The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 698
The Ming army could see who was fighting fiercely, and whoever was more fierce would fight that side.

The Qing soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and no one on horseback dared to shoot arrows. The Ming army specialized in archery on horseback.

The forced Qingqi can only stand behind and shoot.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, it was close to seven o'clock at this time, and the sky had become very dark.

Xu Fuzuo stood beside the horses, holding one horse in one hand and two horses in both hands, with a serious expression on his face.

On his horseback were sixteen Lumi guns.

There are many horses around with guns hanging on their backs.

Every time a blunderbuss was killed in battle, Xu asked the soldiers and sentinels to pick up the Lumi blunderbuss.

It was too late to bring back the corpses on the battlefield, but these guns had to be brought back.

He just took a look at it for the first time, and he has already collected about [-] guns.

This is still a situation where the gun shield soldiers and Cao Bianjiao soldiers are blocking the front. Fortunately, it is getting dark, as long as you hold on.

At this time, even Azig surrounded him with soldiers and horses with two white flags.

He has already discovered that the speed of pushing the cannons cannot keep up with the retreating speed of the Ming army. Their tens of thousands of troops surrounded this Ming army and turned around to attack, but they still couldn't stand it and let them advance layer by layer.

Azig should not rush to the front now, but also bring soldiers and horses to help out.

He stood beside Huang Taiji, and found that Huang Taiji's face was also extremely ugly.

There are nearly 6 elites, about [-] are watching Jinzhou, and another [-] are intercepting and chasing the Ming army everywhere. There are nearly [-] to [-] people here.

Surrounding this Wanming army, they couldn't reach it, and they fought for a long time, but they didn't take it down. The key point was that they suffered heavy casualties.

"It's getting dark." Dorgon said with a sullen face at this time.

"It's even more difficult to fight when it's dark." Huang Taiji said in a deep voice.

When it was dark, their Mongols' riding and shooting were of little use.

It is the Mongols who can barely suppress the Ming army now, and they can cause a lot of trouble for the Ming army. But Ding Yi's soldiers and horses are all armored, and they can't die unless they hit the vitals.

They were really angry and helpless when they saw many Ming soldiers still firing guns with seven or eight arrows stuck in their bodies.

Although the warriors of the Qing Dynasty used heavy arrows, they would all rush forward and fight on foot.

Once it gets dark, Mongolia's projectile effect becomes smaller, and the Qing warriors are even more difficult in front.

"Wow!" Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers in front.

It turned out that the left wing of the Ming army was breached, and almost all the spear and shield soldiers were killed there. Cao's soldiers and horses couldn't stop them, and a large number of Qing soldiers rushed in.

"Okay." The Emperor Tai was overjoyed, finally able to destroy this Ming army.

As long as the Ming army's large formation was pierced, the Qing soldiers rushed in, and the musketeers who shrank inside would follow them to kill.

It turned out that Tulai himself was wearing the elite vest with the yellow flag, and the infantry was in the lead. This wave of more than 300 people was wearing heavy armor, two or even three layers of armor. You can't kill them, or beat them out of combat power.

Tulai was very methodical in fighting. He first led the elite to watch from behind, and waited for the large number of gunmen of the Ming army in front to finish fighting.

"Chong Chong Chong" took advantage of the opportunity of the Ming army's ammunition, waved his big hand, and three hundred elites rushed forward frantically.

The gun shield soldiers and Cao Bianjiao soldiers who were facing him were defeated one after another, and he immediately opened a gap.

But Chong rushed in, and it was full of horses.

Because there are thousands of horses in the Ming army, and the people and horses are intertwined, it is not easy to kill them all at once.

Just when Tulai was extremely excited, He Daping glanced at Xu Fuzou and waved his hand.

They still have 550 reserves on hand.

It was their sentry cavalry, Xu's personal soldiers and He Daping's fifty personal soldiers.

They are all the best of the best.

Most of them are elite soldiers who survived Xu Fuzuo's last battle with Wang Weizhong in Qingshuibo.

