Chapter 111 Beyond

It was originally at an extreme disadvantage, and the Qing army was beaten so hard that it didn't even have the power to fight back. It was beyond Chen Wen's expectations to be able to hold on until now.

The emergence of Ming army reinforcements became the last straw that crushed the Han army's Eight Banners Army. The morale was exhausted. The Qing army soldiers turned around and fled, almost instantly submerged the supervisory team behind the formation. Even the Qing cavalry, which had already appeared on the right wing of the Ming army, had to evacuate when they found that the army was dispersed to prevent them from being restrained by the Ming army's cavalry and causing more casualties.

Once the army collapses, it will be as unstoppable as a mountain collapse and a tsunami. As long as it collapses like now, it is often difficult to reorganize it once a line collapses. After all, the organization of the army lies in the system. If the system collapses, even the rocks will instantly turn into a pile of sand. Even the elite troops will immediately turn into a mob.

The Ming reinforcements that the Qing army noticed looked huge. Whether it was the smoke and dust aroused by the advance of the army or the flags waving in the wind, it all showed that this was a large army with strong forces. But if we looked closer, there were only a few hundred people, and most of them were auxiliary soldiers. However, they almost all had a flag, and there were many branches tied to the tails of the mules and horses that were pulled out. From a distance, they had the posture of a large army moving rapidly.

In fact, if the Qing army had not been on the verge of collapse, or if the Qing army could observe it seriously, the flaws in it were not well covered, and it would be easy to see through this paper tiger.

Unfortunately, the Ming army snatched the initiative from the beginning, and coupled with the sequelae of the Qing Dynasty suppressing military reform, this Han army, which originally regarded itself as highly, performed even worse than some green camp soldiers who had already changed their tactics to better face the Ming army. However, the warfare and fighting spirit of this army still made the Ming army feel a little pressure. If it were the vast majority of green camp soldiers, they would probably not even have the courage to fight the battle overnight, let alone persisting in adversity for so long.

But no matter what, this Qing army is over, and the rest is the question of how many gains can be left.

On the original battlefield, the various infantry teams that entered hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army had already begun to clean the battlefield, but in fact, most of this work was carried out by the firearms team and the fire soldiers. Most of the infantrymen of the Yuanyang Formation Killer Team and the Spear Formation Killer Team were so tired that they sat down on the ground.

He had not had a rest for a day and night. After finally rushing to Jinhua, he only had a rest for a moment before he was involved in the field. It was difficult for his opponent to be an elite like the Eight Banners of the Han army. It would have been difficult for him to persevere until the end of the battle. Especially these infantry soldiers who fought head-on with the Qing army, if they were not full of glorious ideals that surpassed their predecessors, their spirits had long been above the body, and it would have been impossible for them to achieve such a feat.

Looking at the exhausted soldiers under his command, Chen Wen picked up an iron trumpet and shouted loudly, "Soldiers, before the decisive battle with the Tartars, I personally said that ninety-two years ago, our predecessors of the Zhejiang King's Division rushed for more than a hundred miles in one night, defeated the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop, and fought the Huajie Battle that shocked the world. Today, we also rushed for more than a hundred miles in one night, defeating the elite Tartars who defeated the Eight Banners of the Han Army in one fell swoop, and were no less than our predecessors. And we will also be famous in history for the battle, so that the whole world will know the great reputation of our Zhejiang King's Division!"

Listening to Chen Wen's speech, the soldiers who had already lie on the battlefield sat up one after another, and the soldiers who were still cleaning the battlefield also left their work behind and stood up straight to listen to Chen Wen's story. After the final fame and popularity of history, the Ming army present raised their arms and the weapons in their hands, and issued a more shocking cry to the world.

"My Zhejiang King's Army is mighty!"

"mighty!"

"mighty!"

"mighty!"

“…”

The shouts on the battlefield spread to Jinhua City, where there was actually news of the Ming army's victory just now, and the Kuaima spread the news in every corner of the city.

Thinking of the last Qing army besieged the city, 50,000 people were slaughtered. This time, the Qing army broke through the city wall as soon as it came up and entered the most fierce battle with the Ming army. Although the Ming army tried hard to defend the city, if reinforcements had not arrived, it would have been difficult to resist the next attack of the Qing army. Now the main force of the Ming army defeated the fake Tartars of the Eight Banners of the Han army, and all this happened several miles away, which was extremely true.

Especially in this Ming army, there were many local soldiers from Jinhua, so that countless people took to the streets with cheers and excitement, and even more, they cried with joy.

Nothing like Jinhua City, the Qing army fleeing in panic was already like a frightened bird, behind them was the Ming army chasing, and the shouts that shook the world were spreading at a speed far beyond the galloping horses. Even if they heard a few words, the Qing army, which had already reached the extreme, was frightened and fled even more desperately towards the direction away from the Ming army and the battlefield, even Shi Tingzhu was no exception.

In fact, from the beginning, Hong Chengchou did not intend to let their Qing army fight alone with the main force of the Ming army, so he divided some of the Qiantang Water Camp to cruise on the Dongyang River. Originally, under the plan, the Han Eight Banners Army used artillery to collapse the broken wall that the Qing army broke through the city and had not been effectively repaired so far, and then rushed into the city to completely destroy the administrative system and warehouse of the Ming army in Zhejiang, and of course, it also included the war camp called Dongyang.

This was originally an extremely simple task. Whether it was Hong Chengchou, Shi Tingzhu and Liu Zhiyuan, they all firmly believed that the Eight Banners of the Han army in their hands could enter the city to fight the Ming army in one go. Even if the street fighting was not good, setting the city was extremely simple. Anyway, their task was to destroy and destroy the foundation and foundation of the Ming army in Zhejiang, which was easy for them.

But who would have thought that this Ming army used the Mandarin Duck Formation and the Spear Formation to persevere all night. Even the city gate that broke through the Tongyuan Gate late at night did not crush it. Instead, they waited for this reinforcements that were beyond Hong Chengchou's expectations.

In the Qing army for a long time, Shi Tingzhu had already developed a fear of the Eight Banners of Manchus and a contempt for the Ming army. He was deeply rooted. When he first arrived in Hangzhou, he was even ridiculing Liu Zhiyuan for changing his tactics because of the Ming army that had only been in force for more than two years and regarded it as cowardly.

However, as this battle gradually unfolded, especially the result of the battle, the strong and intractable combat effectiveness of the Ming army had already reminded him of the Eight Banners of Manchuria that had been traversing Liaodong, and the combat effectiveness alone was enough to make him betray the entire Guangning Army with Sun Degong. His fear of the barbarian army had long been deeply rooted and could not be removed, but it was still copied to this Ming army, which made him commit suicide after discovering that the reinforcements of the Ming army had arrived.

The Ming army could not forgive a high-ranking official like him, especially the Ming army's attitude towards surrendering people caused his fear, the fear of being unable to escape death after being tortured, and the fear of implicating the family members in the Qing court.

However, the suicide was not successful, so he was rescued by Goshha beside him and then began to flee. But when he broke free from the entanglement of suicide or not, the army had already disintegrated and the soldiers were ashamed. At present, he had to follow these defeated soldiers to roll westward. He wanted to escape from it even with personal soldiers, even if he was protected by his personal soldiers, he could not do it.

Fortunately, there are still hundreds of people in the Yanzhou Green Camp in Lanxi County. I think it can always resist for a while, and he and these defeated soldiers can take the opportunity to transfer to the troop transport ship there and escape back to Hangzhou.
