Chapter 31: Defeat of He Luohui

When the news came, He Luohui led a cavalry to come here quickly, and Zhang Biwu knew that he would thwart the enemy army first. Jingjing Pass was also occupied by the Qing army, Jingcheng Mountain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, Zhang Biwu had repeatedly attacked, but could not succeed.

Jingcheng Pass and Niangzi Pass are each other's horns, which will make Zhang Biwu stumble here, compared to Li Dingguo's brilliant victory, Zhang Biwu is far behind!

Zhang Biwu was very leisurely, he knew that it was not difficult to break through Jingcheng Pass, and Lu County must have been captured. Zhang Biwu had to lead an army to set off, and he wanted to send a generous gift to He Luohui, so that Dolgon would know that he was powerful, and it would naturally be a good thing to be able to cut off He Luohui's head.

Even if He Luohui is gone, for the defeat of Shuosai and He Luohui, Zhang Biwu has a clever plan to break the Niangzi Pass. Zhang Biwu wanted to join up with another army.

Zhang Biwu sent another army from Wutai, this army was led by Lu Xiangsheng and Yao Dongzhao, although Yao Dongzhao was nearly seventy years old, but he had to bother him. In the land of Zhili, Yao Dongzhao has a great reputation and is very familiar with the terrain, so it seems that he can win more steadily.

Lu Xiangsheng and Yao Dongzhao will not disappoint Zhang Biwu, and they successfully captured Houlu County, and then they also pointed directly at Jingcheng County. The Qing soldiers in Jingcheng County couldn't help but panic, so they could only tighten up the defense of the city, and at the same time send people to Jingcheng Pass and Niangzi Pass to report. Both of these places are self-sufficient, so how can there be people to send them to help?

Of course, these people who were sent to contact were immediately captured, and then immediately sent people to pretend to be these people from the well, and let them go to the well, as long as they entered and closed the door. You can earn it. The army then covered up.

The terrain here has long been led by local woodcutters. He was very familiar, so he took advantage of the night, and with the help of artemisia grass, he was already ambushed around the well pass, waiting for the door to be opened. The men and horses roared in, and there were not many defenders in Jingcheng Pass, which was not as good as Niangzi Pass, so it was easy to control Jingcheng Pass.

Jingcheng Pass is lost, and Jingcheng County can see it. The Manchurian officials had already abandoned the city and fled, and the other people who stayed behind certainly wouldn't let themselves be substitutes for the dead and surrender to the county.

Lu Xiangsheng did not directly enter Jingcheng County, but immediately moved to the other direction, what is going on? Because I heard that the fifth son of Huang Taiji who was stationed in Ulzhou Wei loved Xin Jueluo. Shuo Sai had already moved his troops south from the Ulzhou Guard, and because of the proximity of the distance, he was able to reach it first.

Dolgon had requisitioned several Qing troops to fight Zhang Biwu with him, in order to protect the Niangzi Pass and the Jingcheng Pass, and to ensure that the passage between Shanxi and Yandi could be in the hands of the Manchus.

Therefore, Shuosai is a fast marcher, and Shuosai's mother is Yehenara clan. The Yeh Nara clan is the royal family of Yehe, and the strongest opponent Nurhachi encountered when he unified the Jurchens was Yehe.

Yehe's chieftain, Kim Tae-gil, on his deathbed. He once said a very famous prophecy - "Even if there is only one woman left in my clan, I will be avenged by Yehe!" Let Manchuria perish! ”

The two tribes of Yehe and Aixin Jueluo had already begun to fight at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, either reconciled, married, or fought a few battles.

There is a story that the leader of the Sinjue Luo tribe pointed to the great in order to make Yehnara submit, and said, "We are the most noble gold on the earth." When the leader of the Yehe tribe heard this, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and pointed to the sun in the sky, "What is gold, our surname is it!" "In Manchu, Aisin Jueluo means gold, and Nala means sun.

What Yeh means is that your gold can only shine in our sun, and without the sun, gold will not shine. It means that you love Xinjue Luo Shixing because of my Yehenara, and your defeat is also because of my Yehenara.

Maybe it's because of Jin Taiji's prophecy before his death - "Even if there is only one woman left in my clan, I will take revenge on Yehe!" Let Manchuria perish! "Huang Taiji saw that the Yehenara clan gave birth to Shuosai, but he rewarded the Yehenara clan to the minister as his wife, and left Shuosai to raise.

In Chinese history, Huang Taiji was the only emperor who rewarded his wife to his ministers.

Shuo Sai has lived in the ridicule of others since he was a child, and he is also angry, he is an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and he can be civil and martial!

Zhang Youzeng and Liu Fangliang, who had defeated the Dashun Army, including Li Zicheng who came to fight in person, also ended up in a big defeat.

And beheaded Ma Shiyao, broke the Hongguang regime, and later Jiang Jiu's rebellion, he was the first to move to Daizhou, so that Jiang Jiu's rebellion could not move eastward, so he was promoted from the king of the county to the prince.

Therefore, Dolgon entrusted him with the important task of defending Zhang Biwu, and he was stationed in Ulzhou.

He expected Zhang Biwu to send troops, even if he wanted to send troops to rescue Jing Cheng and others, he had to wait for the order of his father, the regent. If he sends troops without authorization, he will be severely punished, and now he has put his men and horses in order.

