One side is too tired to escape, the other side is too tired to chase, and there are people everywhere in the muddy water in the rain.

Dorgon had taken off his armor and boots, though it was dangerous to stop and remove them. But as long as you take off the armor, you can definitely make up for the escape time, but the cotton armor is too heavy after the rain, and the boots are too difficult to pull out when you step into the mud.

"Your Highness, go quickly, I'll lead my troops to stop the enemy!" Wu Bai saw that the pursuers were getting closer, and drew his sword to summon the guards to kill him.

Dolgon was moved and said, "I will be kind to your people!" ”

Wu Bai is the sixteenth minister of Huang Taiji, and his father Wu Likan is the commander of the forward. Wu Bai himself joined the army at the age of sixteen, fought with Nurhachi and Huang Taiji, and when Dolgon took power, he was made a viscount of the first class. He is one of the ancestors of the Guerjia clan.

Wu Bai stayed to collect the rout, and when the Datong army chased after him, he gathered hundreds of people.

The Eight Banners fled, and the Datong Army also chased and dispersed.

More than a dozen Datong soldiers, facing more than 100 soldiers of the Eight Banners, the officer who led the team immediately blew the brass whistle.

Hundreds of Datong troops nearby gathered one after another, lining up to surround these fierce enemies. Both sides were so tired that they had no strength, and they were completely supported by willpower, and they didn't die after stabbing each other for a long time, but many of the Eight Banners were injured.

Wu Yong, who followed Zhao Han in Luling County, was finally transferred to Liaodong as a brigade commander at this time.

He was weak at the moment, his legs were trembling with exhaustion, and he stabbed Wu Bai's cotton armor several times in a row. The cotton armor that is swollen by the rain is even more difficult to break!

Fortunately, with more fights and fewer fights, a soldier stabbed Wu Bai so that his body shook, and Wu Yong took the opportunity to quickly and accurately stab a shot.

Right in the throat.

The sixteen ministers under the command of Huang Taiji slowly fell down with his neck clutched, blood gushing out of the wounds, mixed into the muddy water on the ground and difficult to distinguish.

"Catch a Tartar officer!"

There were Datong troops shouting nearby, and I don't know which Manchurian nobleman was captured.

Wang Tingchen carried a head, walked up to Wu Sangui and asked, "Which one is this?" ”

Wu Sangui looked at it and replied, "Sixteen ministers, Abudai, Fucha clan. ”

"Haha, kill a big fish." Wang Tingchen said with a smile.

Wu Sangui quickly got busy, and someone caught a general and came over and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Wu Sangui said: "Suo Hun, Niu Co Lu, the son of the five founding ministers of the puppet Qing Dynasty. ”

"Kill if you want to, don't talk too much nonsense!" Suo Hun was pressed into the mud, and he was still screaming for his life. This thing seems to be very unwilling, he is the general of Dorgon's Chinese army, and the army collapsed before he could fight.

Soon another captive came and asked Wu Sangui, "Who is this?" ”

Wu Sangui looked at it for a long time, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

The captive roared: "Grandpa's name is Zhang Ku, the Manchurian Baturu given by Taizong (Huang Taiji)!" ”

"If you are caught, you will be murdered!" The officer of Datong, who had captured him, immediately kicked over.

Zhang Ku fell into the muddy water, stiffened his neck and said: "I don't accept it, you make demon magic, if you are a warrior, you will kill it again with real knives and real guns!" ”

"Hahahaha!"

The Datong soldiers laughed.

To be honest, even within the Datong Army, they didn't take the holster of the firecrackle seriously. After all, you can only shoot once in the rain, which is completely useless in normal times, and who knows that it can work wonders at critical moments.

The Manchus didn't know that they thought that the guns of the Datong army could shoot all the time in the rain.

Therefore, after the collapse of the former army, the other Qing troops were frightened and did not dare to fight the Datong army head-on. In addition, the two wings also collapsed one after another, and the morale of the Eight Banners of the Chinese army fell, and as soon as the defeated soldiers rushed away, they began to scatter and slip away.

