Chapter 1062 The setting sun is like blood(1/2)
~~~~~~
Looking at the yellow and blue soldiers of the Hou Jin Army, they quickly retreated and left like a tide. The entire Ming Army battle formation was like a deflated red ball, as if all defenses were suddenly removed.
Because~~, they really don’t even have the energy to cheer and celebrate their victory.
On the horizon, the setting sun is like blood.
The crimson sunset made the color of the entire world look indescribably ferocious.
On the side of the Ming Army's battle formation, the tail end of the Tatars had withdrawn more than a hundred steps away from the Ming Army's battle formation. Only then did some people begin to react, and cheers that sounded like the rest of their lives could be heard sporadically in the camp.
"Donkey balls! These dog Tartars are really cruel! Lao Hou, are you okay?"
On the right wing of the Ming army's battle formation, Man Gui sat down on the chest of a Tatar vest corpse next to him. With some difficulty, he looked at Hou Shilu, who was still in a daze a dozen steps away.
Man Gui was now covered in blood, his helmet had gone somewhere, and half of his hair had been cut off. He was in an indescribable embarrassment.
However, because of a set of fine armor sent by Li Yuanqing to protect him, Man Gui had minor injuries all over his body. Even though he was in a state of embarrassment, there were no fatal wounds.
But on the other hand, Hou Shilu was much worse off than Mangui.
Around him were scattered the corpses of at least a hundred of his personal guards.
He himself was also somewhat disfigured. There were several wounds on his back and thighs, and dark red blood could be faintly seen seeping out.
At this time, he heard Man Gui's cry. After a while, Hou Shilu realized what he was doing. He couldn't help but spat viciously, but his saliva was filled with blood.
"What a fucking dog, the Tatars! Are they really not human beings? Lao Man, I just thought that I would never see the sun tomorrow again..."
After Hou Shilu finished speaking, he didn't care about anything else and just lay down on the ground with his arms and legs spread out.
Even if he was lying together with his brothers and the bodies of the dog Tatars, he didn't care at all.
Man Gui suddenly smiled, used the steel knife in his hand to force himself to stand up, and slowly scanned the surrounding scene.
We are approaching the core of Guan Ning's army here, and not far behind is the command post of Commander Yuan.
But here, with the desperate support of a large number of gunmen from the Beijing camp, they risked their lives and almost exhausted their efforts, but they just barely... barely, barely resisted the Tatars.
It's like a mad dog-like offensive...
Mangui even had an illusion at that time that they were no longer able to survive. As long as the Tatars used a little more strength, they could break through their last line of defense and directly penetrate into the heart of Guan Ning's army.
This is also the worst battle that Man Gui has faced in his life!
You know, Man Gui and Hou Shilu only participated in the battle after several Niu Lu from Da Su came up at noon.
But even they were like this, let alone Zu Dashou and Cao Wenzhao who were in front.
The difficulty of this battle cannot be described in words.
At this time~, although the main force of the Hou Jin Army had withdrawn, Mangui knew clearly that the Tatars still had a lot of spare strength. Even if the battle lasted a quarter of an hour longer, it was very likely that the situation at this time would
It's not as simple as it is now...
At this time, Hou Shilu's beloved son Hou Gongji rushed over. When he saw his father lying on the ground, lying among the corpses, his tears couldn't stop pouring out in an instant, "
Dad, Dad, are you okay? Dad!"
"You are crying! Is your father still alive?"
Seeing that his precious son was crying profusely as if his father had really died, Hou Shilu hurriedly sat up from the ground, raised his hand and slapped Hou Gongji on the back of the head.
But Hou Gongji was not angry but happy. He couldn't help but knelt down next to Hou Shilu and sobbed softly.
In fact, Hou Gongji had been guarding Hou Shilu before, preparing to fight the dog Tatars to the end.
But in the end, seeing that the situation was no longer clear, Hou Shilu decisively sent Hou Gongji to the back and asked him to be responsible for liaison with the Chinese army.
Although this sounds good in name, in fact, it is Hou Shilu leaving a way out for his precious son, who is preparing to fight to the death and die for his country.
Ordinarily, in this state, the Tatars have just retreated, which is definitely not the time to relax or slack off.
It's just that this fierce battle was too brutal and arduous... With the withdrawal of the main Tatar army, everyone seemed to have been drained of their last energy. No one had much strength left.
