Chapter 671

Duoduo rushed out of the big tent in a few steps, when the person who reported the news jumped off his horse, he immediately stepped forward and grabbed him, and said anxiously: "What's going on, how many people are there for the barbarians?!"

The man panted with a pale face: "Hui, Hui General, last night the rear army was stationed at the Mashan Pass, and just about to break out of the camp this morning, the Ming army suddenly rushed out from the east, with 7000 or [-] people! Our army was caught off guard. Irresistible..."

Shang Kexi's team can be regarded as a relatively weak team under Duduo, even if they are fully prepared for a head-on confrontation, they are definitely not the opponent of the Dragon Guards, let alone a surprise attack.

Fortunately, luck is not bad.He himself brought half of his men and horses to advance close to the Chinese army, in order to be able to catch up with the last one when they attacked Nanjing. He only left the old, weak, and luggage at the end, but he never thought that someone would attack.

Therefore, the first battle of the Ming army only wiped out 4000 people who fell to the rear, and it is gratifying to be able to escape.

Duoduo frowned, "Six to seven thousand people... suddenly appeared in the rear team? Could it be that these barbarians fell from the sky?!"

He really couldn't figure out that when his 15 troops approached the city of Nanjing, the Ming army dared not to defend the city, but instead attacked him in the Mashan area.

He was thinking for himself when he saw several horsemen rushing towards him. When he got close, the man on horseback shouted: "Report! The former army encountered southerners near Huanglongyan!"

Duoduo stopped those people and asked them carefully. It turned out that the Ashan tribe who was the most advanced suddenly encountered the Ming army this morning, and the two sides fought a small encounter.Ah Shan lost 400 people, and the other party seemed unwilling to fight, so they each retreated several miles and confronted each other from a distance.

Shuosai on the side asked in surprise, "How many Southerners are there?"

"Back to the general, about four or five thousand."

Didn't it mean that there were only [-] to [-] Ming troops in the Jiangnan area?Duoduo was very puzzled, Geng Zhongming, Mu Jilun and others killed more than [-] Nanjun troops, and Huanglongyan and Mashan combined had more than [-]. Could it be that Nanjing is now an empty city? !

He immediately remembered that Chitat's 300 troops "disappeared" near Ximing Mountain in the north. [-]% of them were also ambushed by southerners, but they didn't know how many enemy troops there were.

Huanglongyan, Mashan, Ximingshan, these places are strung together, and his pupils shrank immediately. He hurriedly turned back to the army tent, took out the map and looked at it, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart - the main force of his army was nearly 10 Tens of thousands of horses are now in the area from Huanglongyan to Mashan, and there are only five passages connecting this area to the outside world.In addition to the three places where traces of the Ming army have been found, there are Daren Mountain on the south side and the junction of Jurong River and Tangshui River in the northeast to leave here.

Could it be that the barbarians wanted to block our army within the range of more than 20 miles? !Dodo narrowed his eyes in disbelief, how is this possible?Where did they get so many horses? !
But he immediately thought that at this moment, his army was in a messy formation, stretching back and forth for more than ten miles. If the Nan people could gather tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and attack all around at this time, he would not be able to take care of both ends, and fell into chaos. middle.

No!The southerners will not shoot at the target indiscriminately, they may really have a large army besieging them!

Judging from their ability to defeat Shang Kexi's 4000 men and their slight advantage over Ah Shan's former army, their combat power should not be underestimated.Previously, the Southerners lost consecutive defeats in Wuqishan, Jurong and other places, ruining the performance of nearly ten thousand people. I am afraid it was just to show me that I am weak and lure me to underestimate the enemy...

He didn't dare to think about it any longer. Fortunately, the situation hadn't reached the worst level yet. It should still be an advantage to control his own troops. As long as he could gather a large army and reorganize the battle formation, he would not be afraid of the tricks of the Southerners!
As far as the level of fighting is concerned, Duoduo can be ranked in the top three in the whole Qing Dynasty, and he is quite old-fashioned and calm before the battle.

He immediately made the most reasonable countermeasures, and said to Shuo Sai: "I will send [-] fine riders to Daren Mountain and the lower reaches of the Tangshui River to investigate, and if you encounter the Southern Army, come back and report immediately.

