Mang Gurtai is now glad that he had made the decision to leave the city to meet the battle.

To be honest, the farcical battle this afternoon scared him a bit.

All the Houjin generals, including him, did not expect that the attack power of these Ming New Army would be so strong.

The cannon that can easily move with the army is not to be counted.

Although that kind of cannon is powerful, the power is not overwhelming, the destructive power is not very strong, and the own side is not necessarily afraid.

But the strong combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Ming New Army was a little terrifying.

It's not that they're good at riding, it's that they're too well armed.

The kind of repeater crossbow that can fire ten arrows in a row, and the kind of short gun that can fire two shots in a row, are both sharp weapons that can hit forty or fifty zhang away and can kill the enemy.

Not to mention the advantages of the extremely fast firing speed of those two weapons.

Moreover, these Ming New Army are truly well-trained.

They had strict military discipline and advanced and retreated in an orderly manner.

In the afternoon, the cavalry of the new army of the Ming Dynasty attacked, like a storm, swept the battlefield.

By the time he and the others reacted, the cavalry had actually ended the battle!

Moreover, in that short period of half-burnt incense, the 10,000 soldiers with blue flags on their side were wiped out without a single life.

Therefore, he ordered to set up camp immediately, and for the time being, all the generals were gathered together to discuss what was the best way to tide over this great crisis.

Fortunately, he had already set up camp out of the city, otherwise, he would have been besieged by the new army of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and he wanted to cry without tears at that time.

At least for now, if you want to fight your positive blue flag, you can fight it, and if you can't beat it, you can run away immediately.

As for running back to Shengjing City, whether it will be dealt with by Huang Taiji's furious excuse, I don't care so much.

It's really pushing myself, and I'm going to be mad.

The two brothers, Dorgon and Dodor, can take hundreds of thousands of people to the West and establish themselves as kings, why can't they themselves?

Since he won't hang himself from a tree, he has nearly a hundred Niu Lu's Blue Flag soldiers, and he has nothing to fear.

That big fat man Huang Taiji thought that he would be able to control himself by sending a two yellow flag soldiers with a curb and a few Niu Lu, which was simply a fool's dream.

If it weren't for now, if I didn't want to overstimulate that dead fat man, I would have taken down the two yellow flag soldiers of Na Kupilon and those Niu Lu a long time ago.

Mang Gurtai explained to several Gushan Ezhen and Jiala Ezhen that they must pay attention to the enemy's movements and do a good job of defense.

With a team of guards, he returned to the City Lord's Mansion in Gushan Fort, had a full meal, and regained a little bit of vitality.

With the large army of the Ming New Army pressing the border, they prepared to launch an attack on Gushan Fort.

He had already ordered that the rest of the food should be distributed according to twice the previous standard.

Because the war is about to begin, saving food is undoubtedly a foolish act.

As a result, during the Chinese New Year, the food of the defenders did not increase in the slightest and was firmly controlled.

However, with the arrival of Lu Xiangsheng, the defenders finally had a full meal, and it seemed that they wanted Lu Xiangsheng's blessing.

The consequence of this is that they are obviously ready to take a gamble.

There is very little grain reserve left in Mang Gurtai's hands, which can last for about half a month at most.

If the Ming New Army does not attack, he will lead the army to rush out and fight with the Ming New Army.

Otherwise, you will only be starved to death.

He hoped that the other party's generals would not know this, otherwise, the other party could completely wait for the rabbit and wait for his side to rush forward before launching a decisive battle.

Mang Gurtai came to the top of the tower of the city lord's mansion and looked out, and there was a constant sound of messy footsteps outside, which was the movement of his own troops.

Taking into account the actual situation of the Zhenglan Banner, Mang Gurtai adopted a resistance strategy of dispersing his troops into various thousand-man teams.

In layman's terms, it is to fight for each other.

Because at this point, it is impossible to concentrate troops and confront the Ming New Army.

The new army of the Ming Dynasty has dozens of powerful cannons, and the effect is not too good to deal with the dense military formation.

He was not a fool, but an experienced veteran, and certainly would not make that kind of low-level mistake.

What's more, under the continuous attack of the enemy's artillery, can the clansmen and soldiers on their own side continue to line up, and can they maintain the integrity of the formation under the enemy's high pressure?

