Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 994
The iron cavalry of the Heluo New Army turned into billowing iron currents and surged forward. They cut through the incomplete and loose front line that had been washed away by the defeated army. The waves hit the rickety dam and splashed with blood.When the opponent's morale is high, heavy cavalry attacking the heavy infantry phalanx head-on is asking for death. But now the Qing army can no longer talk about high morale. They are terrified. Although there are many brave men who are willing to fight to the end, most of them are here. They chose to escape before a destructive torrent rushed up. The entire front line was already incomplete. The lancers of the Heluo New Army cut into their line like butter. Several rows of soldiers were knocked over. I don't know how many were wearing heavy armor. A. The panic-looking Qing warrior was provoked by Ma Shan.The hunting cavalry followed closely and charged in. The Miao sword held up a series of cold arcs. The Miao sword made of high carbon steel cut iron like mud. Coupled with the high speed given by the galloping horse, it was even more indestructible. The heavy Qing army The armor of the armored warrior was mercilessly split open, and the flesh and blood body was torn apart by the blade.The Lancers and Chasseurs were like a lawnmower running at full speed, mowing all the way, and blood and flesh flew everywhere they rushed. In just one charge, the Qing army's front was completely destroyed!

When the Huaisi cavalry saw the New Army cavalry destroying the Qing army's front line with thunderous force, they all stuck out their tongues and used all their skills to kill in one go, knocking down a large area.Now their field of vision has become wider, and the enemies they can see are fleeing, and there are very few enemies who dare to rush up to fight with them.They didn't talk nonsense and didn't even get off their horses. They jumped directly from the back of the panting horse, leaving the horse to rest in place. Thousands of cavalrymen picked up pulley bows and javelins and rushed towards the fleeing enemy troops. Back to kill, the iron cavalry is like the wind, the sharp arrows are like rain, the javelins are like hail, and the fleeing enemy troops fall in clusters.Each of these Huaisi cavalrymen has several horses. When chasing the enemy, they don't even need to dismount. They jump directly from one horse to another. Each horse also carries two bags of sharp arrows or several arrows. Javelins are more ferocious than jackals in pursuit. They will never give up until they gnaw all the bones of the enemy army.

The infantry of the Heluo New Army, including the combat engineers who were almost exhausted, had already pressed forward and engaged in hand-to-hand combat. They didn't know how many enemy troops they surrounded. Anyway, they used bayonets and engineering shovels to shoot at the guys who didn't wear black military uniforms. It's right to stab the body hard, and if the enemy is farther away, you can swing a few grenades over.The bayonets stabbed randomly and the sappers slashed, and the Qing army fell one by one, and the battle turned into a terrible massacre.

But this does not mean that the Qing army gave up resistance, at least the Xianghuangqi will not.In the first round, they let the heavy cavalry of the Heluo New Army charge to pieces, but quickly reorganized their formation and resisted tenaciously with crossbows, muskets and javelins, especially the muskets and javelins. The cavalry posed a deadly threat. Their formation was very tight, and the spear points were densely packed. Even the horses of the Heluo New Army who had undergone strict training did not dare to charge up. It stopped a few meters away, and then projectiles and javelins roared, and the charging cavalry fell off their horses one after another.The infantrymen of the Qing army roared at them with fierce and unruly expressions. Now that their defeat was already certain, they regarded death as home. The blood and courage honed from the forest and wind and snow in the white mountains and black waters filled their veins, and they wanted to make them bow their heads, too. Difficult!

Yang Menglong saw that the opponent had formed a tight circle, the tips of the spears were thick like reeds, and the soldiers were next to each other, like a hedgehog. He frowned and told Zhong Ning and Qin Mai not to attack for the time being.He mobilized the white camel to come to the front of the formation, and seeing Hauge who was covered in blood but standing still under the golden banner, Yang called out: "Surrender, you have no hope of winning!"

Hauge spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, took off his helmet, took a step forward, and asked, "Yang Menglong?"

Yang Menglong also took off his helmet: "Haoge?"

The two had met in Lushun, and they knew each other, but the Qing army had a huge advantage in Lushun. Hauge could point his nose at Yang Menglong, but now it was Yang Menglong who dealt a devastating blow to the Qing army. The roles were reversed. .

Hauge smiled hoarsely, and said, "My boy, you are very good at fighting, I admire you!"

Yang Menglong said: "You are not bad either. After a devastating blow, you can still stabilize the troops and lead them to repel my cavalry several times."

The corner of Hauge's mouth raised: "If Huang Ama heard what you said, she would probably be proud of me."

Yang Menglong cast his eyes on the piles of corpses and the streams of blood on the battlefield, looking a little tired: "Haoge, surrender, you can't win. Your formation can block my heavy cavalry charge, but my But the infantry and artillery can kill you all like target shooting... Enough people have died today, the victory has been decided, enough is enough, let's give it a try."

There was a terrifying roar from the Qing army formation, the eyes of the Qing army soldiers were bloodshot, and countless muskets and crossbows aimed at Yang Menglong.

Yang Menglong said loudly: "Think about your parents! Think about your wives and children! Think about the future of your entire ethnic group! Fighting the enemy bravely on the battlefield is worthy of recognition, but it is a cowardly act to want to die when you are defeated! You are the last group of young adults of this ethnic group, if you all die, your ethnic group will be completely extinct!"

The roar stopped suddenly, and the furious Qing army fell silent. They looked at each other, and they both saw the despair and sadness on each other's faces.Yes, they are the last young people of the entire ethnic group. If they all die, the entire ethnic group will have no future.

