Chapter 672: Huang Taiji's Northern Expedition! (Woe to the wall?) )

PS: The collection has reached more than 15,600, but why are there so few subscriptions?

After the hard work of Fan Wencheng and others, although there are all kinds of intrigues and intrigues in the Dazheng Palace, Huang Taiji desperately touted that Dolgon is invincible, has many generals, and his minions are brave and good at fighting, the purpose is to say to Dolgon, you go to Daming for a walk! Dolgon, on the other hand, was desperately trying to find an excuse not to go.

Privately, however, the two sides reached a common denominator.

After Abatai got a Manchurian Niulu and four Mongolian Niulu that Huang Taiji gritted his teeth to replenish him, and the Dolgon brothers reluctantly gave him six coated Niulu, our Huang Taiji was finally able to drink and make a strong trip for Abatai, the pioneer of Vaming, and watched him go to the front line of Jinzhou to prepare to enter the customs and plunder.

Before Huang Taiji ordered people to prepare their bags for the northern expedition, bad news came from the direction of Ningyuan! Abatai was ambushed by Wu Sangui near Ningyuan, and thousands of firecrackers and horse teams attacked in turn, losing nearly half of the three or four thousand men and horses of the eleven Niu Lu who had just been replenished.

Poor Rao Baylor is back on horseback once again!

As a result, Dorgon, the prince of the White Banner, was furious. First of all, he severely punished Abatai, who returned from defeat, and wrote to Huang Taiji, demanding that Abatai's title be stripped and his family property confiscated. At the same time, he rectified the soldiers and horses in the banner, and prepared to go to Ningyuan City to find Wu Sangui to avenge his shame.

(Of course, these are just scripted routines.) If it weren't for the Abatai military intelligence revealed intentionally or unintentionally by Zhengbai Banner, Wu Sangui's battle would not have been fought so beautifully. )

Under Ningyuan City, the two sides came and went, and the guns continued. Wu Sangui's fire soldiers lined up to shoot Fuhu Kaishan, who was facing two white flag clothed soldiers, and the fight was not lively.

"Humph! It doesn't matter if you're real or fake. As long as you have a hand in hand with the Ming army, I can rest assured that I will go north! ”

So, Huang Taiji's brigade went out of Shenyang with confidence and boldness, along several big rivers, all the way to watch the spring of the north to Heilongjiang!

Along the way, it is natural that the soldiers and horses must be adjusted. Competent officers are selected from among the outstanding servants of their coats as officers at all levels. Anyway, the main purpose of this trip to the north is to completely turn the tens of thousands of newly surrendered Ming troops into the banner of the Han army, as for the conquest of the Sauron departments, it is just a pretense.

However, from the moment they entered the ground of the Second Songhua River Basin, the rangers who were on guard in front of them continued to encounter the cavalry of the Sauron Army, and small encounters of several or more than a dozen people continued to occur. Where are the opponents of the barbaric and fierce Sauron warriors who came even more than the Eight Banners Manchuria?

Almost every day, outposts have clashed with Sauron's soldiers and lost. The whole army was wiped out, and all the armor, weapons, horses, and clothing were taken away, leaving only a few tattered and incomplete headless corpses gnawed by wild beasts on the cold, damp wasteland.

Although a lot of fear was created among the Han army, which made the former Ming army who had just shaved their hair and surrendered more and more terrifying, in the eyes of Huang Taiji and other high-level Qing officials, this kind of terror was also one of the gains of this trip.

Let the Han Army Banner feel terrified of the Sauron soldiers. It is also the only way to suppress the large number of Han military banners. Before and after the Qing soldiers entered the customs, the combat effectiveness was the strongest in those years. The Qing army fought against various armed forces in various places, and always arranged the order of attack according to the distance and proximity. The first wave of pioneers fought against the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, the second wave drove the Mongolian tribal soldiers to fight, the third wave drove the Northeast tribesmen to fight, and the fourth wave drove the Mongolian Eight Banners to fight. In the end, the army of the Eight Banners of Manchuria went into battle.

Later, there were too many Han military banners. The pits and valleys were filled by the surrendered Ming army from all over the country, so it was not the Han army flag that rushed to the forefront, but the green battalion. When the Eight Banners quickly became corrupt and degenerate after entering the customs, the Green Battalion became the main force of the Qing army. Rushed to kill on the battlefield fighting with Wu Sangui, Galdan and others. However, when the green battalion was also decayed and unable to fight, Fukangan, who had always been a gossip world, sacrificed another unit, Xiang Yong, to dig the first shovel soil for the fall of the Qing Empire.