There are three hundred sentry cavalry and two hundred personal soldiers.

This is Ding Yi's request for the general soldiers of each town. There can only be 200 personal soldiers. He Daping is equipped with [-] personal soldiers, but everyone has two wheel-wheel guns.

Plus three hundred sentry cavalry is also two for everyone.

The reserve team immediately greeted them.

On the opposite side, Tulai showed his teeth and claws, and took the lead bravely. If we defeat this Ming army today, I will make the most contribution with the yellow flag.

He was rushing forward and saw He Daping head-on.

He Daping didn't even wear iron armor, he was holding a Lumi gun in his hand, and he raised it violently to face him.

Tulai was shocked, but rushed forward without hesitation.

The Qing soldiers rushed forward one after another, but He Daping stood motionless on the spot.

The distance between the two sides quickly approached.

Bang, He Daping fired.

Tulai's body shook violently, and when he looked down, he had already been shot in the chest.

He swayed on the horse's back, but he didn't fall to the ground.

He was also brave. Relying on several layers of heavy armor, he stopped for a while and charged forward again.

He Daping threw away the Lumi blunderbuss and pulled out his waist knife, a ferocious look flashed in Tulai's eyes.

I will kill this smart dog, without the blunderbuss, you are useless.

"Ming dog." Tu Lai rushed forward regardless of his heavy injuries.

He Daping still stood at the same spot, and the distance between the two became closer and closer.

Twenty steps.

Fifteen steps.

Ten steps.

eight steps.

Just within eight steps of his rush.

He Daping suddenly pulled out a spring wheel gun from behind with his left hand.

Hold it up and hit it.

Bang, a shot hit Tulai in the face.

Tulai fell to the ground with a bang, and the Qing soldiers all around screamed.

Bang, bang, bang, the sound of wheel-wheel guns on all sides.

The reserve team of the Ming army has more than 500 people and more than 1000 guns.

The three hundred elites who had just rushed in were knocked down in pieces, and many of them were headshot at close range.

The [-] elites who rushed in almost wiped out the entire army, only a few of them crawled back out.

This gap was quickly filled, because the Ming army suffered many casualties, and the rectangular formation became smaller and smaller.

He Daping picked up the Lumi blunderbuss while loading the ammunition, and all the reserve team quickly loaded the ammunition and installed the spring wheel.

At this time, they began to wander around the formation, and when they saw that they couldn't stand it, they rushed to help.

As the sky gradually darkened, it became more and more difficult to fight fiercely in the front, but the gunmen behind could shoot guns from a distance.

The Qing soldiers retreated day by day, and the Qing soldiers in the back row were already outside Daxing Fort.

The Daxing Castle was razed by them, leaving only fragments of tiles and half of the city wall.

But in this way, their soldiers and horses in the west will not be enough, because they are blocked by Daxing Fort.

"I'm afraid I can't stop it." Dorgon sighed at this moment.

Huang Taiji's nose was bleeding again, and his expression became ferocious.

It's really not reconciled, he has been defeated repeatedly under Ding Yi's men, and this time he finally had the opportunity to destroy Ding Yi's team, but he was about to be rushed out of the siege by them again.

His 1 to [-] troops surrounded these [-] people, but it was useless.

Why is Ding Yi's soldiers and horses so elite even as a Ming man?

Looking at Cao Bianjiao, he was also a waste in his eyes. Today, the soldiers and horses following Ding Yi are like chicken blood, and they will fight to the death without retreating.

Huang Taiji is really not reconciled.

At this moment, Xu Fuzuo saw that the sky was getting dark, and the fight ahead had begun to weaken.

Darkness is even more unfavorable to the Qing soldiers. The more people there are, the easier it is to hit themselves.

The Mongolian soldiers in the rear did not dare to projectile.

"Okay, let's go, let's show them how good they are." Xu Fuzuo laughed.

