Chapter 14 The Qing Army Enters the Customs

With Li Zicheng's personal visit to the front line, the morale of the Shun army was greatly boosted, and the soldiers were vying for the lead.

After half a day of fierce fighting, the sky will dawn.

The Guanning army deployed along the Shihe line in Shanhaiguan was defeated and retreated, especially the main battlefield in the Hexi area, after Li Zicheng put into the elite cavalry known as the "three walls", the real trump card under his command, the defenders here were completely annihilated.

Gao Di was covered in blood, his face was covered with mud, and he walked into Wu Sangui's tent angrily.

He slammed his helmet on the table and shouted, "The North Wing is lost!" What about the reinforcements you are talking about? Where's the reinforcements? ”

Wu Sangui was splashed by the tea on the table, and wiped the tea leaves off his face with his hands, and his face was cloudy.

Seeing that Wu Sangui didn't speak, Gao Di was even more angry, pointing at his nose and scolding: "Lao Tzu believes in your dog's evil!" ”

At this time, Wu Sangui's guerrilla Guo Yunlong walked in quickly with a letter in his hand and fell to the ground.

"My lord, it's Dorgon's letter."

Wu Sangui slapped the table and said eagerly: "Hurry up! Gao Di also turned his head to look at Guo Yunlong.

"Although Bo is guarding Liaodong and is my enemy, don't doubt it because of the past. If he leads the people to return, he will be sealed with his homeland and promoted to become a vassal king, and a national revenge will be avenged, and a wealth can be guaranteed, and the descendants of the future generations will enjoy wealth and prosperity, such as the eternal mountains and rivers. The war was in danger, and he did his best to do it. Dolgon's words came out of Guo Yunlong's mouth, and Wu Gao and Wu Gao looked at each other after hearing this.

"Mr. Gao, what do you think?" Wu Sangui said slowly.

"Look at the, try your best to do your best. If you want Lao Tzu's family to die, no way! The family is gone, what's the use of dropping? Go be a bare-bones general. ”

"This Dorgon is the Lord who does not see a rabbit and does not scatter an eagle. At this point, can we still regret it? We're grasshoppers on a rope now. In this way, you and my family joined forces and went out of the city to rush at him for a while to drag him down. How about I immediately set out to meet Dolgon, and beg him to send his troops quickly, and to strike them head to end. ”

Gao Di was angry, and when he heard Wu Sangui say this, he also calmed down and said, "Just do as you say!" ”

Deng San lay on his back on the ground in a daze, next to the corpses of Big Brother You and Dog Baby.

In the distance, the gates of the city have been breached, and from time to time the surrendered Guanning army is escorted out of the city.

"Hey, hey."

Deng San opened his eyes and looked at the sky, but did not react.

"Hey, idiot, call you!"

"You're a fool!" Deng San got up and sat up and replied.

"Look fool, I'm behind you." Deng San slowly turned his head when he heard this, only to see the corpses stacked together, and a hand stretched out from the pile of corpses, removing the corpses on the top, revealing his face.

The man was unkempt, his hair drooping to cover half of his face, and he slowly crawled next to Deng San, revealing a mouthful of rotten teeth when he opened his mouth to speak.

"You're playing dead, too?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, a foul smell came to his face, and Deng San shook his head again and again, pinched his nose and said, "Good guy, eat?" It smells so bad in your mouth. ”

The man grinned, feeling embarrassed, shifted his body, turned his face to the other side, and introduced himself: "I'm sorry, this mouth is born with a stink, and the doctor can't cure it." My name is Rotten Tooth, what's your name? ”

"Deng Sanpi."

Rotten Tooth patted Deng San's arm, then pointed to the corpse next to him, and asked, "Your brother?" ”

Deng San nodded, lay down again, and said, "My brother was killed by me. ”

"Hey, what's the matter, this is a war, who can not die? Look at your crying and mourning. ”

Deng San didn't want to deal with him, but the rotten teeth pulled out a grass from the ground and chewed it, as if he was talking, and pulled Deng San to chat.

The two chatted with each other, it turned out that Rotten Tooth was originally from Liaoxi, and he fled to the pass, but he was arrested by the army, and he was almost encountered by Deng San.

"Boom...... Boom......"

Rotten Tooth seemed to feel the ground shaking under his head, and asked Deng San, "Do you feel anything?" ”

Deng San turned his head left and right, "What?" ”

"Stomp .... Stomp .... Stomp. ”

"Did you hear that? There is a sound, you put your ear to the ground and listen. After hearing this, Deng San put his head on the ground and listened carefully.

"Trample stomping .... Stride, stomp..."

