Chapter 561, Retreat
"Brother Fourteen," Duoduo suddenly urged him to take half a step forward, and said loudly side by side with Azig, "Brother Fourteen, you unfortunately fell into the hands of the Nanban, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, you have to do this now to save your life, and the brothers also understand, and they will not blame you for this." Fourteenth brother, don't worry, my brother will definitely save you back. ”
After saying this, Dordor gently tugged on Azig's arm again, and Azig immediately understood what Dodor meant. In this kind of place, in front of so many soldiers, arguing with Dolgon about these things, no matter what the outcome of the argument is, it will lose the face of the Aixin Jueluo family and damage the morale of the Qing army.
"I'm afraid that those Nanban are watching us like a monkey show at this time." Azig couldn't help but think in frustration. At the same time, he also spoke: "Old Fourteen, don't worry, we will definitely be able to rescue you!" With that, without waiting for Dorgon to speak, he turned his horse's head and withdrew into the formation with Dorgon .
Seeing Azig and Dordor retreating, Dorgon hurriedly shouted, "Azig and Dordor brothers, don't be obsessed! Daming Shengshang is lenient, as long as he repents, there is still time, but don't go all the way to the dark! ”
At this point, however, both Azig and Dordor ignored his cries and continued to retreat without looking back. Dolgon shouted again: "I also know that Huang Taiji is keeping an eye on it, two brothers are difficult to do, two brothers, take care!" ”
This sentence is quite vicious, and it can be regarded as openly sowing discord. However, both Azig and Dordor knew that the more they talked, the worse it would be, so they ignored him and just went.
Dorgon sighed and shouted at the army, "You are all my brothers with the White Flags. The fort of this Niuzhuang Fort is strong and impregnable, and as many people as there are people who come, how many people have to die in it! We can't beat it! Huang Taiji harbored evil intentions and let us attack Niuzhuang Fort with two white flags, just to follow the hands of the Ming Dynasty and destroy us! You have to be careful! ”
Azig had already walked a long way, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. Duoduo hurriedly grabbed his arm and said: "Twelfth brother, forget it, it's not easy for the fourteenth brother, now that the Ming army is so cruel, if not, can he save his head?" I'm afraid I've been put on the pole. Besides, do you think Brother Fourteen really believes that we can save him? He was actually worried that we would really attack Niuzhuang Fort, and that would be the ...... Brother Fourteen is not bad. ”
Dorgon shouted a few more times, but no one answered him. He turned his head to look at the captain in the cavalry team, and when he saw that he nodded slightly, he shouted: "The number of Jian Xuan Qi is exhausted, you must imagine more for yourself, don't perish with the Xuan Chief!" Then he turned his horse's head and, with the rest of the cavalry, retreated towards Niuzhuang Fort.
……
"Shizi, you let Dolgon go to the scolding array, although it is a big blow to Jianxin's momentum, but it seems that Jianshen will not come up today to die." Gu Jiang shook his head regretfully and said, "It's much more convenient to kill Jianxuan in a defensive battle than in a field battle." ”
Zheng Sen shook his head and said, "Most of the time, defense is a more efficient way of fighting than offense. But defense alone cannot win a war. We were able to hold on to our strongholds, but in the final analysis, we were able to defeat them in the field. Otherwise, how could Zu Dashou lose Dalinghe and Jinzhou in the first place? Cao Di said: "Husband fights, courage also." In addition to being well-trained and well-equipped, the reason why Jian Yan had won more and lost less before was that their previous series of victories, especially the prestige of the victory in the Great War, made their morale high when they fought with the officers and soldiers, but the morale of the officers and soldiers was low, and this field battle could not be fought. Nowadays, Jianyan's skills in both defending and besieging cities are far inferior to those of our army. Even in the field, it is not as good as our army. If coupled with the low morale, the field battle will become more and more unfought, and in this way, the demise of Jianshen will also be at hand. So it's actually very good to be able to directly hit the morale of Jianxin. Besides, after the battle in front, where did Jianxuan still have the courage to really come up and besiege again? Most of the time it's just for show, and we can't expect to rely on defensive warfare to kill more soldiers. ”
"I'm afraid that's the case." Gu Jiang nodded, and asked again, "Shizi, do you really plan to send that Dolgon into the palace?" This person is so brazen, and he has some knowledge, I am afraid that he will not be a Wang Zhi in the future. ”
"He can't be Wang Zhi." Zheng Sen shook his head.
