Chapter 2631 Guizi scrolls follow one after another, misfortunes never come singly
The surging Zhou army cavalry dealt a heavy blow to the Jianzhou army who was caught off guard.
Originally, the Tao Dasheng Department, which had less than 500 people left, was about to be destroyed, but at the last moment, it was saved by the miraculous appearance of You Shilu's cavalry front.
Roaring forward, the steel knife made of fine steel in his hand was like cutting melons and vegetables, and slaughtered the Jianzhou infantry who thought they were winning. No one expected that such a huge cavalry would suddenly come out from behind , Thousands of Jianzhou infantry immediately collapsed like a storm.
The cavalry of the Zhou Army did not stop, and roared straight to the main force of the Jianzhou Army who was still ahead and hadn't recovered. What are you waiting for if you don't take advantage of his illness to kill him at this time?
Hu Erhan reacted quickly. After receiving the attack on the rear, he realized that his whereabouts this time should have been grasped by the Zhou army, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why the enemy army would fortify themselves like this, and there were endless attacks. Tactics combined with the use of new firearms directly caused himself to pay too heavy losses.
That's all, but at this time, a large-scale Zhou army suddenly attacked from the rear. This is not a trap, what else can it be?
Hu Erhan immediately ordered the cavalry that was attacking the front line to turn around and meet the cavalry of the Zhou army attacking from the rear first. He believed that with the advantage of the combat power of the Jianzhou cavalry, he could destroy the opponent's spirit and stabilize the situation. Get out of the pinch.
But he didn't expect that the number of Zhou army cavalry was so large, no less than his own cavalry. The two sides started a fierce battle on this plain, but the follow-up was more numerous and larger. The big Zhou army infantry, and all the firecrackers, there were a lot of heavy firecrackers, and the black pressure came over, immediately forming a siege situation, which immediately made Hu Erhan feel that the crisis was coming.
There are still Zhou troops blocking the way ahead, but Zhou troops are constantly encircling them from the rear, with cavalry, infantry, and artillery all available. This feeling of being attacked makes Hu Erhan feel cold.
Could it be that Zhou Jun had premeditated a conspiracy to annihilate himself here?
How do they know that they will come around from outside the side wall at this time, and they can also know the size of the army they lead?
You must know that when all the troops were assembled from the line of Zhenbei Pass and Qinghe Fort, apart from reporting the size of their army to the Great Khan, even E Yidu, He Heli, and Daishan didn't know exactly how their army was assembled. How many people were killed.
And where did Zhou Jun mobilize such a huge army to deal with him? The mobilization of the Liaodong Army can't be hidden from our own side along the Liaodong side. If it is a secret mobilization of three to five thousand people, it may be possible to say that there may be omissions, but the size of the army in front of us is definitely no less than the number of our own army. It is absolutely impossible not to be discovered by the spies and scouts of one's own side, and the Liaodong Army will never be able to draw such a large army.
As for the Gan Ning army, there are only 20,000 people, and they have long been held back on the center line. The Denglai army, Dongjiang Town, and the reinforcements from the Datong army are still in the southern battlefield. It is impossible for them to fly thousands of miles suddenly. appear here.
Then there is only one possibility, the enemy army may have come from the side of the Guangning guards, and they also bypassed the side wall before suddenly appearing on the battlefield, becoming a real surprise soldier, let yourself this surprise soldier became prey.
It's just that it's meaningless to think about these now. Hu Erhan needs to make a decision on how to face it, whether to move forward or backward?
Going forward, although the enemy army has a camp to block it, it can be seen that the number of troops is insufficient, but the defensive line they set up is too targeted, and it will definitely pay a considerable price if they want to break through.
Backwards, the number of Zhou's army has exceeded his own, and it is still a new force. Hu Erhan is not sure that he can resist it.
It can be said that there is a dilemma.
But now Hu Erhan can't allow Hu Erhan to think too much, if he doesn't make a decision, it will be the result of annihilation of the whole army.
"Order all the cavalry to press up and hold back the cavalry of the Zhou army, Sajiala, you lead your troops to break through from the small camp on the right, at all costs, I will let Feiguli cooperate with you, and count as much as you can rush out, Immediately report to the police after rushing out,..."
Hu Erhan can be regarded as a battle-tested veteran, and after a little weighing, he made a decision. The current plan is to completely sacrifice all the cavalry to hold back the attacking Zhou army from the rear, and then concentrate the remaining troops to attack the corner of the front and break through the battle line. , It counts as much as you can escape.
He also wanted to inform Fei Yingdong and Dahan immediately of the situation, especially Fei Yingdong. Once his side was defeated, this Zhou army with as many as 10,000 to 20,000 people would rush towards Fei Yingdong. This side will immediately collapse, or even be completely annihilated. No one can withstand the surprise attack of a new force of 10,000 to 20,000 people at this time.
