Chapter 2312 How can the Gui scroll be so miserable? !
This is a huge blow to the Jianzhou Jurchens, and it is undoubtedly a huge stimulus and excitement to the Liaodong Army.
Led by Du Song and Zhao Menglin, all Liaodong soldiers suddenly shouted: "The imperial reinforcements have arrived, the imperial reinforcements have arrived!"
Regardless of whether the imperial reinforcements arrived, even if the Jianzhou Jurchens themselves caught fire and burned the hayyard, the reinforcements would have to invade the old camp and burn the hayyard.
The boost to morale caused by this stimulation was visible to the naked eye. The already exhausted and sluggish soldiers immediately began to get excited again, while the Jianzhou Jurchen side became obviously panicked. After Zhao Menglin led his team to charge, they had already stepped on the ground. The Zhenghuang Banner Jianzhou Army that entered the gap was pushed back out by the Liaodong Army, and fled back in embarrassment.
Ambeyangou observed the old camp from a high place and immediately realized that something was wrong with the situation.
It is absolutely impossible for the Zhou army to invade the old camp. If that is the case, it cannot be as simple as burning food and grass. Instead of doing that, it is better to stab oneself in the back. Then I am afraid that my side will be defeated faster. Why bother? What kind of trick is this?
Apart from the fire, there seems to be no other movement in the old camp now, and the shouts of killing cannot be heard at all. If thousands of people attacked and invaded the old camp, the defeated troops would have been defeated long ago, but they haven't seen it yet, which shows the situation. It's controllable, at least it didn't get defeated here.
"Great Khan, please be patient. I think the situation is not as bad as we thought before. It is also impossible for the Zhou army to invade our old camp. The Zhou army is still blocked from Yi Road to Pan." On the river line, even E Yidu and Fei Yingdong were in a disadvantageous situation, but it was easy to drag them across the river for two or three days. How could the Zhou army come over quietly? E Yidu, Fei Yingdong and others There is no news from Hu Erhan and the others,..."
In fact, without Anfeiyanggu’s explanation, Nurhaci also knew that the Zhou army could not fly from the south. Did he really think it would be possible to have wings? Daishan had received reinforcements and had already defended the Huabao Chong Fort, and was engaged in a dogfight with the Zhou army. There were only so many of the Zhou army, and they were all blocked from the defense line. How could they fly over?
"Anfeyangu, what do you think this is..." Nurhaci raised his chin towards the fire scene.
"If my guess is correct, it should be a sneak attack and arson by a small group of soldiers or scouts sent by Jun Song, in order to deliberately disturb the morale of our army and allow them to survive for a while longer. Humph, this is the end of the Guizhou donkey's skills... "Anfeyangu speaks Chinese very well and can even use idioms skillfully.
Nurhachi nodded with satisfaction. Anfeyangu's judgment was consistent with his. The purpose of setting a fire at this time was obvious. That was because the Liaodong Army in the city could not hold it back, so they used this method.
“Well, that’s what I think too. I ordered the yellow flags to follow, and ordered all the armies to pass on what I just said. Those who are the first to break the city can wash the city for a day first!”
Amfeyangu also nodded and signaled the surrounding soldiers to immediately pass on the promise of the Great Khan. He also said: "I guess these small groups of Juniper raiding troops will have other tricks to disturb us, but this cannot Changing our goals,…”
Nurhaci also nodded: "Now we just need to eliminate all interference and use all our strength to capture the Acropolis!"
Precisely because Nurhachi and Anfeiyangu insisted that these "harassments" were from small forces sent by Du Song to influence and delay the siege, when the Jianzhou Army resumed its ferocious offensive, it re-established its advantage and began to attack the city. They had the upper hand at the gap and were about to attack the city when they saw Mao Wenlong's main force attacking from behind, but they regarded it as an interference tactic and ignored it.
This decision has had serious consequences.
This even surprised Mao Wenlong.
When he led two thousand cavalry to rush into the two Jia La with blue flags who had just withdrawn from the battlefield and regrouped, waiting for the next round of attacks or even entering the city, he received almost no interference or hindrance.
They had already fought a fierce battle on the battlefield. The Blue Flag Army, which retreated and regrouped after suffering heavy losses, was immediately overwhelmed by such a new force from behind.
The sabers in the hands of the Liaodong cavalry are all forged steel knives from the Gyeonggi military-industrial complex. Their hardness and toughness are far superior to ordinary machetes, and their power can be fully displayed in this kind of charge.
In the dark night, the lights are psychedelic, the swords are dripping with light, and a tall horse rushes in from behind, with a thousand arms waving, blood flying.
It's just that the people who met the Liaodong Army knew the results just as well, and even fought harder, so they were beaten back. However, in terms of losses, the two Jia La 3,000 men still maintained the strength of more than 2,000 men, enough to come back again. An attack.
But unexpectedly, the next round of killings caused them to collapse immediately.
