Chapter 608: The Great Rout (3)

"Kill only one of Mako!"

"Only kill Marco!"

"Those who descend will not die!"

"Those who descend will not die!"

"Capture Hong Chengchou alive!"

"Capture Hong Chengchou alive!"

"There is a person who has tied up Hong Chengchou to donate, and he has been named Ang Bang Zhangjing!"

"Capture Hong Chengchou alive, and the emperor will reward him with a future!"

The stiff Chinese was galloped back and forth across the wasteland by the heavy armored cavalry of the Manchurian Eight Banners, shouting loudly, and the sound of the wind and the constant shouting and killing cries spread throughout the battlefield.

Wang Tingchen, the former commander of the guard, died. Bai Guangen, the chief soldier of Jizhen, collapsed. Miyun General Soldier Tang Tong fled. Hong Chengchou was left with only the Shanhaiguan General Soldier Ma Ke, and the chief soldier Cao Bianjiao Erzhen and his own supervising Chinese army. As for the troops of Liu Zhaoji, the general soldier of Liaodong, in the eyes of Inspector Hong, they are a group of soy sauce players.

The Qing army spread all over the mountains, and a layer of cavalry and a layer of infantry rushed in, rushing back and forth. Like the waves of the sea, it constantly washes the collapsed sand bank of the Ming army, and every wave washes away, taking away a lot of soldiers.

"Array! Back to the city to borrow one! ”

Although there was chaos in front of him, and a big defeat was inevitable, in the eyes of Hong Chengchou, who had been in the army for a long time, he had not yet reached the point of exhaustion. There are still 20,000 or 30,000 horses around him, all of whom have always been able to fight and fight. Especially among his own supervising army, there are also three 32-pounder cannons that were given by the emperor as Dingliao General, Pingliao General, and Zhenliao General.

At the moment, with the command of Inspector Hong, the mountain navy is on the left flank, Cao Bianjiao's department is on the right flank, and the Chinese army is in the center to defend the front. Pushing the three Dingliao generals to the front line, they fired a few cannons at the Qing army rushing in the distance, driving the Qing army farther away. In this way, we can buy some time and space for the deployment of the army.

The whole army saw it very clearly. can only rely on the city wall, first fight outside the city, repel Huang Taiji's attack, and then find a way to retreat to the city. Otherwise, everyone is a death.

The power that bursts out between life and death is enormous. Although there is not enough training on weekdays, but. At this juncture, the men and horses of the two towns were advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, and under the orders of officers at all levels, they quickly completed the formation.

Relying on Quang Ninh City, a huge semi-circular formation gradually formed. This formation is the most conducive to defense.

"Want to compete with my soldiers outside the city?"

On the top of the mountain, Huang Taiji saw the dynamics of Hong Chengchou's remnants clearly, and saw that a huge semicircular defensive posture was about to appear, and the Ming soldiers kept putting all kinds of chariots. Pushed out of the marching ranks, pulled out of the overturned ravines, and lined up one by one in front of the battle, becoming the hard shell of their own defensive positions.

"Spread the decree, all the banners and princes, open the mouth, let those who go to the south let them escape, and those who intend to go north. Force these Nikans to rush into Hong Chengchou's big array! Remember, don't worry about those Ming troops running away. They can't run! As long as I catch Hong Chengchou, we will win this battle! ”

The trumpets sounded, flags waved on the hills, and 100 Kabush soldiers rode down from the hills to deliver messages to the battlefields. Let the banner lords and princes who were in high spirits capture the captives and plunder the heavy goods quickly open their mouths, so that the Ming troops surrounded in the middle can see a glimmer of hope of escape, so that they give up the idea of resistance and just run wildly.

As the small encirclement was consciously opened, the original was still holding a desperate one. The various units of the Ming army, which desperately wanted to make two money, under the leadership of their respective commanders, with Jiading as the lead, rushed out of the gap one after another, throwing flags, vehicles, artillery, and baggage along the way, and even those infantry were abandoned far behind by the cavalry and Jiading with horses.

This is like a hunting activity that is very pleasant for the thieves in Liaodong.

