"Dorgon is dead! Dorgon is dead! ”

The excited Shanxi rebels shouted, screaming news that they didn't know whether it was true or false, shuttling around the battlefield, looking for the lone Qing soldiers, and then swarming forward to kill them.

They basically played no role in this battle, and most of the time they stayed nervously behind the Kuizhou army to watch the play, and several times, when the Qing army came over, many people in the rebel army retreated.

When they were replaced by the former Ming official army, these people had already run away with oil on the soles of their feet, which was a well-tempered escape technique, and it was unforgettable.

However, Liang Guogong was on the wall, the Kuizhou army and the brigade were staring at the back, who dared to run, there must be no good fruit to eat, Liang Guogong personally cut off a few deserter heads and hundreds of rout heads mixed together, hanging high on the wall to show the public, the blood has not dried up.

Because of this, they saw a great victory that they could never forget for a lifetime, and the Eight Banners that were invincible in the world were defeated! Defeated! Defeated!

When many people held their weapons and began to charge in the sound of the horn, they were still in a dream, almost unable to believe their eyes, and the eyes that looked at the white armor soldiers in Kuizhou were even more awe-inspiring. After running for a while, I was as excited as chicken blood, and everyone would fight with the wind, especially with the Kuizhou soldiers, which was particularly energetic!

In the past, the Jurchen soldiers who were terrified when they saw them from afar would actually run away with their heads in disregard, what an irony! Everyone is happy, the Qing soldiers who are scurrying around the mountains are like mice, they will catch up and kill, in this case, no matter how cowardly people are, they will be as brave as Lu Bu, striding meteors and shouting and killing.

The shouts that disturbed the morale of the army made the Qing soldiers even more unwilling to fight, and no one in the chaotic army could figure out whether Dorgon was alive or dead.

Under the sun, the one-sided pursuit extended on the field, from Shiling Pass to the north, there were people slashing and shouting everywhere, swords and swords and shadows flowed into rivers, on the roads, in the fields, on the high mountains on both sides, there were people who ran and chased and killed, the corpses were densely packed, the broken drums and flags were thrown all over the ground, the flames burned on the bloody cart, and the large black smoke rose to the sky, even if the mountain wind was fierce, it could not blow away the bleak smoke.

Compared with the undisciplined and indiscriminate pursuit of the rebels, the Kuizhou army obviously began to slow down, consciously gave way to both sides, and gave the task of frontal pursuit to the rebel brothers who came to take advantage, and began to assemble, with the cavalry in front and the rear in the back, and advanced at high speed.

Li Dingguo and Ding Guodong led a team composed of Kuizhou cavalry and Gansu town cavalry, like a huge arrow shot by a giant bow, decisively bypassed the crowded rout, ignored a large number of fleeing Qing soldiers, and pursued the official road in the direction of Daizhou.

In addition to the bulky artillery battalion, all the infantry soldiers of the Kuizhou Army took the three major war barracks as a unit, and under the leadership of their respective battalions, followed the horseshoe prints of the cavalry and went north, slashing and killing large groups of Qing soldiers along the way, so as not to let them have the opportunity to sit in a big group and cut off trouble for the rebels who were cleaning up the battlefield behind.

Wang Huan and Li Dingguo's walked together, giving orders all the way, sending a large number of scouts, looking for the shadow of Dolgon in the chaotic army, the regent's royal banner, from the moment the defeat loomed, he simply turned around and left, and the action was swift, enough to make the most proficient Nanming army embarrassed.

Caught a lot of live mouths, some people are tough, scolding endlessly, and refuse to surrender, this kind of person will be killed with one knife. After killing a few, the greedy for life and fear of death appeared, kneeling on the ground and humbly betraying Dorgon's whereabouts, and the scouts of the brigade went out to verify the authenticity of the news.

What is frustrating is that these Qing soldiers are fighting in front, and they don't know much about the news of Dolgon behind, one person points in one direction, messy, the scout chases for a while, and the report when he comes back is not true, this Wang Huan frowned deeply, and was a little worried.

After all, he is not an immortal, and it is not easy to find a person who has the intention to escape on the huge battlefield. He only divided his troops, Ding Guodong went to the direction of Daizhou, blocking the way for Dolgon to escape back from the original road, and he and Li Dingguo went to the direction of Xinzhou to prevent Dolgon from fleeing from Wutai Mountain to Dingxiang.

Just as the Ming army was pursuing with great fanfare, Dolgon woke up from his coma.

He slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a blue sky and a scorching sun.

