But Tan Tai understood very well that this battle was related to the Qing court's strategy in Jiangnan. If you were not careful, the Qing army would be trapped in a quagmire and it would be difficult to extricate itself.

So he left behind his personal grievances and led his army to attack him with all his might.

Tan Tai and He Hehui (this is also the authentic Inlaid White Banner. Because he was from Huang Taiji to attack Ming, and was surrounded by Jinzhou, and because of his merits, he was appointed as the Emperor of Zhenghuang Banner, Gushan, Mongolia), they all commanded the Qing army to fight on Jiangxin Island.

Now, the Danzhe has fallen into the Qing army's bag. Tan Tai ordered He Luo to cross the river and enter the Danzhe to command the Qing army nearby to manage the surrounding areas.

He Hehui was one of the eight Gushan Ezhens of the Qing Dynasty. He was experienced and extremely brave in battle. This is also the reason why he became one of the eight Gushan Ezhens of the Qing army after his father died in battle. In just seven years, he became one of the eight Gushan Ezhens of the Qing army.

And Tan Tai and He Luohui were not originally guided by Jiangnan, but should have been sent to the northwest.

It was Wu Zheng who recaptured the ten prefectures in Jiangnan that attracted the attention of the Qing court, and they were sent to Jiangbei.

He Luohui had outstanding achievements in combat, but he was still at Gushan Ezhen. It was not his origin and lack of qualifications. He was really not good at planning. Simply put, he was brave but not a general. This was Dorgon's private comment to him.

Of course, it is enough for such people to lead the army to charge into battle in the era of cold weapons.

As He Luo joined the Dantu, the Qing army of Dantu had reached a total of 12,000 people.

However, with the guide to Dagang, Angang and other places to the east, the total number of Qing troops defending the city was more than 6,000.

This is not much different from the more than 5,000 people under Wu Zheng's troops, and it is evenly matched.

Wu Zheng led his troops to investigate when he was thirty miles away from Dantu, and was found by the Qing army scouts.

This is nothing strange. If the Qing army scouts did not discover it in advance on such a large scale, the Qing army would probably not be able to enter the pass for another hundred years.

Wu Zheng had no idea of ​​concealing his whereabouts, snatching time and regaining his disciples, and there was no possibility of taking any tricks, so he had to spend money and fill in his lives.

Wu Zheng was even ready to fight to the death. This battle was to destroy the arrogance of the Qing army, so that they would be afraid of spreading to the surrounding area easily.

But at this moment, something strange happened.

The Qing army scouts found out that thousands of Ming troops were heading towards Dantu and had approached thirty miles outside the city.

If it is an ordinary guard, you should send a message to Shangguan and then order the whole city to be on guard, horses and soldiers to go to the wall to organize defense.

But He Luohui was different. He really looked down on the Ming army. No wonder He Luohui had never been defeated by the Ming army since the Qing army entered the pass.

If he loses last time, he will not underestimate the enemy so much.

He Luo will order to take the initiative to fight the invading Ming army.

The problem is that He Luohui had no cavalry at this time, and all the cavalry were sent to guide the counties and ports in the east.

However, he led the Qing army in the city and bravely fought against the Ming army.

In fact, in terms of military strength, the Qing army still had the advantage, and in terms of practical combat skills, this miscellaneous new army under Wu Zheng was indeed not the same.

Even in terms of the commanders of the two armies, even if Wu Zheng is young and strong, He Luohui is in his early forties and his physical fitness has declined. Wu Zheng and He Luohui fight alone, but Wu Zheng cannot take much advantage.

But after all, the two armies are not fighting alone. The Qing army's individual skills are no longer able to resist the hot projectiles.

You compete with me in combat power, I compete with you in strategy, you compete with me in strength, I compete with you in weapons... It's that simple.

Wu Zheng was indeed shocked when he learned from the scout that the Qing army opened the city gate to fight.

He thought that the Qing army went out of the city to fight the cavalry. The bloody price paid to annihilate the 1,000 cavalry outside Danyang City was still in Wu Zheng's mind. Although the battle showed that the army had won, the number of people killed in the battle was far more than that of the Qing army.

If it weren't for this battle, Wu Zhengzhen would have led his army to turn around and go back to Danyang.

Wu Zheng did not dare to enter and immediately ordered the formation on the spot, with the spearmen in front and the musketeers behind, and the cavalry protected the two wings, which was a perfect match.

This is a chance for the Qing army to correct their mistakes. As long as He Luo has a little sobering, the result of the battle situation is likely to be rewritten.

According to the truth, when He Luo learned that the Ming army stopped advancing and was in place, he should have understood that the sudden nature of the battle had been lost, that is, both sides knew that the other party already knew the other party's existence, and the next was a field offensive and defensive battle.

This kind of battle can only be consumed, and the battle is morale and weapons.

For normal generals, this will be avoided as much as possible except for the last resort.

No one's life was picked up, right?

But He Luohui, who was self-reliant in his courage, gave up this opportunity.

In his opinion, if you kill me, the Ming army will collapse. Haven’t the Ming army been like this for many years?

You know, what he was most proud of was the battle to capture Hong Chengchou, defeating 10,000 Ming troops with 400 people, and capturing the enemy commander. What a glorious battle?

He heard that the other party was Duke Zhenguo, He Luo would inevitably want to recreate the glory of the day.

The battle started under He Luohui's brazen order.

Only then did Wu Zheng realize that the Qing army was coming from the infantry... Wu Zheng was dumbfounded and looked up at the sky. God, did you do it on purpose? Are you also favoring the Han people in the world? You can't bear to have the Han people enslaved?

Wu Zheng immediately changed his tactics and ordered the spearmen to detour on both wings. The musketeers stepped forward to pick up the enemy, and ordered the cavalry to detour from left and right, and to block the enemy's retreat.

The mobilization of thousands of people took time. In fact, at this time, the Qing army discovered some abnormalities.

He Luohui also discovered it.

But this cannot change He Luo's obsession with capturing the enemy's commander and the enemy's dynasty's Duke.

Moreover, it is indeed not uncommon for both armies to change tactics and formations at any time when facing the enemy.

Even if you have cavalry to encircle both wings of our army, so what?

I just have to lead my army to defeat your central army, and you still have to collapse?

He Luohui probably wanted to make a concerted effort to defeat Wu Zhengzhong's army, and then return with great victory, adding a strong mark to his lifelong military achievements.

So He Luo would personally send these thousands of Qing soldiers on the road of no return.

This is a massacre without any room for counterattack.

Unlike cavalry charges, no matter how fast the infantry runs, it cannot withstand the firing of the projectile. The most important thing is that infantry lacks impact power and cannot be like cavalry. Even if the rider is killed, the war horses will still cause huge damage to the opponent's array.

Of course, the speed is determined.

The cavalry charges faster than the loading speed of musketeers, but the infantry cannot do it.

They were massacred in groups in rows, and Qing soldiers sometimes pulled their bows and wanted to fight back, but the problem was that the arrows were not enough to reach them when they were far away. They were close, and before they could pull the bows, a row of projectiles were shot.

In half a stick of incense, the battle is over.

Within three miles, there are rows of piles of corpses.
