Chapter 135: The Failure of the Winter Offensive

On weekdays, a white armor can be said to be easy to deal with three or five Ming troops who did not take flint firearms. But now more than 100 white armor against more than 200 Ming troops with spears, broadswords and arquebuses, there is no obvious one-sided situation, and the Ming army still has time to send a signal. This is because the Houjin soldiers only think about how to escape, and their momentum will naturally weaken.

Liu Xingzhi brought more than 200 Ming troops, these were the elites he specially transferred, and their addition made the Houjin soldiers quickly unable to resist. Liu Xingzhi shouted next to him: "Only catch Huang Taiji, and don't care about the rest." ”

If Huang Taiji is arrested, the fate of these white armors will be very miserable, so these words should be useless. However, the human heart is sometimes really hard to say. The white armor knew that if they broke Huang Taiji, they would be reduced to slaves or even killed by the Khan King, but now when they heard Liu Xingzhi's words, they were still inevitably moved.

Huang Taiji recognized Liu Xingzhi, and he said with a smile: "You are Aita's younger brother, I voluntarily restrain my hands, are you really willing to let go of my subordinates?" ”

Liu Xingzhi knew that talking to him at this time was very likely to fall for his trick, so he didn't pay attention to him at all, but kept shouting: "Only catch Huang Taiji, and don't care about the rest." While urging his men to attack from three sides, leaving a small opening for the white armor to escape.

Seeing that he ignored him, Huang Taiji was not in a hurry, but said: "If you let us go, I will send a large amount of gold and silver to thank you." And if you are willing to return to Dajin, not only will I not blame you, but I will also promote you to the rank of officer, and make you the chief soldier, so that you will not have to stoop to the tower of love. ”

Liu Xingzhi shook his hand, and a firework exploded in the air. He shouted, "Our army is coming, and those who want to flee should flee quickly." ”

Liu Xingzhi ignored these people at all, which was tantamount to encouraging the white armor who had not yet escaped, to flee like those people, and the Ming army would not pursue.

Not far away, the Ming army's shout: "Grab the little slave chieftain, don't let Huang Taiji escape." "The voice is neat, it seems that there are quite a few people. The white armor who were already at a disadvantage were even more worried, and more people were aiming at that small opening, where there was freedom, and it was very likely that they would lose their lives if they stayed here, which was really embarrassing.

More Ming troops pounced, and more people in the white armor still chose to save their lives temporarily, and more and more people slipped out of that small opening. Liu Xingzhi stared at Huang Taiji deadly, as long as he didn't move, the Ming army didn't care about the Houjin soldiers who ran out.

Chen Tai said: "Master, the slave is going to rush and kill, you take the opportunity to stand out." ”

Huang Taiji shook his head and said: "It's useless, the current comparison of troops and the high level of morale have made it impossible for us to escape, you lead the people to go first, they won't stop it." ”

Chen Tai hurriedly said: "Master, the slave will not abandon you, please go with the master." ”

At this time, Liu Xingzhi shouted: "There is a reward for catching Huang Taiji to avoid death!" This gives a new choice to some Houjin soldiers who want to flee for their lives and are afraid of going back to be punished, especially Houjin soldiers who have no relatives at home, where to be a soldier is not a soldier, in a strong army, isn't it easier to make meritorious contributions and be promoted?

Huang Taiji looked at the several malicious glances around him, knowing that it was impossible to escape today, and Chen Tai did not dare to escape alone, so he had to shout to Liu Xingzhi: "I am willing to surrender, please don't embarrass my subordinates." ”

Liu Xingzhi said with a smile: "Please put down your weapon and come out by yourself, don't think about what to do with your brains, I know Sibeile, but the fire gun doesn't recognize you." ”

Huang Taiji said that he would surrender, and he said to Chen Tai: "If you don't want to go by yourself, then surrender with me, the Ming army should not kill us." ”

After speaking, he didn't care about Chen Tai, dismounted and abandoned the knife, and walked towards Liu Xingzhi. With a wave of Liu Xingzhi's hand, several Ming soldiers stepped forward and tied up Huang Taiji. Liu Xingzhi said: "If you want to go first, you won't go, and now you can't leave if you want to, either surrender or die." ”

In fact, for the Houjin soldiers, being caught by the Ming army will not be worse than fleeing back alone, now that the master has surrendered, it is very safe to surrender by himself, so when Huang Taiji came out, most of the Houjin soldiers had stopped resisting. When Huang Taiji was tied up, all the Houjin soldiers threw away their weapons and surrendered.

Liu Xingzhi was overjoyed in his heart, such a great credit actually fell on his head, and now the status of the Liu family in the Ming army can be said to be on a higher level. He used more than 100 people to protect Huang Taiji and carefully walked towards Haizhou.

The rest of the Houjin soldiers were escorted by their subordinates to follow behind, and soon the group came to the camp of the Guards, and Liu Xingzhi excitedly escorted Huang Taiji to the big tent of the first division and asked people to report the news.

Lu Xiangsheng and Cao Wenzhao greeted them from the tent. Lu Xiangsheng hugged his fists and said: "Congratulations to General Liu for his great achievements." ”

Liu Xingzhi smiled from ear to ear, and said again and again: "It's the division commander who has good guidance, and the soldiers use their lives, and the small ones are just lucky." ”

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Huang Taiji and said, "Sibeile has a good complexion. My saint would like to invite Sibeile Yu Jingshi and his party to discuss how to recruit and accept the judgment. I don't think Four Baylor will refuse. ”

Huang Taiji smiled and said, "Master Lu, do you think I can refuse?" ”

Cao Wenzhao said murderously: "Of course you can refuse. Those who refused to go to Jingshi were the only ones who could go. ”

Huang Taiji smiled: "The ants are still stealing, I still want to go to Beijing in its entirety." ”

Lu Xiangsheng felt that this Huang Taiji was not simple, and he was glad that he finally caught him. He asked Huang Taiji to take him down, and then sent troops into the city overnight to guard the four gates of Haizhou.

At dawn the next day, the Ming army began to clean the three city gates of Haizhou, and ordered the captives of the Houjin soldiers to clear the earth and stones stuffed in the city gates, and repaired the city walls on the north side.

Lu Xiangsheng sent a cavalry division to escort Huang Taiji to Yaozhou, and then sent it by boat to Juehua Island by water. The General Staff asked Huang Taiji about some of the situation of Hou Jin, but Huang Taiji smiled and did not answer, so the General Staff had to send him directly to Jingshi, and the emperor decided how to deal with it.

Nurhachi's siege of Xin'anbao could not continue, and under the shelling of the Ming army, he finally had to retreat to Jiumaji Fort, and then the army returned to Liaoyang City.

After Mao Wenlong occupied Yunyang Fort, the Ming army formed a new first-line fortress group in Liaodong with Xin'an Fort, Yunyang Fort, Kuandian Fort, etc. And the 1st Division of Liaonan moved the focus of defense to Haizhou.

Four years after the Apocalypse, the attack painstakingly organized by Jin not only did not achieve any results, but lost Haizhou, Xin'anbao, Yunyang Fort, and lost a large number of Houjin soldiers, especially Huang Taiji at the end of the Four Great Baylors was captured by the Ming army, which marked the complete failure of Houjin's winter offensive.
