Chapter 436: Drag the Ming Dynasty into the water
Xiangcheng, Yuncheng and Xiping are not far from each other, and they are three adjacent counties.
At this distance, the fast horse gallops, and it can be reached in more than a day.
On the third watch day, in the Qing army camp outside Xiangcheng, Duoduo, who was neatly draped, turned over his horse, but Kong Youde stepped forward and hurriedly grabbed the reins of his horse, "Lord, it's so late, let's lead the people and horses over!" ”
But Duoduo had a frosty face, "You go away!" Gao Manzi appeared in Runan, and the king had to rush to Yuncheng overnight. ”
"Man Dahai just said that he met Gao Manzi, he has an army of 30,000 people, and he is not a pig, as long as he forms a formation to defend himself, he will ensure that Gao Manzi will not be able to fight for a few days. It's not too late for the prince to leave tomorrow! Shang Kexi also persuaded on the side.
Duoduo didn't listen, he was apprehensive about Gao Yihuan's cunning, and last time he was secretly Chen Cang by his Ming Xiu plank road, which not only rescued the intruders in Luoyang, but also cut off his food supply.
If he hadn't been decisive enough, the strong man would have broken his wrist, maybe he would have been planted in Gao Yihuan's hands.
As soon as Duoduo heard that Man Dahai had met Gao Yihuan, he felt a little uneasy, worried that Man Dahai would be pitted.
Duoduo snatched the reins of the horse and said coldly: "Gao Manzi is not in Wuguan, but he ran to Runan, he must have held back some bad idea." This guy is extremely cunning, Man Dahai may not be his opponent, and this king must rush to Yuncheng overnight in order to coordinate the battle. ”
Seeing that Duoduo had made up his mind and everyone was not insisting, Kong Youde asked, "Lord Wang, what about Xiangcheng here?" ”
Duoduo thought for a while, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Since Gao Yihuan is in Runan, Xiangcheng's side can temporarily stop attacking and turn into defense. Early tomorrow morning, King Zhishun will lead 20,000 people to continue to monitor Xiangcheng, and King Gongshun and King Huaishun will order 20,000 horses and horses to come to Yuncheng to meet this king. ”
Duoduo originally thought that Gao Yihuan was in Wuguan, the main force of Wei Wu's army was in Nanyang, and there were not many soldiers and horses in Runing, which was not enough to threaten his flank, and it was enough to hand it over to Mandahai, but now that Gao Yihuan appeared in Runing, the situation changed.
Now that Nanyang and Runing's Wei Wu army are horns against each other, Duoduo attacks Nanyang, Runing's Wei Wu army can threaten his flank, and Duoduo attacks Runing, Nanyang's men and horses can also harass him.
Gao Yihuan's appearance in Runing made Duoduo uneasy, worried that Mandahai would suffer a loss, and Gao Yihuan would attack his flank, so he prepared to rush to Yuncheng overnight.
At this time, King Sanshun listened to Duoduo's instructions, glanced at each other, and could only salute, "Oh, we will obey the orders of the prince!" ”
Duoduo was so anxious that he said no more, and as soon as he pulled the reins of his horse, he galloped out.
Behind him, nearly 20,000 horses, carrying torches, rushed out of the camp.
The wilderness outside Yuncheng was covered with a layer of snow, and as far as the eye could see, it was white.
The moonlight shone on the snow, making the night brighter, so that the soldiers in the city had a good view.
In the night, there were many torches on the city, and groups of soldiers patrolled back and forth on the wall, looking tense and tight.
Suddenly, in the silence of the night, a hurried sound of horses' hooves was heard, which aroused the vigilance of the soldiers, and they looked up and saw a large number of men and horses appear in the wilderness north of Yuncheng.
Duoduo rode to the city, but the gate of the city was closed, and nearly 100 Qing troops were waiting for it, looking nervously at the city.
Duoduo stepped forward next to him, feeling that the atmosphere was not right, he stood in front of the city gate, and shouted: "King Yu is also here, don't open the door quickly!" ”
After being ambushed in Xiping, Mandahai sent his men and horses to Xiangcheng to report to Duoduo, and when the messenger passed through Yuncheng, the men and horses in the city knew that there would be a great battle in the south.
Bolo was shocked, and while letting people investigate, he asked less than a thousand Qing troops in the city to strengthen the defense.
When it was dark, the messengers sent back the news that the army had been defeated, and soon after, the defeated army came to the city in twos and threes, and they testified to the defeat of the Mandahai Sea.
