Chapter 726 Decisive Battle on the Western Front II
On the road leading to Dasheng Pass, Wang Yanlerma stopped on a dirt bag and was looking at the surrounding terrain.
His eyes were extraordinarily bright, flashing with this fine light, as if he wanted to take in the mountains and rivers within a radius of dozens of miles.
Behind him, a fiery red dragon was slowly moving eastward, only to see the disc helmet fluttering, the red feathers undulating.
To tell the truth, a place with a radius of nearly 100 miles from Ma'anshan to Dashengguan is not suitable for the battlefield of the Ming army, because the land is really peaceful, which is also the reason for Jin Shenghuan's fiasco.
In the first battle of eastern Sichuan, he captured more than 30,000 war horses of Wu Sangui, and the north of the Han River, hundreds of miles of uninhabited land, stocking, as a horse farm, but the cavalry is not so easy to train, unless it is constantly eliminated and honed on the battlefield, it cannot be trained in a short time.
Wang Yan highlighted Qingzhou at the beginning, and tens of thousands of righteous troops in Shandong were chased and killed by Zhun Tower, fighting every day, from Shandong to Beizhi, tens of thousands of people were finally left with more than 1,000 numbers.
The five loyal troops can now only be called cavalry with 5,000 cavalry, and the rest are infantry on horseback.
Because Wang Yan wanted to avoid the Tanma in the direction of Ma'anshan, the army spared more than 50 miles to the south, and after Ma'anshan, the army corrected the route and rushed to the Dasheng Pass in the northeast direction, and walked a long way, so if Boluo raised troops to catch up, the Wuzhong Army could not reach the Dasheng Pass, and would be caught up by the Qing cavalry.
Wang Yan stood on the dirt slope with several generals, and he estimated that Bolo's men and horses should be almost there, but he still did not find a suitable battlefield.
Liu Shun on the side spat and scolded: "Damn, there is no bird place, not a mountain, not a forest, and you can't make an ambush!" โ
Wang Yan shook his head and said: "The reason why the land south of the Yangtze River is rich is that the plains are vast and there are many rivers, which are easy to develop, so most places have been opened and gnawed out, how can the people tolerate long forests coming out." โ
Gao Yigong looked at the sky, and then looked at the marching team that was not in sight, but his face was a little anxious, "Your Highness, the army is so long, if the Qing cavalry chases, as long as it rushes, the army will be in chaos!" โ
Wang Yan was also worried about this problem, he took the lead, and the venue for the decisive battle was chosen by him, but he did not find a suitable place for the decisive battle now.
Wang Yan frowned slightly, thought for a while, turned his head and said to the generals: "There may not be a suitable place ahead, pass on the military order of this domain, and the army will line up here, waiting for Boluo's soldiers!" โ
When they heard the order, they immediately took out the trumpet and blew it, and the trumpet spread, and the advancing army immediately stopped moving.
At this moment, a convoy appeared in the distance, and dozens of cavalry rushed towards the dirt slope ahead of the convoy, which was the sentry horse released by Wang Yan.
The cavalry galloped to the bottom of the dirt slope, and the first of the generals, before the horse stopped, threw a man on the horse's back to the ground, and then quickly jumped down, and then lifted the man who had fallen down, and walked up the dirt slope.
"Your Highness, the last general probed in the direction of Dasheng Pass, met the Qing army transport team, and captured its main general." The general was Wang Shixiu, and he threw the general in front of Wang Yan, clenched his fists and bowed.
Wang Yan waved his hand to the side, looked down at the Qing general who had already knelt consciously, and asked, "Official position, military status." โ
"The sinner is the soldiers and horses of Jiangbei, and Liu Dongping has thousands of households." Mr. Qian replied hurriedly.
Liu Dongping is Liu Zeqing, who was named Dongping Bo during the Hongguang Dynasty, and this Qian always said that he was an official position in the Ming Dynasty, which can be regarded as a clever wit.