There were two famous Wang Zhi in the Ming Dynasty, one was the leader of the Japanese Bandits, and the other Wang Zhi was the governor and eunuch of the Xichang during the Chenghua period. This person was originally a descendant of the Yao people in the Datengxia Rebellion, and he was younger than three years old in Chenghua (1467). Tong Zheng was captured and put into the palace. Judging from the status of captives, they are a bit like Dolgon today. To be honest, although Wang Zhi has some domineering points, his credit is not really small, in fact, he is really not a traitor, but in today's Ming Dynasty literati, eunuchs are all bad things, which is almost a kind of political correctness, and the domineering Wang Zhi naturally does not get much praise.
"This is also the case, at this time, and at that time. Even if he wants to do something bad, he doesn't have the power to do it. Gu Jiang also nodded.
The so-called this time is also that time, which means that the current Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty during the Chenghua period are completely different things. During the Chenghua period, the emperor had real power in his hands and was the real Son of Heaven; And today's Hongguang Emperor is more like Zhou Tianzi in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Even Gu Jiang, who was very familiar with Zheng Sen's theories, knew that Zheng Sen actually intended to make Emperor Hongguang a symbolic son of Zhou. If this is according to the thinking of ordinary people who read dead books, Zheng Sen's practices are obviously very rebellious. But in fact, this kind of hypocrisy is very much in line with the interests of scholars and doctors. Because if the emperor is indifferent, the scholars below can do whatever they want. As for the Zheng family, their main interests were maritime trade and colonization, and the conflict of interests with the scholars was very limited. Even, with them, with the way to colonize abroad, the scholars and doctors can work harder when they are squeezing the people, without worrying about their backlash. Because people who can't survive anymore will choose to emigrate overseas instead of rebelling. Therefore, although there are often contradictions between scholars and doctors because of their own interests, including Gu Jiang, everyone now thinks that to be the emperor, he should hand over all the major affairs of the world to the virtuous Yousi, and it is enough to live in the throne and be a Taoist leader. Huang Zongxi of Donglin even made a lot of nonsense, saying that the king was "the great evil of the world" and demanded that the king's power should be strictly restricted. And the Zheng family is full of praise.
By this time, the cavalry that had gone out had returned to their positions. Once inside the castle, the cavalry captain handed over Dorgon to two guards and left with the rest of the cavalry. At this time, the Qing army also began to act.
The Qing army was the first to shell, but this time they placed the artillery far away and scattered. Obviously, this is more for defensive reasons. The Qing artillery bombardment was ineffective, because they placed their cannons so far away that many shells did not even reach the first trench.
After two rounds of shelling, some cavalry rushed up. Their ranks were also quite spread out - apparently to reduce casualties in the event of shelling, rather than for ease of operation. The cavalry simply swept over a great distance and made a round of senseless throws with cavalry bows. (The arrows they shot were almost a hundred paces away from the first trench) and then retreated.
And this is actually the last attack on the fortress of Niuzhuang Fort on the day of the Manchu Qing in this time and space, and even until the Manchu Qing Dynasty became a historical term. Soon after the cavalry retreated, the Qing army began to retreat, and they set fire to their large camp to block possible pursuers, and their cavalry was also assigned to serve as a rearguard force, and the model army lacking cavalry did not in fact carry out a large-scale pursuit, and soon the banner of Huang Taiji disappeared from everyone's sight.
