Chapter 131 Night Battle (4)

Azig, Nikan fled north with his cavalry.

Ajige knew that if he had to pass Wuyi Mountain, there would inevitably be a bloody battle because there was a small group of Ming troops there.

Knowing that there is danger, he still has to withdraw. He can only hope that the small Ming army ambushed in Wuyi Mountain did not make arrangements soon, or did not dare to attack him.

He also knew that this possibility was extremely small, but it was better than staying here and waiting to die. What if he escaped by chance, wouldn’t he have a life?

At this time, there was still an hour before dawn. It was pitch black all around and the road was difficult to tell. In order to see the road clearly, Ajigeling set off a torch and moved forward as fast as possible.

However, I can't get up even if I want to be fast. From time to time, there are stones and dead trees blocking the road. The Qing soldiers who were opening the road had to dismount again and again to clear the roadblocks, and then advance again.

Just like this, the Ming army chasing behind was getting closer and closer, and Ajige could hear the dull sound of horse hooves.

If it were in the past, he would have the confidence to defeat them no matter how many Ming troops had, but now he was trapped and defeated, and the confidence of the soldiers was severely hit. It is not advisable to fight again at this time, and escape their lives first.

So, he became more and more anxious and kept urging: "Hurry, hurry up!"

When the team entered the valley, Ajige felt frightened and kept praying in his heart: "I see you, I see you, Ming army, don't notice it."

"Report! Lord Commander, the road ahead was blocked by a stone wall, and the Ming army was guarding it behind it."

I was really afraid of anything I was going to get. Just as Ajig was muttering in his heart, the former army sent someone to repay him.

"Hurry up, get off the horse and hide!" Azig quickly ordered.

There was a recess in the nearby mountain walls of Ajig, Nikan and Doron. As soon as the three of them hid in, they heard the sound of "rumbling" coming from the mountain. The stones and wood rolled down. The Qing soldiers and war horses who were unable to hide were hit one after another. Some were smashed to their brains, while others became meat cakes. The sound of the horses neighing filled the entire valley, which seemed so shrill and terrifying in the dark.

Azig closed his eyes in pain. No matter how strong your combat power is, your flesh and blood body is hit by lifeless dead objects such as stones and rolling wood, which are irresistible.

The Ming army had applied geographical advantages to the extreme. It can be foreseeable that in a short time, the valley was in a short while.

"Sir, you can't sit there and wait for death. Although there is a Mingdo guarding the valley entrance ahead, the defense will inevitably be weak. As long as you eliminate them, you can break a way out." Duolong said.

Duolon and six Bayalas stood outside. They saw that besides the stones and rolling wood, rockets fell from the sky, igniting the rolling wood and dead branches on the valley road, and the valley road was as clear as day. If they didn't find a way to rush out, and wait for the fire to burn the people all over the ground, the horses and the corpses, they would have only one way to die.

"Yes, yes, it's reasonable. Doron, go and do it immediately, hurry up." Azigddoron reminded him, and immediately woke up and quickly ordered.

Duolon quickly ordered his two subordinates to go and do it immediately.

The two Bayala immediately ran forward against the mountain wall.

There was a whistle guarding the entrance of the valley, one hundred and twenty-five people.

Du Yonghe had already accurately judged Li Chengdong's intentions when the Ming army launched a harassment war against the Qing soldiers, so he ordered a stone wall to be piled up at the most dangerous place, as long as the Qing soldiers' horses were blocked, the Ming army was ambushed behind the stone wall without showing its head, and shoot arrows outwards in the pre-standed shooting holes, without any accidents, and not too many people were needed.

So, he ambushed a sentry behind the stone wall, and the main force was on both sides of the mountain, just prepare more stones and wood.

If Du Yonghe's arrangement cannot be considered wrong, he did not expect that the Qing soldiers would have the most elite Bayala.

Two Bayalas carefully avoided the stone rain on the mountain and quickly followed the mountain wall to the front of the stone wall. Except for the Qing soldiers trying to climb over the stone wall, there was less rain of stone rain, wood rain, and arrow rain.

Two Bayalas jumped up, both climbed over the stone wall, and rushed towards the Ming army with their swords. The Qing soldiers cooperated with Bayala and quickly organized a counterattack. After a meal, the Ming army guarding the wall was completely solved. The two Bayalas immediately called on the Qing soldiers to tear off the stone wall and clear the road.

When Du Yonghe reacted, Ajig, Nikan and more than 500 cavalrymen had already rushed away.

...

It was already dawn. Du Yonghe came behind the stone wall and saw the body of the Ming army on the ground. He slapped his forehead with hatred: "Why am I so stupid? Why don't I put more people here?"

"General, it's not your fault. Bayala of the Tartar is too powerful. No matter how many people are placed, they are not enough to kill them. Judging from the following mark, people should not be released here. They should make some wood and put oil here, and light it with rockets to form a wall of fire. Even if the Tartars have the ability of Ritian, he will not be able to get through." Chen Xian said.

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I just thought of the mark..."

"Okay, please restrain your brothers' bodies and clean up the battlefield. I'll go to see the general."

...

A big victory made Li Chengdong very excited.

The Zhengbai Banner was 7,500 people, and five thousand were wiped out in one battle, which was equivalent to destroying the Zhengbai Banner. Such victory can be said to have never been seen since Nurhaci started the army.

Looking at all the famous generals of the Ming Dynasty, who has achieved such a brilliant record? Only I, Li Chengdong, can do it.

"Hehe, this time I guess an earl has got it." Li Chengdong thought happily.

"Master, a total of 300 war horses and countless weapons were seized in this battle, including 5,000 taels of gold and 18,000 taels of silver." Yuan Pengnian came to report the results of the battle.

"The Tartars are not very clever in plundering, they are just that?" Li Chengdong said happily.

Why does this sound so awkward? Do you want the Tartars to plunder the people and plunder them a little more ruthlessly?

Yuan Pengnian frowned and advised: "Master, please be careful."

Li Chengdong was stunned and then laughed: "Hahaha, you are so careful. Why? This is what the emperor said after hearing this, will he cure the general's crime?"

Yuan Pengnian looked at Li Chengdong's shaking eyebrows and thought to himself: "What's wrong with the coach? Could it be that a victory makes him proud? It would be dangerous to continue like this."

Well, for the sake of my colleagues, please remind me a few words. If you listen to him or not, just do your best.

"Master, the old saying is good. If you are proud and unhappy, you will not speak quickly. The emperor is extremely wise, so it is better to be cautious."

"You literati, you literati are too careful. After a battle, the white flag was destroyed. Such a big victory not only greatly encouraged the morale of the people, but also sat on the dragon throne more steadily. Can't you laugh a few times?" Li Chengdong shook his head and said.

When Yuan Pengnian saw that he was indifferent, he knew that this man had a proud heart and could not listen to others' words.

I have fulfilled my duties as a subordinate and a friend. Whether I listen or not is not something I can control.

"Xiaomei, I'm telling the army to retreat to Shaowu City to rest and ask the prefect Wang to come to Shaowu to discuss the next military situation."
