The sky is clear, the snow is all over the ground, and the warm sun is very comfortable.

It was a rare good weather, and early in the morning, dozens of horsemen galloped out of a palace in Nanyuan and headed straight for the jungle in the northwest.

Huang Taiji moved his hands and feet on the horse, then took off the longbow on his back and stared at the snow in front of him.

Horses' hooves burst, snowflakes flying, and the roe deer, deer, foxes, and rabbits that were originally foraging on the snow are all startled and scurrying around, so lively.

A rabbit suddenly sprang out of the snow about 100 steps in front of the left, Huang Taiji did not hesitate to bend his bow and arrow, and with a "whoosh" sound, the snow-white rabbit was stared at the ground, kicked his legs a few times, and did not move.

A group of guards were about to pick it up, and suddenly two sika deer without flowers suddenly came out of the jungle more than two hundred steps away in front of the right, Huang Taiji immediately pulled the horse's head and rushed to the right, and a group of guards did not look at the rabbit on the ground, and rushed over.

There are still about one hundred and fifty steps, Huang Taiji slowly pulled out the arrow from the quiver, put it on the bow, but his eyes never left the sika deer in front of him, and there were about a hundred steps, Huang Taiji immediately raised the longbow and instantly rounded it.

At this time, the two sika deer were frightened, suddenly turned around, and ran into the jungle again.

Huang Taiji seized the opportunity, the longbow moved, the right hand was loosened, "whoosh", a sika deer was shot in the neck, fell to the ground, Huang Taiji was about to draw out the feather arrow, to shoot the other sika deer, but the sika deer has already swooped into the jungle.

He shook his head regretfully, and then slowed down his horse and asked his guards to fetch the prey.

After hunting these two prey, it was enough to move his muscles and bones, and Huang Taiji began to pay attention to the surrounding scenery.

Looking around, there are rivers and lakes everywhere, mountains and forests everywhere, and running prey everywhere, this is really a good place!

Not far away, a group of men were digging ice on the surface of the lake to fish, and he slowly beat his horse over, shouting loudly: "How is the harvest?" ”

When the group of flag men heard this, they immediately picked up the strings of fatty fresh fish on the snow, raised them and said excitedly: "Da Khan, the fish here are so easy to catch, it's just like picking up, do you want to take a few to stew soup." ”

Huang Taiji nodded and motioned for the guards to fetch a few, and the team of flag men immediately danced excitedly.

Looking at the cheerful appearance of the clansmen, Huang Taiji showed a knowing smile on his face.

The Jurchens started between the white mountains and black waters, and were originally fishing and hunting people, but they gradually expanded south and west to live a life on horseback, but they did not leave behind fishing and hunting, and the men in the clan were all good at fishing and hunting.

This great river and mountain of the Ming Dynasty is simply a paradise for the Jurchens, and now the powerful Jurchen tribes can not only hunt animals, but also hunters, and they can also hunt in this world!

Just as he was full of ambition, a troop of iron horsemen suddenly galloped from the north.

Huang Taiji looked at it with his eagle eyes, and immediately saw that it was Qi'er Harang, who was in charge of the northern guard, why did he come?

Mang Gurtai died, and he lost a peerless general, but he died well, this guy was so fierce that he was against himself, so fierce that he wanted to usurp the position of the Great Khan, and now the four banners of the left wing are led by Qil Harang and he is more like an arm!

It's just a pity that the elite of the four thousand Eight Banners, damn it, I heard that it was a good thing done by the Qi family army trained by a governor named Zhang Bin.

Qi Jiajun, it's not easy to deal with, if you have a chance, you can yin him and let those "infighting" masters in Daming clean him up!

Huang Taiji had already turned countless thoughts in his mind before Qi'er Harang came to him on horseback.

This Qilharang was the son of his uncle Shulhaqi, who was brave and good at fighting, and loyal to him, so Huang Taiji handed over to him all the four banners on the left wing and the guard in the north.

There were still about 100 steps away, and Qierharang arched his hand and said: "Great Khan, there are signs of the Ming army gathering, how should we deal with it?" ”

Huang Taiji smiled heartily: "Hahahaha, are they finally going to die, how many people have been gathered?" ”

Qierharang raised his hand to stop the guards, and came to him alone and said seriously: "I don't know how many men and horses they want to gather, at this time, the army of King Qin, who has gathered at the foot of the capital of the Ming Dynasty, is no less than 200,000, and the army gathered in the south of the city is no less than 100,000, it seems that they can't help but want to come and drive us away." ”

Huang Taiji said contemptuously: "I've been waiting for almost a month, and I haven't seen them come to die, I thought they were going to keep us here for the New Year, more than 200,000, very good, it's best to come all over, a war, he can't get up after fighting!" ”

Qi'er Harang was not as confident as Huang Taiji, he hesitated for a moment, but still stubbornly asked, "What if the engagement is unfavorable?" ”

