Chapter 073: Dolgon's Faith

"Master! Sure enough, as you said, the minions were ambushed in the area of the Zhongzuo Banner of Horqin, and they did encounter a cavalry of the Ming army! Duolun knelt on the ground, his expression was excited, his eyes were full of adoration, he looked at Dolgon who was sitting on a war horse, and said with excitement in his tone: "Relying on your master's guidance, the minions successfully burned a small batch of grain and grass of the Ming army in this area, and our army did not suffer much loss. ”

"Get up, what you have done is but a temptation." Looking at Duolun Gu who was kneeling on the ground, Dolgon who was sitting on a war horse, his eagle eyes flashed, and he said indifferently: "For our army, there will be many, many such temptations in the next period of time. ”

Since the outbreak of the war, counting the time, the left and right flank armies led by Yue Tuo and Mang Gurtai have been in the Horqin region for more than half a month, and in this more than half a month, the two sides have been fighting back and forth on the vast battlefield of Horqin.

Although it shows that the army commander You Shiwei does not have an advantage in the number of soldiers and horses, but with advanced weapons and equipment, he firmly restrains the soldiers and horses of the Qing Dynasty in the Horqin region, which makes Mang Gurtai, Azig and other Qing Dynasty Baylor, Beizi, banner owners, and generals all hold back a wave of anger in their hearts!

In addition to Yue Tuo, the commander of the left-wing army, and Fan Wencheng, the allied army, only the young Dolgon can also remain calm.

Chongzhen eight years, calculating the time, the young man in the past, now he has grown up, at the age of 23, in a group like Jiannu, he is already a battle-hardened warrior!

Ever since Amma, who loved him, and Nurhachi died in war, Dolgon has never felt a trace of love in this world.

His second brother, the current lord of the Qing Dynasty, Dai Shan, since Amma inherited the throne, although he has taken good care of himself, but Dolgon's sensitive heart can keenly perceive that his second brother is afraid of him.

Is it because he is deeply loved by Amma?

This was the most thought that Dolgon could have in his mind since he first arrived in the capital.

But as time passed, as Dolgon grew up, he began to feel the cruelty of the world with his heart, and he found many problems that he had not thought of when he was young.

His mother concubine Abahai, since he was brought to Longdu, even if he is his own son, and his younger brother Duoduo, if they want to see their mother and concubine, they must report to the palace in advance, otherwise they can only live in the station of Zhenghongqi and accept the training of the fierce generals in the banner, Hunta, Zhun Tower and others.

Like Nurhachi, he was skilled, skillful with bows and horses, and sharp-witted, and when these advantages were concentrated on Dorgon, many of the Jiannu looked at Dolgon differently......

Although Dai Shan's heart has always been very jealous of the two brothers Dolgon and Duoduo, but because of his own hard development in a cruel environment, Dai Shan has to reuse the two brothers Dolgon and Duoduo, and in the process of cultivating Dolgon and Duoduo, the light shown by the two has made Dai Shan fall into a very tangled psychological state.

Especially to Dorgon!

But after all, Dai Shan is a veteran of power and scheming, and despite such a tangled psychology in his heart, he can still know the way to restrain Dolgon, one is to reuse his own brother Azig, who is against Dolgon, and the other is to control Dolgon, Dorgon's mother concubine Abahai.

Of course, this control of Abahai had to find a beautiful argument in name, one that would make Dorgon and Dordor unable to find a reason.

This is why Abahai was willing to keep a vigil in the dragon capital for Nurhachi.

In the same way, in order to be able to control Dorgon and Dordor, Daishan also secretly received Abahai, and used threats to make this great mother, in order to let her children grow up healthily, she must suppress her emotions, and at the same time dilute her rational position in Dorgon and Dordor.

In this way, Daishan not only won the allegiance of Azig, but also gathered young tiger generals such as Dorgon and Dord.

These experiences since childhood have matured young Dolgon's heart very early, and although he seems to be extremely bold and impulsive on the surface, deep down in him hides a rational soul, a soul that wants to seek true knowledge.

And these are the necessary conditions for handsome talents.

Looking at the Duolun bone in front of him, who was once the clothed slave Amma found for him, Dolgon's heart was quite touched, and every time he saw Duolun bone, he would think of the good times he had with Amma, with his mother, with his brother Azig, and with his brother Duoduo.

But these can only be good memories now, and it is impossible to go back.

