Li Laiheng said to Lao Jiu: "Okay, it's decided, that's it." Lao Jiu, if we don't organize a few counterattacks, the Qing troops will continue to move south and west. Then invite Li Yan, Hao Shaoqi, Gu Ying, and Gu Kecheng to come over, and we will discuss it together, fight a few victories here, and stop the offensive of the Qing army. ”

"But we are already struggling to defend here, can we still take the initiative to attack?" Lao Jiu was puzzled. Seeing the posture of the soldiers, Dorgon was ready to attack the city in a big way.

"Sometimes, offense is the best defense," Lee said. "It's really a risk to strike now.

The troops concentrated in the vicinity of Beijing were all the elite of Manchuria, and the troops attacking to the west and south were mostly Mongol soldiers and the troops of the four major vassal kings, including a small number of Manchurian soldiers, such troops were already invincible. For example, the tens of thousands of troops led by Azig, of which there were only more than 10,000 Qing soldiers, Li Guo was so brave and good at fighting, and after holding on for a period of time, he already felt very difficult.

Dolgon was anxious to move the capital to Beijing, so he used heavy forces around Beijing, preparing to clear the surrounding troops before attacking the city. At this time, Li Laiheng could not defend a dead city of Beijing, so he had to separate his troops and station them in several places, using each other as horns, and extend the scope of control beyond Beijing as much as possible, to the seaside.

A lonely city can't be defended, and it doesn't make much sense to hold it. For a city to be vibrant, it must first be open, there must be trade, and there must be supply. If the gates were closed all day long, the interior would fall apart.

Now Li Laiheng's troops are shrinking in Tongzhou, Juyongguan, Fangshan, Xishan, and Dolgon's troop deployment, which is almost intertwined with Li Laiheng. Tongzhou, Shunyi, and Daxing deployed large armies in three directions, and the area from Funing to Shanhaiguan has become their core area. Dolgon's camp was set up in Shunyi, where Huairou and Miyun were to the north. At this time, Huairou and Miyun were under the control of the Qing soldiers. So the Great Wall was already a virtual reality, and both Li Laiheng and Dolgon controlled a section of the Great Wall.

"Attack Shunyi!" Li Yan was taken aback when he heard Li Laiheng's words.

"Attack Shunyi?"

"yes, it hurts him!"

Dorgon was also distressed. Last time, he suffered such a big loss, and he was eager to occupy Beijing. The occupation of Beijing had three aims: First, the need for internal struggle. Within the Manchus, he purged the Hauges of their faction by thunderbolt before leaving the country, and on the surface, he became the de facto supreme ruler of the Manchus. However, the Manchu Qing was very complicated, and there were many factions simply under the line of Nurhachi's son.

Nurhachi had a total of sixteen sons, eight of whom were the founding fathers of the Qing Dynasty, they were the eldest son Chu Ying, the second son Dai Shan, the fifth son Mang Gurtai, the seventh son Abatai, the eighth son Huang Taiji, the twelfth son Azig, the fourteenth son Dolgon, and the fifteenth son Duoduo. The rest of Nurhachi's sons, such as the third son Abai, the fourth son Tanggu, the sixth son Tabai, the ninth son Babutai, the tenth son Dege, the eleventh son Babuhai, and the thirteenth son Rembubu, also performed great deeds. So Dolgon's brothers are a mess that is hard to sort out.

And Huang Taiji's eldest son, Hauge, although it seems that there is no possibility of much to do, but the world is unpredictable, his sympathizers, his secret supporters, are always watching Dolgon's victory or defeat. Even his mother's brother and Prince Azig of Shuoying, his military exploits have gradually accumulated, and he may be a formidable opponent of Dolgon in the future.

Therefore, the situation of internal struggle also forced Dolgon to occupy Beijing as soon as possible, so that his merits and status could not be shaken. For the Ming Dynasty or the Great Shun Dynasty, Dolgon had to occupy Beijing as soon as possible. Beijing is a symbol, a symbol of imperial power, a symbol of the existence of a generation of regimes. Dashun was proclaimed emperor in Xi'an; Zhang Xianzhong was proclaimed emperor in CD; the remnants of the Ming Dynasty were waiting for the crown prince to ascend the throne, and some could not wait, and many descendants of the Zhu family had been proclaimed emperor, such as Zhu Yousong established the Hongguang regime in Nanjing, and at the same time, the Shaowu regime and the Yongli regime appeared. At once, many emperors appeared in the country.

Therefore, Dolgon had to quickly occupy Beijing and stabilize the north before he could go all out to eliminate the local regimes. The third reason can't be on the stage, and that is that Dolgon's heroic beauty is closed. He longed for the first beauty of the Manchu people to live in the grand complex of the Forbidden City, and in this palace that showed imperial power, he Dolgon, as the regent of the imperial father, could freely enter and leave the inner palace, and he could see her whenever he wanted.

After a day's hard work, when it was time to rest, the beautiful shadow of filial piety would appear in front of his eyes, and he had an unbearable desire that made his blood burn. He often spent long dark nights under such torment. He made a final decision, and within half a month, he must take the city of Beijing.

Dorgon summoned another of his half-brothers, who were also famous generals of the generation, to take in the account. Both Dordor and Azig were Dorgon's half-brothers, and he was Nurhachi's fifteenth son, prince, general of Dingguo, and lord of the White Banner.

"Duoduo, within ten days, do you have the confidence to capture Beijing?"

"Yes!" replied Dodor without hesitation.