Deng San frowned, and said uncertainly: "Like the movement of a horse, most of them are the cavalry of King Chuang." ”

After speaking, he looked at the rotten tooth, and saw him lying on the ground, with a frightened face: "No, the horse in the pass is not running like this, this is a Mongolian horse, it is a Tartar, and the Tartar is coming!" ”

"Tartar? Isn't this fortress still there? ”

Rotten Tooth picked up Deng San, "Don't talk nonsense, run for your life quickly, I guarantee with my life, it must be a Tartar!" ”

I saw that on the other side of Shanhaiguan, a black torrent entered the pass with an unstoppable momentum from the South Water Gate, the North Water Gate, and the Guanzhong Gate. The torrent was divided into three and converged into one, and the Guanning soldiers in Guancheng stood beside the street with white cloth bands wrapped around their arms.

After this black torrent flowed into the pass, those who saw that their arms were wrapped in white cloth belts did not kill, and the rest were all run over.

After the Shun army that broke the northern wing of the city entered the city, they were advancing inward in formation with swords and shields, and the Guanning army in front of them was retreating, and the situation on their own side was very good.

Not far from the corner, a large number of cavalry suddenly poured out, all wearing cloth and iron nail armor, with tall horses under their hips, and crashed straight into the direction of the Shunjun infantry formation.

The commander of the infantry of the Shun army thought that it was Wu Sangui's family, and commanded the pikemen to line up in front, followed by the sword and shield hands, ready to confront the cavalry head-on.

"Shoot the arrows!" At the sound of the order, the last archers of the team unleashed their arrows.

The first rider wore white armor, which was extremely conspicuous.

In the face of the flying arrows, he did not dodge or dodge, and waved the big knife in his hand to cut the arrows that were shot at the front door. The rest of the arrows that shot at him seemed to hit an iron plate, and fell to the ground softly.

The man let out a strange cry, and with his other hand he drew his axe from his waist and threw it at the infantry of the Shun army, the axe spun rapidly and slashed into the face of a pikeman.

The pikeman's eyes widened, looking at the man beside him in horror, and he fell backwards.

The flying axe of the Baijia Qing army was just the beginning, and the cavalry following behind him threw their axes one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the front row of the Shun army's infantry formation fell to the ground, wailing nonstop.

The commander of the troops realized that something was wrong, the tactics of this flying axe were not like those of the Ming army.

But it was too late, the two armies collided together, and the infantry formation was shattered like powder in an instant, and the commander of the troops only felt a light neck, and his head flew up, spinning constantly.

Dolgon took a deep breath before exhaling it for a long time, embracing the sky with open arms, and shouting, "This is the breath of the Central Plains!" How wonderful! ”

Even Zilharang, who usually doesn't deal with it, chimed in: "Wonderful! Hahaha. ”

Looking at the Shun army on the opposite side, the army formation was a long snake, stretching for more than twenty or thirty miles, and was fighting with the Guanning army led by Gao Di.

Dolgon immediately arranged, with the main formation on the left and Wu Sangui on the right, arranged in rows. Just as he was dispatching his troops, a strong wind suddenly blew and dust flew, and Dolgon said to himself, God help me.

Taking advantage of the low visibility, the cavalry formation was calmly arranged, and the Shun army in the distance still did not find them.

"Duoduo, Azig obeys the order and kills Li Chuang."

In a moment, the wind stopped, and with Dolgon's order, the Qing army roared out, thousands of horses galloped, and arrows flew like locusts.

The Shun army was attacked from the front and back, and there was a great chaos, and someone shouted: "It's the pigtail soldiers, the pigtail soldiers are coming!" ”

Although desperately resisted, but the strength and weakness were easy to form, and the army of Wu Sangui had been fighting fiercely for a day and night, and in the face of the sneak attack of the Qing army that was waiting for work, it was about to collapse at the first touch.

Li Zizhi set up a small pendulum on the Fu, and listened to the deputy general's report that Liu Zongmin led the elite "three walls" could not defeat the Qing army head-on and suffered heavy losses, and Liu Zongmin himself was seriously injured, knowing that the defeat was decided. Ordered the army to retreat quickly, and Li Guangxian and Gu Kecheng were ordered to intercept the pursuit of the Qing army.

In the early years of the Liukou period, there were many defeats, and the kung fu of escaping and retreating was also practiced, coupled with the desperate interception of the soldiers after the break, Li Zicheng could be regarded as calmly withdrawing.

Song Xiance heard that the fugitive soldiers said that the pigtailed soldiers were coming, and reacted that it was the Qing army that entered the customs, grabbed a horse and fled alone, and did not follow Li Zicheng's army.
