Chapter 678: Back to Naturalization

As soon as the next morning, when Huang Taiji and others led 5,000 cavalry to twist into a rope and rush down from Baishan Mountain in desperation, Zhang Hongmo's department, which was in front of the forward cavalry of the Yellow Banner led by Bai Yintu and Tobuqi, was immediately in chaos.

Zu Dashou, who was personally sitting in Zhang Hongmo's camp, hurriedly led the army to meet the battle, and the two sides fought fiercely together again.

It's just that at this time, Zu Dashou's army has been divided into four, although Liu Tianlu and Zu Zeyuan, who set up camp in the north, urgently led their troops to help, and the number of people is not much different from this Jianyu Zhenghuang Banner cavalry.

Moreover, less than half an hour after the outbreak of the war, the Red Flag Gushan Ezhen Yechen, who remained at the victory gate, led his troops to rush over, and suddenly launched an attack on the Zu Dashou army from behind, opening a gap in the middle of the Datong Ming army, which was gathering more and more.

Soon, Cha Suka, Zhun Ta, He Luohui and others escorted Huang Taiji, who had changed horses and ordinary cotton armor, and rushed out of the encirclement, all the way to the north, and went straight to the victory pass.

The Red Flag Gushan Ezhen Yechen who came to the aid, as well as the Bai Yintu, Tobuqi and others who were in the Yellow Banner fell into a bitter battle.

Around midnight that day, Wu Fu, the superintendent of Datong Town, who had been leading the army to sit in Yanghewei, and Zhang Quanchang, the deputy chief soldier of Datong Town East Road, led the army from Yanghewei to the vicinity of Baishan Mountain.

With the addition of the musket team of the standard battalion under the command of Wu Fu and the 5,000 fresh troops under Zhang Quanchang's command, the battle under Bai Mountain's mountain soon had a result.

At noon, the Red Flag Gushan Ezhen Yechen, the Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen Baiyintu, and the Zhenghuang Banner Meler Ezhen Tobuqi, who were under siege but still refused to surrender, were killed one after another, and Barama, who had been taken by Huang Taiji's side, was taken prisoner and was not killed on the spot because he showed his identity to Zu Dashou.

At the same time, some of the Red Flag Banners brought by the Red Flag Gushan Ezhen Yechen and the Zhenghuang Banner Ding who followed Bai Yintu, Tobuqi and others to open the way and finally fell into a heavy siege after breaking off, totaled more than 4,000 people, except for hundreds of people who were captured due to wounds, the rest were all killed in battle.

On the side of the Ming army, Zhang Hongmo, a fierce general under Zu Dashou, was seriously injured, and another fierce general, Cao Gongcheng, died in the battle array, and the rest of Liu Tianlu, Zu Zeyuan and others were also injured and hung up one by one.

Even when the situation was fully advantageous later, the number of soldiers and soldiers of Datong Ming who were killed in battle, seriously wounded and lost their combat effectiveness still exceeded 2,000.

However, when Fan Fucui, Zu Dashou, Wu Fu, Zhang Quanchang and others fell to the ground in the fierce battle under Baishan Mountain, and led the crowd to climb Baishan Mountain, the frustration and disappointment were quickly swept away.

The wounded and sick flagmen who were abandoned on the mountain by Huang Taiji and others did not have time to resist before they were killed by a burst of random shots from the musket team of the standard battalion of Wu Fujian's army, who followed them up the mountain.

Abandoned along with the sick and wounded flagmen were one hundred and twelve two-wheeled carts filled with boxes of various sizes.

The mules and horses pulling the carts have long since disappeared, but the heavy looking carts have been left on the gentle hills.

Zu Zeyuan led people to step forward quickly, pulled out a long knife and split a wooden box, and everyone's eyes lit up in an instant.

As the wooden box opened, pieces of silver ingots of different sizes glowed seductively in the sunlight.

Zu Zeyuan led his subordinates to open the boxes on more than a dozen carts in succession, which were full of silver ingots of such sizes and sizes.