Don't think about anything else.
On the left side of the battle formation, Zu Dashou felt as if he had been granted amnesty, as if his body had been hollowed out all of a sudden, with almost no strength left.
Just now, he had even prepared for the worst.
If he really couldn't resist the Tatars, he would stay in person to break up the rear and let Zu Dalue take his two sons to break out.
After all, if he died in battle, in such a situation, even the emperor and the court would not be able to ask anything more from their ancestral family.
You have to leave a trace of blood to your ancestral family.
Fortunately, fortunately.
The Tatars actually retreated at the most critical moment...
On the high platform, Governor Yuan also sat down on the chair behind him, his hands and legs trembling uncontrollably subconsciously.
His back, his whole body, was as if he had taken a cold shower, already soaked with cold sweat.
This battle is really...
Right wing.
Even Cao Wenzhao, who had always been full of infinite fighting spirit, was leaning against the earth wall behind him like a deflated rubber ball at this moment. His body was covered in blood and his mouth was constantly moving, trying to say something.
, but I can’t say a single word...
On top of Guangqumen City.
Emperor Chongzhen and all the dignitaries were stunned and didn't know how to react.
Today's battle, especially at the end, even a fool can see that as long as the dog Tatars use a little more strength, at this time, the Ming army's battle formation with thousands of ravines outside Guangqumen is probably no longer safe.
Yeah...
"Da-Daban, knot, is it over..."
Emperor Chongzhen swallowed hard, turned his head and looked at Wang Chengen aside.
Wang Chengen was no better at this time.
If someone could look carefully at this moment, they would probably be able to clearly see that both sides of his pants were already wet...
The air has long been filled with an indescribable smell of urine...
Fortunately, Emperor Chongzhen has been in the palace all year round and has long been accustomed to this smell, so he didn't notice it for a while.
After a moment, Wang Chengen finally came to his senses and said happily in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty, the Tatars have retreated, the Tatars have retreated! We won, we won!"
"Win? We won? Haha...hahahaha..."
For a moment, Emperor Chongzhen laughed out loud as if he was going crazy!
He finally won, he finally won!
"Hurry, hurry up, big companion! Notify the chef immediately and reward the three armies. No! Big companion! You personally go down below on my behalf to appease the soldiers of the three armies!"
Wang Cheng'en had already recovered a lot of his clarity at this time, and he also expected that Emperor Chongzhen would do this, so he hurriedly said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will go now!"
But at this time, in the heavy dusk and dusk, even if the Tatars retreated, Emperor Chongzhen would never dare to open the city gate now. He could clearly see the fatigue of the Ming army soldiers.
Wang Chengen was put down in a hanging basket by the guards and the eunuch.
As Wang Chengen arrived at the city, the male duck's voice rang out, and the entire Ming army's battle formation seemed to have deceived a corpse in the morgue, and suddenly regained its popularity.
At this time, in the southern section of the city wall, Yang Miaocai also moved his hands and feet somewhat dryly, and his whole body was already soaked with cold sweat.
Just now, he thought that the Ming army could no longer withstand it and the front line was about to collapse like a mountain. However, Huang Taiji withdrew his troops at such a critical time...
this……
He, what does he mean?
Could it be that he didn’t want this victory? Didn’t he want to capture the Ming army’s positions outside the city?
Yang Miaocai was simply puzzled for a moment.
At this time, as Wang Chengen told the emperor's temporary reward, cheers of victory finally came from the Ming army's position under the city, and the cheers became more and more intense. Torches and bonfires were lit everywhere, and the victory was finally restored.
gained some vitality.
…………
It got dark quickly.
After a brief period of confusion, the Ming army quickly resumed operations.
With the lesson learned this time, it was like being slapped hard on the old face by Huang Taiji, and Governor Yuan never dared to neglect him again.
Most of the soldiers on the front line of the battle line had withdrawn to rest, but a large number of auxiliary soldiers and civilians had no time to clean up the large number of corpses in the formation, and instead rushed directly outside the Ming army's outpost defense line.
They must immediately dig the trenches filled up by the Jin army deeper and build the earthen walls higher.
We must never make such a mistake again...
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for Governor Yuan and the Ming army.
At this time~, the Hou Jin army was in formation.
To be continued...
