In contrast to the elation of the Ming army at the head of the city, it was the panic of the Jianzhou army under the city.

Azig came to the edge of the two white flag formations, grabbed a retreating Jianzhou cavalryman, and asked fiercely, "What's wrong?" Why did you retreat without permission? ”

The cavalryman wore a red tassel on his head and said with a sad face, "Lord Belle, our little flag master with a red flag, Yue Tuo, was knocked off his horse by a cannonball, and everyone has lost their backbone, and they plan to go back to the camp." ”

Azig furrowed his eyebrows, "Yue Tuo was injured, and his own soldiers escorted him back to the camp, what are you going to do with him?"

He commanded his own soldiers around him and scattered to restrain the retreating cavalry. While saying, "Since there is no one to command, the red flag will temporarily obey my orders." ”

He rushed to Huang Taiji's side on horseback, "Sibeile, why are you retreating?" Isn't this battle going on? ”

Huang Taiji's face sank like water, although he was the Great Khan of Jianzhou, but the strength in his hands now was not as good as the three brothers Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo.

Hearing this, he gently soothed, "Azig, the artillery fire of the Ming army at the head of the city is fierce, and the losses of the flags are too great. The Horqin Department was not very strong, and even retreated in advance, and the two red flags and two yellow flags they brought with them also retreated. ”

Azig said unrelentingly, "Since I started my army in Jianzhou, I have attacked Fushun, Sarhu, and Pingshenyang, which battle was not a great victory without braving artillery fire and suffering heavy casualties?" ”

"At present, these shelling by the Ming army are not as fierce as I was outside the Desheng Gate that day. I also hope that the Great Khan will quickly restrain the four banners of the right wing in order to achieve full success. ”

Although Azig is not as old as Huang Taiji in age and status, he is strong and has made great achievements, and he has always been in charge, which is unceremoniously reprimanded.

After all, Huang Taiji was a strong lord for a while, and he did not fight with Azi, but only advised him to return to his own position, promising that he would find a way to restrain the Right Wing Four Banners and Horqin Mongolia again, and encircle the Ming army as soon as possible.

After ordering the two yellow flags to regroup, Huang Taiji felt at a loss, his henchman Yue Tuo, who originally controlled the red flag, had been seriously injured and fell from his horse, and there was no one to speak to for a while.

After thinking about it, if you want to regroup, you can only consult with the respected big Baylor in the army.

Finding Dai Shan, Huang Taiji said earnestly, "Second brother, why is Zhenghong Flag retreating to the camp?" Now is the critical moment, if the Ming army outside the city is annihilated in one fell swoop, then I have nowhere to go in Jianzhou, isn't it beautiful?"

Dai Shan waved his horsewhip helplessly and said, "Great Khan, this battle can't be fought." The artillery of the Ming army was so powerful for some reason this time, and the faces of the staff leaders and assistant leaders below were as frightened as earth. ”

Huang Taiji said with a smile, "These sons and daughters still have less knowledge, in the battle of Ningjin and Guangning back then, which time didn't they brave such heavy artillery to beat the Ming army out of the city?" ”

Seeing that Dai Shan nodded in agreement, Huang Taiji took advantage of the situation to persuade again, "Second brother, you have been fighting for many years, which one does not respect your prestige?" Let's gather up the four banners on the right flank and change the formation of rushing and killing, and we will definitely be able to eat the Ming army outside the city. ”

Seeing that Dai Shan was still hesitating, Huang Taiji's face was a little gloomy and said, "Second brother, Second Bel Amin and Third Bel Mang Gurtai have always been unrestrained. My Great Khan looks beautiful, but in fact, it is just to shelter us from the wind and rain for the establishment of a state. ”

He looked at Dai Shandao, "If you don't support me again, I'm afraid that even Oba of the Horqin tribe will have to ride on the head of my Great Khan in the future." ”

Dai Shan, as the big Baylor, has always taken care of the overall situation, has a good relationship with each brother, and is the only one of the four Baylors in history to live a long life and die well.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Huang Taiji's efforts to defy public opinion this time and risk sending troops into the fortress, Dai Shan has always loved this younger brother.

Hearing Huang Taiji say this, Dai Shan also realized that there was something wrong with his withdrawal of troops.

After all, Horqin Oba is an outsider, and he can return to the camp without permission because he is distressed about the battle damage.

