Volume 1 Chapter 48: A Stone (5)

Ling Jingyang and the others continued to move forward, running forward for another five kilometers, when the sun rose, the sun shone on the earth, and everything appeared in front of them.

Ling Jingyang was still crawling in the wilderness, Dolgon and a group of Manchu military generals were sitting in the military camp, a group of people were making the final decision, many of them still did not believe that Wu Sangui would completely surrender, after all, after fighting Wu Sangui for so many years, it was hard to believe that Wu Sangui suddenly surrendered himself.

Dolgon did not believe it, Azig did not believe it, Ao Bai did not believe it, and Hong Chengchou and other Ming generals who surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not believe it.

Some generals proposed, no matter whether Wu Sangui really surrendered or surrendered, he must be wiped out in a piece of Shi Dashun army, occupying a major position in the battle of entering the pass, Wu Sangui and the Dashun army started a war, you can kill from here to enter the pass, give the Dashun army a fatal blow, Wu Sangui fake surrender, you can also block the attack of the Dashun army here, it is a zone that can be attacked and retreated.

This proposal was very good, and Dolgon and the other princes, Baylor, Dutong and other high-ranking generals thought it was true, and Dolgon ordered Azig to lead the left army, Bolo to lead the right army, and Ao Bai as the vanguard army, and to smash a stone tonight, defeating Tang Tong and Bai Guangen.

Dolgon attached great importance to the battle of Shanhaiguan in the battle of national fortune, but the latest information suddenly came from the scouts on the front line, and the Dashun army increased its troops to a piece of stone, of which the whole army was in a red flag, according to the previous intelligence, this army should be the right battalion of the Dashun army.

The Dashun army suddenly increased its troops, and Dolgon and a group of Manchu generals were in an uproar, and someone proposed to withdraw on the spot, on the grounds that Wu Sangui was likely to hook up with Li Zicheng to lure the main force of the Manchu Qing into the pass, and the two armies attacked and eliminated the main force of the Qing army once and for all.

This statement was supported by some Manchu generals, who gathered from outside the pass, and many troops did not carry heavy weapons such as Hongyi cannons, and without Hongyi cannons, how could they capture cities and conquer land, and how could they occupy an absolute advantage in field battles?

More than a dozen Manchu princes and ministers, the generals chattered and quarreled, most of the generals tended to withdraw their troops, Dolgon tried to dispel the public, and said to the ministers of civil and military affairs: "As the so-called wealth and danger are sought, our army is not far away, gathering soldiers and horses from the ice and snow, in order to enter the customs and seize the Central Plains on this day, if it is just because the Dashun army has increased its troops and is afraid that Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng will hook up together, they will threaten to withdraw the army, is it still worthy of the old Khan?" ”

The generals who said it have no place to be ashamed, and they form an army outside the gate, don't they covet the world of flowers inside the gate? Didn't they just want to get more land, grab more clothes to plow their fields and cultivate them, and countless gold, silver, and Ming women?

These are what they desire, Dolgon said proudly, as long as Li Zicheng is defeated at Shanhaiguan, the world is at his fingertips, land, silver, and clothing.

Dolgon asked everyone if they would like to continue to live in the ice and snow of the cold winter wax moon, struggling every winter, people freeze to death every year, if the harvest is not good next year, they will risk their lives to enter the customs and rob them, if it were not for the continuous blood transfusion of the group of mercenary Jin merchants in the Ming Dynasty, half of them would starve to death early in the morning.

All the generals were slandered by Dolgon and had no place to be ashamed, all said to enter the customs, Dolgon's words dispelled the fear of war among his subordinates, and successfully mobilized the enthusiasm of his subordinates, he ordered all departments to recuperate, have a full meal in the afternoon, and assault a piece of Shi Dashun army in the evening, and eliminate a piece of Shi Dashun army.