Dolgon turned over and dismounted, holding the hilt of the knife at his waist with his right hand, looked at the grassland in the distance, and said in a thick tone: "Duolun Gu, in the process of attacking the Ming army, did you find anything unusual?" ”

Since the end of the fiercest war some time ago, during this time, they have not encountered a strong counterattack by the Ming army, and in this vast grassland, the grassland tribes that once lived and raised here have disappeared without a trace.

This time made Mang Gurtai and Yue Tuo very suspicious in their hearts.

But whenever they wanted to lead the army out of the Horqin region, the disappeared Ming cavalry and the disappeared grassland tribes always appeared in key positions, making them unable to establish a strategy at all.

Duolun Gu frowned, and tried to recall: "Back to the master, in the process of leading the army to harass the cavalry of the Ming army, the minions really found a few places that surprised the minions. ”

"Oh?" When Dorgon heard this, he asked, "Then tell me what surprises you." ”

Duolun Gu nodded and said: "This time, in the process of leading the army, the minions have found small groups of Ming army scouts many times, they are about ten miles away from my team, and every time the minions are ready to send small groups of cavalry to fight with those entangled small groups of Ming army scouts, they always flee as fast as possible."

There is also something strange in the minions' hearts, on the way to lead the troops, the minions have found many gathering points gathered by the grassland tribes, but the only thing that is strange is that those grassland tribes do not live in the traditional sense of the yurt, but stone cities built of stones......"

"What!!" When Dolgon heard this, his eyes were full of shock: "You mean that in the process of running, you found the stone city built by the steppe tribe?" ”

Duolun Gu said: "Yes, master, when the slave reported this matter to the right marshal, the right marshal (Mang Gurtai) didn't care very much, but the slave always felt that something was wrong in his heart, so he thought that when he saw the master, he would tell the master about this matter." ”

Because Mang Gurtai is an extremely strong lord, coupled with the perverted experiences he has experienced in Liaodong, his temperament has changed greatly, so in the war in the Horqin region, although each department has its own Baylor, Beizi, banner master, and military master, but what kind of strategic deployment they want to carry out in private, they must report to the right marshal, otherwise they will be punished for treason!!

After listening to Duolungu's explanation, Dolgon instinctively screamed in his heart: "This is by no means a simple supervision of the construction of a stone city, there must be a change in the strategy of the Ming army, and I am afraid that there will be a big war next!! Thinking of this, Dorgon wanted to ask something.

Duo Lungu then expressed the doubts in his heart: "Master, why do you say that we should stay in the Horqin region honestly, why can't we bypass the Horqin region and detour to the area adjacent to the two towns of Thunder God Town and Liaodong Town to attack?" In this way, even if there are many soldiers and horses in the Ming army of Liaodong, but our army also has so many soldiers and horses, there is no need to stagnate here! ”

Because they stayed in the Horqin region for a period of time, this also made the Qing soldiers led by Mang Gurtai and Dolgon already know some of the situation of the Ming army in Liaodong through the princes of the grassland tribes who had surrendered, although the knowledge was not complete, but the situation in the area of Liaodong Town and Leishen Town was relatively accurate.

"Without a thorough grasp and slaughter of the Horqin region, our army will not be able to go to the border of Liaodong Town on a large scale." Dolgon's expression was a little fierce: "According to the current situation, there are at least three border towns in Zhao Zongwu's hands, if our army abandons the Horqin region and does not inflict heavy losses on the Liaodong Ming army in the Horqin region, then it is very likely that when the main force of our army attacks Liaodong Town and Leishen Town, they will detour to the rear of our army and carry out a front and rear attack on our army!" Now is not the time to talk about this, follow me to find Mang Gultai!! ”

In front of people, Dorgon is extremely humble, but in front of his own minions, he will show off his own pride.

Since the death of his own Amma, his mother was sad and never heard anything outside the window, and his brother turned against him, which also made Dolgon only believe in power in his heart!

In order to make his younger brother Dordor, he can still feel a sense of security, and in Dorgon's bones, he has also grown a tough momentum.

It is also because of these dispositions that he can occupy a place in the talented Qing army at such a young age.

Although Dolgon sensed a hint of a different taste, it was still a little late for him to realize this kind of perception in the end, because the counterattack from You Shiwei was coming, and this tactical counterattack was carried out with the absolute support of the political envoy of Liaodong Chengxuan, and it would eventually break up the Qing Dynasty's advance soldiers and horses, and the overall trend in the Horqin region!!

The strength of the Huaxia Army, that is definitely not blown out!
