Recommended Reading: Tens of thousands of Qing troops were unable to attack thousands of Ming troops outside Shanhaiguan for a long time, not only losing tens of thousands, but also being so angry that the commander of the division, Hao Ge, was so angry that he repeatedly vomited blood. At this time, Huang Taiji finally couldn't sit still, and personally led the Yellow Flag army to the battlefield.

At this time, whether it was Huang Taiji, Dolgon or anyone, they had already understood: the Ming army had no conspiracy and tricks, and it did not plan to attack Ningyuan, and some were just this little bit of troops. However, with such a small number of troops, Haoge's Four Banners army couldn't defeat it for so many days, not to mention Huang Taiji, even Dolgon's face was a little unbearable, after all, the Ming army was their common enemy.

After Huang Taiji and other Manchu nobles arrived at the battlefield, the first thing was, of course, to visit the "sick" Haoge. Before entering the Qing army camp, everyone saw a Ming warship swaying back and forth on the coast, and the Qing army had to move the camp three miles away from the coast in order to avoid artillery bombardment. Since Nurhachi raised his army, the Qing army has never been so cowardly, and Huang Taiji and others are all stunned.

After the enemy's science and science love, he hated Yue Mo to seal the feather

When he saw Haoge, Huang Taiji was even more angry and painful. It's only been a few days, and Hauge has already made the Ming army toss bloodless, described as emaciated, and can't even sit up when lying on the bed. Just as he was about to say hello to the "Emperor Ama", the "Hauge's Song" floated over at the right time, and Dolgonco was standing next to him, Hauge was so excited that he almost fainted.

Huang Taiji had no choice but to order Haoge to be sent back to Shenyang to recuperate. At this time, there was no distinction between the main teacher and the partial teacher, since the "master" had arrived, naturally all the Qing troops were under his command. Huang Taiji hurriedly summoned the kings Baylor and the main generals to discuss how to fight next.

Sony was the first to speak, reporting on the previous combat experience. Prince Azig said impatiently before he finished listening: "How powerful I am when I am a Ming army, it turns out that Haoge is reluctant to dispatch my Eight Banners army!" Didn't Sony say it just now, as soon as the two generals Aobai and Kubilong set out, they suppressed the Ming army. As for the broken ship, I don't think it's a big deal, how many shots can it fire? If you want me to say, just fight like this, but you have to invest more cavalry troops and strive to break it in one fell swoop. ”

Most of the others agreed with Azig, with the exception of Dolgon, who was silent. Although Huang Taiji didn't like Dorgon, he still relied on him militarily, so he asked, "Old Fourteen, what do you think?" ”

Dolgon pondered for a while before saying, "Your Majesty, it seems that our guess was wrong in advance, and the thousands of people in the Ming army seem to have nothing to fear.

Everyone, please think about it, now in order to avoid the shelling of warships, our encirclement in the south of the Ming army has retreated three miles to the west, giving the Ming army a way to retreat. According to common sense, the Ming army has been fighting for so many days, and the casualties must be not small, and there are no reinforcements outside, so they should think about breaking through no matter what. But they don't have any intention of breaking through, isn't it strange? ”

"Maybe the Ming army is no longer able to break through, or it is afraid of our army's plan, and it will be encircled and annihilated after it is prominent, so it simply defends." Huang Taiji groaned.

"It's also possible." "But could it be that the Ming army used these thousands of people as bait to try to tie us here, and then sent a large number of warships to bombard us?" Not to mention anything else, the Yellow Dragon on Phi Island has dozens of large and small warships, and once the Yellow Dragon arrives, I am afraid it will be even more difficult for us to win. Even if Huanglong does not come, our army will mobilize the people, and it will cost countless money and food, if it continues to be consumed like this, even if it eats these thousands of Ming troops, it will be worth the loss. ”

"Although what you said is reasonable, but the Ming army deceived me too much, if I don't wipe it out, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart!" Huang Taiji was angry.

Dolgon hurriedly said: "The courtiers are not trying to persuade the emperor to withdraw his troops, but our method of attack must be changed, so that the loss of a hard attack is too great." ”

"Oh?" Huang Taiji's eyes lit up, "Tell me, how to change the law?" ”

Dolgon sneered: "The people that the Ming army relies on are nothing more than cannons and birds. However, after many days of fierce fighting, their ammunition consumption was so great that it was no longer possible to fight as fiercely as before. Didn't they dig a trench? We can also dig, but we don't dig flat, but directly to the Ming army. After digging, let the Han army flag soldiers go forward from the trench, and then kill them when they are almost in front of the Ming army, so that they can avoid the Ming army's shells and birds? When a melee is formed in front, our Manchurian warriors will cover up and kill from behind, and they will definitely succeed in the first battle! ”

Huang Taiji was overjoyed when he heard this, and everyone had to admire Dorgon's resourcefulness. The plan was decided, and Huang Taiji immediately ordered the Qing army to start digging trenches. This kind of dirty work is of course a matter of the Han Army's banner, but for these traitors, as long as they are not allowed to die, they are still happy to do it.

Soon, the Qing army dug two trenches from the south, west, and north, and gradually extended to the Ming army's position.

When the Ming army discovered the new movements of the Qing army, they immediately took-for-tat action. The artillery began to bombard the Qing army in the area of the earthen wall again, and at the same time, a small part of the Ming army again took the initiative to attack the enemy who were digging trenches. Many Han army banner soldiers were killed, but in this way, Huang Taiji and others believed that the Ming army was most afraid of this hand, so they simply invested more troops to dig trenches.

This trick really worked, although the Qing army was not good at earthwork, but it was better than the large number of people, even under the interference of the Ming army, the six trenches still slowly extended forward. All the Qing troops who hid in the trenches were really safe, and those who were killed were all soldiers outside the trenches.

And after the Ming army fought hard, maybe it was found that the effect was not good, or maybe it was really that the ammunition was running out, so they had to stop firing and only use Lu Mi to snipe from a distance. In the past few days, the Ming army has not been idle, in addition to fighting, but also set up a high platform several feet high in the car formation, snipers are condescending on the high platform, shooting is more convenient and accurate. When the trenches extended to within 100 paces of the Ming army's position, snipers could even hit the Qing troops standing in the trenches. However, after all, there are very few snipers that can be accommodated on the high platform, and the reloading time of the Lumi gun is long, and it cannot hit the Qing army squatting and digging in the earth, but it only slightly slows down the advance of the Qing army.

After two days and two nights, the six trenches were finally less than fifty paces away from the Ming army's trenches, and Huang Taiji, Dolgon and others thought that they could launch an attack. They specially selected to start at the third watch, and a large number of Han army banner soldiers quietly sneaked into the trench, and gradually approached the Ming army's position with their waists bent.

As soon as the third watch arrived, the Qing army sounded the horn of attack, and a large number of soldiers immediately climbed out of the trenches and rushed to the Ming army's position with shouts. Surprisingly, the Ming army did not fight back, is it really exhausted?

It was too late to say that it was too late, and hundreds of Qing troops had already attacked the Ming army's trenches. The trench wasn't too deep, but it was quite wide, and the sandbag wall on the opposite side was so high that you had to jump down and climb up from the other side. The Qing army jumped off the trench one after another, and was about to climb up, when they suddenly saw countless torches thrown overhead, and the flames in the trench rose into the air!
