Chapter 802 The princes who broke the game

On the battlefield of Songjin's Battle, the Ming army's chief general Hong Chengchou was held hostage by Mingguan, and two of the eight Ming army generals were killed by Mingguan. Ningyuan general Wu Sangui and Datong general Wang Pu died in a bad life.

Mingguan killed the chicken to warn the monkey, and the remaining six generals were panicked about Mingguan and did not dare to disobey Mingguan's orders. They followed Mingguan to fight to the death with the Qing army.

Mingguan personally inspires morale, and the Qing army was hit by an unprecedented counterattack by the Ming army.

Chang Yuchun personally led the Guanning Iron Cavalry to attack the Eight Banners Cavalry!

"How is it possible? How could Wu Sangui, the chief general of Guanning Iron Cavalry, break through the first line of defense!"

Huang Taiji's face turned pale when he learned that Guanning's cavalry had stepped on the Qing army's defense line.

The Ming army commander of Mingguan seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, breaking the Qing army's defense line in one fell swoop and pounced on Huang Taiji.

The Ming army's general change cannot be compared with each other, but the Qing army cannot resist it.

Mingguan doesn’t care about the consequences at all, anyway, just win!

So he simply killed the military supervisor sent by Emperor Chongzhen, killed the general of Ningyuan Wu Sangui, who advocated the escape, and Wang Pu, the general of Datong, held Hong Chengchou hostage, and adopted a frontal defeat to forcibly attack the Qing army.

Mingguan's way of breaking the deadlock was simple and crude. He believed that the Ming army's weapons were not bad, but they just lacked morale, so he led these soldiers to counterattack wildly.

The two armies fought fiercely in the trench excavated by the Qing army in the south of Jinzhou City. The Qing army's red-clothed cannons roared, and solid lead bullets penetrated a Ming army soldier, making them bloody.

A solid bullet fell next to the war horse in Mingguan, and gravel splashed.

"At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the times had changed..."

The war horses in Mingguan were frightened and finally stopped the war horses.

During the Ming and Qing Wars, the clamps, even flintlocks, and bronze cannons had become important weapons, so this battle was extremely difficult.

Fortunately, during this period, the cavalry still played an important role, and the general's attributes increased the cavalry very high. Under the cover of Ming army artillery, Mingguan led the cavalry to rush around, and forced a gap between the Qing army, and the main of the Eight Banners was killed.

"Mobilize the red-clothed cannon to bombard the protruding cavalry of the Ming army!"

Huang Taiji led Jirgalang, Ajige, Oboi and other military generals to attack Mingguan. Chang Yuchun's cavalry, Qing army's gunners ignited the fuse, and black gunpowder burned violently!

More than one hundred red-clothed cannons roared, and the solid bullet was shot out by the thrust generated by black gunpowder, falling among the Ming cavalry. From time to time, Ming army's war horses were hit and killed instantly!

The originally dense cavalry formation of the Ming army was scattered by artillery. When the cavalry around Mingguan fell, he could die in the battlefield at any time!

The battlefield where cold weapons and firearms intertwined with more cruelty, even powerful generals may be killed by artillery.

The Ming cavalry charged with rolling black smoke, and the smoke generated by the burning of black gunpowder. The Qing army used heavy arrows to break through armor, and the Ming cavalry fell on the way to charge.

If the Ming army had suppressed the Qing army some time ago, it might have been easier for Mingguan to pass, but at this time, the Qing army had the advantage, and the Ming army could only use their flesh and blood to open a breakthrough.

"Li Chengliang, conquer the artillery position of the Qing army!"

"Hong Chengchou, organize artillery and suppress the Qing army's firearms!"

Mingguan successively ordered that the Battle of Songjin was completely different from the previous cold weapon battlefield. The deterrence and suppression of artillery on the cavalry was strengthened, so it was particularly important to seize the artillery position of the Qing army.

The Ming army's artillery began to fight back, and Hong Chengchou brought a lot of bronze artillery. The two armies' artillery confronted each other, and solid bullets fell into the opposite artillery position from time to time.

Under the coercion of Ming Pass, Hong Chengchou was forced to command the Ming army's artillery troops to provide support.

"The battle between life and death in the Ming Dynasty is today, and it must be successful!"

Hong Chengchou looked at the Qing army position opposite. There were about 100,000 people fighting on both sides here, which was different from the one side of the Battle of Kunyang. The Battle of Songjin was extremely stalemate.

The Qing army was at its peak, and the Ming army was already the Ming army in the late Ming Dynasty. Mingguan mainly relied on the 40,000 elite troops he brought to break the formation. Of course, he also had to use artillery that Mingguan did not have but owned by the Ming army.

The Ming army lacked the courage to fight in close combat, used relatively safe long-range weapons, and had the power to fight.

Li Chengliang was not afraid of close combat at all because of Chang Yuchun brought by Mingguan. Chang Yuchun even rushed to the front!

A Ming cavalry rushed to the Qing army's artillery position. Li Chengliang had a suppressive effect on the Jurchen tribe and defeated the Qing cavalry that protected the artillery position!

The raised saber shook the cold light, and condescendingly, cutting over the Qing army's gunners.

The gunners lost the protection of their cavalry and basically had no ability to protect themselves, and were slaughtered by Li Chengliang's cavalry.

"This kind of firearm is really powerful..."

Li Chengliang was amazed at the power of the Qing army's red-clothed cannon.

This type of cannon is a long-sold Western ship cannon from the 16th to 17th centuries, and it is already quite powerful.

Originally, the Qing army had 60 homemade red cannons. In extremely difficult mode, the number of red cannons of the Qing army doubled, reaching a terrible number of 120.

