Chapter 450: The Commotion Before Dawn

Zhu Qing returned the rule of his own way, invited the king into the urn, and finally trapped Dolgon and his 400,000 army in the Forbidden City, and came to close the door and beat the dog!

The strategy can be said to be successful, and the gates of the Forbidden City were closed at the same time under Zhu Qing's order, so that Dolgon, who was shouting for a plan, could not retreat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

However, Zhu Qing ignored the fatal point, the strength of the Qing army was twice as large as that of the Ming army, even if it was ambushed by the Ming army, it might be chaotic all of a sudden, but after reacting, the lethality of the Qing army was still very terrifying!

And Dolgon soon discovered the weakness of the Ming army, although the plan was trapped in the city, Dolgon calmed down and decided to fight, and the plan was calculated and the battle of the trapped beast!

"The siege of the Ming army is nothing but a cage of decay! Close the gates and integrate my will, no one will want to run! Soldiers, show the power of the steppe warriors! Dolgon wiped the blood-dripping sword, glared at Zhu Qing on the city gate, and sneered, his eyes refracted a terrifying cold light!

"Not good! Dolgon, you're jumping off the wall! Let the soldiers be careful! Zhu Qing quickly gained insight into the changes on Dolgon's face, and a candle flame illuminated the battle of wits and courage between the two coaches!

Although there are many Qing soldiers, and they are brave in battle, the terrain of the Forbidden City is relatively favorable to the Ming army, especially at night, the Qing army is like a robber who broke into the home of the Ming army.

The Ming army intercepted the blind Qing army many times near the moat of the city gate!

But the Qing army, which had lost several waves of charges, also quickly wiped out the Ming army along the moat and drove straight in!

Zhu Qing knew that once the Qing army approached the main hall, it would be unstoppable, so he immediately made a decision and sent the captain of the imperial guard.

"What does the general command?"

"Immediately send an order, let Chaoyang Gate and Chengtianmen send a signal at the same time, and summon reinforcements from these two places to me!" Zhu Qing ordered!

"Yes!" The captain of the Imperial Guard was ordered to go.

After a while, a signal flare suddenly remembered in the sky above the Forbidden City. The Suzaku and Heisha of Chaoyangmen saw it, and then led 50,000 reinforcements from Chaoyangmen into the Forbidden City, and Liangshan of Chengtianmen and Li Zicheng, the king of Chuangwang, also led 100,000 Kaifeng troops to kill the defenders of Chengtianmen after getting the signal, and outflanked from behind Dolgon!

"Report to the prince, it seems to be a signal for the Ming army to ask for help!" Shang Kexi spotted Jinyiwei's flare and said to Dolgon.

"What? The enemy still has reinforcements?! Dolgon was startled at first, then looked at the flare that had just been extinguished and thought for a moment, and then ordered, "Just in case, summon the soldiers in front of you and the soldiers from other doors back immediately!" Don't let the enemy break each one! ”

"Understood!" Shang Kexi received the order, and then blew the horn and called the troops back! Quickly gather the soldiers who were originally scattered to attack the various gates to the noon gate square! to deal with the outflanking of the Ming army!

If the troops are insufficient, the assembly can only be self-defeating, but now Dolgon still has more than 300,000 soldiers, and the Ming army may still have a chance to separate, but after twisting into a ball, it is not easy for the Ming army to bite it off. And in the night battle in the city, it is true that the Qing army is inferior, the Ming army is very familiar with the terrain and road conditions in the city, and it is easy to break the Qing army like a dark corner!

Dolgon's resoluteness saved the Qing army from unnecessary losses to a great extent!

However, when more than 300,000 people get together, it is always easy to be trapped. And Zhu Qing has already done so.

When Dolgon ordered the army to assemble, Zhu Qing also quickly made strategic adjustments, in addition to leaving a small number of soldiers to receive reinforcements, Zhu Qing ordered all the Ming troops to press forward step by step, if the Qing army returned to the horse gun is the best, just lure the enemy deep, and then break each one, if the Qing army can calm down, it is just more than 300,000 people to the noon gate! Don't let the enemy have a chance to escape.

"Prince! Jinyiwei is pressing too hard, I'm afraid we can't retreat! "Hua Buhua waited for the Manchu generals to be unwilling to retreat, and wanted to pounce and fight with the Ming army!

