Huang Taiji's seven orifices smoked, he couldn't think of it, he thought hard about capturing the artillery of the Ming army, and finally took the life of the sergeant, the artillery was all blown up by the Ming army, but there is also something to be thankful about, that is, only two days have passed, more than 30,000 Ming troops have been wiped out, and the sergeants led by themselves have lost more than 10,000 people.

After exterminating the resisting Ming army, Huang Taiji did not hesitate at all, and led the army straight towards Dalinghe City.

On May 22, the army led by Huang Taiji met with Dolgon, at this time, Dolgon had taken the city of Montenegro, and the 10,000 Ming troops stationed in the city of Montenegro were all killed, and after the city was broken, Dolgon ordered to kill all the Ming prisoners, and not let go of any of them.

In this way, the Ming 100,000 border army, the loss of more than half, this is what makes Huang Taiji feel happy, there has been no such a major result for many years, of course, Huang Taiji will not only be satisfied with such a result, he believes that Azig chased and killed the Ming army that broke through, and he will be able to achieve a greater victory, to say that Azig on the battlefield, there is nothing to say.

Knowing that the guards of Dalinghe City, it was the Jiangning battalion soldiers, Dolgon organized the siege of the city, one day, when the loss of 5,000 soldiers, Huang Taiji was greatly surprised, the Great Qing State dispatched 200,000 soldiers this time, stayed in Guangning City and Xiping Fort, each has 5,000 people, the remaining 190,000 people, about 20,000 killed, Azig led 20,000 people to pursue the Ming army that broke through, the army is as many as 150,000 people, it can be said. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, the scale of this offensive was the largest.

Huang Taiji thought about it for a while and determined the tactics of besieging the city and sending reinforcements, and he must take Dalinghe City and Jinzhou City.

The 100,000 border troops of the Ming Dynasty lost most of them in this attack. It can be said that the guards of Liaodong are in a state of emptiness, this is the best opportunity, even if Su Tiancheng leads the Jiangning battalion to reinforce, Huang Taiji is also determined to fight hard, it will always be encountered, it is better to take advantage of the morale of the army to be high at this time. Besides, Su Tiancheng came from afar, he can make adequate preparations, from Dengzhou to Liaodong, thousands of miles, Su Tiancheng rushed to Liaodong, it was also half a month later, within such a long time. What happened, who made it clear.

When Zu Dashou led 20,000 border troops to withdraw from Yiju. A large number of scouts were sent to scout the surrounding situation.

The 20,000 border troops withdrew from Yizhou on May 19 and retreated in the direction of Dalinghe City. Besides, he is not very clear about the battle situation ahead.

The information detected by the scouts made Zu Dashou's worries come true. The army led by Chen Xinjia did not have any news. Black Mountain City and Da Ling River City were surrounded by Houjin Tartars, Zu Dashou also thought, to see if he could surprise the Hou Jin Tartars besieging Montenegro, but the information brought by the scouts made him frustrated, besieging Da Ling River City and Black Mountain City Houjin Tartars, keep in touch at any time, a distance of one hundred miles, for the cavalry, is nothing, if it is because of the rescue of the border army of Montenegro, resulting in 20,000 border troops falling into heavy encirclement, it will be a big mistake.

As the scouts continued to send information, Qian Qianyi completely changed his attitude, he knew very well that Zu Dashou's analysis was accurate, and he and Chen Xinjia might not be able to escape the punishment of the imperial court.

On May 21, Zu Dashou led 20,000 border troops, bypassing the right side of Dalinghe City, and went directly towards Shanhaiguan.

On 23 May, the 20,000 border troops finally arrived at Shanhaiguan, and the officers stationed at Shanhaiguan were greatly surprised when they saw Zu Dashou and had a premonition that something major was happening ahead.

On May 24, Zu Dale, who had entered Ningyuan City, sent a sergeant to Shanhaiguan, talking about what happened to the army, Zu Dashou felt that something was wrong, Dalinghe City and Jinzhou City must have been surrounded by Houjin Tartars, and could not pass on any information, Chen Xinjia led an army of 100,000 people, only more than 30,000 people came back, and nearly 70,000 people were killed in the battle, such a major loss has never been seen in ancient times.

On May 25, Huang Taiji personally led an army of nearly 200,000 to besiege Dalinghe City and Jinzhou City, and part of the Houjin Tartars had already come towards Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan.

There are only 100,000 soldiers guarding the Guanningjin defense line, which indicates that the Guanningjin defense line has encountered a major danger, and this situation must be played to the imperial court immediately.

Back in Ningyuan, Chen Xinjia locked himself in the governor's yamen, old tears, he couldn't have imagined that this expedition, the loss was so heavy, nearly 70,000 border troops, because of his campaign deployment died, the Guanningjin defense line encountered a major danger, if Shanhaiguan was captured, the Beijing division would suffer a catastrophe, really to that point, he Chen Xinjia no matter what, will become the Ming Dynasty sinner through the ages.

Chen Xinjia, who was in pain, did not forget to write a note to the emperor, what happened in Liaodong must be reported to the emperor and the court, and now I am afraid that only Su Tiancheng can solve this huge danger.

