Chapter 17 Siege Wei to save Zhao, the empty city is now! (c)
Outside Santun Fort. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The camp outside the city has been set up, and in the big tent of the Chinese army, Huang Taiji is looking at the strategic situation map in front of him with an excited face.
"Master, Mr. Fan is here!"
"Oh, please! Please! β
After speaking, I saw Fan Wencheng striding in with an excited face.
"Congratulations to the Great Khan! Congratulations to the Great Khan! β
Fan Wencheng said with a compliment.
Hearing this, Huang Taiji was also happy on his face, but after an instant, he recovered as before, but he pretended to ask.
"Mr. Fan, why did he say this!"
Seeing Huang Taiji asking like this, Fan Wencheng continued to compliment and smiled.
"Yuan Chonghuan's army gathered in Jizhou and Tongzhou, isn't it a happy event?"
"Haha, Mr. Fan, you-"
Hearing Fan Wencheng's words, Huang Taiji no longer hid the excitement in his heart, but laughed loudly.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden roar, but the earth shook - "Boom! β
There was a loud bang, and thenβ"Whoa! Crash! β
There was a little rubble, but the sand and gravel fell from the top of the tent, and the scene was a mess.
"Great Khan be careful!"
Seeing this, Fan Wencheng immediately protected the Huang Taiji beside him.
"Escort! Escort! β
For a time, the guards of the Zhenghuang Banner of Huang Taiji inside and outside the big tent were protecting him.
"Mr. Fan, thank youβ"
For Fan Wencheng who sacrificed himself to protect the lord just now, Huang Taiji was still very satisfied.
"This is the duty of a slave."
Speaking of this, Fan Wencheng suddenly felt that his 'minion' claimed to be so smooth since he didn't know when.
"Well, Mr. Fan, Mr. Bowen, but I don't know what it was before, but there was such a movement."
Huang Taiji is not polite much, after all, in his eyes, it is okay to express it with his own minion, there is no need to take it so seriously, he respects Fan Wencheng, that is because he is still valuable, but the loud bang before made him a little frightened, and this voice seemed familiar to him.
Seeing his master ask, Fan Wencheng thought for a moment, but he also frowned, but he said.
"According to the minions' opinion, I am afraid that it is the red-clothed cannon of the Ming army, but the area around this Santun Fort has been cleaned by Bel Azig, according to the spies reported that Yuan Chonghuan has been staying in the old camp in Jizhou, where did this Ming army come from? How do you know where my camp is? β
Fan Wencheng was a little puzzled.
"Azig, bastard, what the hell!"
Hearing Fan Wencheng's words, Huang Taiji couldn't help but scold.
At this moment, a spy hurried in.
"Report! Returning to the Great Khan, all the artillery fire of the Ming army fell in the small woods five miles away from our camp, except for the casualties of some soldiers who went out to hunt, there were no other casualties. β
"Great Khan, presumably this is a test artillery operation of the Ming army, and the minions think that if Yuan Chonghuan already knows where the Great Khan's camp is, he is afraid that the few artillery fires will not fall in the grove five miles away."
Hearing the report of the spies, Fan Wencheng seemed to think of something, and now these words are also the best explanation for the previous artillery incident.
"It can only be like this, this thing is really an artifact, it's a pity-"
Huang Taiji nodded, his face was gloomy, but it was a sigh, this thing was a deep memory for him, it was in this artillery fire that his father Khan was killed that day, and he was also defeated in the recent battle of Ningyuan. It's a pity that this thing is regarded as a treasure by the Ming army, but he has never been able to get it, so he has a love and hate for this thing.
Fan Wencheng naturally knew his master's troubles, but this red-clothed cannon was far beyond his reach, and he had also tried to steal a few from the Ming army many times, but this thing weighed as much as a thousand catties, and Yuan Chonghuan regarded it as a pearl in his palm, how could he succeed in stealing it.
Therefore, it is also a sigh.
At this time, it was in a valley ten miles away from Houjin's camp.
"General He, this is the farthest range of the Hongyi Cannon."
The junior colonel of the first army looked helplessly at He Kegang on the side.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's move another place and put a few more shots on him!"
-- But it was said that outside the city of Zunhua, the big tent of the Azig Chinese army.
