In his early years, he knew that the world was difficult, and the north of the Central Plains was like a mountain.

The building boat crosses the snow melon island at night, and the iron horse is scattered in the autumn wind.

Plugging the Great Wall is empty, and the fading temples in the mirror have been spotted.

A teacher is a real name in the world, who can be compared for a thousand years.

——Southern Song Dynasty • Lu You • Five Songs of Book Indignation • Part 1

After all, the great poet Lu Youwang's desire to set the Central Plains in the north failed to cross the Yangtze River, and soon he was sealed in the pages of history with regret, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion when he read it late at night after more than 300 years of Zuo Zhan.

The envoy sent to the Emperor's Taiji camp during the day came back and said that he was very arrogant, not only tore up the challenge book in public, but also threatened to capture the little emperor alive. In order to prevent Huang Taiji from attacking Luan at night, the left battle was suspicious, and six lines were set up in the military camp.

Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi did not dare to slack off, and stayed outside the camp of the left battle all night. The little emperor seemed to fall from the sky, not only disrupting their combat deployment, but also becoming the supreme commander of the Liaodong battlefield. Sun Chengzong was angry when he looked at him, a student who did not play cards according to common sense, and Xiong Tingbi was anxious for his granddaughter's lifelong happiness. The sixteen-year-old emperor was like Zhu Houzhao back then, which broke the hearts of the old ministers below.

There was nothing to do all night, and in the early morning of the next day, Zuo Zhan summoned all the generals in the big tent of the Chinese army, Sun Chengzong, Xiong Tingbi, Yuan Chonghuan, Chen Ce, Qin Liangyu, Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Wenzhao, Huang Degong, Man Gui, Zu Dashou and a large number of famous generals lined up in turn, divided into two columns and stood in front of Zuo Zhan.

Zuo Zhan saw that Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi's eyes were dark, and he knew that they must not have dared to close their eyes last night, and they were thinking about how to appease them, so he only heard Xiong Tingbi say with a complaining face:

"It is a major matter of the country for the Holy Emperor to drive his own conquest, how can he secretly go out of the customs despite the opposition of the ministers of the court and the central government! At this time, the government and the opposition shook up and down, what if the dragon trapped in the shallows, the foundation established by the ancestors for hundreds of years? ”

Sun Chengzong saw that Taiguozhang made the first move, and also complained:

"The Holy One is the true Son of the Dragon, how can he fight the thief head alone? There are no eyes on this battlefield, how is it good to hurt the dragon's body? ”

Zuo Zhan was like a student who made a mistake and was counted down by the teacher and parents in turn, he lowered his head and was not in a hurry to talk, and seeing that the two old ministers were in a slightly calm mood, he said slowly:

"Since I am the true dragon emperor, how can I be hurt by the recklessness of Huang Taiji. The 10,000 Yongwei battalion that I had allocated to Wen Zhao and meritorious service performed quite well, and one move to defeat the enemy enabled our army to gain absolute military initiative in Liaodong. The main purpose of this expedition was to test the combat ability of the Tiger Ben Athletes and prepare for the formation of the Marine Corps.

At present, the 100,000 Korean troops led by Li Rubai have captured Niumaozhai and will soon approach Huang Taiji's camp from the direction of Hetuala, so we must give Huang Taiji enough pressure on the front to prevent him from attacking Li Rubai's troops in the south. ”

After speaking, he led everyone to the sand table and continued:

"General Xiong attacked from the right, General Sun attacked from the left, and my tiger ben as a surprise soldier found an opportunity to participate in the battle on his own, defeated Huang Taiji's defensive position within three days, and drove all the prisoners to Salhu, where I want to sacrifice 100,000 Ming Dynasty heroes with their heads."

The arrangement of the left battle is also the previous battle plan, but there is an extra Tiger Ben and Yulin to use as a surprise soldier, so there is no need to readjust. Soon Sun Chengzong moved dozens of Luzon cannons to the right flank of Huang Taiji, and the cannonballs smashed over like hailstones.

