: Survival in the Late Ming Dynasty Chapter 145: Duo Duo Beheads General in the Great Battle

The Xia army surged up to the top of the mountain, which could only accommodate a few thousand soldiers. An unknown number of people rushed up at once.

People were so crowded together that they couldn't even wield knives, let alone muskets, bows and arrows. Many people had lost their weapons and could only punch, kick, and even use their teeth. From time to time someone would

Being pushed down from the side, it was like a falling rock, falling from the mountain. Some who were lucky were still breathing, but those who were unlucky died immediately.

Wu Dahai could see clearly and knew that there was no chance of winning this battle at this point. He repeatedly sent people to look back, but saw that the reinforcements were still far away. I was afraid it was too late. Even if they came from the east, they might not be able to join.

It's a battlefield.

Because the battlefield is full.

"Withdraw." Wu Dahai thought about it. He never cared about the Han soldiers at hand, but he had to worry about the Eight Banners soldiers in his hands. Since it was impossible to do, he could not ruin the Eight Banners' flesh and blood.

here.

Therefore, he left these Han soldiers on the mountain and led the Eight Banners soldiers down the mountain from the east.

Once Wudahai leaves, the Han army on the top of the mountain will naturally not persist to the end. But at this moment, they cannot surrender even if they want to.

Because both sides are desperate, the organization has also been disrupted.

Jin Shenghuan and his generals also lost control of the situation. They were like wild horses that had escaped the reins and could not be stopped immediately. They could only let the people below Ren come in and reorganize the command system one after another until Jin Shenghuan would put everything under control.

After the arrangements were made, there were only a few hundred Qing troops left.

Jin Shenghuan had no time to think and immediately sent someone to take over the Qing army's artillery.

There are not many artillery pieces in Dalongshan, only twenty or thirty. It took the Qing army a lot of effort to get these twenty or thirty artillery pieces up. Jin Shenghuan immediately ordered the gunners in the army to take over these artillery pieces. These artillery pieces were originally from the Xia army.

The Xia Army's standard artillery was very familiar to the Xia army's gunners. After a while, they were sorted out. With an order, they opened fire on the Qing army's formation down the mountain.

The roaring artillery shook the entire battlefield, seeming to announce the change of hands of Dalong Mountain.

There were splashes of blood on Yuan Shizhong's face at this moment. His severed hand was repeatedly broken by the Qing army. Yuan Shizhong could only retreat step by step. But as he continued to retreat, the formation became more chaotic. He even lost his command. If it weren't for Yuan Shizhong's command, he would have lost his command.

There was a deep hatred against the Qing army, and they were almost sworn in. Many people fought hard and almost spontaneously.

Even if Yuan Shizhong's orders are not smooth, he can persevere.

Even so, Yuan Shizhong's troops retreated step by step up the mountain.

It can even be said that there was either a mountain behind Yuan Shizhong, and the Qing army had already attacked from the side. No matter how tenacious Yuan Shizhong was, he was bound to collapse.

this one

However, the round of artillery saved Yuan Shizhong's troops.

This round of artillery did not require any accuracy. Anyway, the Qing army's formation was right there. Dozens of artillery shells crossed the sky and hit hard in the Qing army's formation.

This sudden bombardment made the Qing army a little confused for a moment, even though they had experienced hundreds of battles. The army was somewhat confused and shaken.

Fortunately, these people were all veterans and were very experienced in dealing with artillery attacks. The Qing army immediately dispersed and retreated. But in this way, the Qing army could no longer continue to pursue Yuan Shizhong.

The sound of "Ding Ding Dang" came out. The Qing army naturally retreated like a tide.

When Yuan Shizhong saw the Qing army retreating, he took a breath and felt that his whole body was wet with sweat. He knew that his adventure was successful, and immediately ordered: "Withdraw to the mountains."

Yuan Shizhong went to Dalong Mountain first and did a rough inventory. He found that his entire army was only about 30,000, and the casualties were not small. Moreover, Dalong Mountain was enough to garrison so many men. Yuan Shizhong moved his men from the foot of Dalong Mountain to

On the top of the mountain, choose a flat place and form three formations.

Stand ready.

