The defeat of Dongguang County could not achieve its strategic goals, and Dolgon looked a little decadent.

After a period of careful planning, the 300,000 troops besieged the 40,000 Ming army vanguard could not take it, and it was impossible to say that there was no sense of powerlessness.

The more than 200,000 troops also lost their heads one by one, as if they were defeated, and anyone could see it clearly.

Tuo Yue's face twitched, and he didn't look good.

"Regent, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, not that battle can determine the success or failure of my Great Qing, you can't give up, Great Qing can't just fall!" Riding his horse to Dolgon, Toryue urged him.

Dolgon is the big tree of the Qing Dynasty, although many people are reluctant to admit it, but after the death of Huang Taiji, Dolgon is also the spiritual sustenance of the Eight Banners, only Dolgon can condense the Eight Banners, if Dolgon falls, the Eight Banners are also scattered, and the Qing Dynasty is not far from extinction, Tuoyue obviously does not want to see that scene.

Dorgon looked at the void and suddenly took a deep breath.

"Indeed, in this battle alone, the Qing Dynasty has not yet been defeated, and this king cannot give up until the last moment." Although Dorgon was in a state of despair for a while, he was the hero of a generation of heroes, and he quickly recovered.

"Just cheer up, Lord Regent!" Seeing Dolgon say this, Tuoyue also knew that Dolgon cheered up, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go, go to Cangzhou first, and then go back to the capital!" Although it is unlikely that Dolgon will personally sit in Cangzhou, he will also personally arrange it carefully.

After a day's rest in Dongguang County, the Northern Expeditionary Army.

On November 4, the fourth year of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, 330,000 troops including the Ying Long Army, the Surrender Army and other armies arrived at the city of Cangzhou.

After some persuasion to surrender to no avail, Zhu Ci hesitated to set up hundreds of cannons and shelled Cangzhou City fiercely.

The fire and explosion shrouded the entire Cangzhou City, if it were not for the scruples of the people in the city, relying on this artillery fire, the Ming army would not have to enter the city, and the entire Cangzhou could be destroyed into ruins by close artillery bombardment.

"Boom!"

The incomparably high-intensity intensive artillery bombardment did not last long, and the walls of Cangzhou collapsed.

In the end, it is a barrier made of bricks and stones, although in the face of cold weapons, like a moat, it is difficult to overcome, but in the face of the shelling equivalent to thousands of strength red-coated cannons, no matter how thick the city wall can not be stopped, as soon as the hot weapons appear in history, the city wall will lose ninety percent of its effect, it is not unreasonable.

Although the city wall has collapsed, the remnants and masonry are still nearly three meters high, but fortunately, it is only a stone slope, and the army can climb over the stone slope and the remnant wall on foot to attack the city!

"Kill"

I don't know what Zhu Cihe's thoughts were, but the first wave to enter the city was still Shang Kexi and the surrendering army.

Shang Kexi no longer has any ideas, not only because of the strength of the Ming army, but also because of Dolgon's incompetence, under the city of Dongguang, Dolgon personally commanded more than 300,000 troops can not help the Ming Dynasty's 40,000 vanguard army, it turns out that his choice at that time was so correct, this world is not full of people, the Ming will inevitably renew a bucket, and the current military exploits are the most important.

The injuries on his body were not good, and he could have not followed the army to attack on the front line, but he felt that there was no big problem, and he had to sacrifice his life to fight for the sake of his military achievements.

The surrendered army had the intention of making meritorious contributions and fought very bravely.

After storming the city, the Qing army put up a massive resistance.

When Dolgon passed through Cangzhou, he left behind a lot of Manchu children, in order to imitate Shang Kexi and other things, and arranged in the city, planning to kill and injure the Ming army on a large scale.

"Kill"

After the first wave of surrendering troops entered the city, they passed by an alley, and a large number of Qing troops suddenly killed in the alley, and they entered the surrendered army with lightning speed, and the surrendering army engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with these Qing troops.

Dolgon's arrangement was very simple, that is, he planned to rely on a large number of houses and alleys in Cangzhou City to fight a street battle with the Ming army, so as to counteract the Ming army's unrivaled long-range offensive and close to the Ming army to kill and injure the Ming army on a large scale.

Dolgon, who is known for his great talent, even thought of street fighting.

This trick is undoubtedly extremely vicious, but if it is used well, it can indeed achieve the goal of mass destruction of the Ming army, Dolgon's requirements are not high, and it is worth his pleasure that three Qing soldiers can kill and injure a soldier of the Ying Long Army.

Dolgon has long seen that since the establishment of the Ying Long Army, it has always been the core strength of the Ming Army, and as long as the Ying Long Army is harmed, it will weaken the strength of the Ming Army the most.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

As the last few people were slashed and killed, the Qing army that rushed out of this alley was completely annihilated.

Dolgon's mistake in predicting was that the Ying Long army was not the first to attack Cangzhou, but followed Shang Kexi to surrender to the Ming Dynasty's surrender army, and the surrendered army cleared all the way to the past, encountering more than a dozen major battles, each time all of them were annihilated and rushed out of the Qing army, but their own casualties were not small.

As the battle reports came one after another, Zhu Ci and the generals of the various armies who were still outside the city were stunned, and Dolgon actually used such a method.

The faces of several Ying Long army commanders are not very good-looking, if it is Ying Longjun who rushes in the first wave, even if Ying Longjun's melee combat is not weak, I am afraid that it will be damaged a lot.

"Dolgon is still not to be underestimated!" Zhu Ci sighed, he can always think of a way to deal with Ying Longjun, and if he doesn't pay attention, he may be succeeded by Dolgon, such a person, Zhu Ci can't be underestimated, and he doesn't dare to underestimate it.

"Give an order to the surrendering army, let them attack while shouting that those who surrender will not be killed!." Zhu Ci hesitated and ordered.

"Yes!" Immediately a herald went down.

Dolgon has his own schemes, and Zhu Ciji also has his own countermeasures.

Not only the front line of Cangzhou, but also in the siege behind, Zhu Ci also had a plan, since Dolgon reflected the street fighting, then he Zhu Ci could not lag behind, and he could use his heart to attack and further disintegrate the morale of the Qing army.

Zhu Ciji also asked people to immediately send an edict to the Broadcasting Department in Nanjing, asking the Broadcasting Department to write some of the current living conditions of the people of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the policies that the Ming Dynasty has continuously introduced over the years to benefit the people, as well as the enslavement of the Han people by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, as well as the purpose of those Haoqiang clans in the north who support the Manchus, etc., in short, the Ming Dynasty is for the sake of the people, and the Manchus and the Haoqiang clans who support the Manchus are in order to enslave the people and the like. Widely disseminate this Daming Daily in the north, not to make it a single person, at least he wants to let all the people in the north and the Qing army know about it.

This is called a psychological offensive, and the great man said it well, let the evil regime drown in the sea of people.

Zhu Ciji always believed that more than eighty percent of the soldiers of the Han Banner Army in the Qing army camp were composed of ordinary Han people, who were either persecuted by the nobles and Manchus, or survived for a mouthful of military food, but as long as they let them know what they were doing and what the Manchus and scholars they helped were for, their will to fight would definitely collapse.

Cangzhou City, Zhu Ci hesitated to let the army that invaded the city keep shouting that those who surrender will not be killed, which is also really useful, and it has broken the military heart of many Qing troops, and more and more Qing soldiers surrendered, and Cangzhou City was gradually occupied by the Ming army.