Huang Taiji said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if the battle is unfavorable, I was originally going to leave after the New Year, and if the battle is unfavorable, we will go, take them around the border of Beizhili, and when they are sleepy and tired, we will go to take Tongzhou, Jizhou, Zunhua, Qian'an, Yongping line, guard, go back to recuperate, and you can go straight to their capital in the coming year, and let them gather the army again when the time comes, so repeatedly, play them a few times, and see how much money they have to pay for food!" ”

When Qierharang heard this, he thought about it carefully, and couldn't help but arch his hand and said: "The Great Khan is wise, so consuming the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how rich they are, they will be eaten up by the army of King Qin every year." ”

Huang Taiji smiled and shook his head, and then asked, "Has Huang Chenghao been contacted?" ”

Qierharang said ashamedly: "Great Khan, I blame me for being careless, and I didn't send heavy troops to guard Nanyuan Flower Township, so that Huang Chenghao's family was robbed." I sent two groups of people to infiltrate the capital of Daming, the first batch failed to come back, and the second batch went around the Huangfu in the capital, and found that something was not quite right, so they withdrew directly. ”

Huang Taiji frowned, and then asked, "Did anything major happen in the Daming Capital during this time?" ”

Qierharang thought for a while, and said embarrassedly: "Without internal response, it is not convenient for us to inquire about the news, we can only hearsay, if we want to talk about big things, but I heard about one thing, a few days ago, Wang Yongguang, the secretary of the Ming Dynasty, was sentenced to the nine clans, and he himself was executed by Ling Chi, and many other officials were also beheaded, and I heard that hundreds of people were cut down." ”

When Huang Taiji heard this, he muttered: "It turned out to be Wang Yongguang, Yuan Chonghuan and Qian Longxi, why haven't they been executed yet, something is wrong, is this little emperor suddenly smarter?" ”

He shook his head, raised his hand and said: "Go, guard carefully, in addition, send more people to find out the news, if there are any greedy and lustful courtiers, try to contact them, buy them if they can, don't care about the grade, infiltrate their court first." ”

Huang Taiji is afraid that he is thinking too much this time, Chongzhen's killing, he is really afraid of killing the whole Ming Dynasty, fornicating with Jiannu, and after the bloodstains outside the noon gate dissipates, there may be those who are not afraid of death, but at this time, I really can't find one.

At this time, Yuan Chonghuan had been released, and Guan Ning Iron Cavalry was also recruited back by Sun Chengzong, and as soon as the white pole soldiers of the Sichuan army arrived, Chongzhen finally couldn't sit still.

This is about to be the New Year, Huang Taiji is still in Nanyuan does not go, the capital does not dare to open the city gates on the east and west sides, the north gate is only a limited time to open, and you have to be careful, the capital materials are becoming scarce, the people complain, how to spend this year.

For Chongzhen, who is determined to be a Ming Jun, he can't live the year when he is forced, which is simply a great shame!

Now, there are more than 200,000 Qinwang troops gathered in the capital, plus tens of thousands of horses in the Beijing camp, the total strength has exceeded 300,000, among them, there are 10,000 invincible Qi family troops, and 10,000 Jiannu see the headache of the white pole soldiers, and 20,000 Guanning iron cavalry that can compete with Jiannu, and there are tens of thousands of iron cavalry and 100,000 Mengyuan miscellaneous troops on Jiannu's side, afraid that he will come.

The young and vigorous Chongzhen made an order, Zhang Aiqing, give you 200,000 horses, go, drive Jiannu away to me, and watch them upset when they celebrate the New Year.

Zhang Bin is helpless, pushing back and forth, and finally has to be tough with Huang Taiji, he can only train 10,000 elites, okay, there must be 100,000 elite soldiers, you don't need Chongzhen to speak, I will go up and do Huang Taiji myself, but now, this timing is really, quite bad!

Fortunately, Chongzhen also knew that Jiannu was very slippery, and he didn't say that he would lead the army to annihilate Jiannu, and it didn't seem difficult to beat them away, because Huang Taiji was here to make trouble, and it was unlikely that he would fight with the main force of the Ming army.

Outside the Yongding Gate, Zuo'an Gate and You'an Gate in the south of the capital, nearly 200,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty gathered, Hengtan was in front of the city wall of 16 miles, the camp tents were dense, and the thickness was four or five miles!

At this time, I am afraid that even if Huang Taiji is invited to attack the capital, he will not come, and the army outside the city alone is enough for him to drink a pot, not to mention that there is a wide moat and a towering city wall behind it.

At midnight that morning, three miles south of Yongding Gate, the big tent of the Ming Army on the South Road, the commander Zhang Bin summoned all the important generals to the tent to discuss matters.

The "generals" gathered, Zhang Bin sat in the handsome position, glanced at the "generals" on the left and right, this fuck in his heart, the military system of the Ming Dynasty, it is really fucked up, what kind of "generals" are these!

From left to right, from top to bottom, there are few real generals!