"What?! There is such a thing, you said that the loud noise coming from Santun Fort was that the Ming army was attacking! β
Hearing the words of the two leaders who claimed to have come from the Emperor's tent to ask for help, Azig was shocked.
But he said that he was puzzled when the cannon shook the sky before, and the news that he had thought of a moment to ask for help came.
"You wait to go down first, tell the Great Khan, and say that Azig will go to the rescue immediately!"
After thinking for a moment, Azig no longer hesitated, but said.
But said that the tragic death of his mother three years ago, Azig he remembered it vividly, and he knew the poison of Huang Taiji, in his opinion, whether this news is true or not, as long as it is about Huang Taiji, he can't be indifferent, not to mention that he can hear the previous bursts of artillery fire is indeed coming from Santunbao, and according to the news, the Huang Taiji Chinese army tent at this time is located here.
"Immediately Mingjin retreats! Tell Dorgon to retreat with his army! If he doesn't tie up, he will kidnap him! β
"What?! Collect the troops! No, seeing that the Ming army can't hold on, you talk to Azig, just say give me Dolgon half a pillar of incense time, and I will immediately break through Zunhua City! β
When Azig's subordinate General Melzhen Akzhan delivered the order, Dolgon was once again preparing for the next round of charge, and he could not agree to the order to withdraw his troops.
"Fourteenth master, the twelfth master said, if you don't want to, the little one can only be offended, come on, tie up!"
At this time, Dolgon seemed to forget that at this time, he was in the Azig military camp, and the ones he commanded were all Azig's white flag army, and now that the banner owner Azig ordered the withdrawal of the army, these white flag soldiers naturally had to obey the orders of the flag master.
"Akzhan, if you dare to tie me up, you can't do it!"
Seeing that the Meler Ezhen named Akzhan wanted to tie himself up, Dolgon shouted, but it was only a shout, Dolgon understood, after all, this is Azig's territory, and Akzhan is one of the two major Mele Ezhen under Azig, and now Akzhan wants to tie himself up, obviously on Azig's orders.
It's just that what Dolgon doesn't understand is that Zunhua City is about to be broken, why does Azig want to withdraw his troops at this time?
After Dolgon was tied up, the Houjin army began to slowly withdraw from the battlefield.
"Retreat! The Tartars are back! β
At the head of Zunhua City, the retreat of the Houjin soldiers was naturally seen by the Ming army, but Zhao Shujiao was a little excited in his heart at this time, he knew that it must be Yuan Chonghuan's plan that worked.
"It's up to us next."
Zhao Shujiao thought to himself in his heart.
"Lord Wang, you are preparing for the transfer of the people of the whole city, and when Zhao rushes to kill him, it will also increase the morale of our army! Let's see you in the old three forts outside Zunhua City! β
After explaining to Wang Yuanya, Zhao Shujiao turned around and went down to the city.
"General Zhao take care all the way!"
"Lord Wang is relieved."
"Soldiers, the time has come for revenge, for the dead brothers, for the villagers who died tragically in Santunbao, soldiers, go out with the generals! Feng will bow to the marquis, when it is today, kill! β
But it was said that the two thousand Ning Yuan elites rushed out of the city, like a tiger preying in the forest.
The so-called yes, the hungry tiger is looking for food, retreating three miles!
However, the hungry tiger in front of him was facing a group of hungry wolves who were also hungry and thirsty.
"Raise the gun! Put! β
The sound of firecrackers sounded from the horse team of Guan Ning's iron cavalry, but it was vivid, and a dense network of firepower was formed in an instant, and at the other end, the Azig army that was eager to retreat was obviously slightly inferior.
"His grandmother's, retreat a bear, I don't believe in this evil!"
Seeing the flags around him falling, a Jia La'e named Fucha Ha was already red-eyed.
"Brothers, Guan Ningjun is too deceitful, brothers, copy guys!"
After that, Fucha Ha was about to turn his horse's head and want to lead his Jiala team to make a counter-charge against the Guan Ning army that was chasing.
"Fuchaha, what the hell can you do? Azigebel gave the order, and the whole army retreated, do you want to disobey Lord Baylor's military orders?! β
Seeing that Fucha Hachu wanted to lead the Jiala team of thousands of people under his command to attack the Guanning army, Meler Ezhen Akzhan was busy scolding.
