"Supervisor Xu, in the general's opinion, this Xilin City can no longer be built and defended. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Liu Wenxiu, who served as the commander-in-chief of the Xilin City garrison, said to Xu Xiu with an anxious face.

"Oh? This Xilin City, which Lord Li has high hopes for, is it going to give up like this。。。。。。 ”

"The situation is changing, it is beyond our ability, and it is really a last resort to give up this Xilin City." Liu Wenxiu sighed and said: "Our army is here now, the total garrison strength is only more than 4,000 soldiers and horses, and there is no city wall to rely on, how can it be the opponent of the 20,000 Qing army!" Besides, there are more than 10,000 people and craftsmen here, if the Qing army comes, even if our army can fight to the end, but these unprotected people and craftsmen have to be slaughtered? Therefore, the general believes that the most important thing is to immediately abandon the construction of Xilin City and return to Jintang City on Xuanfu North Road for all personnel. ”

Listening to Liu Wenxiu's words, Xu Xiu also let out a long sigh: "I didn't expect that these Qing troops came so quickly, but they caught our army off guard." In the future, the only way to do this is to retreat urgently in order to future. ”

Liu Wenxiu saw that Xu Xiu agreed with his opinion, so he said again: "Chief Xu, now the outpost of the Qing army is only more than 20 miles away from our army, if our army wants to retreat safely, we must first defeat this sentry cavalry. ”

"Then Chief Liu has a plan?"

"With the arrangement of this general, from now on, all the infantry of our army, escort General Xu and all the people and craftsmen, quickly retreat south. Ben will lead all the flying harriers to ride lightly to stop the enemy, the only way to defeat this sentry can deter the Qing army, so that it can not figure out the strength of our army, and when the night comes, do not dare to advance lightly. In this way, all our soldiers and civilians will be able to take advantage of the darkness to retreat south and finally get free. Liu Wenxiu said in a deep voice.

Xu Xiu nodded, and said with a heavy face: "Okay, according to the general's plan, this official will lead the displaced people and infantry to retreat first, but the general should be more careful." ”

"Don't worry, Ben will pay more attention. Throw away all unnecessary items now, and be sure to retreat as soon as possible. Liu Wenxiu hurriedly instructed.

Soon, Xu Xiu and a group of infantry shouted loudly and ordered all the people and craftsmen who were working to quickly put down their work and retreat south urgently without any belongings.

Listening to this order, many people and craftsmen were still searching for some soft objects to take away, and the scene was quite chaotic for a while.

Seeing that these people were struggling and searching for the west, Xu Xiu, who was afraid of delaying the time, was suddenly in a hurry, and he shouted loudly: "Everyone, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, don't want the jars and jars, as long as you can safely withdraw to Jintang City, Lord Li will definitely settle everyone properly in the future!" ”

Subsequently, Xu Xiu ordered a group of infantry to urgently stop the people and craftsmen from lining up urgently, and escorted them to flee south. The craftsmen were afraid of the sword and had to obey orders.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Xiu finally took all the people and craftsmen, and under the protection of a group of infantry, hurriedly withdrew to the south.

Seeing Xu Xiu and the others finally disappearing into the southern boundary, and looking at Xilin City, which was full of construction materials and mortar cement, Liu Wenxiu's face was very complicated.

"Chuan Ben ordered that he immediately set fire to all the remaining objects in the city." Liu Wenxiu ordered in a heavy tone.

"General, will all those grains and grass be burned too?。。。。。。

"It's all burned, and I can't take it away anyway, but I can't get it cheap."

"Yes。。。。。。"

Soon, the fire rose to the sky, looking at the stacked flour bags and temporary tents, which turned into ashes in an instant, Liu Wenxiu and the faces of the flying harrier soldiers were full of regret and helplessness.

Hmph, the Tartar who entered the dog, Lao Tzu will take revenge in the future!

Liu Wenxiu was secretly ruthless in his heart.

