Waiting for the rabbit is just a matter of luck. If there is a second time, it is already shit luck, but this trick of the Liaodong Army has been used again and again, and it has been tried and tested.

No, Huang Taiji led his tired army and once again walked into the encirclement.

It's not that Huang Taiji is stupid, but that he is already emaciated and unable to control the less than 50,000 frightened birds under his command.

The soldiers continued to build pontoon rafts, hoping to find some way to cross the river and return to Shenyang to escape the bitter sea of fear, while the generals gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army with solemn expressions.

At this time, everyone's hearts were a little bottom, there were Deng Haonan's ambushes on the two rivers in succession, and now there were 20,000 Guan Ning Tie cavalry biting them to the death, which was undoubtedly telling them, and the Qi River in front of them was also in danger.

"Your Majesty, after crossing the Qi River, we will be safe!"

There are always some generals who still hold on to a glimmer of hope, hoping to escape.

Huang Taiji sighed, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Do you think this Qihe is so good?" ”

Fan Wencheng was shocked, his brows tightened, and asked, "The emperor is worried about Qihe and Deng Haonan's ambush!" ”

Huang Taiji didn't gnaw, but from his expression, Fan Wencheng had already seen it.

Yes, even Fan Wencheng himself guessed that there would be Deng Haonan's ambush soldiers in Qihe, how could Huang Taiji not guess it. It's just that even if you understand it in your heart right now, you can't say it, because the army's heart is about to collapse, and if there will be Deng Haonan's ambush, it will definitely cause panic in the army.

"How's the pontoon?"

Huang Taiji said to him, Fan Wencheng looked at Abatai, who replied: "The Qi River is already very wide, the river channel has widened several times during the flood season, and the pontoon bridge is not easy to build, and the soldiers have changed to rafts to cross the river!" ”

Changed to a raft, delaying more time, Fan Wencheng watched Huang Taiji's face sink to the bottom.

There is a big river blocking the road in front, there are enemy troops following behind, and what is even more terrifying is that the enemy is in the dark.

"Report!"

With a long roar, the atmosphere in the big tent of the Chinese army suddenly became extremely tense.

The sentry ran in in a hurry, panting and said, "Your Majesty, a large number of enemy troops have been found thirty miles to the north!" ”

What the!

Huang Taiji was trembling when he landed, and he almost didn't sit down and slipped down.

"The enemy's flag, how is the strength of the troops?"

Fan Wencheng hurriedly asked, and the sentry said: "The banner is complicated, it is certain that the black armor elite cavalry is included, there are many enemy troops, and our sentries cannot get close, the preliminary estimate is no less than 100,000, all of them are cavalry!" ”

The soldiers suddenly gasped, afraid of something.

"What do you think?"

Everyone bowed their heads and sighed, but Amin still stood up and said, "I'm afraid he will do something!" 100,000 Ming troops want to eat, we still lack a good pair of teeth! ”

Huang Taiji smiled bitterly, this Amin is really not afraid of heaven and earth, he used to look very angry when he looked arrogant, but now it seems that at this time, Amin still gives him a boost.

A desperate battle is inevitable, Huang Taiji knows the situation in front of him, Deng Haonan laid a net of heaven and earth, ambush on all sides, this time it is real!

"Report!"

Less than half an hour after the signal corps in front had left, another signal corpsman had entered, and he was even more anxious than the man just now.

"Report to the emperor, the Ming army has begun to act, and it is divided into two ways to kill!"

The Liaodong army was divided into two routes, Wang Yuanlong and Hou Shilu took the lead, and more than 35,000 cavalry, together with a 10,000 lancers, came from the north. Man Gui led 20,000 Guanning iron cavalry, together with 20,000 lancers of the Liaodong Army, from the west.

"Where's the Black Armor Rider?"

Huang Taiji was the only one who did not hear the information of the Black Armor Spirit Cavalry.

"Failed to find out!" The signal soldier said: "The Ming army is exhausted, and if you want to form an encirclement, our sentries can only retreat, and they can no longer detect the enemy's movements!" ”

Huang Taiji stood up abruptly and paced back and forth.

Deng Haonan's black-armored elite cavalry was not detected, which was very dangerous, because the black-armored elite cavalry was Deng Haonan's killer weapon, and his position would directly determine Huang Taiji's entire combat deployment. Without knowing the location of the Black Armor Cavalry, it is impossible to determine the main direction of the enemy's attack.

Is it west or north?

"Probably south!"