The Ming troops who broke through the siege, or rushed through the corridors of western Liaoning, were the targets of the hunt. The Liao thieves intercepted layer by layer, and every Liao thief general who stayed in place was like a sharp knife, cutting off a piece of fat from the Ming army brigade piecemeal, and then letting them go and handing it over to the next blocker.

Huang Taiji knew very well that at this time, although the Ming army was defeated and survived, but after all, it was a hundred-legged insect that died but did not stiffen, if it was desperately to prevent them from escaping, even if it was a victory, it would inevitably cause large casualties to the Liao thieves. It's better to intercept layer by layer, and turn the original idea of catching them all into a division to wipe out. In this way, the loss of troops will be much smaller, not to mention, you can also put the main forces into the battle against Hong Chengchou!

Originally, Liu Zhaoji, the general soldier of Liaodong who was in the forefront of the supervising Chinese army and opened the way for the supervising Chinese army, was in an awkward position at this time.

The Jizhen, Qiantunwei, and Miyun towns in front of them were all killed, fled or scattered, and his troops were exposed to the blows of the Liao thieves. Nearly 10,000 horses and horses were attacked by more than 1,000 Liaodong anti-thief heavy armored cavalry, and they also became agitated, and they were about to lose control!

"Look, Dashuai!"

The leader of Liu Zhaoji's family was sharp-eyed, pointed to the dense military flags in the distance and exclaimed to him.

In the distance, the banners of Manchurian yellow, yellow, blue, and blue flags were rushing towards his military formation, and under the banners, hundreds of cavalrymen bowed their bodies, their legs clamped their horses' bellies, and they just rode their horses and rushed towards his military formation.

Behind the cavalry team, there were constantly passionate war drums, countless shouts, dense shield carts, and countless flags behind, the infantry of the Han army and the Manchurian banners, and the firecrackers, mixed with countless artillery, followed by the cavalry's shock formation.

"Damn! This group of Tartars ate Tang Tong, Bai Guangen and Wang Tingchen were still unwilling, and they came to target Lao Tzu again! ”

cursed in his mouth, but Liu Zhaoji did not dare to slack off at all, thinking that the number of soldiers and horses under his command, whether it was in terms of numbers, equipment, combat effectiveness, or even the number of cavalry, the number of artillery was far inferior to the above three. The best thing to do right now is-

"U-turn! Let's go and meet the Overseer! Fight the Tartars together! ”

In the midst of the smoke and dust, the Liao thief cavalry of the brigade outflanked from the east and west, and Liu Zhaoji's face sank like water. Snorted coldly. Although his cavalry did not have Makodo, there were thousands of them, and he did not pay attention to the two cavalry forces of the east and west roads, which numbered around a thousand people, and immediately ordered two generals. Fifteen hundred cavalry from each leader went into battle, and it was necessary to keep the two wings safe.

In the blink of an eye, the cavalry of the Ming and Qing armies on the east and west roads were strangled in one place. The sound of weapons colliding, the roar of war horses, and the screams of soldiers after being injured and falling from their horses reached Liu Zhaoji's ears, but he couldn't care much about it. His nearly 10,000 horses. Under the protection of the east and west wings, it began to make a rapid U-turn and turn northward, preparing to join Hong Chengchou's headquarters.

However, with hundreds of chariots and baggage wagons in the brigade, where is it so easy to turn around? While Liu Zhaoji's soldiers in Liaodong Town were desperately whipping the mules, horses, and camels to make them gratefully turn the vehicle, the infantry of the Liaodong anti-thieves was also killed two miles away.

The earth shook like a mountain, bursts of earth-shattering thunderous cannon sound resounded through the sky, and thick white gunpowder smoke rose up. Heavy artillery shells whistled.

Under the fierce bombardment of at least 15 artillery groups composed of more than eight pound guns, the chariots and baggage wagons in the marching army column in Liaodong Town were torn apart, and the wheels and carriages of the chariots were quickly smashed through under the bombardment of the shells, and sharp fragments flew everywhere in the air, and several small cannons were even stirred into the air by the huge impact force. Then quickly fall and put the cold weapons on the ground to the hands. Smashed into a blur of flesh and blood.