It was also at this time that Fan Fucui and Zu Dashou looked at each other and nodded, and they could figure out why this Jianyu army had to guard these cumbersome carts and retreat together.

It turned out that it was full of a large amount of gold and silver wealth harvested by Jianlu since he entered the customs from killing Hukou, looting the left and right guards of Datong and looting Shuozhou Shanyin, Mayi, Yingzhou, Huairen and other places.

Speaking of which, a considerable part of this originally belonged to the Shuoping Ma family.

It's just that, at this time, of course, no one will talk about the question of where the money came from and to whom it should belong.

Of course, if there were too many people who were not present, and some of them, such as Fan Fucui and Wu Fu, were civil officials, it was impossible for them to be bought by the old ancestors, otherwise, Zu Zeyuan really wanted to suggest that his uncle should keep the seized silver.

This thought kept surging in Zu Zeyuan's heart, but in the end it all dissipated.

Not to mention the presence of Fan Fucui, the governor of Datong, Wu Fu, the superintendent of the army, and others, even Zu Dashou himself could not agree to do so.

How to break the killing of Hukou and how Jianyu entered the customs from killing Hukou, Zu Dashou himself may not know, but Zu Zeyuan, who has a very good relationship with Zu Zerun, the eldest son of Zu Dashou, thought with his ass afterwards, and also knew that he must make a deal with Zu Da Those Shanxi businessmen are inseparable from the dereliction of duty in killing Hukou.

At this time, the ancestral family is the time to make up for the merits or atone for the merits, if there is a different kind of mind to deceive the superiors and conceal the subordinates, once it is a little leaky, Emperor Chongzhen, who is now leading the army and personally sitting in Juyong Pass, can still spare his ancestral family?

Therefore, in the end, Zu Zeyuan could only sigh and watch Fan Fucui, the governor of Datong, and Wu Fu, the imperial historian of the Datong Town Supervisor, under the escort of the Datong Supervisor Army Standard Camp and Zhang Quanchang, the deputy chief soldier of Datong East Road, transport this one hundred and twelve carts of gold and silver wealth of more than one million taels from Baishan Mountain, and then transport it all the way to Yanghe Weiwei City dozens of miles away for storage.

And Zu Zeyuan himself could only follow the main force of the Datong Town cavalry led by Zu Dashou and Liu Tianlu, take a shortcut from Zhenchuankou to the north, and go to the border to intercept and ambush Huangtaiji, who fled to the victory pass.

Today, the remnants of the Yellow Flag under the command of Huang Taiji plus the remnants of the Red Flag in the mouth of victory are no more than 4,000 people.

If it can be annihilated outside the Datong border before Huang Taiji joins the Yellow Banner and the Horqin Left Wing Army outside the Dushi Pass, then the officers and troops of Datong Town will be able to make up for their mistakes or sins before!

This is Zu Dashou's idea, and it is also the idea of Fan Fucui and Wu Fu.

Therefore, after Fan Fucui, the governor of Datong, sent people to send a joint battle report with Zu Dashou and Wu Fu, he arrived at Yanghe Acropolis that night, and early the next morning, let Wu Fu and Zhang Quanchang lead the army out of Yanghekou and stationed in Maoerzhuang Fort, hoping to form another line of defense behind Zu Dashou and others, so as to completely block the only way for Huang Taiji and the Jianyu Mongol army outside Dushikou to join forces.

For these battle ideas that were submitted along with the battle report at the foot of Bai Dengshan, Emperor Chongzhen of course agreed to all of them.

As the so-called generals are not subject to the king's orders.

At the same time as these Fuchen and Zhenchen reported the battle plans, they were already executing these battle plans, and it is impossible for you to disagree.

And as a governor and commander-in-chief, if you don't even have this bit of tactical autonomy, then you really can't talk about it.

