Du Du led an army of 80,000 to conquer, Dolgon was not idle, of course he would not attack Yanqing City, you must know that there are more than 100,000 Ming troops stationed in the city, and the forced siege of the city will definitely cause huge losses, and the gains outweigh the losses, and if you want to hit the Chongzhen Emperor and the court of the Ming Dynasty hard, you still have to use the way of besieging the city to send reinforcements to destroy the Ming army as much as possible, so Dolgon sent a large number of scouts to investigate the situation around the capital.

Dolgon believed that Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty would definitely not be at ease with Yanqing City, and would continue to send a large army to reinforcements, and there was such a habit in all parts of the Ming Dynasty, once the capital was in danger, the troops from all over the country would come to the capital to reinforce, and Dolgon had followed Huang Taiji to defeat the reinforced Ming army.

Dolgon's most desired goal, or the Ming Emperor Chongzhen in the forced helpless situation, in order to defend the capital, mobilize the garrison of Shanhaiguan to come to reinforcements, if there is such a situation, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Qing Dynasty, even if the army under the command of Dolgon suffered heavy losses, it is worth it, as long as the Ming army stationed in the Guanningjin defense line is mobilized on a large scale, Huang Taiji will definitely lead the army to attack the Ningjin defense line, once the Ming Guanningjin defense line is broken, it means that the Qing Dynasty has one foot into the Central Plains.

Inside, Dolgon still pays attention to Zheng Jiajun.

There has been such a major change in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, logically speaking, there is no reason why the Zheng family army should not come to Beizhili for reinforcements, but these days, the scouts sent by Dolgon have not detected the slightest news of the Zheng family army.

The movements of the Zheng Jiajun were not detected, but the movements of the white pole soldiers were detected.

Du Erluo still knows a little about the white pole soldiers, and the white pole soldiers also have a lot of fame in the Qing Dynasty.

In the battle of Shenyang during the Apocalypse, the white pole soldiers crossed the Hunhe River and fought with the Eight Banners Army, and the Eight Banners Army at that time was invincible after the Battle of Salhu, and the Ming army was not taken into account at all. The Eight Banners Army suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and although the Eight Banners Army finally defeated the White Pole Soldiers, they knew the prestige of the White Pole Soldiers.

At the beginning of the third year of Chongzhen's second brother, Huang Taiji personally led the Eight Banners Army into the customs and plundered. Directly threatened the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the white pole soldiers entered Beijing again to conquer, that time the white pole soldiers showed their might, actually defeated the Eight Banners Army, and assisted Sun Chengzong, who commanded the battle, to recover Luanzhou, Yongping, Qian'an and Zunhua four cities. Amin, one of the four major Baylors stationed in the four cities, was severely punished by Huang Taiji, and has been imprisoned so far, and that battle was also a battle in which the white pole soldiers were proud.

Of course, there was a premise for the white pole soldiers to win a big victory that time, that is, Huang Taiji had led the main force back to Shenyang, leaving part of the army to garrison the captured city, and the strength of the Eight Banners was relatively weak.

When the scouts detected that the White Pole Soldiers had entered Beijing for reinforcements and were marching in the direction of Changping Prefecture, Dolgon was extremely excited, if he could defeat or even destroy the White Pole Soldiers. It can be regarded as a huge victory, and defeating the white pole soldiers will definitely cause a huge panic to the Ming court.

Dolgon immediately ordered Shang Kexi to lead 30,000 Han troops to continue to besiege Yanqing City, and he led 40,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners Army to meet the white pole soldiers who came to reinforce them.

Dolgon's clear request was gratifying, and the Ming army in the city of Yanqing must not be allowed to discover the problem, and must adopt the tactics of confusion, so that the Ming army will not be at peace, thinking that the Eight Banners Army will launch a more fierce attack.

Dorgon did so. is full of self-confidence, after besieging Yanqing Prefecture for so long, the Ming army has not made the slightest move, and has not even sent a small force to test it. looks like he is stubbornly defending the state city, since this is the case, then the strategy and tactics of Dolgon's siege and reinforcements can be brought into full play.

Dolgon placed the decisive battle on a large flat place five miles away from the city of Changpingzhou.

After several battles with the white pole soldiers, Huang Taiji once ordered a special person to study the tactics of the white pole soldiers, and the experience summed up was very clear. The white pole soldiers are famous for holding spears made of white wood, which are different from ordinary weapons, equipped with iron hooks with blades on the top and iron rings on the tail, so that when fighting, the white pole spears can be attacked in front and back, so that the opponent can not be defended.

Huang Taiji even ordered a special person to make this kind of white-pole spear and brandished it with his own hands.

However, the white pole soldier also has its huge flaws, it can be seen from the white pole spear, the iron hook in front of the white pole spear, can fight when fighting, can also climb, the iron hook hooks the trees and rocks, the sergeant can use the strength of rock climbing, the iron ring at the tail can make multiple white pole spears end to end connected, specially used for rock climbing, no matter what kind of show-off cliffs, the white pole spear is able to climb, from this point proves that the white pole soldiers are suitable for fighting in the mountain environment.