In the recital, Chen Xinjia pleaded guilty to the emperor, this is a sincere plea, he is not ready to commit suicide, so sorry for the nearly 70,000 border troops who died, he has to accept the punishment of the imperial court.

Tang Haitai's mood is different, he can escape and return to Ningyuan, Tang Haitai has already made up his mind, no matter what, he has to return to the capital, he can't stay in Liaodong anymore, continue to stay here, maybe his life is gone, as for the war exploits or something, it doesn't matter, he is not the boss, even if it is punished by the imperial court, it is also Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi's back, and it has nothing to do with him, Tang Haitai is very relieved, Ningyuan City will not have anything to do for the time being, even if the Houjin Tartars come to attack, the imperial court will definitely find a way, You just need to get out of here as soon as possible.

After Zu Dale returned to Ningyuan City, he cried a lot, he knew that Zu Dabi had no hope of surviving, and he led more than 10,000 soldiers back to Ningyuan City, these 10,000 sergeants were carried back by more than 30,000 soldiers with blood, and the loss was too miserable, and when Zu Dabi was separated, Zu Dabi's words all came to mind.

A day later, the speculation was confirmed, and the scouts who came back reported that Zu Dabi was killed, and the 20,000 soldiers led by Zu Dabi were all killed, and no one surrendered.

After getting the news, Zu Dale lay in the house all day.

When Zu Dale entered the governor's yamen, his face was pale, if he said that on the battlefield of fighting, he couldn't lose his temper, he couldn't be held accountable, he did that, everything was for the overall situation, but when he returned to Ningyuan, Zu Dale wouldn't pay so much attention to it, he paid nearly 70,000 border soldiers' lives, Zu Dabi was also killed, such a loss, didn't Chen Xinjia touch.

The officials of the governor's yamen did not dare to stop Zu Dale, they already knew the news of the defeat of the expedition, and they also knew that Zu Dabi had been killed, and the death of Zu Dabi confirmed that he could return to Ningyuan to protect the governor.

Zu Dale kicked open the wing.

Chen Xinjia and Tang Haitai were both in the wing, seeing the angry Zu Dale, Tang Haitai wanted to lose his temper, but when he thought of the things on the road, he held back and didn't speak.

"Lord Chen, my subordinates want to come and ask, why is this happening."

Chen Xinjia's face was ashen, he looked at Zu Dashou, stood up, and saluted Zu Dale, Chen Xinjia is the governor of Liaodong, Zu Dale is just the deputy chief soldier, and there is a huge gap between the identities of the two.

"General Zu, Zu Dabi died, this is my responsibility, I will not shirk the responsibility, I have written a letter to the emperor, waiting for the disposal of the imperial court, thanks to General Zu for his protection all the way, I was able to return to Ningyuan, and now the Jin Tatars are threatening Dalinghe City, Jinzhou City, Ningyuan City and Shanhaiguan, the Guanningjin defense line is facing great danger, I am not qualified to command the soldiers of Liaodong, I implore General Zu and the soldiers of the Yulin battalion to hold Ningyuan City, and there can be no problems with the Guanningjin defense line."

Thinking of Zu Dale, who lost his temper, when he heard Chen Xinjia say this, he was stunned for a while, people already know that he was wrong, what else can you do, thinking of Zu Dabi who died in battle, Zu Dale's eyes turned red.

"Lord Chen, I also know that victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, no one dares to guarantee victory every time, I followed Lord Su and captured Dalinghe City, and even took the city of Montenegro, at that time, Lord Su decided to withdraw to Dalinghe City, and no one was allowed to mention the matter of the Golden Tartar after the attack, I still don't understand it very well, now I finally know, I don't mean that I must blame Lord Chen, I don't have such qualifications, but if Lord Chen consulted Lord Su, will there be the current situation, I still know Lu Dao, If it weren't for Lord Su going to the capital and asking Lord Hong to take charge of the defense of the Guanningjin defense line, what would be the situation now, I don't know if Lord Chen had thought about it. ”

Chen Xinjia's eyes were also red.

"What General Zu said is yes, this is all jealousy, I am not familiar with fighting and fighting, but I led 100,000 border troops, which led to such heavy losses, Master Su is the Governor of Jiliao, I didn't think of consulting Lord Su, this is all my fault, I said it, I will not shirk responsibility."

After Zu Da left with a snort, Tang Haitai spoke.

"My lord, the lower officials think that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and Zu Dale is too much, how can you ask your lord, if you return to the capital, Xia Guan must be a remnant of Zu Dale, it is really a martial artist."

Chen Xinjia looked at Tang Haitai, there was no color in his eyes, he had experienced a big defeat, he was much more sober, thinking about Qian Qianyi and Tang Haitai around him, especially this Tang Haitai, at the critical moment, he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and now he is still thinking about impeaching his life-saving benefactor, what kind of virtue is this.

"Lord Tang, needless to say, everything has its own judgment of the imperial court, this official has already written a recital, I don't have anything to do here, if you have to be free, go and help defend the city." (To be continued......)
