Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 907 Yangquan, Death Battle 8
Another Qing army from Jiala arrived.

Yang Menglong's face was as dark as water, and he ordered in a low voice: "Lieutenant General Long, you choose 2000 troops, bring more crossbows and grenades, and rush out of the city to meet with General He. You can't let them be eaten by the slaves!"

Standing at the top of the city, you can clearly see that He Sui's headquarters has been surrounded by the Qing army, and sharp arrows are shooting from all directions like slanting rain. Those Qing soldiers who wrapped themselves in thick iron armor like an iron tower The infantry rushed forward with long soldiers in their hands, and wherever they rushed, there was a bloody alley. He Sui commanded a group of servants to fight to the death, struggling to support them, and Qi Polu, Feng Lei and other troops were also desperately supporting them, but they couldn't resist , really can't resist, the opponent is too strong!

When mentioning the Qing army, everyone's first reaction may be that they boasted that they are invincible in riding and shooting, but this is not the case at all.For a long time, heavy cavalry and heavy infantry were the backbone of the Qing army and the basis for them to defeat the Ming army.The Qing army's heavy infantry, represented by Sauron's dead soldiers and white armored soldiers, is simply a nightmare for the Ming army. They wear heavy armor that can't be pierced by firecrackers, and hold heavy long soldiers. Attacking them desperately did not move, while their long soldiers were flying with blood and flesh, and I don't know how many elite soldiers were smashed into pieces by them like this!And now it is the infantry of the Qing army who are fighting against the Ming army. 150 heavy infantry form an unusually sharp knife, and hundreds of light infantry in leather armor and cotton armor follow up. Like rain, the infantry of the Ming army who charged under the spears of the tiger guns fell down.He Sui could crush Yang Dong's rebel army in one fell swoop and stab Yang Dong into a hornet's nest, but he just couldn't resist the less than a thousand Qing infantry!
They are strong, really strong!
What was even more terrible was that the sound of hooves shook the sky, and another Jiala from the Qing army arrived, but the main force of the Tianxiong army was nowhere to be seen...

The situation was critical, so Yang Menglong could only grit his teeth and order a lieutenant to lead two thousand infantry out of the city again to support He Sui.For this reason, the battle has become a refueling tactic that military strategists are extremely afraid of, but he has no choice. From the moment Hong Niangzi was surrounded, it was doomed that the Battle of Yangquan would turn into a bad battle. Everyone can only compare There are no tricks to consume human life.He knew that Hong Niangzi, Zaji Chongweng, and He Sui had taken out all the elites in Yangquan City in three attacks, leaving behind soldiers who had never seen blood at all and were poorly trained. On the battlefield, even one out of ten might not be able to come back alive, but...does he have a choice?The ghost knows when the reinforcements will come up, so we can only fight!

Lieutenant Long was also unambiguous, promised, and brought 2000 troops, each with a strong crossbow, to drive out of the city, and braved the rain of arrows to approach He Sui. The opponent turned his back on his back and rushed up to stab with a spear or slash with a horizontal knife.Their combat effectiveness is indeed relatively poor. The accuracy of the crossbow shooting is not 01:30 worse than the one led by He Sui. Some people even fired a grenade but did not throw it out because they were too nervous. The hand exploded, and he and the people around him fell into a pool of blood.However, they are still advancing bravely amid the beating of the drums, and that is enough!

Yang Menglong had no expression on his face, almost indifferently as he watched Vice General Long leading this third-rate army forward bravely and suffering heavy casualties. He was so cold, as if the lives and deaths of so many people had nothing to do with him.However, his lips were bleeding from biting them!

