Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Jay Chou's army continued to march towards the capital.

    And Ordo, who was defeated by Jay Chou, fled with the remaining soldiers all the way back to the Houjin Army camp outside the capital.

    Many Houjin generals were shocked by Ordo's return.

    They never thought that Ordo, who led the elite troops of the two blue flags, could be defeated by the enemy.

    You must know that these two blue flags are the absolute elite of Houjin.

    It is not comparable to those weak surrendered troops.

    The Jin Kingdom was able to establish itself and maintain its competitiveness against the Ming Dynasty for so many years, relying on the elites of the Eight Banners.

    Although the Two Blue Flags are only part of the Eight Banners, they must not be underestimated.

    And because the Houjin Eight Banners have continuously won victories, they have developed a strong message and fighting will.

    Who would have thought that they could still meet their opponents and fail.

    Therefore, what happened to Ordo surprised many Houjin generals.

    Ordo returned to the camp. The armor on his body was askew, and even his ¡®lightning rod¡¯ helmet didn¡¯t know where it fell when he fled.

    He turned over and dismounted, and ran quickly towards the Chinese army's tent.

    Although he was slightly blocked outside the tent, he still went in smoothly and saw Huang Taiji.

    When Erdo saw Huang Taiji, he immediately knelt on the ground and cried loudly.

    "Your Majesty, this slave is not doing well in the battle. He encountered a powerful enemy and was defeated. The two blue flag soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses!"

    The fat on Huang Taiji¡¯s fat face trembled. To be honest, he never thought that Erdo, who was unshaven and had strong male hormone secretion, could still cry.

    Seeing Ordo¡¯s eyes bursting with tears and runny nose, Huang Taiji felt extremely fed up.

    At the same time, Huang Taiji also trembled in his heart at what the crying Erdo said.

    "Stop crying!" Huang Taiji finally couldn't help but scolded Erdo. When Huang Taiji shouted this, the crying Erdo finally stopped his lame performance.

    "Tell me clearly, what is going on? I gave you two blue flag soldiers and horses, they are elites, how come you were defeated!"

    Huang Taiji frowned, sat there and looked at Erdo and asked sharply.

    Seeing Huang Taiji like this, Erdo didn't dare to continue crying.

    "Your Majesty, after I took the order to leave with the two blue flags, I went south" As Erdo told Huang Taiji, he gradually understood everything.

    Finally, when Erdo finished speaking, Huang Taiji stood up in a hurry, walked quickly to Erdo, raised his leg, kicked him hard, and said loudly: "What do you mean?"  Yes, the two blue flag troops and horses I gave you have been completely wiped out!"

    Huang Taiji¡¯s kick was very hard, but Erdo didn¡¯t dare to react on his face. He even had to endure the severe pain.

    He didn¡¯t want to make Huang Taiji even more angry, and he might have to chop off his own head.

    Facing Huang Taiji¡¯s angry questioning, Erdo just lay there shivering, but did not reply.

    ?Obviously, this is already very obvious.

    "Well, the two blue flags have more than 10,000 troops. Even if they face the Ming army of 40,000 to 50,000, they may not lose.

    But in just half a day, the entire army was wiped out.

    Who the hell believes this?

    Does the Ming army have such strength?

    This is simply nonsense.

    If the Ming army had such strength, it would be impossible for the Later Jin Dynasty to develop.

    And the Ming court had already sent this powerful army to Liaodong to fight against their Houjin Eight Banners.

    "Your Majesty, all the troops under my command were not wiped out, half of them survived" Before Erdo could finish speaking, Huang Taiji went up and kicked Erdo again, immediately sending Erdo rolling on the spot.

    "You still keep talking! Isn't it true that we lost half of our troops?"

    Huang Taiji was so angry that he even laughed.

    It¡¯s just that Huang Taiji¡¯s smile made Erdo very frightened when he saw the child.

    Because Huang Taiji's expression was too distorted.

    "No, Your Majesty, you don't know. The troops that defeated me are very strange. Their clothes and fighting methods are something I have never seen before. They are not the way of the Ming army at all. Because of this,  The slave accidentally fell into the trap of the other party."Okay" Erdo quickly told Huang Taiji everything that happened in the battle in detail.

    As for Huang Taiji, he slowly suppressed his anger and began to listen seriously.

    To be honest, even Huang Taiji has never seen the tactics Erdo mentioned.

    Even Huang Taiji himself simulated in his mind what would happen if he led an army to fight against this strange army.

    But after much deliberation, Huang Taiji didn't come up with an answer.

    Yes, after all, it is different from the Ming army's routine. It is impossible to imagine it just based on Ordo's description.

    However, Ordo also provides a lot of useful information.

    First of all, the opponents are all infantry, and they all use firecrackers.

    As for the use of fire blunderbuss, this strange army in Erdo's mouth is basically proficient in it.

    Thinking about it, even an elite force such as the Liaodong Army cannot be so strong.

