"A decisive battle?" Chongzhen shook his head.

"I'm afraid there won't be a decisive battle."

"Jiannu only came to Eight Banners Manchuria, the Eight Banners Han Army, the Eight Banners Mongolia and the Green Camp did not come, Duoduo will not be stupid enough to fight a decisive battle with us, but there will definitely be one or two large-scale attacks."

"If you don't fight hard, Duoduo won't give up."

"Your cavalry battalion must be prepared for this."

"Yes." Hu Guozhu said solemnly, "The ministers will prepare carefully." ”

Chongzhen's gaze turned to the northeast again, and said quietly: "I don't know how Dagukou and Gaizhouwei are doing now?" Calculate the time should have been attacked by Jiannu. ”

……

"Hyun Heng? Hangheng! ”

Yan Yingyuan, who was familiar with his eyes, was shaken awake.

I hurriedly opened my eyes to see, but it was Chen Mingyu.

"Gongchen, what's the matter?" Yan Yingyuan asked with a yawn.

Chen Mingyu said helplessly: "It's already the beginning of the ugly year, it's time for you to be on duty." ”

"Oh, look at my memory, I forgot all about the night." Yan Yingyuan immediately got dressed and got up, put on cotton armor, and came to inspect outside Dagukou Town with a waist knife.

The town of Dagukou has been built into a platform.

However, because the north and east sides are close to the sea, there is no way to dig trenches, let alone slope protection, but fortunately there was a rammed earth retaining wall, which was reinforced with wooden fences after the new troops were stationed.

Yan Yingyuan returned to the same place after inspecting the circle and found that Chen Mingyu was leaning against the parapet and smoking ba.

Tamba mushroom was introduced into Fujian from Nanyang after the switch in Longqing, which can awaken the mind and refresh the mind and relieve fatigue, so it soon became popular among the people, and about the year of the Apocalypse, Nanzhili also began to plant Tamba mushroom, but there are not many.

But in the nineteenth year of Chongzhen, that is, last year, Nanzhili began to plant a large number of tamba mushrooms.

There are even workshops that specialize in processing tamba, which is cut into thin strips and then rolled into slender sticks of fine rice paper, packed in packs of 20 sticks.

The packaged tamba mushroom quickly became popular in the Shizi camp.

The popularity of the Shizi camp soon caused the Jiangnan gentry to follow suit.

Up to now, almost everyone in Jiangnan has smoked Ba Mushroom.

Even the dusty woman in the old courtyard began to smoke, because it could decompress.

By the way, the handicraft workshop for the production and sale of tamba mushrooms is not a shareholding system, but a wholly-owned holding by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and a ban has been issued jointly with the cabinet to prohibit any private businessman from selling tamba mushrooms privately.

Seeing Yan Yingyuan coming over, Chen Mingyu took out one from the cardboard box: "Come on a tamba mushroom?" ”

"I can't get used to this thing." Yan Yingyuan waved his hand and said angrily, "The taste is too strong." ”

"I'm new with mint in it." Chen Mingyu said, "It's not as rushing as before." ”

"I don't smoke mint when I add it, I don't like it." Yan Yingyuan said, "If you have this money, you might as well buy wine and drink." ”

Chen Mingyu shook his head and said: "Tamba can wake up and refresh your mind, but when you drink, you are easy to get drunk and make mistakes, this habit of Tambayu can really be changed......

"I'm afraid I can't get rid of this habit."

Yan Yingyuan sat down next to Chen Mingyu: "Why don't you sleep?" ”

"Can't sleep." Chen Mingyu shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm not sleepy, I just can't sleep." ”

While the two were talking, a continuous scream suddenly sounded on the pitch-black ice in front of them.

"There is a night attack by Jiannu!" One of the new army commanders in charge of the outpost immediately shouted, "Prepare the rocket!" ”

One of the sentries quickly picked up the prepared oil canister and slammed it to the ground, splashing the oil on the ground, while the other sentry quickly hit the flint, and the sparks fell on the oil on the ground, and it burst into flames.

Another sturdy sentry held a large bow, and threw a heavy arrow wrapped in linen and soaked in fire oil into the fire, and the arrow burst into flames, and then, from memory, shot an arrow in the intended direction.

The flaming rocket made a dazzling trajectory in the night sky and landed on the ice a hundred paces away.

Immediately afterwards, the ice also burned, and the Ming army had already prepared a pile of hay there.

Almost at the same time, the sentries of several other checkpoints also fired rockets at the ice, igniting the prepared haystacks, and the ice outside the mouth of Dagu was illuminated in an instant.

