Chapter 224: Seizure

Gan Hui and the others took the blades of the captives, and quickly cut down several captives who were going out of Gong, and then turned around and untied the sixty or seventy people who were bound here.

There are at least a few hundred people left behind in the camp, and it will be difficult to get out of it. Gan Hui looked around, and ordered the rescued people to wait for the opportunity to rescue other people who were captured by Jianyu, and he selected more than ten brave men in the prime of life, each holding dry branches and fire folds to set fire to the Jianguo's military tent.

When the captives of the camp reacted, smoke was already billowing on the east side of the camp, and hundreds of "two-legged sheep" captured by them escaped and fled, among which there were even soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to intercept and kill the fire with knives and guns.

……

Azig personally held a strong bow and rushed towards the Ming army surrounded by the most elite Baya cavalry. He firmly believed that Turai's elite infantry was only temporarily trapped by the Ming army, and with their combat strength, they would not be defeated by the southerners even after dark.

Han Daidang will soon create chaos behind the Nanren, when he leads Bayala to rush to the Ming army to rescue Tulai, supplemented by Zhuo Butai's flanking attack, the tide of battle will be immediately reversed!

When he fought in the north with Huang Ama, he had encountered even more dangerous situations than this, but as long as the warriors of Jianzhou did not give up and dared to fight hard, in the end, those southern dogs did not all kneel and beg to surrender and let him slaughter?

"Lord Belle, don't fight again, go quickly!"

As if he had the intention to disagree with him, more than a dozen horsemen came in the distance, and shouted loudly when they were still far away.

"Who dares to disturb the hearts of our army? Slaughter me! Azig was furious and was about to shoot the man with his bow, but he vaguely saw the man's appearance, as if he was ...... Turai?!

"Gushan Ezhen?" He felt bad in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "...... of your people?"

"It has been defeated here," said Turai, who had approached as he spoke, with a sad expression, "more than half of the Djobutai men were killed and wounded, and the rest were besieged. The Mongol Rider has descended ......"

"These southern dogs!"

Azig was furious and was about to move forward again, but was pulled by Tulai, "Lord Belle, you are a clansman, don't be in danger!" ”

Azig shook off Tulai, and before he could say more, he heard the soldiers next to him turn their heads and shout: "Lord Belle, big battalion!" The camp is on fire! ”

Azig hurriedly turned around to look, and when he saw the black smoke rising from the direction of his camp, he was immediately shocked, "The southerners attacked my camp?!" ”

He turned to Turai again and said coldly, "Where else can we retreat now?" He flicked the reins of his horse and shouted, "Follow me!" ”

On the side, Zhang Hongmo quietly slowed down his horse's speed when he heard this, gradually retreated to the rear, and summoned several henchmen to command in a low voice: "The main force of the Manchurians has been defeated, the camp has been robbed, I am waiting in the Ming Realm, and fighting again is no different from sending him to death." Listen to me......"

Azig led nearly 500 Bayala to run all the way to the front of the Ming army, and before he could see the Ming army, there were dense shells whistling in front of him.

An iron ball weighing more than eight pounds fell to the ground after smashing two bayaras, and then bounced off the ground before sweeping past the legs of Azig's mount when it landed again.

Suddenly, there was a shrill scream of the horses, and the military horses that had been galloping at high speed overturned, throwing Azig on the saddle to the ground.

The speed of movement of the Dragon Guard's cavalry artillery was particularly astonishing, and after assisting the cavalry in bombarding Han Dai's sneak attack troops, they immediately turned to the frontal battlefield, just in time for Azig to lead Bayala to kill.

The 500 Jianyu Bayala were faced with more than 30 artillery pieces, large and small. By the time they vaguely saw the neat horizontal formation of the green-shirted Ming troops in front of them, more than thirty percent had been killed by artillery.

When Turai turned around, he disappeared the figure of Azig, but saw that Zhang Hongmo's thousands of green battalion soldiers behind him had stopped outside the range of the Ming army's artillery, put away the flag, and then fell to their knees with brushes, as if shouting something.

It's just that it's too far away, and he can't hear the chant of "Long live the Ming Emperor" clearly.

When Baya roared and rushed to within 100 paces, the Ming army immediately and mercilessly cross-fired with absolute superior firepower.

In an instant, more than 4,000 artillery shots and 5,000 rounds of lead bullets tore more than 300 captives to pieces, and the battlefield suddenly became silent.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and every Ming soldier looked at the corpses of countless Jianzhu in front of the battle in a daze, only to feel that his mind was blank.

After a long time, I don't know who shouted first, "Win!" ”

Immediately, the excitement and excitement spread instantly, and tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ming Army raised their weapons one after another and shouted.

"Win!"

"We won!"

"Long live Daming!"

They patted each other on the shoulders and laughed, and some burst into tears of emotion.

They won.

They fought with their lives and defeated the captives who were twice their own number and had been unstoppable.

A complete and glorious victory!

Zhu Linmiao did not shout excitedly like the other soldiers.

He stood on top of a mound and looked out at the blood-soaked battlefield where tens of thousands of prisoners lay and thousands of Ming soldiers gave their lives.

The casualties of each battalion were summed up one after another, and according to the rough statistics made by Yu Xin so far, thousands of soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army were killed.

In particular, the 6th Infantry Battalion and the Dragoon Battalion, which formed a hollow phalanx with more than 1,000 troops to resist nearly 3,000 captives, sacrificed more than 400 soldiers in the confrontation with Jianyu.

The losses on the side of the broken camp were even heavier, and Gu Yanwu's estimated death toll was close to two thousand.

This biggest victory against Jianyu since the founding of the Ming Dynasty was bought with the lives and blood of thousands of Ming soldiers!

Zhu Linmiao was silent for a long time, and finally took a deep breath, raised his slightly trembling right hand, and saluted these warriors who bravely sacrificed their lives for the Ming Dynasty.

"Yuanzi," finally, he slowly lowered his hand, looked at the wilderness in front of him and said to Zhang Jiayu in a deep voice, "Everywhere stained with the blood of my soldiers should be circled." Level the ground, build a martyr's cemetery, let everyone remember these warriors, and let people have a place to pay their respects. ”

"Yes!" Zhang Jiayu saluted seriously.

……

"My lord, Li Chengfen's troops outside Shanguan Pass have abandoned their weapons and surrendered."

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yu Xin saluted Zhu Linmiao and continued: "More than 12,000 enemies were killed in this battle, half of which were Tartars from Manchuria. A total of 24 puppet officials including Jianyu Tulai, Zhuo Butai, Han Dai and below were beheaded for us.

"More than 25,000 captives were captured. Sixteen puppet officials such as Yin Dai, such as Battell, Tong Yangjia, Cao Cunxing, and Li Chengfen were captured. ”

As he was talking, the Zhu family brother also entered the account to salute and reported the seizure to Zhu Linmiao.

Because the camp was burned, not much baggage and silver were obtained, but other items such as armor, firearms, swords and shields, bows and arrows were very large.

In particular, the armor rate of the Jianyu banner soldiers is extremely high, and there are more than 16,000 pieces of cotton armor obtained in this battle, which is enough for the Dragon Guard and the Broken Battalion.

In addition, there are a lot of scales and armor equipped by the captive Bayala, which can be allocated to the camp of the captive. It's not been a day or two since the lancers under Tie Dake were looking forward to good armor.
