Chapter 432: Inexplicable
After Nurhachi annihilated Juniper and Marin two Ming troops, he immediately moved to the East Road, and then hit the Ming Army on the East Road, the Ming Army on the East Road was led by the famous general Liu Wei, Liu Wei was born in the martial arts, brave and good at fighting, known as "the first fierce general of the late Ming Dynasty", he has participated in the Ming Army's War of Resistance against Burma, the Ming Army's aid to the Korean War against the Japanese, the battle of pacifying the rebellion of Yang Yinglong in Banzhou, Wanli's "Three Great Expeditions" he almost fought all, and made great achievements, but because of his upright character, he was not liked by Yang Hao, so he was arranged to take the most difficult East Road,
Due to the rugged mountain roads and difficult movements, the East Route Army led by Liu Wei was unable to advance to Hetuara on schedule, so it did not know that the West Road and the North Road had been defeated, and still marched north according to the original plan. Nurhachi also knew that Liu Ling was brave and good at fighting, and did not dare to fight with him head-on, so he came up with a poisonous plan to lure him to set up an ambush and gather annihilation quickly, and arranged an ambush in Abu Dali Gang (Hetu Alanan) with the main force in advance, and a small number of soldiers pretended to be the Ming army, wearing Ming army armor, waving the banner of the Ming army, holding Juniper arrows, falsely claiming that the Juniper army was approaching Hetuala, and asked Liu Wei to advance quickly, Liu Wei believed it and immediately ordered the whole army to advance lightly.
Nurhachi was overjoyed to see Liu Ling's plan, and when Liu Wei led the army into the Houjin army ambush circle, he immediately let the Houjin cavalry attack Liu Ling's army from top to bottom, Liu Wei saw that the Houjin cavalry all over the mountains suddenly came out and immediately knew that he was in the plan, while fighting desperately to the death, while ordering a breakthrough, Liu Wei was worthy of the title of "the first fierce general of the late Ming Dynasty", in the situation of being outnumbered, he led his subordinates to fight bloodily, and killed a bloody road, and joined the follow-up troops who came, but at this time the Houjin army also caught up, At the same time, the Houjin army in ambush in the west also suddenly came out and attacked Liu Ling's army!
Seeing the Houjin cavalry charging from all directions, Liu Wei knew that he was no longer lucky, and raised his arms and shouted: "Sons, Liu is incompetent, and he has involved the three armies, and the only way to repay the country with death is to fight to the death!" The surrounding soldiers all shouted in unison: "Fight to the death!" Nurhachi, who was standing on a high place and watching the battle, also sighed when he saw this situation: "What a fierce general!" It's a pity that it can't be used by my Houjin......"
At this time, Guo Zhiyuan only wore . The storm caused by the smaller butterfly finally took effect, and a Houjin detective horse galloped over, rolled off his horse directly, knelt in front of Nurhachi, and reported urgently: "Report to the Great Khan, a Ming army under the banner of "Guo" sneaked up on my rear, and hundreds of forts in my rear were burned, killing ......more than 8,000 of my Eight Banners."
Nurhachi was struck by lightning, stunned for a while, and then suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, fell directly from the horse, thanks to the side of the emperor Taiji eyes and hands, a catch, see Nurha's red face like gold paper, personnel not awake, urgently call the army doctor to come to first aid, the army doctor to Nurhachi after the silver needle, Nurhachi woke up leisurely, said: "Mingjin retreat!" "Then I fainted again!
