【Chapter 706】Is the white army desperate?
The white-clothed army is at a loss?
After a long journey and a thousand miles away, Fuzhou Wei, Yangguan Fort, Xu Xingxia and others were able to pause and have a full rest. The transport ship that had been anchored on the shore hurriedly sent people to pick up all the wounded soldiers of the White-Clothed Army, and at the same time, they sent a large amount of ammunition and other supplies to the White-Clothed Army. With the transport ship, there were several doctors and chefs. It seemed that Xu Xingxia was preparing to stay in Yangguan Fort for a while.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Xu Xingxia is indeed planning to stay in Yangguan Fort for a while. He wants to fight with Jianlu here. This time he personally led his army to the land of Liaodong. Although there were not many troops around him, only 300 people. However, he also wanted to leave the deepest impression on Jianlu. Or, it was to leave the deepest hatred for Jianlu. He wanted to attract Nurhaci's gaze to himself.[]
Yangguan Fort is a fortress on the southern coast of Fuzhou Wei. It was built in the early days of Wanli. The main task was to defend against pirate attacks. The Ming army, which originally had 300 people, later Jianlu went south and dispersed the Ming army here, and Yangguan Fort was abandoned. However, Jianlu had too few troops and had no time or energy to destroy Yangguan Fort. As a result, the city walls and other defense equipment and facilities here were basically intact. Even the barracks of the military team could continue to be used after a little cleaning.
Xu Xingxia is waiting for Amin's arrival here. The White-Clothed Army and Jianlu always have to do a big battle. Jianlu wants to plunder Liaodong, and the White-Clothed Army wants to recover Liaodong. This is destined to have the most fierce collision, without any room for maneuver. Yangguan Fort is the battlefield that Xu Xingxia chose. If it is in the plains and wilderness outside, Xu Xingxia has too few people to confront Jianlu directly. However, Yangguan Fortress is completely different. With the cover of the city walls, Jianlu's cavalry will not have the chance to play. This is the most beneficial to the White-Clothed Army.
"Sir, is this place a little bit worn?"
Mao Wenlong and others all felt obviously uneasy. They expressed their feelings to Xu Xingxia uneasy. To be honest, the walls of Yangguan Fort are not particularly strong. The shortest place is less than two meters, and the thinnest place is even less than one meters. Such a fortress seems a bit difficult to face the attack of Jianlu's thousands of troops. Jianlu's bare hands attack ability is actually very strong against these ungrade fortresses.
He actually didn't know that Xu Xingxia had always considered choosing the Yangguan Fort. Amin was not stupid and he wouldn't do too obvious stupid things.
For example, he would never smash the eggs on the stone. If the white-clothed army occupied too strongly, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Amin would definitely not launch an attack. Only by choosing some places that Amin felt that as long as he worked hard, He Min would have the chance to be fooled.
For the White-Clothed Army, it is not a problem that the walls of Yangguan Fort are a bit thin. As long as the walls of Yangguan Fort can block the attack of the cavalry. As long as the advantages of the large cavalry force of Jianlu cannot be exerted, infantry and white-Clothed Army must be used to fight against the White-Clothed Army, Xu Xingxia's goal is to achieve it. With the cover of the city wall and the Han-style invasion gun in hand, what ability does Amin have to take down Yangguan Fort? He will definitely be bleeding from the head at Yangguan Fort.
The White-clothed Army wanted to consume the Jianlu's vitality as much as possible in such a place. The biggest fatal thing about Jianlu is that it has too many people, one less death, and one less death. Their Niulu is actually not many, and one less death is deducted if one is destroyed. It seems that the Blue Flag of the Inlaid Blue Flag, all the Inlaid Blue Flag Niulu are at most less than forty. And there are less than twenty who are under direct command of Amin. It is not very difficult to eliminate the twenty Niulu Jianlu for a period of time.
The basic strategy of the White-Clothed Army in Liaodong is to not care about the gains and losses of a city and a place. As long as the Jianlu’s live power is consumed as much as possible. The White-Clothed Army can withstand the losses of war, but the Jianlu cannot withstand it. When the casualties of the Jianlu reach the level of Danding, they must find a way to withdraw from the battle.
"Da da da da!"
The dense sound of horse hooves comes
This is Amin's pursuer, and he finally arrived.
Mao Wenlong and others felt something was wrong when they saw Chentou.
This time, Amin definitely came out in full swing. Judging from the dust raised by the horse's hooves, there were at least three or four thousand Jianlu who came to Yangguan Fort this time. Amin's subordinates were just a few people. However, not long after, more Jianlu appeared behind the large team of Jianlu. Their flags were different from the Inlaid Blue Flag. Carefully distinguished, there were Inlaid White Flag and Inlaid Red Flag. From this, it was judged that in addition to Amin's Inlaid Blue Flag Jianlu, there were also Jianlu who came to find trouble with the White-clouded Blue Flag Jianlu.