With a loud bang, a large iron ball weighing more than ten catties happened to smash on a chariot, and with a "boom", the shutter and the hard car material exploded, and the iron ball was wrapped in countless spikes and broken branches. The Ming soldiers who swept this area, at least a dozen people were bleeding profusely, rolling on the ground and howling.

Another heavy cannon fell into the infantry position behind the chariot, and the large iron ball shot over, at least a platoon of more than twenty people. Seeing this scene, the Ming troops of the car battalion and the infantry battalion screamed loudly, chaotic, each shouted, accelerated their pace, and rushed towards the huge formation that had erected the superintendent in the distance!

Behind them, the cavalry and infantry of the Liao thieves cooperated very skillfully, and the firecrackers in the infantry stepped forward to bombard the running Ming army with firearms, beating the Ming army, which was already very panicked. After that, the cavalry rushed forward and slashed at the Ming army's rearguard and bee waist, shattering the intentions of the generals at all levels to restore the structure and command.

Then, another round of shells fell on the retreating Ming troops.

In this way, the cannonballs, the firearms, the cavalry, the connection was orderly. In the face of such rounds of blows, the people and horses of Liaodong Town turned into bees that had been burned into the hive, buzzing and chirping, and went straight to Hong Chengchou's banner!

Such a scene, Ma Shaoyu, who was forcibly framed to watch the battle, was all in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel sad and cry loudly.

"But I don't want to work hard, but I have become a ghost who brings disaster to the country! The slave chief's treacherous plan was actually succeeded by me! Although Ma Shaoyu never took the loss of money and food of the soldiers seriously in his heart, he also knew that such a fiasco was something that the imperial court could not accept no matter what.

If the court learned of such a situation, it was he, the envoy of peace, who did it, I am afraid that the punishment of the nine clans will be light!

The old Zhu family has never been soft on dealing with their political enemies and characters who have caused heavy losses to themselves, even to the point of perversion. From Chen Youliang's subordinate generals who fought several times with Zhu Chongba's classmates, to Qi Tai Huang Zicheng, Tie Xuan and other family members who advocated cutting the feudal domain, which one was not beaten into a pariah? Or was it sent to the Workshop Division?

His crying and his act of seeking death and life were clearly seen by Huang Taiji. Ma Shaoyu tried to break free from the grip of the Kabush soldiers, crashed to death on the rocks, or rushed to Huang Taiji to force the slave chieftain to make the slave chief angry and put him to death. Even if it is a tragic death, it is much better than being punished by the court and the emperor. "Take him down, watch!"

"Slave Chief Hongtai, don't be arrogant! My great tomorrow is rich all over the world, the ministers are like clouds, the fierce generals are like rain, and I have millions of heroes under the command of Ning Yuanbo! There are countless artillery! Moreover, the treasury is full, even if you have to calculate it for a while today, it will be difficult to protect ......"

A few dull sounds of fists and feet touching the flesh and skin came, followed by a few whimpering, presumably because Ma Shaoyu was severely taught a lesson by those Kabush soldiers, and gagged his mouth with rags, preventing him from having the opportunity to scold Huang Taiji again.

"Hurry up and kill this official, otherwise Ning Yuanbo's army has arrived, and this official will definitely want you to survive and not die!"

There were a few shouts and curses faintly on the mountain road, and somehow, Ma Shaoyu broke free from the rags stuffed in his mouth. still scolded.

"Bogda Khan, this person is so rebellious, it is better to kill him!"

The red-robed monk's robe, the yellow monk's hat on his head, the living Buddha Ilaguksan, who represents Gushi Khan, Zangba Khan, the great sea master and the great erudite treasure and wise man, walked to Huang Taiji's umbrella cover with a smile on his face, and recited the Buddha's name to him.

