387 Defeated repeatedly

I saw that the Han man had a flattering smile on his face, knelt there and saluted: "The last general, Chai Shihua, has seen His Royal Highness Prince Zheng of the Great Qing Dynasty and His Royal Highness the King of the Great Qing Dynasty!" ”

Prince Zheng is naturally Ji'er Harang, and the king of Dorowuying is Aixin Jueluo Azig, who has not been named a prince, but is just a county king. In the original history, it was not until 1644, that is, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, or the first year of Shunzhi, that he was named Prince Heshuoying.

With a wave of his hand, Ji'er Harang made Chai Shihua stand up, and then asked with a kind face: "You know the situation in the customs best, but what can you do?" ”

He has always been cautious, and only the emperor Taiji is the first to look forward. However, in terms of dealing with people, it is a bit similar to Huang Taiji, which is very urban, and generally does not like to be colorful. Unlike Azig, who was standing beside him, his face was full of disgust, and he could see what he thought of Chai Shihua.

Hearing Zilharang's question, Chai Shihua only looked at him, and hurriedly replied: "If the last general knew that His Highness was going to lead the army over, he would definitely contact him a long time ago, in that way, if he was taken by surprise, he would definitely be able to catch the Ming army by surprise, and if he didn't do it, he would be able to cripple the Qin soldiers......

"If you have something to say, let it go!" When Azig on the side heard this, he immediately interjected impatiently, "If you don't have it, what is the use of birds, just say it now!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" When Chai Shihua heard this, he turned his head to look at Azig and nodded again and again, not daring to disobey. As he spoke, he still turned his head to look at Zilharang: "Now, Guan Ning Mingjun knows that His Highness's army is stationed in this Naturalization City, so he will be on guard, so it is not very easy to fight." ”

Speaking of this, he hurriedly glanced at Azig, afraid that he would train himself again, and immediately continued: "But it doesn't matter much, the last general will lead the troops to fight the Ming army first, just like before, pretending that he can't defeat the Ming army and retreat......"

"Do you still need to pretend?" When Azig heard this, he couldn't help but interject again, and said with a look of disgust, "I can't keep the position of my own general army, and I borrow troops everywhere, but I have lost battles and defeats, and I am just an incompetent person!" ”

Jianyu is famous for his martial arts, and he is based on martial arts, and of course he looks down on the generals who are often defeated. Azig is not a very city person, or rather, he is a brainless person, and he is disgusted with Chai Shihua, so he said it casually.

In the original history, Azig was brainless, and not only asked Dolgon to make him his uncle, but of course Dolgon refused. So, as soon as Dorgon died, he wanted to learn from Dorgon and was imprisoned until death.

But no matter what, he has a hand in the war, at least until now, he has won many battles, and the Dongjiang army on Phi Island was destroyed by the Jianyu led by him. Therefore, he is qualified enough to despise Chai Shihua.

Chai Shihua didn't expect Azig to not give him any face at all, even if he was thick-skinned, he was blushing and white for a while by Azig. Seeing this, Zilharang waved his hand at Azig and didn't let Azig say any more, otherwise, his poor self-esteem would have been thrown to the ground and trampled on by Azig.

After stabilizing his mind a little, Chai Shihua continued to say to Zilharang: "In advance, the last general will lead the army and will kill all the people along the way. Then, His Royal Highness led the army to ambush and was not afraid of leaking the news, and when the last general came over with the Ming army, the ambush soldiers were killed, and the Ming army would definitely not be able to stop the Qing army. ”

"Hehe, that's all I think? The king thought it was a big deal! That's just it! When Azig heard this, he couldn't help but sneer and said, "The Ming Kingdom can beat you and lose a series of battles, just what you think, they won't know, will they not be wary of my Qing army?" ”

When Chai Shihua heard this, his face suddenly became ugly again. Although he felt that the Ming army might not be on guard, he couldn't refute Azig's words, what if the Ming army was on guard? He didn't dare to make a military order!

After Azig finished speaking, he glanced at him with disdain, and then turned to Zilharang and said: "In this way, I will use our banner to lead some men and horses, plus the Mongolian army to pretend to be my Qing army, to attack Datong of the Ming Kingdom and attract the attention of the Ming army." Then, you lead me to the main force of the Qing Dynasty quietly, and then ambush the Ming army according to this stupid method, so that the Ming army should be fooled. ”

I have to say that Azig has two brushes when he fights.

