"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 890
The main force of 300,000 troops under the command of Yang Hao covered the sky and covered the ground, with battalions stretching for tens of miles, and the torches lit at night illuminated the wilderness like day.
Jingyang Mansion experienced a brutal fight, the streets were covered with blood and corpses, and the buildings were dilapidated.
Wang Cheng, the acting head of the provisional 16th Banner Regiment, got out of the ruins and joined the army of the deputy head Lei Ming.
"Master Lei Deputy Army Chief, if you come one step later, we will all have to be reimbursed."
Temporarily organized more than 20,000 people from the 16th Banner Regiment, fighting with 100,000 rebels also suffered heavy losses.
At this moment, including the wounded who could not move, there were only less than 1,500 of them left who could catch their breath.
In fact, there were more than 10,000 of them when the city was broken, but most of them were beheaded by red-eyed rebels when they surrendered.
Although Wang Cheng and the others were in a desperate situation, they fought the rebels in the street and finally saved their lives.
"Commander Wang Qi, I will definitely ask for credit for you from the commander-in-chief in this battle¡ª"
Seeing these bruised and haggard brothers, the deputy head of the army, Lei Ming, also respected them.
Lei Ming, the Southern Army's soldiers who were temporarily organized into the 16th Banner Regiment, originally looked down upon them from the bottom of their hearts.
?Because they are like weeds on the wall, whoever is powerful, they will belong to whoever they are, and their combat effectiveness is terrible.
However, the Battle of Jingyang Mansion really made Lei Ming look at the provisional 16th Banner Regiment with admiration.
Because they relied on the strength of a banner group, they forcibly withstood the attack of 100,000 rebels.
Although the 100,000 rebels are also a mob, the fighting spirit of the temporarily organized Sixteenth Banner Regiment is worthy of recognition.
The 13th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Cavalry and the provisional 16th Banner Regiment successfully joined in Jingyang Mansion, but the situation they faced was still grim.
The 300,000 troops led by the right marshal Yang Hao of the rebel army are close at hand. If their follow-up main force is not there, Jingyang Mansion will still be unable to defend.
Fortunately, at this moment, Yuan Jie, the head of the Third Field Army, also knew that the situation on the front line was critical, so he also ordered the army to rush day and night, and rushed to Jingyang Mansion without stopping.
The next morning, when the rebels had breakfast and were about to assemble their troops to take Jingyang Mansion in one fell swoop, the 12th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Infantry rushed to the battlefield first.
The Twelfth Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Infantry arrived only one night later than the cavalry.
Compared with the cavalry unit that could still go into battle after arriving at the battlefield, the 12th Banner Regiment of the Infantry rushed all the way, and many soldiers fell behind, so they also entered the city of Jingyang Mansion immediately.
"Hmph, since you are here to die, let's clean up together!"
Seeing an infantry flag regiment of the Qinghe Army arrive at Jingyang Mansion, Yang Hao, the right marshal of the rebel army, didn't care at all.
He now has 300,000 troops in hand, and the other party only sent 20,000 reinforcements, which is not enough for him to fill his teeth.
However, Yang Hao ignored the combat effectiveness of the 12th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Infantry. This banner regiment was an elite group fought from blood and fire battles, and it was not comparable to the mob of the rebel army.
The rebels launched a fierce attack on Jingyang Mansion, but with the reinforcements from the 12th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Infantry, the defense of Jingyang Mansion was greatly strengthened.
In addition, the 13th Banner Regiment of the Cavalry was supporting the outside, rushing up to harass the rebels from time to time, so as to relieve the pressure in Jingyangfu City.
The battle lasted for a day, and the rebels did not take advantage of the slightest except for leaving corpses all over the city of Jingyang Mansion.
In the evening, the 15th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Infantry, the 17th Banner Regiment and the anti-smuggling corps led by Yuan Jie, head of the Qinghe Army's Third Field Army, arrived at the battlefield.
The two armies led by Yuan Jie did not enter the city, but camped outside the city, forming a confrontation with the rebels.
Seeing that the main forces of the Qinghe Army arrived at Jingyang Mansion one after another, Yang Hao, the right marshal of the rebel army, also adjusted his deployment in time, and decided to eat the main force of the Qinghe Army here.
As long as they eat up the Qinghe Army troops in front of them, if they go further east, they will be unimpeded and can directly invade the Jiangnan Province.
You must know that there is a lot of money and food in the Jiangnan province, which is what his current army needs most urgently.
The right marshal of the rebel army, Yang Hao, called all the senior generals of the second, third and fourth columns for a pre-battle meeting that night.
The purpose of this pre-war meeting is very simple,??That is, they want to concentrate their strength and eat up the Qinghe army in front of them.
According to the arrangement of Yang Hao, the right marshal, they will concentrate their efforts to eat the Qinghe Army camp outside Jingyangfu City first, and then attack the Qinghe Army inside the city.
Under the instigation of Yang Hao, the generals at all levels of the rebel army also returned to the various units to mobilize before the war after the meeting was adjourned.
In the early morning of the next day, the rebel army had enough food early in the morning, and then the troops along the way began to gather.
The 300,000 troops assembled dozens of dark army formations in the wilderness, with swords and guns like a forest, and flags like a sea. The entire area seemed to be full of rebels.
On the contrary, the scale of the Qinghe army is much smaller, and the Qinghe army who rested overnight is also full of energy. Under the command of the army commander Yuan Jie, the Qinghe army arrayed up to fight without showing any weakness.
The 12th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Infantry left 10,000 people guarding the outside of Jingyang Mansion, and the main force also moved outside the city to participate in the frontal battle.
This is the first time that the Qinghe Army's Third Field Army has fought a powerful enemy head-on on a large scale. All units have also received orders, that is, for the honor of their Third Army, only victory is not allowed.
The troops of the Qinghe Army had fought many battles with the Southern Army, and they already had the experience of fighting with large regiments, so the formations of each army were densely packed, standing there like a thick mountain, unmoving.
Yuan Jie, the head of the army, adopted a defensive and counterattack strategy, that is, to resist the opponent's attack first, and then use the cavalry as the vanguard, and then launch a counterattack against the rebels.
Arranged at the forefront are two infantry banner battalions under the 12th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army and four banner battalions under the 15th Banner Regiment.
Temporarily organize the troops of the 17th Banner Regiment and the Anti-smuggling Corps, and the second-line troops, the 13th Banner Regiment of the Cavalry, as a mobile force, rush to cover at any time.
?The provisional 16th Banner Regiment has been crippled in the battle, so their task is to stay in the camp and guard the rear.
Two armies formed a formation outside the city of Jingyang Mansion, under the black clouds, the murderous aura was soaring.
The rebels first launched an attack on the Qinghe army impatiently. The 50,000 rebels arranged in five phalanxes on the front line slowly pressed down on the Qinghe army amidst the sound of drums shaking the sky.
However, the Qinghe army was short of troops, so it mainly defended and counterattacked, so their army formations were densely arranged together, ready to withstand the attack of the rebels.
Numerous crossbowmen and archers were sent to the front line, and they will be responsible for attacking the attacking rebel troops in waves, so as to weaken the attack power of the rebels and relieve the pressure on the frontline troops.
