Chapter 28 Retreat

At this time, there were few officers among the officers and soldiers. Hu Dawei and Yang Guozhu did not meet with Lu Xiangsheng because they were scattered by the Tarot soldiers. At this time, the general Zhang Yan was in the first battle just now. In order to protect Lu Xiangsheng, he also died in the battlefield and died in the country. There was only one left, Yang, the shepherd. Lu Kai, but Yang Lukai is an official of Lu Xiangsheng's bid battalion and belongs to Lu Xiangsheng's direct line. At this time, he has already been extremely disappointed in the court. Even he doesn't want to work for the court anymore. Therefore, Lu Xiangsheng is not here at this time, and no one controls these officers and soldiers at all, so the officers and soldiers in the battle are cursing loudly. At first, he also controlled the officials who only scolded Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian, and some officials who refused to provide them with food and salary support on the way. Later, under the emotional out of control, someone couldn't control and actually scolded the head of the current emperor Zhu Youjian. At the beginning, one person scolded, and the others also scolded. Thinking about the treatment they received after they recently followed Lu Xiangsheng to the guard, the officers and soldiers were all indignant. Many people said on the spot that they would not wear anything in the future. They would rather follow Xing Tianjun and other good men to work for the emperor in the future.

Seeing that the wounded officers and soldiers have basically been bandaged, and they are full of food and drink, and their spirit and physical strength have recovered a lot. Xiao Tianjian ordered the scattered soldiers in the army to put some seriously injured officers and soldiers who could not walk on their own on their own vehicles, and the rest of the slightly injured officers and soldiers were left in the array to be protected. They acted with the army with an order. Then the army got up and began to move towards the way.

The cavalry battalion walked in the front as a vanguard, while the other three battalions were listed in the rear, protecting the remnants of the Ming army in inverted words and began to evacuate from the battlefield.

After seeing the performance of the Xingtian Army, the officers and soldiers also admired them to death. They thought that they were already the most elite generals of the Ming Dynasty, but when they saw the performance of the soldiers and generals of the Xingtian Army, they knew that they were the frogs in the well. Whether in terms of military appearance or military discipline, these soldiers of the Xingtian Army could do it. Forbidden, under the command and dispatch of Xiao Tianjian, they always kept quiet even on the battlefield, without any chaos. The generals in the army performed their respective duties, so that everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

And the Tasan soldiers on Dorman's side saw that the Xing Tianjun was leaving, and they also moved again. A team of cavalry set out first, surrounded the three sides behind the Xingtian Army Corps from afar, and looked at Xing Tianjun from a distance with a hateful look. Just now, their Taartite Army suffered a loss under the Xingtian Army. They all I don't understand why the useless bird gun in the hands of the Ming army, which is as useless as a fire stick, becomes so sharp in the hands of the Xing Tianjun. The birds of this criminal thief army will not explode, and they will fight far and accurately. Whether they are wearing armor or not, they are not good. The Tats are not afraid of death. They are not afraid of using knives and guns to face with the enemy. And they have long been used to enjoying the pleasure of cutting the enemy's body with a knife, cutting off the enemy's head, cutting off their limbs, cutting open the enemy's chest and abdomen, watching them scream and wailing, they can also accept that they have been cut down by the enemy, but they can't accept being knocked to the ground far away by the enemy, in them. It seems that it is disgraceful to be knocked over by the enemy with cannons or firearms such as bird cannons or three-eyed guns. It is disgraceful to die, and it is not worth it, because they have enough force to show to the enemy. In this way, they really can't accept and are not reconciled to die, but this group of Xing Tianjuns kills in this way. Theirs, so they are also afraid that they don't want to die in that way, so they can only be ordered to follow this Xingtian army far away, see the opportunity to attack them again, rush to them, kill them, or be killed by them.

And the battle array of Xingtian Army is really dense. Several battalions of Xingtian soldiers cooperate with each other quite well. They always move forward alternately, walking slowly but very calmly, and never show any flaws, so that a large number of Tatar soldiers behind them can never catch one. Opportunity to launch an assault on Xing Tianjun.

