Chapter 32: Encounter with the Tartars

Azig, the king of Dorowuyingjun, led an army of 100,000 to Mongolia, from Xifengkou, into the Great Wall, all the way south, burned and killed and looted, the momentum was like a bamboo, and more than a dozen prefectures and counties were linked, and they approached the Beijing Division, and the Ming Dynasty and the opposition were shaken.

But these 100,000 Tartar soldiers are not monolithic, and there is a general Amin under him, who is arrogant and domineering, and unruly. In fact, he just didn't accept it, not only did he disagree with Azig, but he didn't even accept Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty, if it was more serious, he also had a grudge against Taizu Nurhachi.

Amin's father was a brother to Nurhachi, but he died at the hands of Nurhachi, so Amin had a grudge against this uncle.

But Nurhachi was not thin on Amin, and the most famous of the Nurhachi period was the Four Great Beylers, and Nurhachi made Amin the second of the Four Beylers. The other three Beylers are, Daishan, Mang Gurtai and Huang Taiji, all three of whom are Nurhachi's own sons, but Amin is his own nephew who has a grudge against him.

It can be seen that Amin has a unique position in the Houjin royal family.

After Nurhachi's death, Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, Amin did not take this Huang Taiji in his eyes, often violated his will, did not obey the order, Huang Taiji ordered him to conquer the country, after Amin forced the court to accept the peace, he was unwilling to come back, fortunately because of the opposition of Zhubeile, Amin had to rein.

Huang Taiji also has a headache for this cousin, but Huang Taiji's skills are superior, and he deserves to be a master of scheming, otherwise Nurhachi's sons would not have his turn to inherit the unification as the "old eight".

Although Amin did not listen to the rules, it seriously affected his imperial power. But he doesn't plan to get rid of him, it's not that Huang Taiji is soft-hearted and thinks of family affection, but that the Qing Dynasty has just established a country, and Mongolia, Chaoguo, and Daming are all his fierce rivals. Amin is brave and brave. The first emperor Nurhachi did not kill him, but reused him, and of course Huang Taiji would not do such a stupid thing.

So he transferred the contradiction and let this disobedient thorn head go to the Ming Dynasty. But he must not be allowed to be the main general, and the main general will be Azig, who is the prince of Huang Taiji's half-brother.

Although Azig is Huang Taiji's half-brother, but Huang Taiji is the emperor, he doesn't support it too much, if it weren't for the fact that his brother Dolgon is still a teenager, he is even willing to support Dolgon as the emperor.

In this way, Huang Taiji sent these two political opponents out to conquer the Ming Dynasty, the old enemy of the Qing Dynasty.

In order to restrain these two political enemies and achieve a balance of power, Huang Taiji sent his own brother Abatai as their supervisor. It is interesting that this Abatai is also dissatisfied with his status, he is also the son of Huang Taiji, why everyone else is the prince and Heshuo Belle, and he only got a Dorao Belle.

In addition, Huang Taiji also sent the emperor's nephew Yue Tuo, who had just been demoted, to them, this is the son of Huang Taiji's second brother Dai Shan, and there is also Gushan Ezhen Tan Tai.

In this way, five members led the troops, and four of them did not deal with Huang Taiji, and they were all sent out by Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji was also very generous, and gave them several 100,000 horses at once, of course, these are Azig's white flag, Amin's blue flag, and Yue Tuo's red flag, 100,000 Tartar soldiers are mainly composed of these three banners.

As soon as these guys left Huang Taiji's eyes, crossed the Great Wall, and entered the Central Plains, they were like wild beasts out of the cage, and no one could stop them. The famous generals of the Ming Dynasty, Li Yongfang, Zhao Shujiao, Man Guilian suffered defeat, died and surrendered.

The Eight Banners of this Tartar were so powerful that they had long forgotten the unhappiness of the royal strife, burning, looting, and raping women, which greatly stimulated their bestiality, and made them even more wild and happy.

Gyeonggi of the Ming Dynasty was in sight, and Azig and Abatai were ambitious.

However, Amin and Yue Tuo were unwilling to obey the control, and they did not want to listen to the words of the main general Azig and the overseer Abatai, and they took 10,000 men and horses with blue flags and red flags, and they wanted to fight wherever they wanted, and they simply did whatever they wanted.

The border army of the Ming Dynasty, the defense was lax, the training was negligent, and at most it could rely on some firearms that were not very effective.

In this case, of course, the unlucky people were the common people, and after burning, killing and looting, groups of men, women and children were driven into the barracks by them. The women were for them to indulge in lust, and the men were like cattle, enslaved for them, and when the slightest misfortune went their way, they slaughtered them with great slaughter and were full of bones.

The common people can only flee from death, avoiding them like a plague, but when they can't dodge, only sheep enter the tiger's mouth, resign themselves to fate, the weak flesh, the strong eat, is the basic rule of this game.

On this day, Amin, who was full of fat and holding a money rat tail, had just come off the woman's body, and before he could breathe, someone under his command came to report.

"Lord Belle, the army of the barbarians was found earlier."

The people of the Ming Dynasty called these nomadic border peoples in the north Tartars, and these Tartars called these Han people barbarians and southern barbarians.

"How many?" Amin pursed his lips and wiped the beads of sweat on the front of his head with his big fan-like hand, which was almost bald, and he didn't care about it at all.