In the firelight, I saw that the ice was covered with black and pressed green camps.

Seeing this, the corners of Yan Yingyuan's mouth immediately bloomed with a cruel smile: "It's really here." ”

The next moment, the Green Battalion soldiers, whose whereabouts were exposed, immediately screamed and covered up.

"Ignition!" Chen Mingyu immediately yelled, "Hurry up and ignite the fire and blow up the ice!" ”

"Wait." Yan Yingyuan stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Don't worry, it's not too late to wait for them all to enter the grain." ”

Yan Yingyuan pulled Chen Mingyu to retreat behind the parapet, and after a while, the green battalion soldiers rushed to the edge of the ice, less than twenty steps away from the parapet, and the faces of the green battalion soldiers could almost be seen in the firelight.

"Ignition!" Yan Yingyuan was waiting for this moment, "Let go!" ”

The two men responsible for detonating the mine lit the fuse with flint.

The new troops, who had long been gathered behind the parapet, advanced even more, taking turns to release their guns.

The green battalion that rushed to the front immediately fell in rows, and the wails rang out.

A moment later, a series of explosions sounded on the ice, but hundreds of mines buried in the ice exploded, and the ice, which had become much more brittle due to the warmer weather, immediately collapsed.

The first battalion of 2,000 green battalion soldiers who stepped on the ice and attacked fell into the water one after another.

Fortunately, the water here is not too deep to drown.

The Green Battalion soldiers who fell into the water could no longer care about attacking, and fled from both sides by stepping on waist-deep water, but the sea hindered their movements, and now they became a live target for the new army.

Row after row of guns rang out, and row after row of Green Battalion soldiers fell.

Good guys, this is not a war at all, it is a massacre, a massacre without suspense.

After about half an hour, the sea gradually calmed down, and only the dozens of wounded soldiers of the Green Battalion near the parapet were still wailing miserably, and the wounded soldiers who were soaked in the sea were silent.

Only then did Yan Yingyuan send people to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded soldiers by the way.

……

Ten miles away, on a towering well car.

Seeing that the sea was gradually calming down and the fire was extinguished, Dorgon sighed softly.

Although he had guessed that this would be the result, when this result really appeared, Dolgon still couldn't hide his disappointment, Yan Yingyuan, right? This guy is really tough.

Originally, there was no danger to defend at all.

But under the management of Yan Yingyuan,

But he was stunned to give Dolgon the illusion of first-class danger.

When I got out of the well and returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, I saw Jierharang walking over with a disgraced face under the support of Tunqi and another solid mountain, and his battle robe was already soaked.

Obviously, Zilharang had also fallen into the water just now.

After a while, Tianjin Admiral Luo Yangxing reported the casualties.

This attack by Zilharang used the Tianjin Green Battalion.

"Master, more than 800 people were killed in the battle and more than 90 were seriously injured."

"Prince Zheng, you say, how should I punish you now?"

"According to the rules set by the old Khan, you can be punished as you want."

"Okay, it's refreshing enough, then take away the title of uncle regent, take the blue flag five oxen and give it to the blue flag, and then fine it for half a year and a fine of five hundred silver, do the kings think it's appropriate?"

"Right!" Gurmahun echoed loudly, "This punishment is the fairest. ”

Although Dai Shan, Zilharang and others were dissatisfied, they were also helpless.

For Dorgon is now following precisely the very system they maintain.

If they oppose it, they will slap themselves in the face and dig up their own foundations.

But Zilharang was still unwilling, and said angrily: "Then Prince Rui, you failed to attack Dagukou before, and the loss of troops and generals was not much better than this king, what should you do?" ”

"Then follow the rules set by the old Khan." Dorgon said with a smirk.

"Demote the title of Prince Rui of mine to the king of Doro County, take the white flag and five oxen to the white flag, and then fine me for half a year and a fine of one hundred taels of gold and one thousand taels of silver, do the kings think it is appropriate?"

"Okay." It was also Gurmahun who was the first to support Dolgon.

Zilharang said angrily: "Why do you only take the title of prince? Why don't you take the title of regent from your father? No matter how bad it is, he will demote his father regent to uncle regent. ”

"The regent of the emperor's father is the emperor's lord, and I have no right to take it away."

As soon as Dolgon's words came out, Zilharang was speechless.

But in his heart, Zilharang already hated Bumubutai very much.

Fulin is young, where do you have any opinions? Giving the title of regent to Dorgon's father, and allowing him to be called me, must have been the idea of Bumu Butai, this adulteress really lost all the dignity of the Qing Dynasty.

