After the Jin army wantonly looted all the way, captured a lot, the soldiers and generals also made a lot of money, morale is flourishing, Huang Taiji ordered, the soldiers and generals immediately like the wolf cubs who smelled the smell of meat, rushed to the capital of Daming.

At that time, it was November 20, 1629 (the second year of Ming Chongzhen and the third year of Jin Tiancong).

Outside Beijing, Huang Taiji grabbed the reins of the horse, stared at it, and it was Deshengmen in front of him.

Huang Taiji had imagined the splendor and grandeur of his horse driving Beijing countless times, but at this time, he had obviously forgotten the purpose of his trip, and was eager to turn his imagination into reality immediately.

But he tried hard not to lose his mind, turned around and asked, "Which team is the Ming army guarding the Desheng Gate?" ”

Da Beile Dai said: "The city is the garrison of Beijing City and the defenders of the Ming Dynasty, and the city is mainly the Qinwang troops of the Datong General Soldier Man Gui and the Xuanfu General Soldier Hou Shilu. ”

Huang Taiji let out an "oh" and said: "I have calculated, Beijing City has not experienced war for one hundred and eighty years, and his garrison must be useless, so there is nothing to worry about, but Man Gui and Hou Shilu are a little interesting."

Well, that's it, let's deal with Man Gui and Hou Shilu first. If these two are solved, won't Beijing City be at your fingertips? Haha, maybe we'll have a very unexpected gain. ”

Belezir Harang, Yue Xu, Dudu, Sakhalian and others could not hold back for a long time, and when they heard this, they immediately rushed forward.

Huang Taiji smiled: "Don't worry, when you kill the enemy, well, we are new to Beijing, we can't lose our momentum too quietly, this time we will also let the Ming army taste the power of our artillery." After speaking, he waved his hand.

The artillerymen understood and began to fire.

The cannonballs whistled towards the Ming army, and a sea of fire ignited when they landed.

The Houjin soldiers had suffered a lot of cannon losses before, and when they saw that they also had cannons, they couldn't help cheering in unison, but they forgot to attack after the shelling, until Huang Taiji shouted, "Zhong'erlang, follow me to attack." Only then did he rush towards the Ming army with him.

The Mongol soldiers and the Red Banner Protector attacked from the west, and the Yellow Banner Protector rushed to kill from the side.

The defenders under the city of Deshengmen of the Ming army were the Qinwang troops of the Datong general soldier Man Gui and the Xuanfu general soldier Hou Shilu. After rushing to the capital by order, the two governors were very important, and they did not dare to make a mistake.

On this day, the two were studying the enemy's situation, and the bombardment of the Houjin army began.

After the Houjin artillery bombardment ended, seeing that the Houjin army rushed over in two ways, Hou Shilu shouted, and led his troops to meet the enemy troops coming from the west, while Man Gui led his troops to meet the enemy troops coming from the side.

One side is determined to win, and the other side swears to defend to the death, this fight is not to kill, the corpses are all over the field, and the blood is flowing like a river, but no one is willing to retreat.

Suddenly, Hou Shilu's horse stumbled and fell off the horse. The guards were unable to rescue and were killed by the Houjin soldiers.

Later, Jin Bing immediately shouted: "Hou Shilu is dead—Hou Shilu is dead—"

When Hou Shilu's subordinates heard this, their fighting spirit was lost, and it didn't take long for them to be defeated by the Houjin soldiers.

After the Jin soldiers defeated Hou Shilu, they immediately joined up with the other road and attacked the Mangui Division.

Man Gui was fearless and led the army to fight alone. In the end, they were outnumbered and in danger.

The garrison troops in the city, seeing that the situation was not good, fired artillery to cooperate. However, the enemy and us were staggered, and many Mangui officers and soldiers were accidentally injured. Man Gui was also wounded in many places, but he still fought until Houjin suddenly withdrew his troops.

Man Gui took more than 100 defeated soldiers to the Guandi Temple outside the city to rest, and the next day, the defenders opened the urn city of Desheng Gate for the remnants of Man Gui to recuperate.