However, until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the combat effectiveness of the Sauron soldiers was extremely strong. Catching savages in the deep mountains and dense forests of Heilongjiang as cannon fodder is the second goal of Huang Taiji's northern expedition.

Turai, a young leader of the Guerjia family who was in charge of the front army for Huang Taiji, led dozens of officers to gallop to Huang Taiji's big tent not far away, dismounted, tidied up his clothes and armor for a while, and walked respectfully to the big tent, waiting for Wu Bai to pay homage to Huang Taiji.

"Come in!"

With a summons, dozens of officers with two yellow flags rushed in, and they all saluted in front of Huang Taiji.

"Master Qiqi, the minions of the former enemy sentinel rehearsal, in the past few days, I have encountered more and more Sauron rebels, there are several times more men and horses than in the previous days, the armor and weapons are becoming more and more elite, and occasionally people use firearms. I think it's the main force of Bomu Bogol's house! ”

With a hint of irrepressible joy, Turai loudly told Huang Taiji on the throne about the military situation heard by the various sentinels.

Huang Taiji was also happy. Historically, the regular army fought against the irregular army, and was not afraid of a head-on confrontation between the enemy army, but was afraid that it would not be able to find the main force of the guerrillas, but it was constantly being harassed by the guerrillas, and constantly being attacked by the guerrillas on the increasingly extended supply lines.

Napoleon, who swept across Europe, was able to conquer Europe in a few hours in the Battle of Austerlitz, but Kutuzov used similar tactics to drag down his hundreds of thousands of troops in the Russian wasteland. After the Battle of Borodino, Kutuzov, the one-eyed dragon, avoided a head-on confrontation between the main Russian army and the French army, but used the vast Russian land to continuously extend the transportation and supply lines of the French army, so that various militia guerrillas could consume a large number of flanks and rear to contain the French army.

There is also an example that has been widely criticized by countless fruit fans, and the unkind author will not mention it for fear of being bricked. However, those who have always thought that the military operations from 1931 to 1945 were carried out by the regular army of the National Revolutionary Army as the main force, you can look at the Japanese sources and look at the number of troops they recorded in the battles and battles, and you will find a very interesting situation. The number of troops invested in those famous battles may be equal to, or even inferior, to the number of troops that have been carried out for many years in the sweeping and clearing activities in North China, East China, and Central China. But. The result! Needless to say. The Allied observers couldn't stand it anymore.

As the commander of the Qing army, who had just won the battle in which hundreds of thousands of troops were invested by both sides, Huang Taiji's ability to control and command his army was naturally far better than that of Bomu Bogol. Hearing that Turai and others told him about the military situation and told Bomu Bogol to gather more than 20,000 men and horses under his command in one place and prepare to start a battle with him, how could this not make Huang Taiji and the officers among the Liao thieves excited and overjoyed?

"There are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Ming Kingdom, and the Art of War Department is very strict. The essence of the armor and staff is far superior to that of this group of savages, and they are not the opponents of our Qing soldiers and horses, how can these savages come up to find death by themselves? ”

"Exactly! The emperor brought us out with two yellow flags, but it turned out to be just a hunt! ”

"Master, don't worry, we can just win this battle! Please decree that the minions are willing to be the head enemy, and directly take the head of Bomu Bogol to sacrifice! ”

The subordinate generals were eager to try, and Huang Taiji, as the commander, was naturally very pleased. "But don't be careless. If Bomu Bogol is attacking with men and horses on the scale of Niulu. You must fight the rabbit with a lion and deal with it with all your might. The military discipline of this generation is not as good as my Qing soldiers, but the courage of the soldiers is far better than ours! ”

Huang Taiji's words are tantamount to a bucket of ice water, which has lowered the heat of the minds of the two yellow flag generals very well. Oh, yes! Although the other party said that it was a group of rabble, when it came to personal fighting skills, the bows, arrows, knives and sticks on horseback seemed to be slightly better than the white-armored soldiers and Bayala soldiers of the Eight Banners Manchuria. If the other side does not press the whole army at the same time. Let Bomu Bogol command and dispatch be ineffective for a while, but keep attacking with a force on the scale of Niu Lu. Then, the lethality brought to the soldiers and horses of the Qing State is extremely great.