"Give me back! The enemy is waiting for you to send you to the door! Hurry back to the square! The divisions let the archers and gunners deploy on the perimeter, and the infantry responded, as long as we can hold until dawn, we will have the opportunity to rush out and kill them without leaving a single piece of armor! "Dolgon, shout!

In fact, once they retreated to the square, the Ming army really did not dare to attack rashly, after all, there were not enough manpower, the square had a relatively wide field of vision, and the Qing army had long-range troops to defend on the periphery, and it would only be death to pounce on it!

Dolgon's move made Zhu Qing temporarily discouraged. But for the Ming army, it is not wise to take the initiative to attack, after all, there is still a gap in strength! It's good to be able to hold it!

However, blindly defending only gave Dolgon and the Qing army a breather, and provided them with a good opportunity to make a comeback after dawn!

Zhu Qing can't give the enemy such a chance!

"If you can't beat it, you have to harass it!" Looking at Dolgon, who was steadily guarding the noon gate square, Zhu Qing pounded the railing angrily!

"But looking at this situation, the soldiers rushing forward are tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg!" Veterans such as Kill Feng and Liu Qingfeng did not agree with Zhu Qing's actions. It was recommended to wait for reinforcements to arrive before attacking. Chongzhen also took advantage of the retreat of the Qing army and came to the city gate from the inner hall to watch the battle.

"Killing Wind and the other generals are right, Dolgon's assembly square is expected that we will not dare to attack! He must have a way to deal with it, Qinglong can't be careless! Chongzhen dissuaded while observing the enemy situation with clairvoyance.

From the king to the officers and soldiers, they all opposed the attack, which made Zhu Qing very passive!

Seeing that Dolgon's army was slowly becoming more regular, Zhu Qing felt an ominous premonition, this was the dormant before the tiger hunted! If he is given enough strength, the Forbidden City will be destroyed as soon as the sky dawns!

"Your Majesty, generals, it is difficult for Shu Qinglong to obey his fate!" The more Zhu Qing looked at it, the more worried he became, he turned his head sharply and rejected the persuasion of Chongzhen and Killing Feng and others!

"Green Dragon! You ......" Killing Feng and Liu Qingfeng exclaimed, not to mention Zhu Qing's decision, just disobeying orders in front of the emperor like this is a capital crime!

"Your Majesty, you can't let Dolgon stop, the hungry tigers are all quietly observing and preparing before they pounce! The last general is not talented, and he is willing to lead hundreds of elites of Jinyi Wei to disturb the enemy and buy time for the arrival of reinforcements! This battle, the last general only brought a hundred brocade guards to go, the army is still guarding the imperial city, if the last general encounters an accident, it is all to blame, if you are lucky enough to live, come back and listen to the emperor's fate! Zhu Qing said, and hugged Chongzhen firmly!

"No! You are now the commander of the whole army, once something happens to you, how can the emperor dispatch this 100,000 army? "Killing Feng still disagrees, after all, Zhu Qing is now the boss, although there are many people in the army who can fight, but there are not many people who can fight and can fight, and they are even far less than Zhu Qing, which is also an important reason why he, the master, is willing to take a back seat and let his apprentice Qinglong serve as the coach!

"Master, you often teach us to be generals to take the lead, now the Qing army's formation, I'm afraid I don't need to say more, you also understand, non-ordinary soldiers can approach, after all, Jinyiwei is familiar with the formation and night battles, and we have cooperated very tacitly for so many years, I believe we are the most suitable candidate to disturb the enemy!" Zhu Qing is no longer humble, in the final analysis, the only person who can perform this task is Ouchi, but Ouchi has been beaten and collapsed, and the remaining warriors must stay to protect the emperor and the palace!

"But ......" Killing Feng was about to say something more, but was stopped by Chongzhen raising his hand.

Chongzhen walked over to Zhu Qing, straightened Zhu Qing's crooked cloak due to the battle, and sighed lightly, "You may have always felt that I am an emperor who has done nothing, and my suspicion is still very serious, but what I want to say is that maybe it is because of my suspicion that I can better understand the true thoughts in each of you's hearts, but I often wander between truth and suspicion, and I can't tell when it's true and when it's false." Now, I choose to believe you, to believe in what you really think—I can't let Dorgon prepare for war! Before dawn, we must let him mess up, otherwise, it will be us! I have almost nothing left now, and I cannot promise you anything. But my suspicion tells me that what Qinglong and Jinyiwei want is definitely not what ordinary people think......"