Time, time!
If there was more time, when the Sichuan Army and the Heluo New Army arrived, would he still need to send these third-rate troops out to die!
They knew that they would die if they killed them, but they obeyed his order without hesitation and rushed out, turning into piles of corpses right in front of his eyes!
This battle cannot be lost!No matter what, you can't lose!
He can't afford to lose, he bears the unconditional trust and loyalty of too many people, he really can't afford to lose!
The commander of the warehouse garrison of the Tianxiong Army stepped forward and said, "Master Hou, the enemy army is too strong, I'm afraid Vice General Long won't be able to kill him!"

Yang Menglong said: "He must kill him, otherwise he will die on the battlefield!"

The junior officer said: "Let my subordinates lead these one hundred soldiers to rush out and open the way with volleys of muskets. Maybe we can open a hole."

Yang Menglong glanced at him: "Rush out? Don't need to guard the warehouse?"

The little officer smiled: "Isn't there still Lord Hou?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a group of Mongolian cavalry rushing out obliquely, copying Lieutenant Long's back all at once, causing Lieutenant Long to be attacked from the back.Lieutenant Long roared: "Don't worry about the back, hit forward! Hit forward!" Before he finished speaking, three heavy arrows shot through the air, two pierced through the armor and entered the chest, and one hit the neck.The chief general was hit by an arrow, and the two thousand Ming soldiers were taken aback. They all looked at him. Deputy Long's face was distorted, and he stretched out his hand to hold the sharp arrow that almost pierced his neck and pulled it out forcefully. He brought out a bloody arrow and roared hoarsely: " Damn it, charge!" The knife rushed forward, blood spurted out from the wound, leaving a trail of blood, and after rushing for more than ten steps, he collapsed.His subordinates were all red-eyed, and rushed forward with almost crazy roars, madly attacking every enemy within their reach, even if the body was split by a big axe, they would slash each other with a knife!

Yang Menglong punched heavily on the battlements.How many is it?This is the first lieutenant general who died in front of him?Fourth or fifth?Damn it, how many lieutenants are there in Yangquan City!He turned his head and said to the small officer: "Go, take 1000 people and kill them. If you are dead, I will fill them in!"

The little officer saluted him and said, "Master Hou, even if we are all dead, don't come out, otherwise we will die in vain!" Kill out and rush to the battlefield.

Obai could see clearly, and his face was also expressionless, but he held the telescope so loudly that it made a crackling sound.

Damn it, how many troops are there in Yangquan City? They defeated one and another came, and they surrounded one and another came again, it seems endless!
Anger is helpless.Daming...is too big. It has rich land in more than a dozen provinces, a population of over 200 million, tens of millions of young and strong, and almost endless grain, livestock, and steel. The Qing Dynasty even counts the Han people as coats. In fact, there are only 300 million people, and if you count the Mongols, there will be 10,000 million people, right?As long as one is united, the Ming can easily recruit tens of thousands, 20+ or ​​even hundreds of thousands of troops, but the Qing cannot. Even if the Qing squeezes out all the war potential, it can only gather 15 troops at most... This is still An ideal number is actually impossible. Before this war, there was a general mobilization in Manchuria. 50-year-old children and 13-year-olds were all mobilized, and only 7000 people were put together!I don't know how Huang Taiji felt when facing Daming, anyway, at this moment, Oboi felt a powerless feeling in his heart as if a hungry wolf met an elephant.If they don't eat this piece of fat, they will starve to death, and this piece of fat is so big that they can be trampled flat with just one foot!

Hai Du rushed over with a crossbow arrow stuck on his right shoulder, covered in blood, and shouted at Obai: "Obai, another group of Ming troops came out, what should I do?"

Aobai said in a low voice, "Destroy them!"

Hai Du was extremely angry: "Destroy them? Destroying them is useless! Even if we destroy them, that demon will immediately send out another team to fight with us until we are all exhausted. Some of his men are men, some are willing As long as he obeys his orders to fight to the death and exchange blood and life for fame, as long as his head has not been cut off, he will not lose, and it is impossible to lose!" He raised his horsewhip and pointed behind him, his eyes almost burst into tears. Mars came out: "I have five thousands of troops, and now only half of them are left. Two of the five thousand commanders died and one was seriously injured. Since Yexian Taishi's generation, we Mongols have not fought. There has never been a battle with such a heavy loss! Tell me, how many people must die to take this damned city? How many people must be filled in to cut down that battle flag? Tell me!"