Seeing that all those food, items and tools had been engulfed in the fire, Liu Wenxiu shouted proudly: "Brothers, quickly follow the general and kill the Qing army sentry!" “

"Order!"

600 flying harriers, under the leadership of Liu Wenxiu, galloped all the way to the east.

Soon after, he saw a thin black line appear on the horizon under the blood-like sunset, and then surged rapidly in his direction.

Soon, this black line turned into a large number of clearly armored Qing cavalry at a speed visible to the naked eye, and their banners and horses were becoming more and more conspicuous.

"Phew!"

Liu Wenxiu stopped the cavalry team, but there was a trace of hideousness on his face.

"The whole team quickly divided into two teams, and then the left and right wings attacked together, and killed with all their might!"

The cavalry screamed, quickly divided into two teams on the left and right, each of 300 people, roared and rushed towards the Qing army sentry in the distance.

Liu Wenxiu didn't know that the one who led the troops on the opposite side was actually Niu Lu Ezhen Baiketu, who was defeated by Li Xiao in Jinjiazhuang Fort in Xuanfu Town a few years earlier, and fled in defeat.

After the defeat of Baiketu that day, the original banner lord Dege was quite dissatisfied with him and demoted him to a white tooth Rakhashku, so he has been depressed in the Zhenglan Banner.

It wasn't until Zhenglan Banner experienced those major personnel changes and now became the flag department under the control of Huang Taiji that Baiketu finally found a chance to turn over.

In the war of invasion of Korea at the beginning of the year, he actively performed and killed many Korean reinforcements, so he was deeply appreciated by Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji's appreciation made Bai Ketu happy and grateful in his heart, and secretly determined to make greater contributions to repay Huang Taiji's kindness.

This thousand-mile attack, a surprise attack on Li Xiao, which is being built in Xilin City, Baiketu took the initiative to seek battle, and then, he was appointed as a vanguard sentry by Duoduo, who led the army to fight, with 200 Manchurian Zhenglan Banner cavalry, 100 Mongolian Eight Banner cavalry, and rushed forward to investigate the military situation.

Walking on this thousands of miles of boundless grassland, Bai Ketu, who thought that he had made a new contribution, looked triumphant.

As he walked all the way, he thought that with these 20,000 troops dispatched, those Ming troops and civilians were afraid that they would not be able to dodge, and they were terrified, waiting for their fate, and they would only be killed or captured.

And this time, there was no one for thousands of miles, and not a single Ming army sentry horse was seen, which shows the lax defense of the Ming army. Such a task is really easy.

Therefore, when Baiketu saw that a large number of Ming cavalry suddenly appeared in the distance, and rushed towards him in two teams, he couldn't react for a while.

", these Nikans, so bold, in the face of our elite sentry riders, dare to take the initiative to attack, didn't they eat the gall of the leopard?!" Baiketu was shocked.

In his impression, including Li Xiao, who had defeated him before, he was all defending the city and barely winning the victory. The Ming army that dared to invite the Qing army on this endless field had really never encountered it.

"Hmph, I don't know what is dead or alive. Since you are waiting to die, then don't blame our army for being unkind. Baiketu looked hideous, and then shouted: "Sons, go with this official quickly, kill these damn Ming dogs, let these Nikans have a good taste of the power of my Daqing Iron Horse!" ”

A beastly shout sounded, and the cavalry of the Qing army drew their knives and guns, slammed the horse's belly, and accelerated the speed of galloping.

The Qing cavalry led by Bai Ketu rushed towards the Ming cavalry on the left flank in front.

Baiketu's plan was obvious, that is, to defeat the left wing first, and then turn around and destroy the right wing of the Ming army, so as to wipe out all the brave Ming cavalry.

Looking down from the sky, Liu Wenxiu's cavalry team divided into two parts was arranged in a wedge-shaped battle formation, like two black spikes, and rushed towards the Tartar sentry cavalry that rushed over in a semicircle on the opposite side, and stabbed away.

