Chongzhen Chat Group

Bu He had the dual identity of Huang Taiji's brother-in-law and father-in-law, and he also showed positive performance. He was the first to lead troops to the alliance, but in the end, Huang Taiji treated him differently and was not on the front line. What's more, the soldiers he brought were all old and weak. When placed on the front line, they were just for consumption and were of little use.

However, Bu He was not grateful at all. Huang Taiji's performance this time made him scared enough. Fortunately, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty notified them in advance and made arrangements, so the Horqin people were able to avoid the possibility of losing troops and generals in this war. In this regard, he can clearly distinguish who deserves the credit!

After returning to his own army, Bu He's first words to Hailanzhu were: "If the Ming army can withstand this Qing army's attack, then the Qing country will most likely be doomed!"

Hai Lanzhu was very surprised and quickly asked about the situation. After knowing the whole story, he was speechless for a long time. He couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the fat man who usually smiled at him.

Because of this, she asked very worriedly: "Eqi Ge, can the Gaizhou Ming army hold it?"

After hearing this, Bu He did not answer directly. Instead, he turned to look at the battlefield, looking at the densely packed troops and the many kinds of siege equipment. He felt uncertain and said with a little blessing: "With the Emperor of Ming's wishes, Ying Ming actually initiated this war, so he should be somewhat confident!"

At the same time, on the outskirts of the battlefield, a group of Jianlu soldiers stopped a dozen people and shouted, "Who are they?"

"It's me!" The leader was tall and handsome. He looked like a gentle scholar at first glance. However, his face was very pale and his voice was low. He seemed to be injured.

Jianlu Tanma recognized this man. Among the Han people who had defected to the Qing Dynasty, the one whom the emperor relied on the most seemed to be the descendant of a famous person, his name was Fan Wencheng.

So, the leader of Tanma just looked at him suspiciously and felt relieved that he didn't embarrass him.

Fan Wencheng thanked him respectfully and continued on his way. Hearing the faint sound of war drums, he ordered his servants: "The war in Gaizhou seems to be about to begin. Please be careful not to appear panicked, lest others see that it affects morale. Do you understand?"

"I understand, sir!" his servants replied in unison.

Then a leader of the servants seemed a little worried and said: "Master, although you escaped by wearing three layers of heavy armor, you were still injured by the arrow. Why don't you go slowly, so as not to see the emperor?" When I send you to the battlefield, then..."

"Shut up!" Fan Wencheng heard this and shouted sternly, "It's just a mere injury. It doesn't matter. If there weren't many soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, I would definitely be able to fight Lu Xiangsheng for another 300 rounds!"

When his servants heard this, they didn't dare to speak. They finally understood, but the master was still very dissatisfied with Lu Xiangsheng. He would get angry whenever he thought about it, which was a bit irrational.

In fact, they all saw that that night, Lu Xiangsheng just shot an arrow casually, and it was still some distance away. The arrow penetrated three layers of heavy armor. As long as he had more strength, he would definitely be able to shoot into the stomach, but even so , the strength is also incredible.

To be honest, although my master is capable of literary and military skills, in terms of literature, he can be a governor of the Ming Dynasty. However, he was just a scholar back then and failed to even win the imperial examination. In terms of martial arts, although he is also brave and good at fighting. , but compared to Lu Xiangsheng, it seems to be a lot worse.

Thinking like this, they sighed in their hearts and followed Fan Wencheng silently.

At the same time, on the arrow tower at the top of Gaizhou City, Gao Yingyuan was saying to the general Cao Bianjiao: "In Jianlu's arrangement, the Urad tribe is on the front line, and there are other Mongolian tribes, including..."

Through Hai Lanzhu, Bu He reported all Huang Taiji's arrangements for dispatching troops and generals to Emperor Chongzhen. At this time, Gao Yingyuan said exactly what was conveyed. In other words, Cao Bianjiao knew everything about a few sentences. .

Although Cao Bianjiao was still very young at this time, he had been with Cao Wenzhao since he was a child, and his military experience was also very old. In addition, beforehand, he had conducted sandbox simulations on Jianlu's possible attack methods. It can be said that he was not panicked at all.

After listening to what Gao Yingyuan conveyed, he immediately began to issue orders, and the new army in Gaizhou City finally began to move.

After making arrangements, Cao Bianjiao took the telescope and continued to observe Jianlu's movements. Amidst the thunderous war drums, rows of carriages were slowly advancing, protecting the Mongols behind them. Beside them, there were many Mongolians shouting slogans and pushing tall arrow towers, counterweight trebuchets, and ladder trucks forward that could provide a certain shielding effect.

Haha, come on, let’s get through the first level first! Cao Bianjiao sneered in his heart.

Outside Gaizhou City, pits have long been dug. Countless irregular pits, one to the east and one to the west, are used to delay the approach of large siege equipment that blocks Jianlu. Although the Jianlu had already filled in the areas far away under the cover of night, there was no way they could fill in the areas just below the city without dying!

There are also piles of soil dug out of the pits in lumps here and there. In such a cold winter, the soil has long been frozen solid. If you want to flatten these lumps of soil within the range of a bow and arrow, you can't do it without sacrificing a lot of human life!

The shouts and chants on the battlefield finally drowned out the whistling wind. As they got closer and closer to Gaizhou City, the carriages began to accelerate, moving forward like huge shields and city walls. Covering the Mongols behind.

When they finally reached the end of the flat ground, the Mongolians let out a shout, ducked out from behind the cart, or dumped the soil they were carrying into the pit as quickly as possible, or used their weapons crazily under the cover of their big shields. The hoe is digging into the dirt. Suddenly, in the area surrounding Gaizhou City, it seemed that the Mongolians began to worry about how to farm!

Huang Taiji, who was watching the formation from a distance, was focused on the front line. Whether this section of road can be filled in time and open a channel for the subsequent army to attack the city is a very critical link. Naturally, he also knew that this section should have the most deaths. Although the dead were Mongolians, if many people died, it would eventually damage morale. But now that we have the cover of the carriage, it will be somewhat effective!

Just as he was thinking this, he saw the Ming army on the top of the city react. I saw the Ming army on the top of the city starting to shoot arrows. They didn't seem to be densely packed. This was a good sign!

But before Huang Taiji had time to be happy, he suddenly discovered with a little embarrassment that the Ming army on the top of the city seemed to have fired all their arrows, and almost every arrow missed. It only took a while and a few steps to fill the pit and dig soil, but many Mongolians were already dead!

What is going on? Why do the Ming army have so many sharp archers?

Thanks to the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang in the Ming Dynasty, Bird and Fishe for the reward!