Whether it was Li Zicheng's Dashun army or Wu Sangui's Guanning army, he was confident that he would completely smash the stumbling blocks of the Qing Dynasty's entry into the customs with one enemy and two enemies.

The whole army of the Qing army remained silent, only the active figure of scouting back and forth in the jungle and the trail, at this time, Ling Jingyang and the three of them came to a mountain stream, which was a long distance away from a stone, and they could not go any further, otherwise they would not be able to rush back to the barracks in the morning.

The mountain stream is very quiet, only the sound of birds and insects calling, Ling Jingyang is drinking water, the war horse has been running for so long, and he is thirsty and shaking his legs, after the war horse drinks the water, Ling Jingyang still wants to turn over this mountain stream to see if there is a slave on the other side of the mountain stream?

Li Rufeng and Leng Rutie were comparing martial arts, both of them used to be the border army of the Ming Dynasty, and they performed very well in the dawn battle, which made the two have a feeling of sympathy for each other, Ling Jingyang walked alone to the other end of the mountain stream, the exit of the mountain stream was at the other end, he walked forward cautiously, and when he came to the exit, he found that under the mountain stream was a waterfall ten meters high, if he was not careful, he would fall down.

Ling Jingyang exhaled and almost fell, although he couldn't die, he could still smash people to the ground.

He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, the scenery in front of him almost made him take a breath, and the open space about a kilometer in front of the mountain stream was densely packed with tents of various colors, and the number of them made Ling Jingyang dazzled.

Li Rufeng and Leng Rutie saw Ling Jingyang stunned and did not move, thinking that Ling Jingyang had been attacked by a sneak attack, and hurriedly ran over, Li Rufeng called while running, Ling Jingyang turned around suddenly, and gestured with his index finger to make a gesture prohibiting occurrence, Li Rufeng quickly closed his mouth, and the two came to the exit of the mountain stream.

"Jiannu"

"Eight Flags"

The three of them hurriedly ran back, and they had to send the information back to the right camp as quickly as possible, listening to the figure of Jingyang and the three, they were discovered by an eight-banner infantry military academy under the mountain stream, and he took twenty people and rode a war horse to pursue.

Ling Jingyang has never been so fast in his life, he used his legs to clamp the horse's belly, and the war horse also felt the mood of the master on horseback, and spread his feet and galloped wildly.

The infantry military academy took his subordinates to listen to Jingyang, and the other Eight Banner generals hurriedly told their superiors the news of enemy activities nearby, and the leader did not dare to slack off, and reported the information to the top, and finally reported it to Dolgon's ears, after Dolgon heard it, he did not show panic, but said to the princes and ministers: "The battle of national fortune, even if the Dashun army knows that we have arrived at Shanhaiguan, it is too late to withdraw the troops, only by moving forward can there be a glimmer of life." ”

When the Manchu generals saw that he was natural, they all returned to the barracks and prepared to attack a Shidashun army tonight.

Ling Jingyang's war horse was fast, and the distance between him and the Qing army was far away, the Qing army did not catch up with Ling Jingyang, Ling Jingyang and the others galloped to the place where their subordinates responded, and saw ten cavalrymen sitting on the ground neatly, waiting for their return.

Li Rufeng just wanted to call his subordinates over, but Leng Rutie hurriedly stopped him and said, "There is fraud." ”

Ling Jingyang hurriedly pulled the horse rope, the war horse stopped running, and then he saw ten cavalrymen sitting side by side, each with their backs to them, very weird, and Li Rufeng also felt that it was not normal.

The three of them didn't dare to step forward, and drove the war horse to pass through the other side, and after passing, they saw that this was a soldier sitting in a row eating dry food, and no one went to the sentry, so frightened that Ling Jingyang thought that these ten people were assassinated by the enemy, and deliberately lined up the corpses to humiliate the opponent.

Li Rufeng rode over on a horse, so angry that he threw a whip over, and a long blood mark suddenly appeared on the face of a cavalryman who ate the most.
