"Attack! Offensive! "The Qing soldiers under Rufeng Mountain, under the orders of the generals behind, kept pouring towards the Tiger Dawei Department on Rufeng Mountain. Hu Dawei kept ordering the musketeers and archers to shoot down the mountain, and the Hongyi cannons on the mountain also kept firing shells, smashing at the Qing soldiers below the mountain, and the Qing soldiers suffered heavy losses.

The commanders of the Qing army under the command of the mountain, Nikan and Haoge, saw the sharp artillery of the Ming army on the mountain, and hurriedly ordered Kong Youde to transfer ten artillery pieces to start shelling Rufeng Mountain.

"Not good! Tiger general, the Tartars are with cannons! Wang Pu, the deputy chief soldier of Datong, ran over to Hu Dawei in a panic and said. Our musketeers and archers have suffered considerable losses, and the Tartars are already approaching the foot of the mountain! ”

"I see!" Hu Dawei said with a solemn face, "Inspector Hong and the prince ordered us to defend Rufeng Mountain to the death, not to be taken away by the Tartars, and tell the soldiers to find a hiding place to hide when the Tartars are shelling, so as to reduce casualties, you go and call Huang Qianhu of the artillery battalion." ”

After a while, the commander of the artillery battalion, Qianhu Huang Tianshou, trotted all the way to Hu Dawei and said, "What is the matter with the general general?" ”

Hu Dawei took him to the top of the mountain, pointed to the cannon fired by the Qing army in the distance below the mountain, and asked, "Huang Qianhu, is there a way to knock out the cannon of the Tartar under the mountain?" The cannons of this Tartar pose a great threat to our troops. ”

Huang Tianshou pointed at the bottom of the mountain with his finger, shook his head and said, "Lord Commander, I'm afraid this is difficult, our twenty cannons are all placed on the top of the mountain, even if they are condescending, they can only hit three miles at most, and now the cannons of the Tartars are placed four miles away, and they can't reach the cannons of the Tartars!" ”

Hu Dawei thought for a moment and said, "The Tartar cannon has already caused the soldiers on the mountain to lose more than 300 people, and if the Tartar approach step by step, it will be very bad." If the general army has a way to get the Tartar cannons into the three-mile area, are you sure to bomb them down? ”

Huang Tianshou patted his chest and said, "As long as this Tartar cannon enters my three-mile range, the last general will hold his head and vouch for it, and there will be no return for these Tartar artillery!" ”

Hauge and Nikan under the mountain saw that their artillery really pressed the Ming army's defense strength on the mountain, and they were overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered Kong Youde to transport ten more guns to help. As soon as Kong Youde heard the order, he rode over and said, "Lord Wang, Baylor, adding ten more artillery pieces is not a problem, but if our artillery goes further, it will enter the range of the Ming army's artillery, and the Ming army's artillery is condescending, and our artillery will be dangerous!" ”

Nikan was furious, "What time is it? King Shunyi, you patronize the safety of your Han Eight Banners artillery, and you don't care about the lives of my Eight Banners warriors? Besides, the emperor strictly ordered me and the prince to take down this Rufeng Mountain, otherwise we will be blamed! Can you afford it? ”

Kong Youde thought about it for a while, and said in his heart, "Yes, I'd better listen to the order, although my own artillery is my own housekeeping weapon, but in this big war, I really can't hide my secrets." He then ordered ten artillery pieces to be brought in and fired shells at Rufeng Mountain.

When the Qing soldiers approached the foot of the mountain, the Ming artillery on Rufeng Mountain also began to fire, and after each three sounds, there was a pause, and the Hongyi cannon had a weakness, that is, it must be cooled down after three rounds, otherwise there was a danger of exploding. The Qing army at the foot of the mountain took advantage of the artillery pause and roared and rushed to the mountain, the Ming army's musketeers and archers hurriedly opened fire, and the Qing soldiers who charged kept falling to the ground, the front charge was the Mongolian Eight Banners, which was used as cannon fodder by the Qing soldiers, and the prince of the Mongolian Eight Banners watched his soldiers continue to fall to the ground, and his heart was both depressed and sad and did not dare to speak, so he could only silently watch the tragic situation on the battlefield in front of him.

