Chapter 795: The Slaves of the Daming Tribulation Stained the Flags with Blood (32)

The Qing Dynasty Zhengbai Banner Bele Dorgon led his 36,000 combat soldiers and more than 100,000 war horses and pack horses suddenly appeared behind the Tianxiong Camp. The Qiheng team of the Ponu Army had a day away from the Tianxiong Camp. Luo Tian monitored the Enanghong Banner to set off in advance, which caused a gap between the two armies. More than 30,000 cavalrymen of the Zhengbai Banner happened to pass through this gap and form a clamping attack against the Luotianxiong Camp. The head general of the Tianxiong Camp who was attacked by the Enanghong Banner and the Zhengbai Banner was not panicked at this moment. Earlier, he followed General Zhang Zhang in the Battle of Baishan, and his situation was much more dangerous than it is now. At that time, the thirteen-year-old Marshal Zhang was not afraid of millions of strong enemies. As long as Luo Tian entangled the two enemy troops with the Tianxiong Banner today, the final victory would definitely belong to the Ponu Army.

The current situation is that the enemy dare not fight decisively, and it is difficult to fight ambush in plains. This also makes Luo Tian, ​​who is not afraid of tigers, ignores the threat of the white flag behind the side and stares at the red flag. Luo Tian's attitude of the enemy's unchanging change is also a kind of belief and he is very confident to defeat 80,000 female cavalry with 16,000 combat soldiers. Tianxiong Camp is not the first-class main force in the Possess Army, but under the leadership of the former chief general Lu Xiangsheng, the Tianxiong Camp has been trained hard so that they can rank behind the personal guard camp in battlefield skills. This strong army has never had the chance to show their skills. Luo Tian wants to lead Tianxiong Camp to touch the first-class main force of the Qing Dynasty.

Under this kind of attacking battlefield situation, the two main forces of the Qing Dynasty clearly had an excellent opportunity to encircle and annihilate the Tianxiong Camp of the Ponu Army, but none of the two leading soldiers took the initiative to attack. It was not that they did not want to fight this battle, but that they had too many concerns. The two main cavalry of the Qing Dynasty now became an isolated army in the heart of the Ming Dynasty Zhili, and besieging the Tianxiong Camp of the Ponu Army without foreign aid was seeking death. They all knew that the Ponu Army was not the Ming army. If they could not defeat the Tianxiong Camp of the Ponu Army within one day, they would be surrounded by the reinforcements of the Ponu Army again in just two days. Beile Yuetuo of the Inlaid Red Flag speculated that the Tianxiong Camp of the Ponu Army was here to follow and monitor the Inlaid Red Flag, otherwise the Tianxiong Camp would not be out of touch with the main force.

From the heart, the Beile Yuetuo of the Enneagram wanted to fight. Since he judged that the Tianxiong Camp was here to monitor the Yinghongqi, Yuetuo once again mobilized his troops to set out to Qingxian County, Hejian Prefecture. Yuetuo did this to open the distance between the Tianxiong Camp and the main force of the Po Nu Army, and see if he could find an opportunity to separate the Tianxiong Camp and then defeat them one by one. So the Enneagram stayed in Qingxian County for less than a day, and then drove the camp to Hejian Prefecture along the canal towards Xingji. The enemy moved us and Luo Tian immediately led the Tianxiong Camp to follow. However, the Enneagram's Red Flag also moved, and Dorgon led the Zhengbai Banner to leave Baiyangdian and marched towards Ansu (today's Xushui).

Earlier, Dorgon judged that the Pou Nu Army following the Tianxiong Camp would either continue to pursue the Enangu Red Flag or block the Zhengbai Banner. The Zhengbai Banner advanced to Ansu, because Dorgon wanted to use the Zhengbai Banner to see who the Pou Nu Army Qiheng, who was following the Tianxiong Camp, was going to pursue. For this reason, Dorgon sent a large number of scouts and cavalrymen of the Zhengbai Banner to observe the direction of the movement of the Qiheng tribe. Qiheng tribe ignored the direction of the Zhengbai Banner march, and he wanted to ensure that Luo Tiantian Xiong camp would not have any attacks in the Northern Tartars again. The reason why Qiheng dared to let go of the Zhengbai Banner was mainly because there was a defense line composed of the main force of the Pou Nu Army behind.

