In the face of the all-out attack of the Dashun army, Wu Sangui's Ming army was the first to meet the enemy, which was the firearms battalion.But the Ming army was not like Wang Shuo's musketeers, they did not know how to make the musket shoot uninterrupted, the musket charge was cumbersome, the gunpowder ratio, the production method was not right, the power was not great, and the range was very close.The Shun army approached the barrier in a round of charge, and the officers and soldiers of the Ming army's firearms battalion retreated one after another, and the non-commissioned officers of the spear battalion rushed up from behind, fighting with the Shun soldiers who approached the barrier.Cold weapons clashed, and the scene was even more tragic.The blades struck, the knives slashed into the flesh, blood flew sideways, screams and screams, and the sound became one.The Guanning Iron Cavalry is worthy of its name, the soldiers advance and retreat in an orderly manner, the swords and horses are skillful, and they do not retreat in battle to the death.The elite soldiers of Dashun are also fierce, not afraid of life and death, shouting one after another, and charging fast like a wave.Seeing that the Ming army's large array began to be chaotic and gradually defeated, the firearms battalion that ran back to the back had already changed their knives and guns, killed them again, and drove the fierce Dashun soldiers back to the west of Shihe again.The battle lasted until noon, and the north wing city was shouting and killing, and the smoke was billowing out, and it seemed that it would not be able to resist Hao Yongzhong's attack.The north wing of the city faced the North Mountain, and the wilderness could not hold on, so Leng Yundeng, the deputy general of the Ming army, could only lead the troops to defend the city.The Dashun army was under the command of Gu Kecheng, the general of Biaozuo Guoyi, and the soldiers had already set up a ladder.Hao Yongzhong took the lead and attacked the city, and the two sides fought fiercely at the head of the city.On the side of Xiluo City, the two sides are still evenly matched, fighting on both sides of the Stone River, blood flowing all over the ground, and dead bodies are pillowed.Li Zicheng watched from the dirt mountain, and said to Liu Zongmin beside him: "Transfer the cavalry over and rush to the middle of him." ”Liu Zongmin waved the yellow order flag, and in an instant, the three thousand cavalry troops in the rear of the army formation were launched.The infantry of the Shun army ran to the east and west sides, and the Dashun cavalry descended from the sky, and the waves splashed on the stone river on which they tread, and the earthquake trembled.The three thousand cavalry were like a black dragon, quickly drilling into the Ming army's military formation, the sound of horses' hooves shattered, and the sabers flew.The Ming soldiers who had been fighting all morning were exhausted, and when they saw the Dashun cavalry rushing towards them, they knew that they were invincible, so they ran backwards one after another, and the big array suddenly became chaotic.Hu Shouliang knew that he could no longer resist, and ordered the whole army to withdraw into Xiluo City.The Dashun cavalry slashed and killed the soldiers at the tail of the Ming army, and chased them to the city of Xiluo in one go.The infantry of the Shun army then followed all over the field, preparing to attack the city.Wu Sangui stood behind the battlements on Xiluo City, watching the battle under the city.Da Shun's soldiers were brave, and he couldn't help but feel cold.In the face of such an army composed of fierce soldiers, I am afraid that Shanhaiguan will not be able to hold it for a day.He sent messengers again to find Dolgon, who had arrived at great speed, and urged him to speed up his march.Then, he whispered to Hu Shouliang, and then went down to the city and went back to the main city of Shanhaiguan.After a while, a white flag was displayed on the head of Xiluo City, and a soldier shouted at the head of the city: "Don't beat us General Hu said, he doesn't want to accompany Wu Bo to die against His Majesty Dashun, he is willing to take us to surrender" Li Mou, the general of the Dashun cavalry, replied: "Open the city gate, all the soldiers come out" After a while, the city gate slowly opened, and a team of remnants of the defeated generals, covered with dust, dragged and dragged out, and slowly walked out of the city gate hole.Li Mu didn't seem to be deceitful, and slowly approached the city wall.Behind him, his cavalry also followed him towards the city wall, ready to escort the surrendered Ming army out of