In that case, Mang Gurtai was completely bottomless in his heart.

Since there is no bottom, then I have to herd the sheep.

Anyway, at this point, it is very difficult to hope for victory and hope that your soldiers will survive as much as possible.

If they don't want to run, unless they're willing to throw up their hands and surrender.

However, with the grudge between the Ming Kingdom and the Dajin Kingdom, even if they raised their hands to surrender, their generals still could not escape the fate of being beheaded in the end.

The only thing they can do is to fight with the other side with all their might, in order to defeat the Ming New Army, and at the worst, to increase the number of casualties to the Ming New Army.

From yesterday's dramatic battle and the rapid end, Mang Gurtai knew that the Northern Expedition of the Ming Empire was really coming.

Unwilling, really unwilling.

Mang Gurtai is not reconciled in any way, he is really not reconciled to his blue flag, here hastily ended the glorious past.

In recent years, the Zhenglan Banner and the Ming Dynasty have fought countless times in Liaodong, and their Zhenglan Banner warriors have made many great achievements.

In the first two years, Mang Gurtai had infinite scenery, and laid down many towns, military forts and guards in the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, even Huang Taiji had to publicly congratulate him, believing that Mang Gurtai's bravery, courage and courage were incomparable to other Baylors.

At that moment, Mang Gurtai was indeed intoxicated.

Entering the core hinterland of the Ming Kingdom from the Liaodong and Liaoxi corridors has always been Mang Gurtai's dream, and it is also an important way for the Later Jin Kingdom to rapidly expand abroad.

He had been planning for this for a long time, and as long as he did this, his military exploits would be much higher than those of Hauge, Dolgon, and others, and he would obtain much more benefits than theirs.

When the time comes, Huang Taiji, a fat man who looks like he will die soon, will be closer to the distance of the Khan of the Dajin Kingdom.

However, just as he was about to forge the most glorious life of his life, he suddenly fell from heaven to hell.

In December last year, the Ming New Army launched a recovery operation against the Liaoxi Corridor and the Liaodong Peninsula, completely stunned the Houjin side.

More than half of the two white flags were lost, and even the two Dolgon brothers were scared, and without even saying a word, they ran away to the western steppes to establish themselves as kings!

Such a heavy loss has never been seen in the history of the Houjin Kingdom.

When he heard the bad news at that time, Mang Gurtai's mind roared, and it was basically blank.

He even said to himself, the two white flags ran away, will it be his turn to be unlucky next?

Sure enough, now it's my turn to be unlucky, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Ming New Army are already in the city.

By the time he figured out what was going on, he had no chance of turning the tables around.

The current Gushan Fort has been completely cut off from the outside world by a large number of scout squads on the other side, and it can't even send information.

Whether it is materials or information, they are completely blocked, and several exits to various parts of the north, according to the reports of various scouts, have also been firmly blocked by these Ming new troops.

All of a sudden, they were abandoned by the Houjin Kingdom.

In the days that followed, they had to fight to the death.

"Did we fail like that?"

"If you fight hard, maybe there is hope."

"Otherwise, we must evacuate as soon as possible."

The voice of Suppilon echoed in the ears of Mang Gurtai at this time.

He was also distraught, so he found Mang Gurtai who was thinking about his thoughts and countermeasures on the top of the tower of the City Lord's Mansion.

Having seen the battle this afternoon, he knew that now was the most dangerous time for the Dajin Kingdom.

Especially today, he sent two Niu Lu's two Yellow Flag soldiers, divided into six hundred-man teams, to Liaoyang City and Shengjing City to report and ask for help.

But he knew that there was a ninety percent chance that these soldiers would never come back.

There is a great possibility that he will be ambushed and killed by a large number of scouts of the opponent.

These two days were the most tense and busiest two days since the reconstruction of Gushan Fort.

Since yesterday afternoon, when the soldiers of the Ming New Army came to the city, all their original fantasies and hopes have come to naught.

Even if Emperor Taiji got the news of the new army of the Ming Dynasty and led the army south, he did not have time to arrive at this lonely mountain fort before the new army of the Ming Dynasty started.

Fight hard??

Pack up and run away with the troops?

It's a dilemma.