In the midst of the horse's hooves, on the vast grassland, the grass and mud soaked in the setting sun were splashed high, and the boundless Mongolian steppe trembled and groaned under the struggling horses' hooves, and the rumbling of the horse's hooves was mixed with the shouts of both the enemy and the enemy, like the roar of a bloodthirsty monster.

It's just that when the two armies were only 100 paces away, Liu Wenxiu made a long whistle, and the cavalry on the left flank still rushed towards the Qing cavalry formation on the opposite side. The cavalry on the right flank made a bend and went straight to the tail of the Qing army's sentry cavalry, preparing to attack the cavalry on the left flank.

At this time, the cavalry of the Ming army on the left flank, and the cavalry of the Qing army on the opposite side, everyone stared at the target on the opposite side, pointed directly at the knife and gun, the help of fast horses, and the blood and qi fought together, the victory and defeat were often microseconds, and life and death were only in a moment, this is the hedging of cavalry, which is the highest honor of a hot-blooded man!

"Kill the Tartars!"

"Kill the dog!"

The cavalry on both sides shouted in unison, everyone's face was full of solemn tension, the cavalry spear in his hand was more flat and tight, the cavalry spear was like a forest, the shining cavalry spear tip, in the bloody sunset, shining like blood, shining like blood, more like the smile of death!

Two torrents of steel collided together in the blink of an eye!

The clanging of knives and guns, the dull popping sound of piercing into the human body or the body of a horse, the screams and wails of the wounded or dying people, and the neighing of war horses, all burst out collectively for a while, like a song of death.

Leading the left flank cavalry battle formation, personally charging into the battle in front of the former young general Liu Wenxiu, it was clearly seen that the Ming cavalry of the Flying Harrier cavalry had tried their best to accelerate, and the Ming cavalry who charged in a wedge-shaped battle formation group, although its impact power could not be compared with those Xuanhu heavy cavalry like steel monsters, but in such a high-speed impact state, its impact power also reached an almost terrifying level.

The entire left wing cavalry wedge-shaped battle formation, like a sharp blade, cut from the top of the Tartar semi-circular formation, and immediately tore the Tartar semi-circular sentry cavalry formation in half from the middle like a knife cutting butter, and quickly rushed through a wide blood path, through the formation!

The Tartar sentinels screamed and fell off their horses, a terrifying force that they could barely resist at one point. Where the wedge is headed, it is the scythe of death that reaps life.

Liu Wenxiu looked at it very clearly, and the riding spear in his hand exerted force, which was like a white dragon out of the stream, roaring out, piercing the solid white lacquer bright armor of a white swing tooth horn cavalry on the opposite side, blood immediately spurted out, and the tip of the cavalry spear that did not stop quickly drilled out from his back, and the stainless steel and silver lacquer bright armor behind him rose high.

Beside him, another horseman, who was guarding him, stabbed the neck of the other white tooth horn in the neck, and his momentum was still unabated, and he rushed through his left arm violently, and the white tooth horn screamed, and then fell to the ground with the horse, and the chest cavity of the horse was smashed down by the slammed horse, and he did not move again.

The wedges of the cavalry array rushed in fiercely, whether it was the Manchurian horse armor soldiers or infantry armor sentry horses blocking this fateful blood road, or those Mongolian cavalry, they were almost all killed instantly, or people or horses, and the terrible blood holes were quickly poked out of their bodies, and for a time people turned over on their backs, and there were many wails.

Some of the Tartars fell from their horses after they were killed or wounded, and the uncontrollable Tartar horses scurried around in terror, but in doing so, they trampled to death the wounded soldiers who were rolling and wailing underground, and at the same time rushed the remnants of the Tartars even more chaotically.

Liu Wenxiu estimated that this ferocious first wedge assault caused at least 30 Tartars to die and another 50 to be seriously injured.

In Li Xiao's army, only 10 flying harriers were killed, and 15 cavalrymen were seriously injured.