Fan Wencheng said: "The enemy army should encircle us, but they only charge from the north and west, leaving the south alone, and the art of war is cloudy: the enemy wants us to retreat to the south, and then the main force of the black armor elite cavalry will definitely set up an ambush in the south and catch us off guard!" ”

Huang Taiji nodded and said: "At present, our army is unstable, if the enemy army fully surrounds us, then we have a chance to turn the tables, because our army will have the heart to die in a decisive battle." However, the enemy's opening of the southern side is to shake the hearts of our troops and make our troops have no determination to resist to the death. ”

It is likely that the Black Armor Spirit Rider is lying in ambush in the south and waiting for the rabbit, and the judgment of Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng represents everyone's thoughts.

Fan Wencheng analyzed: "The enemy army in the north is the one that defeated the Great Baylor, so its combat effectiveness is very strong. The main force of cavalry in the west is Mangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry, as well as 20,000 Liaodong Army lancers, the second most powerful in battle, and the south is likely to be ambushed there by the black armor elite cavalry, so our army should now attack the west with all its strength, first defeat Mangui, and then turn around and go north, so as to break through! ”

"How powerful are the Lancers?"

Huang Taiji suddenly asked, and Fan Wencheng said, "It's not clear yet." This unit was formed just half a year ago, and it is only known that they are mounted as cavalry and dismounted as musket infantry, but there is no artillery! ”

The Qing army has never been afraid of the infantry of the Ming army, which may be the root of the disease left over from the Nurhachi era! In short, even Huang Taiji did not attach much importance to the lancers of the Liaodong Army, and in his eyes, the infantry without artillery was not worth mentioning.

"In this case, it seems that it will be difficult to cross the river now, so we should meet the enemy with all our might, try to break out, and then return home by land!"

After crossing the Qi River, it was not far from the territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but it was precisely this river that blocked their retreat.

"I'll take the lead!"

Amin took the initiative to ask, Huang Taiji nodded, for now he can only let him be a pioneer, and no one else has that determination!

Fan Wencheng said: "If you want to break the siege, you can only use the strongest strength of our army to attack the weakest position of the enemy!" But in this way, our army must pass through the enemy's weakest line of defense in a short time, otherwise the enemy's strongest army will encircle our flank in a roundabout way, and it will be bad! ”

War is like this, you attack the enemy's weakest position, obviously exposing your weakest position to the enemy's strongest forces, if you can't grasp this time difference, then you will be defeated by the opponent.

Huang Taiji nodded and said to Amin: "It's okay, transfer the yellow flag to you, be sure to break away from the enemy army and cover the breakthrough of the Chinese army!" ”

"Don't worry!"

After Amin left these words, the people had already rushed out of the camp.

Time is pressing, the Liaodong Army is approaching, and the Qing army has no time to rest, and it must immediately break through with all its might.

After the battle order was issued, the Qing army suddenly exploded, and fear arose.

Looking at the huge low morale brought about by the transfer of soldiers and horses, Huang Taiji felt helpless for the first time in his heart.

Maybe this is destiny!

Huang Taiji looked up to the sky and sighed, by this time, as a military strategist, he had already sniffed out the danger of death.

The rain began to fall, and Huang Taiji hoped that the rain would be heavier, but it was not as he wished.

The drizzle is not at all like the rainstorm at the end of summer, but more like the smoke and rain in the Qingming season.

However, just when Huang Taiji was looking forward to the heavy rain, the drizzling rain also stopped, which was really annoying.

Providence so!

Huang Taiji was surprised, and Amin had already ordered 20,000 elites and rushed west.

Huang Taiji no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered: "The whole army will follow me to kill from the north!" ”

The rest of the generals were stunned, and they never expected that Huang Taiji would change his mind at this time.

Undoubtedly, Huang Taiji sent Amin to the death field, and without the Chinese army to meet Amin, Amin would definitely be surrounded and annihilated by the Ming army.

Fan Wencheng was a little emotional, but at the moment, Huang Taiji did this, which is undoubtedly the best way. There are yellow flags in the Amin army, and this time it was the main force of Huang Taiji who misled the Ming army to break through.

Attacking the north in the west, Huang Taiji chose to use 30,000 cavalry to rush to break through the front, and it may be possible to do the opposite.

To the east of Tangtu, a tall belvedere tower was built, and the three black-armored elite cavalry generals Zhan Zengyong, Shen Xiufang and Du Yongchen gathered there to observe the distant battlefield with a clairvoyant eye from a high place.

The situation of the Qing army was nowhere to hide in the prairie, and everything was in the hands of Zhan Zengyong and them.

"Where do you think Huang Taiji will be?"

Shen Xiufang put down her clairvoyant eyes and said, "I see that he is in the west, there is the weak point of our army, and the Guanning Iron Cavalry of Mangui will definitely not be taken seriously by Huang Taiji." Besides, his yellow flag is on the west side! ”

Du Yongchen said: "But there are 30,000 enemy troops in the north, and Huang Taiji's Zhenghuang flag is also in the north, and Huang Taiji may also choose to break through head-on!" ”

Several people looked around for Huang Taiji's Chinese army, and they could only roughly judge the location of Huang Taiji from the banner.

