Chapter 1394 Falls on Both Sides
Outside Lintong County at the rear of the battlefield, there were corpses of the Ming army scattered everywhere, and there were pools of blood on the ground, as if the earth had festered.
Several broken military flags fell to the ground and burned slowly, emitting bursts of black smoke, and the corpses hanging on the horse-repellent stakes were also burning, emitting a disgusting scorching smell.
The city gate at the east gate was wide open, and countless Ming troops rushed out from the narrow door hole in a hurry, and retreated into the city, and the breakthrough of the Ming army ended in failure again.
In the dilapidated Lintong County, Liu Fangliang and Wang Shixiu stood on a city wall in the east city, overlooking the east.
The rumbling cannons, the faint shouts of killing, let them know that the Ming army was fighting fiercely with the Jin army in the west.
They were originally the main force of the Ming army, but now they are trapped in layers of ravines and cannot participate in this big battle.
The shouting and killing in the east has been sounding for a morning, and the battle should be extremely fierce, and the Lintong Ming army, who don't know what the battle situation is, is a little worried.
The gold thief wanted to besiege the city and send reinforcements, and he didn't know if the prison country had seen through the gold thief's intentions. If they were calculated by the Jin army and the main force was defeated, then what should they do, everyone dared not imagine.
"Governor, or I'll rush again." As soon as he retreated, Zhao Shenkuan, whose face was covered with blood, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's rampage the horse army, we will be heroes immediately, and we can still kill thieves when we get off the horse." ”
Wang Shixiu looked at the ravines outside the city, which were covered with corpses, but shook his head. Today has already rushed twice, both ended in failure, and the losses of the Ming army were too great.
The Ming army in the city was too well equipped with firearms, which was the advantage of the Ming army, but the Ming army has become more and more dependent on firearms in recent years.
In the past few days, the grain and grass have been gone, the horses have been killed, the gunpowder has been gone, but it cannot be changed, and the soldiers can only use firearms and short knives to fight in close combat, and the army has suffered heavy losses in several breakthroughs, and has been blocked back by the Jin army.
Liu Fangliang couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and smashed his fist on the battlements on the city wall, and many generals did not look good, and they were suffering in their hearts.
"Governor, look!" Just when everyone was silent, Qin Shangxing on the side pointed to the distance and suddenly exclaimed.
Wang Shixiu and Liu Fangliang looked up, only to see that in the direction of the Jin army camp behind the ravines and low walls, there was a sudden chaos, and the yellow dust was everywhere in the distance, and a team of thousands of cavalry rushed directly into the Jin army's camp, and tens of thousands of Jin army troops and more than 3,000 Jin army elites outside the east city were suddenly in chaos.
The Jin sergeant heard the horse's hooves rolling and came out of the tent in a hurry, but the Ming cavalry had already pulled down the fence with an iron hook, roared and rushed into the camp, killing people when they saw them, and the camp of the Tun army was immediately chaotic.
In a small camp near the city, there were 3,000 elite Jin troops, Sony heard the movement, hurriedly came out of the tent, and the camp of the Tun army behind had been killed by the Ming army who suddenly killed.
When the Ming troops at the head of the city saw this scene, their spirits were greatly lifted, their eyes leaked with fine light, and their sluggish expressions were swept away.
"It's reinforcements, hahaha, Lao Tan is back~" Zhao Shenkuan rushed to the edge of the city wall in one step, and saw a team of horse troops under the banner of rampage, as if they were in a no-man's land, and couldn't help blurting out.
This is probably the first time he has called Tan Tai so affectionately, and before the words fell, Liu Fangliang also laughed, "Hahaha~ Let's get out of trouble today." After speaking, he turned his head to look at Wang Shixiu and said excitedly, "Governor, let's kill it." ”
Looking at the emotional crowd, Wang Shixiu was very excited in his heart, he was very worried about the situation of the main force, and now his heart suddenly fell to the ground.
At the moment, he no longer hesitated, and if he didn't seize the last opportunity, the shame of the Ming army in Lintong City would have no chance to wash away.
Wang Shixiu grabbed the city wall with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "Rush out, this battle will be won." ”
Sonny hurriedly got out of the tent and stepped on the war horse, he didn't expect that the Ming army would actually come from behind, and the tun army there was not at all the opponent of the Ming army's elite cavalry, and the rout army soon poured into the camp of the forbidden army.
Not long after, the entire Jin military camp outside the eastern city fell into chaos.