"This man is now bent on death. But I can't kill him. Kill him, and he will be a loyal martyr of the Southern Dynasty. This person is going to come in handy! ”

In Huang Taiji's view, Ma Shaoyu, as a staff member of the Ministry of War, is undoubtedly a living dictionary for the military affairs of the Ming Kingdom, and it is undoubtedly the best choice to keep him, recruit him, and let him serve as a guide for the Qing army to enter the customs in the future. This person is no less important than Inspector Hong, how can he kill him with a single sword?

"Bogda Khan saw everything. Sure enough, it is the great wisdom and great mana that Manjushri only has in the body! ”

Ilaguk San casually sent out another high hat, and his mouth couldn't stop chanting, inferring from his expression, but it was also a good praise and praise.

After a while, the praise in his mouth stopped, and an attendant monk unfolded a huge thangka, on which was the scene of Manjushri preaching, guarded by eight heavenly dragons. There are countless Vajra Lux Heavenly Kings to follow, and there are countless maids and Buddha mothers in the air who sprinkle flowers.

"Bogda Khan, the king of the Qing Dynasty. The vast subtle merit is also born of Manjushri. For a long time, I have been writing a tribute to pray for a long life and a great career. It is appropriate to have a solid Khan to send a gift from afar in the last year, which is in line with his private wishes. That's why I'm writing this article. ”

On the other side, Huang Taiji's subordinate Wen Chen Ning Wan I had already translated the words recited by Ilaguk from Mongolian into Chinese and transcribed them in a manual script. Read it out loud.

"The most victorious perfection in the world, wishful thinking to the Three Jewels,

It is difficult to wait for the auspiciousness of all equals, and the special light is always cared for.

It is equivalent to the ancestor of the great Brahman world, and everyone respects the king's virtues.

The great emperor of the blessing of the great emperor shines on the earth like the sunrise.

The jewels of the holy scriptures are like the tide of the sea, filling the vast void,

The merit is free for the emperor, and the permanent realm is not bad and wishes to live for a long time.

Protect me like a loving mother, all beings are unforgettable,

Leave the love of all the enemies, show peace and wish to live for a long time.

All the afflictions of the vast earth, the bondage of darkness are liberated,

May Shi Yishan have new light, and auspicious victories will be comforted.

Miaoye white umbrella shades three places, often cool and peaceful,

The golden bell of the reputation rings, constantly rotating on the top of the void.

Fierce enemies are like vipers, disturbing evil and crooked ways,

The invincible emperor is invincible, and the power of the fearless Dapeng increases.

Incomparably rich in all the bright places, and Volta military crafts, etc.,

I hope that there are all kinds of grand events in heaven, and they will be as prosperous as the sea in an instant.

Nengren rails the moon pearl torch, shining on the cool light of billions of goodness,

The distribution is pleasant and fragrant, and the top is uncovered and reserved.

In the clouds of joy, the proclamation of the decree is like thunder,

Rain is equal to the Pak Pak rain, and I wish to protect the world without interruption.

and the track of peace is like a goddess, leading the boundless joy of the people,

People are blessed with happiness and sand flow, and may the general seat of this earth.

May this wide earth be as the heavenly realm of virtue is increased,

The great world candle is always blazing, and the experience is always bright.

The compassion of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the power of the gods of the white products,

Achieve the power of the Great Immortal Truth, so that this good wish is fulfilled. Bogda Khan, the king of the Qing Dynasty, and Manjushri Bodhisattva, born of vast subtle merits. For a long time, I have been writing a tribute to pray for a long life and a great career. It is appropriate to have a solid Khan to send a gift from afar in the last year, which is in line with his private wishes. That's why I'm writing this article. ”

Finally, after I finished reciting this hymn to the Qing Emperor and Bogda Chechen Khan, many of the relatives and nobles of Manmeng listened to it with wide eyes. I knew it was all compliments, but I couldn't understand a single word.

(This praise was not written by the author, but by the great sea master who is still preaching the Dharma in Tawang.) It's just that it was taken as a doctrine by the author. From this text, you readers can see the character and discipline of the great masters of the sea in the past. )

This Ode to the Bogda Khan was written by Iraguk III. This name can easily be seen as the Buddha of Iraq, and the full name is the 6th Ba Zhou Living Buddha Tangut. Ilaguk Samhutuk Tusechen Chogypa Gyatso is also a figure with some origins. The identity of the lay family is the nephew of Gushi Khan, and the identity of the Buddhist family is even more incredible. Moreover, as early as Chongzhen, he had befriended Huang Taiji for three years, and Lin Dan Khan was still there at that time!