However, at this moment, he ordered everyone to rest on the spot, drink water, and wait for the war to come. Yuan Shizhong stood at the highest point and could see dozens of miles away. Although the magnification of the telescope was not good, what he could see was

, it’s not clear either, I just saw large black shadows. But I also know where the decisive battle is.

At this moment, the Qing army seemed to have abandoned Dalong Mountain, and a large number of troops went south.

For a while, Yuan Shizhong couldn't help but feel anxious. He didn't know how the war would turn out, let alone whether he could be used. Should he defend Dalong Mountain and wait for the end of the war, or should he make a desperate move and abandon Dalong Mountain with light troops and go south.

Yuan Shizhong fell into hesitation, but Duoduo did not hesitate at all.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please spare my life." Wu Dahai knelt in front of the Dodo horse and kept buttoning his head. The pigtails on the back of his head were flying up and down. He looked very funny, but now no one seemed to be funny at all.

"Wuda Hai." Duduo said coldly: "You are clever but your cleverness has misled you. I have missed you for many years and I will reward you with a whole body."

Wu Dahai is an old man in Duduo's army and a Manchu. He is somewhat related to Duduo. If possible, Duduo would not do it. But he found that the arrogance in the army was too much. After crossing the Yangtze River,

Every time the Qing army fought, they were victorious. It was almost like chasing chickens and dogs. They took away countless gold, silver and jewels. On the contrary, they became a little fashionable in the art of fighting.

Yes, Duduo attaches great importance to the casualties of the Eight Banners soldiers, and there is a tacit understanding among senior generals.

Everyone knows that some battles are defeated, and even if they are defeated, if the losses of the soldiers of the Eight Banners are not great, there is still a chance of being given a lighter sentence.

It is possible to lose, but some battles are won. If the soldiers of the Eight Banners suffer too much loss, the rewards will be limited.

Wudahai felt that even if he lost the battle by protecting these 2,000 and Eight Banners soldiers, it would only be a slap in the face and would not kill him.

Wu Dahai's plan usually worked, but now it hit the point of the gun.

Duduo has long known that this battle is of great importance now, and he must give up any chance of luck among the entire army. Since Wu Dahai has done this, Duduo naturally wants to use his head. When he gave the order, he immediately

Two guards came forward and pulled Wu Dahai's neck tightly with their bow strings.

Wu Dahai struggled desperately, but was pinned down tightly. After a while, his face turned red, and the bowstring sank deeply into his flesh. His feet kicked out two small holes on the ground, and finally he kicked hard.

Pedaling, no strength left.

Duduo sighed slightly in his heart. He also lamented that Wudahai had fallen into this fate. He ordered: "Looking at his past achievements, we will find a good coffin and transport it back to the capital, where he will be buried with his family members."

"Yes." Someone immediately agreed and carried Wudahai's body down.

Duduo glanced around and saw that the generals around him, both Manchu and Han, were as honest as statues. They looked at their noses with their eyes, their mouths with their noses, and their hearts with their mouths. They seemed not to dare to move at all.

Duduo said loudly: "Today's battle, regarding the rise and fall of this dynasty, all generals must use their sincerity. Those who dare to retreat and abandon the war, just like this person, will inform the whole army about this matter, so that everyone knows it. You must know my sword, but

Someone who can kill."

"Cha." The generals below shouted in unison.

Duduo said: "Go down and make arrangements. Don't keep Zhang Xuan waiting for too long."

The generals below stepped back and saluted, got on their horses, and ran towards their respective formations.

Originally, according to Duduo's idea, he wanted to fight the Xia army under Dalong Mountain with the help of the artillery on Dalong Mountain, but now it is no longer possible. Dalong Mountain is not easy to defend and difficult to attack, but if he wants to capture it, he can't.

It will take some time, and Xia's army has already left the city, so there is no time.

Duduo could only change the situation and move the battlefield ten miles to the south.

In this way, Xia Jun will be closer to Anqing City. If something happens and Xia Jun wants to escape, it will be easier. The time for the two sides to fight will be slightly earlier.

Duduo raised his head and saw the sun coming from the east. The sun was quite bright, but the weather was a little hotter in summer. It was around ten o'clock, which was around 6 o'clock. Duduo thought to himself: "It's still early."

It gets late in the summer, so it will still take quite some time until dark. But this period of time is extremely difficult for both Duduo and Zhang Xuan. I wonder how many people’s death anniversary will be today next year
