Chapter 252: Smashing

Chapter 252 Smash

On the outskirts of the capital, the Jurchens and the Mongols besieged the city on all sides, although there were constantly soldiers and horses of King Qin, because the combat power was not as good as the border army, they were all blocked by the Houjin soldiers and horses.

The soldiers and horses of the Qinwang are also very anxious, and one of them is even more cold. There were more than 2,000 people in total, and the clothes they wore were also varied, not to mention the weapons in their hands. Among them, there are suppressed arresters, old soldiers of the inspection department, and even old men with half-drawn beards. can organize such a group of people and run to the capital Qinwang, this leader is also a bit capable.

This army came from the Daimyo's Mansion, and it was the local prefect Lu Xiangsheng who led the troops. Lu Xiangsheng is also a strange person, obviously from the orthodox imperial examination, but he loves to practice martial arts, and has the courage of ten thousand people. It's ridiculous to say, Lu Xiangsheng's dream from childhood to adulthood is not to pass on the fragrance of books, but to fight on the battlefield and make contributions.

There was no chance before, but this time Lu Xiangsheng finally seized the opportunity, and immediately organized the Daimyo's Mansion Qingzhuang, and rushed to the capital in a hurry. Due to the complex structure of the contingent and the uneven quality of the troops, the marching speed was naturally much slower. When they arrived at the capital, the Tartars had already surrounded the capital. King Qin had a lot of soldiers and horses, but they all had their own scheming, and for a while, they let the Tartars block the periphery.

Lu Xiangsheng's temper has always been not very good, he couldn't stand it anymore, and decided to launch a night attack to kill a gap from the direction of the Yongding River.

At night, Lu Xiangsheng ignored the dissuasion of others, and resolutely led his men and horses towards the Yongding River. At this time, it was Azig who was stationed near the Yongding River.

Yongding River is not a good place, there is nothing to grab, and there is no merit to fish, at most it is to repel the rabble. No one in the Houjinbel group wanted to come to Yongding River to blow a cool breeze, and Azig went from the front line to Yongding River, which was almost equivalent to being kicked out.

Huang Taiji's meaning is very clear, since you Azig can't work, then you go to the rear to blow the cool breeze, and the next thing has nothing to do with you. It can be said that from now on, the benefits and merits obtained by the Houjin State will have little to do with Azig. However, Azig was not angry, especially after learning the news that the Yunfu Iron Cavalry had attacked Gyeongju, he was even more relieved.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and such an important thing can't be hidden for a long time, don't you say it yourself, and don't you say it to the Han people? When the truth is learned, the soldiers and horses of the various units will definitely be in chaos, and their morale will plummet, especially the people of Karaqin and Horqin, who are probably eager to put on their wings and fly back. In that case, it is easy to go wrong in a hasty retreat.

The generals of the Ming Dynasty are not fools, they will definitely go out of the city to chase and kill, try their best to delay, at that time, the people on the front line will be unlucky. Moreover, Azig had already received a private message from Dorgon yesterday, and he had another layer of plans in his heart.

The Ming Dynasty did not want Huang Taiji to quickly withdraw to Liaodong, and Dolgon also did not want Huang Taiji to rush back quickly. During this time, Dolgon's use of maneuver, perhaps promise or coercion, has attracted many powerful people. In short, the slower Huang Taiji rushed back, the more benefits Dolgon reaped.

Of course, the Yunfu Iron Cavalry may take Shenyang and cause irreparable losses to the Dajin Kingdom. But Dorgon felt that this was very unlikely, unless that Iron Ink really risked his life.

The Yunfu Iron Cavalry ravaged the northwest of Shenyang, which would also cause immeasurable damage to the Dajin Kingdom. But Dolgon doesn't care, whether it's Karaqin or Horqin, it's all Huang Taiji's territory. Dolgon thought very clearly, as long as the Yunfu Iron Cavalry did not come to fight Shenyang, let them toss, anyway, it was Huang Taiji who would be distressed at that time.

Azig leaned against a willow tree, drank spirits, and looked at the starry sky, and his mood was much more relaxed. Although he is not very close to Dorgon's younger brother, he has to admire Dolgon's intelligence, if it weren't for Dolgon's plan, the three brothers would have been suppressed by Huang Taiji long ago.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps in the distance, and a soldier with a red flag approached and said in a hurry: "Lord Belle, a Han army has just crossed the bridge, and it will contact us soon, Lord Dutong wants to ask you how to fight!" ”

"Huh? When did those Han people become so bold? Dare to cross the river at night! Azig was amazed, he had already fought with those rabble a few times, and he knew something about the abilities of those people. Unexpectedly, there was a bold and ruthless man in this group of waste, leading the troops across the river, not afraid to fight with the warriors of the Dajin Kingdom?