Being prepared for battle and waiting when you are most relaxed are two different concepts. Being caught off guard and attacking from behind, these two fatal factors directly caused the two thousand people of Xianglan Banner to flee in a mess to the left wing, which directly disrupted the main force. Prepare to move forward and launch a final fatal blow to the east gate, with two Jiala Zhenghuang flags.
Of course, Mao Wenlong would not give up such a God-given opportunity. Two thousand cavalry swept past and rushed towards the Zhenghuang Banner. Especially when he saw the Zhenghuang Banner, Mao Wenlong was even more angry. It's the enemies who are extremely jealous when they meet each other.
But the three thousand men of Zhenghuang Banner were obviously not as good as the troops of Xianglan Banner who had just been retreated. Although they were rushed by the retreat of Xianglan Banner and were a little confused for a while, they were preparing to play as a whole team after all, so they immediately turned to their thoughts. We must hold our ground.
But how could Mao Wenlong be willing to give the other party such a chance?
The first to break through, the specially forged steel knife in his hand was swung wildly. In an instant, two armored soldiers fell to the ground with their throats covered, and then two more armored soldiers stabbed but were blocked by the soldiers beside Mao Wenlong. Mao Wenlong slashed Huashan with all his strength. He split an armored soldier in half, and the armored soldier's shrill screams made everyone stand on their heads.
This fierce side attack, coupled with the retreating soldiers with the blue flag, completely disrupted the entire Zhenghuang flag camp. Although Jia La'e really tried desperately to adjust his formation to counterattack, the lights were swaying in the dark night and the sound of killing was loud. How can it be so easy to adjust the formation when the weather is dark?
More often than not, the soldiers flowed spontaneously in the direction led by the fleeers, and this was exactly what Mao Wenlong expected. Like a long flowing dragon that was slowly moved, these thousands of soldiers were driven by Mao Wenlong intentionally or unintentionally. After the formation was shaken, the human team could no longer stabilize the situation and had no choice but to retreat toward the left wing.
In fact, Mao Wenlong's surprise attack did not cause much damage to the Zhenghuang Banner except for defeating the 2,000-strong Blue Banner, which was only two to three hundred people at most. However, the effect it brought was extraordinary.
The two Jia La, who were disrupted by the Zhenghuang flag, were originally going to go into battle immediately to take over the men and horses with the red flag who had begun to retreat slowly to launch the final charge towards the east gate, but this was disrupted. This continuous round of battle was immediately interrupted.
The men with the red flag were repulsed and were steadily withdrawing. The men with the yellow flag were supposed to be on horseback, but the men with the yellow flag were in a mess and could not be connected, which directly led to a gap.
It was the emergence of this critical gap that allowed the defenders, who were already somewhat unable to hold on, to finally take a breather. They were even unable to pursue pursuit at all. They could only stabilize their positions and watch Mao Wenlong's men galloping ahead, charging and killing at will.
The consequences of the surprise attack by Mao Wenlong's cavalry were unexpected by everyone.
Nurhaci and Anfei Yangu both thought it was another round of harassment tactics. It was just thirty or fifty people and it would not affect the overall situation. However, the charge of two thousand strong cavalry, especially this kind of surprise attack launched from behind in the dark night, was so lethal and shocking. The impact of force is not the same as that of the day.
The collapse of the blue flag and the chaos of the yellow flag completely disrupted the entire rhythm of the attack on the Acropolis, and even stopped.
Jinipong on the city immediately reorganized his team and once again strengthened the defense at the gap, re-stabilizing the defense of the east gate that was originally hanging on a thread. This step can be said to have directly turned the crisis for Tieling Acropolis.
When Nurhaci and Anfeyangu finally realized something was wrong, they adjusted their ministries and began to encircle and suppress Mao Wenlong's tribe. Mao Wenlong had already completed the task of disrupting the situation and retreated, and the infantry who followed behind had already set up their formations and started firing rounds of firecrackers in an orderly manner. They gave a head-on blow to the Jianzhou Army that followed.
Mao Wenlong's nearly 10,000 gunners are not too many, only more than 2,000.
Because his time to serve Feng Ziying was too short, even if Feng Ziying wanted to support him, it would take time. Therefore, transferring all the muskets from the Denglai Navy to Mao Wenlong also required a training process.
The original fire gun army can be replaced immediately and put into use, but it will definitely be too late to replace all the original spear, sword and shield soldiers with fire gun soldiers, so this time he used all his elite troops to come, and still used spear swordsmen. There are mainly shield and archers, and there are only more than 2,000 fire gunmen.
But just this wave of fire from these two thousand musketry soldiers caught the Jianzhou Army who was chasing after them by surprise.
This was almost an ambush. The cavalry raided and harassed, and then quickly retreated. The pursuers came and immediately waited with firecrackers and bows and arrows. They beat the two armored warriors of Zhenghuang Banner who were following them and howled like wolves. The snow was in a mess. How could one be so miserable? Good calligraphy? !
