Chapter 1 Rampant Liaodong War Tartars

Section 11: Severe Punishment

A day later, Dai Shan and Amin led the remnants of the two red flags and the Zhenglan flag to finally return to Liaoyang. At this time, after running all the way, there were only more than 13,000 soldiers and horses left in the two red flags, and the Zhenglan flag was even more unbearable, only more than 4,000 people remained, and the morale of the entire army was low, like a group of beggars fleeing for their lives, lifeless.

At this time, Huang Taiji and Azig stood on the tower of the southern city of Liaoyang, coldly watching the army of the two red flags and the blue flag slowly enter the city, and saw the golden warriors who had lost their armor and looked like withered trees under the city, and their hearts were shocked. Especially Huang Taiji, before this battle, Huang Taiji had already investigated the situation of the Hanwei Army in detail, and knew that this time the Hanwei Army was not good, not only the soldiers in the army were very elite, but also the troops were strong, which can be described as a strong enemy that Dajin has never had! However, Huang Taiji never imagined that Dajin would be defeated so badly and so quickly in the first battle of Qianshan!

Azig said angrily: "The big Belle and the second Belle have lost their troops, and the two red flags and the positive blue flag are wasted this time!" I'd like to see how they explain to Khan Amma! ”

Huang Taiji frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Azigetaiji, I advise you not to say those words that have fallen into the ground, now the situation of my Dajin is very critical, if you can't withstand the onslaught of the Han Wei army, then the results of the Dajin warriors' hard work will be in vain." Moreover, once the Ming Kingdom sees the weak side of my Dajin, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not mobilize heavy troops from the Guannai to Liaodong, and at that time, it will not be as simple as winning or losing the First World War, but a matter of life and death for my Dajin! ”

After hearing this, Azig's face turned pale, and he said: "In this battle, we have obviously captured Shenyang and Liaoyang, annihilated the Qi family army and white pole soldiers of the Ming Kingdom, and we have obviously achieved a great victory!" Why did the situation take a turn for the worse in just a few days? Why! ”

"Because of the Hanwei Army!" Huang Taiji said angrily: "Then Liu Yunwei is a madman, on the battlefield, he will fight to the death with my Dajin warrior at any cost, or even die together!" Damn it! When he was in Salhu, he should have killed Liu Yunwei at any cost! ”

At this time, a white flag armor Lae Zhen came over to report: "Master Qiqi, the two red flags and the blue flag soldiers and horses have been settled, and the big Beile and the second Beile are resting in the yamen of the state capital. ”

Huang Taiji said lightly: "I know." Then he said to Azig, "Azigtaiji, let's go and meet the Great Beyler and the Second Beyl, for Khan Ama left a will before leaving." ”

Azig snorted coldly and walked down the tower without saying a word.

Huang Taiji was not angry, and also walked down the city tower and rode his horse to the yamen of the state capital with Azig.

At this time, Dai Shan and Amin were unkempt and exhausted, sitting in the hall of the yamen of the state capital, each holding a roast chicken and munching on it, and drinking tea from time to time with a teacup, completely ignoring the image of the lord of his own flag, and getting rid of the two starving ghosts.

After a while, Dai Shan and Amin had almost finished eating, and were about to find a place to sleep and recuperate, when they saw Huang Taiji and Azig walking in with gloomy faces.

Dai Shan first asked, "Sibeile, Azigtaiji, can you find that the Hanwei army is chasing after you?" ”

Huang Taiji said lightly: "Don't worry, Da Beile, there are no soldiers and horses of the Hanwei army within a radius of ten miles. ”

Azig sat on the side and sneered, "Is Big Baylor scared out of his guts by the Hanwei Army?" ”

Dai Shan was suddenly furious and shouted loudly: "Ben Beile led the army and the Han Wei army to fight bloodily for several days, and the warriors suffered heavy casualties, but Azig Taiji has been hiding in this Liaoyang City to enjoy himself, what qualifications do you have to say cool things in front of Ben Beile!" ”

Azig was also angry, and bounced up from his chair to argue with Daishan.

Huang Taiji hurriedly stopped the two and said, "Da Belle and Azigtaiji, are you going to start an internal strife?" Are you not afraid that Khan Amma will know and send down the chastise? ”

Amin also kept persuading on the side, and Daishan and Azig sat down indignantly.

Seeing this, Huang Taiji also sat down, took a sip of the teacup, and then said: "Big Baylor, Second Baylor, if you don't mind, please tell us about the battle of Qianshan, okay?" ”

Daishan and Amin glanced at each other, and then asked at the same time, "What does the four Baylors mean?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything." Huang Taiji sneered and said: "Just yesterday, Khan Ama suddenly led the 15,000 troops of the Zhenghuang Banner to Liaoyang, saying that the scouts found traces of the Hanwei army twelve miles north of the camp of the Two Red Flags and the Two Blue Banners. ”

Dai Shan and Amin's faces suddenly changed, and they asked, "How many people?" ”

"At least more than 10,000 people!"

Amin muttered: "It seems that the blue flag is also more auspicious." ”

Huang Taiji ignored Amin and continued: "Now, can Big Baylor and Second Baylor tell me about the battle?" ”

Dai Shan and Amin glanced at each other, and then explained in detail how they fought with the Changshui camp and the trapped camp. When Huang Taiji and Azig heard that Liu Yunwei was not only strong, but also able to outwit them with tricks, their hearts were heavy, and they were full of worries about the future war.