Pinching his chin and thinking about it, a strange smile flashed in Azig's eyes, "What are you fighting?" Tell Ji Dutong to get out of the way, and treat it as if you didn't see it. ”

"Huh? Lord Belle, is this possible? The Great Khan already has an opinion on us, so let's let this Han army pass over......"

"Huh?" Azig's face turned cold, and his gaze crossed the soldier's face like a knife, "You just want to fight like that?" Fighting a war kills people, you know? ”

The soldier shuddered coldly, and did not dare to say a word more. He knew that if he continued to speak, Azig would kill someone. I am stupid enough, the relationship between the Great Khan and the three Azig brothers, the bald lice are obvious, why do you still say that?

.......

Late at night, cold as water, with a sky full of stars, Lu Xiangsheng walked forward cautiously, but what surprised him was that the expected vicious battle was not encountered, and the road was unimpeded, except for alarming a few wild birds, he didn't even see the figure of the Tartar.

What's going on? The Tartars are so lax in defense?

In this way, Lu Xiangsheng rushed to the city of Tongzhou in a daze, and then crossed Tongzhou City and came to the most cruel battlefield of Deshengmen on the periphery of the capital.

Lu Xiangsheng was a little confused, along the way, it was too smooth, and it was so smooth that people couldn't believe it. But no matter what, since you came in, you can't come in vain. At that time, when he was sleepy, Lu Xiangsheng quietly touched the outside of a camp.

"Remember, set fire to it as soon as you enter, try to create chaos, don't fight, and after a quarter of an hour, all rush inside and join the defenders of Deshengmen!"

"I know, Lord Prefect, let's do it, the masters of our Daimyo Mansion will not disgrace you!"

"Good!"

Lu Xiangsheng made a gesture, and the two young men quietly touched over and quickly solved the two guards at the door. I have to say that the Jurchens are really too arrogant, they feel that there are people guarding the periphery, and most of those Qinwang soldiers and horses are rabble, and they don't have any precautions against night attacks, so the vigilance at night is much lax.

The soldiers and horses of the Daimyo's Mansion entered the camp and immediately set fire to all directions, setting fire to many tents and houses. In the early winter, the weather was dry and dry, and the most fearful of fire, coupled with the cold wind, the fire soon swept half of the camp.

In the fire, Lu Xiangsheng led people to scatter around, making trouble everywhere, making the Jurchens anxious, and for a while they couldn't figure out how many soldiers and horses were attacking.

Hauge was awakened from his sleep and rushed out in a hurry, "What's the matter?" Did that old guy Hou Shilu bring someone to kill him? ”

"No..... The enemy was killed from the south," Yue Zhen had a dark face, and hurriedly put on his armor as he walked.

"Southside?" Hauge's face was distorted, and he cursed in a low voice, "Azig raised by a son of a bitch." ”

was touched by a rabble camp, Hauge was quite unhappy, "Yue Xu, you go to block the door, you must leave this group of Han dogs behind, otherwise, we will become a joke." ”

Yue Xuan's face was not good-looking, although there was a reason why Azig secretly made it bad, but it was really embarrassing to let a group of rabble make the camp look like this. If you leave this group of Han dogs behind, you can still get some face.

When the Jurchens reacted, the gap in the combat quality of the two sides was revealed, and under the joint efforts of the Jurchen soldiers and horses, the losses of the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion became heavier and heavier. Fortunately, the places where it should be set on fire were set on fire, and Lu Xiangsheng led people to rush north.

Haoge slaughtered, and after a while, he saw a middle-aged man wielding the Green Dragon Glaive in the firelight, dressed in armor, and majestic. This man must be the one who leads, Haug roared and rushed forward with his sword. In the blink of an eye, the two were fighting together.

At first, Hauge was full of confidence, but after two rounds of fighting, he realized that he had underestimated the man in front of him. The Qinglong Yanyue Knife weighed as much as a thousand pounds, one knife and one style, which seemed clumsy, but it was a deadly move.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't have the heart to fight with Haoge, and when he saw the opportunity, the Qinglong knife smashed down heavily, slashing Haoge back several steps. Haoge's face was furious, but Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said: "Haha, Tartar, Lao Tzu will go, the next time we meet, Lao Tzu will take your head!" ”

"You..... Han people, tell me, your name ....."

"Remember, your grandfather's name is Lu Xiangsheng!"