For the large number of seizures by Wang Tingchen and others at the foot of Jiming Mountain, as well as the large number of seizures by Zu Dashou and others at Baishan Mountain, Emperor Chongzhen was of course very happy when he heard the report.

Huang Taiji's escape to the Monan grassland certainly disappointed Emperor Chongzhen.

However, Huang Taiji led the army to burn and loot a large amount of gold and silver wealth in Xuanda and other places, and now all of them have fallen into the hands of the Ming official army, which makes Emperor Chongzhen feel gratified.

After the war, the compensation of the wounded and wounded soldiers required a large sum of silver.

Including Xuanfu Datong, many cities, villages and lands that were burned, looted, ravaged and destroyed by the captured and Mongol armies needed to re-collect refugees or re-recruit people for reclamation and resettlement.

These also require a large amount of silver.

With these gold and silver recovered from Jianyu's hands, Emperor Chongzhen's hands would be a little more lenient.

Just when Emperor Chongzhen was in the Juyong Pass, planning with all his heart how to turn the bad thing of Jianyu into the pass and ravaging Xuanda into an opportunity to re-plan and rebuild Xuanda, Huang Taiji, who fled from Baishan Mountain to the victory pass, once again fell into an extreme mood of anger and pain.

After Huang Taiji broke through the encirclement and entered the victory, here he unexpectedly saw Yue Tuo, the lord of the red flag who was supposed to escort the property north, and as soon as he asked the ins and outs, Huang Taiji was furious and resentful of Mang Gurtai's disobedience to the order and the first to flee.

It's just that this matter has come to this point, and the whereabouts of Sanbeile Mang Gurtai are now unknown, and for a while, Huang Taiji is helpless.

However, the morning after arriving at the victory pass, Huang Taiji soon made another difficult decision.

That is, to give up the east to meet the Yellow Banner, but to the northwest, first back to Kuku and Tun to win a period of rest.

At the same time, Huang Taiji also asked He Luohui to lead people to the east to find the Hauge Department with the yellow flag, and ordered Hauge not to fight with the Ming army outside the border of Jizhen, but to immediately lead the army west into Kuku and Tun, and rush to meet Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji's reluctance to seek the near and far surprised Cha Suka, Zhun Ta and others who followed left and right, but he received the full support of Yue Tuo.

For those who are already a little lost in their souls, such as Chasuka and Zhunta, although Kuku and Tun may be closer to the victory pass, there are still troops with yellow flags and Horqin's left flank to the east.

To the west, there was no large army to rely on in Kuku and Tuncheng, except for the remaining part of the Yellow Banner army and the attached Mongol servant army.

But Huang Taiji said to these people: "Duolunuoer went east, and there was already a large army gathered outside the border of Jizhen in the Ming Kingdom, and now the army led by me has suffered too many losses under Juyong Pass, and I am afraid that this matter will not be hidden for long!" Presumably, at this time, the Ming army gathered outside the edge of Jizhen already knew. Once this happens, wouldn't I and you take a shortcut to the east, won't we fall into the net of the Ming army?!

"And to Kuku and Tun are different, now I am close and far away, and I will be out of the Southern Dynasty monarchs and ministers! And Wu Basheng, Mu Ketan, Erke Chuhuer and others, there are still more than 10,000 troops in Shuozhou, and Abatai, Li Yongfang, Babudaiji and others have more than 15,000 horsemen in the west.

"Besides, the various ministries of Monan are newly determined, and their hearts are not fully attached, if I don't go to Kuku and Tun, I will abandon Monan and ignore it! If this is the case, wouldn't I give Mo Nan to others in vain if I waited for this time to personally investigate Har and drive away Lin Dan Khan!? ”

In this way, Huang Taiji personally came forward to persuade the people around him as never before, and finally at noon on November 26, despite the wind and snow, he led the remnants of the Zhenghuang Banner and the Red Flag to enter Kuku and Tun again.

Kuku and Tun still look the same, but Huang Taiji knows that everything has changed when he comes back this time.