Huang Taiji was silent for a while, and then said: "Khan Ama ordered me and Azigetaiji to guard Liaoyang City, and once we found that the soldiers and horses of the two red flags and the two blue flags had returned, we would hand over this will to the Great Beyler, the Second Beyler, and the Third Beyler. Now it is estimated that the third Baylor will not be able to receive the order, so the big Baylor and the second Baylor will take the order. ”

Daishan and Amin hurriedly knelt down, sweat dripping from their heads.

Huang Taiji slowly stood up and said: "Your Majesty the Dajin Emperor, the wise Khan decreed: The two red flag banner lord Dai Shan, the blue flag lord Amin, and the blue flag banner master Mang Gurtai are not in a good position, and immediately lead the troops and horses back to Hetuala to rest and recuperate, and wait for my further will!" ”

Daishan and Amin hurriedly thanked him, then stood up and stood in place, his face cloudy.

Huang Taiji said with a smile: "Da Beile and Second Beile can rest assured to lead the troops back to Xingjing, Liaoyang is guarded by me and Azigetaiji, and there is no mistake!" It's just that the two of you have to be ready, in this battle, the two red flags and the two blue flags will lose the soldiers and generals, and fall into my Dajin national prestige and military prestige, presumably Khan Ama will be furious, Da Belle and Erbeile go back and reflect on it, and wait for Khan Amma's severe punishment. ”

After saying that, Huang Taiji laughed and went out, and Azig left after that. Only Daishan and Amin were left in the lobby, and they still looked like they wanted to cry without tears.

"Big Baylor, what are we going to do?"

Dai Shan looked panicked and said, "What else can I do?" Go back to Xingjing and wait for Khan Ama to fall. ”

At the same time, twenty miles south of Liaoyang, Mang Gurtai was leading more than 5,000 remnants of the Blue Banner Army to flee all the way north, while the 5,000 Dragon Cavalry led by Liu Yunwei were chasing after him two miles away.

After fleeing in the middle of the night, the blue-flaged Jiannu has completely lost its fighting spirit, like a large group of lost dogs, running non-stop without stopping, and even many Jiannu's war horses were run to death, together with the Jiannu soldiers on horseback, they fell to the ground together, and then they were trampled alive by their companions who were bent on fleeing for their lives.

Mang Gurtai looked at the tragic situation of the warriors behind him, and wanted to stop for a while, rest for a while before continuing to flee for his life. Just as he was about to give the order, Mang Gurtai heard the desperate sound of a horn from behind.

"Woo~~~~"

Immediately afterwards, thousands of Ming Iron Cavalry appeared in the field of vision of the Blue Banner Jiannu, and immediately frightened these routs into, urine, and screaming.

"Run! The Hanwei Army is coming! ”

"Shaman, save me."

"Run!"

Mang Gurtai looked at the warriors who fled north, and his heart was full of despair: "When did the warriors of Dajin also flee from the Ming army?" Could it be that my Daikin's fortunes are beginning to decline? Thinking of this, Mang Gurtai couldn't help but shiver.

Immediately, Mang Gurtai was surrounded by the fleeing crowd and fled north, with no other choice. Those Jiannu who fled more slowly were thrown far away by the army in the blink of an eye, and then they were slaughtered by the dragon horse that killed later.

The bloody slaughter behind him stimulated the nerves of the Blue Flag Jiannu even more, at this moment, no one had the courage to turn over to face the battle, and there was only one thought in everyone's hearts, that is, to run away and leave their companions behind!

Suddenly, a bright yellow banner appeared in front of the defeated army with a blue flag, and then an army of 15,000 positive yellow flags appeared on the hill in front, and a bright yellow umbrella cover stood in the middle of the large array, and it turned out to be Nurhachi who came to the battlefield in person.

Mang Gurtai and all the blue-flag-inlaid Jiannu were suddenly pleasantly surprised, and they all used their last bit of strength to rush forward, gathering along the left side of the Zhenghuang Flag array.

Liu Yunwei also saw the Zhenghuang Banner army at this time, and hurriedly stopped the formation of the Long Xiang Iron Cavalry, and then immediately reorganized the formation.

On the hill, Nurha Chi looked coldly at the dragon horse who was reorganizing the formation, his eyes were full of tyranny, and said to Mang Gurtai who was kneeling beside him: "How many warriors have been lost in this battle with the blue flag? ”

"Qi, Qiyu Khan Amma, the blue flag has lost a total of more than 6,000 warriors."

"Humph!" Nurhachi glared at Mang Gurtai fiercely, and said: "You, Daishan, and Amin are all generals in the army, and the 40,000 army of the four banners in the first battle of Qianshan was defeated by the 30,000 Hanwei army in front of you, and the army was lost by more than half, you did a good thing!" ”

"The son is guilty, please Khan Ama to punish him."

Nurhachi looked at the dragon horse in the distance again, and said: "Liu Yunwei has completed his wings, and I am afraid that my Dajin will not have a good time in the future." ”

After speaking, Nurhachi said to Mang Gurtai again: "As for you, immediately return to Xingjing with the remnants of the blue flag to wait for punishment!" ”

Mang Gurtai kowtowed in despair and thanked him, and then led the army away.

Liu Yunwei saw from afar that the Blue Banner Jiannu was retreating towards the north, thinking that Nurhachi wanted to retreat without a fight, he was immediately furious, and shouted loudly in front of the battle: "The slave chief is leaving!" Don't die today! ”
