Chapter 826: Gather your fist and accumulate strength

As it was getting dark, and the tentative attack was making no progress, Dolroll immediately called a halt to it, lest it fail miserably and hurt the morale of the army.

At this time, the Qing army first defeated Zhu Cihong, and then defeated Jiang Xiang, and the morale of the army was restored, which can be said to be an extremely difficult thing, and Dolgon had to maintain this state.

The current Qing army is like a heavy punch, knocking down Jiang Xiang, the arm has been straightened, there is no impact, if you want to defeat the Wei army, you have to withdraw your fist, charge a punch, and hit again.

Under Dolgon's order, the Qing army retreated and set up camp, and the cavalry showed off their might and piled up the corpses of Datong Town three miles away from the Wei army, showing their great martial arts.

This made the corners of Gao Yihuan's mouth twitch, and the soldiers around him were also a little angry, but they didn't dare to act rashly, watching the Qing army leave arrogantly.

When the main force of the Qing army was encamped, in the wilderness, the cavalry of the Wei army and the scouts of the Qing army constantly engaged in small-scale battles.

This battle is extremely important to Dolgon, Gao Yihuan was defeated, retreated to Guanzhong, raised Rui for a few years, and could make a comeback, if he failed, then the Great Qing Kingdom would be almost over.

Therefore, for this battle, Dolgon did not dare to be sloppy, the Qing Dynasty could not afford to lose, and he could not afford to lose, so he had to go all out.

At this time, the Qing scouts wanted to reconnoiter the nearby terrain in order to occupy a favorable position tomorrow to observe whether the Wei army hid other soldiers and horses nearby, while the Wei army horse army blocked the Qing scouts' exploration, and the rangers on both sides galloped around within a radius of dozens of miles to carry out large-scale cavalry sentry battles.

In the past, the Wei army's horse army definitely did not have such strength, but after the integration of the Guanning army and many Mongols, the Wei army's horse army has been qualitatively improved.

For the Central Plains Dynasty, Yanyun and Longyou are both very important places, as long as they can occupy this place in history, the Central Plains Dynasty has enough horses, it is enough to fight against the northern nomads.

The reason why the Northern Song Dynasty was passive was that it did not occupy two pieces of land, leaving huge hidden dangers from the beginning.

The Western Wei Dynasty now controls Longyou, has a source of war horses, and has feudal soldiers who are good at riding and shooting, and the cavalry combat power has been greatly improved, and can compete with the cavalry of the Qing army.

On this expedition to Hedong, Wu Sangui, who was under house arrest, also went to the court, expressing his hope to be able to contribute to the Western Wei State, and was willing to be the pawn of the tall king, taking the lead in the charge, in order to wash away the shame on his body, so as to be a man again.

Gao Yihuan was very emotional and comfortable after watching it, and enjoyed a character like Wu Sangui begging him, but Gao Yihuan still ruthlessly rejected him and asked him to stay in Wang Jing honestly, saying that he was not needed now.

In fact, Wu Sangui is indeed a fierce general, if he can really use it, he may be able to make some contributions to the Western Wei Kingdom, Gao Yihuan has not thought about using him, but now is obviously not the time, Gao Yihuan's prestige has not yet reached the height of the sky.

If one day Gao Yihuan is powerful and majestic, he surpasses Zhu Di and becomes the emperor, he will have the confidence to control people like Wu Sangui, and now the prestige of King Gao is obviously not enough, and he is already very merciful if he is killed by a cup of poisonous wine.

At this time, Gao Yihuan led a team of cavalry, stationed on a hillside, looked at the camp of the Qing army with a clairvoyant mirror, and saw that the camp was crowded, and the horses were fast outside the camp, and the camp was in order, and the soldiers and horses were very strong, which made him frown slightly.

"Dingguo's analysis is good, Dolgon's troops are sharp, and once this king retreats, it is really possible to be defeated by him." Gao Yihuan said in a deep voice.