"If you go back to Lord Belle, it's about a thousand."

"Hmph, only a thousand people, let Yue Tuo kill them all."

"The minions obey."

This Yue Tuo had just been punished by the prince of Huang Taiji as Baylor, and he was somewhat connected to Amin, and now he had poured all his resentment on these Nanbans.

Along the way, he didn't know how many Han people he had killed, how many women he had wasted, and how many valuable things he had robbed, so it could be said that his hands were stained with the blood of Han people.

After Yue Tuo's order, more than 3,000 people wearing red flags rushed like a whirlwind towards a group of targets several miles away.

……

"My lord, a large number of Tartars have been found miles away!"

After walking for two more days, someone came to report to Zu Keyong.

"Line up!" Zuke was fierce and aggressive, and as soon as he heard that the Tartars were coming, he immediately became energetic.

What kind of generals are destined to bring out what kind of soldiers, and more than 1,000 people under him are like him, like chicken blood, and their spirits come up all of a sudden.

"My lord, there are too many Tartars, how many times more than ours, should we retreat first, avoid their edge, and then make plans." Wang Jian suggested.

"Withdraw, where to withdraw? Wilderness all around, do it with them! Zu Keyong looked around and gritted his teeth.

"My subordinates understand."

Under the command of Zu Keyong, in accordance with the principle of defending as the attack, one thousand Ning Yuan soldiers were quickly divided into three echelons, with 50 musketeers at the front, 200 archers in the second echelon, and the remaining 800 horse infantry soldiers in the third echelon.

After the camp was lined up, Zu Keyong immediately landed on a small hill slope behind the side, and Lin Yi followed closely with more than a hundred guards.

At this time, Lin Yi was a little nervous, as a person who had traveled over, although he had already adapted to the military camp life at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but after all, he was the legendary Tartar who was as fierce as a beast, and from beginning to end, he had never seen what the Tartar looked like, but he had an impression in the film and television lenses and literary works of later generations, but it was all fictional, and now it was going to be real.

It's the invincible Eight Banners Army in the world that you want to fight against!

And the enemy is outnumbered, the three major armies at the end of the Ming Dynasty, what Guanning Iron Cavalry, Qin Army, and Tianxiong Army, including the white pole soldiers in Sichuan, no matter how good the reason is, no matter how many times they have defeated the Tartars, but in the end they were all defeated in the hands of the Eight Banners Army of the Tartars, according to the theory of success and defeat, after all, it was Aixin Jueluo who finally won the world, laughed to the end, and laid the foundation of the Qing Dynasty for hundreds of years, this is an ironclad fact, this mainly depends on the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry?

Although Lin Yi had been mentally prepared, this body had also fought with the Tartars, but when the matter came to a critical juncture, it was inevitable that he was really going to fight with the Tartars, and it was inevitable that Lin Yi would be a little nervous as the first time.

However, he is not a recruit who has not been on the battlefield, the experience of special soldiers in later generations has forged his strong psychological quality, he has traveled for so long, and he has fought with border soldiers, bandit leaders and guerrilla commanders of Ning Yuan's army, and he has been beaten by the Weisuo army and Ning Yuanjun, and he thinks that the Tartar is not a big deal, and the Tartar is not a three-headed and six-armed person, he is also a flesh-and-blood person, and he also grew up eating food, and he is still angry when he dies, so he is full of confidence when he thinks about it, Some even can't wait to kill the Tartars.

"You're going to fight the Tartars in a while, you have to follow me, don't run around." Lin Yi whispered to Xiao Ying beside him.

Xiao Ying's big eyes lit up, revealing her teeth as white as jade, "Don't worry, Brother Lin, you can't get rid of me." But at critical moments, I will never be a burden to you. ”

Lin Yi was most worried about her, and after finishing his advice, he stared into the distance, and there was no movement in the vast wilderness at this time.

But the sight of people is too limited, even if they are immediately on a high place, in such barren hills and mountains, the enemy may attack at any time, and it is only a matter of minutes before the two sides engage in battle.

Knowing that the enemy was strong and we were weak, the experienced Ning Yuan army began to dig ditches and trenches, and seized the time to repair fortifications.

As soon as the ditch was halfway dug, someone shouted: "The Tartars are rushing over!"

The soldiers of Ning Yuanjun, who were repairing the fortifications, hurriedly threw away the shovels and pickaxes in their hands, picked up the weapons in their hands and prepared for battle.

Fifty musketeers of the first echelon were already in place, and they were half-squatting in a ditch about a meter away, and the bullets and gunpowder had already been loaded. However, in the face of several times stronger enemies, the firecrackers are limited, and they cannot form a chain of crossfire formations, so they can only use single-line firepower to frustrate the enemy's spirit, supplemented by two hundred archers, and the eight hundred centaurs of the third echelon are the charging force and the final force.

As soon as Lin Yi saw the formation set up by Zu Keyong, which was both offensive and defensive, and could advance and retreat, he knew that Zu Keyong was a general with rich combat experience, not a martial artist, and he was worthy of being the guerrilla commander of Ning Yuan's army!

At this time, in Lin Yi's sight, countless small black dots appeared, and the small black dots became bigger and bigger, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of horses galloped forward......