"Good. You lead the white flag, and 30,000 Mongol and Han soldiers, as the main force to attack Beijing, and I will send another 40,000 troops to help you attack the city, and you will be limited to capture the city of Beijing within ten days. Dolgon's tone was very dignified.

Almost at the same time, the commanders of both armies made the decision to attack. Li Laiheng began the first all-army operation of the entire legion, and he swarmed out of Changping City. In Dolgon's view, Li Laiheng's dispatch of troops from Changping must have been to reinforce the city of Beijing. So he sent heavy troops to intercept in the direction of Dongsheng.

However, Li Laiheng's troops did not appear in the direction of Dongsheng at all. And when Dolgon was puzzled, the position of ten Niu Lu with yellow flags near Qian's tomb was suddenly attacked by Li Laiheng. This time, Li Laiheng's entire legion's actions, for the ten Niu Lu, he can turn a blind eye, and he really turns a blind eye. He did not distinguish between the front army, the rear army, the left and the right army, he opened the way with his 300 elites, and 10,000 cavalry, 10,000 siege divisions, and 10,000 mountain war divisions swept through in the form of wild geese.

Ten Bulls is not a force to be reckoned with in the past. But today's 3,000 Qing soldiers with yellow flags are very pitiful, and after this locust-like sweep, all they left behind are corpses and stumps. To Dorgon's surprise, the force seemed to be oblivious to the 20,000 Qing soldiers stationed near Matouzhuang and went straight to Dolgon's main village in Shunyi.

Dolgon seems to have been insulted, and someone actually traveled dozens of miles to attack his imperial father, the regent of the Qing Dynasty, the supreme military commander of the Qing Empire. Who else in this world dares to defy the regent of the royal father, Dorgon?

"Okay, then come on. Duoduo continues to attack the city of Beijing, and I will personally lead the troops to clean you up. Dorgon also made a tough response, he did not let Dord's troops come back, he was ready to use his own 30,000 elites against Li Laiheng's 30,000 elites.

Of course, if it were a different era, or a different opponent, and Dorgon fought with the same number of troops as the opponent with 30,000 troops, it would be very worthy of the opponent. He once confronted Hong Chengchou's 130,000 Ming army with 40,000 troops, and if it weren't for his imperial brother Huang Taiji's strict order to prevent him from attacking, he was confident that it would be more than enough to defeat Hong Chengchou's 130,000 Ming army with his 40,000 troops.

But today's opponent is Lee Rae-hyung. So far, Dolgon has not bargained in front of Li Laiheng, and the last time he was under the city of Beijing, in full view of everyone, he Dolgon had a real defeat for the first time in his life.

Today, he wants to seek justice, how can a commander of a military group whose combat strength belongs to the world's top level be defeated in front of Li Zicheng, the leader of a front army?

"Open the gate of the camp and put on a battle of green dragons and white tigers!" Dolgon gave the battle order.

At that time, Nurhachi started with thirteen deputy soldiers, and after only a few decades of war, the entire Northeast and most of Mongolia were under his iron hooves, a great Ming Empire and a tenacious and tenacious Korean kingdom, the Green Dragon and White Tiger Formation is their continuous summary and innovation of tactics according to actual combat, concise, practical, and has never been defeated.

When Nurhachi's grandfather and father were mistakenly killed for the Ming Dynasty, Nurha questioned the Ming Dynasty officials about this matter, and the Ming Dynasty then named him the general of the Dragon and Tiger, with an edict of thirty and thirty soldiers. The two words dragon and tiger were deeply ingrained in his mind. Therefore, later Nurhachi invented his own tactics in battle, and when he named the tactics he created, he remembered the words dragon and tiger, so he called the most commonly used tactics as the Green Dragon and White Tiger Formation.

The so-called Green Dragon and White Tiger Formation, it is composed of two main formations, one is the Green Dragon, the other is the White Tiger, the two formations are not only independent large arrays, but also a large array of left and right cycles that are horns of each other. The most practical thing about this formation is that it is not complicated, but it is very powerful. His green dragon and white tiger are like the left and right hands of a person, like the two horns of a cow or a sheep, and more like the teeth of the upper and lower jaws of a tiger. To put it bluntly, it is a formation in which the green dragon and the white tiger support each other and cover each other. It was by virtue of his proficiency in mastering and using this Blue Dragon and White Tiger Formation that Nurhachi created a new world for his Manchu Dynasty.

As Nurhachi's son, Dolgon can be said to have grown up in this kind of formation. Although they later had more inventions and creations, the most practical and handy formation was still this Green Dragon and White Tiger Formation.

Today he is the third confrontation with the strongest opponent he has ever met in his life, Dolgon has already lost twice, this time he will not lose, he can't afford to lose, he is ready to use these two most powerful horns to fight Li Laiheng, with the most powerful jaw sharp teeth to bite Li Laiheng.

The two main formations on the left and right of Dolgon were squarely placed at the west gate of Shunyi City. The Qing soldiers became very excited by the rousing horn of the horn, in which they had enjoyed the pleasure of killing for many years, and as the horn stopped, the scimitars in their hands were raised above their heads and glittered in the sun.

Li Laiheng's men and horses are arranged according to the character pattern, or like the words of the wild goose. They stared coldly at the flickering white light in front of them.

Li Laiheng was the only one of these people, and there were tens of thousands of horses within thirty miles of Dolgon's camp. Did Li Laiheng have any reinforcements, and if so, from which side? Dolgon asked himself.
