In the first year of the Apocalypse, Phi Island was conquered from Amin, and Tieshan was invaded. He beheaded all twelve family members of Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Zhenjiang in the Ming Dynasty. one.

Later, Yang Guli, as Nurhachi's confidant, led the inlaid red flag, conquered Hada, Ula and other tribes successively, and also pacified the Liao people in the local area, all of which had many military exploits.

Yang Guli had just noticed that there were rout soldiers behind him, and just as he called a few people for questioning, the white-armored soldiers sent by Nurhachi flew in front of him.

The white armored soldier dismounted from his horse, saluted Yang Guli first, and said:

"Qibeile, the Great Khan wants you to fight with the whole army, defeat the Ming army, and chop off the head of Wang Wei, the commander-in-chief of the Ming army!"

Yang Guli also asked about it just now, this is Wang Wei, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou of the Ming Dynasty, who sent troops without authorization.

With such a large number of Ming troops, they were still fighting in the field. Naturally, he was not at all worried that the battle would not be won, so he agreed immediately.

"Please tell the Great Khan that Yangguli will wipe out the Ming army in Jizhou, and congratulate the Great Khan on his triumphant return!"

After he finished speaking, the white armored soldier got on his horse and galloped away to the front army.

Yang Guli watched the white armored soldiers leave, and called Niulu and Jiala, who were inlaid with red flags, and more than ten people began to deploy and fight in a calm manner.

In his opinion, it would take time for the Ming army to reach this place, and besides, most of the Ming army were infantry in field battles on the plains, and the iron cavalry with red flags were not in vain at all.

What needs to be arranged now is how to defeat the Ming army who came to deliver equipment as quickly as possible, and then rush back with supplies and heads to offer to the Great Khan!

After Nurhachi left Yangguli Duan, he complied with the contract and ordered to pull out the camp and withdraw the troops at [-]:[-] am.

Soon, people in the Houjin Army camp shouted horses, and the main force of the Eight Banners followed Nurhachi and the kings Baylor to leave one after another. Only Xianghongqi was ordered to leave more than 1 riders to intercept and kill Wang Wei.

As the sun sets, the evening clouds merge.

Yang Guli was wearing a red flag-studded armor, standing on the top of the hillside, holding the rein of the horse in one hand, looking up at the distant plain, suddenly smoke and dust rose from the northwest corner.

Not only was he stunned for a moment, but then he got on his horse and laughed loudly:

"The Ming army is here!"

"Pass down Ben Baylor's order, beat the drums to fight, and defeat the Ming army in one go!"

……

Seeing that Jiannu was already prepared, Wang Wei immediately ordered to stop the pursuit.

When the order was issued, there were also people and horses in the Ming army's large formation. The pacesetters who passed the order kept running, and all the ministries began to organize the army in an orderly manner under the restraint of the general.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Soon, a cavalry was in front, and a large square formation of infantry formed, shouting slogans, and pressed far towards the red-armored Jurchen cavalry on the hillside.

In terms of Houjin, he also played drums.

"Woooo-"

The sound of horns resounded over the plain, the Ming army array suddenly stopped moving, and the cavalry on both sides began to charge forward.

When the Ming army cavalry came to the foot of the small slope, the Jurchen cavalry was about to attack, but they saw the Ming army suddenly turned around and left, and there was a loud noise from behind the army formation.

"Bang bang bang-"

The artillery of the Ming army began to roar, and one after another the flowering bullets fell among the Jurchen cavalry, forming many small bloody pits in an instant.

Yang Guli frowned slightly, the Jizhou army on the opposite side carried a lot of firearms, now they were cannons, I'm afraid there will be firecrackers later, this is the last thing he wants to see.

At that time, in the Battle of Saerhu, he was ordered to intercept and kill the North Route Army under Jun Song's troops.

It was in this terrain at that time that the Ming army under Jun Jun formed an army formation, firing artillery from a distance, and using the army formation to kill Jurchen cavalry with firecrackers nearby.

Mang Gurtai, who was in charge of the commander-in-chief at that time, led the cavalry to charge several times, but there was nothing he could do with this kind of iron barrel formation, so he had to adopt the most helpless and stupid method, that is, to attack a little bit with his troops.

It happened that the weather was wet and suddenly changed, which was not good for the Ming army.

Not long after the battle, the crude firecrackers of the Ming army could not be fired one after another. Some jammed on the battlefield, and some spontaneously ignited and exploded. This allowed Mangurtai to quickly defeat the Juniper North Road.

Yang Guli made a slight estimate of the situation. The impact of the cavalry was extremely strong. If they were besieged from all sides, the Ming army would be at an advantage. His own red flag had no firearms, so he could only be beaten passively before the battle.

