Beiyang new warlord

Page 487

Amidst the sound of the horn, a large group of the mighty Zhenghuang Banner Cavalrymen split out again, and several Niu Lu roared and rushed forward, and the battle was once again bloody.

But the Ming army in front of him was crazy, and he didn't care about his own life at all. Even if he was pierced, he still had to smash his spear into the enemy's chest. Huang Taiji saw a man wearing a Two blood holes were opened, and the lunatic of the Ming army who fell off the horse with half a spear dragged forward with the hooves of a yellow-flag cavalryman. fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty! General Turai!"

Also looking at the sweat on his forehead, Fan Wencheng pointed forward hastily, among the cavalry, the Ming general shot a straight shot into the chest of a real yellow-flagged cow with a forehead, and the devil picked him up alive like a demon god, and grabbed him. In this gap, Tulai's despicable dash accelerated, and the saber went straight to Cao Bianjiao's head fiercely to chop off.

Seeing that Cao Bianjiao was about to decapitate, at this juncture, a loud shout sounded from the side, and while Huang Taiji was sweating on his forehead and dripping with blood from his nose, another Ming army officer desperately jumped off his horse and blocked it with his body. With this fatal cut, the two immediately rolled and fell under the horse's hoof.

The Zhenghuangqi Jingqi who lost his command couldn't stop it!

Huang Taiji couldn't calm down anymore, his fat face was full of emotion, he looked around in disbelief, Fan Wencheng was also horrified to the extreme, and shouted orders in horror.

"Protect the Emperor!"

Amid the sound of thumping and heavy footsteps, the heavy infantry of the Qing Dynasty ran out from two columns, and quickly set up a human wall in front of the imperial court. Hu He lowered his spear and raised his spear horizontally, and ruthlessly blocked it forward.

It was really the end of the crossbow. The remaining thirty or forty Ming cavalry crashed into the spear array, and the horses fell down one after another. It was a non-stop melee, and a wave of chaos seemed to be unstoppable from the front to the back.

He was already out of breath, and there were two or three scars on his body that were as deep as the bone. If it was an ordinary person, he might have collapsed long ago, but Cao Bianjiao has such an unbelievable spirit. He lost it, and a goose-winged knife in his hand was chopped jagged, but he kept chopping forward. Amidst the sound of clicking, another Qing soldier fell back limply with fear.

Finally, the light appeared in front of his eyes, Huang Taiji's imperial flag and his stunned face clearly appeared in Cao Bianjiao's eyes, and a ferocious but satisfied smile finally appeared on his blood-stained face, but before he mustered the last bit of strength, The sound of puffing came suddenly, and two bloody spears pierced into his body fiercely, and protruded from his chest.

The last two soldiers guarding behind him had already used their bodies to block the spear for him and died in the last second!

In the end, Lao Tzu was killed behind his back?

Full of anger and unwillingness, he looked at the bloody spear thrown from his chest. The next second, Cao Bianjiao roared wildly, and threw the wild goose-winged knife at Huang Taiji fiercely.

Kacha, the knife smashed in front of Huang Taiji's horse, causing Huang Puma to hoof violently.

Plopping~ After the last drop of blood was shed, this general who had devoted his life to the Ming Dynasty for two generations fell to his knees with wide-eyed glaring eyes.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Fan Wencheng and more than a dozen people screamed and helped, Huang Taiji staggered off the horse, but his eyes were always looking at the direction the knife was coming from. In his mind, the battle of the Daling River was fierce and the Dongjiang army was rushing forward like a tiger. The fear he brought was discovered again, and for a long time, he couldn't say a word.

There are warriors shouting! Daqing, is there really any hope of winning the championship?

It is a pity that among the 13 Ming army, there is only such a Cao Bianjiao.

Regardless of the comrades behind them, relying on the blood of their comrades, tens of thousands of people fled Songshan in despair. After running for several hours, the exhausted Ming army sat on the beach panting.

The war horses were so tired that they vomited white foam and knelt on the ground. The chief culprit of this incident, Datong General Soldier Wang Pu was also panting like a dog and mingling among the soldiers. He gasped for a few seconds. Rejoicing, I looked back and watched.

But this luck didn't last long, and suddenly someone yelled in horror.

"Tartar!

The sound of heavy footsteps shook the ground, and on the horizon, as if crawling out of hell, the dark knights faced the bright moon and raised their sabers, charging straight at the exhausted and hopeless Ming army.

Shocked and speechless, Wang Pu's eyes were full of fear

4 Chapter sixty.

The capital, Qianqing palace.

Even in the middle of the night, the lights here are still on. Chen Xinjia, Chen Yan, Wei Dezao, and Zhang Sizhi, the Shoufu University scholar who was put to death by the Chongzhen Emperor after sitting, is the No. .14 Shoufu University Bachelors.

But a group of pillars of the country, the core of the entire Ming Dynasty gathered together, but they were unknown and silent, and under the bright lights, they wished that everyone could hide their faces in the shadows. Although they were kneeling and worshiping, this scene was Emperor Chongzhen was furious.

After a long while, he jumped up violently just now, roaring and roaring.

"About Kaifeng, don't you gentlemen have a word to teach me?"

