Beiyang new warlord

But Lu Xiangsheng did have his reasons.

"Elder-in-law, what is this place? The capital of Ming Dynasty, the place where soldiers and horses from all over the world gather! Let the horses gallop freely, what is the face of the Celestial Dynasty? How arrogant is Jianlu's arrogance? Master Wang doesn't even have the courage to fight back, it's hard to protect I will not repeat the shame of Jingkang, father-in-law! You and I will be sinners through the ages!"

The shame of Jingkang, the most humiliating scene in Chinese history, 50 soldiers guarding Bianliang, did not dare to fight the 10,000+ troops of the Jin army who came from far away, and finally had to pay the alliance under the city, which could not fill the desire of the Jin people, and even finally had to Instead of repaying the concubine, the imperial concubine, the wives and concubines of the clan, and the daughters of the ministers were converted into silver money and given to the barbarians in the golden house as slaves. Men dare not shed blood, so they have to rely on women to cry to end the war, but this is not in exchange In peace, the Jin army immediately fought back again after withdrawing, captured Bianliang, captured the two emperors of Huiqin, and destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty.

Lu Xiangsheng was speaking impassionedly, but the communication broke down, his face was gloomy, Gao Qiqian simply warned: "Your Majesty is still watching in the capital, Master Lu can do it for himself!"

Saying this, the powerful eunuch walked away with a gloomy expression.

Watching him leave, Lu Xiangsheng's face was also a bit ugly.

On the issue of war and defense, the top military commanders of the Ming Dynasty were the first to have differences and cracks.

However, Lu Xiangsheng is Lu Xiangsheng, a man who carries out his beliefs to the end. Even so, he still actively investigates and deals with the Qing army, and is ready to send troops at any time.

And this fighter came so fast.

After all, it was a lone army going deep, and it was impossible for the more than 7 Qing troops to carry food and supplies on their own. Tongzhou was stuck by the Guanning Army with high potential, and Changping had the Xuanda Army with Lu Xiangsheng. But it was also 10,000+. After a few days of confrontation in Tongzhou, even Huang Taiji became impatient and began to move around Tongzhou Changping and attack Hebei.

Just like the Sarhu War, the Qing army divided into three parts also gave the Ming army a chance.

The entire Changping Camp was tensely assembled.

Instead of mobilizing all the staff, Lu Xiangsheng’s strategy was to use surprise troops when facing Emperor Chongzhen’s questioning! Outside the pass, the Ming Empire often suffered from outside battles. It was repeatedly invaded by Jianlu spies and ambushed from behind. Now it is the Ming Empire that is fighting Fighting on the inside, here, Ming is the home field, so this advantage must be brought into play! Like the war of resistance in later generations, all kinds of strange soldiers appeared and disappeared, and the Qing army was caught off guard, so they had to be careful every step of the way, waiting for their mistakes, and praised them in one breath , This is Lu Xiangsheng's combat thinking.

Because it was a night attack by surprise soldiers, all the generals and generals brought their own soldiers and elites to fight, forming an elite death-defying commando with a total of [-] cavalry. Lu Xiangsheng's only hobby is horses. For this assault, he also used his best horse Wuming Ji rode out, the mighty phoenix-wing helmet, the strong Wenshan armor, and the horizontal knife immediately in front of the whole army. Lu Xiangsheng was full of spirit and gave orders loudly.

"The knife will see blood! People will be wounded! Horses will sweat! Those who disobey orders will be cut off!"

As soon as the promise was fulfilled, the rolling cavalry rushed out like a torrent.

The personal soldiers followed the left side of the team with a big banner, while controlling the horse and galloping in small steps, while Lu Xiangsheng asked the people around him solemnly.

"Boxiang! Has the military order to send to Eunuch Gao arrived?"

