    Seeing the North Korean cannon fodder rushing into the Qing army's main line, causing chaos, Gonzalez and Huang Ding both laughed happily.  After laughing for a while, Huang Ding asked in a consultative tone: "Is it time for the cavalry to move in?" Gonzalez nodded and decisively adopted a risky tactic: "To defeat the drowned dog, not only the cavalry, but also the cavalry in front.  The boys all started to run and fight together." Faced with the fleeting opportunity, Gonzalez adopted a decisive battle attitude.  Due to the capture and requisition in Korea, the Marine Corps now has more than 500 cavalry.  But after all, the cavalry had to form a team first, so the artillery was dispatched first.  The artillerymen led the horses to tie up the loaded artillery pieces, then led the horses around half a circle, and then drove the horses towards the front of the formation.  They ran to the front of the formation through the passage between the square formations, then led the horse around half a circle, pointed the muzzle of the gun forward, then used the prod to compact the ammunition in the barrel, lit the match, and headed towards the Qing army.  The melee with North Korean cannon fodder was blasted past.  This round of shelling completely caused the North Korean cannon fodder to lose the courage to continue fighting.  With a "boom", all the North Korean cannon fodder ran around on the battlefield like headless flies.  As soon as the sound of the cannon fell, five hundred cavalrymen of the Daping Army lined up and charged from the right side of the phalanx. This charge made the entire battlefield even more chaotic. Even the phalanx that was steadily moving forward began to stop and assassinate  The Korean cannon fodder that was close to the phalanx was raised to prevent them from rushing into the formation, but instead confused the formation of the Marine Corps.  Seeing that Dapingjun was approaching, Duduo also narrowed his eyes and fell silent.  After a while, he sighed: "Hey! Retreat! Retreat ten miles. Let the cavalry cover behind you, and don't mess up!" With their current chaotic formation, the Qing army simply cannot resist it.  The Marine Corps came in formation.  I know it's a disadvantage.  To resist is not brave, but foolish.  So while the North Korean cannon fodder was still on the battlefield, Duduo took the initiative to withdraw one after another.  It¡¯s true that success is cannon fodder and failure is cannon fodder.  The more than 10,000 headless cannon fodder of North Korea also blocked the advance of the Marine Corps.  When the Daping army finally dispersed them.  The Qing army had already withdrawn from the battlefield and retreated towards the rear.  Seeing the Qing army's cavalry waiting in formation behind them, they also felt that the phalanx's pursuit speed could no longer keep up with the Qing army.  Gonzalez and Huang Ding no longer pursued reluctantly, and promptly called for gold to withdraw their troops, ending the day's fighting.  In this day¡¯s battle, it can be said that the Qing army suffered a very depressing defeat.  They didn't even have time to start a head-on battle with the Daping Army.  But he was defeated in the "battle" with North Korean cannon fodder.  Especially those Korean cannon fodder were captured and driven away by the Qing army. This really feels like shooting oneself in the foot!  So inexplicably, the Qing army lost more than a thousand soldiers and horses.  But the Marine Corps only spent dozens of shells, and it can be said that there was no damage.  Especially this time, the six general cannons brought by the Qing army to attack Seoul were all abandoned by the Qing army on the way back.  This caused the Qing army's long-range firepower to suffer a great loss.  Moreover, once the Marine Corps fails to fight and retreats to Seoul to defend, the Qing army will have no means of attacking the city, which also puts the Daping Army in an invincible position.  For this reason, after three days of rest, Duduo was eager to lead the army and advance forward again.  He wanted to completely defeat the Daping Army in the field and not give the Daping Army a chance to retreat.  But at this moment, the third batch of 6,000 Marines of the Marine Corps also landed in North Korea.  This force marched quickly to Anzhou and joined the main force led by Gonzalez and Huang Ding.  So in this way, the Qing army also became disadvantaged in terms of military strength.  For this reason, Duduo kept his troops stationed on the spot to prevent the Daping Army from moving north; at the same time, he urgently reported to Jierhalang and asked him to send reinforcements to reinforce his troops as soon as possible.  So the two armies were in a stalemate in Anzhou. ???¡­???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Duduo in North Korea was depressed, but Abate, who entered the customs, was even more depressed.  On May 27, Abatai received an urgent order from Dorgon.  He led 50,000 Manchu and Mongolian troops and entered the Pass from Yu County (now Zhangjiakou), heading directly towards Beijing.  Since the main force of the Daping Army was fighting everywhere, it was impossible to arrange enough troops on the Great Wall defense line, so the Abatai tribe did not encounter any resistance when entering the pass.  However, the beacon fire on the Great Wall also spread to all directions.  As soon as the smoke rose, the entire Xuanda front line was organized and mobilized, and they began to completely fortify the walls and clear the country to prevent the Qing army from getting food on the spot.  Since the Great Wall defense line has become undefended, the Daping Dynasty began to organize exercises to strengthen the wall and clear the field at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.  Now, as soon as Beizhili and Shanxi saw the beacon fire, officials immediately gathered the people scattered in the countryside into various cities and military villages.  Except for the people living in the mountains, if anyone is scattered outside the city, they will be shot without mercy.  