Chapter 16: Forced Breakthrough
If you can't figure it out, you don't want to, one force will drop ten, anyway, Dolgon and others think that they have an absolute advantage in strength, plus the Houjin army under their command is brave, they are not afraid of this Yu family army at all, they just let go of the fall, as long as the Yu family army does not give way, then they will simply take this Yu family army and pull it down, if they don't get it, they can still take the sheep by hand, and then catch 10,000 strong slaves back as coats, and then fish a batch of ordnance back, it would be better!
So Dolgon ordered Du Du to be the vanguard, led 20,000 elite soldiers, and rushed forward to Tianjin Wei to open the passage for the follow-up main force and the encircled slave team.
After Du Du received the order, he immediately gathered his soldiers and horses, and Hu Biaobiao rushed towards Tianjin Wei.
As the Qing army approached Tianjin, their rangers began to encounter some unidentified enemy scouts, and the scouts on both sides immediately started a contest with each other.
There were dozens of skirmishes between the scouts of the two sides, and it was only at this time that the rangers of the Jiannu found that their opponents were not easy to deal with.
Daming's night is not collected to say that they are all veteran oils, with solid kung fu at hand, good at riding and shooting, speaking of which are the elite of the Ming army, but for so many years, the Tartar rangers have really not been afraid of them, and they have always won more and lost less than they have repeatedly fought each other.
But this time they met these scouts of the Yu family army, they found that things were not as simple as they thought, these scouts of the Yu family army were actually quite capable of fighting, not only were they also good at riding and shooting, but they also had a very sharp short pipe handcuff at hand, which could actually kill people one or twenty steps away.
In addition, the scouts of the Yu family army are also very good at ambushing, they don't know why, they can always find the Tartar rangers in advance, and use a musket with a long range, two or three hundred steps away, to ambush the scouts of Jiannu, and often can be fatal with one blow, at least under the random gun, the Jiannu scouts of the squad can be beaten out of combat effectiveness.
So the two sides fought, it was actually the scouts of the Yu family army who took a big advantage, and even if the scouts of the occasional Jiannu took advantage, it was difficult to catch the prisoners, and the scouts of the Yu family army were all very fierce, as if they had been brainwashed, even if they were at a disadvantage, they would often fight to the death, and in the end they would basically fight to the death.
As a result, Jiannu was never able to catch a few scouts of the Yu army, so he could not understand the details of the family army.
This situation made Du Du feel a little inexplicably nervous, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't pay enough attention to it, and still led more than 10,000 infantry troops of 8,000 cavalry and drove towards Tianjin Wei.
When Du Du led his troops to Tianjin Wei, he looked up from a distance, and the army had blocked their way, and this Yujia army had already built a fortification on both sides of the canal, one in front of which was a horse rejection, then a trench, and on the other side of the trench, a low wall of about six feet.
This line of defense completely cut off the way to the north and lay in front of the Jiannu army.
Du Du frowned, to say that this line of defense is not strong, for them, the fortified cities that are much stronger than this have been broken by them a lot, this time the Jiannu army went south, and even broke dozens of state capitals and counties in the Ming Dynasty, what kind of fortified cities have they not encountered? So this seemingly impregnable line of defense doesn't seem to be anything.
But Du Du still didn't want to fight, thinking that if he could intimidate and let this group of Yu Jiajun get out of the way and let them pass, then it would be best not to fight this battle.
So Du Du ordered to send a Han army to run for him, go to the other party's main general to discuss, and let them get out of the way, then today's matter is settled, and the two sides can be safe and sound, and each goes its own way.
However, the Han soldiers he sent to negotiate had just arrived in front of the enemy formation, and they were immediately driven back, although the other party was very disciplined and did not cut the two armies in front of the formation, but they also quite unceremoniously and categorically rejected Du Du's request.
Guarding here is the seventh brigade of the Yu family army, the brigade commander is named Yu Zhenshan, only in his early thirties, but in the family army, it is an absolute old qualification, he followed his brother to join the sea wolf in his teens, at that time Yu Xiaotian has not accepted the appeasement, but just occupied Taiwan's Tamsui area not long ago, his brother entered the sea wolf and went to the navy, until he mixed into the captain's position, but when he went south a few years ago, he died in the naval battle of Daya Bay.
And Yu Zhenshan was recruited into the army division, initially just a musketeer, but this Yu Zhenshan was studious and clever, and was gradually discovered, and later entered the army martial arts hall for further study and became an officer.
Over the years, Yu Zhenshan has been very diligent, from a small trainee officer, he has been promoted step by step, until now he has become a brigade commander, and has become one of the few senior officers in the Yu family army.
This time, he was named by Yu Xiaotian and led the 7th Brigade under his command to the west bank of the canal to set up defenses, cutting off the way of the Jiannu army from the west bank of the canal to Guò Tianjinwei.