the city.In the past, the Shun army attacked the city garrisoned by the Ming army, which was basically like this, and after a battle, the Ming army would surrender obediently.It was already quite good that the Ming army in Xiluo City could hold out all morning, but it was impossible for Li Mu to think that the Ming army was cheating.He didn't know that at this time, on the head of Xiluo City, more than a dozen cannons had been loaded with scattered bullets, adjusted the angle, and aimed at the Dashun cavalry.The gunners visually measured the distance, and the Dashun cavalry had completely entered the cannon range.The gunner nodded to Hu Shouliang on the side, and Hu Shouliang also nodded and walked down the city wall.The gunners lit the cannon fuse, and a large white mist rose from the city.The fuse burned to the end, and more than a dozen loud "tom toms" sounded, and more than a dozen cannon muzzles burst out of fire one after another, and thousands of small iron pellets in bulk flew like raindrops to the Dashun cavalry under the city, covering them in an instant.The Dashun cavalry was caught off guard, and they were hit by the iron pellets fired by the cannons, and they fell off their horses in pieces.The general Li Mu bore the brunt of the attack, was hit by countless iron pellets, and died under the city.The infantry of the Shun army followed closely behind the cavalry, the formation was too dense, and they were also killed by iron pills in pieces, and the Shun army under the city suffered heavy losses and was in chaos.In the city, Hu Shouliang led the team to kill again, and drove the Shun army across the Shihe River, and the Shun army was defeated.Liu Zongmin was furious, and personally led his 3,000 pro-troops to break through to the death, stopping the momentum of the Ming army's attack.After this battle, the two sides attacked and defended each other on the side of Ciro City, and neither took advantage.After Li Zicheng marched to Shanhaiguan, Song Xiance in Miyun was a little restless.How could Wang Shuo be so sure that King Chuang would be defeated and the Manchus would come from Shanhaiguan He knew that Wang Shuo was a talent who commanded battles, otherwise he would not have occupied the northwest in just over a year and supported his own troops.A military commander commands a battle, sometimes limited to his ability to express himself, and cannot fully say his own reasoning, but often he is right.It relies on an intuition that precedes thinking, a sense of smell that is highly sensitive to battlefield information.Song Xiance has seen a lot of this situation.As a prince, Wang Shuo couldn't just talk nonsense to persuade him and Li Yan to go with him, and what he was probably saying was his intuition that he hadn't found a reason yet.This cannot but arouse Song Xiance's attention.If Song Xiance knew that Wang Shuo completely relied on foresight to tell him the result, he wouldn't have bothered to do so.What's wrong, let Wang Shuo think that King Chuang is going to lose, he sat alone in the military tent, looking at the map, thinking about where there were loopholes.After a long time, he really saw that something was wrong, and Tang Tong was wrong.King Chuang once showed him a letter written by Shunzhi of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to Wu Sangui, which was found by Tang Tong after he seized Shunzhi's messenger and searched it from the messenger.Judging from the map, the Manchu messenger went to Shanhaiguan to walk near a stone, but he would not pass through a stone, but passed under the pass five miles away.Tang Tong's sentinel ran to the pass so far away five miles away to do what, and then said that the messenger has a mission, he will be very careful, how can it be so coincidental, bumped into a few sentry scouts who are wandering around, Tang Tong definitely has a problem, he is misleading King Chuang, no wonder King Chuang mentioned that he wanted Tang Tong to go to Shanhaiguan to pick up the defense, he always felt that something was wrong in his heart, it turned out that the problem was here, Song Xiance was called intuition, and Wang Shuo could only know the answer in advance.He hurriedly found Li Yan and Wang Shuo, and told them his suspicions, and before these two could figure it out, he thought of one more thing, is the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Weng Hou all the strength of the Qing army If the Qing army has divided its troops from Weng Hou, and part of the main force has gone to Shanhaiguan, not many, there are 50,000 people, plus Wu Sangui's 50,000 people, then, the other party will surpass the strength of King Chuang in terms of strength:
