Chapter 53: Sichuan-Tibet situation 3 under the wall of Xiao

At this time, it is impossible for you to wear plate armor on your body at any time, but for Hao Yaoqi, the whole trip

The cavalrymen had a high-quality cotton armor on the meadow of northwestern Sichuan, because the herdsmen were wearing single clothes at this time, and the Chechen cavalry who were robbing were only wearing one piece of clothing.

It was in this case that the two sides met. Since there was a small fort near Hongyuan County in later generations, which was the residence of the local Tibetan leader, it was naturally occupied by Chechnya. When Chechnya gathered his troops to go out of the fort to fight, a whole cavalry brigade of Hao Yaoqi had already surrounded the fort.

As a Heshuote, Chechen will definitely not attack his tribe members after coming here. All the targets he plundered were Tibetans and Qiang people. The old method of plundering still killed adult males and plundered young women and children for themselves.

When Hao Yaoqi approached, Chechen had not had time to gather his cavalry together because he had taken 50 miles of strong cover. At present, there were only one thousand Heshuo special cavalry inside and around the small fort.

The small fortress naturally could not accommodate a thousand cavalry, so Hao Yaoqi immediately launched an attack on the cavalry around the fortress!

There is no suspense. Whether it is the Flying Dragon Cavalry or the Tiger Cavalry, after being equipped with cotton armor, it is still crushing against the Heshuote Cavalry, which only has a single-clothed clothing. What's more, the grasslands in Hainan and northwest Sichuan are very similar to those in the Nebuchu Grassland, and the cavalry of the Hanhai Army is completely derived from the Soren Cavalry tactics.

Not long after, the Heshuote cavalry outside the fort were either killed or fled in a hurry, and the surroundings of the fort were soon empty. However, even Hao Yaoqi was helpless even if he was brave, he had to set up a camp near the fort and wait for the arrival of the left brigade behind and the cavalry brigade led by Yang Tingyu.

One day later, Yang Tingyu arrived.

The cavalry brigade he personally led was a two-person cavalry with two cavalry, equipped with two hundred kilograms of cannons.

Yang Tingyu arrived in a strong windy day.

Due to the high altitude of the northwestern Sichuan grassland, the temperature will not be too high even in early summer. From time to time, there will be a gust of cold wind blowing from the heart of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Sometimes the wind is very strong, and Yang Tingyu arrived in such a strong wind.

A few years later, the former four young men of Ganliang - Yang Tingdong, Yang Tingyu, Yue Zhenbang, and Zhao Liangdong, all became independent figures and generals above the deputy commander of the army. In fact, the four people who were almost the same age were only thirty years old this year.

Like Zhao Liangdong, after experiencing the training of the Gray-Coat Guard and Hanhai Army, the former Guazhou horse thief Yang Tingyu had grown into one of the excellent cavalry generals of the Hanhai Army. Of course, at this time, although the Hanhai Army had strict military disciplines, complete disciplines, and timely rewards and punishments, those generals who left their names in history were still superior.

But the Great Xia seems to be testing Zhao Liangdong. Now Yang Tingdong, Yang Tingyu, and Yue Zhenbang have become the commander of the army. The most famous Zhao Liangdong is also a deputy commander of the army and brigade commander, and he still stays in Crimea. However, in the Polish war not long ago, Zhao Liangdong made many military achievements, and this time he should be promoted to the high position of commander of the army.

Yang Tingyu and Yue Zhenbang made too great contributions in the battle to take over Beijing, so they naturally became the commander of the army like Yang Tingdong very early.

Yang Tingyu, as his name is, is a typical sweet and cold person. He is tall and upright, and looks as gentle as jade. In fact, the cold light exposed from time to time shows his tough side. He is also born and never stopped at night. He is a horse thief and a gray guard. He will never be a gentle as jade.

As mentioned before, during the last battle with Gushi Khan in Gushi Khan near Shazhou, the Kingdom of Daxia captured many prisoners, including several sons of Gushi Khan. In the end, the two sides reached a conclusion that the Khalkha (the outer Khalkha mainly belonged to Ketu Khan), Tumote (moved to Tumote on the Qinghai grassland very early), Ordos (like Tumote), and Chahar (who followed Hudun Rabbit) all moved to the grasslands near Gansu on the eastern foot of the Qilian Mountains.

All four tribes joined the Bogra tribe, with An Tong, dowry of the former imperial concubine Aruna, as the chief. Finally, 6,000 students who graduated from Wuyuan Cavalry School were transferred from these four tribes, plus the Han cavalry, a new legion was formed, and An Tong was appointed as the commander of the legion.

An Tong was in charge of the Hexi Corridor, but Yang Tingyu went to Hezhou early in the morning to wait for the opportunity. Because before leaving for Ukraine, Nikan once told him, "Sichuan and Qinghai are expected to have changed recently, so we should monitor closely and act on the camera."

One of the sources of Nikan's judgment was the secret report of the Gray-Clothed Guard, and the other was the grasp of the general trend, because Yang Zhan in western Sichuan had the strongest military force at this time, but he was a little proud of his contributions. The Ming court sent Li Qiande, Yuan Tao and Wu Dading to western Sichuan like in history.

As for Handu's belief in the Red Cult and harboring the children of the former Red Cult chief Dunyue Dorji, he didn't know.

"boom!!!"

The cannon began to roar and aimed directly at the wooden door of the small fort.

In places like this, there are no hard big woods to build wooden doors for the toasts. They are just ordinary pine and fir trees. Therefore, two hours later, the wooden door about ten centimeters thick fell down.

