The fury in Azig's heart took a lot of perseverance to suppress it.

Seeing that he was about to break through Changping Mansion City, but the scout came to report that tens of thousands of men and horses in the Jiangning battalion had broken through the defense line he had specially set up and were coming towards Changping Mansion City, this news made Azig's heart cold, and there was no place to vent his anger, he would never dare to take risks, if he continued to increase his losses and went back, I am afraid it would be more than just cutting off his position.

The warriors of the Great Qing Kingdom are very precious, they lead the elite children of the Eight Banners Army, the tribe is not large, the young and strong are even less, the father and the emperor have worked hard to develop, and the emperor's brother is also hard, so he has cultivated the elite Eight Banners, if it is in his own hands, the loss is too great, he is a sinner, even if the emperor's brother does not punish, he will not have the face to live.

It is precisely for this reason that when he heard that the Jiangning battalion had broken through the defensive line set by himself, Azig did not dare to take risks, he had to be cautious, he had seen the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion, and he would never dare to continue to be arrogant.

This time I entered the customs, I thought that I could run rampant, and even created some miracles, but the reality was shocking, in less than a month, the loss of 30,000 soldiers and horses, this is an unbearable blow, and it is also a loss that the Qing Kingdom has never had.

Azig is a warrior of the Qing Dynasty, and has been praised by his father and the emperor's elder brother, but Azig is by no means a resourceful man, this time the army entered the pass, and the emperor's elder brother repeatedly told him to listen to the opinions of the strategists and officers, Azig did not care, and he could not make a decision when it was time to make a decision. He has an unshirkable responsibility for making a statement when he shouldn't have made a statement, causing such a big loss, so now, Azig's heart is at a loss. I don't know what to do.

The opinions of the strategists and officers are very clear, immediately withdraw from the pass, do not continue to stay in the territory of Daming, keep their own strength, and look for opportunities to make a comeback, this time they have suffered heavy losses and need to go home to rest.

Azig could only heed that.

The army began to retreat, and Azig was ignorant and was guarded in the middle by his own soldiers. After the outburst, he needs to think about the way back, and how to explain it when he goes back.

The strategist came up with the idea, because the Jiangning battalion of the Ming Dynasty rose, and the Qing army, which was caught off guard, suffered heavy losses, of course. The artillery of the Jiangning battalion will be reported as a key issue. The warriors of the Great Qing Kingdom, under the attack of artillery, suffered very heavy losses, and the artillery of the Jiangning battalion was very different from the past, and the power was much greater. Explaining these reasons, Azig, as the commander-in-chief, has not much responsibility.

Coach Azig no longer makes a decision, and the opinion of the strategists is the military order.

The news of a total retreat was delivered.

Tartars are well-trained after all, and in a short time. Begin an orderly retreat.

The strategist was still sure in his heart, and the scout who had come to report the news earlier said that the sergeant in charge of the defense, according to the prior arrangement, quickly went in the direction of Juyong Pass, and there was not much loss, but he was stunned by the artillery and lost hundreds of people.

In this way, after a day, the loss of sergeants is no more than 2,000 people, and it is still an army of about 70,000, such an army, the Jiangning battalion cannot eat, but it is still necessary to retreat quickly, and it cannot be chased and beaten by the Jiangning battalion, and the artillery of the Jiangning battalion is too powerful to be guarded against.

The news of the Tartars' retreat, the scouts quickly reported it to Su Tiancheng.

Unexpectedly, Su Tiancheng ordered the army, suspended the operation, and slowly advanced in the direction of Changping Mansion.

Hong Chengchou couldn't understand it, in his opinion, the Tartars had suffered a heavy blow and were already retreating in the direction of Juyong Pass, so at this time, the army could chase down in one go and continue to destroy the vitality of the Tartars.

Almost all soldiers have this view.

Su Tiancheng knew that he had to explain it, otherwise everyone must have doubts in their hearts.

The officers above the commander of the Jiangning battalion guard all arrived at Su Tiancheng's side, and they wanted to hold a temporary meeting.

Su Tiancheng looked at the officers beside him, and everyone's eyes showed longing, which was the desire to conquest, the desire to strike at the Tartars again.

"Brothers, I understand your thoughts, but we can't desperately pursue them."

"In this battle, we annihilated more than 30,000 Tartars and achieved a great victory, but how to get such a victory, presumably the brothers are clear, we are in Fangxian County, the 5,000 Tartars annihilated are because they are unguarded, almost no time to resist, they were completely wiped out by us, and in Fangshan County, the territory is narrow, the Tartars cannot be used, there is no preparation, only the part of being beaten."

