Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 449 Yang Wu asks for help, the heart of the King of England

On September 28, the first year of Zhaowu, Du Yinxi also led the Eighth Town, the Ninth Town, the No.14 Town Frontier Guard Army, and the Third Guard Army Township, crossed the Yellow River at Sunjiadu, and took Kaifeng Prefecture, Hebei Province the next day. The westernmost Yuanwu County in the region.

Take Yangwu on September [-], and Fengqiu on October [-].

The situation encountered by the two partial divisions was roughly the same. The green battalion soldiers in charge of defending the three counties either surrendered or abandoned the city.

This not only prevented the Ming army from losing troops and horses due to the siege, but even added auxiliary troops for the Ming army to defend the city.

Du Yinxi and several general soldiers under his command also knew that the division of troops was too much, and it was easy for the Qing soldiers to defeat them one by one. Horse's.

Therefore, in the two cities of Yuanwu and Fengqiu, Du Yinxi only left a thousand soldiers and horses, and only a few bright artillery pieces.

Firstly, these counties are not very important, and secondly, Du Yinxi is very clear about the combat effectiveness of the border guards today. When the Qing army does not have an advantage in artillery fire, even if the border guards only have 1000 people guarding the city (the county is small) , does not require too many defenders), it will take at least three days for the Qing army to break through.

With this time, it is enough for him to lead the troops to rescue.

Only Yangwu was blocked by Du Yinxi as the first food and grass transshipment site in Hebei, so Xu Yong, the commander-in-chief of the eighth town of the frontier defense army, was ordered to lead a thousand soldiers, a battalion of soldiers and horses, and a gun post to guard it.

On October [-], Du Yinxi took Yanjin again, thus overcoming Kaifeng's Hebei land.

However, within two days of Duyinxi's victory over Yanjin, he received a request for help from Yangwu County.

But [-] to [-] Qing captives appeared outside Yangwu City carrying Hongyi cannons and were attacking Yangwu...

"call-"

Du Yinxi heaved a sigh of relief after receiving the call for help from Yangwu County, showing a relaxed look.

He said to Hao Zhongzhong, Jin Shenghuan, and Cao Xun in the big tent: "This time we crossed the Hebei Expedition, although our main purpose is to put pressure on the Qing captives and order the Qing court to send reinforcements.

But if the Qing captives wantonly shrink the line of defense and retreat directly into Weihui's mansion, it will be really difficult for us.

At that time, only by asking the Military Affairs Council to increase our troops, assist the defense of Zhucheng, and guard the food roads, can we continue to enter Weihui Mansion northward and attack Xinxiang and Weihui Mansion Zhiji County.

If the Qing captives were trying to delay us for some time in Weihui Mansion, it might be delayed until winter.

At that time, if the Qing court had not increased its troops on the southern front, it would be very difficult for the Military Affairs Council to carry out its plan to surprise Beijing, and it would have to give up. "

Speaking of this, Du Yinxi picked up the request letter in his hand, smiled and said: "But now the Qing captives actually want to attack Yangwu—or their goal is not Yangwu, but our main force.

No matter what the situation is, it gives us a chance to fight against it.As long as we can fight decisively, I believe that with the current combat power of our army, even if we can't win a big victory, we can still severely defeat the Qing captives and make them lose ground.

In this way, our army will attack Weihui Mansion again, not only will it be easier, but it will also put more pressure on the Qing captives in charge of Weihui, Huaiqing, Zhangde, and Daming Mansions.

You all know the importance of Weihui Mansion. With the acquisition of Xinxiang and Ji County, we can use boats to enter the Grand Canal from Wei River and Guangji Canal, directly cutting off the escape route of the Qing captives in Yanzhou Mansion, Shandong.

At that time, unless the Qing court gave up the Qing captives in Shandong, it would inevitably increase its troops on the southern front, so our goal will be achieved. "

Hao Xiaozhong, Jin Shenghuan, and Cao Xun also nodded and smiled.

