The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 143 The plan is all messed up

Not long after, the creaking sound of the axle came from the north side, obviously something heavy was loaded on the car.

Lin Yaotian couldn't help beaming with joy, since Shi Fu surrendered to captives, the area around Pucheng has been unable to move around.Fortunately, Alin suggested that the Qing army convoy could be attacked in the narrow area between Xianxiaguan and Pucheng, which led to the ambush.

He cupped his fists at the tall man, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Hua Xing, the thief's car has arrived, we will act according to the plan."

"Okay!" The latter spat out the betel nuts in his mouth, flew on the horse, and drew out his waist knife, "Mother! Let these Jian slaves know that I, Zhang Guoxuan, can kill them on the shore!"

After a while, countless torches suddenly lit up within a mile around.Immediately after the rear of Tong Peng's convoy, there were two loud bangs, and the gunpowder buried in the ground blew up the last car to pieces and collapsed on the road.

Then two groups of people and horses poured out from the forest on the left and right sides, raised their knives and rushed towards the carts shouting.

Although there were only a few hundred of Tong Peng's subordinates, they did not show panic. First, they quickly connected the trucks into two rows, placed the cannons in the middle, and some gunmen climbed onto the roof of the trucks, ready to condescend to fire guns.

And following the noise from Tong Peng's side, the two Qing troops two miles away from the east and west sides of the battlefield also issued orders at the same time to encircle Lin Yaotian and Zhang Guoxuan's rebel troops.

Lin Yaotian led his team to rush forward only ten feet away, but he felt something was wrong.

He has robbed Jianlu's luggage several times, and has never seen an opponent so calm and composed.At this time, they were still two or three hundred steps away, and these captive troops had already set up a defensive position.

For a moment, he even wanted to order a retreat, but seeing Zhang Guoxuan's people still rushing forward, he could only grit his teeth and continue, hoping in his heart that with twice the strength of the captive army, he could quickly defeat the enemy escorting the chariot and burn them to death. The supplies on the vehicle were withdrawn immediately.

Suddenly, a dazzling flame broke out in the Jianlu convoy, followed by a deafening roar.

Accompanied by the sharp piercing sound, several volunteer soldiers beside Lin Yaotian disappeared from his side in an instant as if swallowed by an invisible giant beast, warm blood spattered all over his face.

cannon? !He immediately understood, but why are there cannons in the convoy transporting food and grass? !

Although the bombardment only killed about [-] people, under the appalling momentum, the momentum of the rebel army's charge suddenly faltered, and everyone slowed down and turned their heads to look at their commander.

Can't give up halfway, fight!Lin Yaotian shook his heart, pointed the knife forward, and shouted: "Revenge for the brothers! Follow me!"

There was also a burst of shouts from the rebel army, each holding a weapon and still going forward.

As soon as the shouts fell, the cannons in the Qing army convoy fired again, and many people were shot and killed immediately.

Lin Yaotian suddenly felt that someone was pulling him back, turned his head to look, and saw A Lin kneeling on the ground with tears in his face, hissing: "General, retreat quickly, there is an ambush for Jianlu!"

"what?"

Alin glanced at the pile of minced meat beside him, and sobbed loudly, "I, I was obsessed with ghosts, and I took 800 taels of silver. This, this is what they asked me to do..."

Lin Yaotian suddenly felt dizzy, it turned out that the captive army had already known his movements, no wonder they counterattacked so calmly.

He knocked Ah Lin over with a whip, looked up into the distance, and saw a series of torches on both sides of the east and west approaching continuously, and hurriedly shouted: "Sing the gong! Get out!"

However, to the north is Xianxia Pass, and to the south is Shi Fu's defense zone, so where can we go?
Lin Yaotian couldn't think of a way for a while, so he could only take one step at a time.He commanded his rebel army to retreat to the south, and asked his guards to ride horses to warn Zhang Guoxuan, saying that there was a traitor betraying him, so retreat quickly!

……

Seeing that it was getting dark, Zhu Linmi ordered the Dragon Guards to continue approaching north.

According to the established plan, the Dragon Guards will arrive five miles away from Xianxia Pass before midnight, and Liu Guoxuan's Fifth Infantry Battalion, as an assault unit, will approach even two or three miles before the pass.Then wait for Zheng Chenggong to steal the pass gate, hold fire as a sign, and then rush into Xianxia pass together.

Due to the narrow pass and the narrow road, it could not accommodate too many people to attack, so the Polu camp was still [-] miles away as a support for the Chinese army.

Just as Zhu Linmi led the team several miles away, they suddenly heard a burst of cannon fire from the north side. From a distance, they could see a burst of torches, and then there was the sound of shouting and killing like a tide, which was very clear in the silent night.

Could it be that his whereabouts were exposed?While he was wondering, some hussars guarding the outside rushed back to report that a large number of Qing troops were found ahead, divided into east and west teams, and they were fighting with people.The number of people is at least three thousand or more.

"Why are you starting a war in front of Xianxia Pass? Someone is attacking the pass?" Zhu Linmi frowned.

"My lord, it seems that the captive army has not discovered us." Zhang Jiayu said aside, "Should we let the army hide first?"

Zhu Linmi shook her head slightly, although she didn't know who was fighting Jianlu, but it was not his habit to refuse to save him.In addition, there are at least [-] Qing troops nearby, and it is not easy to hide from them.

He immediately issued an order: "Let the infantry face north and form a horizontal formation, and the cavalry cover the two wings. The artillery moves to the high ground that we saw when we came over just now, and shoots freely." He thought for a while, and said, "For now, don't Light the torch."

"Yes!"

Soon another scout came galloping on horseback, shouting loudly: "Report! Although the unknown team was flanked, it has already broken through and is coming towards us."

In this way, the retreating team is likely to break up the formation of the Dragon Guards.Zhu Linmei thought for a while, and quickly made adjustments, "The infantry was changed to a battalion-based line, and a distance of [-] steps was left between each battalion to let these people pass."

"Yes!"

As soon as the formation of the Dragon Guards was adjusted, the rebels retreated nearby.

The night was dim, and the rebels didn't see a large group of people until they were twenty steps away, and they broke out in a cold sweat. When they found out that it was the Ming army, they breathed a sigh of relief as if they had escaped from death.

Soon Lin Yaotian also learned that there was a group of Ming troops in the rear, almost weeping with joy, he immediately sent someone to contact the Ming army, and asked his followers to gather and defeat the troops.

Even if the cavalry of the Dragon Guards led the rebels to pass through the gap between the infantry formations, a large group of people and horses could be seen chasing after them a little far away, and the densely packed torches lit up the night sky red.

To be honest, Tong Peng was not satisfied with this battle.These disorderly troops unexpectedly stopped their charge at the last moment, and at the same time turned their heads and fled south.

Only a little bit, the brigades on both sides were able to complete the encirclement.Could it be that the cannon fire was too powerful to scare them away?He shook his head a little annoyed, knowing that he would not have so many cannons.

But the current situation is acceptable.As long as the army drives these people all the way south, they will soon be intercepted near Pucheng, and they can still catch them all!
Suddenly a loud gunshot interrupted Tong Peng's thoughts, he turned around and cursed: "Bastard! Be careful of accidental injury..."

But he immediately shut his mouth, and turned back suspiciously—the sound of the cannon just now seemed to come from the south.