Aobai stared at Haidu with gloomy eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Prince Rui is sending new troops here continuously, Yang Menglong won't be able to last long! He has almost no soldiers on hand! Annihilate the Ming army who went out of the city to fight, Smash the tortoise shell of Yangquan, cut off his head, and we will win!"

Hai Du looked at him coldly, and asked aggressively, "Then what? After capturing Yangquan, our men are almost dead. What can we do to resist the continuous reinforcements from the Ming army!"

Obai said: "We have no ability to resist the reinforcements of the Ming army. We haven't had it from the beginning! Even...after the whole country is conquered, we may not be able to defeat the Heluo Xin army and Tianxiong army! But we can take their souls Destroy! Lu Xiangsheng is doomed to die in Liaodong, he is finished, and now Yang Menglong is standing in front of us alone, this is an opportunity given by God, we must kill him at all costs, this is the only chance! Haidu, Obey my order, lead your troops to attack from the left flank, and annihilate the infantry of the Ming army who have left the city, and don't force me to do anything to you!"

Haidu's forehead turned blue and he almost broke his teeth. He said angrily: "I think you are crazy if you want to make meritorious service! I can't accompany you crazy. These five thousand-man troops are the hope of my tribe. I must keep them." ! Let Yangquan City go to hell, let’s go back to the prairie————”

A cold light flashed past, Haidu's roar stopped abruptly, the head whirled and flew a foot away, the body without the head was still riding on the horse, but the skin on the neck shrank suddenly , a column of blood spurted into the sky.

The surrounding Mongolian soldiers were all stunned.

Aobai raised the epee with blood on its blade and pointed towards the gate of the city, and said to the two commanders who were able to ride horses: "Kill the infantry of the Ming army who went out of the city to fight, I don't want to repeat it again. !"

The two commanders looked at each other, sighed resignedly, and rushed towards the Ming army from their respective command posts.

What greeted them was popping bean-like gunshots and grenades hitting their heads and faces.

That Jiala who finally broke through the blockade of the Tianxiong Army and Oboi joined him. Jiala's forehead was really Turge, an old acquaintance of Oboi. When they met, they asked, "How is the situation now?"

Obai looked stern, and said: "It's terrible! Minggou is too tenacious, and there are so many troops, no matter how hard you fight, there is no way to defeat them, let alone get close to Yangquan City!"

Turg wanted to look at the battlefield through Oboi's binoculars. As Oboi said, the Ming army had a large number of troops, and they all risked their lives to fight. It was too difficult for the Qing army to defeat them in a short time.

Obai explained to Turge the situation on the battlefield and the strength of several Ming armies, and only after Turge had a clear idea did he ask, "How is Prince Rui going?"

Turg shook his head and said: "It's not very good. Almost at the same time as our main force arrived, the main force of Tianxiong Army also arrived. The two sides fought without saying a word, and there was no way to suppress the other side. Go back to the mountain pass...Oboi, Prince Rui has given you full authority to take down Yangquan at all costs and cut off that person's head!"

Obai said: "Of course I know that, even if I hit my head on it, I will smash Yangquan City to pieces!"

Before the words fell, the swan whistle sounded again, the sound of hooves shook the sky, the snow powder flew up, and a black wave surged from a distance.Obai raised his binoculars and saw more than a thousand cavalry cavalry pouring down from the hills not far away. They were dressed in black and armored and black horses, as far as the eye could see. A black battle flag was particularly conspicuous among the ice and snow. As the horse galloped, a terrifying aura of approaching storm and dark clouds filled the air, and even the sky seemed to darken a bit!
Heluo New Army!

They're here!
