Chapter 247: Great Victory!
"Emperor, Emperor, Qing Yu has retreated!" Huang Degong said in a daze.
Dolgon was seriously wounded, the Qing army retreated, and there is no doubt that this decisive battle was won by the Ming Dynasty!
Zhu Cihong was excited and stood there blankly.
"Hahahaha! I've won! Da Ming has won! Zhu Cihong looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing very heartily, the fate of the Ming Dynasty was rewritten by him after all, and the fate of the Chinese nation for hundreds of years will be different from today!
Not only Zhu Cihong, the remaining soldiers of the Yinglong Army and countless soldiers of the Ming Army, all excited, for decades, the Ming Dynasty has lost successive battles against the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it has become a mountain that has pressed on the head of the Ming Dynasty, and today, this mountain has finally fallen.
"Spread my will, take advantage of the victory to pursue, and drive the Qing captives out of Xuzhou!" Zhu Cihong clenched his fists and gave an order excitedly.
"Yes!"
"Kill!" The 60,000-strong army pursued majestically in the direction of the Qing army's defeat and retreat.
On the way, seeing that Ying Longjun and others were pursuing the Qing army, the Red Lady army also pursued together, and the Qing army protected the seriously wounded Dolgon, and fought and retreated, defeated out of Xuzhou, and retreated to Xuzhou twenty miles away.
Zhu Cihong did not order to continue the pursuit, after all, although the Qing army was defeated in Xuzhou, there were at least 170,000 troops left, and the strength still existed, and the Ming Dynasty had won this war, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not continue to threaten the strength of the Ming Dynasty in five years.
In addition, killing 1,000 enemies and self-inflicting 800, Zhu Cihong also wanted to leave seeds for Ying Longjun, and he really had to fight with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, even if he could keep all the Manchus here, the gains would outweigh the losses.
Although the Ming Dynasty won and successfully resisted the Manchu Qing Dynasty's southward advance, it was also a tragic victory, hundreds of thousands of troops were all disabled, and without a period of recuperation, they had no strength to regain the lost territory in the north.
In this case, why should he be in such a hurry, the Ming Dynasty is only one year in his hands, and he can resist the southward movement of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now he has at least five years, let alone five years, within two years, the Ming Dynasty will definitely destroy the Manchu Qing in the Northern Expedition, so what if Dolgon lives for another year or two.
Since then, the decisive battle of Xuzhou ended with the final victory of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was defeated, the 800,000 army suffered more than 600,000 casualties, only 170,000 remained, and the Ming casualties were less than 400,000 casualties, a tragic victory!
A red lady in a red dress came to Zhu Cihong.
"Your Majesty, the Red Lady is too late to save the car, please ask the emperor to punish the crime!" The red lady knelt down on one knee and said.
"General Hong, please get up quickly, you have a great merit, I want to reward you heavily, how can I cure your crimes!" Zhu Cihong stepped forward to help the red lady up with his own hands, and said with a hearty smile.
Saying that, Zhu Cihong also looked at the red lady carefully and praised him: "The red general is heroic, and he has recruited so many thieves and bandits to return to Henan in just half a year, and this time he has made a miraculous achievement, and he will inevitably be another Zuo Liangyu of the Ming Dynasty in the future, I am fortunate to have two female generals in a row, which is really the favor of God!" ”
Zhu Cihong only glanced at it and staggered his eyes, and secretly swallowed his saliva, once again jealous of Li Yan's good fortune.
The red lady is already beautiful, coupled with the heroic spirit of a female general, the degree of attractiveness is definitely not lower than Chen Yuanyuan, a peerless beauty like Yi Dieyi, at this moment, the uniform on her body is wet by the rain, outlining a wonderful and exquisite curve, which is even more breathtaking, Zhu Cihong does not dare to look at it more, for fear of making a fool of herself.
