Chapter 956: The Brave Win (2)
Zheng Jinhong's face was gloomy and terrifying, as if it was covered with a layer of ice.
The battle was so fierce, this was something he didn't expect, the biggest advantage of the army under his command, the Mauser gun, because the climate was too cold, it was difficult to play a role, which was also unexpected, and what he didn't expect was that Duoduo's command was not only the Eight Banners Army, but also the Mongolian cavalry.
According to Zheng Jinhong's arrangement, the 5,000 soldiers led by Su Manzi launched a charge, which must have panicked the Eight Banners Army in Fengzhen, and the 10,000 soldiers led by Zheng Jinhong took advantage of the chaos of the Eight Banners Army's formation to launch a powerful charge, so that they could defeat the Eight Banners Army in one fell swoop, and as for the reserve composed of 5,000 soldiers, the greater role was to prevent the Eight Banners Army from escaping.
In fact, under such a cold climate, it is impossible for the Eight Banners Army to choose to escape.
The battle has lasted for a long time, the Eight Banners Army stationed in Fengzhen still has no movement, the battle between the imperial army and the Eight Banners Army and the Mongolian cavalry is only a mile away from Fengzhen, such a close distance, why didn't Duoduo order the Eight Banners Army under his command or the Mongolian army to rush to help, is Duoduo so confident that the sergeants he sent will definitely be able to resist the impact and fight of the army.
Su Manzi is very real, the situation of the report is also real, the fight is very tragic, and it is unusually glued, the soldiers under his command occupy a slight advantage, the cavalry of the Eight Banners Army is very brave, even out of disadvantage and will never retreat, but the Mongolian cavalry combat effectiveness is obviously weaker, it is difficult to resist the situation, it will scatter and flee, and now the main force of the soldiers has almost turned to the desperate resistance of the Eight Banners Army.
As for when the battle would end, Su Manzi could not predict.
Su Manzi's report made Zheng Jinhong keenly aware that his deployment was seen through by Duoduo. In other words, Duoduo ordered the Eight Banners Army to resist desperately, which was to buy time for the Eight Banners Army stationed in Fengzhen and force the army led by Zheng Jinhong to storm Fengzhen.
Now. Zheng Jinhong thought of the emperor's entrustment, and it seemed that the emperor had long expected such a situation.
Zheng Jinhong quickly changed the deployment, canceled the reserves, and 15,000 soldiers were ready to attack Fengzhen, under such harsh climatic conditions, it was impossible for the Eight Banners Army to withdraw, and they would resist desperately, this was a cruel battle, and the Eight Banners Army was extremely brave. If you're not careful, you may fail.
Zheng Jinhong resisted the impulse in his heart, if he ordered the reserve team to rush to the aid of Su Manzi at this moment, he believed that the battle could end in a short time, but he couldn't do this, how many Eight Banner Army and how many Mongolian cavalry there were in Fengzhen, it was still unknown how many troops under his command. It is necessary to maintain the advantage in numbers so that you can suppress Duoduo. Otherwise, the two sides will be caught in a scuffle, evenly matched, and the outcome of the battle will be unpredictable.
Zheng Jinhong was anxiously waiting for the result of Su Manzi's battle, and his heart was extremely tormented, at this time, he felt that time passed very slowly.
Dordor's life was just as difficult. The heralds continued to report, the Eight Banners Army fighting in front and the resistance were difficult, and the losses were very heavy, and most of the Mongolian cavalry withdrew from the battle and disappeared. If they don't rush to help, then the 2,000 cavalry of the Eight Banners Army will face the end of the total annihilation.
In the final analysis, the Ming army had an advantage in the number of people attacking, and the Ming army was fully prepared, and the Eight Banners Army was caught off guard.
Duoduo also wanted to send a sergeant to support, but after thinking about it, he did not make such a decision, the reason was simple, the large army of the Ming army did not move.
Duoduo believes that the Ming army that came to attack is by no means more than about 5,000 people, at least more than 10,000 people, and the Ming army has no troops to help explain the combat purpose of its main force, which is to completely annihilate the Eight Banners Army led by Duoduo, at this time, it is not impulsive, and the remaining Eight Banners Army must hold Fengzhen to the death, relying on the favorable terrain of Fengzhen, to prevent the Ming army's attack, now time is the most critical, as long as it can resist the attack of the Ming army, wait until the weather improves, He was able to figure out how to lead the army to evacuate quickly.
Several Niu Lu Ezhen came to ask for battle, but they were all reprimanded by Duoduo mercilessly.
This situation made Duoduo a little helpless, the following Niu Lu Ezhen also wanted to defeat the Ming army, but these low-level officers did not see what was behind the fight, they didn't know that the Ming army was prepared, if the Eight Banners Army attacked easily, it would soon fall into the heavy encirclement of the Ming army, and at that time, it was really powerless.
Zheng Jinhong and Duoduo did not expect that the harsh climate prompted them to fight to the death face to face, and both sides had no way to retreat, the Eight Banners Army had no place to evacuate, but could only defend to the death, and the imperial army also had to attack desperately, Zheng Jinhong did not want the war to spread to the pass.