They all know that their exploits are more valuable only when they complete the strategic deployment issued by the Military Council...

Outside Yangwu City.

Azig stood on the observation car, holding a binoculars in his hand and looking up at the drones in the air two to three hundred meters away, with a gloomy face and a hint of fear in his eyes.

This was the first time he had seen the rumored drone.

Previously, although he had heard from Dorgon and others that it was certain that the Ming army had magic weapons such as drones and walkie-talkies, and he had even seen broken walkie-talkies himself, he was not sure whether these two magic weapons were really as rumored. He was always skeptical about being so miraculous.

As a general and prince who has been on the battlefield for decades and has killed countless people, he is actually not in awe of ghosts and gods—if there are ghosts and gods in the world, he killed so many people, and even raped many Han women to death. Looking for him?

However, seeing the drone with his own eyes today, his belief in the military's fear of ghosts and gods was broken.

In the end, he was just not in awe, not disbelief.

He could see clearly through the eight-fold binoculars that the drone was shaped like a big dragonfly, but it had four weird wings, which could stop and fly in mid-air like a dragonfly.

And the drone has a few weird big eyes, occasionally flashing strange lights, obviously looking down at their army formation below.

He couldn't understand how this delicate object, which was obviously artificially made, could fly in the air, and he could only believe that it was a magic weapon brought by Empress Zhaowu from the fairy world.

But if Empress Zhaowu came down to earth as a fairy, wouldn't they Qing Dynasty be against the fairy?Even against the fairy world?

How is it possible to win?

In fact, his experience in this battle is quite different from what he imagined in Xinxiang before.

First, the four cities of Yuanwu, Yangwu, Yanjin, and Fengqiu were taken by the Ming army too quickly, and the green battalion guarding the city either fled in anticipation or abandoned the city.

The general of the green battalion who abandoned the city has not seen anyone come to him to confess the crime. He must be afraid of being punished and turned into a bandit.

Second, he had previously discussed with the generals, and obtained information through other channels, and determined that Yangwu must be the place where the Ming army transferred grain and grass in Hebei.

Therefore, he led tens of thousands of Eight Banners Army and elite Green Battalion soldiers to the Heiyang Mountain in the northwest of Yangwu, hoping to use this place to avoid the detection of the Ming army.

When the main force of the Ming army went to Weihui, they sent troops to attack Yangwu.

If Yangwu can be defeated, it will be equivalent to cutting off the source of food and grass for the main force of the Ming army in Yanjin. Even if the Ming army does not retreat in disorder at Jieshi, they will retreat to the Yellow River in a hurry. Ming army.

In this way, with his military exploits, his status may be said to be above Dorgon's - don't look at him and Dorgon's brothers, but he is actually dissatisfied with the difference in status between them now.

Dorgon can be the regent, even the emperor's uncle, why can't he, Azig?

He is Dorgon's real brother!
However, they originally hid well in Heiyang Mountain, and indeed avoided the detection of the Ming army's scouts.

But just yesterday, drones appeared in the sky above Heiyang Mountain, and they saw their camp in the mountain—thanks to them being prepared for drones, people stare at the sky with binoculars every day. Not necessarily aware of what was seen by the drone.

Since they were detected by the drones of the Ming army, it would be useless for them to hide in Heiyang Mountain.Only then did he give the order to march out of the camp that day to attack Yangwu.

"Report to the general, the eagle trainers are ready!" shouted a belt of knife guards from under the watch car.

Hearing this, Azig put down the binoculars, with an excited and expectant look in his eyes, and said loudly: "Then let them release Haidongqing and destroy the evil weapons of the Ming army. Of course, if they can be captured alive, this king will I will reward them greatly!"

"Whoo!"

The guard with the knife responded and went to deliver the order.

Azig picked up the binoculars again and looked at a place not far away, where five falconers were waiting with a majestic Costinus on each arm.
