp at any time. ... Besides, we have never heard that Prince Su ordered another attack. They are Get ready...to run!"

"Fuck him!" Wang Guodong cursed in a low voice, "It must be something happened in our rear that made the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners prepare to retreat first."

"My lord, then we..." Ge Jie glanced back at the flesh and blood mill-like battlefield behind him, and said with lingering fear: "The Eight Banners will not let us deliberately stay to die, but they turned around and slipped away!"

"What the hell, we're going to die together!" Wang Guodong pulled Ge Jie to his side, whispering something in his ear, with a hint of ferocity on his face.

The officers and soldiers of the Qing army in Binzhou Town and Dezhou Town who were taking turns attacking the city suddenly turned around and ran back, shouting while running.

"The Eight Banners soldiers have run away!"

"The army is surrounded!"

"The battalion has run out of food and grass, and the soldiers of the Eight Banners have already left!"

The officers and soldiers of the Qing army in Yanzhou Town and Baoding Town in the back watched the countless routs rushing, and when they were in doubt, the officers and soldiers of Linqing Town in the formation also became agitated, and some people kept shouting.

"The army is defeated, and the Eight Banners soldiers have already fled!"

"Eight Banners run first!"

"..."

Luo Luo, who was supervising the battle at the back, was stunned to see countless descendants rolling backwards and rushing towards them.The armored cavalry in front wanted to slash at these retreating fugitives with their knives, but they were swallowed up by the surging rout in an instant, and then came towards the camp.

"Quickly report to Prince Yu Su!" Luo Luohun shouted loudly: "The army has collapsed, and it is impossible to suppress it....Let the infantry of the Eight Banners Han army withdraw quickly!"

After finishing speaking, Da Ma led two thousand eight-banner cavalry and rushed over to meet the rout.If these routs cannot be blocked for a while, and the defeat is involved in the camp, then it is not a safe retreat, and it will inevitably lead to the collapse of the entire army.

Following the defeat of Jiannu, the garrison at the head of Penglai County burst into cheers.Before noon, Jiannu suddenly launched an attack of nearly [-] people in turn, which caught the defenders in the city a little off guard. If the artillery hadn't desperately suppressed Jiannu's offensive, they might have captured another fortress.

Today, the defenders of Penglai County have gradually figured out some defensive skills in the continuous offensive and defensive battles for several days. After the ground bombardment, Jiannu assembled and charged, forming far and near fire coverage and cross-attacking by several forts. As a result, in today's siege process, most of Jiannu were repelled by artillery fire before they rushed to the fortress, and suffered heavy casualties. .

"How do I look at it, this is a bit like the defeat of the entire Jiannu army!" Luo Shouzhang held up the binoculars, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

"Could it be that Jiannu wanted to feign defeat and lure me out of the city to fight?" Jiang Yongrui shook his head and said, "There are only five or six thousand defenders in our city, how dare we go out to fight in waves? Jiannu..., Jiannu must have a problem in the rear! ...You General Qi and Niu captured Ye County?"

"Be safe, let's wait and see." Luo Shouzhang hesitated for a moment, and suggested: "In case, Jiannu leaves a cavalry team in the rear and waits for us to go out of the city to pursue it, that would be bad."

"After this battle, no matter what, hundreds of cavalry will be brought out." Jiang Yongrui thought to himself.

In the battle, the Qing army surrendered and the Ming army was on the way to attack Penglai. After hearing that the food and grass on the road were cut off, the Eight Banners soldiers retreated first, and suddenly retreated, which led to the collapse of the army and retreated westward one after another.The Eight Banners Armored Cavalry couldn't suppress the bullets, and after a little blocking, they escorted the Eight Banners Han infantry and retreated to Ye County.

The siege of Penglai was resolved.During the ten-day siege of the city, more than [-] prisoners and slaves were killed, five red-clothed cannons were seized, and countless supplies were captured.

On the tenth day of November, after confirming that the Jiannu had been defeated, Jiang Yongrui, the commander-in-chief of Denglai, led [-] officers and soldiers to pursue them all the way. Near the Xidahe (now Huangshui River, Shandong), he killed and wounded two Jiannu soldiers who were thrown away after being captured. More than a thousand.In the evening of the same day, the slave-building army retreated to Huang County (now Longkou City, Shandong Province).

After searching for half a day, there was little to be found in the city. Jiannu was furious, set fire to the city, and then continued to retreat to Ye County.