The whole Xingtian Army is like a hedgehog, moving slowly on the battlefield, while the team of Tartar soldiers is like a group of hounds staring at their prey, surrounding the Xingtian Army from afar. On the one hand, they are drooling, and on the other hand, they are anxious and dare not speak, so the two sides maintain a distance of about a hundred steps. , slowly moved westward.

Dorgon followed up in person this time and always paid attention to the actions of Xing Tianjun. If he wanted to find some flaws in it, he would launch a slam at any time to destroy this group of crazy people here.

He could see that this Xing Tianjun was very good at the skill of battle array, and their main strength to help was to rely on this kind of battle array. As long as their team formation was disrupted, they could not be so arrogant in front of the surging Qing soldiers, but their battle array did not seem to have any flaws, from any Attacking them in one direction, the result is that a large number of firemen will fight back against the Qing soldiers under their command, and never give them any chance.

And what's more terrible about this kind of phalanx is that it also has considerable mobility. As long as the formation does not disperse, you can also use fire to attack the enemy at any time. Although their speed of action is not fast, it makes people very helpless. The whole Xing Tianjun's corps is like an active fortress, which can be used far from their sharpness. Birds shoot at the enemy, and there are forest-like long guns nearby to resist the enemy, and there are also knife hand as melee soldiers around the array at any time. It can be said that they can attack, retreat and defend, which is very difficult to deal with.

After such a distance, Dorton was a little impatient, so he began to send a team of Rangers to launch a side attack on the Xing Tianjun, trying to make trouble for the Xing Tianjun with the reciprocal impact of a small number of cavalry, and then forced the Xing Tianjun to have a flaw and be defeated by him.

However, the tactics of the riding attack also failed in front of Xing Tianjun this time. Xing Tianjun was not moved at all. As long as a small group of Tatar cavalry rushed to them, they would immediately knock over the cavalry with a gun. They would not give them a chance to rush to the Xing Tianjun at all, so after repeated several tentative assaults. Dornon not only did not disturb the action of the Xingtian Army, but also damaged more than a hundred elite cavalry.

However, Dorcon was afraid that the firepower of the Xingtian Army was too strong, and he was afraid that his troops would lose too much, so he did not dare to launch a large-scale attack. Moreover, it has gone deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty. Although they are not afraid of the Ming army, the Ming army still has a little combat effectiveness. The Xuan soldier under Lu Xiangsheng is an example. Son, it has been another month or two since they entered the customs. Presumably, the Ming Emperor Zhu Youjian must have ordered to mobilize the Ming army from all over the country to guard. At this time, they also had to prevent more belligerentful Ming troops from coming. Once he consumed too much troops against this criminal army, he was afraid that it would greatly weaken their battle. Li, once the Ming army was aroused by fire, a large number of people poured in, and he and so many children under his command could not return to the customs.

So Dorcon was very entangled. He had the idea of suppressing the whole army several times, but he was finally forced to suppress it.

At this time, the trolls came to report that three miles ahead was the Little Zhang River, and traces of the Xing Tian Army were found on the west bank of the Xiao Zhang River.

This time, Dorman was anxious. He had just found a problem in the establishment of the Xing Tianjun. All the Xing Tianjun who entered the battlefield were armored soldiers, and this was not the sphere of influence of the Xing Tianjun. Like their Qing army, the Xing Tianjun was also an outbound battle, and the imperial government would never provide it for Xing Tianjun. A little help, maybe he will make trouble for them, and it is impossible for the Xingtian Army to support them to fight just because these soldiers have come so far away, so there must be auxiliary soldiers in the Xingtian Army. However, he just didn't find the brigade of the Xingtian Army in advance, so he doesn't know where the auxiliary soldiers of the Xingtian Army are. Now he It is known that the Xingtian Army entered the battlefield in the area of the Xiaozhang River, and the rest of their soldiers and horses must stay on the west bank of the Xiaozhang River, waiting for the return of the main force of the Xingtian Army.