"The minions are careless! The emperor is wise! ”……

Good spirits do not work badly. Huang Taiji's prophecy is a fight with Brazil's famous crow's beak. From the next day, when the Qing army was advancing cautiously, the Sauron soldiers on the opposite side would take hundreds of people as a team from time to time, and rush out of the barren grass and woods like wolves at a glance, and bite the Qing army's marching team hard. Then he quickly collected the loot and walked away with a whistle.

Sometimes, even several teams of men and horses rushed out from different positions at the same time to attack and harass the Qing army brigade that stretched for dozens of miles.

What annoyed Huang Taiji even more was that with the continuous deepening of the Qing Dynasty's soldiers and horses. It seems that the Sauron soldiers on the opposite side have become a little timid, and they are intimidated by the military might of the Qing Dynasty's soldiers and horses, and they are gradually a little vulnerable. Often when the resistance of the Qing soldiers and horses was more fierce, or launched a counterattack, they fled immediately.

What was left for Huang Taiji was the devastation of the land and the increasing number of wounded soldiers.

"Your Majesty, this won't work, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that we will be dragged down and dragged to death by this group of Sauron savages!" Wu Bai spoke to Huang Taiji with some concern in private.

Over the years, the Qing soldiers have always paid attention to the construction of heavy armor, and the elite soldiers are often wearing heavy armor, although they are invincible against the Mongolian tribes and the Ming soldiers, but they are very cumbersome to deal with the light cavalry with almost no armor on the Sauron tribes. I completely forgot that I was like this back then, and I didn't know how to deal with it in the face of the roar of Sauron's soldiers.

"In the humble opinion of the minions, it is better to abandon the baggage, and the whole army is only wearing light armor, rushing overnight, and going straight to the heart of Sauron's various tribes, which can reverse the current passive situation."

On horseback, he held a telescope and looked into the distance, trying to make a light and breezy demeanor, but in his heart, Huang Taiji was no less than pouring the sea and turning the river.

These days, he also found that his army was being constrained in the battle against the Saurons, and he suffered a lot of losses. For a while, it was difficult to find a way to crack it, and what Wu Bai, the leader of the Kabush soldiers, said, just swept away what he was worried about.

"Your Majesty, Rao Yu Baylor was defeated from Guannei that day, doesn't it mean that his method of dealing with Young Uncle Li of the Nanyue Army is to use his actions to control the enemy, which makes the eldest son of the Li family exhausted. If it weren't for the fact that the Li family spent a lot of money to hire thieves to deal with Rao Yu Baylor, I am afraid that the outcome would not be known. ”

Like a light in the dark night, Huang Taiji suddenly realized! At present, his army is the original Li Huayu's headquarters, and the soldiers and horses of the Sauron people are Rao Yu Bel Abatai. It's just that the offense and defense are changing shape now!

"That's right! Right, right! At the beginning, Rao Yu Baylor also said that those thieves could run better than his subordinates, endure hunger and cold, and be more able to fight! ”

Turai was also excitedly waving the whip in his hand and praising Wu Bai's suggestion.

Destroy these trooper troopers. You have to be able to run better than them, and you can endure all kinds of suffering in the mountains and forests before it can be done! Otherwise, the eight-pound tanuki will also be exhausted to death by a four-tael mouse!

"It's good! Beniel and other words! From tomorrow onwards, the whole army will camp in place. Leave the heavy supplies in place, and the banners are lightly armed, and go north with me to find the bad luck of the Sauronians! ”

Thinking of Abatai, Huang Taiji was angry in his heart. This brave and unscrupulous horseman, who has been defeated several times, will be a joke for me in the long run! After my triumph, I will punish him well and send him to see Mang Gurtai and Amin!

But. I thought about it for a while, but I let go of this thought. This man's weakness is courage and indiscretion, but because he is in the middle of two white flags, his weakness has also become an advantage. No matter how much you lose soldiers and horses, what is consumed is still the strength of the two white flags, isn't this exactly the same as my purpose of weakening the strength of the two white flags?

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji urged the war horse under his crotch, which was from Nanzhong. The white horse, which had a great food-eating bloodline, immediately galloped into the air on all four hooves, and galloped on the wasteland that had sprouted tender green grass buds. The slightly chilly cold wind blowing in his face made Huang Taiji feel very comfortable.

But. A small group of centaurs galloped in the distance, but his heart sank suddenly! "Could it be that something happened to the minions somewhere?"