Huang Taiji was still young at this time, only twenty-seven years old, and he was a little panicked when he suddenly encountered this kind of thing, and he could only follow Nurhachi's instructions to Mingjin to withdraw his troops, Liu Wei was already determined to die, but found that it was only a matter of time before he had the advantage to annihilate them, and the Houjin army suddenly Mingjin withdrew his troops, which was really a little inexplicable, but he didn't think much about it, and quickly rushed out of the encirclement with his subordinates, retreating all the way along the way, and happened to meet the herald sent by Yang Hao, and then he knew the news that the Ming army on both sides of Juniper and Marin had been defeated, Thinking of the abnormal behavior of the Houjin army just now, Liu Wei concluded that something big must happen to the Houjin army, and asked the herald to quickly report the matter to Yang Hao, suggesting that Yang Hao lead the remaining Ming army in Shenyang to join the remnants of his Ming army on the east road and the Ming army on the south road of Li Rubai (the son of the famous general Li Chengliang) to launch a counterattack on the Houjin army, but Yang Hao was frightened by the news of the defeat of the Ming army on the two routes of Juniper and Marin, and did not adopt Liu Wei's suggestion, thus missing the only opportunity created by Guo Zhiyuan to turn the Ming army into victory!
Also feeling inexplicable are Dai Shan and Mang Gurtai who were ordered to ambush Liu Ling, Dai Shan is okay, as a big Belle, he has also cultivated some qi cultivation kung fu over the years, knowing that there must be an accident, Mang Gurtai is the most irritable, seeing that the boiled duck flew away because of the sudden Ming Jin collection order, naturally a belly of fire, angrily went straight to Nurhachi's Chinese military tent, and before the person entered the Chinese military tent, he couldn't suppress his anger and shouted: "Who ordered Ming Jin to withdraw the troops?" Khan Ama (everyone saw the prince calling the emperor in the TV series, Huang Ama was actually the name after being sinicized in the late Qing Dynasty) would never have given such a stupid order! ……”
At this time, Huang Taiji walked out of the middle military tent quickly, and shouted to Mang Gurtai with a serious face: "Fifth brother (Mang Gurtai is the fifth son of Nurhachi), silence!" Why did you order Mingjin to withdraw the troops, you will know when you enter the account! ……”
Huang Taiji is younger than Mang Gurtai, but he is more valued by Nurhachi, Mang Gurtai is naturally not convinced by him, but seeing Huang Taiji's solemn expression, he also knows that something big has happened, so he did not speak ill of him, walked into the Chinese military tent quickly, and saw Nurhachi who was unconscious, he was immediately shocked, grabbed Huang Taiji's collar, and shouted angrily in a low voice: "Khan Ama is fine, why is he suddenly unconscious?!" ……”
Huang Taiji also knew that Mang Gurtai was such an irascible character, so he didn't bother with him, broke his hand that grabbed his collar, sighed and said: "Fifth brother, you have to calm down, now we are fighting with the Ming army, Khan Ama suddenly fainted, we can't mess up...... this is the news of the sneak attack on the back road.
When Mang Gurtai heard this, he became more and more furious: "I'll take someone to kill the dog thief who sneaked up on my Houjin Houlu!" ……”
Huang Taiji hurriedly stopped: "The enemy situation is unknown, don't act rashly, or wait for Khan Ama to wake up before making a decision!" ……”
Mang Gurtai was already unconvinced by Huang Taiji, where would he listen to his persuasion, and said coldly: "I can't take your turn to take care of it!" Those Ming troops who sneaked up on my Houjin Houlu plundered so many people of our Houjin, the speed of the march must not be fast, and when I cut off the head of that bold general, I will come back to Khan Ama to ask for guilt! ......" After speaking, he pushed Huang Taiji away and walked out of the Chinese military tent without looking back!
Besides, Guo Zhiyuan was blocked by a sudden blizzard, so he knew that he couldn't catch up with the battle of Salhu, and he couldn't change the outcome of the defeat of the Ming army, so he could only order the withdrawal of the army, but fortunately, he had already let the infantry army take the captured materials and captured population to join Sun Zhiyong's remaining troops first, and he could retreat calmly with the cavalry of the New Army, but he still kept an eye on it, and left a small number of reconnaissance cavalry when retreating to cover the retreat of the large army. It was this decision that made him the first to know the news that Mang Gurtai was chasing after him with 10,000 Houjin Tieqi!