"Don't worry, Supervisor, Eunuch Gao has personally read your handwritten letter, and Chen Guowei, the commander-in-chief of Jizhen, is also leading the order. As long as we defeat the camp of Jianlu, the troops of Jizhen will follow, and Eunuch Gao's Guan Ning army will follow up. The Jiannu who must have fought were defeated for hundreds of miles and fled in embarrassment!"

"very good!"

Stopping his confidant, Fang Yang Tinglin's confident words, Lu Xiangsheng also showed a gratified expression, but soon, this expression was replaced by fighting spirit and murderous intent. Looking at the north, this literati was born The governor's eyes were as heavy as water and as bright as stars.

At this time, it was the twelfth day of October in the 11th year of Chongzhen. It has been more than half a month since the breakthrough, and there has been no decent resistance from the Ming army. Even Huang Taiji has become a lot more relaxed. As a pioneer, they first went around Changping and marched towards Yizhou, Laishui, a new city in Hebei. Tulai, Yuetuo, Yuele and others still stayed in Jizhen, Pinggu, Zunhua, and Fengrun to plunder, while Huang Taiji and Tongzhou went up and dived. The confronting Chinese army is also packing up the gold, silver, people and animals that they have snatched these days, and is preparing to march west.

The entire Qing army camp was busy and excited.

A mile from the edge of the camp, a few Mongolian light cavalrymen of the Qing army were drunk around a bonfire, gulping down the spirits they had just snatched from a nearby village. The alcohol content of milk wine is really low in this era. Dongjiang produces corn liquor, but it's not something these little soldiers can afford to drink. It's only in the land of the Han people that they can drink it like an old man.

As for the security mission?It doesn't matter, this person is as cowardly as a sheep, how dare he take the initiative to trouble the Qing army?

And when he got interested, the Mongolian ten chief was still in a good mood, and raised his wine glass to face the bright moon.

It's a pity that Fart's poem didn't come out, but a cold arrow appeared on his neck first, he turned his back, and fell to the ground dead, the Mongolian soldiers still didn't react, they were still laughing He mocked his boss for being overwhelmed with alcohol, but a few arrows like migratory locusts came down one after another. Amid the plopping sound, several other Mongolian Qingqi were lying drunk on the ground.

It was just like waking up from a dream, and the surviving Mongolian cavalrymen were sobered up from the wine, and they were about to turn around and run wildly when they got on their horses. However, the third round of arrows shrouded their heads like death!

In the late Ming Dynasty, the reason why the frontier army became more militarized was because it had to deal with the needs of the war. The big war has become a thing of the past, and it has become the norm in frontier wars to deal with the invasion of small groups of Mongols. Although a large amount of military expenditure is spent on small troops , Weakened the fighting power of the entire Ming army's frontier army, but the fighting power of this fierce soldier Jia Ding is also far stronger than that of Tong Mongolian Qingqi.

This can be regarded as doing their old job, and they are familiar with the road all the way. The [-]-year-old front battalion easily wiped out the Qing army's outer scouts.

"Ming Gouzi!"

Amidst the horrified shouts, the Qing soldiers on the edge of the fence gathered in a row in panic, controlling their bows and arrows. Amidst the sound of horses, the five bright steeds of the Chollima flew high above their heads. The last impression of the few Qing soldiers on this world was a The machete flew, and immediately the world spun violently.

A machete that weighs a hundred catties can be used. On the battlefield, a long knife that weighs ten catties is used with the heart and hands. This is Lu Xiangsheng's fighting method. He takes the lead in cutting a gap for the army, bloodthirsty like crazy Immediately afterwards, the Tianxiong army smashed the simple fence of the Qing people with maces and hammers, and chopped the Qing army's neck with a saber.

There were galloping cavalry everywhere, and the panic-stricken Qing army was chopped down layer by layer. Daming also had iron cavalry, who easily pierced through the front battalion and brandished a big knife. Huang Taiji's middle army smashed down the second fence with a huge machete, roaring like a god of war.

"kill!"

Just a few hundred meters away, Huang Taiji also rushed out of the camp suddenly, just in time to see this scene, a wave of familiar fear bloomed in his pupils.

