"Report!" A scout came to Jirgalang: "Our right wing has defeated the second line of defense of the Ming army's left wing."
Before Jirgalang could burst out laughing, another scout came up to him and said, "Report, our central army has defeated the first line of defense of the Ming army."
Then the third scout said: "Our army's left wing has defeated the first line of defense of the Ming army's right wing, and is attacking the second line of defense!"
Jirgalang looked into the distance, found no scouts on the way and laughed, "Hahaha, victory on all three fronts! My round-robin battle has paid off after just a small trial. Great, great!"
"Order all units to continue to push the front forward and force the Ming army to retreat!"
"Your Highness," Lekedehun reminded, "The Ming army is indeed exhausted, but only in the first line of defense! The soldiers and horses in the other lines of defense have not experienced fierce fighting, and their strength should not be underestimated. Don't take it lightly!"
Jirgalang frowned slightly.
Although Lekedehun's words were not pleasant, they did make some sense.
If the Ming army could have been easily defeated, Hauge would not have been defeated in Ningyuan.
He turned to the messenger and said, "Pass the order. When attacking, be sure to maintain the formation! Keep a distance between the battle lines to prevent a chain reaction in the rear when the front is defeated. Also, reorganize the Eight Banners soldiers who retreated from Songshan and have them set up defenses in the Nanshan camp to prepare to meet the friendly forces."
At this time, the Eight Banners soldiers were fighting with the Ming army who had just eaten rock sugar.
As soon as they started fighting, they immediately noticed something unusual.
Not only did these Ming troops show no signs of fatigue, they were even more courageous than when they first fought in the morning.
Man Dahai, who was commanding the battle at the front, put down his clairvoyance, shook his head and said, "Something is wrong, it's totally wrong!"
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" the guard stepped forward and asked.
Man Dahai said nothing and handed the Clairvoyance to the soldier.
The personal soldier took the clairvoyance and looked in the direction that Man Dahai pointed.
In field of vision.
Dozens of Sauron soldiers were fighting with the Ming army.
Although there are slight differences in the equipment of both sides, they are basically the same.
The Ming army had relatively more men, while the Sauron soldiers were larger in size.
Both sides have their advantages.
Before, these Sauron soldiers relied on their strength and endurance to gain the upper hand in the battle and defeated the Ming army.
However, something unexpected happened today.
Faced with the almost invulnerable Sauron heavy armored soldiers, the Ming army adopted a close combat tactic.
They formed groups of two or three and risked their lives to attack the heavily armored soldiers.
This moment.
The Ming army seemed to be possessed by the god of war.
Some pulled legs, some grabbed heads, and some snatched weapons.
The Sauron soldier wielded the blunt weapon in his hand and smashed a Ming soldier to death.
Before he could reap the joy, he was grabbed by the thigh by another Ming soldier and thrown to the ground.
Various weapons and even the flesh and blood of Ming soldiers hit him one after another.
While killing another Ming soldier, he was also hit in the head by a blunt object.
The huge impact force was transmitted from the helmet to the skull, and hot blood flowed out from the gaps in the helmet.
Due to excessive blood loss, the Sauron soldier was never able to stand up again.
The same scene kept happening at the front line.
In anger, the Sauron soldiers began to rampage like wild beasts.
Wherever they went, the Ming army fell.
But the Ming army’s deaths were not in vain.
They used their lives to inflict heavy damage on the Sauron soldiers.
On the battlefield.
Scary screams and angry roars rang out one after another.
Broken armor and severed limbs were piled together, and the bloody smell filled the air, as if it was about to condense into substance.
Looking at the corpses of their comrades on the ground, there was only fatigue on the faces of the Ming army soldiers, no fear!
Man Dahai took the Clairvoyance back from his personal guard, shook his head and sighed, "This Ming army seems to have endless strength, and the fighting power it bursts out is also ridiculous! The Sauron soldiers can only fight them to a draw and cannot gain the upper hand."
Man Dahai's original intention was to use the Sauron soldiers to create a gap, and the rest of the army would expand their advantage through the gap and then defeat the Ming army.
With luck.
He was even able to expand his advantage to all fronts and defeat the main force of the Ming army.
Just like the Battle of Songjin in the 14th year of Chongzhen, the main force of the Ming army was wiped out in one fell swoop!
Completely reversed the war situation in Liaodong.
But he forgot.
Not only was this a fully paid Ming army, but it was also a Ming army that had just eaten rock sugar.
They have the fighting power, the desire to fight, and high morale!
It is possible to kill them, but it is extremely difficult to defeat them!
On the field.
Countless Ming troops were arranged in neat formations and advanced forward step by step under the command of their generals.
When the soldiers in front died, the ones behind immediately took their places.
Although everyone knew that they would die if they went up, they still rushed forward.
If you move a little slower, your position will be taken away by others.
"Kill!" The Ming army would shout the word "kill" in unison every time they took a step forward.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
After taking more than ten steps in succession, the Sauron soldiers were the first to be unable to hold on.
As soon as they killed one Ming soldier, two would rush up.
After killing two, two more came.
When they could no longer kill them, the Ming army that attacked them began to fight back.
Under their watch, countless of their companions were killed by the Ming army using various methods.
At this time, they were not only exhausted, but also injured.
The wounds of those with minor injuries were bleeding, and those with serious injuries were already beginning to stagger.
Looking at the Ming army's orderly steps, these Sauron soldiers collapsed directly.
They turned to look at the general in charge, then turned and ran.
The Sauron soldiers are the meat shields of the Eight Banners soldiers!
Seeing the Sauron soldiers fleeing, the Eight Banners soldiers followed without any hesitation.
The shield is gone, what’s the point of fighting!
The defeat was like a landslide!
The Eight Banners soldiers who were attacking the moment before began to retreat in the blink of an eye.
The sudden change not only surprised Wu Sangui, but even Wang Yongji was a little surprised, "The Jiannu were defeated so soon?"
"Maybe there's a trick!" Gao Yigong said cautiously beside him.
"It's possible," Wang Yongji nodded and ordered, "Sound the horn to withdraw the troops, and don't pursue them!"
Ding ding ding!
The sound of gongs echoed across the fields.
Although the Ming army was unwilling to give in, they had no choice but to stop the pursuit and return to garrison outside Songshan City.
The battle between the two sides around Songshan Castle finally came to an end.
While counting the casualties, Wang Yongji began planning how to capture Jinzhou.
Several miles away, on the top of Nanshan Mountain, Jirgalang was also making plans.
He was thinking about how to stop the advance of the Ming army, or...how to annihilate the main force of the Ming army.