Hearing this, Zilharang nodded and said, "Yes, this method is good!" This king asked the Urad Department to also harass the Yansui area of the Ming State, so that the entry of the general soldiers of Chai was no longer eye-catching, and the possibility of the Ming army being fooled was even higher. ”

There is one thing he actually didn't say, the Qing Dynasty led the Mongolian tribes to attack the Ming border again, even if it was just harassment, under normal circumstances, the Ming army would definitely be defense-oriented and would not attack rashly. However, Chai Shihua, this waste, as Azig said, has been defeated repeatedly, and it is estimated that his opponent, that is, his former deputy, has long despised him from the bones, and he will definitely not care, and it is very likely that he will pursue Chai Shihua.

In fact, Chai Shihua is not really so unbearable. After he defected from the Ming Dynasty, his own cronies' army was wiped out. It was only by going to the west and the grasslands to borrow troops that people and horses came to attack the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, it is obvious that, first, he will not be comfortable with the command of borrowed soldiers and horses. Second, those borrowed soldiers and horses will definitely not sell their strength to help him fight, but will come to the customs to reap benefits. Once someone dies, or a tough battle is fought, it's no wonder that these borrowed soldiers don't run away!

This Chai Shihua does not have the ability of the famous generals of the ancients, and he can't integrate the borrowed soldiers and horses at all, and he really collects them for his own use, so he can only lose consecutive battles.

At this time, a strategy led by Chai Shihua was formed after being perfected by Azig and Zilharang.

Subsequently, Chai Shihua immediately rushed back to the west, and Zierharang also began to send out military orders, and immediately began to dispatch troops.

At this time, the grassland tribes were naturally subordinated to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and when the military order of Zilharang arrived, of course, they listened. Although there are examples of the Tumut tribe being wiped out by the Ming army, this is only an example. For most of the Mongolian tribes, they felt that the Tumut tribe had in their brains, and they were all cavalry, and they could all be destroyed by the Ming Kingdom. It's not how powerful the Ming Kingdom is, it's that the Tumut Department made a fool of how stupid it was, so this situation will occur.

In addition, the battle situation in Liaodong has not yet reached the steppe, and in the eyes of these Mongolian tribes, the Manchu army is still invincible. They are against the Ming army, that is the existence of crushing. Even went to Guannei, burning, killing and looting under the nose of the Ming Emperor, but the Ming army had no way at all.

Under such circumstances, these Mongol tribes naturally hugged the thighs of the Manchus and obeyed the dispatch of the Manchu army.

What they didn't know was that at this time, in the steppes of eastern Mongolia, there were Manchu messengers galloping.

The Horqin grassland can be said to be very close to Liaodong, and it is from the Shengjing side to the pass. Therefore, the Manchu messengers were the first to arrive.

When the patriarch of the Horqin tribe, Zhai Sambu He, heard the news, he immediately greeted the messenger. Although his sister and two daughters were married to Huang Taiji, they remained respectful in etiquette.

At this time, when he saw the Qing envoy coming so eagerly, he guessed that there must be something important. Although he couldn't think of anything important, it didn't dampen his curiosity.

After listening to the messenger's reading of Huang Taiji's holy decree, Bu He couldn't help but be very surprised, a little incredulous, and subconsciously confirmed: "What? The Emperor of the Ming State led an army to attack the hinterland of Liaodong? This...... Is this possible? ”

"What's impossible!" When the messenger heard this, he immediately replied, "The emperor of the Ming Kingdom has only won a battle, and he is arrogant and boundless, thinking that the Qing Dynasty is not the opponent of the Ming Kingdom, and he wants to attack the hinterland of Liaodong without his own strength, what is so strange?" Now that the emperor is leading the army back to Liaodong, Baylor must not be lazy here, and immediately cooperate with the action according to the will, and be sure to leave the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom in Liaodong! ”

When Buhe heard this, he hurriedly agreed. Subsequently, he inquired about the details of the war in Liaodong.

This time, Huang Taiji led an army to attack Korea and did not inform the tribes of the steppe, so Buhe did not know about it. Under his intentional questioning, he roughly understood the war situation in Liaodong and Korea.

It's okay that Buhe didn't know the details, but when he asked for the details, he was immediately surprised. He didn't expect that Daqing would have such a difficult day.

When did Mingguo become so powerful? Isn't the previous wind comment of the Ming Emperor a mediocre and incompetent lord? How could he personally lead the troops, and he actually wiped out the entire army of Prince Rui, which is more than 10,000 Qing troops!