This scene Huang Taiji saw clearly in front of the Chinese army, and for the first time he understood what an artillery salvo was, and the generals had already turned pale with fright, where did they still have the courage to ask for battle. Seeing that the army's heart was shaken, Huang Taiji immediately ordered:

"The firearms of the Ming Dynasty were bulky and had long loading intervals, so we only needed to bypass their range. Led by Erbeile Daishan and Yue Tuo, the two flags of Zhenghong and inlaid red attacked the Chinese army camp of the Ming Emperor, forcing the Ming Dynasty to return to help, and Ben Khan led the rest of the troops to annihilate the reinforcements of the Ming army one by one. ”

At this time, Huang Taiji had heard that Zuo Zhan was deliberately placed in Daishan, and the two sides still exchanged letters, although he suspected that this was the Ming Emperor's counter-plan, but the estrangement between him and Daishan and Yue Tuo did exist, so it was appropriate to send these two men as cannon fodder.

The mobilization of the Eight Banners Soldier Zuo Zhan understood that this was Nurhachi's move to encircle the point to send reinforcements, and he thought to himself, can't he change to a fresher way of playing? This decisive battle is inevitably too child's play, and it is estimated that Huang Taiji is also poor in donkey skills, and he can't find any other good way. So he secretly summoned Cao Wenzhao and Huang Degong, and asked them to avoid the main forces of Dai Shan and Yue Tuo, and go straight to the left flank of Huang Taiji, as long as Huang Taiji's Chinese army was in chaos, he ordered the whole army to rush straight up.

In order to temporarily contain the cavalry of Dai Shan and Yue Tuo, Zuo Zhan ordered Qi Changguo, Qi Xingguo, and Yu Dingbian to strictly hold their positions and not to fight, and to use the advantage of firearms to block the attack. Dai Shan had suffered the loss of this kind of firearm position as early as Yizhou, and he did not dare to advance lightly, which made Huang Taiji even more convinced that Dai Shan had taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty.

Huang Taiji's changes did not escape Zuo Zhan's eyes, at this time he was like a wolf waiting for his prey to appear, calmly observing everything around him. You must know that in the era of cold weapons, it is very difficult to command tens of thousands of people to fight, and these hundreds of thousands of people do not go to the playground to do broadcast gymnastics, they need to be constantly interspersed and mobilized, and once the opponent grasps the flaw, the whole army will be defeated.

To do this is to be invincible, and if you want to win, you must quickly mobilize different arms to attack the enemy's different positions. Book friends who have played the Legend of the Three Kingdoms should know that there are many weapons in the era of cold weapons, except for Qi Jiguang, who formed a phalanx of more than a dozen weapons, most of the armies are composed of different types of troops according to weapons, and there is a relationship between the arms. This is also why Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi are still in charge of the command and deployment of the army when they reach the front line, and his military literacy is not enough to be a commander.

The two sides were at a standstill, but Huang Degong and Cao Wenzhao's 10,000 Yongwei battalion quietly appeared on the left flank of the Huang Taiji Chinese army camp, and the two swooped in front of Huang Taiji like a tiger entering a flock. Xiong Tingbi on the right flank saw that the Chinese army was in chaos, and immediately ordered the whole army to launch a general attack, and more than 100,000 people rushed towards Huang Taiji's big tent.

Seeing this, Huang Taiji knew that this was a rape that could not be reversed, so he decisively gave up the Daishan father and son, who had already become "traitors", and retreated to Salhu with the four flags of Zhengbai, Bai, Zhenghuang, and Huang. Zuo Zhan saw that Huang Taiji could still command the retreat in an orderly manner in such a harsh environment, and the Eight Banners disappeared in front of him like a whirlwind, secretly sighing when he had such an excellent cavalry, and then pulled out his sword, pointed in the direction of Huang Taiji's escape and shouted:

"Sons, charge with me and capture Huang Taiji alive!"

