"Kill"

"Bang! Bang! "Blazing bullets came out of the chamber.

The 10,000 soldiers of the Fourth Army of the Ying Long Army assigned by Yan Yingyuan, under his personal leadership, frantically pursued and killed the retreating Manchurians.

Manchus who came to stop the attack fell to their deaths from the guns and bayonets of the soldiers of the Fourth Army.

"Southwest direction, rush!" After solving a group of Manchu people who came to intercept him, Yan Yingyuan estimated that the Manchu people would chase in the direction of their escape!

Yan Yingyuan's purpose was very clear, to prevent these Manchus from going to Beijing City to join Dolgon as much as possible, and if possible, even capture the hundreds of thousands of Manchu old and weak women and children, and use them to coerce the Manchus to surrender.

"Newspaper"

"Lord Zhangjing, Niu Lu and they are all killed in battle, and the Ming army is chasing here!"

Hearing the scout's report, Lun Gu gritted his teeth angrily.

"Pass the order, let the clansmen speed up, and don't let the Ming army catch up!" Lun Gu couldn't, there were not many soldiers around him, and he couldn't be separated to intercept the Ming army's pursuers, so he could only let everyone speed up.

Fortunately, all the Manchurians, regardless of men and women, grew up on horseback, and everyone has horses, although because of the relationship between the old and the weak, the speed is slightly slower, but presumably the Ming army will be difficult to catch up for a while.

An hour later, the scouts who had been sent out came to report again.

"Newspaper"

"Lord Zhang Jing, ten miles ahead, I found that the Ming army intercepted it!"

Lun Gu was shocked, how could it be possible, how could the Ming army run in front of them.

Lun Gu couldn't figure it out, in fact, Yan Yingyuan had already expected that hundreds of thousands of Manchu old and weak women and children would inevitably flee all the way south, wanting to escape to Beijing City to join Dolgon, Yan Yingyuan sent a part of the army to detour from the beginning of the pursuit, blocking the way of the Manchurians, saying nothing to let these hundreds of thousands of Manchu old and weak women and children go to meet Dolgon so easily.

"Lord Zhang Jing, the road ahead is blocked, and there are chasing soldiers behind, what should we do!" A man of soldiers asked Lun Gudao.

Lungu's complexion is changeable, and he can't pay attention to it for a while.

"Boom"

Behind him, the sound of a large number of war horses galloping came.

"Oh no, the Ming army behind you is catching up!" Some people were furious and felt extremely aggrieved, if it weren't for the hundreds of thousands of old and weak women and children who needed protection, they really wanted to turn around and go back to fight with the Ming army.

Lungu didn't have time to hesitate, thinking of a temporary place to go.

"Let's go to the Mongolian steppe in the northwest, the grassland is vast, the Ming army will definitely not chase into it, and then find a way to go south and join the regent!" Lun Gu said, this is also no way, the Ming army clearly does not want them to join Dolgon, the purpose is to make the Eight Banners in the pass move, the soldiers have no will to fight, so as to achieve the goal of disintegrating the Eight Banners army from the inside.

In the face of the fierce pursuit of Yan Yingyuan and other Fourth Army, Lungu had no other way and took more than 100,000 Manchurians, old and weak women and children into the Mongolian steppe.

At this point, the battle of Liaodong was completely defeated.

Just as the war in Liaodong had just come to an end, and at the same time that more than 100,000 Manchurians, old and weak, had taken refuge in the Mongolian steppe, the decisive battle in Guannai was also carried out to the point of white-hot.

"Kill"

On November 13 of the fourth year of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army stormed Bazhou, Shenshi, the city of Bazhou was broken, and the Ming army entered the city.

The artillery of the Ming army was too sharp, and the Qing army adopted street battles in the city to gradually consume the Ming army.

It's a pity that Zhu Cicheng has long seen through this, except for a large number of enemy troops who need to dispatch the elite of the Ming army, all the work of clearing the enemy in the city has been taught to the surrendering army.

More than 100,000 surrendered troops fought with nearly 200,000 Qing troops in Bazhou City.

"Hurry!"

Many of the commanders of the Ying Long Army each brought their thousands of Ying Long Army soldiers to support in various places in Bazhou City, where there was a large force of Qing army resistance, they killed wherever they wanted, and they tried not to go to the alleys and houses as much as possible.

"Array! Attack Forward! ”

There was a Qing army of nearly 10,000 people in front of the battle with the surrendered army, and the Ying Long army entered from the densest place of the Qing army, and immediately tore apart the formation of the Qing army, and the surrendering army took the opportunity to divide and encircle and annihilate.

"Ying Longjun!" The Qing army was horrified, and its morale plummeted to the bottom.

"Those who descend will not be killed!"

"Those who descend will not be killed!"

The surrendering army and the soldiers of the Yinglong army shouted together that the surrenderers would not be killed, and the momentum was terrifying.

In the end, most of the Qing soldiers chose to surrender, they chose to be the Han Banner Army in the Qing army, not really loyal to the Manchus, but the strong and Manchu forced to join the army and the Ming army, at this moment, facing a dead end, they could only surrender.

The Qing army in Bazhou City was quickly purged, and more than 70,000 Qing soldiers of the Han Banner Army surrendered.

As for the soldiers of the Han Banner Army of the Qing Army who surrendered, except for the generals who led the troops and were temporarily imprisoned, Zhu Ciji did not hold any ordinary soldiers accountable, and sent people to give them a simple education, and then they were directly incorporated into the surrendered army.

The so-called education, in fact, is very simple, is to let them know what the Manchus are fighting for, what their leading generals are fighting for, and what the Ming Dynasty is fighting for, and they are also introduced to the current policies of the Ming Dynasty through the Ming Daily.

The surrendered Qing army quickly accepted its new identity, and the Ming surrendered to the army!

On November 16, the Ming army broke through Tianjin Wei, and a tragic bloody battle was launched here, Dolgon personally commanded the Qing army of Tianjin Wei, 500,000 Qing troops were densely packed, and the Northern Expedition army fought with it for two days, and after paying a lot of price, the Qing army was defeated!

In fact, it is not a small price, the casualties of the Ying Long army are less than 10,000, and the casualties of the other armies are only more than 20,000 people, although the surrendered army has more than 80,000 casualties, but the Han Banner Army captured along the way is replenished, in fact, not only has there been no loss, but also increased slightly.

On November 18, the Ming army broke through Guangyang, and the soldiers pointed directly at the city of Beijing!

Dolgon was desperate, from Shandong to Hebei, many lines of defense of the Qing Dynasty suffered a heavy defeat, seven battles and seven defeats, none of the battles could cause major casualties to the Ming army, the strength of the Ming army almost did not lose much, and the Qing Dynasty had lost more than a million troops!

Such a result shattered Dorgon's confidence that he could win!

Subsequently, Liaodong was defeated, and the news that hundreds of thousands of people, old and weak, women and children were forced to retreat into the Mongolian steppe, made Dolgon's heart even worse!

"Heaven is dead, I am clear!" Dolgon looks up to the heavens and roars!