Zhan Zengyong said: "I have already informed Man Gui and Wang Yuanlong of them, whoever finds Huang Taiji will send us a signal!" This battle has come to this point, if you run away from Huang Taiji, it will be tasteless! ”

At this time, on the battlefield in the west, Mangui's 20,000 Guanning iron cavalry first clashed with Amin, and the cavalry of the two sides hedged against each other, like two colliding waves, and it was extremely fierce in an instant.

The Qing army was exhausted, and their hearts were like frightened birds, and they were terrified. This greatly reduced the combat strength of the Qing army, but the soldiers on Mangui's side knew that there were still 30,000 black-armored elite cavalry as their backing, so their morale soared, and they were no longer afraid of the Qing cavalry.

Under the advantages of the other, the balance of combat strength and morale of both sides fell in the direction of the Liaodong Army.

Most of Man Gui's subordinates are Mongolian mercenaries, and their combat strength is stronger than Zu Dashou's Guanning iron cavalry, and there are 20,000 lancers in the back to cover in formation, and Man Gui is not afraid of Amin at all.

After two rounds of fierce fighting between the cavalry of the two sides, there were casualties on each other, and at this time Man Gui's troops returned to their original positions.

The cavalry on both sides regrouped and prepared to charge again.

Man Gui was not in a hurry, he knew that Amin on the other side was more anxious than him.

Sure enough, Amin was in a hurry to open an opening to cover Huang Taiji to rush out, so he immediately charged after the whole team was completed.

At this time, Man Gui suddenly ordered Guan Ning's iron cavalry to retreat, and 20,000 lancers pushed forward.

"Array!"

At the sound of the order, 20,000 lancers quickly dismounted, replaced their sabers with muskets, and formed a large phalanx of infantry.

"Guns!"

"Ready!"

……

"Shoot!"

The enemy forces approached, and the Liaodong Army quickly opened fire.

Bang bang bang!

Dense gunfire rang out, white smoke shot out, and countless projectiles rained down on the Qing cavalry.

In an instant, I saw the fierce neighing of the enemy's war horse, the horse lost its front hooves and was loaded with a bang, and the Qing cavalry above suddenly fell off the horse, splashing countless muddy water.

Bang bang bang!

Rows of muskets fired one after another, and the dense rain of bullets suddenly established a death blockade within a hundred meters of the front, and countless enemy corpses were piled up in an instant.

In just a few minutes, Amin's cavalry suffered heavy casualties, and even he himself was scratched several times by the projectile. If it weren't for the special hemostatic function of the Qing army's cotton armor, perhaps he would have died because of the incessant bleeding.

Smoke rose and the musketeers opened fire violently, filling the vicinity with smoke. Amin originally wanted to rush in with the smoke of gunpowder blocking the line of sight, but in the end, because the casualties were too large and the Liaodong army could not be consumed, he ordered to retreat.

"Stop shooting!"

"Kill!"

As soon as the enemy turned around and retreated, Man Gui immediately ordered to stop shooting. The musket array dodged dozens of openings, and Guan Ning's iron cavalry rushed out from inside.

Unable to leave his back to the enemy, Amin had no choice but to turn around and face the battle.

The Qing army turned around, and the speed of the war horse could not get up for a while, but the Guanning iron cavalry of Man Gui accelerated to full speed and took the advantage.

In an instant, Guan Ning's iron cavalry slammed the embankment like a giant, quickly breaking down Amin's formation.

Amin's department was divided into dozens of sections by the other party, and the Qing army's morale was already low like a frightened bird, and at this time, it lost the command of Amin's central nervous system, and it was suddenly in chaos.

Man Gui led the Guanning Iron Cavalry to take the opportunity to cover and kill, rampage, rushing left and right, and annihilating a large number of enemy troops.

At this time, the 20,000 lancers of the Liaodong Army behind had already put away their muskets, replaced them with sabers, and then rushed to kill.

Amin was seriously wounded, surrounded by only a few hundred personal soldiers, and as far as the eye could see, there were enemies everywhere, shouting for killing.

Amin is crazy, it is desperate madness, and he is desperate to slash and kill the nearby Ming army.

Man Gui led the army to rush left and right, keeping an eye on Amin, the boss, and seeing that Amin had lost his judgment, he bent his bow and aimed at him.

There was a loud swish, and the sound of breaking the air hit, and Amin fell from his horse with an arrow. As soon as he struggled to stand up, he was forced to cut off his head with a knife from a Ming army ten-commander who was close by.

"Amin is dead, and those who descend will not die!"

Man Gui shouted, and the Qing army's heart suddenly became ashes. Man Gui did not expect the Qing army to surrender, this was just to shock the enemy's heart and break the enemy's will to resist.