The pursuit was still going on, and many of the Eight Banners were so tired that they collapsed, lying in the mud and waiting to be captured.

The Datong army chased until they collapsed, often grabbing an enemy, tying him up in place, and then sitting on his captives to rest.

According to post-war statistics, more than 6,000 enemy troops were killed, more than 8,000 enemy troops were captured, and the remaining Tartars all ran away.

Of course, they didn't run away in formation, some ran to the northwest, some ran to the northeast, and many fled into the mountains of the northeast.

Dolgon ran all the way to Haizhou, waited for four days, and fled back to some of the routs. He counted the number of people repeatedly, and there were only more than 5,000 people left in the tens of thousands of troops. After two more days, more than 1,000 people fled back again.

At this time, the rainstorm weather has ended, and there are several light rains every three or five times.

After the heavy rain, Li Zheng led his army straight to Haizhou. In rainy weather, I didn't bring too much baggage, and all the artillery was left in Yaozhou.

"Abandon Haizhou!"

Dolgon continued to run away with his army, and the garrison and bannermen of Haizhou also fled, and they fled all the way to Anshan, still in shock.

In Anshan, Dolgon temporarily reorganized and incorporated many bannermen into the army. His strength was again nearly 10,000, but there was a serious lack of military equipment, and most of the defeated soldiers threw away their armor halfway when they fled, and some of the Eight Banners even threw away their weapons.

How can such an army, which lacks weapons and armor, fight against the Datong army?

Li Zheng occupied Haizhou and led his army towards Anshan.

Dolgon ran away again, this time a little more calmly, and the local Tartars of Anshan could also take their goods with them.

Li Zheng occupied Anshan and finally did not pursue it again. Because of the light advance to capture the two cities, the food of the Datong army was not enough to eat, so they had to stay in Anshan and wait for the military rations to be delivered.

Dai Shan was in Liaoyang, staring at Dolgon.

"That's all there is left of the Eight Banners?" Dai Shan looked incredulous.

Dolgon recounted the situation in detail, and said without tears: "The fire of the southern barbarians is so great that it can be fired in the rain. In the heavy rain, it is difficult for the Eight Banners warriors to shoot arrows, but the Southern Barbarians can freely release their guns, how can this battle be won? ”

Dai Shan said: "We have also captured a few of the Nanban's firearms, and even imitated hundreds. It's impossible to fire this kind of fire in the rain. ”

"But the fire gun is ringing in the rain!"

"I asked the former soldiers who had fled," said Dolgon, "and when the bell rang, the nearest was only four or five paces (eight or nine meters) apart, and the farthest was only about ten paces. It is difficult to charge quickly in the rain and mud, and the warriors of the Eight Banners can only approach slowly in formation, and the Southern Barbarians rely on this, and they only let go after approaching a few steps! ”

Dai Shan finally understood, and could even imagine that kind of scene.

Heavy rain, muddy, the Eight Banners Army was as slow as a turtle crawling, and little by little they approached in formation. Some are eight or nine meters away, some are one or twenty meters away, and then ...... Bang bang bang!

Whoever commands this kind of battle will have the same ending.

The front army of the Tartars did not collapse until the third row of guns, not because of how brave they were, but because they were blinded on the spot, and they did not react at once.

Dolgon's face was haggard and somewhat disheartened.

His two white flags suffered heavy losses, and Shunzhi's two yellow flags also suffered great losses. And half of the two red flags of Dai Shan's father and son were transferred away by Dai Shan in advance, and half were still fighting in Tianjin, so it can be said that there is basically no loss.

Now, Dai Shan's strength is super strong, and he is completely crushing Dolgon.

Dolgon said: "What to do next, second brother, you can decide." ”

Dai Shan didn't want to care about this mess, if he could take the lead, it would not be Huang Taiji who succeeded to the throne in the first place.