At this time, Yang Guli could think of the same method as Mang Gurtai, which was to use the huge impact of the Eight Banners cavalry to storm the Jizhou army.

As long as the formation outside them is broken, the Ming army will collapse!

At that time, the Ming army will be lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and they will let their own troops hunt down and kill them!

Just thinking about it, the wind and sand that had been silent for a long time actually started blowing again.

Hearing these movements in his ears, the expression on Yang Guli's face became brighter. At this moment, the wind and sand are blowing up again, and the Ming army's defense is naturally disadvantageous!

Chapter 383 The wind changes, the battle of wits and courage

"Whoosh-"

A whirlwind gradually rolled up on the flat ground, Yangguli was happy to help the wind and sand, but the cavalry with the red flag was in chaos, several dragon flags were swept into the air, and their mounts were also very disturbed .

"Seven Baylor, the sky has changed!"

A cow recorder rushed over and said hastily.

Needless to say, Yanguli's complexion has become ugly now.

He originally thought that the wind and sand would help him defeat the Ming army, but unexpectedly, the weather in Liaodong was unpredictable, and the wind and sand suddenly changed direction today, and began to blow towards the Jurchen cavalry.

In an instant, the surrounding area was completely dark and dusty, and even the large formation of the Ming army down the slope could not be seen clearly.

"Taiwan, it's blowing sand!"

"Brothers are all blown top-heavy, and they can't stand still, like drunks, staggering, how can we fight this battle?"

"The wind and sand in this dog's day don't come sooner or later, but at this time, we can't even touch the shadow of slave riders!"

Several Jizhou generals came and said one after another.

Wang Wei, the general soldier of Jizhou who served as the striker, looked dignified. This was indeed a miscalculation. Although the generals transferred from the pass were experienced in combat, they were not familiar with the ever-changing weather in Liaodong.

In the Battle of Saerhu, the Juniper Division suffered from this loss, and was eager for success and profit. Surrounded by slave cavalry, it rained heavily during the battle, and all firearms became fire sticks, which were useless at all.

But Wang Wei observed for a while, but laughed out loud.

"Look, this wind and sand is blowing towards the slave riders. Our army is carrying the wind and sand on their backs, and the slave riders are rushing towards them. They are more uncomfortable than us!"

All the generals soon discovered this, and their faces showed joy.

"Let's order from the town hall!"

Wang Wei nodded slightly, and then said loudly:

"Order the cavalry on both wings to shrink back to the formation, and the formation will be strictly guarded!"

The wind and sand were too strong, and when it was the worst, the visibility was even less than a hundred paces. The strong wind rolled up the sand on the ground, with some broken wood and small stones, and violently slapped on the armor of the soldiers of the Ming army.

Wang Wei watched the wind and sand vigilantly, for fear that a group of slave horses would suddenly rush out from the depths.

In such windy and sandy weather, although the firearms can be used, they are all blind. Unauthorized firing is tantamount to telling the other party their location.

Wang Wei knew in his heart that at this moment, he could only form an formation in place to protect himself, and the slave riders faced the wind and sand directly. Apart from retreating, the only way to go was to take the initiative to attack.

Once encountering slave cavalry on the way forward, without the obstruction of firearms, and the large formation suddenly encounters an impact while advancing, it is likely to collapse at the touch of a touch.

Fighting in the field, the Ming army, which is dominated by infantry, must be careful everywhere!

Both armies became blind. Compared with Wang Wei, Yangguli's cavalry with red flags were particularly affected by the wind and sand.

They even blindfolded their mounts to reduce the impact of the wind and sand.

The two armies got closer and closer without knowing it. Wang Wei, who stood at the front, stood with the wind and became more confident in his heart.

Just at this moment, a long string of black figures appeared in the wind and sand.

Without any hesitation, Wang Wei drew out his saber and shouted loudly:

"Bird gun, release—!"

At this time, you can no longer pay attention to the three-stage attack.

The distance between the two armies is so close, if you fire first, the Jurchen cavalry will also charge, and you have to release as many times as possible to cause damage.

Yang Guli led the cavalry inlaid with red flags and walked in front, but he didn't care about the explosion at first.

He had also seen the power of the Ming army's bird guns. The bird guns they were equipped with could fire two or three out of ten shots, which is not bad.

Right now, the wind and sand were blowing heavily, and the Ming army's blunderbusses were severely affected by the wind and rain, and they might not be able to be released, and became fire sticks.

Even if it can be released, its power will definitely be greatly reduced. Hitting Dajin's cavalry is not like scratching an itch, and it is nothing to fear.