At this moment, the Qing army in front broke out into cheers, the first line of defense of the Ming army had been breached, and the foot soldiers of the first line of defense of the Ming army had already fought hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army on the position.

Hu Dawei saw this scene on the mountainside of the second line of defense, and suddenly felt dizzy, he couldn't hold Rufeng Mountain like this, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to shoot an arrow into the sky to inform the Ming army camp near Songshan.

Zhou Renyuan and Hong Chengchou in the Ming army camp heard the arrows and hurriedly rushed out of the big tent, Zhou Renyuan looked at the direction of Rufeng Mountain and said, "Supervisor, the first line of defense of Rufeng Mountain has been lost, it seems that we have to support Rufeng Mountain!" ”

Hong Chengchou anxiously walked around in front of the big tent and said, "Lord Wang, I didn't expect this first line of defense to be lost so quickly, just now I heard the sound of artillery, presumably the Tartars also brought artillery to attack Rufeng Mountain, and there are quite a few of them." Support must be supported, but the governor is worried that Huang Taiji is attacking Jinzhou and Rufeng Mountain, but in fact, he is trying to lure my army to go out, and set up an ambush halfway! ”

Zhou Renyuan said, "It's okay! This Rufeng Mountain is less than thirty miles away from my camp, I led the cavalry to raid the Qing army at the foot of the mountain, and the superintendent led the army to move forward slowly, even if the Tartars set up an ambush halfway, I will immediately send someone to warn, my cavalry is mobile and flexible, once the Tartar ambush meets, the superintendent army rushes to a counter-encirclement. Besides, the Tartars are now besieging Jinzhou no less than 30,000, and if they want to turn around to help, it will take an hour, once the Tartars of Jinzhou turn around, the ancestors in the city will go out of the city to attack the rear of the Tartars, and under the attack of the two compartments, the Tartars will be defeated! ”

Hong Chengchou suddenly asked: "Then will the ancestor of Jinzhou really go out of the city and attack the two sides as the prince said?" ”

Zhou Renyuan said with a smile: "Zu Dashou, as a veteran who has fought on the battlefield for many years, how could he see such a good opportunity and let it go in vain? ”

Hong Chengchou nodded silently and said, "Okay, it's best if there are no ambushes, if there are really Tartar ambushes, do as the prince says!" Someone, prepare to send troops! ”

Zhou Renyuan led 9,000 cavalry to Rufeng Mountain, and sent Shen Tieshan to lead 1,000 cavalry as the vanguard to detect whether there was an ambush of the Qing army ahead, and he and 8,000 cavalry slowly advanced according to a defensive posture.

Shen Tieshan ordered his forwards to divide into a team of 100 people, and each pair searched both sides of the mountain road at an interval of 100 steps. There was silence in the mountains and forests on the side of the road, and in the mountains and forests for 300 steps, a Qing scout quietly came to Aobai's side and said, "Zhang Jing, the Ming army really came to reinforcements." ”

Aobai, who was napping, quickly got up and asked, "How many people are here?" ”

"It seems that it is less than a thousand, this Ming army seems to be an outpost, they are very cautious, and they are divided into several teams to search, they are very cautious." The scout said.

Ao Bai frowned when he heard this, "The more cautious the Ming army is, the more it means that the Ming army must be coming behind, go and send someone to inform the prince and Baylor to know." One of the guards hurriedly mounted his horse and informed Haug and Nikan.

On Shen Tieshan's side, a cavalryman ran to Shen Tieshan's side, pointed to the woods and whispered a few words, Shen Tieshan's eyes flashed, and one of his cavalrymen found that something was wrong from the leaves of the woods with the hoof prints of war horses, and hurriedly informed himself.