And Du Du brought his troops over this time, just on the west bank of the canal and advanced towards Tianjin Wei, so he ran into the defense line of the Seventh Brigade head-on.
Yu Zhenshan has been building a defensive line here for several days, and has been waiting for the arrival of Jiannu, and now the Jiannu army has finally appeared in front of their eyes, Yu Zhenshan and the generals of the Yu family under his command are both nervous and excited, afraid that the time will not come, because as early as a few years ago, the sea wolf side had fought with Jiannu in the area of Fort Arthur, and had already tested the strength of Jiannu at that time.
Every battle experienced by the sea wolf will be recorded in detail afterwards, sorted into battle examples, and summarize the perceptions and experiences of the participants, as well as the gains and losses of the battle, and then send them to the officers above the company commander of the army for reference.
Therefore, although Yu Zhenshan has not yet met Jiannu, he has also learned about Jiannu's actual combat power through the battle examples at that time.
Don't look at the Jiannu army in the eyes of the Ming officers and soldiers, it is quite fierce, but when facing the sea wolf, it is just as vulnerable.
After all, according to the terms of weapons and equipment, the weapons and equipment of the Yu family army are more advanced than those of Jiannu for hundreds of years or even two hundred years, and the sea wolf has the most powerful firepower output ability in the world so far, coupled with the organizational discipline of the sea wolf, not to mention that the official army of the Ming Dynasty cannot be compared, even if it is a more tightly organized Jiannu, it is also far from being able to reach the organizational discipline of the nearly modern army of the Yu family army.
So don't look at Jiannu's rampant, the generals of the Yu family army really don't scare them, after more than ten years, almost all the officers of the Yu family army have experienced a hundred battles, what enemy has not seen? So don't look at how powerful the Jiannu Army is uploaded on the market, but the generals of the Yu family army have already erected a belief in their hearts that their Yu family army is unparalleled in the world, and they are really not afraid of any soldiers and horses in this world.
Today, Du Du sent someone over and proposed to ask the Yu family army to get out of the way and let them return to the Guanwai army, so that the two sides could be at peace, otherwise Du Du claimed that he would take the Jiannu elite soldiers under his command to level the Yu family army here.
For Du Du's threat, Yu Zhenshan can be said to scoff at it, and he didn't take it to heart at all, and immediately a big-eared scraper beat the traitor who came over to the so-called negotiation in a circle, and fell to the ground, Yu Zhenshan stepped on this guy's face, twisted it vigorously and scolded:
"Go back and tell your master, if you want Lao Tzu to make way, let Du Du Xiao'er obediently leave the goods and people and livestock that entered the customs this time, and Lao Tzu may let you go when he is happy!" But if you want to talk empty and have white teeth, let Lao Tzu let you go as soon as you say this, and let your master pee on his own ugly face, whether he is worthy or not!
Get lost! Lao Tzu thinks you'll get dirty when you kill you, you're fucking Han Chinese, and you shamelessly went to Jiannu Tartar to be a dog!
If you are not convinced for a while, you will be the first to rush over, Lao Tzu will let you see the power of our Yu Jiajun! Let you also die convincingly! As soon as the words fell, Yu Zhenshan flew up and kicked this guy out of the distance, almost kicking this guy to death on the spot.
This guy finally got up, limped back to the main formation, and reported to Du Du, and the Mongolian horse he rode over was also laughed at by Yu Zhenshan on the spot, and this guy could only run back on two legs.
Du Du saw that the subordinates sent by the other party were beaten all over his face with blood, half of his face was broken, red and swollen, after listening to his reply, he was suddenly angry enough, and the order went down, and the whole army was ready to attack and step on this group of Yu Jiajun who were using their mantis arms as a car.
The battle between the two sides began before noon, Du Du first sent two thousand cavalry to rush over and tentatively attack the defense line of the Yu family army, but the two thousand cavalry had just rushed to the front of the defense line of the Yu family army less than two hundred steps, and the Yu family army fired a flurry of guns, the cannon roared, and began to shoot fiercely at the Jiannu cavalry.
Originally, Jiannu thought that this group of Yu Jiajun was not enough, and they began to release birds and guns so far away, which could not cause much damage to them at all, and they couldn't even hit them, so they continued to roar and urge the horses, and continued to accelerate towards the Yu family army line.
But then they found that things were not as simple as they thought, as soon as the opponent's cannon rang out, the soldiers in the front row of Jiannu's cavalry were immediately overturned, and as a result, the cavalry formation of Jiannu's charge began to be chaotic in an instant.
But Jiannu is Jiannu after all, this time they entered the customs smoothly, rarely met opponents, although they were suddenly hit by such a blow, but did not collapse immediately, the follow-up cavalry actually crossed the overturned soldiers and horses in front, and continued to charge towards the front of the Yujia army.
Two hundred steps was really a tragic distance for Jiannu, they didn't have any weapons at hand that could reach each other, so they could only stiffen their necks.