And at this moment, the gate of Lintong City opened, and countless Ming troops rushed out again.
Caught inside and out, Sony's face was full of horror......
On the western front, after Haoge took 30,000 people, 10,000 to support Wu Sangui, and 20,000 to support Meng Qiaofang, he only had 40,000 people left.
At this time, he was a little tired of dealing with Wang Yan's attack, and the Jin soldiers could only support it, and the danger continued. Hauge personally went to the front line, commanded and dispatched, and barely supported the defensive line.
When the battle situation made Hauge feel anxious, and at this moment, there was a strange noise behind him, Hauge turned his head to look, and the scene in front of him almost made his eyes fly out, and the whole person was broken.
Behind the Jin army, the horse army that came out of Lintong drove the defeated Jin army outside the city, and hit the back of the main Jin army like the tide.
In an instant, a look of panic and despair appeared on the faces of the soldiers of the Jin army, and the Ming army appeared behind them, which meant that the Jin army had been defeated.
Haoge saw this and jumped like thunder, how could the Ming army in Lintong come out and Wu Sangui run? Or do you surrender to the enemy?
In the Ming army, Li Yuanyin was the first to see the movement of the Jin army's rear formation, he saw an elite cavalry galloping forward, driving the Jin army to rout, like a monstrous wave, killing the Jin army's back, and suddenly said excitedly: "Prison country, look at the back of the Jin army!" ”
Wang Yan had already noticed the situation behind the Jin army, and when he saw the cavalry of Lintong rushing out, he immediately laughed wildly: "Hahaha~ Okay!" Beat the drums! Assault the entire army of the Lone King! ”
The war drums of a hundred faces were beaten, the horns on the battlefield sounded in unison, and the Ming army roared angrily, and then swept towards the Jin army······
When Hauge was competing for the Khan position, he had more scruples because of his character defects and missed the Khan position.
Later, during his reign in Jinguo, his wavering personality also made Jin Guo make important mistakes, losing Sichuan, and wasting a lot of time that Jinguo could develop.
In fact, at the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, occupying Guanzhong, Sichuan, Hanzhong, Longyou and other vast areas, it is simply the land of ancient Qin, and at this time the Ming Dynasty retreated to the southwest, the contradiction between Emperor Longwu and Wang Yan in the middle of the dynasty has been very sharp, and the strength between Ming and Jin is not much different.
At this time, the Ming and Qing dynasties were mortal enemies, and Jin was on the side, in fact, they could be left and right, and they could develop with their heads bored.
In the first few years, the Jin State did sit and watch the Ming and Qing dynasties fight, muffled in Guanzhong to stabilize the place, restore the people's livelihood, make the treasury full, and the soldiers were strong, but Haoge was not strong enough, swaying from side to side, and saw that after the Ming Dynasty recovered Jiangnan, he was worried that the Ming Dynasty would become bigger, and then when the Ming and Qing dynasties were not separated, they changed the national policy of the Jin State, betrayed the alliance and attacked the Ming, and the result was heavy losses.
In fact, after the Qing Dynasty lost Nanjing and the Ming Dynasty advanced the front to the Huai River line, the Qing Dynasty, an unpopular regime, was already doomed.
If Haoge can always stick to the covenant, keep the land of Sichuan, advance westward during the Ming and Qing Dynasty battles, expand the national strength, and then decisively carve up the Manchu Qing with the Ming Dynasty when the Ming army and the Qing army are facing each other on the Huai River.
With Haoge's identity, coupled with the matchmaking of the Manchurians in the Jin Kingdom, perhaps Shanxi, Beizhili, and Guanwai in the north will all have to look forward to the wind and reduce gold. In this way, the territory of the Jin State will include Sichuan, Hanzhong, Guanzhong, Shanxi, Beizhi, and Guanwai, and there is a great probability that the pattern of the Northern and Southern Dynasties will be formed.
However, Haoge is the son of Huang Taiji after all, and he has an enmity with Dolgon, but he always has a feeling for Qing, but he has never thought about this road, and he has not broken it completely enough. In his subconscious, the Ming Dynasty, with the Han nationality as the main body, has always been his subconscious enemy, so he unconsciously stood on the side of the Qing several times.
Of course, even if he chooses this way, he may not succeed.
This time, his wavering personality once again made Jin Guo lose his last chance. Hauge not only wanted to stabilize the southern front and leave a way for himself to retreat, but also wanted to increase the northern front and defeat Wang Yan, but the result was that both sides failed.
