In the season of falling snowflakes, this year's weather is becoming more complex and changeable.

There was no snow last night or morning, and this noon, the snowflakes are falling again.

In the middle of the ground, on a snow-white earth, from the southeast, the sound of horses' hooves gradually sounded, coming from far and near.

The sound of the horse's hooves grew louder and louder, and at last, like thunder, even the ground began to tremble.

This is a huge army that cannot be seen from beginning to end, and the number of men and horses is at least close to 50,000!

At this time, a horse rushed from the west and came straight to the front of this army full of cavalry.

He dismounted from a distance, and then ran to a brave young man in bright silver armor, and bowed his head:

"Report to Prince Heshuo, fifteen miles ahead is Haizhou City, and I didn't find that the strange army of the Ming Dynasty blocked the road."

"However, those imperial army armies that are different from the past have already arranged a huge chain of defensive positions in the south, north, and west of Haizhou City."

"Now Haizhou City, only the east is still under the control of the Great Belle Hauge."

"The most important thing is that the mysterious Ming court army Lu Xiangsheng Division sent out an army of 30,000 yesterday afternoon to capture Dongshengbao and the ancient city of Tun in the northwest by surprise!"

This sentry had just finished reporting, and before Dolgon, who was caught off guard and a little stunned by the accident, spoke, another team of Tartar sentry sentries suddenly appeared from the left front of the army!

This group of more than a dozen detective sentinels came to Dolgon and the others a moment later, and after kneeling on the ground and saluting, he said:

"Prince Heshuo, several of our scouts of 100 have fought with several scouts from the Ming Imperial Court."

"However, although they are not many in number, they are extremely well armed, they are all dressed in black clothes and black armor, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, with the same number of people, we are not opponents!"

The sentry at the head of the group, when he saw that Dolgon was angry, was about to draw his sword, and hurriedly shouted again, "They have a strong crossbow capable of firing a hundred and fifty paces away, and can shoot continuously, and most of us have been shot before we have even approached the enemy!" ”

"As a result, in several encounters, they were only shot by us, while our outpost brigade lost hundreds of warriors."

Prince Heshuo's face was pale, and his eyes flashed with coldness and a little dazed, obviously angry and frightened.

He was now only a young man, and his younger brother Dordor was now less than fourteen years old.

And the eldest brother, Azig, has already surrendered to Huang Taiji, and he and the brothers are not of the same mind.

As a result, in the past two years, Dorgon has been aggrieved, and even his temper has become more and more irritable, and his personality has become more and more gloomy.

When he is angry, he will draw his sword and kill him.

This makes these surviving sentinels, how not afraid?

They trembled a little, finished the information, gritted their teeth, and waited for the flag lord to read the ox to their orders

The losses of the various teams of the outposts this time were too great and too humiliating.

It's just that these sentinels, kneeling on the ground for a while, did not hear the shouting and scolding of their masters, nor did they see the horsewhip or scimitar falling, and they raised their heads slightly with some curiosity and glanced at the banner master.

But they saw that the flag lord and several Gushan Ezhen behind him were all stunned, and their eyes were a little straight!

"Huh?" ……

At this moment, all the generals with white flags led by Dolgon were almost stunned!

Since last winter, they followed Huang Taiji to conquer Goryeo and returned victoriously, and they were taken by Huang Taiji to attack Jinzhou and Ningyuan.

After the end of the Ningjin War, Huang Taiji found an excuse and sent him to be stationed in the Yalu River basin to guard Zhenjiang Fort, Dadian Fort, and Kuandian Fort...... Uiju and other places.

The main reason for this is that this year, there was a big grain shortage in Houjin, and someone had to go to Goryeo to plunder supplies and urge the king of Goryeo to make offerings on time.

It was precisely because of the vigorous "assistance" of Goguryeo's massive grain and grass, and Huang Taiji's adoption of the strategy of repairing the city and tuntian, and engaging in large-scale production, that Houjin was able to survive an almost unprecedented crisis of grain shortage.

Thus, in just a few months, the internal stability was quickly stabilized, most of the civil strife was quelled, and the vitality was restored.

Huang Taiji's series of divine operations gave him great prestige in Houjin.

also cut off the heart of Prince Dolgon, the prince of Heshuo, who wanted to move, and obeyed Huang Taiji's arrangement honestly and step by step.

In the past six months, he has been expelled from the power of Huang Taiji, and he should not be too aggrieved.

It's just that the night before, he received an urgent order from Huang Taiji for 800 miles.

In terms of order, the Ming Empire has undergone earth-shaking changes, and now it is counterattacking Liaodong, ordering him to take all the soldiers with white flags, together with the 20,000 Mongolian cavalry who assisted in defending the Yalu River, to immediately rush to the aid of Haizhou City, without the slightest delay!

So, in a daze, Dolgon, urgently summoned 30,000 soldiers and 20,000 Mongol cavalry from his headquarters, and immediately set off early the next morning, and spent a night finally arriving at the southeast fifteen miles near the city of Haizhou.

Where did you think that for the sake of curiosity and prudence, dozens of sentinel teams sent to inquire about the news actually suffered heavy casualties, and brought back such terrifying news!

"This imperial army has changed so much?"

Dorgon really couldn't believe it.

Now that it has only been half a year since the "Ningjin War", this Ming Dynasty court has changed so much, which makes people feel like a dream.

The night before, when he received Huang Taiji's secret order, he was still half-convinced, and some blamed Huang Taiji for being surprised.

Normally, unless there are immortals, otherwise the rapid decline of the Ming Empire has become a foregone conclusion.

The Ming Empire, which is hard to return and sick to the bone marrow, knows that it is slipping from the peak to the trough, where can it rise again?

Judging from the current situation, the court of the Ming Empire has really undergone earth-shaking changes.

The emperor, who was originally going to die, has not recovered from his body, and has built such a strong army, he actually has the courage to counterattack Liaodong!

Dorgon wasn't a fool.

He was an extremely intelligent man, a man with great ambition and great ability.

is not a capable person, he has been played to death by Huang Taiji in the past two years.

Where can he still be like now, safe and sound, with his younger brother Duoduo, who controls the current Houjin's best two-banner army.

Today's Huang Taiji has not yet competed with the two brothers of Dolgon and Duoduo, and has surpassed the two yellow flags of Huang Taiji, and there are about 100 main battle bulls in their hands.

The two white flags are now worthy of the name of the first and second combat forces of Houjin.

Dolgon, not only smart, but also a hero second only to Huang Taiji, is slightly inferior to Huang Taiji in all aspects.

There are various reasons for the failure of the battle for the throne, and it is also due to Dorgon's bad luck, not his lack of ability.

"This Emperor Taiji, doesn't he want to borrow the hands of the imperial court to wantonly consume the two white flags of our brothers?"

Suddenly, this thought flashed through Dolgon's heart, and he was suddenly shocked in his heart.

The younger brother Duoduo is now young, and the white flag under his command is all managed by the help of a few loyal Gushan Ezhen.

But listening to these outposts, the imperial army has now conquered Niangniang Palace, Xining Fort, and even all the towns and military forts along the Great Liao River and within the Great Wall of the Western Liaoning Corridor.

Moreover, the latest news, the other way of the imperial army is attacking on the Liaodong Peninsula.

So in this way, the white flag in the hands of the younger brother must have suffered heavy losses!

Because, the area in this area is guarded and managed by the white flag.

"Whew!"

Dorgon let out a sigh of relief, his big black eyes rolling wildly, apparently panicked.

In his heart now, he is a little undecided.
