Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 872: Protect Obai

Those at the back, who were not bombarded by the Taiping army's "witchcraft" and were not trapped in the crowded Qing army, ran back without hesitation when they saw the tragic situation in front of them and the Qing soldiers who were crying and running back. There was nothing to worry about, and there were Qing troops eager to retreat everywhere. Those with horses ran directly, those without horses rushed through the crowds, and they were like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea. At this moment, Uncle Man Meng doesn't care about anything, it's his mother's most important thing to go back alive.

In the chaos, Esen, the king of Doluo County, Horqin Left Rear Banner, was thrown into chaos by a team of Han troops that had collapsed. Esen was holding the reins on his horse and was wrapped up by the Han army several dozen feet away. When he found that the Taiping army behind him no longer used artillery to use magic arts, but cavalry rushed over, a Han army suddenly turned his forehead. Sen pulled down from the horse, and then took the hilt of the knife and hit Esen's forehead with a heavy blow. When Deng Esen grasped the big bag and reacted, the Han army had already run away on his horse.

The Manchu Banner and the Mongolian Eight Banners were in disarray. Some sensible generals wanted to overwhelm the situation, at least to stabilize their positions and prevent the Taiping Army's cavalry from hiding behind them, but their efforts were to no avail. Even if it is stable here, the soldiers in other places are still running. How can those defeated soldiers who can't even settle down are willing to obey orders, so they run while the generals are not paying attention, and they will not stop.

Wu Keshan, the prince of Horqin, the uncle of the Qing emperor, was also a little panicked. When the explosion sounded just now, he seemed to see his third brother Sonomu leading the troops to charge up. Now there are dead bodies everywhere in front of him. Fear that Sonoki is dead. He wanted to take people to check it out, but the troops were defeated in all directions, and the Taiping troops who had retreated also rushed out again, and two Taiping cavalrymen rushed out from east to west. In the sight, a Taiping bandit soldiers and horses in iron armor also emerged from the smoke, and the leader of the bandits was shouting something to the armored soldiers with a big hammer.

The army was defeated like a mountain, Wu Keshan weighed the pros and cons, Sonomu was probably dead, and it would not help him to find the body. The most important thing at the moment is that he quickly leads the clan to retreat, and he must not be overwhelmed by the defeated troops. As long as he leaves the battlefield, he can always make room for recovery. If you're stuck here, it's useless to say anything.

After the banner of Prince Horqin went north in the wind, the Mongolian soldiers were even more able to escape. Those who escaped most fiercely were the Mongolian soldiers who came from outside their mouths. Just now, everyone was desperate, but now it's also you who are fighting for who will run out first.

The Outer Mongolian soldiers came from various tribes outside their mouths, and they had no concept of military discipline on weekdays. To a certain extent, they are not even as good as the coating Aha of the Eighth Banner of Manzhou. A group of Outer Mongolian soldiers on horseback ran from east to west on the battlefield, soon stirring up the already chaotic Qing army even more. The generals of the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia could not wait to slaughter all these foreign soldiers, but now they are also the mud bodhisattvas crossing the river and cannot protect themselves, so they can only withdraw as much as they can.

Since the war began, the Han army and the Green Battalion have been at the forefront as cannon fodder, and suffered heavy casualties. Half of the Han army and the Green Battalion died under the Taiping Army's "witchcraft", with a total of 2,000 people. This will be long ago that the generals do not know the soldiers, the soldiers do not know the generals, and the big guys just run away. Some Han soldiers kept looking up as they ran, lest the large cotton bales of the Taiping bandits would fall.

In fact, fewer than three or four thousand Qing soldiers died under the flying thunder cannons. This casualty was a big defeat in any battle in the Ming and Qing Dynasties in the past. But it is not enough to cause the collapse of the Qing army. After all, they have compressed the Taiping army to the Yizhen River line, and they are only the last step to victory. More importantly, the Qing army still had 30,000 to 40,000 troops at the moment, while the Taiping army was only over 10,000.

What caused the Qing army to collapse was the never-before-seen flying thunder cannon. The vacuum belt formed by the flying thunder cannon in front of the Ming and Qing dynasties and the corpses on it completely destroyed the fighting spirit of the Qing army. Fighting intent. They didn't know how far that kind of cannon could go. They just thought that they had fallen into the trap of the Taiping Army. The previous advance was just the other side deliberately letting them in, in order to shock them to death. It can be said that the Qing army was defeated by the flying thunder cannon, it is better that they were frightened by the flying thunder cannon.

Zhou Shixiang was very satisfied with the unscrupulous effect, and now it is time to mobilize the reserve team to counterattack.

3,000 cavalrymen from various towns were ordered to go to the battlefield. From Qianhu to Xiaoqi, all officers drew their swords and took the lead. Seeing that both the cavalry and the infantry of the Qing army were fleeing in front of them, how could the morale of the Taiping cavalry not be high?

The collapse of the center line made Ao Bai anxious and didn't know what to do. After seeing a large group of Outer Mongolian soldiers beating and running over, Ao Bai gritted his teeth and ordered the yellow flag beside him to go up to intercept them~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Even if this battle is really lost, Aobai will have to gather up the Mongolian soldiers, and they must not let them escape without a trace, that would be a worse disaster. More importantly, the center line collapsed, but the two flanks were not defeated. If the center line could be stabilized, this battle would be a lose-lose battle. If it could not be stabilized, the impact of the defeat would quickly affect the two flanks, causing the Qing army to lose. One-sided collapse.

The hundreds of forbidden brigade and eight banners of the Zhenghuang Banner instigated the horses to rush to the front of the group of Outer Mongolian soldiers. One of the co-leaders raised his saber and slashed a foreign Mongolian Xiaotaiji under the horse, shouting in Mongolian language to these Mongolian soldiers. Not allowed to go back. Some Mongolian soldiers restrained the horses and stared blankly at Taiji who was killed by the Manchu soldiers, while others continued to beat the horses and ran forward regardless of these Manchu soldiers. Seeing this, the full soldiers of Zhenghuangqi didn't know whether to chase after them and kill them, or let them escape.

"Follow them!"

The co-leader who killed the Outer Mongolian Xiaotaiji was very decisive, and chased after him with dozens of horses. The Outer Mongolian soldiers who were eager to escape saw that the Manchu soldiers at the back would not let them go, and some of the ones behind were fierce and fierce.

In the other two directions, there were also Manchu troops rushing in. The co-leader of Zheng Huangqi was called Domo Yu-ah. Seeing that these Mongolian soldiers dared to swing their swords towards each other, they were so angry that they were about to order their subordinates to go forward and slash them, but they heard a "whoosh" and a The sharp arrow hit the forehead of a Mongolian soldier. Before the Mengbing could figure out what was going on, he suddenly fell from his horse. There were "swoosh" sounds again. This time, not only the Mongolian soldiers but also the full soldiers were dismounted. For a while, the Mongolian soldiers and the full soldiers were stunned, not knowing where the enemy came from.

Duomo and Ah quickly woke up, he exclaimed: "Quick, go back to protect Ao Bai, the old white flag rebelled!" (To be continued.)
