The night before, the men and horses of Hauge, Abatay, and Dordo had joined forces with Dorgon's army under the city of Great Deer. It has to be said that the effect of the division of troops is still obvious, and the Ming army can no longer figure out what the specific goals of the Qing army are, so they can no longer carry out attack and harassment tactics. The four armies attacked separately and looted a lot of grain and grass, which can be regarded as a temporary shortage of food.

After a day's rest, Dolgon urged the Han army banner and the plundered people to add and subtract to build siege equipment such as ladders. Julu is a small city, as long as the north and south camps are taken, with the short city wall of Julu, it can't withstand a fierce attack by the white-armored elite soldiers of the Qing army.

But since last night, Dolgon has strangely found that the lights of the camp in the south of the city have not been lit all night, and he vaguely deliberately saw the busy figure in the camp, although he could not determine what the Ming army was doing, but roughly deliberately guessed that it was preparing fortifications and equipment for defense.

From the banners of the defenders in the south of the city, the components of the men and horses can be identified, which are the Ming Dynasty, the Shaanxi Army, the Tiger Dawei Division, and the garrison of Fengyang, the central capital. Hu Dawei has fought against the Liukou and the Qing army for many years, and has fought with Duoduo and Dolgon before, although the battle is brave, but the equipment and combat ability of the soldiers under his command are not excellent. On the contrary, it was the centaur from Fengyang, the central capital, that Dolgon had never even heard of.

"Fengyang Left Behind Division Commander Zhu? Which of the generals of the Akito is this? ”

Although Zhu Ping'an made many meritorious deeds after arriving at the battlefield in Hebei, he did not show it in front of people, because the Qing army did not know him well and did not know him.

Qi Chongge hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Back to the prince, the general of this capital is named Zhu Ping'an, I heard that he is not very old, he should be the queen of the southerners, otherwise he would not be in this high position at a young age." It's just that the slave can't figure it out, how could such a person be sent to Hebei to die? After speaking, Qi Chongge smiled gloatingly, obviously not taking Zhu Ping'an to heart.

"Zhu Ping'an!" Ning Wan on the side, but I exclaimed.

"What, Mr. Ning recognizes this person?" Dorgon asked, looking back.

Ning Wan's face suddenly became hideous, "Lord Wang, the city has been broken, please be sure to hand over this person to the minion blade!" ”

"Why?" Dorgon was curious.

"Lord Bing, this person is the student of Lu Zhenfei, the governor of Fengyang, and Ning Tong, the nephew of the slave, unfortunately lost his trace in Fengyang when he was on an errand. Although there has been no news so far, it is obvious that Lu Zhenfei's master and apprentice have killed him! The slave asked the prince to fulfill it, and allowed the slave to kill the thief with his own hands to avenge his nephew! Ning Wan slammed my head on the ground and said through gritted teeth.

Dolgon didn't care, and nodded nonchalantly, "That's natural, after the city is broken, this Zhu Ping'an will be handed over to you Mr. Ning to deal with." Duoduo, order the soldiers and horses below, remember that this person is going to be captured alive, and Mr. Ning must get what he wants! ”

Duoduo casually agreed, and Ning finished me with a grateful look on his face.

After killing 1,000 wounded soldiers in the Han Army Banner, the Han Army Banner was afraid of Dolgon, and there was an extra layer of estrangement in plainness, which Dolgon did not want to see, but he was helpless. Now that he has this opportunity, he and the representative of the Han officials would rather finish repairing the rift, why wouldn't Dolgon do it.

……

Li Rujing was busy all night with the blind man and the others and the brothers in the auxiliary battalion last night, and it was only in the early hours of the morning that he could stop and quickly rest for a while, but knowing that the Tartars were about to attack, everyone's hearts were full of excitement and a little fear intertwined with complicated feelings, so that they couldn't sleep.

After a hasty breakfast, everyone put on their armor and came to their respective camps early in the morning. The painstakingly arranged arrangement in the open space of the camp last night also looked strange during the day.

More than 20 iron barrels with a diameter of one and a half feet are buried in the ground, the base is fixed and filled with jujube wood common in Hebei, and the barrel mouth is inclined upwards to point to the blue sky.

He Changshui, the director of the ordnance workshop, wore a leather jacket and shuttled between the iron buckets, inspected them carefully, and even measured the angle of the tilt of the iron buckets with his own hands. When he turned his head and saw the auxiliaries crowded not far away, he suddenly became angry. "Didn't you, you farmer, sue you? Be sure to stay away from here, stay in the operation and hurt you, don't say that the official didn't remind you! ”

The blind man suddenly pouted, "Damn, a craftsman dares to call himself an adult, and he really doesn't know what his background is!" ”

The auxiliary soldiers on the side took over the conversation, "Blind, don't look down on He Changshui, now he is a popular man in front of our Lord Zhu, not to mention that you and the scholar have killed more than ten Tartars, and it can be regarded as some military exploits, but now even Hong Yingguan, Yue Qianhu, and Qiu Qianhu may not dare to play prestige in front of him!" ”

A group of people looked at each other, but they didn't know why Zhu Ping'an valued He Changshui so much, a guy from a craftsman family, but they didn't know that they themselves were also military households, and they might not be able to go higher than He Changshui.