Sun Chuanting's prophecy really hovered over the Ming Dynasty like a curse. Last month, Fu Zonglong, the former Minister of the Ministry of War who had just been released from prison and served as the governor of the three sides, died in a fierce battle in Xiangcheng. Chongzhen transferred the three sides in 11 years The disadvantages of soldiers stationed in the east and going south were fully revealed. Li Zicheng, who became bigger, was like a rampaging wild boar. The two great Shaanxi generals, the dragon and the tiger, fled westward. Only honest and pragmatic, Fu Zonglong, who had been rehabilitated by Emperor Chongzhen for 14 years and was even brought out of prison, died in battle like a warrior.

Li Zicheng, who had returned from victory, rushed to Kaifeng aggressively for the second time. He was so frightened that Kaifeng City was sending urgent documents one after another to the capital, and Emperor Chongzhen couldn't sit still.

But the elites of the Ming Dynasty were recruited overnight, and what they got was such silence.

It is no wonder that the emperor is not angry.

But even though Chongzhen was furious, the elites of the Ming Dynasty remained silent for a few more seconds. Under the pressure of everyone's eyes, Zhang Sizhi, a scholar of the First Assistant University, kowtowed with great difficulty.

"Your Majesty, our army is not short of men and horses, and the soldiers are disadvantaged. We really lack a strong commander and lack of coordination. For example, in the battle of Xiangcheng, it was as fierce as a tiger. He Renlong and other Shaanxi divisions were defeated. The governor of the three sides, Fu Zonglong, was alone on the battlefield. Thousands of people compete against hundreds of thousands, how can they be undefeated!"

"These vulgar warriors who don't know the general idea!"

When mentioning this, Emperor Chongzhen vaguely thought of someone in Liaodong, and even snorted angrily, then looked at Zhang Sizhi and motioned him to continue.

The senior scholar of the First Assistant University was in his seventies and eighties, and his head was knocked on the ground. The beads of sweat on his wrinkled forehead seemed to be more permeable, and his voice seemed to slow down a bit.

"Among all the armies in the Central Plains, Zuo Ping's army is in full swing, and his status is higher than that of the generals. As long as Zuo Liangyu's army can be controlled, the rest of the army can basically be controlled properly!"

"Back then, Zuo Liangyu was a former sergeant in Hou Xun's tent. He was promoted by Hou Xun and recommended as a promotion. Afterwards, he served in the army, experienced military exploits, and accumulated meritorious service. This is how Zuo Liangyu is today. Hou Xun's respect for Zuo Liangyu has the grace of rebuilding, Zuo Liangyu is also a gracious person, if Hou Xun is appointed as governor of the five provinces, Zuo Liangyu will definitely obey his orders, as long as the army of suppressing bandits is commanded by his arm, there will be no danger of trespassing."

This suggestion was more pertinent and practical, and Chongzhen couldn't help but nodded when he heard it, pondered for a moment, and then asked.

"Where is Hou Xun? Send him to see me!"

"Return, return to Your Majesty, Hou Xun, the former Minister of the Household Department, is here, awaiting trial in the prison"

No wonder Zhang Sizhi was so hesitant. Emperor Chongzhen himself was embarrassed when he heard this. He was not professional in employing people, but he was arbitrary. The chaos was so great, but there was no one available in the court, and Emperor Chongzhen had to bear the main responsibility.

But even if it is embarrassing, it must be used when pushed to the extreme, just like what Chongzhen muttered when he released Fu Zonglong from the sky prison a while ago, I appointed him with guilt, he should ignore the past and work hard for me yes.This time Chongzhen also nodded in embarrassment.

"Call him out of prison! Attack and see me!"

"Old minister obeys!"

Seeing Chongzhen nodding, the old fellows finally breathed a sigh of relief. Tonight's imperial meeting seemed to be able to be prevaricated, but at this juncture, the eunuch Wang Chengen suddenly hurried, holding a military newspaper He broke into the door, and immediately knelt down on the ground fiercely.

"Jinzhou Battle Report!"

The expressions of the several cabinet ministers were even more relaxed. When the war was raging in the Central Plains, it was going smoothly outside the customs. Zhang Ruolin and Ma Shaoyu kept sending good news. It must be another victory for Hong Chengchou. , Transfer Hong Bu back to the Central Plains, and the robbers should not be a worry!

In the same way, he didn't pay attention to Wang Chengen's terrified eyes. Emperor Chongzhen smiled and took the booklet presented by the little eunuch, and nodded with a smile while flipping through it.

"If everyone acts like humming nine, what about me, how about it?"

Before finishing his compliments, the emperor who was looking at the military report in hand was completely stunned. A few seconds later, he staggered and fell back onto the dragon chair violently. Trembling unceasingly, staring at the front with incomparably dull and empty eyes.

"emperor!"

The three souls and seven souls were almost scared out, and several court officials and eunuchs hurriedly crawled to Emperor Chongzhen on their knees, grabbed his thigh suddenly, and screamed in horror.

Another war that could have been won, but the impetuous emperor intervened, and the civil servants and supervisors who didn't understand the military obstructed it, and the defeat was like water!
