Chapter 35: Dorgon's Trap

Wu Xiang saw this time, his face was a little pale, he had only seen the strength of the Jiannu, but he had not seen the strength of the Dazhong Army, today this was the first time he saw the Dazhong Army, and the Dazhong Army showed him a beautiful counterattack battle.

If this battle is put on their Ming army, Wu Xiang dares to say that this is definitely a big victory, and it is also a big victory in a big victory, this kind of victory has not been seen for many years for their Ming army, and Wu Xiang couldn't help but sigh, and secretly said in his heart No wonder the Xingtian Army can sweep the world and rarely meet opponents, but this Xiao Tianjian has the capital to laugh and be proud of the world, I really can't imagine how he can create so many powerful soldiers and horses with his own strength!

And Wu Xiang looked at this counterattack battle, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, feeling that his decision was still the right bet, the Dazhong Army does have the ability to be equal to Jiannu, and the combat effectiveness is by no means weaker than these Jiannu's men and horses, and now he has taken refuge in the side of the Dazhong Army, they have a chance of winning in this Shanhaiguan battle, according to Feng Weihan of the Dazhong Army, there are still two roads of people and horses in the Dazhong Army are rushing towards Shanhaiguan, with a strength of nearly 100,000, and Feng Weihan said, the Dazhong Army is the most important to the Han nation, Their main energy will be on the battle of Shanhaiguan against Jiannu, only after defeating the Jiannu army, they will go to Beijing to completely solve the matter with the Ming court, so this makes him feel very relieved, do not worry about the big Chinese army is eager for quick success, first divide the troops to fight the Beijing division, so that the Shanhaiguan side of the army is empty, and finally can not stop the Jiannu army from entering the customs.

People on both sides are nervously observing the situation on the battlefield, the nearly 4,000 cavalry of the Chinese army brazenly slaughtered out of the pass, first defeated the Jiannu army, and then drove them back like ducks, the entire Jiannu army can be said to have fallen into panic and chaos, so many Ming soldiers and generals thought that the battle had been decided, and they didn't have to worry about anything!

But after all, Wu Xiang is a veteran of the battlefield, although he has not made much achievements in dealing with the Jiannu army outside the pass for so many years, but he has lost many battles, and this experience is naturally rich, and his grasp of the situation on the battlefield is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people, and at the same time, he stands tall, and naturally sees far away, and the situation on the entire battlefield can be said to be seen by him, just when the other generals cheered for this, Wu Xiang's brows wrinkled.

"Military Gate! We won! Ha ha! Jiannu suffered a big loss this time! This big Chinese army is really brave and abnormal, and I admire it! It seems that the overall situation of today's battle has been decided, and the military gate should prepare quickly and reward the three armies! You can't snub these generals of the big Chinese army! A close general under Wu Xiang withdrew his gaze from the battlefield and said to Wu Xiang with a happy fist.

"Wait! I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think! Jiannu is not completely routed! I'm afraid that this cavalry of the Great Chinese Army can't be said to have decided the overall situation! Wu Xiang frowned, not moved by the words of his subordinates, and continued to stare at the battlefield in the distance.

At this time, the cavalry of the Dazhong Army out of the counter-war has chased the Jiannu rout out of the old distance, and the corpses and injuries of the Jiannu soldiers are lost everywhere in the entire pass, and many of the generals are strange for Wu Xiang's words, in their opinion, the Dazhong Army under the pass is now fighting quite well, and the Jiannu side has begun to rout as a whole, what else can Wu Xiang worry about? So all the generals looked at Wu Xiang one after another, feeling that they didn't quite understand his words.

Wu Xiang shook the battle robe on his body at this time, pointed his hand into the distance, and said to the generals who followed him to watch the battle: "Look! The courage of the Dazhong army is unmatched, and it is also a fact that the Jiannu army has been defeated, but you only see the appearance, but you have not seen it deeper, and the current rout of the Jiannu army is mainly the Han army banner of Jiannu and the soldiers and horses of the Mongolian Eight Banners, but they are not the main force of the Jiannu army that came this time, but the real main force is still the two flags of the Tartars under the command of Dolgon and Duoduo, and the Tartar soldiers of these two flags are not put into the battlefield today, but are supervising the battle in the rear.

