Chapter 321 Pocket Array
A small black dot suddenly appeared in Wang Pu's field of vision. As the distance approached, Wang Pu could already see that it was a small boat, which was left by the navy on the coast for messaging. If Jiannu attacked, Qu Shizi would send someone to the beach to communicate, and then the small boat guarding the beach brought the news to the sea.
The eight oarsmen on the boat waved their oars like flying, and the boat rushed towards the navy fleet moored on the sea like arrows.
In less than a meal, the boat rowed to Wang Pu's boat. A navy soldier had already put down the soft ladder and took the message soldier on the boat to the big ship. The message soldier rushed to Wang Pu, saluted the military salute, and said loudly: "Prince, Lord Qu, please give me, more than 10,000 Jiannu cavalry are approaching Songshan!"
"Okay." Wang Pu said excitedly, "Jiannu has taken the bait!"
Li Chengdong, Huang Degong, Shi Lang and other generals standing behind Wang Pu also showed excitement. It is worthwhile that they waited for so many days on the sea, and Jiannu finally took the bait.
Wang Pu turned around suddenly and shouted loudly: "Rise the anchor... Let's go!"
"yes!"
The generals responded with a loud promise, and the navy warships anchored on the sea raised their anchors one after another and sailed towards the mouth of the Daling River dozens of miles away.
On the banks of the Daling River.
Duoduo suddenly pulled his horse back, and the more than 10,000 cavalry of Zhengbai Banner were like rolling iron streams, rushing forward through two floating bridges built on the Daling River. These two floating bridges were built before Dorgon led the Eight Banners army to the pass the pass the year before. Now the floating bridge is still there, but the Eight Banners army entering the pass has been destroyed.
Thinking of this, Duoduo couldn't help but feel sad.
But soon, the sadness in Duoduo's eyes was replaced by deep hatred. Although the Eight Banners Army that entered the pass was only more than 10,000 cavalry left by Zhengbai Banners, even if there were only more than 10,000 cavalry left, it would be more than enough to deal with the Nanming barbarians gathered in the ruins of Songshan City.
The news came back like a horse exploring the flowing water. From Shanhaiguan to Songshan, the prosperous Liaoxi Corridor has now become a barren land. There are only more than 10,000 Ming cavalry gathered in the ruins of Songshan City in the entire Liaoxi Corridor. In addition, even a mouse cannot be found.
Duoduo finally felt relieved and led more than 10,000 cavalry toward Songshan.
Speaking of which, Duoduo is actually very cautious and is vigilant enough to the Central Army. But after all, he is not a time traveler. No matter how he is outstanding, he cannot surpass the shackles of this era. In Duoduo's mind, there is no concept of water and land collaborative combat beyond the era, so his attention is all on land.
At noon, the Jiannu army advanced all the way outside Songshan City.
The security team stationed in the ruins of Songshan was indeed the North Zhi security team. The group of cowboys from the north were confused. However, what puzzled Duoduo was that the more than 10,000 cowboys from the north had not been retreated into the ruins of Songshan City to defend. At least 10,000 people got off the horse and lined up outside the ruins, setting up their stance to fight against Jiannu.
"Are these Nanming barbarians crazy?" Suksaha, behind Duoduo, said in a dismay, "They are not the Central Army, and they also want to block the iron hooves and sabers of our Eight Banners Iron Cavalry?"
Duoduo frowned and said nothing, and he couldn't understand the intentions of these northern cowboys.
"Don't worry," Suna said loudly, "These Nanming barbarians are seeking death by themselves, so we can help them."
"Um." Duoduo nodded and shouted, "Suksaha."
Suksaha rushed forward and responded: "The slave is here."
Duoduo said: "Take two Niulu's iron cavalry up and test it first."
"twitter."
Suksaha agreed and lit up two Niulu 600 Iron Cavalry to leave the formation.
With Suksaha's order, the six hundred cavalry began to slowly move forward, and then gradually spread toward the two wings. Finally, it gathered into a surging torrent, crushing towards the northern cowboys lined upside down outside the ruins of Songshan. Most of the northern cowboys were the first to see the charge of the Jiannu cavalry, and they couldn't help but feel trembling and their legs were trembling.
Because they were defeated repeatedly in the confrontation with the Ming Central Army, the Jiannu at this time was no longer comparable to the Jiannu at that time. However, when they faced enemies outside the Ming Central Army, they were still able to maintain a strong psychological advantage. Therefore, the charge of these 500 cavalry seemed majestic, completely overwhelming the northern cowboys arranged outside the ruins of Songshan in terms of momentum.
Just as Suksaha's five hundred cavalry was about to rush to the northern cowboy formation, a sudden change occurred!
Accompanied by a loud trumpet sound, the northern cowboys lined up outside the ruins of Songshan bent down. When they stood up again, there was something else in their hands. Suddenly, a sharp reflection appeared from the northern cowboy array, confusing the eyes of Suksaha and the five hundred Jiannu Iron Cavalry.
Duoduo, who was watching the battle in the distance, was suddenly shocked, this is...