Such an identity and friendship character is naturally extremely important to Huang Taiji, who urgently needs to get extra points in politics. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought Iraguk San here to watch how he wiped out Hong Chengchou's nearly 100,000 horses!

At that time, the great erudite treasure and wise man of the saint of the return of living beings and the great sea master who could know a qiē issued a decree to entitle Minak Gush Yuerji, who had been carried in the past, as the name of Ilguk Sanhu Tuketu, and sent him to the Heavenly Emperor of the East, Chongde Shengconghe, to send the book of Fengyun to the sun: among the beings who steal the cycle of life and death in the Three Realms, those who have obtained the precious body of the free are as rare as the stars of the day. In order to win the authority of the world and become a rare person, it is rare to get the wishful Qiong treasure. It is because of the autumn of this struggle, and for the vigorous cooperation of the Han in response to the situation, and the raising of the people of the world with politics and religion, it can be called the division of the Han. Hereby, I would like to ask you to support Buddhism and be the benefactor of our religion, so it is enshrined in a printed text. He Hannai bowed to greet him, bowed down, invited him into the Shengjing City, honored Ilagok Sanhu Tuketu as a meritorious lama, received the empowerment of wishful guidance, listened to subtle teachings, and received the teachings of the Dharma for the first time. Therefore, when the year was not over, when Ilaguk scattered the words of Tuketu and returned, he dedicated the Lama to immeasurable tribute. And the Lord offered the two holy lamas with countless treasures, gold, silver and all kinds of wealth, and sent a secret decree: I will take the capital city of the Great Ming and Han. Let the two holy lamas be invited to worship the living Buddha and teach the Dharma magnificently.

For the two Western Heavenly Buddhas, Huang Taiji is naturally very polite, not to mention the face of this Ilagoke San? With the help of the Huang Sect, his control and influence on the Mongolian tribes will be much smoother, and even extend from Qinghai to Sichuan, Kang, Ganqing, and other places.

The words were naturally extremely respectful, and he couldn't see that a hundred years later, his descendants Hongli would cut the living Buddha of the Red Hat and White Sect into pieces, making the murderous and domineering spirit of the temples everywhere.

However, the politeness to the two Western Heavenly Buddhas does not mean that the other two representatives of the lay forces are equally polite.

"Emperor Kuan Wen Rensheng of the Great Qing Dynasty sent an envoy to Zang Ba Khan: Er Shuyun, Buddhism benefits our country, and sent an envoy to send a letter. Recently, I heard that Erut was defeated by the Erut tribe Gushibel, but the facts are not known, because of a letter of inquiry. Since then, it has been repaired. What is used in all respects should be left behind. Now I will give a hundred taels of silver, and three horses of brocade. ”

"Emperor Kuan Wen Rensheng of the Great Qing Dynasty sent a letter to Gu Shi Khan: I have heard that those who violate the law have been punished. I think about the rule of the holy kings since ancient times, and the Dharma has not been broken. Now I want to worship the monks of the Tubeite tribe, so I sent an envoy to travel with Ilaguk Sanhu Tuketu, regardless of the color of the service, red and yellow, and visit everywhere, so as to macro Buddhism and protect the country. Attached to the full armor, especially to be tight. ”

The Wen jiàn title given to Zangba Khan is 谕, a typical tone of superiority and superiority. As for Gushi Khan, it is Zhi, and his tone is much more relaxed, and he is regarded as a equal force.

"Your honor, please transfer the two living Buddhas on my behalf, and after I conquer the Ming Dynasty, I will definitely promote the Dharma and make the people of the world devote themselves to the Buddha."

Come on! That's what you're waiting for!

Iraguk III retreated to his seat with joy, looking at the killing battlefield at the foot of the mountain.

There, already enveloped in artillery fire and gunsmoke. (To be continued......)