Bolo was so shocked that he was in a cold sweat behind his back, and while he asked people to throw down some food and quilts for the rout outside the city, he was about to send someone to report to Dord.
I didn't think that he was about to arrange people, so he heard a report that a large group of men and horses came from the north.
The front line was defeated, Bolo was worried about Gao Yi Huan deceiving the city, and the defeated army did not dare to enter the city, and now after listening to the shouts below, he naturally did not dare to open the door rashly, and hurriedly stood on the wall and shouted down: "Who are you?" Where is the prince? ”
When the general heard this, he suddenly became angry, and rode on his horse, but he heard that it was Bolo's voice.
Duoduo grimaced, urged the horse to come out of the formation, and raised his head with a reprimand, "Bolo, what are you doing?" ”
When Bolo heard the voice, it was Duoduo, and he was shocked, and he explained with a busy face: "Lord Wang, Mandahai has been defeated, and I am afraid that the high barbarians will cheat the city, so I should be cautious!" ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and scolded his subordinates, "Don't open the door for Prince Yu yet!" ”
"What? What about the defeat of Mandahai? When Duoduo heard his words, his face was full of consternation, and his body shook on the horse's back, almost falling off the horse~
Early in the morning, outside the Wei Wu military camp, Gao Yihuan was neatly draped, looking at a team of fast horses with the heads of the Manda Sea, holding a few Tartars, as well as captured Tartar flags and other things, galloping towards the southeast.
Although he killed Mandahai and destroyed nearly 30,000 horses of the Qing army, Duoduo's strength was still stronger than him.
Now the Tartars in Guanzhong have not made a move, and if they cooperate with Duoduo, Gao Yihuan's situation is still very dangerous.
At this time, Gao Yihuan's role in forcing the Ming Dynasty Zhao'an was revealed, and he was ready to pull the Ming Dynasty into the water.
He wrote a letter and asked people to send the head of Man Dahai to Nanjing.
His move can be said to be quite insidious, Nanjing is not at war with the Manchus, and the Donglin Party and Ma Ruan don't want to seek peace?
Gao Yihuan, as an official of the Ming Dynasty, sent them the head of a Manchu shell in the past, which is equivalent to yellow mud smeared on the crotch of the Nanjing court, not shit is also shit, see how the turtle grandchildren still seek peace.
Before the war, Gao Yihuan sent Wang Shicong to Nanjing, but so far Nanjing still has no intention of sending troops to help him.
Gao Yihuan's losses in this battle were not small, if it weren't for Liu Heizi attracting the main force of the Tartars, Wei Wujun was afraid that he would have killed and injured 10,000 people.
The Qing army was fierce and ruthless, completely let Gao Yihuan carry it, he thought he couldn't bear it, so he had to pull the Ming Dynasty into the water.
Previously, the Ming Dynasty may still have the intention of sacrificing him to seek peace, but now that the head of Man Dahai was sent to Nanjing, Gao Yihuan stretched out again, saying that he was on the order of Nanjing to fight against the Tartars, so that the Tartars thought that the Ming Dynasty had changed its strategy, and the two sides would be suspicious.
The Ming Dynasty will be worried that the Qing army will retaliate, and the Qing army will wonder whether the Ming army in Xuzhou will send troops, so that Gao Yihuan can take a breath.
Donglin and Ma Ruan saw that he killed Man Dahai, even if they didn't help him, they should send troops to garrison, and as long as the Ming Dynasty's soldiers and horses moved, the Tartars would inevitably feel the pressure, and Gao Yihuan would be relieved.
Gao Yihuan didn't sleep all night, he was dealing with the aftermath of the war, he personally watched Gao Chengxun and several cavalry go away, so he was ready to mobilize men and horses, quickly go north, to recapture Yuncheng, so as to threaten Duoduo's flank, so that Duoduo did not dare to continue to attack Nanyang.
At this time, Zhao Daxuan walked over with a waist knife, "Dashuai, Liu Heizi asked Dashuai to go first, his people and horses are in chaos, and it will be difficult to recover for a while, and it is estimated that he will not be able to leave today." ”
Gao Yihuan frowned, "How many people did Liu Heizi lose?" ”
"I don't know, I see that Liu Heizi's face is very dark, and I estimate that at least two battalions of men and horses have been disabled." Zhao Daxian licked his lips and said.
Gao Yihuan groaned for a while, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, take me over to have a look~"
