Huang Taiji planned to retreat, everyone was overjoyed, only Zu Dashou was expressionless, Yin Ji saw this and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "General Zu is worried that Huang Taiji will not be fooled and send the Qing army into the city?" ”

Li Qi smiled and said, "Didn't the Qing Dynasty messenger go back to report the news?" It is said that the night after will bring the Qing soldiers into the city, when the time comes, as long as we open the city gate, General Zu will take the opportunity to ambush in the city, and after the Qing soldiers enter the city, they can close the city gate and kill the Qing soldiers! And even if it doesn't work, we will have a few days! Why should General Zu be sullen? ”

Zu Dashou got up and sighed softly: "The general is just worried about the war situation in the court, and the 100,000 Qing troops have entered the customs, I don't know what the situation is now!" North Korea has always been a small game, whether it wins or loses, and the overall situation of resisting the Qing Dynasty is not hindered, after all, it depends on the DPRK! ”

Li Qi hurriedly persuaded and said: "There are many good generals in the Heavenly Empire, and there is even the emperor in Beijing, and the Qing army will definitely return in vain." ”

Zu Dashou nodded silently, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.

For two days in a row, the Qing army was fifty miles away from the mountain city of Nanhan, and there was no movement, so Zu Dashou seized the time to sort out the equipment to defend the city. Late at night on the third day, Zu Dashou and Li Liang, Yin Ji and others waited in the city with their soldiers, but the Qing army did not send anyone to come at all.

In the early morning of the next day, there were suddenly thousands of cavalry of the Qing army under the yellow flag under the banner of Huang Taiji appeared under the city, and I saw Huang Taiji wearing Ming and Huang dragon pattern armor and riding a horse to come to the city five miles away.

Just when the Ming army was on alert, a horse in the Qing army suddenly rushed to the city, raised his head and shouted to the city: "I came by the edict of the Qing Emperor, and the ancestor of the ancestor is here?" ”

Zu Dashou raised his hand to let the Ming army put away his bow and arrows, peeked out from the female wall, and shouted to the Qing soldiers under the city: "The general is Zu Dashou, in front of the two armies, what is the emperor Taiji doing to find the general?" ”

"I, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, want to invite the ancestor to go out of the city!" Qing Bingdao.

Zu Dashou was stunned when he heard this, and Ming at the head of the city couldn't help but exclaim. However, the Liaodong Army had ordinary contacts with the Qing Army in the Northeast, but it was also known that the enemy chieftain Taiji admired Zu Dashou very much, and praised Zu Dashou dozens of times on various occasions.

I saw that Huang Taiji suddenly ordered the Qing army around him to retreat more than ten miles, leaving only two Dolgon and Yue Tuo in place.

Zu Dashou stretched out his hand to pat the female wall, squinting his eyes and looking at the emperor Taiji under the city. After a long time, he sighed softly, and then shouted: "Gai Wen has no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the earth, today I am the only one in the Ming Dynasty, and the three generals are the chief military officers of the Ming Dynasty, and the world is favored by the emperor, how can I meet with the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!" If the two armies are fighting, you must stop talking nonsense about our army's hearts and retreat quickly, otherwise Ben will stand down with a bang, and ten thousand arrows will be fired together, and you will be shot to death in the city! ”

"Since I dare to come alone, why am I afraid of death, besides, how can I kill me because of the hero of the ancestor general?" Qing Bing laughed and was not angry, and said to Zu Dashou: "It doesn't matter if the ancestor is unwilling to go out of the city, my emperor once said that if the ancestor is unwilling to go out of the city, he will ask me to speak for the emperor."

It has been a few years since the farewell of the Great Ling River. I came here without fear of hardship, just hoping to meet the general. As for whether the general will surrender to my Daqing or remain in Daming, he will not be reluctant, and the general himself will decide to stay. Last time, I released the general, if I used the pretext of meeting to trap the general, how can I still trust the people of the world?