This may be a decision made by God, allowing the two sides to fight fairly face to face, and each showing its best ability.
Under the persuasion of the herald and his own soldiers, Su Manzi finally withdrew from the battle, at this time, the soldiers under his command and occupied an absolute advantage, the Mongolian cavalry and fled almost, under such a harsh climate, I don't know where those Mongolian cavalry can flee to, these Su barbarians can't control, his main target is the Eight Banners Army.
The escape of the Mongolian cavalry also reassured Su Manzi a lot, and he had asked the herald to report the situation of the Mongolian cavalry, that is to say, the combat effectiveness of these Mongolian cavalry was not particularly strong, far inferior to the Eight Banners Army.
In fact, Zheng Jinhong and Su Manzi both ignored one thing, that is, the cavalry of the Chahar tribe was also incorporated into the Mengba Banner, and the tribe itself could not have many cavalry, and there were not many cavalry that could support Duoduo, and it was impossible for people to contribute all their family resources, if the two of them thought of this, they would understand that the number of sergeants under Duoduo would never be more than the number of the imperial army.
But all of a sudden, there was a battle and a fight, and the fight was so fierce, no one would have thought that there were so many.
Su Manzi's left arm was already a little numb, and the medical officer nervously pulled out the arrow and bandaged the wound on the side, the strange thing was that Su Manzi didn't feel the pain, he was engrossed in watching the battle on the battlefield.
The heavy snow blocked the realization of Su Manzi, and the yellow sand blown by the wind made the battlefield extremely weird.
The uniforms of the Eight Banners Army are white, and if you are a little farther away, it will be difficult to see clearly.
Su Manzi cursed viciously for the bad weather, what he didn't expect was that the bad climate was unfavorable for the imperial army, but it was even more unfavorable for the Eight Banners Army, as long as the heavy snow and wind continued, the Eight Banners Army would not dare to evacuate, and they must defend Fengzhen, otherwise in such a battle, the Eight Banners Army would have already tried their best to evacuate, and the imperial army did not have the slightest advantage in the pursuit of the desert.
In this respect, the bad weather helped the imperial army.
The battlefield gradually calmed down, and most of the places that Su Manzi could see were red, and occasionally some white were tightly surrounded by red.
The scouts and heralds had been closely monitoring the situation in the direction of Fengzhen, and if the Eight Banners Army rushed out of Fengzhen, they would rush to inform Su Manzi and quickly report to the commander.
The Eight Banners Army was very tenacious, seeing that it was about to be wiped out, it was still unwilling to evacuate, and the Eight Banners Army rushing to help could not be seen in the direction of Fengzhen, which made Su Manzi feel strange, could it be that Duoduo was really so ruthless, watching the Eight Banners Army sent out to fight annihilated.
Su Manzi had a thousand soldiers by his side, and these soldiers were all ordered to withdraw.
Zheng Jinhong had already ordered that he should try his best to let the Eight Banners Army stationed in Fengzhen come to help, and the fight on the battlefield should not be too anxious, and try to avoid excessive casualties.
Su Manzi, who commanded the battle, still had a strong comprehension ability, and after he withdrew from the battle, he ordered some of the soldiers to also withdraw from the battle.
There are not many Eight Banner Army that is still holding on, Su Manzi stared at the red eyes, looked at the heralds and personal soldiers around him, and a sentence came out of his mouth.
"I don't think Duoduo will move, he didn't think about letting these Tartars live at all, Duoduo is a bastard, and he is really ruthless, herald, you go and report to the commander, I'm ready to launch a final charge, completely exterminate these Houjin Tartars......"
The herald quickly went to report to Zheng Jinhong.
Su Manzi soon got the order to attack.
With red eyes, he spoke to the many soldiers around him.
"Brothers, follow me to kill all these post-golden tartars......"
The herald and his own soldiers did not have time to stop him, and Su Manzi jumped on his horse and charged towards the battlefield, and more than 1,000 soldiers behind him also followed......
In less than three moments, the battlefield was completely silent.
The fight lasted nearly four hours.
The Eight Banners Army was all wiped out, but the losses of the imperial army were also very large, although the statistics of the battle situation have not yet come out, but Su Manzi can see clearly with the naked eye, he led a total of 5,000 soldiers, after this tragic battle, more than half of the dead and seriously injured, so many years have passed, Su Manzi has hardly experienced such a tragic battle, the courage and tenacity of the Eight Banners Army, leaving him with a different impression from the past, although he is at an absolute disadvantage in numbers, but none of the soldiers of the Eight Banners Army retreated, Fight until the last moment.
Su Manzi was also worried in his heart, the main force of the Eight Banners Army was still waiting in Fengzhen, and there was no rush to help at such a close distance, it can be seen that Duoduo was ready to fight to the death, and Duoduo, as the boss, was ready to carry it to the end, how could the soldiers of the Eight Banners Army not work hard.
I'm afraid that an even more tragic battle is yet to come.
Sighing slightly, Su Manzi jumped on his horse and went to see coach Zheng Jinhong. (To be continued.) )