Although the Fucha Jiala team was not affiliated with him, he did not want to see any more losses in the white flag.
"Lord Akzhan!"
Hearing Mel Ezhen Akzhan's words, although Fucha Hachu was extremely unwilling, he was helpless.
The so-called crushing of people at the level of officials and universities is precisely this reason -- at this moment, news suddenly came from the Azig battalion of the rear army.
'The rear army became the front army, the former army became the rear army, the whole army came closer, and the shield armor was covered with cooked cowhide, and it shrank in the shape of a turtle! But the heralds were running back and forth among tens of thousands of troops.
"It must have been the idea of the Fourteenth Master!"
Fucha Hachu, who was still a little angry before, suddenly lit up in front of him, his own coach Azig he knew, Yongmeng didn't say it, and Zhiji didn't say it, but he was extremely irritable, for a grumpy person, it was impossible to think of a way to block the opposite firearm with cooked cowhide shield armor.
"It deserves to be our Dakin's 'Morgan Daiqing'!"
Fucha Hachu said with sincere admiration.
At this time, as Azig retreated, Dolgon looked at his twelve brothers with anger on his face.
Azig didn't say much, and let the younger brother roar at him with an almost roaring rage.
After a roar, seeing that his twelfth brother did not blame himself, but quickly recovered his state of mind, but slowed down his tone.
"Brother Twelve, why did you withdraw the army, you have to let the younger brother know."
"The Ming army raided the camp of the Great Khan."
Seeing that his fourteenth brother was finally angry enough, Azig said simply and simply.
"What?! There is such a thing, but how is this possible, how can there be footprints of the Ming army within a radius of dozens of miles, it stands to reason that at this time, the Ming army should be deployed to defend thistles, through the first line to prepare for a decisive battle with our army, these three tun forts were captured not long ago, how could the Ming army suddenly appear? β
Hearing Azig say this, Dolgon's heart suddenly had a lot of confusion.
"Twelfth brother, did the fourth brother really send someone to ask for help?"
Dolgon asked with some reluctance in his heart.
"I sent two Kala Ezhen."
Azig's face was still unwavering.
"What about people?"
"Sent back."
"What?! Pie--sent back. β
Hearing this, Dolgon's mouth was half an inch longer, he couldn't figure out that although he, the twelfth brother, was usually a little grumpy, but he was absolutely leakless when he started fighting, how could he put the person sent by the Great Khan for help back today? I don't ask if it's true or not, but if it's the enemy's plan.
"There was indeed the sound of the Ming army's red-clothed artillery fire in Santun Fort just now, which is not available in our army, you should know that your fourth brother's camp is there."
At this point, Azig said no more, and despite the doubts on Dorgon's face, he jumped forward and stepped forward.
Hearing this, Dolgon suddenly paused as if he had been shocked, and for a moment he seemed to understand something, and for a moment he seemed to understand nothingβ"General, the Tartars cover their shields with cooked cowskins, but the iron bullets of the brethren are difficult to penetrate. β
"The whole army stops the pursuit and quickly joins Governor Wang!"
After all, the number of opponents is several times that of their own, and they do not have an advantage in melee combat when they rush into the enemy's formation, so when long-distance shooting no longer works, the Guanning army stopped chasing.
"Dolgon, this son must be my great enemy!"
Looking at the Houjin army in the distance, Zhao Shujiao sighed.
Guan Ningjun did not say anything about the temporary retreat, but said that at this time, Huang Taiji was in the big tent of the march.
"What? And where Azig is back? Could it be that Zunhua City has been breached? Hey, no, since Zunhua City has been breached, what is he doing when he comes back? β
Hearing that Azig had returned to the camp, Huang Taiji frowned unconsciously.
"Brother to the Great Khan!"
Azig was dressed in military uniform, but he came in the dust, followed by Dorgon.
"Twelfth brother, fourteenth brother, why do you need to be so polite between you and my brothers, please hurry up!"
Although he had doubts in his heart, Huang Taiji's face was still full of spring breeze.
"Presumably, Zunhua City is already in the hands of my Dajin, but I don't know what the twelfth brother is doing when he returns from the front line at this time?"
Huang Taiji looked at Azig but said with a smile.
