Three days later, the special battalion had sent back information. Abatai, the clearing force led by Yangguli, had entered the Xuanfu Town East Road next to them, burned and looted, and one of them had entered. Within Zhenluwei, it is coming towards Zhenkoubao!
Moreover, there are quite a few people in this group. It is led by a Jialai Zhangjing (with 1500 soldiers). According to the military configuration of the Tarzi, the five cattle records are compiled into one Jiala, and Jialaxing is all the way. , The rule of war, now it seems to be the case.
After listening to this information, Yang Shanlu nodded. It seems that his method of concentrating troops is still correct. 1,000 people to 1,500 people, so that there is not much difference, and it can be a battle!
Only one day later, after Yang Shanlu received the information from the special camp again, he was taken aback... Damn, Gou Danzi is still as arrogant as ever! But in this case, if I don't teach you a lesson, I'm really sorry for this opportunity!
Yang Shanlu immediately ordered that all the officers above the general banner came to discuss matters.
When these officers rushed to the Qianhu official hall, there were a total of 20 or 30 people, Yang Shanlu began to inform them of the latest information: "Everyone, according to the accurate information, now there are only Qing soldiers coming towards our town. One Niu Lu (300 clearing soldiers), the remaining four Niu Lu, have been scattered in the Zhenluwei territory to attack."
"What? Only one Niu Lu came here? This is a great thing!"
"Yeah, yeah, this dog is crazy enough, shouldn't that give him a tough lesson?"
"That's right, with the deep ditch and heavy walls of Zhenkou Fort, he will definitely break his teeth!"
Everyone is excited now, this is also very obvious, a guy came to Jialai Zhangjing, indeed the pressure is not small, but now there is only one Niu Lu, which is sorry, after all, we have 1,000 elite soldiers here!
But Yang Shanlu smiled when he saw it. In fact, from the point of view of Tarzi, using a Niulu to attack his small thousand-households is already regarded as a high regard for him. Only one or two hundred soldiers, but now...
Not to mention that in the history of the war between the two sides, hundreds of Qing soldiers drove tens of thousands of Ming troops to run. That is commonplace, but now...
"Everyone, since such a little bit dare to come to the door, can we be more proactive? For example, take the initiative?" Compared to resisting the city, Yang Shanlu made a bolder proposal.
"Proactively attack? Your lord, do you mean to..." Among them, Qi Zhenzong's reaction was the fastest, and he looked at Yang Shanlu in surprise.
"Yes, I mean to go out of the city to fight! And fight for heavy damage to Tartar!"
Of course, Yang Shanlu knew that if they were to be safe, they would stay in the town’s fort and wait for Niu Lu to take the initiative to attack. That would almost be a stable victory, but Yang Shanlu was unwilling to do this, because in this way, the battlefield All of the initiative is in the hands of Tarzi. They can advance in victory and retreat in defeat. They are very calm.
And more importantly, Yang Shanlu is very aware of the combat effectiveness of his 1,000 Xuanjia Army! If you come to Jialai Zhangjing, it’s fine, but now there is only one Niulu, dare you come to invade my Zhenkou Fort? I won't give you a big lesson, and I'm so sorry for such an opportunity!
As for the third point, Yang Shanlu’s hand has already been spotted at a place called Banligou two miles away from Zhenkoubao. The reason for the spotting is that he believes that these have been cultivated by officers over a year. The guy should be able to understand his intentions.
"I think it's feasible!" After understanding Yang Shanlu's meaning, Qi Zhenzong was the first to say: "In terms of numbers, our army has 1,000 troops compared to 300 troops, which is an absolute advantage. From a topographical point of view, The topography of Banligou is very good.
There is the Nanyang River on the left and Yangmen Mountain on the right, plus an official road in the middle, and a small number of farm fields. It is only half a mile wide (the Niu Lu of Tarzi has a certain number of fine rides. It is not in such a narrow place. Conducive to the play of the fine riding of Tarzi), suitable as a battlefield.
Moreover, from intelligence analysis, the other four Niu Lus of the Qing soldiers have been scattered in the territory of the town captives, fighting around. It is estimated that even if they learn that the fighting here is unfavorable, it will take at least half a day to come and support, which is enough for us to end the battle. Up. "
"Well, it makes sense!" After Hai Rigu, Needle Eye and others listened, they all agreed. Now that the final battle tone is set, it is to proactively attack and use the favorable terrain of Banligou to fight for a heavy blow. Buddy!
After the decision was made, the 900 Xuanjia Army immediately began to take action and set out to fight!
In addition, Yang Shanlu notified the special battalion lurking outside to let them cooperate with this battle, and also notified the Taichiwu Department to join the battle.
After all the arrangements were made, Yang Shanlu led the 900 Xuanjia Army. After leaving the fort, he walked Erlidi and came to Banligou.
