Zhu Linmiao asked again: "What about the casualties of other soldiers?" ”

"Returning to the saint," Zhang Jiayu took out the slip of paper that had just copied the numbers, looked at it, and said in a deep voice, "The whole army has a total of 2,960 killed and 1,530 wounded. ”

He paused for a moment and continued: "Ninety percent of them are General Yu's subordinates. In particular, the heavy cavalry battalion and the lancer battalion were almost completely wiped out...... The second is the artillery battalion, which has more than eighty percent of the casualties. ”

When Zhu Linmiao heard this, she felt that a boulder was pressed on her chest. You must know that Yu Xin's department plus the light artillery battalion has a total of less than 7,000 people, and after the battle, the casualties have already exceeded half.

They completely used their blood and lives to block Duoduo's 55,000 troops to the south of Ximing Mountain.

This is the backbone of Daming!

The arrogance of China!

After this battle, the Daming Xiongshi swept through Jiangbei and will be invincible!

It's just that the proportion of casualties today is too high. Zhu Linwei secretly said in his heart that the lives of Ming soldiers are the most valuable wealth of the country, and how to fight the Northern Expedition in the future must be carefully considered......

While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a burst of cheers that shook the sky, and immediately an officer of the imperial camp came to say, "Your Majesty, I have found the chief Duoduo!" ”

A cold light flashed in Zhu Linmiao's eyes, "Bring it to me." ”

"Yes!"

For a moment, Zhao Shichao led several infantry and carried one person in front of Zhu Linmiao.

Zhang Jiayu stepped forward to probe his snort, turned around and shook his head, and said, "Your Majesty, this thief is dead." ”

"It's cheaper for him!" Zhu Linmiao asked Zhao Shichao again, "Can you verify your identity?" ”

"Back to the saint, there are more than 20 captured thieves and officers who have confessed, it should be true."

"Send it back to Nanjing, and whip the corpse outside the east gate for three days."

Zhu Linmiao gave an order to Zhang Jiayu, and then asked Zhao Shichao, "How many other thieves have been captured?" ”

"Returning to the saint," Zhao Shichao arched his hand, "such as a number of family treasures" said, "Capture 22 people including Shuosai, Suke Saha, Ashan, Zhang Hongmo, Cao Gongcheng, Ban Zhifu, and Zhang Jie."

"Killed more than 30 ...... Gong Adai, Sinebuku, Shang Kexi, Lian Guoan, Chitat, Xu Erxian, etc.

"More than 10,000 enemy soldiers were killed and more than 20,000 were captured. There are also nearly 20,000 thieves under He Luohui and Zu Runze's department who escaped from the 'flaw' left by General Zhang on the southwest side, and Yu Zhen, Tie Dake and others have led their troops to chase after them. ”

Zhu Linmiao knew that in the afternoon, because he didn't know what the situation was on Yu Xin's side, in order to prevent the Qing army from deserting to the north, he released some rout troops and fled to the southwest. However, tens of thousands of Zhejiang troops and Jiangxi troops had already arranged "pockets" on the periphery, and Yu Zhen and others pursued them behind, and it was basically impossible for Jianyu to escape his life.

He said uneasily: "Yuanzi, tomorrow send an additional 3,000 men and horses to guard the Chunhua area, and don't let the rout run to the vicinity of Nanjing." ”

"Yes!"

As he was talking, an officer on the side whispered a few words in Zhao Shichao's ear, and the latter hurriedly said to Zhu Linmiao: "Your Majesty, I just counted the battlefield and found eleven corpses of Chen Shaozong and other captives.

"I also caught several Rakshasa generals, and according to the confession, the Rakshasa sent 2,000 soldiers and horses to help capture the thief and commit me."

"Rakshasas?" Zhu Linmiao sneered, "I'm going to find them sooner or later, which has sent me a crusade." Bring me ......."

At the same time that the Ming army was besieging Duoduo in Ximing Mountain, more than 20 miles south of Dantu, Baiyintu, who was ordered to clean up the grain road, led an army of 10,000 people with yellow flags and escorted more than 100 truckloads of military grain to the direction of the Tangshui River.

