Chapter 287: The Brown Bear and the Hyena (100 Monthly Passes Plus Update)
In the wilderness outside Haizhou City, more than 13,000 cavalry of the Manchurian Eight Banners and Mengbaqi led by Dolgon were riveting to catch up with the Ming army in front.
Their enthusiasm for the battle did not even need to be supervised by Dolgon and Bao Chengxian, and the pain of losing their horses made these Eight Banners soldiers crazy.
Of course, Liu Hongjian couldn't do what they wanted, he didn't know who was leading the Tartars behind him, but this didn't prevent him from escaping.
In fact, the quality of the horses stolen two days ago was surprisingly good, and the distance between the Ming army and the Tartar army was maintained at a distance of two or three hundred paces.
The new horse under the crotch of the Tartar soldiers has used all their strength to eat, and the distance of two or three hundred steps is unable to catch up, and Liu Hong gradually feels that the war horse under the crotch has not yet exerted its strongest strength.
The more than 10,000 cavalry lines of the Tartar soldiers were even longer and longer, and the front row was two or three hundred steps away from the Ming army, but the Ming army was almost invisible in the back row.
"Stop! The rear row prepares the platoon gun! Liu Hongjian suddenly yelled.
The banner soldier beside him immediately raised the flag and gave the order, and in just a moment, the entire cavalry team of 3,000 people changed from the rear to the front, stopped the forward charge of the war horse and turned the horse's head.
"Raise your gun!"
"Ready!"
"Fire!"
Bang bang bang - bang - bang -
As soon as the Tatar cavalry at the head came into range of the musketeers, they buried their heads in eating a bunch of iron eggs.
In the past two days of fighting, most of the war horses under the crotch of the Ming army have adapted to the sound of fire, but it is obvious that the war horses under the crotch of the Tartar army can't do it.
Not to mention how many horses were hit by the bullets of this firecracker, but the sound of this shot caused confusion among the Tartar soldiers.
However, the Eight Banners still had two brushes, after all, they were Dolgon's descendants, and the Eight Banners soldiers only subdued the inferior horses under their crotch in a moment.
The enemy was in sight, and the Tartars rushed forward fearlessly to the sound of musketeers.
"The musketeers retreat, the AKM shooters are broken!" Liu Hong gradually ordered loudly.
Da Da Da - Da - Da Da Da -
All the AKM shooters were ordered to fire in bursts, frantically strafing the Tartars who were close at hand.
"Withdraw!" After firing the bullets in the magazine in one go, Liu Hong gradually lost time to look at the panicked expressions of the Tartar soldiers behind him, and turned his head and ran.
With just a volley of musketeers, plus a round of strafing from the AKMs, the Tartars lost at least a few hundred soldiers, thanks to the true elite who had been fighting with Dorgon for many years.
If it were an ordinary army, just this head-on blow would have caused the army to collapse.
But Rao is like this, and it still makes Dolgon and Bao Chengxian frown.
Is this the firearm that Zilharang and Daishana Puff were talking about?
Where did the Ming army get these firearms?
Fortunately, I heard that this kind of firearm has always been like this in the Ming army, otherwise if the whole army is really equipped, then they will still play with wool in the Qing Dynasty?
They are all the elite of this king! Dolgon looked at the fallen soldiers in the front row and felt distressed.
At the beginning of the pursuit, Dolgon thought that there might be an ambush ahead, and according to the latest reports, these were real Ming troops in front, and there were only so many people.
The so-called ambush must be the group of people newly recruited by this treacherous An Guohou in Liaodong, and it is Dolgon who doesn't care much about these people, so the ambush will be ambushed!
It's just a group of people, in the face of absolute strength, the number of people really doesn't matter!
But I've been chasing for dozens of miles, where is the ambush? Dolgon scolded his mother angrily.
These days, Dolgon has been under tremendous pressure, and the Manchu, Mongolian and Han armies of the whole country have been on the border of the Ming Dynasty for a month but have not achieved an inch.
A few days ago, Dolgon already knew that this attack on the Ming was destined to fail, because the supplies of the Qing Dynasty were simply not enough to support such a large army for a long time.
Then there was the Ming Dynasty's An Guohou who rushed thousands of miles to slaughter his people, which was really unsettled and rose again and again.