But as Huang Taiji's brother, he can't do it, but he must put on a posture of supporting Huang Taiji.

Otherwise, let these outsiders of the Korqin Department see the brotherly discord, and then spread it to the ears of those who have a heart, I am afraid that the hegemony established by Nurhachi will also be crumbling.

Nodding decisively and promised, Dai Shandao, "I will go to close the two red flags, and I will also send someone to persuade Oba." You bring two yellow flags to outflank from the right flank, and I will take the rest of the men and horses to block the return of the Ming army from the left flank. ”

When Huang Taiji saw that Dai Shan agreed to reorganize the army again, he also thanked him, and then left in a hurry.

Above the city, because the Jianzhou-Mongol coalition army retreated and reorganized, the sound of artillery gradually became scarce.

Unlike the others, who were beaming with joy at the moment, Chongzhen frowned at this time and asked Li Shouqi next to him.

"Uncle Xiangcheng, what is the Jianzhou army doing now? Isn't it to outflank our army again? ”

Li Shouqi, who was originally relaxed, heard this, and hurriedly looked at the city.

Sure enough, at this time, the Jianzhou-Mongol coalition army behind the two white flags was gathering again.

Subsequently, this army was in the shape of two arrows, and began to outflank the Ming army group that had gathered together!

The three general soldiers and the Ming border army, who were fighting bloodily with the two white flags, naturally knew the stakes, and the offensive was more ferocious, wanting to force back the frontal enemy first to avoid being outflanked by Jianzhou.

However, after Azig took over the Red Flag Yue Nursery Department, the overall formation was stronger. Although the two armies merged, the Ming army still struggled to break the clamp of the two white flags.

"Fire!" Li Shouqi was a little out of proportion, if he really let Jianzhou surround the Ming army, none of the 20,000 border troops might come back!

Chongzhen shook his head, he had fought against Jianzhou many times, and he knew the resilience of the other party.

In the siege of Jianzhou, there were even heavy casualties to the point of "the city and the corpse" before they could take a fortress of the Ming army.

War is not only a contest of utensils, but also a contest of spiritual will.

In this process, the Ming army, especially the Liaozhen army, was not as some people portrayed, all of them had no will to fight, and gave away the city.

Historically, it was during the siege that Huang Taiji saw that the Ming army in the city refused to accept persuasion even if they ran out of food to the point of cannibalism, and was shocked by this integrity, so he began to change Nurhachi's policy of despising the Han people and began to learn Han culture.

The battle has been fought to this point, and it can only be seen who can hold out until the last moment.

Sure enough, as Chongzhen expected, although the cavalry outflanked on both flanks of Jianzhou was more dispersed this time, they still suffered a lot of casualties under the attack of the cityhead artillery battalion.

But the commanders of these two armies were unaware, but quickly assembled and regrouped at the point where the artillery dead end was reached.

In just a few moments, they rushed violently to the flanks of the border army in a dense formation!

The Hebei Volunteer Army led by Sun Zushou and the second-rate troops of the Beijing camp were also firing support, but the sparse and disorderly ammunition could not stop the iron flow of the Jianzhou knights at this time.

On the path of the charge in Jianzhou, the resistance formations of the two border armies melted like ice and snow under the scorching sun and began to waver.

And the two white flags, which had been stubbornly defending just now, were also completely hideous at this moment, and began to bite the Changping soldiers who had been exhausted for a long time.

Chongzhen's face twitched, and he knew that he had made a mistake.

Not only did the Changping soldiers not return, but they also compensated the remnants of Datong and Xuanfu Town.

"Your Majesty, do you want to let Sun Zushou press it?" Li Shouqi asked tentatively.

"Let Sun Zushou take them back to the city." Chongzhen said astringently.

Li Shouqi was silent when he heard this, and then immediately turned around and was about to give a military order.

Suddenly, I heard Li Shouqi shout in surprise, "Your Majesty, there are reinforcements, and there are reinforcements coming to King Qin!" ”

Will there be reinforcements at this time? Chongzhen frowned and also looked at the city.

I saw a fine cavalry, rushing straight to outflank the Jianzhou cavalry of the Ming army, and there was a large group of infantry behind him to charge.

As the first general, he took the lead, bent his bow and arrows, and shot to death a leader in Jianzhou in an instant.

It was Man Gui who went to Liangxiang to appease the Shanxi soldiers!