The reserve team of personal soldiers and sentry cavalry laughed, and even He Daping returned to the team, and soon found a hundred-man enemy in the left pocket of a horse.

It turned out that when they threw away the carts before, their reserve team each brought two hundred enemies.

It's dark now, just to open the way.

A dozen sentry cavalry took a hundred-man enemy to the southwest, and then took turns to light the fire.

"Throw." The sentry riders galloped one by one, assisting, whoosh, the furthest one can throw more than 20 meters, and the closest one can throw more than ten meters.

The power of the explosion center is only between five and six meters, and it will not be lethal any farther away.

But they packed gasoline in the middle.

Boom, boom, explosions sounded one by one.

The Qing soldiers, who had been retreating steadily, did not expect that the Ming army still had secret weapons that were useless.

Together with the explosion, the flames also spread among them.

The Qing soldiers screamed and ran away with their heads in their hands. Many people were caught on fire, which immediately caused a chain reaction.

In the dark night, many people had fire on their bodies, like mice, running around with the flames, causing the Qing soldiers to panic everywhere and avoid them one after another.

Finally unable to stand it anymore, the Qing soldiers in the southwest collapsed instantly and fled in all directions.

One part collapsed everywhere, and the Qing soldiers on the other three sides saw it and retreated quickly.

As soon as the Qing soldiers retreated, the Ming army came alive.

The gunmen chased after them, and hit their fart drums again.

Cao Bianjiao's murderous arousal almost wanted to rush forward, but fortunately Xu Fuzuo stopped him.

"Hahaha." When Cao Bianjiao came back, he still had three arrows on his body. He didn't feel the pain, and his expression was excited: "Mr. Xu, I have been fighting with the Tartars for so many years, today is the most enjoyable day."

"General Cao fought well, his troops were elite, and he fought bravely." He Daping also hurriedly flattered him.

Cao Bianjiao looked smug, our other Ming troops are no worse than your Dongjiang town.

"Hiss..." Huang Taiji covered his nose lightly, the blood flowed more, his mood was extremely bad.

Sure enough, as Kong Youde and the others said, without artillery, it is extremely difficult to defeat Ding Yi's troops.

But today they were really out of luck. First of all, they didn't have so many soldiers and horses, and they all came to support them from all directions.

If there were [-] to [-] soldiers and horses rushing up together, it would be difficult for the Ming army to stop them.

Secondly, there happened to be Cao Bianjiao soldiers and horses, and then it was dark again.

When they fought against other Ming troops at night, all the ministries would light torches one after another, but no one dared to light torches when fighting against Ding Yi's soldiers.

Whoever approached with torches, the gunmen would hit first. After the Qing soldiers lit torches, no one dared to approach the Ming army.

But if there is no torch, the road will be unclear, the direction will be unclear, and the combat effectiveness will be reduced by half in an instant.

The Ming army had many musketeers and did not rely on hand-to-hand combat, so the darkness was in their favor.

When they saw someone moving from a distance, they just raised the gun and shot it, there was always a chance to hit it.

At this point, Huang Taiji knew that it was useless to say anything, and now he had to expand the results of the battle, and the other Ming troops could not escape.

"Order, regardless of this Ming army, block the other Ming troops first, and surround the other Ming troops with all your strength."

He had already seen that Xu Fuzuo's soldiers and horses also suffered heavy casualties, so he could barely claim a small victory.

All the ministries of the Qing army had been waiting for this order, and immediately dispersed, and all the ministries went to find other Ming troops who were easy to fight.

Soon, a large number of torches were lit, and fire dragons spread to the distance. Qing soldiers searched for other Ming troops on the battlefield and began to surround Songshan.

Seeing the Qing soldiers fleeing in all directions, "Tiger", suddenly someone in the Ming army shouted, and then more people shouted.

Then almost thousands of people shouted at the same time.

"Tiger, tiger, tiger." The constant sound of tigers on the battlefield was in stark contrast to the scattered and fled Qing soldiers.