Baiyintu was so cold that he curled up in the saddle, and was about to tell the guards to change the charcoal in the stove for him, but suddenly there was a rumbling cannon in front of him, and he was so startled that he immediately sat up straight, and said to the officer beside him, "Go and see what the situation is." ”

More than a dozen cavalrymen rode away, returned in a moment, and said in a loud voice: "General, there is a southern army fighting with people six miles away. ”

"How many are there?"

"Back to the general, more than 1,000 people are up and down."

Bai Yintu relieved his heart at this time, "It must be a barbarian rebel." He turned to Ahani beside him and said, "Take someone and clean them up." ”

"Huh!"

Zhang Huangyan's general of the Zhejiang army beat Li Shizheng happily, and suddenly rushed out of 3,000 captives behind him. After the military reform, although the Zhejiang army has improved in terms of equipment and training, it is impossible for them to defeat the elite Yellow Banner soldiers with outnumbered enemies.

Fortunately, the Qing army that was blocked by them had lost all their fighting spirit, and Li simply ordered his men to flee south through the enemy army, but he also escaped four or five hundred people.

Bai Yintu brought the chaotic Qing army together, and then someone brought an officer to him, who turned out to be Li Guoying, the general soldier of northern Sichuan.

Bai Yintu looked at the latter with a bloody face and crooked armor, and wondered: "Your green battalion has nearly 10,000 horses, how can it be defeated by more than a thousand southern troops?" ”

Li Guoying said in mourning: "Lord Belle, Prince Yu fell for the tricks of the southerners and was surrounded in the area from Huanglongbu to Mashan. The last general was ordered to lead his troops to guard the Tangshui River, and this morning a large southern army attacked, and the guns and artillery were extremely sharp. The last general could not resist it, so he had to find an opportunity to retreat north, but he was ambushed on the road, so he retreated further east and was ambushed here...... If it weren't for Lord Belle to come to help, I am afraid that the last general would have been in a different place......"

"You said the general was besieged?" Bai Yin Tu was shocked, grabbed him by the collar and said, "How many enemy troops are there?!" ”

"It's—it's not clear either." Li Guoying said with a sad face, "However, the general has led the main force to Ximing Mountain overnight yesterday, and plans to break through to the north at the end of the day......

"When?" Bai Yintu looked up at the sky, and his heart was tight, "Now that it is almost unitary, if the battle on the general's side is going well, the enemy will have already broken through, but until this time, no news has come......"

Ahanikan arched his hand and said, "General, are we going to rush to help?" ”

Bai Yintu frowned and thought for a long time, shook his head and said, "The situation is unknown, so it is not appropriate to act rashly." You quickly send someone to Xi Ming Mountain to investigate, and the army retreats seven miles to set up camp! ”

"Huh!"

"Send someone to Jiangning again to warn Mu Jilun and Juma Labu, and ask them to beware of the southerners' counterattack!"

"Huh!"

Bai Yintu's face sank like ice all the way, and he couldn't figure out where the large Ming army came from could fight Duoduo's 100,000 main force so embarrassed. So where do you go from here......

"General Zhen, we've fought too much in this battle!" Lu Yousan glanced at the city of Nanjing, and said to Zhen Zhen with a fist, "But 20,000 thieves are still scattered in three places, and the last general is willing to lead his troops out of the city to attack the enemy, if he can't win, he is willing to accept military law!" ”

Zhen Zhenmiao glared at him, "I know how to attack recklessly." The thieves are eating the wind under the city, and what is wrong with us looking at it? ”

"But, that's ......"

Zhen Zhen slapped him the back and said with a smile: "The Holy Lord has already made arrangements. Today is the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, if you want to kill the enemy, tomorrow I will let you be the striker, okay? ”

"Good! Good! Thank you, General! ”

In the early morning of the same day, Yang Tinglin summoned the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty outside the noon gate, and did not avoid the onlookers, announcing in public, "In fact, the imperial court has pacified the Huguang rebellion last year, and the Huguang government decree has been in place for a long time!" The Great Tomorrow gathered more than 200,000 elite soldiers from all over the country to fight for thieves, and at this time he had defeated the Dongyu Duoduo Department, and he would soon return to the army to exterminate the thief army outside Nanjing! ”