"A Shan, Line Guo'an, Gong Adai, Zu Runze, Zhang Hongmo and other divisions of the Chinese Army each dispatched more than a thousand people to guard the main road, and then led the remaining troops to gather at our camp immediately."

Shuosai looked at him in surprise when he heard the words, "General, why did you suddenly gather the army..."

"Hurry up!" Duoduo roared, "Order all the ministries to arrive within half a day, and anyone who violates the law will be executed immediately!"

"Hey!" Shuo Sai didn't dare to say any more, and hurriedly turned and left the tent.

Duo Duo looked at his back, and suddenly remembered that before the South Expedition, Dorgon specially told himself that he must "never underestimate the enemy, do not divide troops, and do not advance rashly."

He couldn't help sighing secretly, "Brother Nine was the one who predicted the enemy first. Although I was always cautious at the beginning, I fell into the way of the southerners without anyone noticing... I just hope that I don't make a big mistake this time."

He thought for a while, but still felt uneasy, and then ordered the messenger to say: "Send people to summon Zhu Mala and Shi Tingzhu's troops back to help the Chinese army, leaving only Geng Zhongming's green battalion to continue besieging Jiangning City."

"Whoo!"

……

That night.

Downstream of the Tangshui River, the camp of the Ming Army.

Seeing Deng Shan and Gan Hui approaching quickly, Shi Lin signaled before they could open their mouths: "Your Majesty has been waiting, the two generals, get in quickly."

The two entered the emperor's camp and saluted: "Your Majesty, just now Commander Yu Xinyu sent the news that his men and horses had arrived at Ximing Mountain at Wushi, and there were no captives."

"It's finally closed."

Zhu Linmei finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Even though he and the generals of the staff plan the battle deployment in detail, it is difficult for the battlefield to change rapidly.

In the afternoon, he went to the battlefield in person and witnessed the battle where Deng Shan and Gan Hui led their troops to defeat the army behind Jianlu.There was no suspense in the course of the battle. In just over an hour, the Qing army collapsed, and was intercepted and killed by Ma Wenhu's cavalry, and almost all of them were captured and killed.

It's just that he didn't expect that Shang Kexi's troops were split into two parts, the front and the back, so that they could not wipe out all the troops behind Duoduo Palace. It is estimated that Shang Kexi still has at least 1 people in his hands.

Later, Yu Zhen and Sun Qi, who were in charge of outflanking the Polu camp on the west side, reported that they had accidentally encountered nearly a thousand cavalry from the Jianlu forward Ashan tribe.Presumably, the latter was eager to grab credit and led a small team of Qingqi without authorization, throwing off his own large force and rushing to Nanjing.

Although Yu Zhen easily defeated the incoming enemy, he failed to wipe out Ashan's troops in a sudden encounter.

After these two unexpected battles, I am afraid that most of them have already startled the enemy. At this time, Yu Xin's troops in the direction of Ximing Mountain have not yet completed the encirclement due to the long distance of the attack.Zhu Linmi has been waiting for news for a long time, and she is worried that Duoduo will escape from the north side.

Fortunately, there was no sign of Jianlu suddenly going north, and Yu Xin finally arrived at the predetermined position.

In this way, the Ming army has completed the encirclement from five directions, and Duoduo found himself in danger, but there is no way to escape to heaven. More than 9 Qing troops have become shackles.

Zhu Linmei glanced at the stars in the sky, and said solemnly to Deng Shan: "The whole army is ordered to launch a general attack from five directions at the same time according to the signal of the Chinese army tomorrow morning.

"Kill the thief in one battle!"

"Yes!"

At the same time, Ashan, He Luohui, Rong Guoan, Gong Adai, Zu Runze, Zhang Hongmo and other generals had gathered in the Duduo camp, and there was even an extremely tall and strong officer from the Raksha Kingdom. All nervously waiting for something.

When it was ugly, Chitat lifted the curtain to enter the tent, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.

"How is it?" Dodo stood up abruptly.

Chitat's face was gloomy, and he cupped his hands and said, "Back to General, Daren Mountain and Tangshui River have been found to be haunted by southerners..."

 Thanks: Smile in November, the generous reward given to me by the lost goal!I am so grateful, thank you!
