Aobai, Guarjia, Manchuria with yellow flags. , the grandson of Suoerguo, the leader of the Suwan tribe, the nephew of Fei Yingdong, the founding father of the Later Jin Dynasty, and the third son of Wei Qi, the governor of Bamen.

Ao worships the door and is proficient in riding and shooting. He followed Huang Taiji to conquer the Quartet, conquered Phi Island, participated in the Battle of Songjin, quelled the peasant uprising, made great achievements, and became the most trusted military general of Huang Taiji, known as "the first warrior of Manchuria". After Huang Taiji died of illness, Ao Bai also wanted to support the ninth son of the emperor Fulin to ascend the throne, but Dolgon was powerful, and finally Dolgon became the emperor, Fulin became the crown prince, and Ao Bai also became the minister of parliament, a very popular minister.

In the spring of 1640, Aobai became the deputy commander of the capital, and was promoted to the first rank for military merits;

In the summer of 1642, Ao Bai was named the capital by Huang Taiji, and Ao Bai was once again promoted to the second class duke.

Ao Bai made great contributions in the Battle of Phi Dao, the Battle of Songjin and the Battle of Xichong.

First, let's talk about the Battle of Phi Dao, because of this battle, Aobai was named the first Baturu in Manchuria.

During the Apocalypse, after Liaodong fell to the Later Jin, the Ming general Mao Wenlong led the army to retreat to Phi Island, echoing with the Ming army on the front line of Ningjin outside the Guan, and acting as horns for each other, harassing and containing the forces of the Later Jin, so that the Houjin suffered from the enemy. Houjin has always regarded Phi Dao as a major problem, from Nurhachi to Huang Taiji, they have been planning day and night in an attempt to pull out this nail.

In the second year of Chongde (1637), Huang Taiji ordered Bei Zishuo to attack Phi Island with Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi. Due to the fact that Shuo Zhi could not be attacked for a long time, Huang Taiji ordered the king of Yingjun Azig to take over, and Ao Bai was from the army. After repeated discussions with the generals, Azig formulated an attack plan of dividing the troops into two routes and attacking the east and the west: one way from the sea with huge ships to pose a frontal attack posture, deliberately attracting the attention of the Ming army defending the island; The other way, with the elite light boats, advanced rapidly, and penetrated directly into the key position in the northwest corner of the island. The latter road was the key to this attack, and Ao Bai took the initiative to ask for help, and together with Zhun Ta, he issued a military order to Azig: "If we can't wait for this island, we will not come to see the king." Pledge to return to the island. ”

Ao Bai and Zhun Ta then led their troops to cross the sea to launch an attack, but the Ming army had already been in a tight position, and the Qing army's attack was frustrated and the situation was urgent. Ao Bai bravely rushed to the Ming army's position, braving artillery fire and engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. The Qing army then followed up in one fell swoop, landed on Phi Dao, and raised fire to guide the main force to attack. Phi Dao conquered.

When the good news reached Shengjing, Huang Taiji was overjoyed and personally wrote a tribute to Nurhachi to comfort his father's soul in the sky. Huang Taiji believed that although Phi Dao was an island, the significance of conquering it was far above the occupation of important cities, so he ordered that the soldiers should be rewarded preferentially. Ao Bai was promoted to a third-class male with his first merit, and was given the title of "Manchuria's First Baturu" (warrior).

Second, let's talk about the Battle of Songjin, Ao Bai led the army to defeat Hong Chengchou, and his military achievements were outstanding.

Jinzhou was an important military town of the Ming Dynasty in western Liaoning, when Liaodong had fallen, and Jinzhou's position was more prominent. The south of Jinzhou City is Songshan City, the southwest of Jinzhou is Xingshan City, the southwest of Xingshan is Tashan City, and 200 miles west of Jinzhou is another important town Ningyuan. These fortresses constituted the Ming Dynasty's military defense system outside the Guan. If the Qing army wants to enter the Central Plains, it must first take Ning, Jin and other cities. The war between the Ming and Qing dynasties for Jinzhou was inevitable.

