Chapter 169 From now on, everything will be safe?
Julu, Xuan Dajun's camp in Jiazhuang, Lu Xiangsheng was watching the results of the battles reported by the battalions in the tent of the Chinese army.

He was full of smiles, and he had won a lot on the three defense lines. Zhang Cheng and Yang Guozhu's south side had beheaded 590 and eight ranks, and Hu Dawei and Jiang Mingwu had also beheaded 430 and four ranks on the north line.

And Lu Xiangsheng's supervising battalion at the east gate also beheaded 460 and seven levels, and these added up to more than 500 levels. Lu Xiangsheng estimated that the actual number of casualties of the Qing army should exceed [-], or even more.

However, the battle was brutal, and there were more than 1000 casualties in each battalion, of which more than [-] were killed in battle, and many of the remaining wounded were seriously injured.

After all, under the attack of the Qing army's artillery and rockets, all the battalions were a little surprised. If they were caught off guard, the casualties would inevitably be greater.

Moreover, the Qing army advanced very violently, and each battalion fought close to the slaves. Although they held the line of defense, they suffered heavy casualties.

However, as the side that defended victoriously, the wounded were rescued back to the camp in time, unlike when the Qing army retreated, leaving most of the wounded soldiers on the battlefield, allowing the victors to slaughter wantonly.

All the generals of Xuanda gathered in Lu Xiangsheng's military tent, discussing military affairs, eating and drinking, all the generals were full of praise for Zhang Cheng's defense line arrangement.

Under such a defensive situation, the Qing army's superiority in strength could not be brought into play at all, but its own sergeants had the best position. Although it could not be said that it was a one-sided massacre, it still had obvious advantages.

Lu Xiangsheng also praised Zhang Cheng very much, and then loudly encouraged the generals in the tent, saying: "In the first battle today, our army defeated the fierce front of the captives. Now that the slaves have lost their spirit, all the soldiers just need to hold on to the camp. The slave thief will be exhausted, and his fighting spirit will be exhausted, so there is nothing to worry about.

At that time, Eunuch Gao led Guan Ning's army to come again. With a thunder strike, the tens of thousands of slave soldiers gathered here should be wiped out in one go.
All the generals are of one mind to get rid of the serious troubles in our hearts and minds for my great Ming, and from now on, things will be worry-free. "

All the generals clasped their fists together and shouted in unison: "Be brave in front of the battle and kill slaves for the country!"

There was laughter in the military tent, Guo Yingxian toasted Zhang Cheng more frequently, Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei also praised Zhang Cheng greatly, toasted him one after another, Zhang Cheng also quickly returned their respects.

During the banquet, Jiang Mingwu, a guerrilla from Shanxi Township, also came to toast: "General Zhang, not only is he brave in front of the battle, but also convincing in his thoughts and thoughts. Jiang Mingwu respects General Zhang."

Zhang Cheng knows that Jiang Mingwu is also considered a loyal general. He was born in a hereditary military family, and he has been in the army all year round.

Holding the wine bowl, he stood up and said, "Forgive me, General Jiang, this bowl of wine should belong to General Zhang Chengjing."

After the two drank together, Zhang Cheng got up again and went to Jiang Mingwu's case to pay a respectful drink.

Zhang Yan sat under Yang Guozhu, seeing his nephew Zhang Cheng being praised so highly by the governors and the generals, he was very happy from the bottom of his heart, but he pretended to be deep and did not show his emotions.

He deeply felt that Zhang Cheng had great ambitions in his heart, and his own abilities were limited, so he might not be able to protect him all the time. Now, Duchen Lu, Yang Junmen, and even Shanxi Zhenhujunmen all admire him, maybe there will be more in the future At least they will shelter him.

Zhang Cheng turned back to his seat, looked at the generals drinking happily in the tent, and fell into deep thought.

He knew very well that now that Dorgon has gathered so many main forces of the Qing army, he will never retreat easily. Although he defended the line of defense today, the Qing army has not been broken through by the Qing army, but the Qing army outside the camp is several times larger than himself. Army defeated.

As for Gao Qiqian's side, Zhang Chengcheng really didn't dare to report any hope. That guy was already afraid of the Qing army like a tiger, and now outside Jiazhuang, the Qing army is powerful, so he avoided it because he was afraid that it would not be enough, how could he come to help.

…………

At the same time, the atmosphere in the various camps of the Qing army was very dull. Pieces of Qing soldiers lit fires, drank water, and ate food in silence. .

On the bank of the Laozhang River in the east of Jiazhuang, in front of the tents of the middle army in Dorgon's camp, there are several banners woven with golden dragons.

In the tent of the Chinese army, the flag leaders of the Manchurian and Mongolian banners in the Qing army, as well as Baylor and other important generals in the banners gathered here, all of them looked gloomy and did not say a word.

The casualties of the various banners they participated in the battle today have been counted, which really shocked everyone in the tent. Today's battle was mere, and they did not try their best to break the camp. The entire army has more than 2000 casualties, which is not counted. The gunners of the Ming army who died in battle.

Among them, the number of warriors killed in battle in each banner was as high as more than 1000. These people were warriors in vests, infantry armor, etc. in each banner.

Dorgon sat behind the big table above, without any expression on his face, and only stared at a table in the middle of the big tent.

After the reports of the bannermen attacking Xuan Dajun's Jiazhuang camp, a hastily drawn Xuan Dajun's defense plan appeared in front of everyone. Looking at this sketch, everyone took a breath.

Hauge, Prince of He Shuosu, said first: "The northern line of the Ming army is exhausted. If we attack again today, we will be able to break through."

Hearing this, Dorgon raised his head slightly, glanced at all the generals in the tent, but didn't look at Hauge, and returned to the map in the middle.

Doro Rao Yubeile Abatai looked up at Dorgon, and said: "The Ming army's fortress is strong and full of fighting spirit, it is indeed not easy to conquer, how to attack tomorrow, it really needs a good plan, and it must not be forced to attack , only increased the casualties of my warriors."

Hauge glared at Abatai angrily, and was about to say something when Dorgon, who was above him, said: "Today, although our warriors suffered some casualties, we also tested the strength and weakness of the Ming army's defenses everywhere.
We all know the camp layout of Lu Xiangsheng's troops in the Ming Army. The camp is surrounded by earth walls and ditches on three sides, and each has several flat passages. The rest are ditches everywhere, which are extremely slippery and difficult to cross;
The defense line in the east is slightly narrower. Judging from the banner, it should be the Supervising Battalion led by Lu Xiangsheng, but this department is equipped with large artillery, and the firearms are sharper;
The defense lines on the south and north sides are wider. The south side is the Yang Guozhu and Zhang Yan tribes of Xuan Town of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming guerrilla Zhang Cheng is also defending this side. Judging from his tactics, he uses firearms flexibly and cavalry advances and retreats well, but he is a strong enemy;
To the north are the Shanxi Zhenhu Dawei and Jiang Mingwu tribes. Today, their tribes are not as flexible and courageous as the Ming army in the south. Although they also repelled our warriors, they suffered a lot of casualties. "

"Tomorrow, our army will mainly attack the Ming army's north and east defense lines. At the same time, we will also attack the Ming army's south with all its strength, so that it will have no spare power to reinforce the northern defense line. We will also send a team of surprise soldiers to attack from the banks of the Haoshui River in the northwest. The west side of the Ming army camp;

All of you must lead all the warriors under your command to fight bravely, destroy this Ming army here, and get rid of Lu Xiangsheng! "