And the food and grass outside the cityAll the crops were brought into the city, and even the crops that were about to be harvested in summer were harvested as much as possible, and all the crops that were too late to be harvested were burned, just to prevent the Qing army from getting a grain of grain.  "As soon as Abatai led 50,000 Qing troops into the pass, they felt that they could not move forward.  Because Pegasus Town had just swept through the Monan grassland a few months ago, the Mongolian tribes suffered heavy losses.  The number of cattle and sheep seized by Pegasus Zhenguang exceeded 100,000, and the number of cattle and sheep killed because they could not be carried was no less than this number.  Therefore, when Abatai entered the customs this time, they did not bring much food supplies.  Of course, when nomads entered the Central Plains, they never had the habit of bringing more food and grass.  They always collect food on the spot, plundering all the food, grass, wealth and silk along the way.  But this time the actions of the Daping Dynasty were beyond the Qing army's expectations.  Because last year, the entire northern region suffered from repeated military disasters. The Ming army, Dashun army, Qing army and Runing army all killed each other, causing the northern region to have no food harvest and the land was barren for a whole year.  In order to resettle these victims, the officials of the Daping Dynasty strictly implemented the "Three Decree" before and after the establishment of the Daping Dynasty.  The disaster victims and refugees were gathered in various military villages and villages for collective production.  In addition, grains were transported to various cities and villages as rations and grain for the people.  In order to prevent bandits from invading, all military villages and villages also formed village protection teams.  Although these village guards were not equipped with any firearms, their training was based on the square formations of the Runing Army.  Therefore, when the Abatai tribe entered the customs this time, they actually could not find food and grass in the countryside.  If you want to obtain it, you must attack a well-defended city or farm village.  On the third day of June, the first army of Xuanhua camped in Zhuangzi.  Guan Qiguo looked at the more than 10,000 Qing soldiers outside Zhuangzi. They were so densely packed that he actually couldn't count them at all.  At this time, he was a little timid in his heart, but as the highest official in Zhuangzi, judging from his expression, he was still relatively calm.  "Can Zhuangzi hold on?" Guan Qiguo asked Shi Zhen beside him.  Shi Zhen is a veteran of the former Runing Army. He retired with an injured left hand, so now he has become an official in charge of military training and public security in the township.  Shi Zhen carefully probed her head, looked at the Qing soldiers outside, and then whispered to Guan Qiguo: "Open in half! We have no firearms, and only dozens of hunting bows and arrows, which can only be used at the top of the city.  It's a battle to the death. But Zhuangzi's wall is too short, and it doesn't take much effort for the Tatars to build the ladder. If the children use all their usual skills, they can still withstand the Tatars. But they have never been in battle.  I'm afraid that they will be in trouble when the time comes. " The military camp where Guan Qi is located is the largest in the vicinity, so as the head of the township, he personally takes charge of the defense of this village.  However, this village also supplies the entire township's food rations, so there are more than 2,000 kilograms of food and grass in the village.  It was these more than two thousand stones of grain that attracted the Qing army who was short of food.  But there are also many village protection teams in this village.  After gathering people from several nearby villages, there are now more than 2,000 people in the village's protection team.  Moreover, Zhuangzi is not a city after all, and its scope is much smaller, so two thousand troops are more than enough to guard such a small Zhuangzi.  But the only disadvantage is that there are no long-range weapons and the city walls are too low.  This time the Qing army entered the Pass, pursuing high-speed mobility, so there were many horses, and many soldiers rode two or three horses.  But they didn't bring any siege weapons, not even many craftsmen, so it was basically impossible to attack the tall fortified city.  But now that they saw Zhuangzi, a military garrison with only low walls, they would attack it at all costs.  And now the Qing army is on the verge of food shortage.  Although it is summer, there are many birds and beasts in the countryside, and hunting can be used to temporarily sustain the situation.  But 50,000 soldiers and horses can't stay in one place for long even if they eat horse chews.  And the Qing army entered the pass just for hunting?  No matter how you look at it, this seems a bit funny.  Therefore, the current Qing army is bound to win over Zhuangzi, who governs Qi State.  After hearing Shi Zhen¡¯s words, Guan Qiguo smiled bitterly. It seemed that this difficulty was very difficult!  So he then ordered: "Try your best! If you can hold it, I will give you credit. If you can't hold it, let's go to the Martyrs' Shrine together." Shi Zhen nodded and stretched out his injured left hand.  , then said to Guan Qiguo: "Sir! I have arranged for dozens of cronies to enter the granary. The door of the granary is now locked. As long as Zhuangzi is broken, they will set fire to it immediately and will never let the Tatars get a grain of grain.  " When Guan Qiguo heard that Shi Zhen was so desperate, he smiled again and said to him: "That's good. Let's be prepared. Tell all the villagers about this! If Zhuangzi is broken and there is no food,  Even if they wantIf they surrender, they and their whole family will be killed by the Tatars.  "