The first place on the left, the eunuch of the celebrant Bingbi is corrected.

Well, this is not a general, the emperor sent him to supervise the army, on behalf of this emperor, it would be good for him to stand honestly below.

Next, the second place, the second-grade lady Qin Liangyu, and the stone pillar acting toast Qin Liangyu.

Well, this is actually a fierce general, although she is a woman, she is more than six feet tall, although she is not a tiger's back, but she is heroic, and in terms of fighting, it is estimated that ten Zhang Bin are not her opponents.

Next, the third place, Fujian General Qi Yuangong.

Normal, this is Zhang Bin's favorite general, the chief general of the Qi family's army.

Next, the fourth, deputy chief soldier Qin Yiming.

The chief general of the white pole soldiers of the Sichuan army, this is also normal.

The first on the right, Yuan Chonghuan, the deputy governor of the left capital, the imperial Shi Ji Liao.

Well, this person is actually a little higher than him in terms of position, but who is now favored in front of Chongzhen, at this time in Chongzhen's eyes, he is simply omnipotent, so Yuan Chonghuan can only temporarily succumb to him and listen to his command.

Of course, Yuan Chonghuan didn't have any opinions, his life was saved by others, and he commanded what's wrong.

Next, the second place, the chief soldier of Liaodong forward, Zu Dashou.

Normal, this is the main general of the Guanning Iron Cavalry.

Next, the third place, Hou Shilu, the chief soldier of Xuanfu.

Normally, Zhang Bin asked him to command 50,000 border troops.

Next, the fourth place, Changping General You Shiwei.

Normally, Zhang Bin asked him to command 50,000 border troops.

Next, the fifth, the daimyo prefect Lu Xiangsheng.

This seems to be extremely abnormal now, a civil official, not a little famous, Zhang Bin asked him to command 60,000 other Qinwang troops, it is simply inexplicable.

Those who know Zhang Bin a little know that he is a typical cronyism, because Lu Xiangsheng is on the same list as him.

Zhang Bin didn't explain, he was nepotistic, what's wrong?

After glancing around, Zhang Bin's face turned straight, he slowly stood up, and said respectfully towards the north: "The emperor has an order to drive Jiannu away from me, and I am upset when I see them for the New Year." ”

This sounds weird, but at this time, if the emperor's words are passed on, then you have to follow the original words, if you dare to change a word, you will be in trouble.

When Zhang Bin said this, the "generals" not only did not show strange expressions, but raised their heads and chests in unison, making a serious and respectful gesture.

After passing the decree, the next step was to arrange the task, Zhang Bin said loudly: "Qi Yuangong, I order you to lead 10,000 Qi family troops as the outer wing, divided into three teams, the front team of 200 Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles is horizontally distributed, 5,000 foot followers, 200 tiger squat artillery vehicles follow behind, 200 Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles on the left and right wings form a column, and 100 tiger squat artillery vehicles are in the center. ”

Qi Yuangong listened to the order, arched his hand and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "Hou Shilu, order you to lead 50,000 border troops to the left, close to the Wuhan Iron and Steel Vehicle, and protect the Tiger Squat Artillery Vehicle." ”

Hou Shilu listened to the order, arched his hand and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "You Shiwei, order you to lead 50,000 border troops to the left, close to the Wuhan Iron and Steel Vehicle, and protect the Tiger Squat Artillery Vehicle." ”

You Shiwei listened to the order, and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "Qin Yiming, order you to lead 10,000 Sichuan troops to break off." ”

Qin Yiming listened to the order, arched his hand and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "Zu Dashou, I ordered you to lead 20,000 Guan Ning Iron Cavalry to the front, and follow the tiger squat artillery car. ”

Zu Dashou listened to the order, and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "Lu Xiangsheng, order you to lead 60,000 steps to the Chinese army." ”

Lu Xiangsheng listened to the order, arched his hand and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "Qin Liangyu, I order you to command the middle and rear wing foot and white pole soldiers." ”

Qin Liangyu listened to the order, and said loudly: "The lower official obeys the order." ”

Zhang Bin then said loudly: "Yuan Chonghuan, order you to command the left and right wing border armies, the Wuhan Iron and Steel Vehicle and the Tiger Squat Artillery Car." ”

Yuan Chonghuan listened to the order, and said loudly: "The lower official obeys the order." ”

Houjin likes to use the advantage of strong mobility to break through, which everyone knows quite well, although it is troublesome to move forward in a group, it is important to be safe, so everyone has no opinion.

At this time, Zhang Bin suddenly said sharply: "Fang Zhenghua, I ordered you to lead a thousand brocade guards to supervise the battle in the Chinese army, but there are those who are afraid of the enemy and retreat, and there is no forgiveness for killing!" ”

Hearing this, Fang Zhenghua suddenly raised his head and said sharply: "The lower official obeys the order." ”

This is the most important thing, whoever dares to mess with the formation will have his life, as long as this formation is not chaotic, there is no way to push Huang Taiji directly!