The body is moving rapidly, the sun is shining on the body, it is warm and comfortable, the wind is blowing from the front, and the cool is very comfortable, this feeling is even more wonderful than the soft couch in the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Dole exhaled, closed his eyes, and the next second, he opened his eyes like a wolf, rolled over and sat up.

Instinctively grabbing the knife at his waist, he jumped up from the boardcart.

The people around looked at him in surprise, and then cheered: "The prince is awake!" The prince is awake! ”

Around him were some disheveled soldiers, some of them were still bloody, smoky and burning, Dolgon looked at them in confusion, and looked around, it was a barren mountain road, not very wide, a wooden cart that could only lie down and he was pulled by two horses and could barely pass, and the cart was padded with some quilts and clothes, so that he could sleep more comfortably in the coma.

"Where is this?" Dolgon asked, "What about the Ming army?" How's the war going? ”

A general wearing Gushan Ezhen armor came up and reported respectfully: "Back to the prince's words, this is the remaining vein of Luliang Mountain, the name of the soil is called Manglang Mountain, not far ahead, that is, the Muma River, and the Muma River is not far from Xinzhou." ”

"Manglang Mountain?" Dolgon stared at him, furious, "What are you doing here?" Why come here? Rosh, wait for the bold! Do you want to take this king hostage and escape?!"

This solid mountain Ezhen Rosh is a trusted confidant of Dolgon, loyal, and at this time he knelt down and buried his head, and wept bitterly: "Regent, defeated! The army is defeated! The Ming army defeated our cavalry, the artillery fire scattered the front army, the defeated soldiers were defeated, and the infantry of Aobai was dispersed, the Ming army took the opportunity to cover up and kill, and our army was defeated. The prince heard the bad news from the rear again, and he was in a coma, and I had no owner, so I had to protect the prince and retreat, and was chased and killed by the Ming army along the way, all the way here, I could follow the minions and so on, but there were hundreds of people. ”

"Defeated?" Dolgon looked at him in disbelief and repeated, "Wang Huan won?" ”

Suddenly, he drew a knife in his hand, and the bright blade was on Rosh's neck, and he shouted: "Dog minion, dare to lie to me?!" ”

Rosh raised his head, let the blade cut a bloody wound on his neck, and said sadly: "Lord Wang, how dare the slave lie to you, you are really defeated, the two sons of the slave led the troops to block the Ming army in order to cover the retreat of the prince, and they didn't come back at this moment, I don't know the good luck, how did this matter be fake?" ”

Dolgon's expression was stunned, the knife did not cut down, and his eyes swept to several other high-ranking generals, who knelt on the ground, echoed again and again, crying and kowtowing.

"Dangchang!"

The gold-inlaid sword fell to the ground, and the regent, who had just woken up from his coma, fell headlong on the cart.

"Lord Wang!" A few people were frightened, and they pounced on the person and rubbed their heads, and they were busy for a while before they could get Dorgon to turn around.

"The prince is precious! The big thing is not endless, as long as you return to Datong and mobilize the army, the dog is not a powdery ear, please don't be angry! "Rosh and the others are as pale as dirt, and if Dorgon explains that he is here, everything will be over.

Taking a deep breath, Dolgon sat up slowly, his eyebrows seemed to be several years old in an instant, and his movements were slow, Rosh and the others wanted to support him, but he slapped him away.

"We can't go to Xinzhou." He adjusted his breathing and said lightly: "Wang Huan is as cunning as a fox, just waiting for my life, his soldiers, at this moment must go to Xinzhou, it is the Han army Lu Guangzu who stays in Xinzhou, this human nature is sleek, can not be trusted, once the Ming army arrives, either flee or surrender, we are in danger at this time, go to Xinzhou, too risky." ”

Rosh was stunned for a moment and said in a low voice: "So, what should I do?" ”

Dolgon's face looked to the west, where the mountains were towering, and a path winded into the mountains and disappeared among the green hills.

"Send the elite to ride fast horses to Datong, so that Azig can not meet with the Mongolian rebels, save the last strength of our Qing Dynasty, withdraw the siege of Datong, and go out of the Great Wall from Laoyingbao, where the king and he converge, go to the Horqin Department on the grassland along the pass, and mobilize Mongolian soldiers to wait for battle. At the same time, let Azig inform Zilharang that he was ready to retreat to the outside of the pass. Dolgon's eyes were deep, and he said carefully: "Shanxi can't keep it, let it be given to Wang Huan, Hong Xiang's plan seems to have to be used." ”