These two flags suffered a great loss when the White-Clothed Army went south. The Inlaid White Banner was killed and injured by the White-Clothed Army in the Gaizhou Guard, and the Inlaid Red Banner was also killed and injured by the White-Clothed Army in the Fuzhou Guard. With the temper of Jianlu, they must be revenge. The owners of the Inlaid White Banner and the Inlaid Red Banner are even more respectful than Amin!
Indeed, Amin joined forces with the Inlaid White Flag and the Inlaid Red Flag to find trouble for Xu Xingxia. The southern part of Liaodong area was too large, and his 3,000 people were placed here, as if a drop of water was sprinkled into the desert and disappeared soon. It turns out that to deal with the White Flag Army, you must concentrate enough superior forces. At least three Niulu or more must be concentrated to take action. If the Jin army itself has too few troops, it will be easy to exploit loopholes for the White Flag Army.
"Master Beile, the White-Clothed Army is right in front of the Yangguan Fort!" The scout captain came up and reported to Amin. It has been quite difficult for him, the scout captain. In order to capture the whereabouts of the White-Clothed Army, he was going crazy. Amin could cut off his head at any time. Fortunately, the White-Clothed Army finally stopped at the Yangguan Fort.
Amin looked at the Sheep Official Castle and said cautiously: "Are you sure they are all there?"
The captain of the scout hurriedly said, "Yes, it's all there. There is a definite information that Xu Xingxia is here and Eleventh Beile is here. Master Beile, it's certain that they are at a loss. They can only enter the Yangguan Fort and avoid our attack."
Amin's face suddenly became gloomy and she didn't say a word.
If he had caught Xu Xingxia somewhere else, he would have been very happy. However, Amin was not happy at all when he caught Xu Xingxia in Yangguan Fort. Because he could see at a glance that Yangguan Fort was a bit weird. Intuition told him that this Yangguan Fort must not be so easy to deal with.
There must be his reason for Xu Xingxia to occupy this place. If he wants to kill Xu Xingxia, he is afraid he will have to pay a heavy price.
If it is not necessary, Jianlu is unwilling to attack the toughest. The most fundamental purpose of Jianlu coming to Liaodong is to plunder resources and plunder wealth. There is a fundamental cost-effective problem here. Perhaps the senior managers of Jianlu do not know how to use mathematics to calculate cost-effectiveness, but they know very clearly that attacking will kill people and the gain will not be worth the cost. Unless it is a big city with a large population and wealth, Jianlu will take the initiative to attack the toughest. It seems that in places like Yangguan Fort, Jianlu does not need to sacrifice human lives. It is not worth it at all!
However, that was under normal circumstances. Now, obviously in abnormal circumstances. Xu Xingxia was in Yangguan Fortress, and Babuhai was also in Yangguan Fortress, which was enough to make Amin make a decision without thinking. Even if it might cost a little heavy price, Amin had no choice. He had to be responsible for his mistakes.
"Luge, go up and see what happened!" Amin said with a stern face.
"I understand!" A fierce Jurchen man quickly appeared in front of Amin.
Ruge is an excellent riding archer, and he also has powerful fighting skills. He is one of the five Jiashan Ezhen under Amin. Of course, he is not the best one. Amin means that he wants Ruge to go up and explore the way and touch the reality of the White-Clothed Army. Amin knows that this Sheep Official Fort will not be easy to deal with. However, Amin has no idea how powerful the White-Clothed Army is. He has to see it with his own eyes before he can make a judgment.
Amin always felt that Xu Xingxia was hiding in the Yangguan Fort, and she would definitely not be desperate. In such a large place in southern Liaoning, he still had a lot of space to move around, so he had no need to hide in this small Yangguan Fort. This kid must have taken the initiative to hide in. Therefore, he could think with his heels that it would not be so easy for him to take down this Yangguan Fort. The good show is still behind.
However, even if it is very difficult, Amin must try it. Because he has no other choice. If he wants to kill Xu Xingxia and rescue Babuhai, he must take down the Sheep Official Fort. If he cannot do this, neither of his goals will be possible.
"superior!"
Ruger waved his waist and shouted at his subordinates.
After half an hour of preparation, the Jin army began the first wave of attacks.
Of course, Ruge could not have sent all five Niulus at once. The first time he dispatched was only two Niulus, with a total force of only about four hundred. They were all infantry archers. The Yangguan Fort has a city wall, and the cavalry had no effect, so they could only dispatch infantry. The infantry archers of the Great Jin Army were their most basic combat subjects. On the battlefield, their combat power was still very strong. All the Ming troops in the Liaodong region had suffered great losses.
"shot!"
"Free shooting!"
Xu Xingxia issued an order with a relaxed expression.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Scattered gunfires sounded.
