Chapter 10: The End of the Battle of Xuzhou

Some Mongolians did become part of the Eight Banners, the so-called Mongolian Eight Banners. However, these people are only a part of the Mongols led by Horqin, and they are not descendants of the Golden Family. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the center of Mongolia was in Hetao.

The unity of Manchu and Mongolia was based on the Manchu conquest of Mongolia.

At least at this time, Mongolia was not yet fully subordinate to the Qing court.

The Qing court arranged two battlefields at the same time, one was under the command of Haoge, and after Shaanxi was swept away, it was about to enter Sichuan. The other way is here at Dórd.

Others, such as Beijing, Shenyang, and other places, also have many Eight Banners. But these forces must not be used.

And only relied on the Mongol tribes close to the Qing court to pacify Teng Siji. First, Dolgon was not at ease, the Manchus were not only wary of the Han Chinese, but also did not have this feeling towards the Mongols. The Manchus did not want a powerful Mongol tribe to appear in the Mongolian steppe. Even the Mongol tribes who were close to the Manchus could not do it.

Second, the influence of the Golden Family must not be underestimated.

Dolgon was also worried about whether these Mongol tribes close to the Manchus, such as Horqin, would be able to quell the rebellion.

Therefore, Dorgon decided that Beijing would send troops to quell the rebellion. And it is necessary to fight a quick battle to deter Mongolia. Since this is the plan, it is necessary for the Eight Banners to come out.

However, the Eight Banners either sent troops from Hauge or garrisoned important places, and could not be easily moved. And Beijing can't afford to support three wars. The only order was given to make Dordor retreat.

When Duoduo retreated, there were thousands of unwillingness.

He stood on the embankment of the Yellow River on horseback, letting the cold wind blow over his face like a knife. But Dodor had grown accustomed to the feeling.

The Yellow River has long become a hanging river on the ground, and the Yellow River embankment has also become a commanding height nearby. Duoduo looked down on the south from here, and saw most of Xuzhou City. He seemed to be saying to himself, as if to someone else, "I'll be back." ”

After finishing speaking, Duoduo took his entourage, swept his cloak in the cold wind, jumped down from the embankment of the Yellow River, and galloped away.

At this moment, there is a thick layer of ice on the Yellow River. If you are willing to look at the past, it seems to be a heavenly road paved with glass. At this moment, tens of thousands of Qing troops are struggling to move forward on the ice, and all of them have a piece of cloth wrapped around their horses' hooves.

Restraining the horse with a baggage, there are also a dozen and a slip. And there is a team of people in the back. There are about 1,000 people in all the armor, neatly arranged. Stay at the back, not for anything else, just for the sake of breaking off.

The Yellow River is dozens of miles wide. Before the Qing army crossed the glacier. Just now, in the place where Duoduo looked, there were hundreds of horsemen huddled around dozens of people to ascend to the high place, but these looked far to the north.

"Lord Wang." One said, "Let's chase it?" ”

The person who spoke was Zhang Xuan's sworn brother Yuan Shizhong.

Xuzhou was originally the jurisdiction of Yuan Shizhong, and later Gao Jie retreated from the north and killed Wang Daoshan to seize Xuzhou City. This fell into the hands of Gao Jie. Gao Jie ordered his fierce general Li Chengdong to garrison Xuzhou. That is, Li Chengdong held out for several months under the siege of Duoduo.

Gao Jie had a bit of majesty on his face, and suddenly sighed and said, "There is no need to chase anymore." Don't take it lightly. It's been reported to the top. Don't add to it. ”

Yuan Shizhong listened to Gao Jie's words and said, "What the prince said is extremely true. ”

Yuan Shizhong was very touched by this.

After Xuzhou was besieged, Gao Jie first brought his headquarters along the canal and fought with the Qing army south of the canal, and Gao Jie almost lost his position. It is also Gao Jie's department, most of which are old Qin troops. Full of tenacity, this stabilized the position.

After a fierce battle, Gao Jie retreated and camped dozens of miles. Immediately call Nanjing for help.

In fact, for Gao Jie, he didn't want to let the forces of Daxia enter Huai'an, but after the battle with Duoduo, Gao Jie clearly realized that the Qing army was not something he could deal with. Sandwiched between two countries, it is simply impossible to preserve their independence.

Compared with Dongyu, Gao Jie's feelings for the Xia Dynasty are deeper.

Not to mention that Great Xia is not thin on him.

In the process of getting Gao Jie's request for help, Nanjing's army had not yet been sent, and the first to arrive at the battlefield was Yuan Shizhong's department.