The Zhengbai Banner of the Qing Dynasty was lucky enough to escape the first wave of front-line troops of the Po Slave Army. Just as they continued north along the official road, the Zhengbai Banner met the real opponent in Zhuozhou, the Li Chen army Cheetah Camp. The Li Chen army Cheetah Camp is a first-class strong army in the Po Slave Army. The characteristic of the 18,000 cavalry is that whenever the prey is found, it will first tear off a piece of the enemy's flesh with lightning speed, and then launch multiple attacks with the injured prey until the opponent is killed. The number of scouts of the Cheetah Camp of the Li family is second only to the Eagle Camp of the Zhang Li family, and the scouts of the team have five thousand people. When the scouts of the Cheetah Camp discovered the Zhengbai Banner patrol and scouts, close combat was inevitable.

The scouts of the Cheetah Camp were basically patrolling the plains. The lesson came from their painful experience of being ambushed by the Mongols on Kent Mountain. The scouts of the Cheetah Camp were usually three to five miles apart when patrolling the plains. They were thirteen people and one column marching, with each troop twenty feet apart. This military formation, which was tested on the grasslands, was the standard scouts of the Cheetah Camp. The scouts were at the forefront of the battlefield all year round. They were naturally sensitive to danger, and any movement would touch the nervous nerves of the scouts. The scouts of the Po Nu Army and the scouts of the Zhengbai Banner were unexpectedly encountered in Liujiazhuang, south of Zhuozhou.

Liujiazhuang, which is already a ruin, is not big, but only a small village of about one hundred households. When patrolling the scouts of the Pou Nu Army, they often adopt a thick formation in the middle of the two wings. The seemingly scattered and irrelevant military formations can quickly get support from other brother scouts when encountering the enemy. A shabby Ming people saw the black military flag running from a hidden place and pointed to Liujiazhuang three miles away and said that dozens of Jiannu were hiding in the village last night. The reputation of the Pou Nu Army's strict military discipline will never harm the people spread throughout the Ming Dynasty. The people of Zhili of the Ming Dynasty, who were harmed by Jiannu, were never afraid of the Pou Nu Army, which also made the Pou Nu Army fighting in Zhili as if in their hometown.

After learning the news, the Cheetah Camp led the Qianzong Wang Dahe immediately ordered the surround of Liujiazhuang. He took out ten silver coins and a pack of dry food to send it to the people who reported the news. The people who reported the news only collected dry food but did not ask for silver coins. He only hoped that the Pou Nu Army would destroy the Jiannu Tatars to avenge him. More than 1,000 scouts of the Pou Nu Army surrounded the village, and after receiving the news, several other scouts also sent people to guard Wang Dahe's side. What the Pou Nu Army did not expect was that shortly after learning about the Pou Nu Army killing the Jiannu Tatars, thousands of people who came out from somewhere were holding wooden sticks and farm tools to help the Pou Nu Army. Faced with this unprecedented situation, the Thousand General King Dahetou was over two rounds.

The scouts of the Pou Nu Army were one and three horses. The huge sound of horse hooves had already alarmed the scouts of Zhengbai Banner in Liujiazhuang. Niu Lue Zhenli Lafeng A (Juchen, long-lived man) led the team immediately abandoned his bags and got on the horse to meet the enemy. He took the three hundred Zhengbai Scouts and ran out of the south end of the village. His face was once bloodthirsty and cruel, and his face was instantly scared and bloodless. They were completely surrounded by the Pou Nu Army. Li Lafeng A was also a veteran of the battlefield. He was very familiar with the Pou Nu Army's battle flag. He immediately recognized that he had never dealt with the Pou Nu Army. In any case, the Pou Nu Army had no weak brigade and had formed a consensus among the Qing Dynasty soldiers. The number of their scouts was far higher than that of theirs. It was very difficult to break through the siege.

