Chapter 1190: Battle of the Three Kings (13)

Meng Qiaofang saw that Dolgon's body was trembling, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth as he trembled, he couldn't help but be shocked, stood up and exclaimed, "Regent, this is ~"

Lou Qin was also frightened, panicked and didn't know what to do, so he could only give Dolgon a hard back.

Dolgon raised his hand to stop his movements, then covered his chest with one hand, coughing up blood, and said forcefully: "Ben ~ This king, it's okay!" ”

Meng Qiaofang was stunned for a while, and she vomited blood, is it okay? He doesn't look like he's fine!

Shouldn't this be called a military doctor? However, the Jinqing coalition army was already unstable, and at this time, it was rumored that Dolgon was coughing up blood again, and I am afraid that the army's heart would be even more restless.

For a while, Meng Qiaofang didn't know what to do, and Dolgon wiped the blood on his mouth, but took the initiative to speak: "Don't hide it from King Yongping, this king has been unwell, just heard that King Yongping was going to withdraw from the army, and Lou Qin told him that the salt in the camp had been exhausted, and the food was less than ten days, so this king would be in a hurry!" ”

Meng Qiaofang had some doubts in his heart, there was not enough food and grass in the camp, shouldn't Dolgon already know? How could he be so anxious that he vomited blood after hearing this, but Dolgon said that he had heard him withdraw from the army, and coupled with the lack of food, grass and salt, there was some possibility.

Meng Qiaofang sighed, "The regent is not feeling well, please rest first, and I will come back tomorrow!" ”

With that, he was about to leave, but Dorgon clutched his chest and said, "Wait! ”

Meng Qiaofang turned around, and Dolgon continued: "The grain and grass in the camp are about to run out, and this king is also ready to retreat, but I hope that King Yongping can return to Luoyang first with this king!" ”

"The regent is also ready to retire?" Meng Qiaofang raised her eyebrows.

Dolgon said: "If the king of Yongping wants to withdraw, it will be meaningless for this king to stay here!" The king agreed to withdraw from the army, but I hope that King Yonghei will retire with the king. If Wang Yan chases, as long as we join forces, maybe we can fight him and change the current situation! ”

Meng Qiaofang pondered for a while, now against the Ming army, or continue to storm the Ming camp, there is no chance of victory, but if they retreat and Wang Yan pursues, they may be able to fight back and defeat Wang Yan in the field.

"Okay, the regent's move is to retreat, maybe there is a chance to lead Wang Yan to fight, I agree with the regent's opinion, the Jin army will retreat to Luoyang with the Qing army." Meng Qiaofang bowed his head and made a decision, "If Wang Yan chases, then our two families will fight together with the Ming army, if Wang Yan does not chase, then the Jin army will retreat to Tongguan, and I advise the regent to give up Heluo too!" ”

Dolgon covered his chest and said weakly, "Okay, then King Yongping and wait for the king's order to withdraw his army." ”

Meng Qiaofang nodded yes, saluted and retired, "Okay, the regent pays attention to his body, I'll go back and prepare, and wait for the regent's order!" ”

With that, he departed, and when he came out of the tent, Dorgon immediately spurted out another mouthful of blood.

"King thief, so ruthless!" Dolgon gritted his teeth, "This trick is to repair the plank road in the light and Chen Cang in the dark, it's really vicious!" The king thief actually wants to eat my 200,000 army of the Qing Dynasty in one go! ”

As Wang Yan expected, when he received the military report from Dai Zhifan, Dolgon also received the news that the Ming army of the Eastern Road had entered Henan.

This news hit him hard like a hammer directly on his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that he had suffered many blows during this period of time, and had subconsciously prepared for the worst, maybe he would not have vomited blood, but directly scared the city into dementia and would never have been able to wake up again!

"Regent, what should I do now? Kaifeng was attacked, and the next target of the Ming army must be the Tiger Pass. If the tiger prison is breached and the Ming army outflanks us, then we will be surrounded by the Ming army in Heluo. Lou Qin was a little anxious.

"Pass the order, the army is ready to retreat!" The Ming army has been outflanked, and he must get out of the pass before the Ming takes the Tiger Prison Pass.

"Then this matter is hidden from Meng Qiaofang, and the generals in the army?" Lou Qin asked.

Dolgon nodded heavily, "I can't say it, once I say it, Meng Qiaofang will definitely run away immediately with the Jin army." The generals in the army must also keep it secret, and can only tell Doni and other reliable people, and they must not let the army know that the Ming army has broken through Xuzhou and broken through the flank to outflank it. If the generals knew that the army would be chaotic without a fight, and once Wang Yan chased after him, it would definitely be defeated. ”

Dolgon looked at Lou Qin, "This king now has only a coercive army, first arrived in Luoyang, got rid of Wang Yan, made sure that he could get out of the customs safely, and then told Meng Qiaofang the truth." ”

"Uncle Wang, I understand!"