When Shuo Sai led the men and horses forward, he did not forget to listen to the news ahead, and whenever there was a disturbance, he had to report to him first.

When Lu Xiangsheng's army crossed through from Wutai, he knew that the road was dangerous! So he hurried to come with his army.

It happened that the fugitive officer of Jingcheng County met with the scout of Shuosai, and was brought by the scout to Shuosai, and when Shuosai heard it, he knew that Zhang Biwu's army did not enter, but instead wanted to attack from the back, in order to break the Niangzi Pass.

If they suddenly launched an attack on the back of Zhang Biwu's army now, they would have been able to achieve victory without being on guard.

Shuo Sai stepped up to send his troops forward, and suddenly, in the midst of the march, he was suddenly frightened, and felt frightened, if this was a plan, what should he do? And the perfect strategy is to meet with the army of He Luohui, who has advanced to Niangzi Pass, and respond to each other, if he enters the army alone, he loses the battle, loses the army, and hurts his momentum, and the defense of Niangzi Pass is more difficult.

When Shuo Sai thought of this, he didn't dare to mess around, he decided to win steadily, he sent another army to go, if nothing happened, his army would come later, if something happened, he would immediately retreat, in order to keep his strength, and wait for the arrival of He Luohui.

Shuo Sai even wanted to send someone to contact He Luohui, in order to advance and retreat together, but fortunately, his people were one step late, if it was earlier, Zhang Biwu's strategy would not have succeeded.

It was Shuosai's performance that allowed him to escape. Because Zhang Biwu had already arrived secretly with an army, he was going to ambush He Luohui.

When He Luohui came with his army, someone who had escaped from Jingcheng and Luquan came to meet him and reported to him the news of the loss of these two places. Niangzi Pass is in danger, Jing Cheng Pass is also in danger, Shuosai's men and horses have quickly attacked Jing Cheng, if they can rush to attack with Shuo Sai, they can turn the tide of the battle.

He Luohui thought that this opinion was correct, and he directly drove his horse to Jingcheng County urgently, but he didn't know that the army of Lu Dao was already ambushed here, waiting for him!

"Kill!" Ambushes arose, and they all killed He Luohui. He Luo would be stupid, he shouted: "Retreat!" The whole army retreats! ”

But when he saw his cavalry retreating, they fell into the pit of the horses one after another, and died one after another.

Zhang Biwu's banner is already waving in the wind, which is telling He Luohui - he Zhang Biwu is here!

He Luohui understood that Zhongfu could only escape with his life first and then make plans, he didn't dare to engage Zhang Biwu, and Lu Xiangsheng killed from the other side, Lu Xiangsheng did not enter Jingcheng County in order to join forces with Zhang Biwu to defeat He Luohui.

Li Guohan, a fierce general called "Morgen", who used to be the emperor's Taiji guard, was trapped under the wall, and the bird gunner kept shooting at him, Li Guohan was shot several times, he fell to the ground, and then a group of people rushed up and immediately captured Li Guohan alive.

Li Guohan's two sons, Haiertu and Sang, took the Hu name and did not use their Li surname and Han name. When these two rabbit cubs saw that their father was in trouble, they didn't save them, but took care of themselves first! What a traitor!

He Luohui saw that there was no way out, he could only be killed, there was an army from the thorn to kill, this army was Shuosai's, Shuosai only sent a partial division to save Jingcheng County, he escaped the doom of the destruction of the whole army, at this time it happened to help He Luohui!

"Kill! Ho, I'm here! Shuosai's banner was waving in the wind, and when He Luo saw it, he was overjoyed, and immediately asked the people of the headquarters to move closer to Shuosai.

Zhang Biwu couldn't help but be surprised, he actually killed such a new army, if it weren't for such an eventful army, He Luohui's head would have been taken down a long time ago! Where did this army come from? Why didn't it be detected?

But in the current situation, it is difficult for Zhang Biwu to eliminate He Luohui, and it is difficult to stop He Luohui and Shuosai's people.

Zhang Biwu decided to let them go, now that he can defeat He Luohui, it can be regarded as frustrating the spirit of the Qing army, and if he has achieved the results of the battle, he will be able to meet with Li Dingguo in the south, so as to prompt Li Dingguo to continue to expand the results of the war, which is a very good thing. It's a pity that Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan were hit hard because they were hit hard some time ago, so they can't respond anymore for the time being.

He Luohui and Shuo Sai were together, and the two of them didn't pay attention to Li Guohan, the two only cared about themselves, first escaped from Lu to meet Dolgon, and then looked for him to kill Zhang Biwu.

Zhang Biwu ignored them, now what he wanted was to hurry back to Shiniangzi Pass, presumably Niangzi Pass had already achieved a great victory, if it succeeded, he would be able to capture Niangzi Pass.

Li Guohan and Zu Zerun were escorted to Zhang Biwu, Zu Zerun is Zu Dashou's eldest son and Wu Sangui is a cousin. Now that he is willing to surrender, as the son of Zu Dashou, it is a good thing to be able to surrender!

And Zhang Biwu still thinks that Wu Sangui will not move, or that he will have to use Zu Zerun to win over Wu Sangui in the future! (To be continued......)