However, Chechnya in the fort also came out at this time!

He also has three hundred cavalry under his command, all of whom are warriors with cowhide armor!

However, when this situation comes, even the most powerful warriors will return in disgrace under the attack of the Daxia Kingdom's standards, ruthlessness, orderly and uniform cavalry.

Chechen is no exception, not to mention that he only has 300 cavalry under his command, but in these two hours of bombardment, all the cavalry under Chechen within a radius of dozens of miles near the small fort came back. This was also when the gate of the fort collapsed, he did not defend the danger, but reached a consensus with the cavalry that continued to gather outside the fort.

Attack inside and outside, defeat Han Hai Army!

As the commander of the legion, Yang Tingyu naturally would not take action himself now. He set up his camp on a small hill with a flat mountain top, leaving only a thousand cavalry. The remaining two thousand cavalry were led by Zuo Yi, the commander of another cavalry brigade, and divided into four groups to face the Heshuo special cavalry that were constantly gathering from all over the place.

And Zuo Yi himself took Qianqi to face Chechnya!

Here we need to mention Zuo Yi. In the late Ming Dynasty, there were actually quite a few powerful generals, mainly from Shaanxi and Liaodong. The ones from Shaanxi were named Qin Army, led by Niu Chenghu, Zuo Guangxian and Zheng Jiadong. The most brave one was naturally Zuo Guangxian.

In the past, when Li Zicheng attacked Sichuan, he almost broke through all prefectures and counties except Chengdu. However, he ran away under the threat of the Ming army gathering around him. After failing to buy a horse in Hezhou, he broke into Hanzhong directly, but was defeated by Zuo Guang, who was guarding Hanzhong at that time.

(It is said that Sichuan was in decline in Dingkou in the late Ming Dynasty, either because of Zhang Xianzhong or because of the Qing army. In fact, according to the author's research, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Qing army, Ming army, and Yao Huang Shisanjia are all to blame. Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, the Qing army's disaster to western Sichuan were the main cause, while Yao Huang Shisanjia, the Ming army's disaster to eastern Sichuan was the main cause)

In that battle, Zuo Guangxian had only 5,000 subordinates, while Li Zicheng still had tens of thousands of people. However, in this battle, Li Zicheng had only 2,000 left. In the end, he could only rush into the mountains to avoid Zuo Guangxian's attack.

In Zuo Guangxian's team, his son Zuo Yi was "always a pioneer", and his bravery was definitely not inferior to his father. Sure enough, after the father and son surrendered to Daxia in Shanhaiguan, Zuo Guangxian gradually showed signs of retreating to the second line, but Zuo Yi, who was thirty, gradually emerged.

Sure enough, although the three hundred Chechen cavalry were from top to bottom, the Left Armour attacked from bottom to bottom. Under the protection of muskets, after resisting the initial desperate attack from Chechen, the Left Armour cavalry gradually surrounded the Chechen cavalry.

In the mountain grassland, we cannot use the penetration tactics that Hanhai Army is used for, but we need to fight one-on-one. Of course, according to Caodian, the cavalry of Hanhai Army is not a one-on-one fight, but still cooperates. However, when the brave Zuo Yi saw Chechnya wearing bright armor in front of him, he knew that this person was a big man, so he inserted his short gun back to his waist, with one hand and one hand saber, and he rushed in without hesitation!

In the distance, in addition to the left cavalry, Hao Yaoqi's cavalry was divided into several groups farther away, but they did not join the battle, but instead monitored the battlefield in various places.

"Tingyu and Heshuote cavalry are all in Tibet. Qinghai is mainly tribal cavalry, which is not worth worrying. There are hundreds of Tibetan tribes of all sizes here. Each Tibetan tribe is almost the role of a chief and a living Buddha. They are not always dealt with, and it is not worth worrying. Therefore, as long as there are many forces to kill and kill the enemy in a battle, Qinghai will be almost pacified."

"As for the snowy areas, only Yushu, Chamdo, Lhasa, Shigatse, Ali and other places can station troops, grazing, and farming, and it is unlikely that there will be too many troops. If the Hoshuot Khanate wants to fight our army, it will definitely fight to the death. It will never come in endlessly with oil-adding tactics, or rely on the pass, the castle will resist one after another, consuming our army."

"But now they all know that our army has strong firepower. In the past, fortresses that were not easy to conquer in the Han army and the Tang army seemed to be unworthy of the Nebuchu bronze cannon. Therefore, the decisive battle was what they thought, especially in the hinterland of Tibet, which was their only chance."

"After Da Yan took office, except for Tibet, the brothers from Qinghai basically did not listen to him. If he wanted to subdue them, he would definitely take action against one. It is not easy to travel to the snow area. If Da Yan was dispatched, he would definitely lead the team himself!"

Yang Tingyu in the distance recalled what Nikan said to him before leaving the land, and he was also thinking: "Pengsuke's 10,000 elite cavalry are in front and Chechnya's 5,000 tribal cavalry are in the back. Such an arrangement is definitely not enough to suppress his brothers, but where is Dayan's main force?"

This is also the main reason why he left the main attack and Hao Yaoqi in the distance attacked. The grasslands in northwest Sichuan are crisscrossing and endless, and there may be heavy troops everywhere. Don't be careless.

On the high platform in the camp, Yang Tingyu looked around with a telescope. Unfortunately, because there were undulating mountains everywhere, it was not easy to find some clues there.

When he was about to put down his telescope, he flew behind him, in the direction he came.

Yang Tingyu felt a stern.