After thinking about it, Dai Shan said: "It is the rainy season now, and Shengjing and Liaoyang City are high and deep, and the southern barbarians will definitely not dare to attack." The most terrible thing is that Haizhou is gone, and the armies of Haoge and Mandahai can no longer take the official road, and can only come back from further north. Quickly send a message to Haoge, asking him to abandon Liaoxi and return to Shengjing with the whole army! ”

The occupation of Haizhou by the Datong Army was tantamount to splitting eastern and western Liao, and the Manchus had to spit out the western Liaoning corridor.

What Jinzhou, what Ningyuan, what Shanhaiguan, there is no use for fart. Without food supplies, no matter how many troops are left to garrison, they will all starve to death in the city.

……

Shenyang.

"Queen Mother, it's not good, Yaozhou is defeated!" A Han eunuch rushed to report the news.

Bumu Butai asked in surprise, "Where have the thieves gone?" ”

The eunuch replied: "The thief army has occupied Anshan, and the regent is guarding Liaoyang. ”

Liaoyang, right under Shenyang's nose, Bumu Butai was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.

At this moment, the Han people in Shenyang City have been running to tell each other in private. There are elated, there are apprehensive, and there are eager to try.

Shenyang and Liaoyang, the core areas ruled by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, had a large number of Han freemen. It was previously moved to Guanwai by Dolgon, and later all moved back, and now there are a large number of Han merchants and craftsmen in the city, and there are also a large number of Han farmers and tenants outside the city.

Nurhachi's tyrannical nature provoked the Han people to revolt again and again.

After Huang Taiji came to power, he immediately carried out reforms, first of all, to treat Han people leniently. He stipulated that the Manchu nobles and bannermen could only have as many serfs as they could, and that the rest of the Han people would be released and allocated land for the Han people to cultivate.

To tell the truth, Liaodong under the rule of Huang Taiji, as long as they were not arrested to be used as coats and serfs, the life of Han peasants was even better than in Daming.

This reform measure is also the key to Huang Taiji's ability to quickly stabilize the crisis!

Huang Taiji is also distributing land to the people!

In the past few years since Dolgon withdrew to Liaodong, the policy has gradually reversed. The land annexation became more and more serious, and the farther away from Liaoyang and Shenyang, the more chaotic the children of the Eight Banners became, turning all the Han peasants into serfs. The Han landlords also plundered the peasants' land through usury and turned the peasants into their own tenants.

This year is even more stormy, in order to fight, the Han peasants have been exploited too seriously, and even the villages around Liaoyang are already brewing peasant uprisings.

And the traitors who took refuge in the Qing Dynasty are still tearing each other down, and they are divided into three factions.

One faction is the old traitors represented by Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan, most of whom took refuge in Nurhachi. can be called a generation of traitors.

One faction is Kong Youde and Shang Kexi, traitors who surrendered during the Huangtaiji period. can be called a second-generation traitor.

One faction was the traitors who defected to the Manchus outside the Guanxi during the Dolgon period. can be called three generations of traitors.

The first generation of traitors and the second generation of traitors, their contradictions are extremely deep.

Because after the surrender of the second generation of traitors, Huang Taiji rewarded a large number of livestock and grain, which were obtained from the first generation of traitors. At that time, the old traitors called themselves "old people", called Kong Youde and others "new people", and complained that Huang Taiji had a new person and forgot the old one.

As for the three generations of traitors, they were suppressed by the first and second generations of traitors.

At this moment, in Shenyang City, three generations of traitors are the busiest. They had the shortest time to descend to the Qing Dynasty, and the siniquest sins, their official positions and titles were low, and their family property was not very rich, and they were trying to rebel and make meritorious contributions to the Datong court.

Hou Fangyu's father, Hou Sui, is not dead at the moment, and he was actually forced to become the leader of three generations of traitors, and they all counted on Hou Sui to preside over the overall situation and start an incident in Shenyang.