With a cold snort, Dolgon continued: "Prince Zheng, I think you have also made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, I can give you the opportunity to atone for your sins, as long as you rectify the green camp and recapture Dagukou before tomorrow evening, you will have to compensate for the merits, but if you can't recapture Dagukou before evening, then you will be punished for both crimes." ”

"You!" Zilharan was furious and said, "Don't deceive people too much, Dolgon. ”

"Prince Zheng, I don't have to bully others." Dolgon said coldly, "I'm just following the rules set by the old Khan, and that's what you want, isn't it?" ”

"But you can't just arrest me!" Jining Harang said angrily.

"What's wrong?" "You mean, hard bones can't find you, only soft persimmons that are easy to pinch can?" That's how Uncle taught you? ”

Dolgon's uncle was the younger brother of the old slave, Zilharang's father, Shulhaqi.

At this time, even Dai Shan couldn't listen to it, and said: "Prince Zheng, isn't it just a big gukou?" My Qing soldiers have Hongyi cannons and tens of thousands of green battalions and Han troops, so I don't believe that they can't take it. ”

"In the end, it's the second brother, sensible." Dorgon smiled and said,

"Prince Zheng, you'd better go back and think about how to fight Dagukou."

Zilharang left dejectedly, and Daishan and others also left one after another.

There were only a few henchmen left in the big tent, such as Dolgon and Hong Chengchou.

And then there is Hou Fangyu, a dog minion, who was also deliberately left behind by Dolgon.

Hong Chengchou gave a thumbs up to Hou Fangyu: "Hou Xiaoyou's hand used the strategy of inviting the king into the urn and the murder plan with a knife in the thirty-six strategies, which is really admirable and admirable. ”

Fan Wencheng also said with a smile: "Prince Zheng is really bitter now, and he can't say it. ”

Ning Wan also praised Hou Fangyu and said: "This is really terrifying." ”

"Don't dare to be." Hearing this, Hou Fangyu hurriedly said, "The juniors are just a fluke. ”

Dolgon also smiled and said, "I now hope that Yan Yingyuan can hold out for a few more days in Dagukou, so that I can borrow his knife to clean up Prince Zheng and Dai Shan." ”

"Now the only ones who dare to stand up and stir up trouble are the two old Daishan people on Jierharang Road."

"As long as these two old things are cleaned up, the remaining Luo Luohun, Luckdehun, Wakda, Bolo, Shuosai and Gurmahun will not be able to make any waves."

……

On the other side, Zilharang, Daishan, Azig, Luo Luohun, and Luckedhun had gathered to discuss how to take Dagukou.

Since Jiannu started the army from the old slave, he has accumulated a lot of generals in the past 50 years.

Like Luo Luohun and Luck Dehun, although they are still very young, they are already battle-hardened generals, and Azig is not to mention that he once led hundreds of thousands of Manchu and Han armies to conquer the pseudo-Shun, although he returned in vain, but this does not prove that he is incapable, because his opponent is Li Yan.

So a few people summed it up a little, and they had a countermeasure.

"Prince Zheng, a strong attack must not be forced."

Azig said: "If there is Eight Banners of Manchuria here, a strong attack may be possible, but it is definitely not possible to rely on the Green Battalion or the Eight Banners Han Army alone, so the trench attack method can only be used." ”

"Yes, only trenches." Dai Shan also thinks so.

"Fortunately, the mouth of Dagu is all plains, and the soil is soft and easy to excavate."

"Let's use four battalions of green battalions to dig in four directions at the same time."

"As long as the trench is dug outside the Ming army's fence fortifications, the next step will be simple."

"No, it's not enough to dig outside the fence." Azig said, "You have to dig directly under the Ming army's platform, and then bury gunpowder in the tunnel, and directly blow up the Ming army's platform!" ”

Luo Luohun said: "In this case, I'm afraid there is not enough time." ”

Dai Shan said: "There is enough time, just take it before the child hour." ”

Azig said: "In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Prince Zheng, you had better use the green battalion of Datong Town, especially Jiang Xuan's general Wang Fuchen, this person can really be called a fierce general, and the green battalion under his command is also quite daring." ”

Azig had been stationed in Datong for a long time and was quite familiar with the surrender of troops in Datong Town.

"Wang Fuchen?" Zilharang said thoughtfully, "Is it the one nicknamed Living Lu Bu?" ”

"It turns out that Prince Zheng has also heard of this person's name." Azig patted his thigh and said with a smile, "That's right, this person's nickname is Huo Lu Bu, also known as Ma Harrier, and he is good at riding and shooting. As a result, this person can't go under the gun! If the two armies really fought, the grass on Etuhui's grave would be three feet high. ”