Sure enough, not many Qing troops surrendered, but the Qing army was already in disarray, and countless people fled.

At the same time as Amin's defeat, Huang Taiji had already engaged the Ming army from the front, and he didn't know Amin's battle situation at all.

Wang Yuanlong's 20,000 quasi-black-armored elite cavalry was not bad, but Hou Shilu's 15,000 cavalry was too poor, so Wang Yuanlong had to use 10,000 lancers only as cavalry to deal with Hou Shilu and prevent it from being defeated.

Huang Taiji is staring at Hou Shilu, he knows that this Hou Shilu is the real weak point in this encirclement, so Huang Taiji personally commands the Zhenghuang Banner and picks Hou Shilu to kill.

The Liaodong Army all have standard military uniforms, but Hou Shilu still wears the old-fashioned clothes of the Ming Army, so it is very easy to recognize.

As soon as he saw him, Hou Shilu was killed by Huang Taiji's Zhenghuang Banner, but fortunately, 10,000 lancers could resist it, so he failed to let Huang Taiji break out.

Wang Yuanlong was shocked, if Huang Taiji ran away, it would be too big, so he hurriedly moved closer to Hou Shilu and surrounded Huang Taiji.

On the jumping platform, without waiting for Wang Yuanlong to release the signal flare, Zhan Zengyong and the others had already judged the position of Huang Taiji.

"It's time to get to work!"

Several people looked at each other and smiled, and they all went down to command their respective black-armored elite horses, ready to give Huang Taiji a fatal blow.

Woooooo

The sound of the horn was raised, this was the sound of the black armor spirit riding out, and it was even more naked to show off.

"Kill!"

Leopard Taowei and Ying Yangwei were the first to charge, like two huge crab pincers, rushing in from both wings of the Qing army.

The red tassel jumped, the war horse galloped wildly, and the powerful impact of the death of the one who stood in my way shook every Qing soldier.

The role of the heavy cavalry was to break the enemy's formation.

Obviously, at this time, the Qing army's formation could not stop the impact of the black armor elite cavalry at all.

Bao Taowei and Ying Yangwei rushed to kill in the Qing army's formation, as if they were in a no-man's land, and soon killed the rear army. After highlighting the rear army, the rear team of the black armor elite cavalry changed to the front team and rushed back again, so a few back and forth, the Qing army's formation has collapsed.

For the first time, Huang Taiji saw with his own eyes the powerful attack power of the black-armored elite cavalry, this kind of cavalry confrontation, heavy cavalry against light cavalry, it was simply a one-sided slaughter.

Huang Taiji's eyes were cracked sharply, and his eyes, ears and nose were bloodshot, like a fierce beast coming out of a pool of blood.

The sound of killing shook the sky and continued until the evening.

By the time the last rays of the sun fell on the banks of the Qi River, the war was nearing its end.

On the battlefield, corpses were strewn all over the field, rivers of blood flowed, and the stench was stinking.

The rain began to fall again, and the horse could not stop neighing beside its master, and although its owner had only a broken arm left, it still hoped that his master would be able to stand up.

Huang Taiji died, but no one knew who killed him, and in the chaos of the army, Huang Taiji died in battle, no different from a small soldier who died in battle. No one has the energy to find Huang Taiji in a life-and-death battle, so even if they cut Huang Taiji, they don't know.

After the war, when the Ming army cleaned up the battlefield, they dug him out of the pile of corpses that were piled up several meters high, although the limbs were incomplete, but the yellow robe was still easy to identify.

Zhan Zengyong cut off Huang Taiji's head and ordered someone to hurry up and go back to report the victory.

No one knows who beheaded Huang Taiji, so the credit for this official promotion to the three poles is unclaimed. In this way, Zhan Zengyong attributed the credit to the more than 7,000 Ming soldiers who died in battle, hoping to ask for more pensions for them and their families.

Nearly 50,000 Qing cavalry were all killed, and the farthest Qing cavalry ran for 20 miles, but was still chased to death by the Ming cavalry. Because Zhan Zengyong can't let go of one person, it is likely to be Huang Taiji. However, for this, the Liaodong Army paid the price of more than 7,000 sacrifices.

Huang Taiji, known as the Manchu generation of Tianjiao, finally died under Deng Haonan's ambush on all sides, and the north has been calm for a long time.

After the Liaodong Army left in triumph, there was an additional mound near Tangtu, on which more than 7,000 tombstones were erected, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, and they may think about what Deng Haonan said to them during the military parade.

"You are Lao Tzu's soldiers when you are alive, and you are Lao Tzu's dead ghost soldiers when you die! Regardless of the yang and the underworld, Lao Tzu will always take you to eat and drink spicy food! ”

The voice echoed for a long time......