    As an old rival, Huang Taiji also knew very well what the Liaodong Army's combat strength was.

    The elites of Liaodong are very strong, and they also use firearms in combat.

    However, large-scale use of firearms is impossible.  Huang Taiji was very sure about this.

    Every time the Liaodong Army fights, they only use more than a hundred muskets at most.

    " Moreover, the accuracy of these muskets is not very good, and the damage they can do to the Eight Banners elites is extremely limited.

    Generally speaking, as long as the Eight Banners elites responsible for charging into battle can wear three layers of armor, they can withstand the killings caused by the Ming army's gunfire.

    Unless he was extremely unlucky and was hit by a lead bullet fired from a firearm, it would be no big deal.

    But Erdo said that the enemy army he encountered was not such a situation at all.

    The opponent's entire army uses fire blunderbuss, and the distance they can fire is far greater than the Ming army's fire blunderbuss.

    At the same time, the opponent used a weird battle formation to maximize the power of firearms.

    Therefore, even if the cavalry is as elite as the two blue flags, it is useless to launch frontal and flank charges against it. Instead, it is completely defeated by the opponent.

    ?According to Erdo, at that time, the opponent's lead was overwhelming like rain, and you couldn't avoid it at all.

    If this was really the case, then no individual would be able to drive more.

    Therefore, it is not surprising that Ordo suffered such a disastrous defeat.

    And what Ordo described is far more than that.

    ¡°I heard from him that this weird army has many artillery pieces that can move with the army.  The opponent used artillery in the battle formation, and the artillery exploded in a large area, which was much more powerful than the Ming army's red cannon.

    Fire blunderbuss and artillery, two powerful weapons attacking at the same time, how could Ordo withstand it?

    The tactics usually used to deal with the Ming army are completely useless in front of the opponent.

    Hiss!

    Huang Taiji took a breath of air. He couldn't figure out where this army came from.

    No matter what, you always have to have a background.

    You can¡¯t pop out of the ground or fall from the sky.

    But the strange thing is here.

    ?According to Erdo's description, this army absolutely cannot be the army of the Ming Dynasty.

    No matter judging from the formation, flags, clothing and weapons, it is impossible to be the army of the Ming Dynasty.

    Moreover, Huang Taiji also considered this.

    Just like the thought that flashed through his mind just now, if this powerful army was the army of the Ming Dynasty, then they would not have been able to hide it for such a long time.

    He had already been sent to Liaodong to fight against Hou Jin.

    You must know that since the establishment of the Later Jin Kingdom, it has been a serious thorn in the side of the Ming Dynasty.

    For the Ming court, as long as they can eliminate the Later Jin Kingdom, they will not let go of the opportunity.

    Because of the existence of the Later Jin Kingdom, it was a slap in the face of Ming Dynasty, and it also told the surrounding countries and tribes on the grassland that Ming Dynasty seemed to be in ruins.

    Therefore, in order to show his power, for his own face, and especially to eliminate hidden dangers and ensure the stability and safety of the Ming Dynasty, Hou Jin must be eliminated.

    It is a pity that Ming Dynasty and Hou Jin have been fighting for so many years and have never eliminated each other.

      Otherwise, Hou Jin would not have been allowed to establish his country.

    Therefore, this army cannot be from the Ming Dynasty.

    But according to Erdo¡¯s description, it doesn¡¯t look like the legendary southern elite wolf soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

    Because according to the intelligence of the spies sent by Hou Jin into the Ming Dynasty, the Ming court generally would not use wolf soldiers unless it was absolutely necessary.

    The reason is simple. Although the wolf soldiers are brave, their military discipline is also very poor.

    Although they can destroy the enemy, they also cause damage wherever their army passes.

    So, the Ming Dynasty has not used wolf soldiers for a long time.

    At the same time, because the wolf soldiers are from the south, they cannot be accustomed to fighting in the north.

    Therefore, it is unlikely that he will be transferred to the north.

    Being acclimatized is the most important thing.

    You must know that in this era, there are not so many effective drugs.

    Once symptoms of acclimatization appear, an army will be destroyed in a short period of time.

    This is definitely not alarmist, nor is it a joke.

    So, where did such a powerful army, with its entire army using firearms and artillery, come from?

    Huang Taiji's mind started spinning rapidly.

    Looking at the surrounding countries, it seems that none are so strong.

    Needless to say, the Koreans are very talkative, but in fact, they are a piece of shit when it comes to fighting.

    Although they followed Ming¡¯s arrangements and fought several games with Hou Jin, they all ended in failure.

    Therefore, now the Korean people do not dare to tease Hou Jin at all.

    Regarding some of the arrangements made by the Ming Dynasty, the Korean people now secretly violate them and do not contribute at all.

    Damn it, did it really come out of nowhere?

    Huang Taiji was very annoyed, and such an idea flashed through his heart (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