Lu Xiangsheng put aside this sentence, dragged his long knife upside down, turned over and rode a fast horse, and rushed towards the north. At this time, most of the remnants of the Daimyo's Mansion had been killed to the periphery, and what made Lu Xiangsheng even happier was that Hou Shilu saw that the Tartar camp was on fire, and he also sent people to come.

.......

Outside the Desheng Gate, with the light of the torch, Hou Shilu saw the appearance of the person who came clearly. After a closer look, they are still acquaintances.

"Lord Lu, it's you!"

"Haha, Chief Hou, how about it, this official will kill the Tartars, no worse than you!" Lu Xiangsheng smiled heartily and arched his hand towards Hou Shilu.

Hou Shilu shook his head and smiled bitterly, this Lu madman, what kind of imperial examination did he take the exam, he should have gone to the martial arts championship. The first time I saw a civilian official leading the troops into battle, this guy was still so strong.

Things in the world are so mysterious, some people are happy, and some people are not alone. Hou Shilu not only ushered in Lu Xiangsheng, but also got a good news.

Lu Xiangsheng was gobbling up noodles, and when he saw Hou Shilu's happy face, he couldn't help but be curious: "Chief Hou, but what's the good thing?" ”

"Yes, just now His Majesty sent someone to deliver the news that the iron garrison has led an army of 20,000 to break through Gyeongju City and wave troops to Korqin. Now, it's Tartar's turn to have a headache, I'm not like he can come when he wants, and he can leave if he wants! ”

"Oh, that's it? Chief Hou, this person you are talking about is the Yunfu garrison Tiemo? ”

"That's the man!"

On the other side, Huang Taiji's face seemed to be covered with frost, and at this time, he had no heart to investigate Azig's fault, let alone get angry with Hauge because the camp was attacked.

Not long ago, the news that the Han people had conquered Gyeongju was spread, and the news spread rapidly, and at this time all the soldiers and horses knew the news. This is going to be a big deal, and Uliangha is the most anxious, and he is the first to stand up and go back. This is not to blame Wu Liangha, the Han people attacked Gyeongju, then the Karaqin Department must have suffered, if you don't go back, the ghost knows what the Karaqin Department will be destroyed by the Han people? What's even worse is that Lin Dan Khan will let go of this opportunity to make benefits?

Uliangha had to rush back, he was afraid that if he didn't go back, the beauties, cattle and sheep of Karaqin would all be robbed by the Han and Lin Dan Khan.

Horqin's Burgatu followed, Gyeongju City has fallen, can Horqin still hide? When it comes to his own vital interests, he doesn't care what Huang Taiji thinks.

In just half a day, many tribes all came to ask for their lives to go home, and the matter reached this level, and Huang Taiji had nothing to do. Even if they don't go back, the morale of the various units is low, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and it is dangerous to stay. The withdrawal of troops is imminent, so how to withdraw troops has become the most headache.

At this time, no one will be happy to send anyone in the back. I knew that there was today's situation, so I didn't transfer Azige to Yongding River in the first place.

Huang Taiji wanted to retreat, but the Ming army launched an active attack instead, and the intention of the Ming army was obvious, that is, to delay the retreat of the Houjin departments.

On November 24 of the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji took Haoge, Yue Xu, and Mang Gurtai as the rear army, and intercepted the Ming soldiers and horses along the canal. Yue Xu, Hao Ge and others led the elite forces of the two yellow flags and the red flag to fight against the elite army of Hou Shilu and Yuan Chonghuan, and the fierce battle lasted for a day, and the Ming army finally failed to break through the canal defense line.

On November 25, Hauge and others, who had completed the task of the palace, waved their troops and retreated, and this retreat road also became the road of death. In order to block the pursuit of the Ming army, the soldiers and horses under the command of Hao Ge and others suffered heavy losses, and now they are retreating, which gives the Ming army an opportunity to chase and kill.

On the same day, Li Jiasheng, the general of Xuanfu, Lou Daji, the general of Datong Prefecture, and Zu Dashou and He Kegang, the general of Liaodong, led more than 20,000 people of Xuanfu cavalry and Guanning iron cavalry, all the way to the north of Jizhou.

In this battle, the Ming army suffered more than 6,000 casualties, and the other party did not get any benefits, the two yellow flags and the positive red flag lost more than 4,000 people, especially the two yellow flags, and the elite was almost completely lost.

On November 26, the Ming army pursued and killed all the way, recovering Sanhe, Xianghe, Jizhou and Zunhua and other places.

This time, not only was it much shorter than in history, but due to the hasty retreat, half of the supplies along the way were intercepted by the Ming army.