Chongzhen held Zhu Qing's shoulder and said quietly, occasionally laughing bitterly at himself, this man who usually looks unpredictable is digging out his heart and lungs with a group of big men at his door tonight! The soldiers around him were silent.

"The Emperor's ......" In addition to the vision of Chongzhen and Empress Zhou, Zhu Qing felt for the first time that this emperor was still worthy of allegiance!

"Your Majesty!" Zhu Qing, who was on a par with Zhu Qing, suddenly knelt down and bowed.

This kneeling, this sound, made Chongzhen's heart shock, even if he lost to Dolgon, he won the victory at the last moment of his life!

"Without further ado! Now is not the time to be moved! All the soldiers cheered up, with you fighting with me, the Ming Dynasty would not die! Chongzhen said excitedly, his eyes were already hot with tears, but he couldn't let them slip out! The Forbidden City at this moment does not believe in tears!

"Xuanwu, White Tiger, the event is ...... time," Zhu Qing suddenly shouted.

"The last general!" The three of them took orders forward.

"You and I, four of us, from each of the five gates, draw twenty elites to destroy the enemy with me!" Zhu Qing ordered!

"Order!" The three of them were ordered to quickly draw out twenty elites from each of the three gates, including Xuanwu, White Tiger, and Iron Mask, and Zhu Qing also drew out twenty Qinglong disciples from the Qinglong Gate, and a total of more than 100 Jinyi guards from the four gates formed an enemy-breaking group to challenge Dorgon's more than 300,000 legions!

"General, I'll go too!" Huzi automatically asks for help.

"I'll go too!"

"I'll go too!"

……

Shen Hui and other generals and Jinyi Guard warriors also volunteered. But they were all rejected by Zhu Qing.

"Defend the Imperial City for me! Wait for us to come back! "Zhu Qing didn't sensationalize them anymore! An order was given.

Who knew that this was the best sensationalism, Huzi and the others looked at Zhu Qing's eyes, and then replied firmly, "Please rest assured, general!" People are in the city! ”

Zhu Qing nodded with satisfaction, "Let's go!" As he spoke, he took the three tiger generals such as the White Tiger, Xuanwu, and Sai Shiqian and a hundred elites of the Jinyi Weijing out of the city!

"Brothers, do you remember the sixteen-character empowerment mantra of guerrilla warfare that I mentioned to you during training?"

"Remember!" The three of them responded in unison.

"Tell me about it!" Zhu Qing smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said while beating the horse.

"The enemy advances, I retreat......"

"When the enemy retreats, I chase after ......"

"The enemy is stationed in me to disturb ......"

After the three of them spoke, Zhu Qing was stunned for a moment, "It's a pity that Suzaku is not by our side at the moment." ”

"Huh? Does the eldest brother miss the fourth sister? "The mouth of the game is the most damaged, and the lead quipped.

"Heh, you say, this woman has a lot of taste when she gets cold, right?" The white tiger also coaxed.

Xuanwu wore a mask, and although he was not good at laughing and laughing, it was obvious that he enjoyed the atmosphere.

"Since the fourth sister is not here, I will help her with these last four words, and I will fight if the enemy is tired!" Zhu Qing said, suddenly struggling to beat the horse, only to see a long roar from the war horse, and then rushed out towards the Eight Banners Legion!

"Our goal tonight is only eight words: the enemy is stationed and we are disturbed, and the enemy is tired and I fight! Give me all the mustaches or go back! Zhu Qing "drove" and moved forward bravely!

"Drive, drive!" Hundreds of soldiers followed closely and went towards the Qing army!

"Not good! The brocade guards are sneak attacking! Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the periphery of the Qing army, and the Qing army, which had just had a little military appearance, suddenly became in a commotion!

"Archers, gunners! Give me a strike! Dorgon shouted angrily!

"Spread out!" Zhu Qing responded in time, more than 100 Jinyi guards scattered around more than 300,000 Qing troops, waving knives to intrude, so that the Qing army's long-range attackers did not know where to fight, and they were disturbed by Jinyi Guards.