Shen Tieshan considered that the number of Tartar ambushes in the mountains and forests was unknown, so he decided to pretend to continue the search first, and then send someone to inform Zhou Renyuan behind.

After Zhou Renyuan received the report, he had an idea, the forest is not big, and the Qing soldiers can't hide too many people, that is, there is a chance to destroy the Tartar ambush soldiers in this forest, but the number of people is unknown, so it is better to be safe. So he summoned He Renlong and ordered a few words, and when He Renlong heard it, he hurriedly said, "The prince has a clever plan, and the last general will go!" As he spoke, he waved his arm and said, "The cavalry of Xuanfu will follow me." The three thousand Xuanfu cavalry rushed forward.

Besides, Ao Bai was ordered by Huang Taiji this time to bring 10,000 soldiers and horses to ambush here and wait for reinforcements to snipe the Ming army. Huang Taiji knew that Rufeng Mountain was very important to both the Ming and Qing armies, and he gathered heavy troops to attack Rufeng Mountain, and did not forget to set up an ambush just in case.

Ao Bai was in the woods and was ready to go, and the scout ran over and said, "Zhang Jing, the reinforcements behind the Ming army are coming, three thousand people, all cavalry are converging with the vanguard in front of the Ming army!" ”

"Oh? This Ming army actually sent all cavalry? Ao Bai weighed in his heart, among the 10,000 soldiers he led, there were only 3,000 cavalry, and the rest were all infantry and archers, Huang Taiji's order was that if most of the Ming army could not fight, his troops needed to join the large army attacking Rufeng Mountain, and if he encountered a small number of reinforcements, he could be the master to annihilate them.

"Order the archers who are lying in ambush in the forest in front to prepare, and the cavalry mount!" Ao Bai decided.

Before the Qing archers in ambush attacked, He Renlong and Shen Tieshan muttered a few words on the mountain road, and suddenly ordered their cavalry to turn around and run towards them, and Ao Bai shouted when he saw this, "It's not good!" We were discovered, and if the Ming army wants to run, we will chase after me, and we can't let this Ming army run away. As he spoke, he picked up his mace and rode out of the forest, and the three thousand cavalry behind him also followed this Aobai together, and the rest of the infantry and archers also rushed out of the forest in a chaotic manner and followed closely behind.

He Renlong listened to the voice of the Qing soldiers chasing behind him, and sneered: "This time, I will definitely tell you all to enter the Hades Palace!" All the soldiers listened to the order, turned around, and prepared to meet the enemy! The four thousand Ming cavalry grabbed the reins and turned around to face the pursuing Qing army.

Ao Bai looked at it and said confusedly, "What's going on, why did the Ming army turn around again?" But that's fine, the provincial Lao Tzu is chasing after the ass. He shouted, "Rush me!" ”

He Renlong also waved his iron sword and shouted, "Soldiers, kill the Tartars!" Tima rushed towards the cavalry of Aobai, and Shen Tieshan and other 4,000 cavalry behind him shouted in unison, "Kill the Tartars!" They rushed forward.

As soon as the cavalry of the two armies fought, a ruthless battle suddenly began, Ao Bai kept waving his mace, and the Ming cavalry that fell beside him was either seriously injured or killed. He Renlong was furious when he saw it, and he rushed towards Ao Bai with a blood-stained sword, and when Ao Bai saw it, he knew that He Renlong was the general of this cavalry, and shouted in his mouth, "It's just right!" He rushed forward with a mace.

As soon as He Renlong and Ao Bai collided, both of them were taken aback, both of them were first-class fierce generals, and they knew that each other's strength was equal as soon as they fought. Ao Bai was not in a hurry, as long as his infantry and archers caught up, these Ming troops would be annihilated.