It was precisely because of the suppression of the red cannon that the cavalry in Mingguan suffered heavy losses.

After capturing the Qing army's artillery position, Mingguan broke the deadlock, and Huang Taiji lost the weapon to suppress the Ming army. Chang Yuchun led the cavalry to assault Huang Taiji's camp.

A large number of Eight Banners cavalry were killed, and each Niulu was defeated and failed to form a system, and Huang Taiji fell into a collapse.

"retreat!"

Huang Taiji's heart was completely shaken. He did not expect that the Ming army was so crazy. After tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, and the red-clothed cannon was lost, he finally gave up the siege of Jinzhou.

The Qing army retreated like a tide, lifting the siege of Jinzhou City, and the Ming army finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"We actually won? In this case, can we still win?"

Hong Chengchou and the six surviving generals were unbelievable. After changing the main general, Mingguan's strategy was to be strong and defeat Huang Taiji. Perhaps Huang Taiji would not have expected that the Ming army would suddenly change its style.

Mingguan looked at the battlefield of Songjin's Battle, where corpses were everywhere, and he also paid a considerable price to defeat the Qing army and win.

...

During the Battle of Changping, the Zhao army repeatedly attacked the Qin army, with more than 100,000 people killed, and tens of thousands of Qin army also killed. The Zhao army never broke through the encirclement set up by Bai Qi.

Bai Qi's Qin army was extremely offensive, and the Zhao army could only defend against Bai Qi. Lao Qin led some Zhao army to attack other Qin generals and exchanged casualties with the Qin army.

After the Zhao army was besieged for 32 days, Bai Qi suddenly stopped the attack, led the Qin army to retreat, and took the initiative to give out a passage for the Zhao army.

"General, the Qin army begins to retreat, we can break out!"

Zhao Kuo was already desperate, but the Qin army suddenly gave up attacking the Zhao army, allowing Zhao Kuo to survive in a desperate situation.

"Why did Bai Qi give up attacking us? As long as he continues to surround us, we will be wiped out sooner or later?"

Zhao Kuo was puzzled by Bai Qi's behavior of withdrawing troops. He specifically found Lao Qin and wanted to ask clearly how Lao Qin could make Bai Qi withdraw his troops.

Lao Qin said slowly: "Han, Wei State has intervened."

"Han and Wei, are they enough to get the King of Qin to retreat? These two countries are already scared by Qin..."

"Han and Wei are just external factors, and there are internal factors that are enough to shake the King of Qin."

Lao Qin looked at Zhao Kuo as if he was looking at a newcomer.

Zhao Kuo still couldn't understand: "What's the reason?"

"Bai Qi can do things that the main force of Zhao State, Wang Feng and other Qin generals cannot do, but Bai Qi can do it easily. What do you think the King of Qin will have? Bai Qi has made great achievements. If any war that is crucial to Qin State is all based on Bai Qi, from then on, the Qin army soldiers only know that there is Bai Qi, but not the King of Qin."

"The King of Qin just wanted to obtain land and population from the war with Zhao. If the King of Zhao cedes land, then the King of Qin will gain benefits in order to curb Bai Qi's prestige, and then he should have withdrawn his troops."

Lao Qin was not ruthless. Anyway, King Zhao cedeed the land and lost his interests.

Zhao Kuo had already understood the purpose of Old Qin sending Jia Xu out: "This is a plan to disagree with Qin!"

Lao Qin's plan was exactly the same as that of the prime minister of Qin, Fan Sui, against Zhao. Fan Sui may not be unable to see through Jia Xu's plan, but Bai Qi's military achievements were too high. In addition, if the State of Wei knew that if the main force of Zhao was completely wiped out, the balance between the seven heroes of the Warring States Period would be broken. Han and Wei had already planned to send troops to attack the rear of Qin.

"Bai Qi will die soon, at the hands of his own people. The higher the military merits in the Battle of Changping, the closer his death period will be. This is the outcome of those who have made great achievements, especially without a substitute."

Lao Qin looked at the retreating Qin army: "No matter what, the Battle of Changping was through the alliance and alliance, and the plan of disagreement was much less difficult than repelling Bai Qi in the front..."

On a hill near Changping, the Saint-level commander Bai Qi had already noticed his miserable fate.

The King of Qin and the Prime Minister of Qin Fan Sui and the two asked Bai Qi to withdraw their troops. Zhao State ceded the cities currently occupied by the Qin army and six new cities. Qin State had basically achieved its goal.

However, Bai Qi still saw other meanings from it.

If the main force of Zhao was annihilated in the Battle of Changping, the Qin army had a certain probability of conquering Zhao Handan and directly destroying Zhao.

Bai Qi was confident of defeating the Three Jin coalition formed by Han, Wei and Zhao.

However, the King of Qin and Fan Sui were unwilling to continue fighting. They seemed to be... afraid of Bai Qi.

When a force relies too much on a general to destroy the enemy country, then the general's achievements will shock the master...

"Fan Ju asked for permission to cede territory and seek peace on the grounds of the soldiers being exhausted and eager to recuperate. It was really a missed opportunity. After the war of Changping, I was sick and resigned. Can I escape the disaster? I am afraid it is also difficult."

Bai Qi thought of his future and resented the Prime Minister Fan Sui, but when he thought that there was also the intention of the King of Qin behind him, he couldn't help but shake his head.

He fought for King Zhaoxiang of Qin for more than 30 years and made great achievements. As his military merits increased, the King of Qin could no longer give Bai Qi any rewards, which was quite dangerous at this time.
