Besides, behind Zuo Liangyu's 30,000 army is Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army, with Lu Xiangsheng's strategic vision, it is not difficult to see the key to eliminating the Eight Banners Soldiers, this Tianxiong Army should have pressed over from the flanks.

While echoing Zuo Liangyu's 30,000 army, it also cut off the back road of this Eight Banners and completely eliminated the Manchu Eight Banners who dared to step on the land of the Central Plains.

Lu Xiangsheng's army was only forty or fifty miles away from Zuo Liangyu's army, and when he learned that he had found a lone army in front of him, he did not immediately cut off the back road of the Eight Banners.

Summoned the guerrilla generals under his command to plan a perfect strategy to block all the retreats of the Eight Banners and not let anyone go.

Where did this Eight Banners come from, judging from the position of the Eight Banners, they should have come from the sea on a sea boat.

Lu Xiangsheng, who can rank in the top three among all the generals of the Ming Dynasty, is almost the same as Hong Chengchou, the governor of Liaodong, in judging the battle between Zuo Liangyu and the Eight Banners of Zhengbaiqi.

Regardless of Zuo Liangyu's character, in terms of his ability to govern the army and fight, he was a rare deputy governor in the Ming and Manchu Qing dynasties.

It is not a problem to block the Eight Banners of the White Flag, even if you can't eat them completely, no matter how bad it is, you can kill half of the Eight Banners of the White Flag.

Lu Xiangsheng did not cut off the back road of the Eight Banners as Hong Chengchou expected, everyone has the habit of leading the troops by themselves, Hong Chengchou thinks that the feasible strategy, Lu Xiangsheng may not agree.

One of the things Hong Chengchou wanted to do most was to completely eliminate this Eight Banners cavalry and use it to hit the morale of the Eight Banners Army outside Shanhaiguan.

The soldiers of the Zhengbai Banner and the Eight Banners of Changli County are not two Niu Lu, but there are twenty or thirty Niu Lu.

As long as this Eight Banners soldier who stepped on the land of the Central Plains could be eliminated, it would inevitably be a major blow to the morale of the Manchu army.

Lu Xiangsheng will also do his best to eliminate this Eight Banners Army, but the strategy he uses is very different from Hong Chengchou.

Lu Xiangsheng immediately set up a large camp thirty miles away from Zuo Liangyu's camp, recuperated his energy, and restored the physical strength consumed by the Tianxiong Army after a long journey.

Faced with this situation, Hong Chengchou will do whatever it takes to eliminate this white flag and eight banner soldiers as soon as possible.

While Lu Xiangsheng was preparing to use the favorable terrain to intercept the Eight Banners, he tried his best to save the lives of the sergeants of the Tianxiong Army, whose lives were far more important than a big victory.

It is not impossible to immediately go over and cut off the back road of the Eight Banners now, but the casualties of the Tianxiong Army, which is sleepy and lacking in horses, will definitely increase greatly, which Lu Xiangsheng does not want to see.

Just when Hong Chengchou, the governor of Liaodong, was thinking about how to cut off the back road, and Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Huguang, was thinking about how to eliminate all the Eight Banners, he tried to reduce the casualties of the Tianxiong army as much as possible.

What the two governors didn't expect was that Zuo Liangyu's 30,000 elites were actually defeated, and they were defeated so completely.

It was just a wave of charge, and it was chiseled through by the Eight Banners.

The cavalry that attacked Zuo Liangyu's army was actually not the Eight Banners, but the Cossack cavalry led by Turgenev.

This Cossack cavalry, which swept through many knightly legions in Europa such as the Polish hussars, deserves to be hailed as the pinnacle of cavalry by the West, and chiseled this elite army of 30,000 people at the cost of losing dozens of people.

The strong ability of the Cossack cavalry to charge into battle also made Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Huguang, and Hong Chengchou, the governor of Liaodong, guess who came this time.

Dorgon, Prince of Rui.

From guessing who the commanders of these Eight Banners are, the center of the battlefield is actually not in Shanhaiguan, but on the body of Prince Rui Dolgon.

If Dolgon really attacked the hinterland of the Central Plains, the scourge to the Ming Dynasty would be far greater than that of Kong Youde and the others, and if he could kill Dolgon, the impact would be far beyond the so-called King Sanshun.

It will be an unprecedented blow to the Manchu Eight Banners, and Hong Chengchou entrusted the important task of defending Shanhaiguan to Mangui.

Without Hong Chengchou's entrustment, Man Gui would have done his best to defend the last pass of the Ming Dynasty, Shanhaiguan, and after this is the hinterland of the Central Plains.

The defense of Shanhaiguan has always been in charge of Mangui, even if Hong Chengchou came, the sergeants of Shanhaiguan were not convinced by a Hong Chengchou who suddenly appeared.

The border sergeant looked down on the officers and soldiers of the Central Plains, that was the old yellow calendar.

At the moment when Hong Chengchou rushed to the scene, before he could find a favorable terrain, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army was actually defeated.

In order to rush to Shanhaiguan as soon as possible, Lu Xiangsheng marched hurriedly along the way, and the people were sleepy and tired, and he didn't have time to rest, mainly because he didn't expect Zuo Liangyu, who was brave and good at fighting, to be defeated so quickly.

That's why they were defeated by Dolgon's Eight Banners of the White Banner, after all, the Eight Banners of the White Banner had fully recovered their physical strength after last night's recuperation, and the Tianxiong Army, which had no strength to lift a knife, was naturally in common sense.

The Cossack cavalry, having gone through a big battle, recuperated in the rear and did not continue to fight.

This is also the reason why Dolgon insisted that the Cossack cavalry follow him, and the white flag and the Cossack cavalry attacked alternately, echoing each other, so that the peak of the two cavalry could maintain full energy to the greatest extent.

Not long after the Hong soldiers arrived on the battlefield, it was the turn of the well-fed Cossack cavalry to take over the White Banner Eight Banners.

Then there was another wave of charges, and the Hong soldiers that Hong Chengchou had worked so hard to cultivate were once again chiseled through.

The Manchu Eight Banners defeated Zuo Liangyu's 30,000 elites, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army, and Hong Chengchou's Hong soldiers in one day.

After the news of this battle was spread, the other guerrilla generals dared to come and touch this bad head, and they all used various excuses to hide as far as they could.

The army of three was only temporarily routed, and after a short period of convergence and rest, the army of three immediately pursued it.

Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and Zuo Liangyu also knew the specific strength in Dolgon's hands, not three or four thousand, at least six thousand soldiers with white flags and eight banners.

Just when the eyes of all the armies of the Ming Dynasty were on Dolgon, the remaining 14,000 Han and Eight Banners, under the leadership of Ao Bai, kept a certain distance and followed.

Four thousand of them went to the place where Kong Yanxun was, and Kong Yanxun had already obtained the artillery provided by the Donglin Party and transported the artillery to Zhu Shun's Zhuangzi as soon as possible.

There were also 10,000 horses under the leadership of Ao Bai, dragging the army of Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and Zuo Liangyu to prevent them from continuing the pursuit.

In this process, both sides won and lost, and only about 5,000 people remained of the 6,000 white banner soldiers and Cossack cavalry in Dolgon's hands.

But it also completely disabled Zuo Liangyu's 30,000 army, and it was temporarily difficult to gather in a short period of time and continue to catch up.

Hong Chengchou's Hong soldiers and Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army also suffered a lot of damage, and they were dragged by Ao Bai with a desperate fighting style, and they could only let the white flag and eight banner soldiers with one person and two horses kill the capital.