It was not the first time that Yuan Shizhong's troops had fought with the Qing army, and after the Battle of Xiangyang that year, they had brief contact with the retreating Qing army. Yuan Shizhong was impressed. Yuan Shizhong joined forces with Gao Jie and gained a numerical advantage. Fight with the Qing army and be evenly divided on the battlefield.

For Duoduo, the most important thing was to attack Xuzhou, and the one that was put to the south was just a partial division.

Therefore, the Qing army turned from offensive to defensive, and the high base did not fight.

Yuan Shizhong and Gao Jie fought an offensive and defensive battle with the Qing army. As soon as I came and went, I fought for several months, and there was no movement for a long time.

Against Gao Jie He Yuan Shizhong is Baylor, Luck Dehun. but the grandson of Daizen. The relationship with Dorgon is somewhat delicate.

Luckedhun's elder brother, Adaali, publicly supported Dorgon's ascension to the throne after the death of Huang Taiji. After Dolgon and Huang Taiji got an agreement, they also regressed, and one of the regressions was to show that they did not mean to touch the throne.

So Adali became one of the victims.

Dorgon felt sorry for Adari.

There is also a lot of entrapment for Luckadhun. But Lectoshon was lukewarm to Dolgon, for the simple reason that his father had died, and there were many grandparents and grandchildren above, and some of them had watched his brother be executed. Although the bloodline is still there, how much family affection can have?

Luckedhun was even more resentful of Dorgon.

In any case, Adalie was a clear supporter of Dolgon, but Dolgon betrayed them.

These grievances and hatreds made Luckett stay away from politics. Single-mindedly fighting on the battlefield. is also a great general. It's just that he wants to be willing to be political, and politics may not be able to stay away from him. Because of Adari, everyone saw him as a Dolgon. And with Dorgon's support, he can show his strengths in the army.

Just as now Dodor is so heavy on him, let him stand alone, there is no reason for this.

Gao Jie and Yuan Shizhong couldn't attack the strong wall of Luckedhun, and the news spread to Nanjing, so that Luo Yulong once had the intention of raising troops to the north, if it wasn't for Zhang Xuan's war in the south that restrained the manpower, material and financial resources of the Xia army. I can't say that Luo Yulong is about to send troops.

All kinds of battles came to my heart before, and then I looked at it from a distance, and the Qing army brigade was walking on the ice. It is also neatly formed, not chaotic at all, and you can know it at a glance. The strength of the Qing army was not lost. In such a situation, the pursuit may not have any good fruit to eat.

That's it. Gao Jie and Yuan Shizhong each collected their troops and played the details here to Nanjing, Nanjing has been waiting for the news of Xuzhou for a long time, and it is needless to say that there is no need to say much about the reward. immediately announced to the world, so that the whole world knew that Great Xia was defeated twice. For a time, the people in the south had a much less sense of fear of the Eastern.

After the reward, the ministries dispersed.

Gao Jie comforted Li Chengdong and still ordered Li Chengdong to garrison Xuzhou.

He also returned to Huai'an with his headquarters.

When I came to Huai'an's nest, I don't need to say much about all kinds of blessings.

To put it simply, in the dead of night, Gao Jie looked at the curtain on the bed with his eyes. Mrs. Xing saw it on the side, pushed Gao Jie and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Gao Jie and Mrs. Xing have a good relationship.

Gao Jie has never been a girl around him, and Mrs. Xing has lived up to her original role, she is already a. But Gao Jie still picked some days to share the bed with Mrs. Xing. Sometimes I don't do anything, I just lie down and talk.

If a person like Gao Jie is placed in the next generation, he is a peerless scumbag, but at that time, he could be called affectionate.

Gao Jie said: "Think about this situation. You see that Zheng Zhilong, a pirate, has dedicated Fujian to Fujian, am I also dedicating this land to the imperial court now? ”

When Mrs. Xing heard this, she felt a little relieved.

Women, rarely have too much ambition, and Mrs. Xing is the same even if she is a female middle school. Now Gao Jie is crowned the king of the county in Great Xia. He is the Lady of the County King. This is already something he can't even think of. But Mrs. Xing held a place for Gao Jie and refused to enter the court. There was some worry in my heart.

The concept of the unification of the Chinese people has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Gao Jie's approach Mrs. Xing was worried that there would be no good end in the future, especially when Zhang Xuan was winning many battles and sweeping the south, in the blink of an eye, the Xia Dynasty was no less than the territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