Thinking like this, on the surface, the Horqin people shouted that the horses were neighing, and they immediately responded to Huang Taiji's will and dispatched troops. However, in fact, he secretly called his son Wu Keshan and told him to take it easy when he went to Guannei, and not to fight to the death with the Ming army.

The so-called people are not destroyed for themselves, although Buhe married his sister and two daughters to Huang Taiji. But in his heart, of course, the Horqin clan is still in the most important position.

In fact, in the past, the Horqin tribe and the Jianzhou Jurchens also had a feud, and the two sides fought many times, but in the end, the Horqin tribe was taught a lesson by the wild boar skin and finally had to surrender. In order to show his loyalty, Buhe sold his sister-in-law, and felt that this was not enough, so he sold his youngest daughter again, all to Huang Taiji.

Later, Huang Taiji became the Great Khan of Dajin, and showed a wise and martial side, Dajin became more and more prosperous in his hands, and learned from his daughter and sister-in-law that Huang Taiji had the ambition to be the real emperor, Bu He simply married his favorite eldest daughter to Huang Taiji. At this time, he almost married himself to Huang Taiji to hug Huang Taiji's thighs.

From this incident, it can be seen that the reason why all the Mongolian tribes on the steppe submitted to the Manchus was because the Manchus became more and more powerful, which made them feel that if they followed the Manchus, at least they would not be beaten, and sometimes they could take advantage of it. For example, every time the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, in fact, these Mongolian tribes followed. In the original history, they followed behind the Manchu army, and they also burned, killed and plundered in the Daming Pass.

Wu Keshan will take over his father's position in the future and become the patriarch of the Horqin clan. Naturally, the Horqin clan is also the most important, even if Buhe doesn't say it, after he knows the situation in Liaodong, he will be cautious.

As a result, the Korqin army did not act as hard as it did in front of the messenger.

Not only the Horqin tribe, but also the tribes in the eastern Mongolian steppe, who received the will of Huang Taiji to send it urgently, all understood the situation in Liaodong, and at the same time, they were taken aback, and at the same time, they were also like the Horqin tribe, just thunder and no rain, and they actively worked the surface, actually watched the food and ate, and did what they could.

However, before the soldiers and horses of the Mongolian tribes could enter the customs, Huang Taiji's urgent messenger came again. They were told that the Qing Emperor had returned to Liaodong, and that the Ming Emperor had fled after hearing the news and had fled back to Guannei.

In this case, the matter was stopped.

However, the war in Liaodong slowly spread in the eastern Mongolian steppe.

Although they believed that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom would definitely flee after he knew that the Qing Emperor would lead his troops back. However, they were still very surprised by the previous war. The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom was able to destroy more than 10,000 Qing troops under Dolgon's command in one battle, which was really surprising to them.

They have been dealing with Jianyu for a long time, and naturally know that Dolgon is not an incompetent person, and faintly, he is the most shrewd prince of the Qing Dynasty below Huang Taiji. I don't know how he made a mistake, the horse stumbled and lost such a big battle?

While discussing this matter, another matter about the Ming Emperor was also brought up again, that is, the Hetao Tumut Department was destroyed by the Ming Emperor's army.

When they heard about this in the past, they also thought that it was the Tumut tribe itself that caused the annihilation of the whole army, just like the western Mongolian tribes. But now, with the more than 10,000 horses of Dolgon, they were astonished.

It's reasonable to be stupid once, but it's okay to be stupid twice, how is this possible? It's impossible, when the Tumut Department and Dolgon encounter the Ming Emperor's army, they will automatically be stupid, right?

Then the only explanation is that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is not so incompetent as the legend says! Instead, there were traitorous ministers in the Ming court, so in the past, the Ming Emperor was a little incompetent. Now he does not believe in his courtiers, and he himself leads the army into battle, and he sees how powerful he is.

As soon as this conclusion was reached, these eastern Mongolian tribes couldn't help but feel a faint pain in their eggs. You must know that since the founding of the Ming Kingdom, it has been fighting with the grassland tribes, and nearly three hundred years have passed, and the Ming Kingdom has been suppressing the grassland tribes. If the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom was really a master who could fight, then their life would definitely be sad in the future.

Thinking like this, they had no other way but to secretly pray to the Immortal Heaven, and the Ming Kingdom was just returning to the light!

At the same time, Wu Sangui, who was ordered to return to Liaodong, walked along the Great Wall Pass, and saw that he had arrived at Datong.