However, it is a secret concert from Shengjing City, which is jointly performed by Prince Dai Shan, the brother of Li, who is currently presiding over the restoration and reconstruction of various towns and providing relief to the victims in Liaoyang City, and Chen Banda, who is presiding over the restoration of the factory and mine in Liaoyang. Huang Taiji's expectations were not bad, it was indeed that there was chaos everywhere in southern Liaoning.

Nearly 10,000 Ming army captives, who were originally sent to various mines and workshops in southern Liaoning to serve as coolies, secretly conspired in tandem, and took advantage of the main forces of Dolgon's two white flags to go to the direction of Jinzhou. In the direction of Shengjing, only Haoge and Azig and others were in charge, and the troops were relatively empty, and when the guards were not very tight, they actually rioted!

Thousands of former Ming soldiers, armed with shovels, pickaxes and hammers. Swarm out of the mines, kill the guards, seize weapons, and take over the mines. After a full meal of the food in the pit, the battalion was formed, the banner was erected, and the road was ready to escape!

When the minions and others heard about this, they immediately mobilized the soldiers and horses of the garrison to quell the rebellion. Relying on the emperor's heavenly prestige and relying on my Qing Hongfu, I was lucky enough to quell this chaos, and hundreds of people who were the first to make a rebellion were killed. The rest were thrown into the pit to be used as hard labor, and they were not allowed to leave the cave for the rest of their lives. However, there were still more than 2,000 people who escaped from the net, burned all the way, and fled to Haijiao along the old road of Wu Sangui and Shi Lang that day. The minions and others urged the troops to chase and kill, but the horses were weak in the spring and could not bear to gallop long distances. This generation ran into the mountains and forests again. It was finally slipped through the net. There were Ningyuan military ships on the seashore to respond, and the minions did not dare to chase after them in depth. Please ask the emperor to punish the crime! ”

"In this battle, although our Qing Dynasty put down this chaos, it lost nearly 4,000 hard labor, two factories were burned, and several mines were burned. More than 7,000 houses were destroyed, and several cities were burned by the rebels. ”

Dai Shan's mouth is guilty, but between the lines, he is playing for himself, and Huang Taiji's nose is almost crooked. The best part is this paragraph.

"The rebels rushed to the seaside, and there happened to be twenty sea ships of Ning Yuanming's soldiers and horses here, so they roared and contacted, all of them got on the boat, and sailed away."

Listen up! Listen up! How could it be so coincidental that Ning Yuan's sailors were passing by, and they happened to be at the place where this group of rebel and rioting captives fled? If there was no rebellion of this group of coolies, would Wu Sangui's gang have to burn Liaoyang again? Soldiers are coming to Shengjing?

However, after this incident came out, the performance of the princes who stayed in Shengjing was intriguing.

Prince Azig, the British prince who was in charge of the Red Banner Manchuria, immediately jumped out and demanded that the two white flag armies facing Wu Sangui on the Jinzhou front line at this time be transferred back to defense. The reason seems to be very sufficient, above board: "Rather than putting tens of thousands of troops in a useless place, and letting the soldiers and horses of the Ming State wantonly enter the hinterland of my Qing Dynasty and burn them, it is better to transfer the soldiers and horses of Prince Rui and Prince Yu back to Shengjing for defense!" ”

Joke! With Azig's brain, how could he say something so methodical, obviously harboring evil intentions, and making people unable to say anything? It's clear that someone is pointing him behind his back! Maybe it was Dolgon and the three brothers who conspired together!

Hum! Taking advantage of the fact that my army was not in Shengjing, and seeing that Shengjing City was empty, you played this set of ghost tricks, planning to drive into Shengjing with a large number of people, or support the new monarch to ascend the throne, like Tang Suzong, to respect me as the emperor, or to abolish me, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty?

However, taking advantage of the time difference to catch the opponent off guard, Huang Taiji is also a good player. Thinking of the tricks he played when his father Khan died, he took advantage of the opportunity when several brothers were not in front of him, Huang Taiji shuddered.

"If the three brothers also take this opportunity to give me a hand, not only will their position be lost, but I am afraid that this good head of mine will also be used by them to pay tribute to their mother!"

Thinking of this, the corners of Huang Taiji's forehead were full of cold sweat.

"Pass the order! Tomorrow, the whole army will be dispatched on light cavalry to find the decisive battle of Bomu Bogol! Defeated this Heilongjiang big-header, let's go back to Shengjing immediately! (To be continued......)