Originally, Gao Yihuan wanted Jiang Xiang to wear down the spirit of the Qing army, and then resist step by step, stretch the formation of the Qing army, and finally attack on both wings and cut the Qing army in half.

Now, the situation has changed, the Qing army is in full swing, and Dolgon punches him, he does not resist, but retreats, and is easily knocked down by a punch.

At that time, the bottom of the pocket will be directly smashed by the Qing army, and the Wei army will not be able to hold the Qing army, and it will be over.

Gao Yihuan looked at it, and then pulled the reins of the horse, "Let's go, let's go back to the camp to discuss!" ”

On the other side, Dolgon did not stay in the camp, but under the escort of nearly a thousand cavalry, he began to check the terrain near Xinkou and peek into the camp of the Wei army in order to make a plan for the attack.

Dolgon's party stood on the hillside, the gloomy eagle's gaze scanning the wilderness in the distance, the two sides were in a fierce battle, from time to time someone died, the corpse fell from the horse, and the ownerless horse wandered in the afterglow of the setting sun, which was extremely desolate and striking.

At this time, Bolo looked at the battlefield, the frontal battle line was very wide, more than ten miles, all of them were undulating low hills, "Regent, Xinkou is located in the west of Wutai Mountain, east of Yunzhong Mountain, the middle of the terrain is low, and the sides are high. This is the main road leading to Taiyuan in the north of Jin, as long as the army breaks through the Wei army, it is the plain. ”

Dolgon scanned the battlefield, "Although the cavalry is limited here, the front is wide, and the tall barbarians are not easy to defend, so it is not difficult to defeat him!" ”

As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Did the two wings find the ambush soldiers of the Wei thief?" ”

The terrain like Xinkou is the most suitable for ambushes, and Gao Yihuan arrived first, so it is impossible not to ambush soldiers and horses on both wings.

At this time, a group of Qing army scouts galloped over, turned over and dismounted, "Qiyu Regent, the scouts are east of Xinkou and have found traces of the Wei army." The opponent's scouts are desperately resisting, not letting our army scouts get closer, and they can't judge the opponent's strength for the time being! ”

Dolgon's eyes narrowed, and he waved his hand, "Keep exploring!" ”

The scout got on his horse and galloped away, and in a short time he rode over again to report, "Report, Regent!" A large Wei army has been found in the Yunzhong Mountains! ”

Bolo waved his hand, signaled the scout to retreat, and then said, "The regent is wise, and the high barbarian has indeed set up ambushes on both flanks. ”

The two Wei armies were originally dozens of miles away, but Gao Yihuan got the report of the fast horse, and after Jiang Xiang abandoned the pass, he immediately sent someone to give an order to let the left and right wings move closer to Xinkou.

Dolgon's troops are in full swing, and if the Qing army throws a punch with all its might, the Wei army in front may not be able to withstand it, so it is necessary to let the two wings come out in advance to contain the strength of the Qing army, so that Dolgon cannot punch with all his strength.

Dolgon narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you have on the left and right wings?" ”

Bolo immediately understood, "What the regent means is that it is a bit risky to defend the two flanks and penetrate the central army." ”

Dolgon glanced at Bolo approvingly, "The terrain of Xinkou is high on both sides and low in the middle, attacking the two wings is considered a back attack, and our army is dominated by cavalry, and the two wings are not suitable for attacking!" This king chooses the front, as long as he breaks through the block, the army can rush into the plain and control Jinzhong. At that time, after sending troops and horses to attack Guguan, we will be able to open up the connection with Beizhi, and the grain will not need to be transported through the north of Jin, and the grain routes of the soldiers and horses on both wings of the Wei army will be cut off by us, and it will not be difficult to eliminate them. ”

Bolo nodded, "If the regent is determined, the wings must be held. ”

Shi Tingzhu said: "Regent, there is an old fort in the east, which can be used as the support of the left wing. ”

Dolgon immediately pulled the reins of his horse, "Go, look!" ”
