Zhang Chu received the silver from Emperor Chongzhen and began to expand in the summer of the seventh year of Chongzhen. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The main purpose of this operation was to march into the surrounding areas from Lushun and Dongjiang, and to continuously expand the sphere of influence of the security forces in the northeast.

The security forces of the brigade fought steadily, looking for villages and towns inhabited by the Houjin people, clearing them one by one, and then gathering the nearby Han people to gather together to establish a construction corps, which was not only able to carry out production self-sufficiency, but also had a certain self-defense ability, and was not afraid of the attack of a small group of Houjin people.

The actions of the security army soon caused a shock within the Houjin, and Huang Taiji personally led his troops to attack the Datong and Xuanhua areas of the Ming Dynasty, and the one who remained in the northeast was the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, Belle Dorgon.

Dolgon is also young and promising, he fought everywhere for Houjin in his teens, and has made many military exploits, and at the age of seventeen, he became the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, commanding the entire Zhengbai Banner, and is in a high position, and now he is only twenty-three years old. As the main general of Huang Taiji, Dolgon was originally indispensable in foreign battles, and according to the prior arrangement, Dolgon led the Zhengbai Banner as the backbone to attack the Chahar Department in Guihua City, and then subdued the Mongolian departments to increase the source of troops for Houjin. Unexpectedly, the eldest princess Uliangha was born and hoarded a large number of soldiers in the Naturalization City, and the Houjin people tried several times and suffered losses, and heard that the eldest princess Uliangha had married Zhang Chu, and the two sides must have formed an alliance, and the Naturalization City was attacked, and there were a large number of men and horses in Fugu who could be reinforced.

After analyzing the situation, Dolgon thought that the Mongols of the Chahar tribe who were attacking the eldest princess now did not outweigh the losses, so they should first fight the Ming Dynasty to grab the property, and then deal with the eldest princess of Guihua City after increasing their strength.

After that, Dolgon did not participate in the war against the Ming Dynasty, but stayed in Shenyang as a left-behind force to ensure the safety of the rear.

When Huang Taiji had not been gone for long, Dolgon received a report that the Houjin people around Lushun were harassed by the Ming army. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to it, because it was normal for the Ming army to reoccupy Lushun and expand a little territory. But I didn't expect that the Ming army, who had always been timid as a mouse, did too much this time. Not only did they occupy the vicinity of Lushun, but they also continued to advance northward, which directly threatened the food sources and pastures of the Houjin people. Dorgon had to take action, or else Huang Taiji asked him to guard his hometown, and he would keep his territory smaller and smaller, so what would be the matter.

However, Dolgon was also afraid of the Ming army's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and now the Ming army not only occupied Lushun, but the Ming army in the Dongjiang River was also active, which was very annoying. After thinking about it for a long time, Dorgon decided to send an elite cavalry unit to attack the newly established villages of the Ming army, and to loot them on the basis that you will not make me feel better, and I will make you uncomfortable. This is the old business of the Houjin people, and the mobility of the Houjin cavalry can easily get out when encountering the Ming army of the brigade. This can be considered a foolproof strategy.

Later, Kim Jong White Flag Niu Lu Ezhen Ajiga was called to Dolgon, and at the same time as giving the order, Dolgon had to give a final instruction.

"Ajiga, take a thousand warriors under your command to the vicinity of Lushun to attack the Han village, do you dare to go?" Dorgon asked deliberately.

"Thank you, Lord Belle, for giving me such a good errand. Ming people are like pigs and sheep in my eyes, what is there to be afraid of. Agga became excited when he heard Dorgon's command. Originally, Bai Qi didn't get the task of robbing Datong, and he was very depressed, and he was very happy that he could rob now.

"This time, you must be very careful, do not rashly advance against the enemy, stationed in Lushun City is a strong Ming army called the Security Army, if you find that their brigade will withdraw immediately, you can't fight with them." Satisfied with Aggica's high morale, Dorgon told him to be steady.

Ajiga went back and gathered all his Houjin warriors, they heard the shouting of excitement one by one, the Houjin people's expedition is for the sake of wealth and population, in recent years, every time they return with a full load, so they are very excited when they hear about the war.

Ajiga led more than a thousand Houjin cavalry and came straight in the direction of Lushun.

Ajiga didn't take Lushun's Ming army seriously, even if Dolgon specially called him to give him a lecture, he didn't take it seriously. He fought against the Ming army for many years and won countless victories, and many Ming people died under him. With the strength of more than 1,000 Houjin cavalry led by him, they can walk sideways on the territory of the Ming people, and even if they encounter tens of thousands of regular troops of the Ming army, they dare to directly confront and win. So along the way, the morale of their team was high, and everyone thought that this was a relaxing and pleasant trip, and they could rob the village of the Ming people, and they didn't have to fight hard with the Ming army brigade, so only the property they had to worry about looting could not be moved.

After many years of experience in conquest, although Ajiga did not take the Ming army seriously in his heart, he still sent out the front side in a regular manner during the operation, on the one hand, to find out the situation of the Ming army, to prevent accidents, and at the same time, to find targets for robbery.

The news soon came back that this time the Han people had become smart and did not dare to live in smaller villages, and they all gathered together to form a large village. Not far ahead, there is a large village inhabited by Han Chinese, and there should be several thousand people living there.

Ajiga couldn't help but sneer after hearing this, thousands of people living together could block the attack of the Houjin people. These Han Chinese are also too naïve. A large number of people live together and save money everywhere, and if thousands of Han Chinese are captured as slaves, it is worth it even if they don't grab much property.

"Give me a little spirit, there is a big piece of fat meat in front of me, just waiting for us to eat, remember that this time we rushed over to kill people and set fires as the main task, to make a bigger movement, so that the Han people are afraid, we can carry out the next move." If anyone just wants to steal money and don't work, don't blame me for being rude! After Ajiga finished speaking, the golden cavalry rushed towards the village in front of him after giving the order. Far away from the village, I saw wolf smoke rising in the village, it seems that the people in the village reacted quite quickly, and they have found out that the Houjin people are coming, and they lit the wolf smoke for help. However, it was in vain for the Han Chinese to do so. This village is built on the plain, with only one private house after another, and there is no danger to defend, and it is impossible to hold on to the arrival of reinforcements, let alone whether the reinforcements dare to come is still a problem.

Ajiga was not in a hurry, because he saw that although wolf smoke rose from the village, no one ran out of the village. If the people in the village come out of the village and run around, it will be troublesome, how can this slave all over the mountains be caught, and now the Han people are hugging in the village and not coming out, just to catch them.

"All of them, the village in front of the target, rush over and kill everyone who dares to resist." Aggie gave the order to charge. (To be continued.) )