"This clan asks you, what are you doing with the supplies?" Wang Yan asked again.
"Returning to His Royal Highness, Bolo led three Han army flags, as well as 60,000 people from Li Benshen, Yang Chengzu and other green battalions, and was besieging the remnants of the Ming army in Ma'anshan. The villain was ordered to clean up the battlefield and transport supplies to Jiangning. After answering Wang Yan's question, Mr. Qian took the initiative to continue to explain: "Now there are only more than 10,000 soldiers in Nanjing, and there are even fewer people in Dashengguan, there were originally 5,000 troops, but to clean up the battlefield and transport materials into Nanjing, it is estimated that there are only more than 3,000 people guarding the pass. โ
Wang Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and smiled slightly, "You are positive, not only do you have to answer questions, but you also answered if you didn't ask." โ
That Qian always listened to Wang Yan's words, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he cooperated so much, hoping to save his life.
"His Royal Highness broke the quasi-tower outside Yangzhou City, and the sinners were among the captives, but fortunately, His Royal Highness was generous and merciful, and let the sinners go, so that the sinners could save their lives.
As soon as Wang Yan heard what he said, he remembered that he had listened to Jiang Tianyi's suggestion and indeed released a group of green camp prisoners, in order to reduce the resistance of the Qing soldiers when he returned to Jiangbei, so that the Qing soldiers would choose to surrender in a desperate situation, rather than be killed.
Almost four years have passed, Wang Yan has long forgotten about it, and he has not set foot on the land of Jiangbei so far.
Wang Yan felt a feeling in his heart, nodded, and ordered, let people take this Qianzong down, and did not say whether to kill or not.
Chen Bangyan, who was on the side, stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the lower official thinks that this person can be used." โ
Wang Yan glanced at him and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, a team of scouts galloped from behind, many of them were still injured, they came to the bottom of the slope, and immediately attracted the attention of Wang Yan and others, Wang Yan's expression couldn't help but be solemn.
The cavalry hurriedly climbed up the high slope, and before he could come up and salute, Gao Yigong on the side preemptively asked, "Where is Bolo?" โ
"It's coming!" The cavalry replied, and didn't care to take a breath, so he saluted Wang Yan and said: "The king, the humble post is twenty miles away, and he has already fought with the Qing army's sentry cavalry. โ
Hearing this, the generals of the Ming army on the soil slope began to get excited, Wang Yan knew that this battle was related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty and the Five Loyal Army, and whether the Ming army could regain the shame of losing both of them and recapture the old capital after four years of losing the southern capital.
Wang Yan couldn't help but clench his fists, waved his arms, and shouted loudly: "All soldiers, this battle will be won!" โ
The faces of the generals on the dirt slope were solemn, and they waved their arms in response: "Victory!" โ
For a time, the military orders on the hillside were flying, the infantry on the official road were boiling, and the battalions began to form according to the formation map, and the cavalry flew on their horses and cruised outside, sheltering the infantry in formation.
Just when Wang Yan's main force was about to fight Bolo, there had been fierce fighting for several days on Jingting Mountain on the southern front.
On the banks of the Niutun River on the northern line, the earth-shattering shouts and rumbling cannons resounded on both sides of the river.
After being defeated by Duoduo in the Wet Whisker Mountain, and after defeating the 5,000 men and horses of the general Dang Shousu and the Longsheng battalion, Li Guo, who retreated to the Niutun River, only had time to build some simple fortifications, and Duoduo killed more than 50,000 horses and horses to the shore.
The Niutun River is just a small river, and with the lack of water in summer, the Qing soldiers can almost wade through it.
As soon as the Qing army arrived, Duoduo ordered the army to attack quickly, and the Qing army either took a small boat, or a raft, or waded across the river, rushed to the beachhead, overturned the fence temporarily erected by the defenders, and frantically attacked Li Guo's defense line.