You see, although the Jiannu army has been defeated, but this is white and white, but it is not chaotic, they are spreading out towards the two wings, the defeated Jiannu soldiers and horses let through, and the cavalry of the Dazhong Army is in the middle of the tail to chase these Jiannu routs, but on the battlefield can not see such a situation, if they continue to chase, then the two white flags of Jiannu are in their two wings, these two banners of Tartar soldiers, the strength is far more than them, just cut the past, you can cut off the retreat of the cavalry of this large Chinese army, once so, I'm afraid that the cavalry of these large and medium armies will be dangerous! ”

After Wu Xiang's words, the generals looked fixedly, but sure enough, they all saw the change in the situation on the battlefield, and some people's faces suddenly changed greatly, and some people scolded: "This damn Jiannu is really cunning and abnormal!" actually wants to use these routs to eat the cavalry of this large Chinese army, if they are allowed to succeed, there is no doubt that the large Chinese army will suffer a big loss of troops! Military gate, it is better to quickly notify Deputy Marshal Wang of the Dazhong Army and ask him to quickly order the collection of troops! ”

Wu Xiang nodded after hearing this: "Since they are now our allies, it should be so, come here, quickly inform Deputy Marshal Wang, and ask him to quickly order the collection of troops, don't fall into the trap of Jiannu Tartar!" Hopefully it's still too late! ”

As soon as his words fell, in the direction of Xiluo City, west of Shanhaiguan, a rapid trumpet sounded, and at the same time, accompanied by the trumpet, there was also a rapid sound of gold.

When Wu Xiang heard this voice, he turned his head in the direction of Xiluo City in a little surprise, and exclaimed: "This deputy marshal Wang also seems to have seen that the situation is not good, and he has already ordered the troops to be withdrawn first!" Terrible! That's amazing! Now we don't have to worry! Quickly arrange people to prepare wine and meat, and the officer will personally go to congratulate the officers and soldiers of the Great Chinese Army and the three armies! ……”

What Wu Xiang saw on the tower of Shanhaiguan City, how could Wang Chengping not see it on the tower of Xiluo City? Moreover, Wang Chengping still has the unique clairvoyance of the Dazhong Army in his hands, and he sees the situation on the battlefield more clearly than Wu Xiang, and Wang Chengping has fought no less than Wu Xiang over the years, and he has already been a battle-hardened old ginger, how can he not see Dolgon's idea of fighting?

Therefore, after he saw the actions of the two white flag Tartar soldiers led by Dolgon, he quickly judged Dolgon's thoughts, and saw that the cavalry under his command had already killed a short distance, and if he continued to pursue and kill like this, he would really fall into the siege of Dolgon.

So Wang Chengping did not dare to slack off, when even if he ordered to blow the retreat trumpet, and Mingjin withdrew the troops, the soldiers who went out of the pass would immediately withdraw to the pass.

At this time, the excited cavalry of the Great Chinese Army who were killing outside the pass, suddenly heard the rapid retreat horn and the rapid sound of gold from behind, they were a little unhappy, and even could not be said to understand, in their opinion, this is a rare opportunity to defeat this Jiannu army, think about their three battalions of cavalry of less than fourteen thousand, in one fell swoop to destroy the tens of thousands of Jiannu army, this is a great merit, and now they are about to succeed, but Wang Chengping behind them suddenly ordered them to retreat, This made these cavalry soldiers who went out of the customs and fought against each other a little incomprehensible, and even had a stomach full of complaints.

However, the military orders of the Dazhong Army are strict, and the subordinates must obey the command of the superiors, which is definitely an iron law, and no one can touch the high-voltage line. It is already cheap to directly remove their military status and take them into custody!

Although Xiao Tianjian also knows that the generals are not subject to foreign military orders, he often fully delegates authority to his subordinates, so as not to blindly command because the commander in the rear is not clear about the situation on the battlefield, and the commander who understands the situation can only obey orders, which ultimately leads to the defeat of the battlefield, but his delegation of power is only to the chief general who directly controls the battlefield, but does not delegate power to the officers who accept the command. There are very few mistakes in battle, and the main general has full autonomy, which is one of the reasons why the various departments of the Xingtian Army have won many battles.

Therefore, the cavalry officers and soldiers who heard the retreat order at this time, although they did not understand why Wang Chengping, who was in command behind them, ordered the troops to retreat at this time, but they did not dare to disobey the military order on the battlefield, and one by one they had to hold the reins of the horses, and one by one, with a stomach full of dissatisfaction, turned the horse's head, and began to retreat back towards the road under the command of their respective officers.

Dolgon was very excited at this time, on the one hand, he was angry, feeling resentful of the defeat of this day, but on the other hand, he was secretly happy, seeing that the soldiers with two white flags on the left and right were going around, and the cavalry of the Xingtian thief was about to fall into his trap, he was waiting for the retreating Jiannu army to immediately deploy on the spot, desperately blocking the cavalry of the Xingtian thief, so that the two wings began to outflank and intercept their retreat, but at this time, the sound of Mingjin came from the direction of the other party's Guancheng.

Immediately, the cavalry of the Heavenly Thief, like an arm and finger, collectively grabbed the reins of the horse, began to turn the horse's head, and withdrew in the direction of Guancheng, not caring at all about the tens of thousands of defeated Jiannu troops in front of them, as if these tens of thousands of Jiannu troops were not fat at all, and abandoned them as if they were sloppy, and began to withdraw their troops.

The angry Dorgon almost dropped his horse from the saddle and shouted, "Order Azig and Dodor to catch up immediately!" You can't easily let this torture thief withdraw to the gate safely! Ordered the gunners to fire artillery on the enemy, in short, they can't be let go like this! ”