Once Xing Tianjun is brought together, this time he will suffer a lot of money. In a hurry, a few thoughts flashed in his mind. Even if he made up his mind, he ordered a cavalry to rush to the front of the Xingtian Army to stop the Xing Tianjun's advance and delay them. They surrounded and ordered the remaining soldiers and horses to immediately attack the Xiaozhang River. Even if they can't destroy this Xingtian army today, there is still a chance to drag it until the evening.

At least you can take the opportunity to destroy the auxiliary soldiers of Xing Tianjun on the other side of the Xiaozhang River. At the worst, you have to make Xing Tianjun pay a considerable price. In this way, without the support of the auxiliary soldiers, the grain and ammunition will definitely not be used. In the end, even if they can't be destroyed, they can be forced back to their control area. Go, save them from leaving here to make endless trouble for his Qing army.

On the whole, there must be no problem for Dorgun to deal with the Ming army, but Dorgun can't consider that since Xing Tianjun is so powerful, how can they rush into the battlefield this time without cannons?

A team of tartan soldiers began to act. A group of tartan cavalry of more than 2,000 people began to accelerate to rush to the front of the Xingtian army, blocking the way of the Xingtian army. These tartan soldiers just suffered a lot under the fire of the fire of the Xingtian army. They gritted their teeth angrily and did not dare to revenge. Now they are ordered to stop the Xingtian army from moving forward. One by one, they chose a low earth beam as their defense line. The vest soldiers on the horse turned over and got off the horse one by one, took their bows from the horse's back, and put the arrowheads on the ground, ready to fight. The rest of the Tatarmen were divided into two ways and accelerated all the way, led by Yue Tuo. In the direction of Xiaozhang River, the other road began to surround the Xingtian Army Corps led by Xiao Tianjian under the command of Dorgan.

At this time, the snow in the sky began to get bigger and bigger. Snow began to appear on the frozen ground, and the sky and the earth began to become white. Xiao Tianjian quickly saw the movement of the tari from the telescope and scolded, "This Dorcong is really fierce! Fortunately, it was us who met today, otherwise anyone would suffer a big loss under him! Hurry up and go to the stone bridge!"

A team of Xingtian soldiers began to accelerate, and thousands of big feet stepped on the frozen ground, continued to keep the team neat, and ran in the direction of the Little Zhanghe River. Even the officers and soldiers who were protected in the center of the team felt the atmosphere. Nervous, he ran with Xing Tianjun and tried uneasily to look out of the front to see the situation on the battlefield.

A young officer of the Xing Tianjun, who was responsible for coordinating the officers and soldiers, smiled and said to Yang Lukai, the shepherd, "General Yang, don't worry. The people can't help us!"

Yang Lukai is the direct line of Lu Xiangsheng. For many years, he has followed Lu Xiangsheng to fight south and north. He is very grateful for Xing Tianjun's rescue of them this time. At the same time, he is also a veteran of the battlefield who is familiar with the battle. Riding on the horse, he looks farther than others. He can more or less see the actions of some Tart soldiers, so He immediately asked the officer of Xing Tianjun who accompanied him, "This little brother, it should be Xiaozhanghe in front of him!" Do you have auxiliary soldiers on the west bank of the Xiaozhang River? The Tatar is trying to delay the brigade of Marshal Xiao to raid the auxiliary soldiers on the west bank of the Little Zhanghe River! This is a very vicious strategy! Marshal Xiao can't be careless!"

And the young officer of Xing Tianjun replied with a smile, "Thank you, General Yang for your advice. We do have a group of auxiliary soldiers left on the west bank of the Xiaozhang River, but don't worry about the tricks of the Tatars. They can't get cheap!" This time, not only can't get a discount, but they will also suffer a big loss! General Yang, let's wait and see!"
