Chapter 419: Angry Hair Rushes to the Crown (9)

He angrily scolded the ministers for having no brains, and he and the Qing army envoys said that they could exchange Jierharang for Liu Zongmin and Tian Jianxiu, but they would send back the captured soldiers of the Dashun army.

The Qing envoy readily agreed to Li Zicheng's request, saying that Liu Zongmin and other hundreds of prisoners of the Dashun army were in Datong Mansion, and Liu Zongmin and other soldiers could be sent back in three days.

Li Zicheng made Liu Fangliang the commander-in-chief this time, and Liu Zongmin must be brought back, Liu Fangliang and Liu Zongmin are both generals of the five major battalions of the Dashun Army, and he is also one of the few generals who support the replacement of Liu Zongmin.

He and Li Zicheng said that they would complete the task, Li Zicheng told him to be more careful, not to be overshadowed by the Qing army, the Qing army envoy did not retire after conveying Dolgon's meaning to Li Zicheng, he came to Yan'an Mansion, and there was an important task.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to marry Dashun as a brotherly country, and I also ask Your Majesty to appreciate your face."

The words of the Qing army envoy made the Dashun army monarchs and ministers unable to react, Li Zicheng asked the Qing army envoy to go down, he wanted to discuss with the ministers why the Qing army suddenly wanted to negotiate peace, and also became a brotherly country.

Niu Jinxing thought that the Qing army was preparing for the assembly of an army, and others also thought that what Niu Jinxing said was reasonable, Li Zicheng did not speak, he couldn't figure out what Dolgon meant, and decided to change Liu Zongmin back first, and then negotiate peace with the Qing army.

At this time, Duoduo, Wu Sangui, Nikan launched an attack, tens of thousands of Qing troops attacked Ningwuguan in the north and south, and before the siege, the Qing army's red-clothed artillery fired at the city wall of Ningwuguan, wanting to use the red-clothed cannon to break the city, but after the city wall of Ningwuguan was reinforced by Jin Dashou, the Qing army bombarded the city wall with red-clothed cannons for five days and five nights, and was stunned that it did not shake the city wall of Ningwuguan.

Duoduo was reluctant to attack the city with the Eight Banners, and continued to attack with red-coated cannons, and launched a strong attack on Wu Sangui and Nikan on the south side of Ningwu Pass, ordering 30,000 Qing troops to attack Ningwu Pass, they thought that there were not many Ming troops in Ningwu Pass, at most only a few thousand.

There are more than 10,000 Dashun troops and more than 6,000 Ming troops in the Kening Wuguan, and they are not afraid of the Qing army's strong attack

Li Guo led the soldiers of the Dashun army to fight a bloody battle with the Qing army, he needed to use offensive and defensive battles to temper the recruits, 6,000 recruits under the leadership of veterans, fought with the Qing army on the city wall, and the Qing army advanced several times

The attack was defeated by the Dashun army.

Wu Sangui saw that the siege was very difficult, he and Nikan suggested that they go to the north side to join Duoduo, maybe they could concentrate all their efforts to break through Ningwu Pass in one fell swoop, Nikan did not believe in evil, so he had to break through Ningwu Pass from the south side, so that the Qing army could afford him.

The Qing army was attacking the city every day, and every day was beaten down by the Dashun army, he always thought that he was fighting with the Ming army, but it was the Dashun army that fought with the Qing army every day, and the Dashun army and the Qing army were tempered in the battle, and the six thousand recruits got the battle of blood and fire, and grew rapidly.

Nikan fought in full swing at Ningwu Pass, and Duoduo still bombarded with red-coated cannons, almost no casualties to the Ming army, and Ling Jingyang deliberately asked the recruits to go to Nancheng to fight side by side with the Dashun army.

The Qing army did not capture Ningwu Pass, and also lost thousands of soldiers and horses, Nikan continued to besiege Ningwu Pass, and the Great Western Army behind him set off from Yicheng and finally arrived at Taiyuan Mansion, knowing that the Qing army was attacking Ningwu Pass.

Li Dingguo ordered the troops to rush to the aid of Ningwu Pass, this time he wanted to annihilate the Qing army under Ningwu Pass, so that the Qing army felt the pain in the flesh, he led the troops towards Ningwu Pass, Nikan was still desperately attacking Ningwu Pass, and suddenly a scout rushed back and reported to him that the Great Western Army was coming from Jingle County to Ningwu Pass.