"This person must be eliminated!"

Chapter 4 Ten. Cruelty

Blood was splashed on Wen Shanjia, a strange red color appeared in the provocative firelight, thick beard was also dripping with viscous liquid, panting violently in his mouth, he really turned into a killing god, dare to stop him Lu Xiangsheng will be killed without mercy!

Puff! The back of the knife was cut on the cotton armor. The armor was not broken, but the sternum obviously collapsed. The eyeballs of the Qing cavalry captain even protruded, and he vomited blood and fell to the side.

Turning around and slashing with the blade, with a sharp click sound, the head flew out violently, bleeding.

However, before Lu Xiangsheng could catch his breath, another group of Qing soldiers rushed forward.

Unlike Mao Jue's raid on the Daling River camp, although Mao Jue only had 5000 people, there were actually no more than [-] Huang Taiji guarding the camp, including the newly defeated Zhenglan Banner, but this time the Huang Taiji Tongzhou camp was at least There are thirty thousand!

Lu Xiangsheng's surprise strategy has worked, but the second echelon that should have responded, the troops of Chen Guowei, the chief soldier of Ji Town, did not come!The voices of shouting and fighting became more and more intense, but it was already at the end of the crossbow. Although the iron cavalry was strong, the power of the horse was also limited. They ran for dozens of miles, from Changping to Tongzhou, and the suddenness of this strategy had already been played. The horsepower was the same. Also consumed most of it.

Even Wu Mingji had already been beaten, panting heavily, and raised his sword again, with a puff, a member of the Qing army clutched his crotch to the long gap in his stomach, screamed and fell down, staggering After two steps, the two guards rushed to the front, and Lu Xiangsheng finally regained his composure.

Looking around, there was a bloody battle.

To the east, Mr. Qian desperately and crazily waved his mace desperately, but his horse could no longer run. As he roared desperately, more and more Qing Tartars surrounded him, and a big gun Picked him off from behind and disappeared.

Not far away, a Xuan Dajun and a Zhenghuang Banner had all their weapons destroyed. They pinched each other's necks and rolled over. Their will even exceeded the limit of their bodies. Seven or eight Qing army knives and axes smashed on the Xuan Dajun soldiers Moving northward, the sound of bones cracking could be heard clearly, but those hands were still pinching the tartar's neck like eagle claws, and they did not let go until both of them died.

The knives rolled, and more and more Xuanda cavalry fell off their horses. Behind them, Yang Tinglin was still powerlessly raising fire to the southeast, full of remorse and anger.

Suddenly, he seemed to be ten years older, and once again waved his big knife fiercely on the top, but Lu Xiangsheng roared angrily like a wild beast.

"Mingjin! Withdraw the troops!"

A night attack turned into a stalemate. Although hundreds of Qing troops were killed, thousands of Xuanda frontier soldiers were killed. At noon the next day, the Tongzhou Army's central camp was suddenly thrown away, scaring a lot of people. Jumping, Gao Qiqian, who was eating side dishes, suddenly raised his head, but saw Lu Xiangsheng, whose clothes were stained with blood and whose wounds were still faintly red, rushed in, his eyes were bloodshot, and he roared angrily.

"Where is Chen Guowei!"

"Oh, Mr. Lu, Mr. Chen was photographed by our family and went to the east. The capital's defense has some omissions. We can't let Jianlu disturb the Lord Long Live, right?"

Wiping his mouth, Gao Qiqian put on a warm smile, but Lu Xiangsheng's hair almost stood up when he heard it.

"Eunuch Gao, why didn't you send troops last night!"

"The Guan Ning army is the only barrier in Tongzhou of the capital, what if it loses?"

"Lord Lu, when you took office as Governor Xuan, didn't those veterans tell you the most important thing to be a frontier general? Be safe! Only be safe!"

Stunned again, he was stunned for a few seconds, Lu Xiangsheng directly clasped his fists heavily, and immediately turned around and left the tent.
