Chapter 438 Liaodong (21)

 "The Grand Marshal, in front of him is the Manchu Xingjing Hetuara, which is built on the south bank of Suzi River. The Suzi River is a tributary of the Hun River. There are Maerdun, Gule, and Jiefan Sanzhai in Hebei, and Sarhu in Hedong is Sarhu." Tong Yangjia was a native of Liao and introduced the terrain of the Hetuara area to Yang Huai in endlessly.

When Yang Huai heard the two place names of Sarhu and Hunhe, he felt ache. It was these two major battles that broke the backbone of the Ming Dynasty!

He respected Liu Jing the most in his life and asked: "Where did General Liu Jing die in his battle?"

Liu Jing was the most powerful general of the Wanli Dynasty. The iron knife he used weighed more than 120 kilograms (some say more than 80 kilograms), and immediately rotated like a flying car. He was known as "Liu Dadao". He Ping Myanmar, North Korea, Bozhou, and Luo Xiong, and had great military achievements.

Tong Yangjia said: "In the Battle of Sarhu, General Liu Shi, who did not know that Du Song had been defeated, went alone into three hundred miles, and more than 2,000 Eastern Army soldiers died in Abudaligang."

When he heard the hero died heroically, Yang Huai couldn't help but say angrily: "Now the Japanese general vows to avenge the loyal and martyrs of the Ming Dynasty who died in Sarhu!"

"Master, I wrote a song "Qinyuanchun" to commemorate the loyal soul of Sarhu. I would like to sing it to all the masters," said Kuang Lu, the governor of Liaodong and famous scholar.

"Okay, Mr. Kuang sings it."

"Qinyuanchun Sarhu"

The lonely hill is filled with wolf smoke, the sad song of Thrall, the fierce general dreams are broken.

Hope that the army is pacified by the north, loyal soul,

The whimpering and turbulent on the banks of the Hun River.

This hatred is endless, the heroic spirit is immortal,

The Hu Chief likes it.

The wind is coming, and a hundred thousand powerful troops are rising, and war is in full swing.

If you are infatuated, you can sleep forever, and see us clean up the old rivers and mountains.

There are countless tigers, throwing whips and breaking the flow,

Why is it difficult to eliminate the Tartars?

Victory and defeat come from time to time, people's hearts are in Han,

Thousands of horses and thousands of troops seek a battle.

Heaven moves hard, laugh at the kindness of the people of kindness, and bloodbathing of Helan.

Kuang Lu sang this song "Qinyuanchun·Sarhu". He was a famous scholar and was proficient in music. This song was sung up and down and passionate. After listening to it, all the generals were excited and jumped on horseback and whipped, all of whom wanted to conquer Xingjing Hetuala, who was the Qing enemy, and to wipe out the shame of Sarhu.

??

Hetuala has two floors inside and outside, with nine miles around the outer city and four miles around the inner city. Nurhaci and his relatives lived in the inner city, while the outer city was divided into districts by blacksmiths, bow craftsmen, sergeants and other districts.

Ezhen Murima of Qinggushan, Bahana led 10,000 Eight Banners, and 5,000 remnants of Li Sizhong who fled back to guard the city.

"Murima Ezhen, this Ming army is very cunning. He did not camp in Zaotu Mountain, but instead came directly to me, Hetuala. What should we do?" Bahana asked the main general Murima who guarded the city. Although both Gushan Ezhen, Murima had a deep background and was the younger brother of the head coach Ao Bai and a popular person in the eyes of Emperor Shunzhi, so Bahana listened to Murima in everything.

Murima bit her teeth, "There is nothing to say, defend to the death and persevere until the army counterattacks!"

"Yeah!"

War is really ever-changing and there are no rules. According to common sense, the Ming army should seize the favorable terrain before siegeing the city, and set up the camp on the Zaotu Mountain southwest of Hetuala. Unexpectedly, after Yang Huai's tribe defeated Li Sizhong's tribe, his morale was strong. He did not seize Zaotu Mountain, but directly camped in the south of the city to attack the city. This made Ao Bai, who was ambushing the Zaotu Mountain, hit cotton with one punch, and had nowhere to use it.