Nikan was busy letting Wu Sangui resist the attack of the Great Western Army, he ordered the attack troops, prepared for a decisive battle with the Great Western Army under the city, and then withdrew after repelling the Great Western Army, Wu Sangui led his troops and the Great Western Army to fight ten kilometers south of Ningwu Pass, and was personally led by Li Dingguo to attack, the Tiger Battalion and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion of the Great Western Army were very strong in combat effectiveness, and the Righteous Army was supplemented by the main force, and always maintained combat effectiveness.

After the battle between the two armies, Wu Sangui was defeated for thousands of miles, and Wu Sangui withdrew to Ningwu Pass, where Nikan led his troops to respond, but Li Dingguo did not hesitate at all, and led the main force to continue to attack the Qing army.

Nikan was pressed and beaten by the Great Western Army in Henan, and he was beaten violently when he arrived in Shanxi, and he was on fire in his heart, so he decided to fight with the Great Western Army.

He ordered Wu Sangui to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison outside Ningwu Pass, Wu Sangui had just been defeated by the Great Western Army, the army was not strong, and he had to defend the rear of the Qing army, he stubbornly stationed at the south gate of Ningwu Pass, praying that the Ming army in the pass would not go out of the city to fight.

Nikan led the main force of the Qing army to a decisive battle with the Great Western Army,

After the two armies fought, the blood flowed like a river, and the Qing army was put to death and came back to life, and even repelled several attacks of the Great Western Army, if it were not for Li Dingguo's excellent personal ability, commanding the troops and the Qing army to fight in turn, the Great Western Army had been defeated by the Qing army.

In Ningwu Pass, Ling Jingyang and Li Guo watched the melee under the city on the city wall, Ling Jingyang didn't know Li Dingguo, let alone Li Dingguo, Li Guo fought with the Great Western Army before, he saw the flag of the Great Western Army, and Ling Jingyang said: "Ling Dudu, it seems that the city is the Great Western Army?" ”

Ling Jingyang's eyes lit up, and he said to Li Guo: "The Great Western Army is also heroes, why can't we watch them fight alone." ”

Li Guo didn't want to support the Great Western Army, the Great Shun Army and the Great Western Army joined forces to resist the Qing Dynasty, but the generals of the two armies still did not get along with each other, Ling Jingyang saw that he did not move, and said to him: "General Li, if the Great Western Army is defeated, the Ming Dynasty will not be able to withstand it, and the Great Shun Army will have cold lips and teeth." ”

The Dashun Army and the Great Western Army are both righteous troops, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are the first generation of Gao Yingxiang's subordinates, after Gao Yingxiang died in battle, the two had a blood feud in the long battle, Li Guo is Li Zicheng's nephew, and naturally he is not used to the Great Western Army.

But after listening to what Ling Jingyang said, Li Guo thought for a while, nodded with Gao Yigong, Gao Yigong understood, and Qin Lie and Huang Daozhong ordered to go out of the city to support the Great Western Army.

Ling Jingyang ordered Gao Ding, Zhang Shun, Shi Tie, and Wei Lan to lead their troops out of the city to fight, and the Ming army and the Dashun army in the city quickly prepared to fight out of the city, and more than 10,000 Ming troops and Dashun troops rushed out of the city gate of Ningwu Pass, Wu Sangui hurriedly took the troops to go up, wanting to push the Ming army of Ningwu Pass back.

The Ming army and the Dashun army rushed out, Wu Sangui's army couldn't resist, more and more Ming troops, the Dashun army rushed out of the city, killing the Qing army to retreat on both sides, Wu Sangui organized five hundred with Guanning iron cavalry, wanting to rush into Ningwu Pass, and give the Ming army a bottom of the kettle.

Five hundred Guanning Iron Cavalry were ready for an assault, and suddenly dozens of Dashun soldiers appeared in front of Guanning Iron Cavalry, these people were Qin Lie and his subordinates at Shanhaiguan.

Many officers and soldiers of the Guanning Army knew Qin Lie, and Qin Lie also knew these comrades-in-arms, the two troops were a little flustered, Wu Sangui saw that the troops did not attack, and when he looked forward, it turned out to be Qin Lie, he and Qin Lie shouted: "Qin Lie, don't come back yet?" ”