The terrain here is indeed very good. There is Nanyang River on the left and Yangmen Mountain on the right. Taichiwu can be hidden in it. In the middle is an official road, plus some farmland, which is only half a mile wide, and there are ridges in the farmland. Water conservancy facilities such as drainage ditches are not conducive to clearing troops and cavalry activities, and are a good battlefield.
And then the formation was about to be deployed. Yang Shanlu took a fancy to Qi Zhenzong and said, "Ming Yuan (Qi Zhenzong is called Mingyuan), what battle formation do you think is better for this battle?" Qi Zhenzong is a tactical player. You need to listen to his opinions.
And Qi Zhenzong said without hesitation: "I think the crane wing formation is better!"
Yang Shanlu laughed when he heard it... It's really the same as what a hero sees! The so-called Crane Wing Formation refers to the two wings spread like a crane on the left and right after the main general stands in the formation. It is a formation that is both offensive and defensive.
Specifically, after the two wings of the formation are deployed, it can be used to plagiarize the two sides of the enemy, and to attack the enemy in the middle of the formation together. It is a very good battle formation.
Of course, although the Crane Wing Array is sharp, the commander needs a high battlefield command ability. Otherwise, he cannot coordinate the two wings. But now, with the assistance of Yang Shanlu himself and the military masters like Qi Zhenzong, Yang Shanlu does not. worry.
In fact, Yang Shanlu was still wondering whether Qi Zhenzong would choose a square-round formation—that is, a defensive-oriented formation.
The so-called square and circular formation means that the main general is located in the center of the formation, and the outer forces are deployed layer by layer. The guiding ideology is dense defense, and because of the formation, it is difficult to chase the enemy if it is defeated, and the attack is poor.
And now, Qi Zhenzong dared to choose the crane wing formation, hiding the offense in the defense, which in itself expressed a belief that he would win!
"Okay, then choose Crane Wing Formation!"
Following Yang Shanlu's decision, the entire Xuanjia Army began to take action. As the flag bearers of the Central Military Department waved the various flags in their hands, the armour leaders of the various squadrons immediately deployed their formations according to the flags.
At this time, you can see the results of the usual training. In less than five minutes, the crane wing formation is ready, the left and right wings are perfectly extended, and according to the method of three-stage strikes, the birds are divided into three rows. , When the time comes to ensure that it does not move, one move is a continuous fire attack! Guaranteed to teach Tarzi a profound lesson!
To say that the advance speed of the Qing soldiers is still very fast, of course, there is no force in this field that can stop them.
After a while, there were already a small group of Qing army sentry knights roaring in, as a pioneer of the path, but when these unscrupulous Qing army sentry horses saw a Ming army appeared in front of them, they formed a formation. After facing the battle, I was still very surprised. I haven't seen it in many years!
But that was the case. Based on their experience, since the bloody battle in the Hunhe River, after the two capable Ming forces were completely wiped out, any existing Ming forces could not stop the advance of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry.
Then these clear troops sent back to report, and after a while, Yang Shanlu saw that there were groups of clear troops on the opposite official road, that is, the headquarters of the clear troops.
These Tarzis cleared their way with a group of cavalry from the tribe, followed by their infantry armour. They were on foot and equipped with rigorous military capabilities. Although they were still far away, there was already a rush of killing air!
Looking at the armors and banners of these Qing soldiers, they are all white with red borders, and Yang Shanlu knows that this is the army of the Manchu Eight Banners with white flags, that is, the main force of the Eight Banners Army! It's not the soy sauce of Mongolian Eight Banners.
According to Yang Shanlu’s knowledge, the Mosaic White Banner belongs to the Lower Four Banners of the Eight Banners of Manchuria. Served as the flag owner of the white flag.
Looking at the scale of their numbers, it is exactly a standard Niu Lu, headed by a Niu Lu Zhangjing under Xiangbai's subordinate.
To say that the clearing forces at this time are indeed in a period of rising strength. Although there are only 300 clearing forces, they seem to have a majestic momentum in the face of thousands of troops!
When the Qing soldiers that appeared, they saw that a Ming army really appeared in front of them and blocked their way. They were very surprised to think about it. Since the Qi family army was wiped out on the Hun River, it has not been for many years. Something happened!
Of course, according to them, this Ming army is still a little different from the ordinary Ming army. Not only is it all equipped with iron armor, but the spirit is also good, and the banner of this Ming army is also weird, no The common five-sided flags like Qinglong and Baihu are blue-bottomed flags painted with an armored knight.
Of course, these Qing soldiers didn't know that in the future, this blue flag painted with armored knights would become their nightmare! And it is the nightmare of the entire Manchuria Eight Banners! Even in the end, the Qing Dynasty, which they worked so hard to establish, will take their last breath!