Dolgon then waved his hand, "You go and prepare, we will withdraw tonight, and we can't delay any longer." ”

The Ming army from the east was outflanked, which was a matter of life and death for Dolgon. Lou Qin knew that the situation was urgent, and hurriedly called the guards outside the tent to take care of Dolgon, and he bowed and retired, and hurriedly went back to prepare.

That night, under the pretext of lack of food and grass, Dolgon ordered the army to withdraw from camp overnight and quietly retreat.

After receiving the order to withdraw the troops, not only the Eight Banners were relieved, but the Green Battalion soldiers, whose rations were almost halved, were also relieved. If this bird battle continues, it will not be able to win, and the soldiers praised the regent for his wise decision-making.

That night, the Qing army slaughtered the remaining 20,000 head of livestock, each of whom brought more than 20 catties as rations for the next few days. Dorgon then sent Doni back to Luoyang and sacked the city to get new food supplies.

On the fourth watch, when it was asleep, the 180,000 Jinqing coalition troops abandoned the camp and galloped north.

After Wang Yan got the military report, he expected that if Dolgon got the news, he would definitely want to escape from the Central Plains, so he had already ordered the Ming army to pay attention to the movements of the Qing camp.

On the fifth watch, before dawn, Wang Yan was sleeping soundly in the tent, and a voice suddenly called outside: "Your Highness, Your Highness, the enemy soldiers have fled!" ”

The voice shouted a few times before Wang Yan came to his senses and sat up from the marching bed.

After a short time, Wang Yan put on his armor and came to the Qing army camp under the escort of hundreds of cavalry.

Li Guo, who was directing the soldiers to search the Qing military camp, saw him coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Your Highness! ”

Wang Yan rode on the charcoal horse, pointed at the Qing camp with his horsewhip, and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Li Guo hurriedly replied, "The four camps are all empty. The equipment in the camp was not moved, even the artillery was discarded, only the grain and grass were taken away, and all the cattle and sheep were killed by the Qing army. ”

As he spoke, Li Guo waved his hand, and a soldier presented a piece of carrion, Wang Yan smelled the smell and frowned slightly.

Li Guo hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, this is found in the Huotou Camp of the Qing Army, and there are thousands of catties of rotten flesh like this. ”

"Isn't the Qing army short of food?" Wang Yan raised his eyebrows.

"Your Highness, none of these meats have been salted, so a lot of them are rotten." Li Guo pointed to the carrion and said: "I think that in addition to the lack of food, the Qing army also lacks salt, so there is so much meat rotten. Since there was no salt, the Qing army slaughtered all the remaining livestock in the case of lack of food, and they thought that they had no way back and were really going to escape. ”

Wang Yan nodded when he heard this, and immediately turned his head and ordered: "Go, let Wang Shixiu and Liu Fangliang come and see Gu quickly!" ”

At that moment, Wang Yan found a big cart in the Qing camp and sat down, and after a short time, a group of cavalry galloped over, stopped not far away, and then turned over and dismounted.

Wang Shixiu and Liu Fangliang walked over quickly and saluted together, "Your Highness, what are your orders?" ”

Wang Yan immediately stood up and said solemnly: "Dolgon fled with 180,000 enemy troops. Lone is now destined to rampage the Ma Army, as well as Zhongyong Town, immediately pursue, must bite Dol Roll, and cannot let him escape. ”

Saying that, Wang Yan paused, looked at the two of them, and continued to solemnly instruct: "In addition, Dolgon is cunning, you must also be vigilant, don't fall into an ambush!" There is also a decisive battle with the Qing army before the rear army arrives. ”

Wang Shixiu and Liu Fangliang glanced at each other, their eyes showed fieryness, and they clenched their fists excitedly, "Humble and orderly!" ”

Wang Yan then waved his hand and said, "You guys set off immediately, and the army of the Lone Governor will arrive later!" ”

The two did not dare to slack off, and saluted again, assuring Wang Yan that they would not let Dolgon escape, so they threw off their cloaks, turned over their horses, and walked away.

The Qing army was leaving, if it had been before, the Ming army could only watch and watch them go.

Now, Wang Yan has nearly 30,000 elite horse troops in his hands, plus 30,000 dragon infantry troops who can use horses to walk, it is not so easy for Dolgon to escape.

Wang Shixiu and Liu Fangliang, not long after returning to the camp, 30,000 rampaging horses jumped on their horses and raised their swords, and rushed out of the camp first.

More than 100,000 war horses, the momentum was monstrous, and 10,000 hooves trampled the earth, and Heluo was shaken.

Wang Yan was fascinated, he stood up and said to Li Guo and Li Dingguo: "Go back to the camp, we should also prepare to go!" ”
