Chapter 101: Confrontation (1)

The 30,000-foot cavalry army set off from Liaoyang City, and the commander of the army would be Duoduo.

Although Dolgon attached great importance to the power of Jiangchuan, he did not think that this force that had emerged from the sky was worthy of his personal command. And his younger brother Dordor has enough to deal with these people.

In Dolgon's view, the previous destruction of Tong Yang and the breach of Liaoyang City were nothing more than defenselessness.

And there will be no second chance like this, and if there is a second time, then he is no longer worthy of the nickname "Murgen Daiqing".

An army of eight banners that is on guard and on guard will definitely be a nightmare for the enemy.

Of course, Dolgon also made two preparations, in addition to Duoduo leading an army of 30,000 to exterminate this group of nameless forces who dared to challenge the Eight Banners and Tigers, he himself personally sat in Liaoyang and led the remaining 15,000 men and horses to defend Liaoyang, and he could not let Liaoyang be broken for the second time.

After repeated reconnaissance by hundreds of scouts, Dorgon finally confirmed the exact location of the enemy. After a detailed investigation, he found that it was originally the lair of a thief named Hai Dongqing.

According to the information investigated, this Hai Dongqing once agreed to take refuge in Tong Yangxing, who is already dead.

And before Tong Yangxing set off, it seems that he also sent someone to contact this Hai Dongqing. And the hiding place of this surnamed Jiang is now in this place.

Knowing the news, Dolgon's expression brightened. From this information, he had probably guessed the reason why Tong Yang's department was really killed.

What an idiot, no wonder someone killed him so easily. For Tong's death, Dolgon now only felt that he was to blame, who made him so stupid that he would easily trust a gang of horse thieves.

This information led Dorgon to believe that the armed force was just a more powerful group of horse thieves, yes, horse thieves.

If it's a horse thief, then it's understandable why they resort to such despicable and cowardly ambush tactics.

But this is indeed the most daring horse thief Dorgon has ever seen or heard, but soon you will have to taste the heavy price of this folly.

However, thinking that his slim niece Yatu fell into the hands of a group of horse thieves, Dolgon couldn't help but sigh, knowing that this little princess who loved the Xinjueluo family was completely hopeless, and even if she was rescued, it would become a shame for the Great Qing Kingdom.

In his heart, he had already sentenced the little girl who affectionately called him Uncle Wang to death.

The 30,000-eight banner army waved its flags, almost covering the sky and the sun, rolling southward, and the sentinels were released a hundred miles away, and the scout cavalry kept reporting the military situation in front of them.

Fifty miles after the army left Liaoyang, there was still no trace of the enemy daring to block it, which made Duoduo a little disappointed and even more natural.

He really hoped that in the field battle, he would simply kill those who dared to challenge the name of the Eight Banners Warriors mercilessly, cut off their heads, and let the world once again see how stupid and self-defeating it was to dare to fight against the invincible Eight Banners Warriors.

But when I think about it, if those thieves who only dare to sneak attack have the courage to put on a posture and be tough with the Eight Banners Army, then there is really a problem with their heads.

The calm of the road made Duoduo a little bored, riding on the horse, the blazing sun above his head made him a little sleepy, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and yawn.

He felt that this time Brother Wang let himself lead troops to exterminate this gang of thieves, but in fact, they were all killing chickens with knives. In fact, this kind of thing can be easily completed by finding a solid mountain Ezhen or even Jia Lae Zhen to lead the team.

However, Brother Wang asked him to lead the army personally, and it was an army of 30,000 cavalry, which can be said to be almost extremely important to these thieves.

In his mind, this operation was not much different from a hunt. Now that the thieves' lair has been found, as soon as the 30,000-strong army arrives, the overwhelming power will probably make those guys collapse without a fight.

Therefore, for this battle, Duoduo really did not have much interest in his heart.

It's just that this time I have the emperor's order, even if I don't want to, I have to do it.

This time, the army of 30,000 included 10,000 cavalry, 20,000 foot soldiers, and a baggage brigade, carrying no more than ten days' worth of grain and grass.

Among these 30,000 people, there were less than 10,000 Manchurian Eight Banner soldiers, and the rest were all Mongolian Eight Banners and Han Army Eight Banners.

The chain of contempt of the Manchurians was: the Manchurian soldiers were stronger than the Mongol soldiers, and the Mongol soldiers were stronger than the Han Eight Banners. But in Duoduo's opinion, no matter how bad the Mongols and the Han Eight Banners were, it was more than enough to deal with these thieves hiding in the ravines.

Only Tong Yangxing's idiot would be killed by a group of horse thieves.

Dodor swayed on his horse, the scorching sun on his head made him a little irritable, and he untied the water bladder from his saddle and unplugged it and poured a sip of water to feel a little cooler.

This damn sun, the further south it goes, the more annoying it gets, I really miss the cool dense forest where the tribe lived when I was a child, although the snow is heavy in winter, but it is very refreshing, where can it be as hot as the territory of these southern barbarians.

At this moment, Dodor seemed to hear something unusual, and after many years of fighting, he quickly understood that it was the sound of horses' hooves pounding on the ground, and that it was a lot of horses.

Then there was some faint sound of fighting coming from the wind.

"Report! Lord Wang, an unknown group of cavalry appeared behind the army, about a thousand people, and was attacking our army's baggage team. A cavalryman came up from behind and reported loudly.

Unknown cavalry? It must have been the men and horses sent by the thieves to slow down the march of our army. This simple tactic is what we left over from the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry.

Dodor sneered, "Let Balgen take his two thousand Mongol soldiers to kill these people, and if not bring back their heads, then bring back his own heads." “

"Huh!" The herald had turned around and sent the order.

Soon, a group of 2,000 Mongol cavalry broke away from the brigade and pressed on the unknown cavalry on two wings.

The unknown cavalry obviously knew that they were defeated, so they turned around and ran, and the Mongol cavalry gave chase, and the two sides fled and chased each other, heading to the northwest.

For this little episode, Duoduo didn't pay much attention. If the thieves hadn't sent cavalry to harass them, he would have felt a little abnormal. However, this situation has seen a lot for a person like him who has been in battle for a long time, and there is no need to be afraid at all.

The army continued to move forward, and apart from some initial slowdowns, the unidentified cavalry's assault caused little damage to the army.