The more Dolgon thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and he couldn't wait to catch up with the cavalry in front of him, and break the corpse of the dog R into thousands of pieces, and then make meatballs and eat them.
"Chase this king! Those who capture the leader of the thief army alive will be crowned as a first-class Taiji! Bounty! Dorgon shouted!
Whoa—whoa—whether it is the Tartar of the White Flag of Manchuria or the Mongol Tartar of Horqin, the blood boils with the stimulus of a great reward.
Da Da Da Da - Da Da Da - Da -
Liu Hongjian didn't hear Dolgon's clear price for him, he just saw the opportunity and turned behind him.
If he knew that he was dignified and peaceful, and he was only worth a thousand gold in the Tartar army, I don't know if he would reward the Tartar soldiers with a few shuttles of bullets in anger.
But he didn't dare to go too far, in case it hurt people, and people felt that they couldn't catch up, so what if they didn't chase them?
That's not good, according to the plan, at least you have to drag the Tartar behind you for an afternoon, that's what to do, you can't be so untenacious!
Liu Hong gradually changed the magazine while running, and from time to time he turned his head to see that the Tartar was still chasing from time to time, and he also commanded the troops in front to run slowly, after all, people's war horses didn't seem to be worthy of butts.
After chasing for an hour, the horses of the Tartar soldiers were foaming at the mouth, and they were stunned that they did not catch up.
"Your Royal Highness the Regent, we can't chase it anymore, we are already more than a hundred miles away from Haizhou......" Deputy Commander Bao Chengxian said.
He knew that Dolgon hated the leader of the Ming army in front of him, but he hated it, and you couldn't catch up, and it was obvious that the thief would march like this on purpose, and he didn't believe that Dolgon couldn't see it.
In fact, he didn't hate it, his ass was beaten with thirty sticks last night, and he still has to go out with the army today.
Even when the executing soldier released the water, he still felt a hot pain in his buttocks, and the long jolting on the horse already made him feel that his butt was not his own.
All this is thanks to the dog R's An Guohou, Bao Chengxian had a gloomy face.
"Collect the troops!" Dolgon waved his hand helplessly and ordered.
The newly recruited war horses from the rear are still almost meaningless, and the endurance is not good!
The Tartar soldiers got the order, but they all slowed down their marching speed in frustration, and after chasing for so long, they didn't catch the hair, and they were killed a lot of people, who is not angry?
Hmph, let you go for two more days, and when Azig and them come back, this king will let you have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth!
Dolgon slapped his horse and tried to retreat, but before he could take two steps, there was a shout of murder behind him.
"Report to His Royal Highness the Regent, the thief army is rushing towards us......"
Da - Da - Da
Made, little one, are you going to give up?
It's too unproductive, isn't it? It's still early!
Liu Hongjian cursed secretly in his heart, and ordered the troops to take the initiative to stick it.
Da - Da
"Withdraw!" Seeing that the Tartar soldiers were about to chase after him, Liu Hong gradually made a decision.
In this way, the Tartar soldiers and the Ming army advanced and retreated, you advance and I retreat, you retreat and I advance, and a unique pursuit battle was launched on the deserted land.
The Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were like a big brown bear, clumsy and huge, and they were invincible by virtue of their superiority in strength.
Liu Hongji's musketeers, on the other hand, were like a pack of hyenas, small in number but quick in action, and from time to time they could come and bleed brown bears.
Dolgon didn't know how long this dog R's An Guohou was going to make trouble, but he was really tired.
It's already half an afternoon, not to mention the soldiers' horses, even the thousand-mile horses under his crotch are already a little tired.
He was convinced that without more troops to participate in the interception, he would not be able to wipe out this cunning Ming army with his current strength.
Suddenly there was movement from behind, and a soldier who appeared to be wounded arrived on horseback, and Dorgon frowned.
"Report to His Royal Highness the Regent! The thieves opened the city gate by fraud, and Haizhou ...... Haizhou is lost! A soldier covered in blood fell from his horse and lay on the ground after saying a word before fainting.
His wounds weren't so severe, but he followed his tracks for a long time before he finally found Dorgon's army......
"What? How could Haizhou City be lost? Rise up for this king, you! Dolgon's hair fluttered suddenly, and he suddenly realized that the day's chase seemed to be a trap.
"Yu'er! My jade! ”