Rao is like this, this casualty ratio of friend and foe is simply eye-popping.

You must know that on the opposite side are elite cavalry that have been in battle for a long time, and there are many white-toothed soldiers among them.

However, Liu Wenxiu, as the main general, did not feel too surprised. This is because this is the great power and advantage produced by the well-trained cavalry with the cooperation of the wedge-shaped tactics with extremely strong impact power.

Hmph, if it is our army's Xuanhu heavy cavalry, it will definitely be quickly defeated! Liu Wenxiu thought hatefully in his heart.

", this Ming army, but it's just a light horse, it's so sharp!"

After finally dodging a flying spear, Bai Ketu flashed this sentence in his heart.

It's just that just when the Qing army was still breathing, the cavalry of the Ming army on the right flank, which had circled behind them, had already rushed at high speed.

The cavalry on the right flank, like the previous left flank, tore the Tartar semicircular sentry cavalry formation, which had been clearly confused, in half from the middle, and quickly rushed through a wide bloody path, through the formation!

With the rush of the cavalry on the right flank, many Qing cavalry were quickly killed, and people turned on their backs, mourning again and again.

In this attack, more than 80 Qing cavalry were killed and wounded. The wounded soldiers who were not dead rolled on the ground and wailed, screaming unbearably unheard.

The number of dead and wounded of the right-wing Flying Harrier cavalry who attacked the enemy formation was only more than 30 people.

"It's a good time, the whole army will once again follow me to re-attack the battle and completely defeat this Qingqi sentry!"

Liu Wenxiu shouted loudly, drew his riding knife at his waist, led the cavalry on the left flank, and re-entered the formation.

At the same time, the cavalry of the Ming army on the right flank also turned around and attacked back and forth, flanking the troops on the left flank, trapping the remaining Qing troops firmly in the formation.

The cavalry of the Qing army, which was caught in the front and rear attacks, was in chaos.

Liu Wenxiu, who was in front of the battle, saw the opportunity, and the stainless steel waist knife in his hand struck a sharp blow, knocking the tiger gun in the hand of a panicked Manchurian vest soldier away, the knife in his hand was still unabated, and the afterburner on his hand was drawn down, and a white light swept through, and the thigh of this white armor was actually cut off alive by Liu Wenxiu, who was very powerful!

The waist-armored soldier with the broken leg as flat as a mirror roared in pain, but the man fell from his horse upside down at once, and his head hit the grass heavily, leaving only a burst of convulsions.

The left-wing flying harriers who followed Liu Wenxiu's rushing forward, as well as the right-wing light cavalry who attacked the tail, immediately showed their skills in this chaos, all the light cavalry drew their swords, and slashed at the panicked Tartar sentry cavalry on both sides, and cut out a long and terrible hole in the Tartar sentry riders who had just survived, and the poorly equipped Mongolian cavalry was directly cut off by the flying harrier who was charged with a blow, and flew straight into the sky with a column of blood.

But seeing that his own team was suffering heavy casualties almost instantly, Baiketu was furious, and his teeth were almost crushed!

Li Xiao, who entered the dog, actually trained such elite cavalry, and this battle formation was so fierce that he almost had no power to fight back.

"Poof!"

A sharp sword light flashed, and Bai Ketu, who was in the middle of the formation, couldn't dodge, and his left hand was actually cut off alive by a flying harrier!

Baiketu roared loudly in pain, and he, who was skilled in martial arts, endured the severe pain, and immediately slashed the flying harrier with a backhand blow.

Seeing that the winner was about to be injured, the Qing army became more and more panicked, and almost collapsed.

"Retreat quickly!"

Bai Ketu clutched his left wrist, which was constantly spurting blood, and his face was twisted in pain, and he shouted loudly to the panicked Qing cavalry.

Subsequently, under the escort of a dozen or so cavalrymen, he desperately rushed out of a bloody road, and took the lead in turning around and fleeing backwards.