However, Ao Bai was a long-time general after all. In addition to setting up 30,000 ambushers on Zaotu Mountain, he also ordered Angbang Zhangjing Ye Shuke to lead 5,000 troops in the reeds on the banks of the Suzi River; and ordered Angbang Zhangjing Shaer Huda to lead 5,000 troops in the Yawei Pass on the southwest Great Wall of Jianzhou.

The Crow Falcon Pass is a famous dangerous pass. The pass is as dangerous as the old pike in the Raptor Mountain. It is divided into three roads. It is now called the Three Road Pass, which is the border between Liaodong and Jianzhou.

"Duke, what can you do if the Ming army has not entered our army's ambush circle?"

Ao Bai asked Pengchun a little anxiously.

"The general is a soldier, and how can he be as good as he wishes? Although the Ming army had not set up camp at Zaotu Mountain, he did not send a scout to the mountain to check it out. It can be seen that he did not notice anything wrong. The general might as well wait. When the Ming army was exhausted from the city, he suddenly attacked him from the mountain and would win!"

"good!"

??

The Ming army began to attack the city, and the city attacked strangely. It only attacked the South Gate, leaving the three gates of the East, North and West Gate for the Qing army to flee.

The main reason was that the Ming army went north from Yizhou and went deep into the hinterland of Jianzhou. Jianzhou was the foundation of the Qing army. Most of the local people were bannermen, so it was difficult for the Ming army to obtain supplies from the local area. There were only more than two months of military ration left in the army, so they had to quickly break the city and deliberately attack the South Gate and leave three gates for the enemy to escape.

The two sides first launched a bombardment, and then the Ming army's archers and gunmen were under the cover of the chariots, approaching and shooting the defenders to cover the infantry to climb the city.

Yuan Doupao, Li Shifang, and Li Huan led more than 20,000 Kuomintang troops, pushed the ladder truck and bravely attacked the city.

Murima, Bahana, and Li Sizhong fought to the death.

The fierce siege battle took two hours, and the bodies piled up like mountains and blood stained the city walls red.

??

Ao Bai, who was lying in the stove mountain, felt that the time was almost over and issued a general order to "the whole army attacked".

"Da da da da!"

Thirty thousand iron cavalry came from the Zaotu Mountain like a storm. Ebilong, Wohe, Yisan'a, Pengchun, Zhong Nai, Zuzehong and other generals led the way and rushed forward.

"Kill and kill!"

Angbang Zhang Jing Ye Shuke led 5,000 troops and horses to break out from the reeds on the banks of the Suzi River.

"According to this, kill the enemy!"

Murima roared wildly, and three Gushan Ezhen, Gushan Ezhen, led their troops out of Hetuara City.

Yang Huai was shocked and sweated coldly. He knew that it was not good, but he followed Emperor Guangwu for many years and knew that he could not be in chaos at this time. If the commander was in chaos, the entire army would be wiped out.

He calmly ordered: "Array!"

Following the military order, the Ming army commander was in front of the spearman, the gunman and the archer were in the center, and the sword and shield were placed behind the hand, and the array began.

Fortunately, Zaotu Mountain is still a distance from Hetuala, and the Ming army was all elite soldiers who came out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, and quickly formed a formation. The Chao army was in chaos, and only the guard commander Li Shifang, who did not set up the formation of the 4,000 Shen Liu troops.

When Liaodong Governor Tong Yangjia saw that the situation was not good, he rushed to Yang Huai's front, "Master, matters are urgent! You should cut off your tail and seek survival!"

"Broken tail to survive? How to break this tail?" Yang Huai asked.

"Master General, the combat power of the Korean army is too weak and has not yet formed a formation. It is better to abandon the Korean army and leave. The main force of our army will be able to protect it.

Yang Huai looked over the Chao army and saw that there were only a few thousand Chao army, which had arranged a crooked array, most of which were still in a mess, and even the Chao army was still sieging the city.

He knew that things should not be done. Time was tight, and he had fought too many wars, and his heart had long become harder than a stone.

"Retreat", Yang Huai shouted a military order.

"Woo~Woo~Woo~Woo~"

The horn of retreat blew up, and the Ming army lined up its military formations, fought and retreated, and retreated to Wula Mountain City. Li Shifang, Shen Liu and other Korean generals who had arranged their formations followed behind.

Yuan Doupao and Li Huan heard the horn of retreat, and did not care about arraying, leading more than 20,000 Korean troops to follow the back and run wildly.