This sudden change in the battle situation made everyone dumbfounded. No one expected that the whole battle situation would turn into such a scene, not even Feng Ziying, the designer, expected it.
The battle on the western front lasted until night. Only then did Hu Erhan rely on the darkness and charge regardless of losses to forcefully break through from the corner guarded by Heiyunlong, but what made Hu Erhan cry was the 15,000 yuan he brought. Out of the thousand-man army, only less than 3,000 were able to escape, and the remaining 10,000 were all suppressed by the Zhou army in this battle.
After Fei Yingdong received the news, he had no time to report to Nurhachi on the center line, nor did he care about the danger of collapse caused by the emergency retreat. He immediately led his troops to retreat, and at the same time informed Nurhachi of the situation here.
Naturally, Zhu Mei and He Kegang couldn't let them evacuate easily, and the main force of You Shilu's cavalry had already arrived at the battlefield. Breaking one's wrists to survive is one way to escape from the battlefield by taking advantage of the darkness.
Although Fei Yingdong led his troops to escape, You Shilu did not dare to let him escape easily, and he chased after him non-stop, forcing Fei Yingdong to set up an ambush along the road or continue to stay behind to block the enemy, in order to retreat to Wujing The battalion stabilized the situation.
But in the face of Zhou's army rushing like wolves and tigers, Fei Yingdong also realized that Zhou's army had been preparing for this battle for a long time, and he wanted to completely defeat Jianzhou and wipe out the main force of Jianzhou to the greatest extent, so he dared not Retreat too hard to prevent direct impact on the battle situation on the center line, and need to stick to the Changyong Fort for a period of time, so that Nurhachi on the center line can get the news and respond in time.
It was three hours later when Nurhachi and He Heli received the news from the western front.
It was already dark, and Nurhachi was lying on the bed dizzy for a while.
Originally, for this battle, he also painstakingly planned to withdraw the troops left behind and go to the Liaohe River outside the side wall to do this dangerously. His idea was to defeat the Zhou army on the western front in one fell swoop, and then join forces to fight a big victory on the central line. , and even did not hesitate to let Daishan and others forcefully drag Denglai, Dongjiang and Datong troops on the southern front with inferior forces.
This kind of time that puts the southern front at an absolute disadvantage cannot be too long, so he is also eager to complete this battle. He did not expect that the situation he had painstakingly designed was taken advantage of by the opponent, and instead became his own self-inflicted trap. Now the western front has collapsed , Fei Yingdong is trying his best to hold back the opponent, but Nurhachi probably will not be able to do so. In other words, Zhou Jun may be chasing here non-stop now, and he needs to make up his mind immediately.
It is necessary to withdraw, but how? Liu Dongyang was staring at the opposite side. It was not so easy to get out easily, and he had to leave a sufficient force to stop the enemy.
"He Heli, Fei Yingdong can't protect himself, and it's impossible to stop Zhou Jun. We have to leave now, and we have to leave immediately tonight, but we must leave a large army to stop the enemy. I want Chu Ying and Mang Gurtai each led a group to stay, Chu Ying faced the Zhou army coming from the west, and Mang Gurtai stayed behind to deal with Liu Dongyang's army in the front,..."
He Heli was surprised, "Khan, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them..."
"I know, but my Nurhachi's son can only fight against the wind and run away when he is in danger?" Nurhachi propped one hand on the bed, sat up with force, gritted his teeth to try to wake up as much as possible, " They will definitely not be able to withstand it, but as long as they can withstand it for a while, they can choose an opportunity to retreat, our Jianzhou cavalry, the Zhou army is not an opponent, the terrain here is flat, as long as you want to retreat, you can still escape."
He Heli knew that Nurhachi had made up his mind, and it was useless to persuade him, so he took a deep breath, "Khan, I'm afraid the southern Daishan side should make arrangements immediately, otherwise they will be bitten by the Zhou army as soon as our side retreats." , Zhou's army is heading south, and they are in danger of being wiped out."
Nurhachi held his forehead in pain, "Why don't I know? But they can still retreat now, and we have to persist for a day or two. Let's retreat, instead of going to Shenyang, go directly to Tieling..."
He Heli was taken aback, "Khan, give up Shenyang directly?"
"Shenyang City is too big, our Jianzhou army is not stable now, there are too many Han people in the city, we can't defend at all, Tieling Weicheng is small, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it can buy us some time, after this battle, only Afraid of Tieling and Anlezhou, we have to give up, but giving up also needs to be done according to the rhythm, we gain time,..."
Seeing that Nurhachi was so calm, He Heli felt relieved and nodded: "If Shenyang doesn't defend, go directly to Tieling. We can buy some time and dispatch cavalry to harass the Zhou army's rear and logistics, and delay their advance as much as possible. It can also slow us down a bit,…”
Before the words finished, hurried footsteps came from outside the tent, He Heli frowned, and before he had time to go out to stop him, someone had already entered, "Big sweat, big forehead, something is wrong..."