When the Qing soldiers heard the sound, they ran even faster.

This time Huang Taiji's face became even more ugly. Originally, he thought that this battle could be regarded as a small victory, but when the Ming army called it that, people who didn't know thought they were defeated again.

"Heaven won't help me clear the Qing Dynasty." Huang Taiji was completely disheartened, very unwilling.

If it hadn't been dark, if the fight continued, the Ming army would surely be wiped out. This was the closest Huang Taiji had come to destroying Ding Yi's entire army.

Unfortunately, God did not help him, and finally it was dark.

Just after the Qing soldiers receded like a tide.

"Puchi." A Ming army stabbed the wounded Qing soldiers on the ground.

Soon, there were screams all over the battlefield, and the Ming army saw the Qing soldiers retreating, so they left in no hurry.

It was dark at this time, not to mention that their cannons were not brought up, even if they were brought up, it would not be easy to shoot.

They stabbed and killed the Qing soldiers while looking for horses everywhere.

At the same time, take this opportunity to collect the corpses of the companions, and let Cao's people be responsible for cutting off the soldiers' heads.

Now there are horses everywhere on the battlefield, especially the large number of horses left by the Qing soldiers, it is a good opportunity.

Xu Fuzuo specifically confessed that all the Lumi guns on the ground should be taken away.

Everyone also started to make torches, broke them with spears, wrapped the clothes of the Qing soldiers, and lit more than 500 torches in a while.

Originally, they had 7000 horses, which were shot and wounded by the Qing soldiers, and some of them ran away in panic. Now they have gathered again, and with the addition of the Qing soldiers' horses, they soon received more than [-] horses.

Cao Bianjiao was a little moved, because Xu Fuzuo's soldiers and horses were carrying all the dead and wounded on the horses.

He Daping said that we should try our best to bring all the brothers back.

Cao Bianjiao's face turned red, and his subordinates also looked shocked.

After this battle, both of them suffered heavy losses. Cao Bianjiao had 3000 soldiers, half of them were killed or injured, and Xu Fuzuo had [-] soldiers and horses, but also nearly half of them were killed or injured.

At first Cao Bianjiao had only a thousand family members rushing up, and the other soldiers and horses stayed in the circle to help the Ming army watch the horses. Later, the Qing soldiers came in many times, but they could only go up.

The two 9000-horse troops died in battle with a total of close to [-], which is very tragic.

The two sides died almost the same, each close to 1000 people.

It was dark at this time, and the Qing soldiers did not attack this side. Xu Fuzuo and He Daping did not dare to neglect, they speeded up the clearing of the battlefield, and then everyone got on their horses and led everyone back towards Daxing Fort.

The corpses and horses of other divisions of the Ming army were everywhere along the way. When they arrived at Daxingbao, they had collected more than 8000 horses. There were more horses than people. Many people brought two horses with them.

Xu Fuzuo was not in a hurry to hurry, and took a rest in the ruins of Daxing Fort first.

Because he knew that now that the Qing soldiers were victorious and they were killing other Ming troops everywhere, and it was dark, the Qing soldiers would definitely not want to provoke them.

Everyone had something to eat to fill their stomachs. Cao Bianjiao's soldiers and horses didn't even have any food. Fortunately, every horse on Xu Fuzuo's side brought five-day rations.

"Mr. Xu, your soldiers and horses are really elite. I don't know how to train them." Cao Bianjiao ate corn pancakes, boasting non-stop.

In the situation just now, any Ming army would have collapsed, and they just stood up to it.

"Cao Zongbing's soldiers and horses also fought well. Without you today, it would be difficult for us to break through." Xu Fuzuo also took advantage of the situation to praise him.

The generals around Cao Bianjiao were also secretly proud.

Dongjiang Town is now the strongest soldier in Daming, and it is not easy to get a compliment from them.

Suddenly someone said in the field: "Why don't we go back and take the governors and the others out?"

When everyone saw it, they didn't know who this person was.