Hearing this, Azig's face suddenly turned embarrassed, in fact, when he returned to the camp, he had already sensed that something was wrong, he was obviously orderly, how could he be attacked, but he obviously heard the roar of artillery fire, what was going on? But he was also puzzled in his heart.
However, at this moment, in the face of Huang Taiji's inquiry, he did not dare to hide it in the slightest.
"Back to the Great Khan, the younger brother of the minister - the younger brother of the minister has not yet succeeded in capturing Zunhua, but he suddenly heard the roar of artillery fire in the direction of Santun Fort, and saw that the Great Khan sent Jiala Ezhen and the two to the army to ask for help, so Azig returned to the division to come to the rescue."
"What?! Zunhua has never been captured. You're going back to the division to save the driver?! β
Hearing Azig's words, Huang Taiji's face changed suddenly, and gradually became gloomy.
"Help?! What do you save! Didn't Ben Khan stay here for a long time? What do you want to save? You said! Zunhua has not been captured for a long time, and you actually led your division back to the camp, do you know that you have ruined the big thing of Ben Khan! Event! β
Huang Taiji almost roared.
At this time, Azig was already on his knees with a pale face.
"Starling, don't scold the twelfth brother, this matter is also -"
Seeing that Azig was scolded by Huang Taiji like this, Dolgon on the side couldn't help but say.
"Don't scold, Ben Khan scolded you for being good to you, hum, and you, Dolgon, it's not okay to stay in Mang Gurtai's army, but I'm going to go to Azig's army, Ben Khan heard that because of you, he actually let go of Zhao Shujiao, hum, I'll tell you about this later!"
"Starling, I-"
Dolgon never thought that because of himself, the news of Zhao Shujiao's escape would reach Huang Taiji's ears so quickly, but at this moment, Dolgon was afraid for a while.
"Great Khan, this matter is not to blame the fourteenth brother, it is all the fault of the younger brother, the Great Khan, if you want to blame, you will blame the younger brother, and the younger brother is willing to take full responsibility."
Seeing that Huang Taiji talked about Zhao Shujiao, Azig was busy.
Hearing Azig's words, Huang Taiji snorted coldly.
"Take full responsibility? How can you afford it! β
"Iβ"
Azig was a little speechless for a moment.
For a while, the whole scene was extremely embarrassing, and seeing that the matter was a little unbearable, Fan Wencheng on the side said something.
"Great Khan, the slave thinks that this matter is not entirely to blame for Azigbele, Lord Belle led the army back to the division and was also eager to escort him, but it is a pity that the Ming army is cunning, and Lord Belle has fallen for the Ming army's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain."
Fan Wencheng had already heard the words of the two of them, but the ins and outs of the matter were also a little eyebrow-raising, so when Fan Wencheng said this, the whole scene was a little relaxed for a while.
"Today, Mr. Fan pleads for you and lets you go."
Hearing this, Azig and Dolgon cast their gratitude to Fan Wencheng on the side one after another.
However, Huang Taiji's words did not end there, but continued.
"However, the punishment of guilt is the foundation of my Dajin's foothold, Azig blindly withdrew his troops, delayed the warplane, and the punishment was reduced from Baylor to Beizi, Dolgon's misuse of troops caused the enemy general to escape, and fined 100 cattle and sheep, are you two willing to accept the guilt?"
Huang Taiji said with a resolute face.
"Brother is willing to take it!"
"But I think of you two protectors, this crime is temporarily stored, Ben Khan wants you to quickly reorganize the army, and then take Zunhua, have you two been willing?"
Seeing that the two of them were willing to accept the guilt, Huang Taiji changed his tone and said suddenly.
"Thank you, Great Khan!"
Receiving the order again, Dolgon was already in a cold sweat, and today he finally understood that his fourth brother's methods were really powerful, and he was able to do everything under his control.
Thinking of this, Dolgon's heart was full of fear.
"Soldiers of the White Banner, today's mistake of my Azig has disgraced you, are you willing to follow Bengu Mountain Ezhen again and conquer Zunhua City again! to wash away your shame! β
"Yes! Willing! β
While Dorgon was still secretly afraid, Azig had already reorganized his soldiers not far away, and his morale was like a rainbow for a while.