To say that the combat effectiveness of the Red Lady army is definitely not low, one of the most important reasons is because of the Red Lady's heroic posture and beauty, Zhu Cihong has long found that many soldiers under the Red Lady's command are full of love in the eyes of the Red Lady, as long as the Red Lady gives an order, it is to their lives, they are willing, not to mention that it is to follow the Red Lady to rush to fight together, this is a faint goddess effect, except for Zhu Cihong, no one in Daming can understand.
The whole situation has been decided, the sky is already dark, and the rain in the sky is still falling, but after more than a day and a night, it has become a drizzle, and occasionally it will clear for a quarter of an hour or two, according to this situation, this heavy rain will really clear tomorrow at the latest.
"Spread my will, all the soldiers have a good night's rest tonight, and then clean up the battlefield tomorrow!" Zhu Cihong commanded.
After a day and a night of fighting, the soldiers were already exhausted, and they had been drenched in heavy rain, so if they did not get rid of the cold and rest, they were very likely to fall seriously ill.
The military doctor ordered some ginger soup to ward off the cold and the like to ward off the cold for the soldiers, and Zhu Cihong also drank a bowl.
Twenty miles away from Xuzhou.
The remnants of the 170,000 Qing army retreated to this place, and Dolgon was seriously injured and fell into a coma on the road, and only woke up after sleeping for three hours.
Dolgon's face was pale, but his expression was still a little decadent, the Great Qing Dynasty was defeated, losing more than 600,000 troops, and even Duoduo died, this blow was too great.
"Regent, this time the army marched south, the defeat was not in the regent, the slave just got the news from Henan not long ago, Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, had the opportunity to stop the rescue of Xuzhou in the Red Lady Military Region, otherwise it must be the Ming Dynasty who was defeated!" A white-flag general knelt on one knee in front of Dolgon's couch and gritted his teeth.
Dolgon coughed weakly twice, and sighed regretfully: "Defeat is defeat, no matter what the reason, my Qing Dynasty is defeated after all, maybe this time is the only time I have the Qing Dynasty to destroy the Ming Dynasty and dominate the world, but it is lost in the hands of this king, this king is ashamed of his father Khan, ashamed of his ancestors and ancestors!" ”
Dorgon spoke, his tone full of grief and indignation, and tears of remorse welled up in both eyes.
"But Wu Sangui! This king will not let go of such dog thieves! Dorgon's eyes were filled with anger and murder.
Dolgon has always known that Wu Sangui has taken refuge in the Qing Dynasty on the face, but in fact, he has always been watching in his heart, and he is simply a grass on the wall, but Dolgon has always claimed that he is eloquent and can control Wu Sangui, so that Wu Sangui is willing to be driven by him and be a pawn of the Qing Dynasty. There is no doubt that Dolgon miscalculated, Wu Sangui gave him a hard blow at the most important moment, and this result was that the Qing Dynasty lost the only good opportunity to destroy the Ming Dynasty and dominate the world, Dolgon was extremely remorseful, and he couldn't hide Wu Sangui's murderous intention.
"Ahem-a-poof" anger caused Dolgon's injuries to erupt, causing Dolgon to immediately vomit another mouthful of blood.
"Regent, you have to take care of your health, the Qing Dynasty can't do without the regent!" Several Manchurian generals shouted anxiously.
"It's okay, this king won't fall!"
Yes, he can't fall now, this time he led the army to the south and failed, after returning to Beijing City, there is another big war waiting for him, the reason why he was able to control the Qing Dynasty in the past, and pressed the little Emperor Fulin under him, not only because of his own prestige, but also because of the support of two siblings such as Duoduo and Azig, now he lost the war and lost most of the elite of the Qing Dynasty, plus Duoduo died in battle, and those who opposed him before will inevitably jump out again.
Dolgon smiled coldly, not how greedy he was for power, but those people in the court were all mediocre, and the Qing Dynasty would only decline more and more if it was handed over to them, only he Dolgon could keep the Qing Dynasty in the future, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, this time he was afraid that he would have to use bloody means!