Hauge was silent for a long time and asked, "If we surrender, what will you do with us?"

Yang Menglong said: "Maybe you will be scattered and moved to the interior to enrich the outlying areas, or maybe you will continue to fight with weapons to open up the territory for the Ming Dynasty."

Hauge was a little surprised: "We broke through and occupied your capital, you won, don't you kill them all?"

Yang Menglong said: "The killing is aimed at those guys who are stubborn, and some guys are more hateful than you."

Hauge nodded and said, "You can trust the words of the champion." Looking back at the three thousand warriors beside him, he took a deep breath and said, "They have promised not to kill them all, put down your weapons! ...For your wives, children, parents, and our entire ethnic group, live and don't die!"

The soldiers of the Qing army cried out, "Master——"

Hauge waved his hand to signal them to be quiet, raised the long sword in his hand, pointed at Yang Menglong, and said in a deep voice: "Remember your promise, don't kill the prisoners, otherwise I will come back as a ghost to settle accounts with you!" Before everyone responded When he came over, he turned the long sword, pointed the tip of the sword at the chest and exerted force, the front of the long sword went in and out of the back chest, and a bloody section protruded from the vest, blood spurted wildly, and he fell down under countless horrified eyes.

Everyone was stunned.

Yang Menglong let out a long sigh.He didn't say how to deal with the group of Ba Da Baylor, because he didn't have any say. Although Hauge was reckless and used his fists faster than his brain, he was not a fool. He knew that even if he surrendered, there would be no good outcome. He was going to die, so he ended it on his own after getting the promise. As for the Ming army mincing him into meat paste or even filing his bones and scattering ashes after his death, it doesn't matter. The dead person is already dead, so you can do whatever you like.

The Heluo new army stood upright and bowed to this brave and fearless opponent, expressing respect to the opponent in this way.

Yang Menglong said: "He is a good man...don't cut off his head, find a better coffin, pick a better place, let his subordinates hold a decent funeral for him. Hand over their weapons, Leave the next brigade to watch, others, continue to chase after me!"

The more than 3000 surviving soldiers of the Xianghuang Banner silently put down their weapons. They sat on the ground in a daze while waiting for the Heluo New Army to deliver the coffin, with empty eyes and dull expressions, as if they had lost their souls.

The Heluo new army did not spend too much time on them, leaving a brigade with the heaviest casualties to guard these soldiers, and the brigade continued to pursue them.The most frightening thing about Heluo's new army is that they are like a clockwork machine. Once they run at full speed, they will never stop unless they wipe out the enemies. It seems that none of them exist!In the Battle of Lushun, the Qing army had experienced the strength of this opponent who seemed to never know how tired they were, and now they had to experience it again.The first one to learn was the Guan Ning Army. The Huaisi cavalry drove these rout soldiers all over the world. Thousands of rout soldiers were crowded together and couldn't move. Many Guan Ning Army infantry blocked the road. The cavalry, who were also in a panic, roared and told them to go away. The infantry did not have the consciousness to give way to the cavalry at all, and the two sides had fierce quarrels and even fought.While the fight was in full swing, the Heluo new army came to persuade them to fight, and the black tide came wildly, catching up with them and drowning them mercilessly.Faced with this terrifying torrent, the only thing they can do is to surrender, or be wiped out.

The Qing army was no exception. The Huaisi cavalry clung to them and would not let go of them. Once any troops fell behind, they would immediately pounce on them and swallow them up.The Qing army gritted their teeth with hatred for the group of hungry wolves behind them. This kind of tactic of using Qingqi to chase after them, constantly biting their opponents, and causing panic, exhaustion, and even despair while bleeding their opponents was exactly what they were good at. Ming and Qing During the decades of fighting, the wolf attack tactics of the Qing cavalry was a nightmare for the Ming army. Often before the main force had a decisive battle, this endless biting caused the Ming army to collapse!Now that this tactic was used on him, he felt the same sourness, which made them furious!
Huang Taiji woke up leisurely, and what he saw was such a miserable appearance of throwing away his helmet and armor.The Zhenghuang flag and the inlaid red flag are fine, and they still maintain discipline. The Guanning Army is miserable. Flags, armor and weapons are thrown all over the world.Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui, Wu Sanfu and other generals of the Guan Ning Army looked panicked and kept looking back, like a deer being chased by a hunter, that cowardly look made Huang Taiji furious!He noticed that the troops were rushing towards Beijing, and the cavalry of the Ming army kept appearing and disappearing behind them. Every time they appeared, there would be screams of horror among the Qing army... His heart was pierced like a knife, and he was defeated. He tried his best to fight Yang Menglong, and the Qing army was defeated before it could display its normal level of combat effectiveness, and the defeat was like a mountain!With this defeat, he probably won't have another chance.He looked around but saw no sign of his reckless son.He asked, "Where's Hauge?"

No one answered him.Everyone was just running for their lives and couldn't hear his voice.

Huang Taiji let out a roar: "Where is my Hauge!?"

The generals around him were startled, but they finally came to their senses. They looked at each other, but no one answered.

Huang Taiji looked sad, and muttered to himself: "Haoge... is not here..."

A strong sense of loneliness hit him, making his soul tremble.Those figures who followed him freely, Amin, Manggurtai, Dudu, Abatai, Jierhalang, Azig, Dorgon, Duoduo, Yuetuo... are all gone now. Even Hauge, who was always reckless, not very popular with him but still loyal, was gone, and he was the only one still struggling!
"Widow", what a lonely title, he didn't understand it before, but now he understands it.