In the sixth year of Chongde (1641), Ao Bai entered Jinzhou from Prince Zheng Jierharang. Hong Chengchou, the governor of Ming Jiliao, led an army of 130,000 to come to the aid and marched to Songshan in early August, echoing with the Jinzhou defender Zu Dashou Department, and set fire weapons to storm the Qing army. Under the heavy artillery fire of the Ming army, the right flank of the Qing army commanded by Zilharang was defeated. Azig, the king of Wuyingjun, sent an elite escort to reinforce him. At that time, Ao Bai led the yellow flag to protect the army, and met the Ming cavalry on the road, so he went up and defeated the other party. At this time, Ao Bai did not wait for the military order, and decisively decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and before the Ming infantry position, he ordered his subordinates to dismount and fight on foot, and then defeated the Ming army. Ao Bai charged into battle, won all five battles, and was promoted to the first-class Meler Zhangjing for his merits. In August, Huang Taiji personally led a large army to the west to aid Jinzhou's division. Hong Chengchou commanded the Ming army to break through the siege by separate routes, and the general soldiers Wu Sangui, Wang Pu, Tang Tong and others led the army to retreat along the coast. The Qing army intercepted and killed along the way from Jinzhou Road to Tashan Road. Aobai, Azig, Nikan and other troops lined up to the sea to intercept it, and the Ming army was defeated and defeated. The Battle of Songjin was related to the life and death of both the Ming and Qing dynasties. Since then, the power of the Ming Dynasty has declined, and the defeat has been decided. In June of the following year, Ao Bai was promoted to the commander of the Protector Army and became a figure with a high status among the generals of the Eight Banners.

The great victory of Songjin laid the foundation for the Qing army to enter the customs and seize the domination of the whole country. Before and after entering the customs, he still made great achievements and was promoted frequently.

Third, the battle of Aobai Xichong, defeating Li Zicheng, Aobai should be the first contribution.

After entering the customs, Aobai's main task was to pursue the peasant army. In October of the first year of Shunzhi (1644), Ao Bai followed the general of Jingyuan, Prince Ying Azige, through northern Shaanxi, attacked Li Zicheng's peasant army, which had retreated to Xi'an, led the army from Inner Mongolia into northern Shaanxi, captured four cities, surrendered thirty-eight cities, and then waved his army south. Later, Duoduo led his army to attack Tongguan and approached Xi'an. Li Zicheng was forced to abandon Xi'an and retreat to Huguang. Azig was ordered to lead the army to exterminate the "remnants of the Liukou", and Ao Bai and others then divided their wings and marched by land and water, and fought thirteen battles in Dengzhou, Henan, Chengtian, De'an, Wuchang and other places in Hubei, and inflicted heavy losses on the Dashun army. In June of the second year of Shunzhi (1645), Li Zicheng was killed in Jiugong Mountain, Hubei, and the Great Shun army collapsed. The Qing army captured 63 cities in Henan, Huguang, Jiangxi, Nanjing and other places.

Defeating Li Zicheng, the Qing army began to deal with the Great Western Army. In the first month of the third year of Shunzhi (1646), Ao Bai led the army of Duoduo, the prince of Suiyu, to attack Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi peasant army. When the Qing army learned that Zhang Xianzhong had retreated to the Xichong area, Ao Bai once again acted as the vanguard and led the leading troops to snipe. When the two armies met, Ao Bai and the others took the lead and rushed forward. The Great Western Army could not resist and was defeated, and Zhang Xianzhong was also killed in this battle. The Qing army broke through more than 130 Daxi military camps, beheaded tens of thousands, and captured more than 12,200 horses, mules and livestock. After defeating the main force of the Great Western Army, Ao Bai and others continued to go deeper, basically purging the peasant army in Sichuan. The rest of the Great Western Army retreated to the Yunnan-Guizhou region under the leadership of Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo and continued to resist the Qing Dynasty. Defeated the Great Western Army, and Ao Bai was the first to act.

Ao Bai is loyal to Huang Taiji because of Huang Taiji's kindness, which leads to his always wanting to establish Fulin as the emperor, but it backfired, and Fulin became the prince.

It can be seen that Ao Bai is not only a powerful general on the battlefield, but also a loyal confidant of Huang Taiji, and he has always supported Fulin, not Dolgon.