Fighting on the plains, the white-pole spear does not have much advantage, its own weight is not large, compared to the real spear, much lighter, when the two armies fight, the force is strong, the strength is fundamental, especially the cavalry charge, the moment of collision, the force can have a decisive effect, the side with little strength, no matter what skills you have, when you hit hard, you may have flown into the air.

The spear in the hands of the Sergeant of the Eight Banners is generally powerful, and there is one of the most critical places, that is, the Sergeant of the Eight Banners is very good at archery, and he can fire bows and arrows on a galloping horse, and the accuracy is not ordinary.

Fighting on the plains, when the Eight Banners faced the white pole soldiers, they occupied a great advantage, to put it mildly, they occupied an absolute advantage, once they began to charge and fight on the plains, the Eight Banners soldiers used the speed of the impact and the bows and arrows fired, they were able to make the white pole soldiers at a loss and unable to resist.

Knowing that the other is invincible, Huang Taiji specialized in white-pole spears back then, not for fun.

The soldiers of the White Banner under the command of Dolgon, their combat effectiveness is one of the best in the Eight Banners Army, and it is on a par with the Blue Banner led by Hauge, so this time against the White Pole Soldiers, Dolgon has absolute confidence.

At that time, the white pole soldiers were able to win the battle, on the one hand, their sergeants were not afraid of death, and on the other hand, the Eight Banners Army was not particularly clear about the tactics of the white pole soldiers, but such a situation would not occur again.

Dolgon led the army from Yanqing City, and it took a lot of thought.

The army set off at night, and each departure was about 10,000 people, taking advantage of this opportunity, the Han army led by Shang Kexi dispersed to various barracks and tents, causing the illusion that there were sergeants in each barracks and tents, and the 10,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners led by Dolgon finally set off, before leaving, he specially told Shang Kexi, and never let the Ming army see the slightest flaw.

In fact, Dorgon's worries were superfluous, and the Ming army in the city would not fight at all.

After leaving Yanqing Prefecture, in order to prevent leakage of information, Dolgon made it clear to the scouts sent out that from Yanqing Prefecture City to Changping Prefecture City, no matter who was found, they would be killed, and the whereabouts of the army must be kept secret.

From the capital to the direction of Yanqing Prefecture, so that to Fangshan, Zhuozhou, Gu'an and Yongqing and other places, it can be said that there are thousands of miles of uninhabited, except for the army reinforced by the imperial court, no one else can be seen, and the people around them have either fled for their lives, or they have been killed or captured by the Houjin Tartars.

Therefore, the army of 40,000 led by Dorgon marched very smoothly without encountering any accidents or troubles.

The scouts also reported a steady stream of news, saying that the marching speed of the white pole soldiers was not particularly fast, the total number of white pole soldiers was more than 10,000, the cavalry was less than a quarter, and most of them were foot soldiers.

Of course, the scouts did not dare to observe closely, so as not to expose their whereabouts, to say that the scouts of the Eight Banners were too prominent, and they were found at a glance when they walked among the Han people, but fortunately, it was winter, and they could wear thick hats to cover their hair and face.

As Dolgon approached the city of Changpingzhou, a heavy snowfall came.

The advent of heavy snow, so that Dolgon is even more happy, the soldiers of the Eight Banners are not afraid of the cold climate, no matter how cold the climate, they can march and fight, the white pole soldiers are not necessarily, the heavy snow must cause them a certain amount of confusion, and the white pole soldiers are wearing red robes, this is the Ming army's robes, in front of the white snow, can not be hidden at all.

Dorgon felt that God was helping him.

The 80,000 army led by Du Du also continued to come with good news, quickly attacked the city, plundered a large amount of money, grain and grass, and also transported two batches of grain and grass to Yanqing City, Dolgon on Du Du divided the tactical arrangement of the battle is highly agreed, according to the combat strength of the Eight Banners Army and the Mongolian left and right battalions, there is no need to concentrate so many soldiers, it is completely possible to divide the troops, even if the Han soldiers are slightly weaker in combat effectiveness, they are completely able to defeat the Ming army.

Dolgon was even happier that Du Du carried out his request and let Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming lead the Han army to fight alone, under the current situation, there were still certain difficulties in the Manchurian Eight Banners, the Mongolian left and right battalions and the Han army fighting together, and it was the best way to let the Han army fight alone.

Since Du Du was asked to command 80,000 soldiers to fight, Dolgon would not intervene in the specific matters of how to fight, and let Du Du play to his heart's content, he also knew Du Du's inner thoughts, because of the influence of his father Chu Ying, Du Du has always been unwilling, and he hopes to make great contributions in the battle, so as to prove his ability, and also let Huang Taiji be able to look at it differently.

When the army approached the city of Changping Prefecture, Dolgon concentrated all his energy, it can be said that after he led the 150,000 army into the pass, he did not encounter too many fights and battles, this time the battle can be said to be crucial, to be able to defeat or even completely annihilate the white pole soldiers, there may be unexpected situations.

The battle can not tolerate the slightest negligence, even if it occupies all the advantages, it must be taken seriously, Huang Taiji has repeatedly asked the soldiers of the Eight Banners to have a lion to catch rabbits and use all their strength in every battle, so as to be able to win every victory.

Dolgon thought the same way. (To be continued.) )