The Houjin army was in the upper hand, and it was about to defeat the Mangui officers and soldiers, why did Huang Taiji suddenly withdraw his troops?

It turned out that the Houjin army, which attacked Guangqumen on the other side, had been defeated, and if it did not collect its troops in time, the Houjin army would have to face the Ming army's two-way attack, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

On the other hand, the Houjin army attacking Guangqumen was led by the Great Belle Mang Gurtai and the White Armor Guards led by Belle Abatai, Azig, Dolgon, Duoduo, and Haoge and 2,000 Mongol soldiers, and the battle began almost at the same time as the Battle of Deshengmen.

Against it, it was the nine thousand Guanning Iron Cavalry led by Yuan Chonghuan.

Realizing his mistake, Yuan Chonghuan led his troops to Beijing without stopping. As soon as he arrived at Guangqumen, he saw that the Houjin army rushed over in the dark, and hurriedly ordered Zu Dashou to be in the south, Wang Chengyin in the northwest, and led his troops in the west, forming a "product" zigzag formation, and waiting for the enemy in the east.

After this road, the Jin army was divided into four divisions, including the forward Abatai Division, the Azig Division, the Dolgon Division, and the Hauge Division, because they did not encounter any effective resistance along the way, they became increasingly arrogant, and saw that the Ming army had just arrived, and wanted to take advantage of its foothold to eat the Ming army in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the four went straight to the southeast corner of the ancestral Dashou department. When he was about to engage the ancestral department, he discovered Wang Chengyin's department again, that is, the Haoge department had to turn north and go straight to the king's department. The royal army migrated to the south, and the other three still rushed straight to the ancestral department.

At this time, the Houjin army found out that this Ming army was none other than the Guanning army that made them suffer so much.

Guan Ning's military fruit is also different from other Ming armies, although the enemy is outnumbered, but it can be anxious but not chaotic, and advance and retreat in a certain way.

After three divisions, the Jin army attacked the ancestral Dashou department, and charged twice, but failed to penetrate the ancestral department, but let the ancestral department retreat to the trench while fighting. In this way, the ancestral department has the support of the garrison in the city, and it is no longer possible to eat the ancestral department.

Similarly, Wang Chengyin's troops were not only not disrupted and defeated, but broke out of the encirclement and formed a stalemate with the Haoge department.

Seeing that the Later Jin army failed to completely defeat Wang and Zu, they concentrated two more cavalry and broke into Yuan Chonghuan's army formation to the west, trying to use this as a breakthrough.

Yuan Chonghuan shouted, "Kill the slaves—" and drove his horse up to meet him.

All the soldiers had already gathered enough strength, heard the words, and marched forward bravely, bravely resisted, and fought hard.

The Houjin army fought for a long time without success, and was afraid of the heroism of the Guanning army, so they began to greet with bows and arrows.

After only a while, Yuan Chonghuan was shot by the arrows of the Houjin army, and his ribs were like hedgehogs, and he was not shot through while wearing heavy armor.

Yuan Chonghuan and the soldiers were determined to die, and they were not afraid, and fought hard to kill the enemy while dialing the carving feather. Gradually, the Ming army dragged the battle from passive defense to a stalemate between the two sides.

When it comes to the stalemate stage, it has completely become a contest of willpower, and often whoever can hold on can win the final victory.

The Haoge Department has been in Liaodong for the longest time, and naturally suffers the most from the Guanning Army, and after recognizing the Guanning Army, he first felt a little cowardly psychologically, and he couldn't fight for a long time, and most of the anger in his heart couldn't help but vent.

Wang Chengyin's eyes were like torches, he looked at the fire, seized the opportunity, fought hard, and the Haoge Department was defeated.

As the so-called defeat is like a mountain, the Hauge Department was defeated, and the other three Hou Jin troops did not know why, and their fighting spirit was lost, and they were also defeated.

Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dashou took advantage of the situation to counterattack, joined forces with Wang Chengyin, and pursued hard, until they reached the canal, and then stopped.
