Eleven years later, he was reinstated.
North of Jize Village.
Tens of thousands of Guanning Iron Cavalry were stationed in the huge military camp.
In the commander's tent, a group of generals stood in the tent, staring blankly at the words on the light projection screen.
Looking back at Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian, who had been high and mighty just a moment ago but were now terrified, some of the generals had disdain in their eyes, while others had killing intent.
Yang Tinglin, whose forehead was still bleeding, drew his sword and approached Gao Qiqian step by step.
"Lottery slave!
You tried to kill Lord Lu and the Sky High Army because of your selfish thoughts. However, I didn't expect the heavens to have eyes and the immortals to pity me. My Ming Dynasty shouldn't have died. I'll chop off your head now!"
Gao Qiqian was the supervisor of the Guanning Cavalry and had a few acquaintances. Seeing that his life was at stake, he hurriedly shouted," General Zu, save me!”
Zu Dale turned his face away.
"Governor Zhang, save me!"
Zhang Qiping also turned his face away.
Seeing that no one was going to save him, Gao Qiqian was furious. He stomped his feet, and the fat on his face trembled.
"Yang Tinglin, I have no enmity with Lord Lu. The reason why I'm making things difficult for Lord Lu is that I've figured out the emperor's intention to sue for peace. I'm the emperor's servant. You're just a sixth-rank chief of the Ministry of War. If you dare to kill me, will the emperor spare you in the future?”
Yang Tinglin hesitated for a moment before saying resolutely," The world can live without me, Yang Tinglin, but it cannot live without Lord Lu. As long as I can save Lord Lu, I don't mind dying!”
With a swing of his sword, Gao Qiqian's fat head immediately rolled to the ground.
Yang Sichang was trembling in fear. He thought that Yang Tinglin would slash at him next.
However, Yang Tinglin only held the sword that was dripping with blood and stared straight at him. He said coldly," Minister, saving people is like putting out a fire. Now that Lord Lu had been surrounded, the Qing Krupp must have seen these projections. They would not let go of the opportunity to kill Lord Lu. There is no time to lose. We must immediately go to the rescue.”
Yang Sichang's face was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't even dare to wipe it off. "I've decided to lead fifty thousand Tiening Cavalry to the Jia village to save them and redeem myself. If any of the generals dared to retreat, Yang Tinglin, the chief of the Ministry of War, would kill them on behalf of the emperor.”
History took a turn here.
On the fifth night of Lu Xiangsheng's siege, tens of thousands of Guanning Iron Cavalry rushed to the Haoshui Bridge in Jia Village under the bright moonlight.
At the same time, Dorgon, who saw the light projection, also made a prompt decision and swore to kill Lu Xiangsheng.
He ordered the most elite White Armor Army to charge at the Tianxiong Army's precarious position in waves. Regardless of casualties, they had to take down the most outstanding military commander of the Late Ming Dynasty.
"Pass on my order. Whoever kills Lu Xiangsheng will be rewarded with ten thousand gold.”
The White Armor Army, whose eyes had turned red from the reward, charged forward in waves, but they were repeatedly repelled by the Sky High Army, whose morale had been boosted.
Lu Xiangsheng was already covered in blood, but he still stood at the front of the formation and did not retreat.
Facing the crazy cavalry of the Eight Banners Army, Lu Xiangsheng shouted while slashing,""The soldiers of the Sky High Army, the great ancestors, the great ancestors, and the current Emperor already know of our situation. The Guanning Iron Cavalry will be here soon to rescue us. If we can hold on for another night, we will be able to attack from both inside and outside and destroy these Qing Krupps.”
At the same time, Dorgon sent Azik with 5,000 cavalry to set up an ambush 10 miles away from Jia Zhuang, preparing to surprise the Guanning Cavalry.
The two sides met at dawn.
The Guanning Army only panicked for less than ten minutes before they calmed down.
After all, the Guanning Army was an elite force that had been through hundreds of battles. In terms of combat power, they were only slightly inferior to the Eight Banners Army.
The reason why they didn't dare to fight the Eight Banners Army in the past was because the Guanning Cavalry had already started to show signs of becoming warlords. None of the commanders wanted to lose too many troops.
However, this time, when they saw the light projection that suddenly appeared in the sky, everyone saw it as a miracle.
Heaven never forsakes the bright sun.
Perhaps after a while, Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Chengzu would also lead their armies over.
At this time, if he still didn't fight the Qing Krupp with all his might, did he want to be skinned alive by Emperor Taizu?!
Azik was surprised to see that the Guanning Army, which was usually the most afraid of fighting the Eight Banners Army, had completely changed.
Zu Dale, who had always been the best at preserving his strength, held a large saber in his hand and roared like a madman. He led hundreds of soldiers to charge at the front.
Wu Sangui, who had a knife scar on his face, also led hundreds of barbarian cavalry to attack the Eight Banners Army repeatedly, causing the formation of the Eight Banners Army to become chaotic.
Of course, the most powerful one was Cao Bianjiao, the number one general of Guanning Army.
He held a spear in his left hand and an iron whip in his right. He took the lead and cut through Azik's formation like a chisel.
In less than two hours, Azik's 5,000 Eight Banners Army was defeated.
After that, the 50,000 Guanning Cavalry charged towards the Haoshui Bridge and started a decisive battle with Dorgon's main force.
Dorgon had thought that the Guanning Cavalry would still be defeated, but the two sides had fought from morning to noon, and from noon to afternoon. They had fought more than ten times, and although the Guanning Cavalry were at a slight disadvantage, they still had no intention of retreating.
Although the Guanning Army had lost 8,000 cavalry, the Eight Banners Army had also lost 5,000 cavalry.
Especially Cao Bianjiao and the young and vigorous Wu Sangui, they almost traded their lives for their lives, killing more than 2,000 cavalry of the Eight Banners Army at the cost of 3,000 cavalry casualties.
This time, Dorgon didn't dare to continue fighting.
What was the fatal weakness of the Eight Banners Army? However, the number of people was limited. The true Manchurian Eight Banners Army only had sixty thousand cavalry.
If the Ming Dynasty's army had been a little more capable, they would have wiped out the Eight Banners Army long ago by killing hundreds of them in every battle.
However, the Eight Banners Army in the late Ming Dynasty seemed to be blessed by the gods. Every time they fought with the Ming army, they would often kill tens of thousands of Ming soldiers while they only lost dozens of people.
Even after the Manchu Qing entered the pass, they had already occupied the entire world. The Jin King Li Dingguo had won a great victory in Hengyang, killing 7,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners Army in one go, scaring the Shunzhi Emperor so much that he wanted to retreat from Beijing to the northeast.
It wasn't that the Shunzhi Emperor was afraid, but that the Manchurian population was too small, and they couldn't afford to consume it.
Dorgon led his army to retreat. The Guanning Army finally rushed into the Haoshui Bridge and rescued Lu Xiangsheng, who was injured all over.
At this time, the 3,000 Tianxiong Army only had less than 800 people left, and everyone was injured.
If the Guanning Army had arrived one step later, Lu Xiangsheng would have died for his country.