He Renlong was a little anxious in his heart, his cavalry was not like the Guanning Iron Cavalry, everyone had a three-eyed firearm, most of his cavalry were still cold weapons, and there was a certain gap between the cavalry of the Qing army, if he was caught up by the infantry of the Qing army, his cavalry would suffer a big loss. Seeing that his cavalry continued to fall off his horse, he shouted loudly, "Soldiers, hold on!" ”

Ao Bai, who was fighting against him, cast a shadow on his heart, how could this Ming cavalry take the initiative to meet the enemy with him knowing that it was not his opponent? At this time, a hurried sound of horses' hooves came, "Not good, there are reinforcements behind!" Ao Bai shouted in his heart that he was greedy for merit for a while and fell for the Ming army's strategy.

It was the 5,000 cavalry led by Zhou Renyuan who came behind, and the 5,000 cavalry rushed into the Qing army camp like a tiger, and what made Ao Bai even more angry was that there was a group of cavalry that rushed over wandering outside the camp, constantly hitting his own cavalry with crossbow arrows and firebolts, this cavalry was the Hengzhou cavalry, using his advantage in long-range shooting to continuously consume Ao Bai's cavalry.

Ao Bai saw that behind the Ming army who came to help, a Ming army general wearing gold armor was constantly commanding this cavalry armed with crossbow arrows and fire guns, and there were hundreds of masked soldiers on the side to protect the gold armor general, knowing that this was the commander of the Ming army, King Yongming, so he gave up He Renlong and hurriedly shouted, "Guards, follow me to capture the commander of the Ming army." ”

Where was He Renlong willing to let Ao Bai leave to attack Zhou Renyuan, and entangled Ao Bai, at this time, several of Aobai's guards hurriedly came over to entangle He Renlong, and Ao Bai immediately rushed to Zhou Renyuan when he saw this.

Mo Zhu on Zhou Renyuan's side hurriedly took out a fire gun and aimed it at Aobai, Zhou Renyuan stopped Mo Zhu and said, "Don't shoot, let me meet this Tartar general." As he spoke, he picked up the big knife and rushed to Aobai, and Aobai saw him and shouted, "I am the Qing Dynasty Meile Zhangjing Aobai, but I am the king of Yongming of the Ming Kingdom." Zhou Renyuan also shouted, "It's this king, Aobai, I heard that you are the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, let's see the main chapter under our hands, let you see whether you are powerful or I am powerful!" ”

When Ao Bai heard this, he was angry, and rushed to the front of Zhou Renyuan with a mace, and Zhou Renyuan shouted, "It's good!" Raising the Qinglong Yanyue knife and slashing towards Aobai, Aobai raised his mace to block Zhou Renyuan's big knife, Zhou Renyuan's eyes lit up, and he burst into a shout, "Break!" The big knife slashed three times in a row towards Aobai's mace, splashing golden light, Aobai felt that Zhou Renyuan's three knives were heavier than a knife, the war horse under the crotch screamed sadly, kneeling on all fours, to the third knife, only to hear the "click" sound, the mace in his hand was broken into two sections, Zhou Renyuan's big knife slashed at Aobai's head along the knife, Aobai hurriedly shook his head, only felt that his right shoulder was torn like pain, and screamed "Hurt me!" It turned out that his right shoulder was cut off by Zhou Renyuan.

Aobai's guards shouted, "Meler Zhangjing! Zhou Renyuan's guards took out their guns and fired at the guards who came to worship. Zhou Renyuan lifted the reins and slashed his horse, a stream of blood erupted from Aobai's neck, Aobai's head fell to the ground with a grunt, Zhou Renyuan picked up Aobai's head with the handle of the knife and shouted, "Aobai is dead!" ”

The Qing army was at a loss in panic when they saw that their commander, the first warrior of the Qing Dynasty, had not made three moves under the commander of the Ming army. Some clever Qing soldiers dropped their weapons and fled to the woods, this escape spread like a plague, the Qing soldiers fled one after another, and the Ming cavalry took advantage of the situation to kill and kill, killing the mountain road into a river of blood and a mountain of corpses.