In particular, the Pou Nu Army had already dismounted the army and arranged the musket army formation, and the Zhengbai Banner scouts had almost no chance of winning. Since they could not break through immediately, Lilafenga took the Zhengbai Banner scouts back to the village. They wanted to use the dilapidated houses in the village to carry out the final resistance for the fortress. Although the Pou Nu Army did not like fighting street battles, it was a desire for every Pou Nu Army soldier. The Pou Nu Army inspector always quits when calculating military merits, but the Jurchen Taurus heads and military merits never be deducted. Because the Pou Nu Army regulations have special and detailed regulations on the Jurchen Taurus heads and military merits, this also makes the Pou Nu Army soldiers like to fight against Jiannu the most.

The scouts of Zhengbai Banner arrived in Liujiazhuang earlier than the Ponu Army. They believed that they were very familiar with the terrain of the village. Among the people who helped fight, there were the people who escaped from Liujiazhuang. Their familiarity with their homes was incomparable to the Jiannu Tartars. The Thousand General of the Ponu Army, Dahe, ordered the 1,300 Ponu Army to attack Liujiazhuang in four directions, and there were more than ten young and strong people from Liujiazhuang who came to lead the way for the Ponu Army. The Ponu Army would not take risks when fighting, so they took out dry food for these people and let them follow the Ponu Army to give guidance. The Ming people were very simple and used to seeing the cruel and shameless official army than Jiannu. The Ming official army ran faster than anyone before Jiannu came, and did not forget to rob the people and harm women while running away.

Although the soldiers of the Pou Army were well-equipped and fierce, their eyes were always so gentle when they looked at the people. People's eyes would not lie. Although Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Army, had a bad reputation, the people felt their sincerity from the Pou Army's unfair behavior. With the help of the people of Liujiazhuang, the Pou Army's search and attack was very fast. They blocked more than 300 scouts of the Zhengbai Banner in a very short time to the two connected courtyards in the west of the village. The flying arrows indicate that Jiannu is making the final resistance.

When the people of Liujiazhuang learned that the Pou Nu Army needed to attack Jiannu from a high place, they summoned their neighbors to strengthen the damaged roof forty feet away from the Tartars. The scouts of Zhengbai Banner were blocked by the wall and could not see the opponent's movements. They could only judge the place where the Pou Nu Army gathered by sound. The Niu Lue Zhenli Lafenga of Zhengbai Banner sent several scouts to climb onto the rotten roof. These observation scouts were quickly shot by the lead bullets of the Pou Nu Army's muskets. The speed of the scouts of Zhengbai Banner shooting wolf-toothed arrows was accelerating. The people who built the roof of our Pou Nu Army had wounded. The soldiers of the Cheetah Battalion used shields to protect the people from being hurt by the enemy's arrows, while treating the injured people in the rear.

Soon, three three feet high in the west, south, and east, but looking down at the sturdy roof of the Zhengbai Banner hidden place, the construction of these commanding heights was of course shot by the scouts of Zhengbai Banner. The Powder Army was no longer worried about the enemy arrows. The Wolf-Tooth Arrows shot by the Jurchens could not penetrate the shields in their hands. Although the Powder Army would be smashed by the huge power of the Wolf-Tooth Arrow, the doomsday of the Zhengbai Banner Scouts came after dozens of people gradually occupied the commanding heights. The confrontation between the muskets and the bows and arrows is a duel between the peak of cold weapons and the primary firearms. As Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Powder Army, said, the progress of the times and anything that blocks the progress will be submerged by the long river of history. In this duel, the scouts of Zhengbai Banner were gradually submerged by the lead bullets shot from the muskets. (To be continued)
