I also recommend a book, The Strongest Chongzhen in History, which is a relatively enjoyable book about the emperor.
Joluo Bahana's expression was gloomy and uncertain, and he whipped his riding whip hard in the air.
The battle situation was very different from what he expected.
Originally, he thought that the Han army with Shi Tingzhu and red flags was holding the west city to contain it.
If he sent the true Manchu Zhenglan Banner warriors to attack the city, he would be able to capture the north city in one fell swoop and control the entire Texas.
Who would have thought that the defenders at the top of the city were much tougher than he imagined.
At one point, the Manchurian white-armored soldiers even rushed to the top of the city.
It was supposed to be a one-sided massacre, but it was abruptly resolved by the defenders.
Dozens of white-armored soldiers were not spared.
This is incredible Is the city of Dezhou really empty of troops, with only rural soldiers and government officials defending the city?
Jolupahana doesn’t think so From the beginning of their siege, the defenders have been very calm and calm, and their responses have been in place.
This is definitely not something some new recruits can do.
Joluo Bahana believed that there must be a sharp army in Dezhou City Damn Wang Aoyong and Fang Dayou At this moment, Jolupahana was gnashing his teeth, wishing he could devour the two of them alive.
If these two men hadn't lied to the regent about the lack of troops in Dezhou, which could be defeated in one fell swoop, how could the regent send flag soldiers to capture Shandong.
The Eight Banners soldiers were the elite of the Qing Dynasty.
There were only 100,000 soldiers in total.
These 100,000 armored soldiers will definitely not be able to withstand the attrition of the Ming army if one of them dies.
That's why the regent decided to use the green battalion as the vanguard to attack and plunder.
The so-called Green Camp was actually the official army of the Ming Dynasty.
After the surrender, they were not disbanded and reorganized, but were directly led by the original general to work for the Qing Dynasty.
Take the green battalion soldiers in Jifu and Henan.
The regent asked them to go to Shanxi to fight Li Zicheng's troops in order to consume Li Zicheng's strength.
Naturally, a good job like collecting Shandong is reserved for our own people.
But now Jolupahana discovered that this was by no means a nice job, but a life-threatening drudgery.
There must be elite soldiers and horses stationed in Dezhou City.
They first showed weakness to lure them to attack the city, and then took the opportunity to consume and destroy the Qing's troops.
No, we can't attack anymore.
Now the more than 2,000 Manchurian Zhenglan Banners he brought have suffered losses of more than 30%, and the situation on Shi Tingzhu's side may be even worse.
They were not fully prepared here, and they would be at a huge disadvantage in attacking the city without siege equipment.
The best choice is to preserve the strength of the army and return to the court, and ask the regent to send more green soldiers to lead the battle.
Having made up his mind, Luo Bahana no longer hesitated and decisively ordered the troops to retreat.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The flag soldiers who heard the trumpet breathed a sigh of relief and retreated quickly.
Joluo Bahana also sent people to immediately notify the Shitingzhu tribe who were storming the West City, not to make unnecessary sacrifices and to evacuate immediately.
The execution ability of the Eight Banners soldiers was still very strong.
Except for dozens of people who were injured by stray arrows during the retreat, very few people were injured or killed.
Joluo Bahana and Shi Tingzhu gathered their flag soldiers together, made an inventory, and then turned around and set off.
Originally, they wanted to snatch back the bodies of the dead flag soldiers.
However, the Texas defenders had enough arrows, and if they tried to snatch the bodies, they would be shot intensively, which was too risky.
In desperation, Jolupahana could only give up this idea and preserve his vitality as much as possible.
Texas, I remember it, it won’t be long before I come back again.
At that time, the city will be destroyed in one fell swoop, and no chickens or dogs left in the city will be slaughtered.
I promise Joluo Bahana secretly swore in his heart.
"The Tatars have retreated.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
The Tatars have retreated" The Ming troops at the top of the city were all rejoicing and waving their fists excitedly.
Qin Gongming looked solemn and said nothing.
He could understand the mood of the soldiers at this moment.
In the minds of ordinary soldiers, the Eight Banners soldiers were not only cruel and brutal, but also extremely powerful and invincible.
Now that they have defeated the flag soldiers and defended Dezhou City with their own efforts, how can they not be happy?
A great victory in Dezhou, the news of the victory was sent to the court, the emperor was delighted, and the soldiers would be rewarded as a matter of course.
No matter how you look at it, this is a huge happy event.
But Qin Gongming felt a little regretful.
His original plan was to have King Zhu Shuaiqin of Qing pretend to surrender, so that when the Qing army entered the city, he would launch a surprise attack and annihilate them all.
However, Zhu Shuaiqin was worried that the false surrender would arouse the suspicion of the court and firmly disagreed.
Qin Gongming had no choice but to retreat and do the next best thing, waiting for the Qing army to take the initiative to attack the city.
He asked the soldiers to hold on to the walls and clear the fields, and to stay in the city, giving the Qing army the illusion that Texas' military strength was empty.
In this way, the Qing army will definitely attack the city without hesitation.
Qin Gongming was naturally confident in holding Dezhou.
But what he wanted to do was not only to hold Texas, but also to consume as many Qing troops as possible.
The number of Eight Banners elites is limited, and if one of them dies, it will be impossible to effectively replenish them in a short period of time.
If these more than 5,000 Eight Banners soldiers could be wiped out, it would definitely be a huge blow to the Qing court.
But this was not something Qin Gongming could do alone.
He also needed the "cooperation" of the Qing generals.
However, Luo Bahana was very cautious and directly chose to retreat after weighing the situation.
In this way, this Qing army still retained a lot of strength.
If the 20,000 people under Qin Gongming's command are all elite soldiers such as white pole soldiers, they can also choose to go out of the city to pursue them.
However, most of his subordinates are regiment-trained rural soldiers, who can still defend the city.
Fighting with the Eight Banners soldiers in the field is basically a matter of death.
Therefore, Qin Gongming could only watch as Jueluo Bahana and Shi Tingzhu led their troops to evacuate.
After this battle, I believe that the Qing government will have a new understanding of Shandong's reality and reality, and its emphasis on Shandong will also increase accordingly.
There is no guarantee that it will not make adjustments to its military strength.
If it tilts its forces to the east and wants to capture Shandong first, the garrison pressure on Qin Gongming and Gao Jie will also increase greatly.
But these are not issues that need to be considered immediately.
Now that he had just won a great victory, what Qin Gongming had to do was to send people to count the heads of the Qing soldiers, and then report the victory to the court.
Since the fall of the capital in March and the death of the late emperor, the imperial court has been under great pressure, and bad news comes almost every day.
Although the princes in the court did not say anything, they actually had no idea in their hearts.
At this time, a big victory is really needed to cheer people up.
The victory of the Texas Defense War is not only related to the gains and losses of one city and one place, but also will affect the entire world war situation.
This battle broke the myth that the Eight Banners army was invincible, allowing the emperor and his ministers to stand upright and fight the Donglu to the end.
After all, the Ming Dynasty was founded three hundred years ago, and there is no doubt that Zhengshuo is the place in the minds of the people.
Now Li Zicheng is in dire straits and is guarding Guanzhong, while Zhang Xianzhong is retreating to Sichuan.
In other words, the Ming Dynasty in the south had the strength to compete with the Donglu.
As long as the imperial court can show the determination and strength to protect its people, people's hearts will tend to be inclined to the imperial court and be used by it
