Chapter 183 Retaliation

The Duke of the Qing Dynasty lost the courage to break through because of his defeat. The Datong Green Camp, which had a bloody path from Xunxian Mountain's official road, and the Shandong Admiral's Supervisor, were unwilling to be trapped to death like this.

After asking for instructions in succession, Shandong Admiral He Fu and Datong General Kang Diaoyuan decided to act alone, and it is necessary to break through the blockade of the bandits before the bandits' defense line was built and break out of the bandits' blockade and fight a bloody road where they can go home.

He Fu and Kang's plan to dig the Yuan was approved by Alihali, deputy commander of the Forward Battalion, and Jialazhang Jinglongtuk of the Inlaid Banner. Everyone knew that all the food was left on the official road. Once the defense line of the bandits was built, there was no need for the bandits to fight and retreat to Xishe Village.

Surrender is definitely not allowed, because the bandits cannot give them their current power, and if they choose to surrender, it will inevitably affect their family.

"Damn it, let me be cannon fodder when attacking Nanning. Now I will break through or be cannon fodder. Why?"

"Yes, since we went south, the Manchu soldiers have done everything they have to die. Why should we be cannon fodder? They enjoy their benefits. Anyway, they will die, and it's better to die at the worst."

"The bandits set up defenses outside the village, and dozens of cannons were facing us, so we could take the lead. That wouldn't we be killed. The village gate is four or five miles away from the bandits' defense line. How can this dark and ignited rush?"

"That's right, that's right, we have to run for an incense stick of time between five or six miles, but the cavalry can reach it in just a few hundred breaths. Why don't they take the lead?"

However, the defeat during the day had long destroyed the Datong Green Camp and Shandong Tubiao's spirit. In addition, after running back and forth for so long, the remnants of the Qing army had long been trapped. No matter how they boosted morale, the remaining green camp was like eggplants beaten by frost, and they could not have the courage to break out of the camp. Many green camp officers and soldiers even sneered in the Eight Banners soldiers who followed the army south.

"Then let the Eight Banners Cavalry rush forward, what will happen to the Green Camp afterward?"

Pingdu lost confidence, but Aosa would not forget his responsibilities. He had to take the auxiliary Duke of the Qing Dynasty back completely.

"This...well, let the vanguard battalion attack the thief formation, but it's dark now, and our army has just suffered such a big defeat. It's not the best time to advance. It's better to wait for tomorrow morning and launch an offensive tomorrow morning."

When the Changmao Ming bandits arrived at Xishe Village, it was already past You. Although Alihali had been in the army for only three years and was in the capital, he also knew that the bandits could not repair the defense line in just half a night. Instead of striking around in a dark and chaotic manner, it would be better to wait until dawn to fight to the death.

"Okay, let the soldiers eat some dry food and rest for a night. We will send troops again tomorrow at the Yin hour and must break through the siege in one fell swoop."

Alihali's words were very pertinent. Due to malnutrition, soldiers of this era generally had night blindness. Even if they could break through the blockade of the bandits tonight, no one could guarantee the safety of Pingdu in the chaos. Nanning is located in the south of the sky, around the Yin hour, the sky was already bright. Aosa also believed that the bandits could not build the defense line in just three hours, so he agreed to Alihali's request at the moment.

Seeing that the Manchus promised to take the lead, the Green Camp soldiers were not able to say anything because they did not want to become prisoners of the bandits. After all, their families were all in Shandong and Datong.

As expected by Alihali, before dawn the next day, the bandits did not repair the defense line. In front of Xishe Village, a trench about a meter wide and two feet deep was dug, and the soil and trees piled up on the road were everywhere.

However, all the prisoners involved in the construction of the defense line have been escorted back to the camp. The exit of the three-mile long distance was full of long-haired bandits, archers, and musket soldiers, and behind them were countless spearmen and swords and shield soldiers. The fifty heavy artillery brought by the Qing soldiers from Wuzhou were arranged at the end of the military formation. Nearly a hundred large and small ships were cruising on the Yongjiang River not far from the official road.

"this……!"

Looking at the tightly blocked long-haired Ming thief, all the Eight Banners generals and Green Camp officials were dumbfounded, and they were all frightened.

Obviously, this group of long-haired Ming thieves had made up their minds and only drove away civilians and surrendered troops to build defense lines at night, and then fought for the possible breakthrough plan of the Qing army during the day.

"Alihali, I heard that your vanguard battalion is a warrior carefully selected by the emperor from the upper three flags, and the horses under her seat are also good horses that are selected from one in a hundred. It would be better for the vanguard battalion to take the lead, which would also inspire the morale of the army!"

Seeing that the Qiongzhou army was on high alert, Aosa's heart was cold, but he could not give up, nor could he choose, because there was no food except the dry food he carried in the army. If the bandits were not broken today, the more than 5,000 Qing troops would have no food. At that time, there would be no need for Ming thieves to fight, and everyone would starve to death in the Xishe Village Inspection Office.

But the so-called "death fellow Taoists" do not die. The Eight Banners of Manchuria are divided into three upper and five lower banners. The so-called "upper three banners" are the two yellow banners and the Zhengbai banners directly under the emperor. The benefits they enjoy are not available to other banners. As the governor of the blue banner, Aosa was dissatisfied with this distribution method from the bottom of his heart.

The Eight Banners of Manchuria all entered the pass from Long to the Pass. Why did they eat the best meals and get the best land to enjoy the happiness in the capital? Even the soldiers and horses were the best among the Eight Banners. The people of the Five Banners wanted to fight for life and death outside, and the land they divided was still left by the Three Banners. Therefore, before going to the battle, they directly ordered the generals of Alihali.

"Duke of the Assistant Kingdom..."

Alihali was confused. The local green camp soldiers didn't know. Could it be that you who had the blue flags in front of you didn't know? The Forward Battalion was crippled by Ma Bao three years ago. The current Forward Battalion was rebuilt. The soldiers in the battalion were all playboys who were used to enjoying blessings in the capital. Yesterday's official battle was actually the first time they went into battle. As a result, the bandits' cannon fired, and they were unable to find the north. Let the Forward Battalion fight the Forward Battalion, wouldn't it be that they could die?

"Taibai, bring my Lord Goshha to the formation, Osa, once Tayibai rushed to the bandit formation, you will follow me to attack. Now the Japanese Lord will have a good time to kill!"

After a night of ideological struggle, the fairness of the country has figured it out. As the royal family of the Aisin Jueluo family, he cannot starve to death in Xishe Village just like this. He wants to fight like his elders. He wants to use blood and long sword to tell the long-haired thieves on the opposite side that the Aisin Jueluo family has no cowards. Now the Qing army is on the verge of despair. It is okay if they win. If they lose, the morale of these 5,000 remaining troops will drop to freezing point immediately. Therefore, Erpingdu directly sent his three hundred Goshha to the battlefield.

"Yeah!"

Taibai was the commander of Shangshan's Goshha and one of the few generals in the Qing army who had experienced the battle to destroy the Ming Dynasty. This time, Pingdu used his Goshha directly, hoping to rely on the real warriors in the blue flag to inspire the morale of the army to the extreme.