Before the generals could react, Zuo Zhan had already slapped his horse and ran out more than ten zhang away, and Hu Ben and Yu Lin saw that the little emperor was so brave, and they all rode their horses and whips to launch a counterattack. The Daishan father and son who were sandwiched in the middle were miserable, they saw that Huang Taiji had already run, knowing that this was the anti-plot of the Ming Dynasty, and they were hesitating to see the Ming army rushing forward without their lives, and before they could figure out what was going on, their formation was divided into several pieces, and no one cared if they wanted to get off the horse and surrender, and they wanted to run and had no place to go, it was really an ancient anecdote.

At this time, the left battle was already red-eyed, and he quickly passed through Sun Chengzong's position with the Yulin guards and the three tiger bens, and approached Huang Taiji's rear team. Huang Taiji saw that the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty emperor was behind him, and immediately ordered the army to turn around and counterattack. The two fought hard under the protection of their own soldiers, one wanted to capture the emperor as a bargaining chip, and the other wanted to summon the soul of the heroic spirit here, and the corpses were all over the field in an instant, and the blood flowed like a river.

When Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi heard that the little emperor was fighting naked in the battle, they were so frightened that they peed their pants, and then ordered to throw down their firearms and charge with cold weapons, so as not to injure the emperor by mistake. At the same time, the cavalry of Huang Degong and Cao Wenzhao was ordered to form a meat shield with a human wall to isolate the left battle to a safe area.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and Huang Taiji saw that he couldn't get any bargain, so he immediately led his troops through the encirclement of the Ming army again and quickly moved to the north. Seeing this, Sun Chengzong immediately ordered the army to stop the pursuit, and on the one hand, he arranged for the deputy general to clean up the battlefield, and on the other hand, he returned to the big tent with the left battle to rest.

As night fell, darkness swallowed everything in Salhu, and the howling north wind mixed with goose-feather snow gradually fell, as if closing the eyes for the heroic spirits of those Ming soldiers. They may have been timid, or they may have been desperate, but they have never thought of escaping, and finally spilled their blood on this land, this is the backbone of Da Ming.

Now there are Jurchen corpses and the wails of the wounded everywhere, they know that the cold will slowly take away their lives, just like when they slaughtered the Ming army and people here, everything will quietly disappear from this world, but some will be immortal, and some will be stinking for thousands of years.

This battle Daishan, Yue Tuo was captured, its red, inlaid red two flags were annihilated, Huang Taiji's four banners were killed and wounded more than half, under the pursuit of the Ming army was forced to continue to flee to the area of Xiaoxing'anling, the disaster of the construction of the capture is the end of the crossbow. After the victory, the mood of the left battle was high, although he was hit by two arrows in this battle, he also killed more than a dozen people with his own hands, and the scholars and soldiers were a matter of an instant.

It was the Yeming army that all praised the bravery of the little emperor, only Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi had completely despaired of him, sitting next to Zuo Zhan, one holding one leg of his arm and begging for permission for them to resign and go home, and this old bone in the province hindered his hands and feet.

Zuo Zhan was also a little afraid when he saw this, and he was very ashamed of the concern of the two, and said seriously:

"The two generals are both heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and I am very relieved. Now that the disaster of Jianyu has been basically eliminated, Liaodong will be handed over to you, and I will drive back to Beijing tomorrow to celebrate your achievements in the Huangji Palace. ”

These two people have been in the evil deeds of the little emperor countless times, and they will not let go of Zuo Zhan's words. Zuo Zhan saw that Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi were eating the scales and had an iron heart to go by themselves, so he had to let Cao Huachun pass the decree to Hu Ben and Yu Lin to quickly count the baggage of the men and horses, and return to Beijing at noon tomorrow.

"Congratulations on the victory!"

As soon as Zuo Zhan entered Andingmen, the courtiers had already lined up to bow down to greet them, and in the cheers, they slowly walked down the street, enjoying flowers and applause. This is the honor he bought with his life, and no matter how big the ceremony is, no one knows the significance of this victory for the Chinese nation.
