At that time, the Sichuan Army of the Ming Dynasty and the Qijia Army of Zhejiang Province, which rushed to the rescue, had just arrived at the south bank of the Hunhe River, and the situation was critical. At the military meeting, two company commanders, Chen Ce and Tong Zhongpai, finally made an initiative to attack, replacing defense with attack and fighting for help in a bloody battle. The team of less than 10,000 people was divided into two parts and launched a suicide attack on the powerful late Jin army. Qi Jiajun, commander-in-chief and nephew of Qi Jiguang, commanded firearms and quickly spread out the famous traffic jam on the south bank of Hunhe River. Young Sichuan generals Zhou Dunji and Qin Minping led more than 3,000 Sichuan troops to cross the river from Hunhe pontoon bridge, lined up and rushed to the Eight Banners Army on the north bank. Qi Jin knew that these Sichuan troops who never looked back were buying time for themselves with their lives. As long as they can hold out until the arrival of the backup Ming army or until the evening, there is still a chance.
Determined to win, the Sichuan Army defeated Zheng Baiqi and Huang Zheng Banner successively, and more than 2,000 soldiers were killed in the latter Jin Dynasty. Later, Li Yongfang, commander of Fushun, fired from Chengtou, Shenyang, completely covering the whole position of Sichuan Army. The late Jin army swarmed in and finally washed away this brave Sichuan army. Most of Zhou Dunji and Qin Minping died in battle, and only a few people crossed the pontoon bridge and returned to the camp on the south bank of Hunhe River of Qijiajun.
The moment of decisive battle has finally arrived. Later, the Jin army crossed the Hunhe River, surrounded on all sides, and soon attacked from the left with the power of the four flags. Qi Jiajun, who hastily arranged the battle, used the traffic array and well-trained triads to meet the enemy, but there were still fierce post-Jin Jun cavalry who broke through the barrage and directly hit the front of the traffic array. At this time, the Ming army immediately rushed out of the soldiers holding the iron wolf, a special weapon of the Qigujun, and stabbed them to death. After two rounds of attacks, more than 3,000 people were killed or injured when Jin soldiers fell off their horses. Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a bad news came-Huang Taiji near Baitabao actually repelled 30,000 Ming reinforcements with thousands of people. Qi Jiajun's foreign aid was cut off and there was no way out. Nurhachi even gave a death order, allowing the Eight Banners to attack in turn regardless of casualties. One side desperately attacked and the other desperately defended. The Ming army finally ran out of ammunition and the traffic jam was finally broken.
After the late Jin army broke into the traffic, Qi Jiajun immediately formed a world-famous mandarin duck array with whistle as the unit, and launched a fierce hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. In each formation, Wolf Warriors, Rattan and Knife cooperated with each other to fight against the enemy, especially using the Qijia Dao, which was improved from the fierce Japanese Dao, which caused a lot of casualties to the late 8 Jin Army, but it was finally outnumbered, which was caused by two days of urgent marching and fierce fighting. Company commander Chen Ce killed more than ten people and died of exhaustion. General Tong Zhong wants to leave the battlefield. Qi Jin grabbed his horse and shouted, "Today is the day for a gentleman to serve his country!" Tong Zhong School immediately turned to the battlefield with Qi Jin. At night, only dozens of Qi Jiabing surrounded Qi Jin and Tong Zhong School, and their mandarin duck array was still not chaotic, just like rocks in stormy waves. In the twilight, the post-nomads were attacked on all sides, but they lost the courage of close combat. In the end, ten thousand arrows were fired at once ...
In this war, the Ming army sacrificed nearly 10 thousand people, and the Eight Banners in the late Jin Dynasty also paid the price of tens of thousands of casualties. According to historical records, in this battle, Qi Jiajun killed tens of thousands of elite people with two white flags and two yellow flags in Manchu Dynasty with thousands of musketeers, struggled for several days under the bombardment of artillery teams, and finally ran out of ammunition and food, and was completely annihilated. Both the records of the Ming Dynasty and the history of the Ming Dynasty compiled by the Qing Dynasty praised the bravery of the Sichuan and Zhejiang armies in the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, calling the battle "vigorous" and "the first bloody battle since Liao left the army".
Only a few Qi Jiajun who broke through early and stayed in Liaoyang survived. The Ming court sent personnel to comfort the labor army and promised them a large reward. These soldiers refused with tears and asked for no reward. They just wanted to fight again and vowed to avenge the fallen soldiers such as Qi Jin. Imperial officials and people all sincerely admire that these ordinary soldiers have the demeanor of a national soldier!
Ten days later, in the battle of Liaoyang, all these soldiers were killed.
Soon, the county magistrates of Yiwu and Ningbo, the main recruiting places of Zhejiang soldiers, wrote that the country had been at war for years, and because Zhejiang soldiers were good at fighting, they kept recruiting and killing, and the number of men here increased from ten to seven or eight. The Ming dynasty finally showed mercy and stopped recruiting troops from these areas. Since then, Zhejiang soldiers, Qi Jiajun, and their related Yuanyang array, Wolf Zen, etc., have all disappeared in the long river of history. ...
In the thirty-eighth year of Jiajing, in the battle of Liaoyang, Qi Jiajun was beheaded nearly 200,000 square meters. Destroy the enemy, smash Mongolian fighters, go to the DPRK to resist the enemy, and cross East Asia. After a hundred battles, the only defeat, there will be no troops in the world!