"Master Zhang Jing, the Ming army in front is a bit weird, do you want to send the warriors to try it out first?"
At this time, Tarzi had stopped, and there was a person who could be allocated to Shiku to speak, and the object of his speech was the chief general of this Qing army, a Niu Lu Zhangjing.
"No need-just let the warriors rush into the battle!" The Niu Lu Zhangjing rejected this suggestion. The Jurchen was a burly figure, dressed in fine white armor, and had a long slender money rattail behind his head. There are obvious scars on the board, and he is obviously a veteran on the battlefield.
However, this Niu Lu Zhangjing didn't pay attention to the Ming army on the opposite side... Now, the most powerful in the Ming country is the Guan Ning army, which is the so-called Guan Ning cavalry.
But even so, isn't the beaten tortoise huddled in Jinzhou city and dare not to take a step out of the city? This is also the case with the most powerful army in the Ming Dynasty, and why should you be afraid of the army of this kind of small guard station
Hearing this Niu Lu Zhangjing's words, the Shiku who was assigned to take the order, to be honest, he was just due to his duties, as his deputy, he had to remind the general.
In fact, I don't take these Ming troops in my mind... Under the iron hoof of the Eight Banners, is there anything Ming troops can stop
As a result, after these Qing soldiers continued to advance for a while, they stopped less than one mile from the Xuanjia Army.
"Ready to fight!" Yang Shanlu had already ordered loudly at this time, and the waiting Xuan Jia army immediately began to operate in accordance with the training specifications.
They took out the set-up* that they carried with them and stuffed them into their mouths to complete their pre-war preparations.
Although among them, some of the Xuanjia armies had a relatively small number of battles, and because they had long heard of Tarzi's fierce power, they felt very nervous during the operation, and even their throats were a little dry!
But their movements are not messy at all! This is not only because after tens of thousands of hard training, this has become an instinct carved into their bones! Even more because everyone knows that this is a national war! And behind them is their relative's family, this is a battle with no way out!
After a little preparation, the Qing soldiers on the opposite side had already begun to move. There were nearly two hundred people in the queue, that is, they sent most of their forces in one fell swoop!
In terms of the composition of Tarzi’s army, it is basically two-thirds of cannon fodder (armored and enlisted) and one-third of combat troops (main combat forces such as infantry, vest, and white armor), and this Once is no exception.
Yang Shanlu is holding a telescope, and you can see clearly. Among the Tarzis who fought this time, there were about 80 infantry, vest and white armored soldiers. These Qing soldiers were armed with strong bows, and there were the same number of auxiliary soldiers and soldiers. Enlisted.
These auxiliary soldiers and follow-up soldiers were used as dead soldiers, armed with double-layered heavy armor, armed with a large shield, and attacked first.
Then use them as assault arrows, followed by the armor and vest archery support, and is responsible for tearing the formation.
And further behind is the decisive force, the white armored soldiers! It looks like a dozen people!
After seeing these white armored soldiers, Yang Shanlu's eyes shrank slightly! Because compared to Tarzi, Bai Jiabing was like a Dinghai Shenzhen! In the 300-man Niu Lu, there are no more than 20 white armored soldiers! Rare and unusual!
These white armored soldiers are not only outstanding in their personal martial arts, but also veterans who can survive countless battles! The battlefield experience is extremely rich, so in the cold weapon era, it can be a top ten!
And these white armored soldiers are also very well equipped. They wear three layers of iron armor, the inner layer is lock armor, the second is iron armor, and the outer layer is iron cotton armor, including ear protection, neck protection, and eyebrow protection. The greatest protection is each. Kind of weapon damage!
After looking at the white armored soldiers, Yang Shanlu and Qi Zhenzong signaled for a moment... When the war will start, we must greet these white armored soldiers!
As for the officers in the Tarzi, nearly two hundred Qing soldiers were equipped with eight or nine specialists (similar to the flags of the Ming army). These specialists were burly in stature, with high red tassels on their heads and oblique pointed ones on their bodies. The little yellow flag also has outstanding combat power.
As for the presidential collar of these Qing soldiers, it was a Shiku (similar to the general banner of the Ming army, with two people in a cattle record).
After reading it, the Qing soldiers began to attack according to the three-tiered formation of dead soldiers, sharp soldiers, and white armored soldiers.
Of course, there are still more than a hundred steps (one step is 1.5 meters) between the two sides at this time, and Taroko slowly advances at a normal speed, so that when the final charge comes, he can burst out explosive power!
Of course, even if you advance slowly like this, there is a kind of terrifying aura forcing it!
And seeing the Qing soldiers finally dispatched, Yang Shanlu, who was in the center of the headquarters, had a scorching light in his eyes... In that case, let's see who is the best! (End of this chapter)