"Our annihilation of 15,000 Tartars is a head-on battle, a real victory, but this victory, there are also many favorable conditions, our strength is 48,000 people, three times more than the Tartars, we have long been prepared, the Tartars are in a hurry, the most important thing is that the Tartars are arrogant, bent on eating us, they don't know anything about the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion, they don't even hide their whereabouts, they don't make relevant preparations, they think that after a few impacts, we will collapse, they have been fighting from the beginning, They threw all their troops, without planning, without reserves, and this extreme arrogance buried them. ”

"The most reluctantly talk about the annihilation of nearly 10,000 Tartars, we rely on, the focus is on the artillery battalion, it can be said that the artillery has broken the psychological defense line of the Tartars to the greatest extent, they have not seen the flowering shells, heavy losses, at a loss, but we can also see that the Tartars have a good tactical literacy, from the beginning of the concentrated charge, to the later scattered charge, to avoid casualties to the greatest extent, our flintlock pistols, also played an unexpected role, continuous shooting, became the most decisive straw to crush the psychological defense line of the TartarsIt was in such circumstances that we achieved an unexpected victory. ”

"By now, all our advantages have been revealed, and it can be said that the Tartars are fully prepared."

"Azig still has 70,000 people, we only have more than 50,000 people, once we push the Tartars into a hurry, they are dead and the net is broken, we may not be able to completely crush them."

"What I mean by this is not that we are afraid of war, there will always be casualties and losses in war, which is not a big deal, but what is our purpose, do we want to annihilate 100,000 Tartars at a time, to put it mildly, we don't have that kind of strength, and we can't do the thing of annihilating 100,000 Tartars, since we can't do it, we can't force the Tartars to hurry, and the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry."

"Our goal has been achieved, the Tartars have suffered heavy losses, after going back, in a short period of time, they will not dare to enter the customs, using this time, the Jiangning battalion has been strong, gathering strength, and striving to be able to start the most decisive battle with the Tartars in the shortest possible time."

"The Tartars were not able to break through Changping City, we rescued Changping City, and the next thing is to follow Azig and drive him out of the pass."

"Well, do you have any different opinions, just say it."

The crowd was silent for a long time.

In the end, Hong Chengchou spoke.

"What the adults said is reasonable, I don't have any opinions, the brothers just want to kill the Tartars, the rest of the things, there is no analysis, the truth that the adults said, it is indeed the case, if the Tartars are really urgent, the things that follow, it is not easy to predict."

After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, Su Tiancheng looked at Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Bi Maokang and others, and everyone did not speak.

"Okay, then it's decided, for the next time, we'll follow behind the Tartars and send them out of the pass, if my prediction is good, the army of Juyong Pass won't make any moves, and as for Azig, if he's still sober, he won't make any stay."

On July 6, the ninth year of Chongzhen, the 100,000 Tartars who entered the customs from Xifengkou in a fierce manner, and after losing 30,000 people, they left from Xifengkou in a gloomy manner.

The border passes of the Ming Dynasty have become quiet again.

And after this time, for a long time, Datong, Yulin, and Xuanfu have become very peaceful, and the Tartars have not rashly launched any raids, as for the Ningjin defense line, as before, there has been no change.

It is said that after Azig returned to Shenyang, he reported the situation to Huang Taiji, who turned pale and spat out a mouthful of blood, but did not blame Azig.

Perhaps Huang Taiji's ambition suffered a ruthless blow, and the weak Ming sergeant in his eyes suddenly became so powerful, which was the biggest threat to him.

If the loss of 1,000 to 2,000 sergeants is a mistake in command, and it can be withheld, but the loss of 30,000 sergeants is not something that ordinary troops can do, which shows that the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion is extraordinary, and the sudden appearance of such an army is a huge threat to the newly established Qing State.

Since then, the intelligence work against the Jiangning battalion has been fully rolled out.

Huang Taiji strictly ordered the soldiers of the Great Qing Kingdom not to think about revenge, to continue to consolidate their strength, and strive to give a devastating blow to the Jiangning battalion in the shortest possible time.

Su Tiancheng and the Jiangning battalion, who had completed the task, were ready to return to Henan Mansion, of course, Su Tiancheng made a request, imploring that more than 20,000 Datong border troops be assigned to the Jiangning battalion, and at the same time recommended Lu Xiangsheng to Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang, and suggested that Lu Xiangsheng be the governor of Datong.

During this period, Su Tiancheng returned to his home in the capital, stayed in peace for half a month, and only left when Henan Mansion was about to enter the autumn harvest season, unfortunately he could not wait for Wang Furong and Liu Ru to have children.

Su Tiancheng already knew that he was about to leave Henan Mansion, so he said that there were a lot of things that needed to be dealt with when he returned to Henan Mansion this time. (To be continued......)