Seeing the formation of the Ming army appearing in front of him, Yang Guli moved forward with a knife, and was about to rush into the formation to fight, when suddenly there was a scream beside him.

However, countless lead bullets were fired from the blunderbuss, shooting the Jurchen cavalry who were slowly advancing beside him, turning them on their backs.

"Qibeilor, what kind of firearm is the Ming army?"

A Niu Lu was hit on the left shoulder, with a frightened face, he gritted his teeth and asked.

"The sound should still be a shotgun, but..." Yang Guli stopped after a few words, and he was actually a little confused.

In such a windy and sandy weather, how could the southern barbarians fire their blunderbuss?How can there be such a great power?

Not able to think about it, Yang Guli was the first to rush out.

Despite the impact of the wind and sand, the Jurchen cavalry with red flags were quite excited, because none of them thought that this battle would be lost.

The shouts from among the Jurchen cavalry were heard clearly by all the Ming soldiers.

Although they couldn't understand what these barbarians said at all, looking at their rough faces and thinking about the fierce reputation of the Jurchen cavalry in the past, it still caused uncontrollable fear in the hearts of many Ming soldiers.

The sound of horseshoes became louder and closer, and the cavalry charged at such a close distance that the ground under the feet of the Ming army trembled.

The horseshoes were like thunder, and accompanied by the neighing of the horses, more than ten thousand Jurchen cavalry with red flags slammed into the large formation of the Ming army.

Stumped limbs danced, war horses wailed, and the sound of killing pierced through the dust flying all over the sky, resounding above the sky.

Wang Wei, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou, never retreated, was extremely brave, and led his own soldiers to stand among the chaotic army and cut off the heads of the Jurchens one by one.

Yang Guli knew the principle of killing the enemy and taking the head first. Seeing this mighty general with his back turned to him, he urged his horse to take the opportunity to approach from the right.

Wang Wei was raising his blood-stained saber and slashing at a Jurchen cavalry soldier. At this moment, a shout came from behind him, which made him tremble with fright.

"kill!"

Yang Guli's broadsword slashed at Wang Wei, who had his back turned to him.

Wang Wei had a premonition of the crisis, and retracted the swung knife ahead of time, but he still couldn't dodge in time, and his left arm was cut off to the ground.

Blood was dripping red, staining the sand under the battlefield.

Yang Guli was so powerful that he jumped off his horse with his bloody mouth open, dragged his sword on the ground to chase after him, and chopped down the Jizhou soldiers who came to protect him one after another.

In front of this famous and burly Hou Jinqi Baylor, no one could resist the second strike.

The full moon was in the sky, and the shouts of killing on the battlefield still did not weaken in any way.

Although the Jurchen cavalry charged against the wind, it was a blessing in disguise because of the wind and sand. They avoided being consumed by the Ming army's firearms in advance and were able to directly engage in close combat.

Although the impact of the Jurchen cavalry was greatly weakened due to this, the Ming army, whose firearms had not been fully utilized, soon showed a state of exhaustion in field battles.

In the battle with Yang Guli, Wang Wei has been at a disadvantage because he was attacked by surprise, which was caught by Yang Guli.

He raised his bloody arm and shouted loudly in Chinese: "Your commander-in-chief has been killed by Ben Bele. If the remaining Ming army can surrender, Ben Bele will spare you!"

After hearing this, the Jurchen cavalry's morale was boosted and they became even more fierce.

In the midst of flying sand and rocks, the Jurchen cavalry rushed towards the Ming army's formation overwhelmingly, and some even penetrated into the rear formation amidst the chaos, and began to massacre gunners and gunners.

Wang Wei was nowhere to be found, and the Jizhou Army lost its general, and soon began to be in chaos, showing a trend of complete collapse.

Chapter 384 A cowardly generation, causing trouble to the three armies

About a quarter of an hour ago, Gaudí rode on a bay red horse, looking at the [-]-odd army who could not see the first one, his face was full of complacency.

This Gao Di, who is just 26 years old this year, has a good figure, neither fat nor thin, and his facial features are also correct, but because of too much sex, his complexion looks a little pale.

If he took off this general soldier armor, he would look like a white-faced scholar.

Gaodi can also be regarded as a typical example of flattering Wei Zhongxian to advance. Others, such as Cui Chengxiu, Minister of the Ministry of War, Wen Tiren, and Yang Sichang, also followed the same path.

This group of people has long been affectionately dubbed the eunuchs by the officials of Donglin, and the scholars in the world scold them day and night, and some unreasonable people follow suit, and their reputation has long been infamous.

But the reputation doesn't affect Gao Yilu's official career in the slightest.

He was originally a poor man in the market place, and he had nothing to do with the dignified commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty. He was used to living a shabby life since he was a child.
