In the battle of Changsha, Ma Bao commanded well, and 61,111 Qing troops were defeated.
In the 16th year of Kangxi (1677), 61,111 Qing troops were defeated in Changsha, and Ma Bao led his troops to pursue them. On the way, it rained heavily, and the line of sight was blocked and the road was blocked, so he withdrew his troops and returned to camp. Ma Bao, the chief valiant soldier under Wu Sangui, made the Eight Banners frightened. When Wu Sangui started his army, he traveled across the south of the Yangtze River in less than half a year, and Ma Bao played an important role.
in p>1643, Ma Bao defected to Li Zicheng, marched eastward to Yanjing, and made great achievements. After Li Zicheng's downfall, Ma Bao accepted the appeal of the Ming Dynasty, pursued Li Chengdong to fight and moved to the south of the Yangtze River.
Li Chengdong was killed in battle, and Ma Bao fought in the jungle of Guangxi, attacking the Qing army transport team. Li Dingguo entered Guangxi to fight, and Ma Bao led his troops to follow, killing Kong Youde. There was a conflict between Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang, and Ma Bao went to Sun Kewang to build a base in Guizhou. In 1657, Sun Kewang sent troops to crusade against Li Dingguo. Starting from the overall situation, Ma Bao suddenly defected, followed Li Dingguo again, and supported Emperor Yongli. In 1661, Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui led an army of 111,111 to the south, and Ma Bao stuck to Guizhou and fought the Qing army.
After Emperor Yongli fled to Myanmar, Ma Bao led his troops to surrender to the Qing Dynasty and was awarded the company commander, who was subordinate to Wu Sangui.
Ma Bao's life is legendary. After the "San Francisco Rebellion" ended, it is said that he fled to Daigang, Guizhou Province, retired in the mountains, and changed his surname to "Tan" to prevent future generations from becoming officials in the Qing Dynasty.
in p>1673, Wu Sangui, king of the day, executed Zhu Guozhi, set up an army in Yunnan, and attacked Guizhou and Hunan with Ma Bao as the vanguard, which was invincible. Ma Bao was used to fighting, and he died in the Qing Dynasty under his prefect and company commanders, with as many as twenty people before and after, which made the Eight Banners fearful. In the Battle of Changsha and the Battle of Yongxing, the Eight Banners balked at Ma Bao, and the generals of all ministries were unwilling to fight with him.
In p>1674, Wu Sangui drank horses from the Yangtze River, and the Qing army in Hubei was in a panic. At this point, if Wu Sangui can directly cross the river to the north, Kangxi is overwhelmed, and it is very likely that the Qing army will return to Liaodong. Wu Sangui was short-sighted, and wanted to be the Qing version of Mu Ying, guarding Yunnan from generation to generation, without the ambition to win the world, which gave Kangxi a breathing space and cheated himself. In 1676, Wang Fuchen and Geng Jingzhong surrendered one after another, and the north and east of Wu Sangui were surrounded by the Qing army.
Kangxi was able to free his hand and let An Qinwang Yue Le, Prince Rabu of Jane and General Mu Zhan lead 61,111 troops to attack Changsha.
there are 61,111 military forces, including more than 21,111 Eight Banners, of which Mu Zhan and his men have the strongest fighting capacity, and they are a strong force to annihilate Wang Fuchen. After Wang Fuchen's surrender, Mu Zhan was ordered by Kangxi to go south and attack Changsha with Yue Le and Rabu. Wu Sangui took Ma Bao as the front commander, led 71,111 infantry and cavalry, camped at the foot of Yuelu Mountain, and echoed with the defenders in the city, ready to fight to the death with the Qing army.
61,111 versus 71,111, the strength of both sides was similar, but the Qing army was completely defeated. If it hadn't been for the sudden heavy rain, the losses of the Qing army would have been even heavier, and the whole army might have been wiped out.
Yue Le always looked down on Ma Bao, thinking that "Wu Jun" was just a rabble. Most of the Eight Banners soldiers he brought with him were dispatched from outside the customs, and his riding and shooting skills were excellent.
the Qing army opened the way with artillery, followed by the cavalry of the Eight Banners, and it was overwhelming. Ma Bao told the infantry to stick to the camp, and the artillery returned fire. The Qing army suffered great losses, but it still did not retreat. Not long after the fighting, the outer defense line built by "Wu Jun" was destroyed and the main force was encircled by the Qing army. Yue Le was full of confidence, so he let the green campers kill him, and the infantry rushed to fight with "Wu Jun".
The "shrinking" of the encirclement is not good for the Qing army, because Ma Bao has prepared a "generous gift" to give Yue Le an unexpected surprise. The matchlock gun was bought by Wu Sangui from westerners and copied. Whether in range, firing rate or accuracy, Wu Jun's matchlock gun is superior to the Qing army's ware.
"Wu Jun" retaliated with a musket. After several volleys, the infantry offensive of the Qing army was frustrated. Ma Bao rate cavalry to kill, from both sides; Before and after the artillery fire, matchlock guns, followed by cavalry raids, the Qing army lost.
Wu Yingzheng underestimates the enemy and rushes forward. He leads his troops in pursuit and fights with the Qing infantry. Yue Yue saw that Wu Ying was far away from the range of the matchlock gun, and sent eight banners soldiers to attack and attack "Wu Jun" with infantry. In the fierce battle, Wu Yingzheng was seriously injured and fell off his horse. Xia Guoxiang rode alone to kill, even beheaded more than a dozen people of the Qing army, took Wu Yingzheng back to the camp, and "Wu Jun" retreated.
While retreating on the Wu Jun, Yue Le seized the fighter plane and sent the Eight Banners to counterattack, trying to destroy the camp in one fell swoop. Little imagine, Yue Le was taken in by Ma Bao again, and the elephant soldiers of "Wu Jun" had already made preparations.
Elephant soldiers are powerful and effective weapons against cavalry. If the head-on confrontation, elephant soldiers don't have much advantage. Pan Mei, Fu Youde and Mu Ying can easily deal with elephant soldiers or even wipe out them. As for the combat capability of the elephant soldier, Ma Bao naturally knew that he didn't let the elephant soldier confront him head-on, but ambushed him and gave Yue Le a surprise.
Ma Bao asked Xia Guogui to lead an ambush like a soldier, while himself led elite cavalry to bypass the rear of the position. The cavalry of the Eight Banners charged, and they came to kill the retreating "Wu Jun". On the way, the elephant soldiers suddenly came out, and the horses were frightened, and the Eight Banners suffered a fiasco.
The formation of the Eight Banners was in chaos. The cavalry lost the advantage of group impact, and the elephant soldiers followed and pursued, and Ma Bao came from the rear. The infantry has been weakened, the formation of the Eight Banners cavalry is in chaos, and the Qing army is in fear.
"Wu Jun" took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the Qing army suffered a losing streak and was forced to retreat to the Guanshan camp, unable to hold on. Ma Bao bombarded many fences with artillery, and the "rattan soldiers" immediately crossed the gap and fought hand-to-hand with the Qing army. Ma Bao was full of confidence, and asked the soldiers to attack quickly and take the camp before eating a big meal.
At this time, it rained heavily, the artillery failed, the road was muddy, and the line of sight was blocked, so "Wu Jun" had no choice but to call it quits. In the battle of Changsha, 61,111 Qing troops suffered a fiasco, but Yue Le couldn't hold on. The morale of the Qing army was low and there was no fighting spirit.
In the following battle of Yongxing, the Eight Banners suffered a crushing defeat, and dozens of generals were killed. Yue Le, Rabu and Mu Zhan were afraid to reinforce them.