Although the general has repeatedly led the team to clash with our army over the years, I know that you are carrying out orders and doing your duty, and I will not take it to heart, please don't doubt it, I released you in Daling River, and my ministers said that I can't see people clearly. Now, the general should go out of the city to meet me, and prove that I am not wrong.

If the general is not at ease, we will each bring one or two of our cronies and meet five miles below the city. I did this just to laugh at myself, and at the same time let the general's nephews and the generals of Da Linghe know that the general is the one who fulfills his promise! ”

Zu Dashou was stunned when he heard this, and then left the city and did not show up again.

The Qing soldiers who sent orders saw that Zu Dashou did not react, and at this moment, the Ming army even raised their bird guns and bows and crossbows at him, and had no choice but to retreat to Huang Taiji's side.

"Your Majesty, the servants are not doing well, and they have failed to persuade Zu Dashou to leave the city, please punish the emperor!" The Qing soldiers dismounted and knelt down in front of Huang Taiji and pleaded guilty.

"You are ordered to risk death to go, what a crime!" Huang Taiji personally helped him up and sighed.

Qing Bing's face showed a touch of emotion, and tears appeared faintly in his eyes.

After Huang Taiji got on the horse, when he was about to leave, he glanced at the mountain city of Nanhan from afar, and sighed: "In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it was said that attacking the heart is the top, attacking the city is the bottom, the heart is the top, and the soldier is the bottom, I treat Zu Dashou like this, if he is defeated next time and falls to me, he should surrender!" ”

Yue Tuo said repeatedly: "If Zu Dashou can take refuge in my Qing Dynasty, once the situation in the Ming Dynasty changes, then Liaodong can take it!" ”

"There will be a chance!" Huang Taiji said in a solemn voice, and then he was full of grief and regret in his heart, and sighed: "Azig was defeated, with thousands of casualties, Yanguli was killed on the spot, I didn't expect that my Qing Dynasty was so badly damaged by the Ming army!" ”

Dolgon heard yesterday a battle report from the court, saying that Azig was defeated by the Ming army when he entered the pass, not only did he gain nothing, but he was also beheaded by the Ming army.

However, at this time, seeing that Huang Taiji was worried and persuaded him: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, if my Qing soldiers talk about martial arts and are ten times that of the Ming army, I heard that it is the newly made firearms of the Ming army and their ferocity, plus there is Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers to help, Azig does not know that there is such a defeat." As the so-called victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, next time we have to take precautions, it is impossible for the Ming army to win like this! ”

Huang Taiji shook his head, thinking of the battle of the Hunhe River more than ten years ago, the Ming army was also cooperated by the white pole soldiers and the Qi family army who were good at using firearms.

Huang Taiji paid so much attention to the red-coated cannon, and the impression left on him by that battle was not unreasonable!

"Since you can't get it on the battlefield, then let Buddhism take action, I must get potatoes and new firearms from the Ming Dynasty!" Huang Taiji decided in his heart.

……

It was a battle, Huang Taiji led his troops back to Shenyang, and the DPRK was relieved. Zu Dashou was unaware at first, but secretly guessed that there should be a change in the situation of the civil war in the DPRK.

It wasn't until a few days later that he got the report of the battle in Liaodong, knowing that Lu Xiangsheng led Qin Liangyu to raise the potential new city and fight head-on with the Qing soldiers led by Azig, and achieved a great victory, beheading 5,372 Qing soldiers, and beheading the Qing Dynasty's super Gong Yangguli.

Zu Dashou was shocked and took the battle report, and he couldn't believe it for a long time. How difficult the Qing army is, Zu Dashou, who has been fighting with the Qing army for decades, has a deep understanding, and he can't imagine that the Ming army can win a field battle with the Qing army, so doesn't it mean that the Tianxiong army and the white pole soldiers are already more elite than the Guanning army?

At this time, Zu Dashou's thoughts drifted away, the Guanning army was no longer the first strong army in the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing army was not invincible.