Behind the iron bucket array, behind a row of wooden fences, there is a small camp, the tents have all been dismantled at this moment, Zhu Ping'an's personal soldiers Wang Jinfa and Zhang Ergou are not beside the main general, but they appear here at this moment.

More than one hundred and fifty brightly armored guards surrounded the camp, and some kind of equipment seemed to be stored in the middle of the wooden fence, but all of them were covered with curtains. There was no shortage of curious soldiers in the army, even if they didn't dare to approach, they stood on tiptoe in the distance and kept looking, but they were reprimanded by the guards. Everyone in the army knew that Zhu Ping'an's personal guards were all elites selected from the army, and any one of them was at least the qualification of the general flag, so no one dared to refute it, and immediately retreated.

The long horn sounded on the opposite side, and the sergeants and soldiers were all agitated, and then they immediately pulled their legs and returned to their own positions. Zhu Ping'an's officers in the army were under management at one level, and peace was soon restored. Hu Dawei's army is a lot of noise, when it is winter, most of the Shaanxi soldiers are still dressed in single clothes, although Zhu Ping'an has the heart to help, but the materials in his hands are not rich, so he has to hand over the cotton cloth and other things brought with the army to the Shaanxi army, and make a simple cotton robe to cover the outside of the cloth armor, and finally have an extra layer of cold things.

The Tartars are finally coming out.

Hu Dawei and Zhu Ping'an immediately walked out of the big tent, stood on the commanding heights of the entire camp, and handed over the clairvoyant mirror to the soldiers. This thing is a rarity in the army, because it is expensive, so only high-ranking generals in the army can have it. López's Franco-machine merchant group did not lack such items, and brought a few to Zhu Ping'an, and Hu Dawei was also stained with Zhu Ping'an's light.

"The white flag, the white flag, the blue flag, the yellow flag, damn, the Tartars have made a lot of money this time, the elite soldiers of the four flags, plus those two Tartar Han army flags, don't you want to conquer the giant deer in one fell swoop?"

The formation of the Qing army was dense and tight, the flag covered the sky and the sun, and the sun shone down, reflecting a large area of snow and bright reflection. There are a lot of people, but they are not messy.

In a moment, as soon as the Qing army's formation opened, a large group of dense crowds pressed up from the rear army, and there was suddenly a burst of screaming and crying out of thin air.

"Tartar, it's this kind of trick again!" Hu Dawei waved his hand hatefully.

Zhu Ping'an was not surprised at all. The Qing army attacked the city like this, first with the piled up of the people as the front, the Han army flag behind, taking advantage of the Ming officers and soldiers to launch an attack in one fell swoop.

Hu Dawei scolded a few words, but he was at a loss, and when he stomped his feet, he wanted to order the front line to be wiped out regardless of the people and the Qing army.

Zhu Ping'an waved his hand calmly, "Tiger Commander, don't be impetuous, now is just the beginning, this battle has time to fight, don't mess up!" ”

Seeing that the front of the Tartars had slowly approached the periphery of the camp in the south of the city, the tiger scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry. Zhu Ping'an smiled, but nodded slightly at a guard behind him, and the guard immediately ran up to the high place as soon as he bowed, and the red flag in his hands danced to hunt.

Dolgon was also immediately at the height of the camp, surrounded by generals such as Duoduo, Abatai, Tan Tai, Qi Chongge, Mandahai, and Hauge. I couldn't help but be a little surprised to see the Han army banner escorting the captured people gradually approaching the main formation of the camp in the south of the city.

In the north camp of the city, the men and horses of the commander of the Yellow Flag sat in the formation, and the same Han army flag played the vanguard, and now it is already a raging war, the firearms of the Ming army Ping Pong are ringing non-stop, and the foot soldiers of the Han army flag are advancing regardless of the dead and wounded, which is a difficult stage to solve.

But this camp in the south of the city is too weird, the horse rejection trench is close in front of you, but the Ming army has done nothing, just wait for the people and the Han army flag to approach, you can immediately push away the horse rejection, fill in the trench, even if the Ming army attacked, repelled the Han army flag, but the eight banners and the Mongolian Qing soldiers can immediately charge, after which there is no suspense.

Is the Ming army going to surrender without a fight?

Just when Dolgon and other Qing generals were confused, there was a sudden commotion at the forefront of the team. When the people running ran to the edge of the Ming army camp, that is, the place where the horses were lined up, a large area suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and then, more people disappeared in that area, and the people who were piled up and plundered were no more than 5,000 people, and in the blink of an eye, nearly half of the people disappeared in an instant.

Duoduo rubbed his eyes, as if he didn't believe his eyes, but when he looked ahead and around, he found that all the generals had stunned expressions, and it was obvious that they had all seen the strange scene just now.

"Brother, something is wrong! How can this man say that he is gone? ”

At this time, the Han army flag followed behind the people's ranks, and it was also close to the edge of the Ming army's camp, for their own safety, they also used some soldiers to simply mix into the people's ranks in civilian clothes, except for the blades in their hands, which were swarthy money rattail pigtails wrapped in hats.

When they came closer, the soldiers of the Han Army Banner couldn't help but be shocked, and then they understood the reason why the people had just disappeared for no reason. It turned out that in this large area, there were not only things such as forests and horses on the ground, but also a system of trenches that could not be seen from a distance.

Dense and layered, like a labyrinth, the people came near, and had no way but to jump down the trench. Of course, more people were too late to retract and were simply squeezed down by those behind them. R1152
