The Northern Mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty was located on the plain and was guarded by the clan Bran, led by 25,000 Manchurian dependents and clothed minions.Although these people are not serious Eight Banner soldiers, their combat power should not be underestimated.A few decades later, during the rebellion of the three feudatories, the Manchu Qing army all marched south, and the north was empty.The Mongol Chahar king, Bulni, the grandson of Lin Dan Khan, believed that the time had come to break away from the Qing army, and in the 15th year of Kangxi (1676), he rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and proclaimed himself "after the Great Yuan" and marched into Beijing.At that time, the elite of the Qing army went to quell the rebellion of the three feudatories, and there were no elite soldiers around the Jingshi, which frightened the Manchu court and almost gave up the Jingshi.It can be seen from this that the Manchurian dependents and the clothed slaves still have a certain combat power, but they are not an army after all, and they are not all young and strong, half of them are old and weak, women and children, and their strength is greatly reduced.This made the defenders of Zhaoling still feel pressured when facing the surrender of the 20,000 green battalions.Unlike Tangling, Zhaoling was not built on a hill, but on a plain, which made the old and weak women and children of Bran and the Qing army have no geographical advantage to rely on.On the wall of the mausoleum, the women and children of the Qing army saw that the coalition troops in the distance were all nervous.Bran pulled out his waist knife and suddenly roared angrily: "Emperor Taizong is behind him, I can't retreat!"
Fight to the death!
”The families of the Eight Banners in the mausoleum, as well as the clothed minions, suddenly had red eyes, roared in unison, and clenched their weapons tightly, and the mausoleum was filled with a tragic atmosphere.At this time, the coalition army formed a horizontal formation in the wilderness, Tang Tong, Li Benshen, Li Qisheng, Han Zhaoxuan and other generals drew their swords, pointed forward, and 20,000 green battalion soldiers surrendered, and pressed towards Zhaoling, the support point of the Qing army's western front.On the Eastern Front, 80,000 Korean troops and 10,000 Japanese soldiers fought against 18,000 Qing troops, and the strength of the coalition army was close to five times that of the Qing army, which was very confusing.On the Western Front, Zhao Ming only held 20,000 Green Battalion troops and 10,000 elites from Donghai Town, a total of 30,000 troops.At this time, there were 25,000 Qing troops guarding Zhaoling on the Western Front, and in addition, Hong Chengchou still had 17,000 men and horses in the Qing army camp.Although the coalition troops were twice as large as the Qing army, most of them were North Korean troops, and the North Koreans were pulling the hind legs, and the strength advantage of the coalition army was not obvious."
Report, Lord Zhongtang, 20,000 rebels attack Zhaoling!"
The Qing army sent a message to the cavalry, flew off their horses, and constantly transmitted the latest news on the battlefield.Bayan suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "In this way, Zhao Zamao only has 10,000 horses and horses that have not moved!"
On the Eastern Front, Zhao Zamao invested 90,000 people, but most of them were Koreans.On the Western Front, Zhao Zamao invested 20,000 soldiers, but they were the elite soldiers of the Green Battalion.Generally speaking, when the two armies face each other, they are all seeking to break through one wing first, what does Zhao Zamao mean by this, and which side is he attacking?
Is it so hard that he wants to go hand in hand and break through the left and right wings at the same time?
”The Ming army invested 90,000 troops in the east, the momentum was extremely terrifying, and the mountains were all over the mountains and fields towards the figure of Donglin climbing to the top of Shizui Mountain, and the coalition army was densely packed, which made the Qing army feel frightened, but most of these tens of thousands of coalition troops were the Korean army with extremely poor combat effectiveness.On the other side, less than 20,000 green battalions surrendered to the west of Zhaoling, although their number was small, less than the defenders of 5,000 people, but they were all the original Ming Dynasty's nine-sided elite soldiers.This made many generals puzzled for a while, the layout of the coalition army, the east and west fronts, can pose a threat to the defenders, but the threat is far from enough, and there is a lack of fire.Bayan and the others don't understand, where is Zhao Zamao going to attack?
Everyone only felt that both the eastern and western fronts were threatened, but the strength of the threat was not enough.Hong Chengchou heard this, stood up, and quickly calculated in his heart, he took a few steps back and forth, and then suddenly sneered: "No matter which side he is attacking, Zhao Zamao only has 10,000 people left now, but there are still more than 17,000 people in the main hall, as long as you stare at Zhao Zamao's 10,000 people!"
”At this time, outside the Zhaoling Tomb in the west, 20,000 troops were surrendered, soldiers wearing heavy armor, holding war swords, carrying shields and walking in front, advancing like a wall, and a large number of spearmen, archers, and bird gunners behind followed the climate and approached Zhaoling two miles away.On the wall of the mausoleum, the artillery of the Qing army roared, raising clouds of smoke and dust, and the cannonballs whistled and fell into the surrendering formation, splashing the fluffy soil immediately.Under the artillery bombardment of the Qing army, Tang Tong and others angrily shouted at their subordinates to maintain the formation, and the army continued to advance forward.It can be seen that this surrendered army is not a false appearance, under the shelling, replaced by ordinary men and horses, it will definitely form a riot, but the 20,000 Qing troops surrendered to the army, still maintained a fairly intact formation, following the rhythm of the drum, beating the shield, shouting loudly, and marching forward with neat steps.At this time, the artillery of the surrendered general was also dragged forward, and the gunner quickly loaded and fired a cannon.The coalition artillery was fiercely hindered, and the shells shot out extremely quickly, raising a cloud of smoke and dust.Zhao Ming saw from the clairvoyant mirror that the wall of Zhaoling was hit by a cannonball, and immediately raised a puffy smoke and dust, and the wall of the Qing army's mausoleum was not as strong as the city.The cannonballs smashed, the smoke and dust were filled, and the courtyard wall was directly smashed out of holes by the cannonballs, which made the Qing army's defense full of holes."
Good!"
Zhao Ming accepted the clairvoyant mirror and couldn't help but admire.At this time, Tang Tong and the others suddenly roared angrily, "Brothers, rush!
”The Qing army, which originally attacked the shield with a knife and advanced slowly, suddenly rushed wildly and rushed directly to Zhaoling, which was a hundred steps away, "Kill!"
”Behind the wall of the mausoleum, the Manchurian women and children bent their bows in unison, pointed the arrows diagonally at the sky, and then released the arrows together.
In the sound of strings, countless arrows rose into the air, and the sky was dark."
Raise your shield!"
Almost at the same time, Tang Tong shouted urgently, and saw the coalition troops all raising their shields, and at this moment, arrows fell from the sky like flying locusts.The allied soldiers continued to move forward, and soon the soldiers in the front row jumped over the trench, rushed to the wall of the mausoleum, and stormed the Zhaoling from the gap made by the shells.The Qing army's dependents and coats, used their bodies to block the hole smashed by the shells, the allied soldiers scorched up, the two sides faced each other, face to face squeezed together, all kinds of weapons flew up and down, blood and flesh splashed, and the sky and the earth changed color, and the sun and the moon were gone!
The coalition soldiers rushed to the wall, spears pierced, swords slashed, and the shouts and wails of the Qing army and the coalition soldiers rose to the sky.At the beginning of the battle, it entered an extremely fierce stage, the sound of weapons clashing, and the blood that shot up, aroused the boundless killing intent of the two soldiers, and both sides were like fierce beasts, wanting to kill each other.()