"Damn it!" Suna, behind Duoduo, moaned in pain, "Murder! This is clearly a musket with a bayonet! Damn it, these cunning Nanming barbarians must be disguised by the Ming Central Army. Master, have been fooled, we have been fooled, have been fooled by the Nanming barbarians!"
"Boom boom boom..."
As Suna finished speaking, a dazzling red light had already bloomed in front of the northern cowboy formation. With the deafening gunshots, the Jiannu Iron Cavalry swept forward and fell down like a cut weed. Suksaha, who was racing in front, also fell from the horse's back. A scorching bullet shot in from his left eye, taking away his fresh life.
"No……"
Suna in the distance wailed in pain.
"Retreat!" Duoduo also howled like a wounded beast, "The whole army retreated!"
Jiannu, who were already in his heart, turned around and retreated one after another. When they saw the northern cowboys pick up the musket, they completely lost their fighting spirit. It was obvious that Jiannu had already regarded the northern cowboys opposite as the Ming Central Army pretending to be pigs and eating tigers. The continuous setbacks had already made Jiannu lose the courage and determination to resist the Ming Central Army.
What is a frightened bird?
This is the frightened bird. At this moment, Jiannu just wants to escape and escape from the battlefield as soon as possible!
At the ruined Songshan city, Qu Shizi looked excited and said to the messenger beside him: "Send the order, the whole army pursues!"
When it was almost dark, Duoduo finally fled to the banks of the Daling River with Jiannu's Iron Cavalry.
What made Duoduo and all Jiannu feel desperate was that the two floating bridges originally built on the Daling River had been demolished, and there were more than a dozen Ming Navy warships cruising on the wide Daling River. Dozens of Folang machine cannons poked out from the cabin hole, and the black muzzle had already pointed at the Jiannu Iron Cavalry on the banks of the Daling River.
A deafening roar sounded, and dozens of rolling smoke immediately rose from the Jiannu formation. The Jiannu, covered by the smoke, suddenly turned over and over, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere. The Jiannu, who had already been squeezed into a group, was even more messy. Before Duoduo's orders, the Jiannu cavalry turned their horses and fled north along the Daling River.
This is completely driven by instinct, because there are Daling River and the Ming Navy blocking the way in front, and the Ming Central Army chased after it. To the south is the sea and a dead end. These three directions cannot be reached, and there is a glimmer of hope only when going north!
Only Duoduo knew that things were not that simple! The Ming Central Army and the Ming Navy appeared one after another, what does this mean? This shows that Wang Pu may have also come to Liaodong. With Wang Pu's cunning and skillful use of military force, could he leave such a big gap? No, this is absolutely impossible. With Wang Pu's use of military force, this must be a pocket formation!
Unfortunately, the fleeing Jiannu was completely out of control, and Duoduo could no longer stop them.
Duoduo's worries quickly turned into a terrible reality, and Jiannu really fell into the Ming army's pocket formation.
The Jiannu rebellion army fled north for more than ten miles and encountered the blockade of the Ming Central Army. This time it was the real Central Army, equipped with a breech gun!
Whether in terms of the rate of fire, range or accuracy, the breech gun is far better than the early breech guns. Five thousand musketeers line up intensive shooting formations, and the howling bullets woven into an intransitory death zone. Jiannu, who unfortunately stepped into it, screamed and fell down...
The defeated Jiannu soldiers who fled were like waves hitting a reef and swept back. Then, driven by the Ming Central Army, the northern cowboys and the Ming navy, fled south in a panic and fled south, and were eventually driven to the vast sea. The scene of the Battle of Songshan was staged again on the western coast of Liao, but this time the one who was quickly drowned in the sea was replaced by Jiannu.
Jiannu's performance was not much better than that of the Ming border army back then.
In this battle, the more than 10,000 Zhengbai Banner cavalry who went to war with Duoduo were destroyed. About 200 cavalry were killed at the muzzle of cowboys in the north, and more than 100 cavalry were killed under the artillery fire of the Ming Navy. About 500 cavalry were killed at the muzzle of the Central Army. The remaining more than 10,000 cavalry were either trampled on each other, or were driven into the sea and drowned, or became prisoners of the Ming army.
At noon the next day, the northern cowboys finally finished cleaning the battlefield.
Qu Shizi entered Wang Pu's tent excitedly, held his fists and bowed, "Sir, please see the prince."
Wang Pu waved his hand and smiled and said, "Mr. Qu, the battlefield has been cleaned?"
"It's finished cleaning." Qu Shizi rubbed his hands and said excitedly, "Our army won a great victory in the Battle of Songshan-Daling River. He wiped out more than 12,000 Jiannu cavalry at the cost of less than ten casualties, and captured more than 2,000 alive. I wondered how the prince should deal with these more than 2,000 Jiannu prisoners?"
A trace of evil spirit rose in Wang Pu's eyes and said in a deep voice: "Every Jiannu's hands are covered with the blood of our Han people. It's a pity to die. Let's do this. There should be many people in your security team who have never seen blood. Don't these Jiannu like to kill people? Now let them taste the taste of being slaughtered, so use them to practice assassination."
"Yes." Qu Shixi said in a whisper, "Your Highness will do it now."