After a stick of incense, Zhou Renyuan ordered someone to count the number of his cavalry, and there were less than 8,000 cavalry left, so he left fifty cavalry to protect the wounded soldiers who needed treatment, and ordered them to be handed over to Hong Chengchou's army behind, and he led the army straight to Rufeng Mountain.

The battle situation on Rufeng Mountain here has reached a tragic situation, Haoge and Nikan learned that the reinforcements of the Ming army were coming, and they didn't know how long the ambush soldiers of Aobai could stop the Ming army, and they kept urging the Qing soldiers to attack. Kong Youde's artillery battalion kept moving closer to Rufeng Mountain, but five or six were destroyed by the Ming artillery on the mountain, Kong Youde shouted, "Lord Wang, Baylor, the artillery really can't get any closer, if it gets closer, our artillery will all be buried here." ”

Haoge and Nikan also knew that Huang Taiji cherished the artillery of the Han Eight Banners, so they had to agree, ordered Kong Youde to support behind him, and then used the crowd tactics to rush to Rufeng Mountain again.

The second line of defense of Hu Dawei in Rufeng Mountain is also in danger, the Tartar desperately rushes the defense line, and his own fire gunners and archers have lost more than half, he remembered the secret weapon he took from Hong Chengchou, this Divine Fire Crow is a very sharp rocket of the Ming army, but if it is used on this mountain, it is easy to ignite the trees and cause a fire, and then whether it is the Qing army or himself, he may be buried in the fire, and Hu Dawei still does not dare to use it easily.

Just when Hu Dawei was distressed, he saw billowing dust behind the Qing army under the mountain, and a pair of golden armor was particularly conspicuous. Hu Dawei shouted happily, "Soldiers, King Yongming has personally brought troops to support us!" ”

Hauge and Nikan at the foot of the mountain are like ashes, could it be that the army of Aobai has been destroyed? Seeing that there was a head hanging on the banner of the commander of the Ming army, Haoge took a closer look and shouted, "That's the head of Aobai Mel Zhangjing!" The Qing soldiers at the foot of the mountain trembled with fear in their hearts, and the first warrior of the Qing Dynasty was cut off by the Ming army! The battle in his heart was suddenly lost, and he was panicked.

Nikan hurriedly shouted, "Withdraw!" Remove! The Qing soldiers retreated one after another, Kong Youde hurriedly arranged for his soldiers to carry the artillery, but it took time to disassemble the artillery, and the retreating Qing soldiers hurriedly took care of the importance of the artillery, and kept squeezing towards the artillery battalion, Kong Youde's gunners were squeezed and could not disassemble the artillery at all, Kong Youde shouted anxiously, "Dodge, dodge!" ”

As he spoke, he was also squeezed backwards, and several pro-soldiers hurriedly grabbed Kong Youde and said, "Lord Wang, please get on the horse, otherwise I will be buried here!" Kong Youde reluctantly shed a few tears, stomped his feet ruthlessly, got on his horse and ran backwards.

Zhou Renyuan led a large group of cavalry to see the Qing soldiers retreating, and immediately led the army to rush over, and there was another sound of slaughter. Hauge and Nikan retreated all the way to twenty miles, and Huang Taiji, who learned the news later, hurriedly led his army to support and stabilized his position.

Huang Taiji learned that it was Zhou Renyuan who annihilated Aobai's ambush soldiers, defeated the armies of Haoge and Nikan, and learned that his most cherished artillery had lost twenty pieces, and his heart was like a knife. He said hatefully: "What a Ming Kingdom Yongming King!" You wait, I call you majestic now, and in a few days, I will tell you to be buried on the side of this pine mountain, in order to pay tribute to the first warrior of the Qing Dynasty who sacrificed me! ”
