Chapter 749: Retreat
"What do you say...... Our grain hoarding point in the back was destroyed by the Ming army? ”
In a small dark and damp room made of stone, Du Du grabbed the Qing soldiers who came to report the news, and his face was constantly beating.
He couldn't believe his ears, he really couldn't figure it out, why was a good grain hoarding point given to a pot by the Ming army, could it be that those Ming troops flew over from the sky?
Du Du grabbed the strength of the Qing soldier more and more, the breathless Qing soldier's face turned red, because he couldn't breathe air, even his tongue began to stick out, and a Jia Lama next to him was really afraid that the Qing soldier would die, so he hurriedly said on the side: "Lord Belle, how precious your identity is, if you want to kill this minion, you only need to give an order, why do you need to do it yourself." ”
As soon as this Jia La'e Zhen said this, Du Du realized that this Qing soldier was about to be strangled to death by himself, he let go of his hand, pushed the Qing soldier to the ground, and asked in a cold voice: "You say, how did those Ming troops pass, are there artillery and other firearms?" ”
Du Du let go, and the Qing soldier took a few breaths of air before he came to his senses, and said with a hint of fear on his face: "Lord Belle, those Ming troops were killed from the west, and the minions estimated that they should have turned over the path on the left side of Lutula, and the number was about 1,000 people, and all of them were cavalry, and they did not carry artillery. ”
"There is no artillery...... No artillery was carried! ”
Du Du muttered a few words in his mouth, and asked with a calm face: "The Ming army did not carry artillery, and all the troops were cavalry, you were defending the village, how could it be broken by the Ming army in less than an hour, even if the Ming army did not kill five hundred pigs so quickly!" ”
The Qing soldier who was kicked to the ground cried: "Lord Belle, it's not that you don't work hard. It was the Ming army who got a long-range firearm out of nowhere, and fired two hundred steps away to restrain our crossbowmen, and then the Ming army took the opportunity to break through the stockade, relying on the number of people to defeat us, Lord Niu Lu also served His Majesty in this battle! ”
"Excuses, all excuses!"
Du Du couldn't help kicking the Qing soldier over anymore, and roared: "Since even your Niu Lu was killed in battle, why are you still alive?" Come on, drag this death-scared waste out and cut it down for me! ”
"Huh!"
With Du Du's order, the two Goshha strode in and dragged the Qing soldier out, and with a miserable scream, the Qing soldier who finally escaped did not die in the hands of the Ming army, but in the hands of his own people.
Looking at the bloody head presented by Goshha, Du Du not only felt that the anger in his heart did not subside, but became more vigorous.
He asked the generals around him with a calm face: "Everyone, our grain and grass behind us have been burned by the Ming army, I don't know what your countermeasures are?" ”
The generals were also grim-faced, and the one who persuaded him just now said: "Lord Belle, there is not much grain and grass on our mountain, and now there is only less than two days of grain and grass left, if you continue to defend it, there is a risk that the whole army will be wiped out!" ”
Du Du's brows furrowed, the task given to him by Huang Taiji was to defend Heishaling, do his best to delay the Ming army, and kill and injure a large number of his living forces, so as to gain time for the defense of Shengjing, it is best to hold on for twenty to a month, and at worst, it will hold on for half a month.
But now that he has only been defending for three days, he has to retreat, what will Huang Taiji do with him after returning to Shengjing? What's more, in the past three days, the 30,000 troops he brought have already suffered two percent casualties.
It's just that the task is not completed, the casualties are still so large, if you go back like this, it will be light to be reprimanded, and it will be miserable if you have to be demoted or even eliminated.
Thinking of the fate of being demoted, Rao couldn't help but shudder with his fierceness. This title was exchanged for years of hard work, and if the title was cut off, it would be more sad than killing him.
To be honest, Du Du really doesn't want to leave like this, but as a general who has commanded the army for many years, he also knows very well what will happen if the grain and grass are cut off.
If this is the case, there is no need for the Ming army to attack, and they themselves will collapse first.
Seeing the hesitant Du Du, the surrounding generals didn't dare to say anything, this kind of thing is not something that they, middle and low-level officers, can decide, if they talk too much, if something happens in the future, it will involve themselves, then it will be troublesome.
"Boom ......"
Just when Du Du hesitated, an explosion sounded not far away, accompanied by a few screams and noisy footsteps, and a Goshha hurriedly ran in and said loudly: "Lord Belle, the Ming army has begun shelling again, this time they are attacking our right mountain peak, and our people have suffered heavy casualties!" ”
"It's the right mountain again, what does Zu Dashou want to do, don't you want to live anymore?"
As an old opponent for many years, Du Du still knows the Liaodong Army very well.
Today's Liaodong Army has gradually had the seedlings of the mountain, and all the generals regarded the sergeants under their command as their own private soldiers, and they would not easily risk losses and fight with others, but in the past two days, Zu Dashou has been like a chicken, and has continuously launched a strong attack on the right side of the Black Sand Ridge, especially after the highest small peak was occupied, he even transported ten artillery pieces up the mountain overnight, and condescendingly launched an artillery bombardment on the main peak, which made Du Du embarrassed.
"Where's our artillery, hurry up and return fire!" A general asked.
Someone on the side replied: "Our artillery has been almost worn out in the past two days, and we can't fight an artillery battle with the Ming army at all." ”
Since Tong Yangxing died in battle, the firearms battalion was defeated and killed by Du Du's order, the Qing army did not have anyone who could play artillery, because these artillery almost did not play any role, and most of them were destroyed by the artillery fire of the Ming army in the artillery battle, without the cover of artillery fire, the Qing army could only hide in the bunker and let the artillery of the Ming army ravage.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room had become dull, a leader couldn't help but say, "Lord Belle, you can't keep it here." If we force it to stay, we won't be able to leave even if we want to go in less than three days. ”
"Yes, Lord Belle, now that our grain and grass have been burned, and most of our artillery has been destroyed, we can't hold on any longer, so let's withdraw to Shengjing and make plans."
Seeing that someone had taken the lead, the generals also spoke out to persuade Du Du to retreat.
Du Du thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind, and he stomped his foot violently.
"Well...... Or not...... The order went down, and the whole army was ready to retreat to Shengjing overnight tonight! ”
"Huh!"
Seeing that Du Du finally agreed to retreat, the generals were also relieved, and they went down one after another to prepare for the retreat...... Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "I was a national paw book house in the Ming Dynasty" for free for the first time.
