Chapter 16: Long live

When Huang Taiji saw Man Gui, he was first incredulous, and then horrified.

The Datong border army led by Man Gui had been defeated in the previous Battle of Deshengmen.

Later, he packed up his men and participated in the Guangqumen Battle between Liaozhen and Jianzhou.

Therefore, Huang Taiji was still very impressed by this fierce general who was suspected of having Mongolian blood.

The question is, why did the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom hide this fierce general until this moment?

Oba, the head of Korqin who fought alongside Huang Taiji, was already a little suspicious of him at this time.

"Lord Belle, what's wrong? Why did so many Ming troops suddenly pop up?"

Huang Taiji did not answer directly, but just asked Oba to lead the Horqin Department to take up the new force of Mangui first, and at the same time ordered the soldiers around him to investigate.

A moment later, the soldiers came to report. "Great Khan, the situation is not good. Behind this Ming army is smoke and dust, it seems that there is still a large army coming, and many Ming troops are setting up tiger squat artillery, which seems to be preparing for a long time. ”

Sure enough, Huang Taiji thought to himself, he almost fell for the Ming Kingdom's praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches in the future.

As a general of the Ming Kingdom, Man Gui will never come to die senselessly.

It must have been the border army of King Qin who came from the northwest to greatly increase the strength of the Ming army, so Man Gui took the opportunity to set up an ambush.

And before the Ming army boldly went out of the city, as well as being bitten by Azig, and sending reinforcements to be ambushed by themselves, they were all putting a long line and catching big fish, with the purpose of eating the main force that they entered this time!

Even if the Ming army's losses in this fierce battle will not be less than that of Jianzhou, and even the entire army may be killed, but how can Jianzhou compete with the Ming State for the speed of manpower and army replenishment?

Maybe Jianzhou can still win this battle, but it will lose this war because of it.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji no longer hesitated, and immediately asked his own soldiers to pass the order, so that the Great Bel Daishan and the Eight Bel Azig immediately withdrew to the camp.

He put on a smiling face and went to find Horqin Tou Oba.

"Oba, I've sent someone to investigate, this Ming army is just a small force that was routed and lost by us before, and there is no threat!"

Oba Fox wondered, "Is that really the case?" Why do my sons think this Ming army is difficult to deal with? ”

"It's been a family for many years, and you still can't trust me?"

Under Huang Taiji's rather bewildering smile, Oba was finally persuaded and agreed to stand up to the Ming army that suddenly came to help, and wait for Jianzhou to come to support after eliminating the main force of the Ming army.

Unexpectedly, a moment later, Huang Taiji suddenly turned back.

"Oba, the situation has changed a little, it seems that the Qinwang soldiers from other parts of the Ming Kingdom are coming, in my opinion, let's withdraw first!"

Oba was a little frightened, and even more angry.

"So what now? On the edge of the Liao River that day, but you vouched for me, saying that the Ming Kingdom had countless wealth and was within reach. But now we're dying! ”

Huang Taiji looked apologetic, "These Qinwang troops of the Ming Kingdom are indeed cunning, and I didn't even find their ambush. ”

Then the conversation changed, "But they are just pretending to be in front of their monarch, and they don't dare to really confront us head-on." ”

He said again, "Oba, in my opinion, your Horqin Department should withdraw first, and our two yellow flags will stay here to help you block the entanglement of the Ming army." ”

Hearing Huang Taiji's assurance, Oba's face looked a little better, "That's it." There are so many Ming troops under the city, don't be surrounded by them. ”

Huang Taiji said disdainfully, "Those are just militiamen of the Ming Dynasty who arrested Ding at will." If they dare to come up and surround us, they will be sheep in the mouth of the tiger. You don't have to worry. ”

When he returned to his army, the soldiers around him asked Huang Taiji, "Great Khan, will we also withdraw the two yellow flags?" ”

Huang Taiji Yin sneered, "Don't worry, my Jianzhou Iron Horse comes and goes like the wind, and the Ming people can't stop us at all." ”

"When the Korqin people are finished, the cannons at the head of the city must be aimed at them first, and we will follow the vacancy of the cannon and follow the Mongols out of the battlefield."

Above the city, the atmosphere swept away the gloom just now.

Although it is not known why the Jianzhou army chose to retreat with the support of only a few thousand people in Mangui, everyone understands that this retreat will not be a temptation to the enemy again, but a real retreat.

The border army, which was originally facing annihilation, was still saved!

Li Shouqi shouted excitedly, "Want to go? Hit me hard! ”

Chongzhen observed from the side, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, look at this cavalry fleeing south, is it Huang Taiji?" ”

Li Shouqi was stunned for a moment and said, "The Great Khan's personal guards brought by Huang Taiji should all wear yellow tassels, right?" ”

"At the moment, this team of men and horses, the color of the helmet is not the same as the Jianzhou cavalry, but it looks like a Mongolian."

"That's it." Chongzhen nodded and said, "It was mentioned in the Tang newspaper that this time the state was established and entered the fortress, and it also brought a lot of Mongolian tribal soldiers. ”

He shook his head and said, "Huang Taiji must be trying to use these Mongol troops to attract our firepower, so that he can escape when our firepower is empty and reduce his own losses." ”

Li Shouqi suddenly realized, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, this thief is really treacherous, no wonder it was the Red Tassel and the White Tassel that withdrew first." ”

"In that case, why don't we fire the cannon first, and wait until these yellow tasseled Jianzhou soldiers are leaving?"

When Chongzhen heard this, he immediately felt that this was a very tempting resolution.

If this shelling can repeat the glory of Ningyuan last time, and directly seriously injure or kill Jianzhou Khan Huang Taiji, it is naturally the best.

Jianzhou really began to establish rules and regulations, rule Mongolia, and subdue Korea, in fact, all of them were completed under the leadership of Huang Taiji after the change of the country.

At this time, Dolgon was still underage, Amin and Azig were brave and unscrupulous, and Dai Shan and Mang Gurtai were not talented in the country, and if they staged another succession, maybe Jianzhou would collapse from within.

However, the artillery of this era has limited accuracy after all, let alone a sniper rifle, and it is a high incense to be able to hit the enemy without a shell landing, not to mention the expectation that the army will take the head of the general.

Chongzhen thought about it for a while, and thought of a more long-term place. "No, since Huang Taiji wants to retain his strength, let him go."

"Let's hit the Mongolian tribes that entered Kou first, but I also left two cannons, which can be regarded as a ride to Huang Taiji."

Li Shouqi left with his own order. Sure enough, under the shelling of the Ming army, the Horqin tribe, who took the lead in retreating, turned on their backs and suffered heavy losses.

It was the turn of the two yellow flags left behind the palace, but there were only two shells of Hongyi cannons, and the military appearance was much neater.

At this time, the main force of the Ming army under the city had been fighting hard for more than an hour at this time, and when they saw the Jianzhou soldiers leaving, they also had the intention to kill the thieves and were unable to attack.

And the only new force Mangui, because he only brought 1,000 Datong cavalry, dwarfed by the retreating Huangtaiji army, and did not dare to come forward to invite battle, but only led his subordinates to fall behind the enemy and fire and harass, and made some war achievements.

When the Jianzhou army completely retreated, the Changping army, the Datong army, the Xuanfu army, and the Shanxi army were combined into one place.

I don't know which Changping soldier who had already fought to the point of losing his strength mustered up his last bit of strength, and suddenly shouted Long live.

The shouts of the sergeants changed from sparse to neat, from the bloody border army, the volunteers under the city, to the Beijing camp at the head of the city.

The sound of "long live" came and went, resounding through the city, startling away the wild geese and illuminating the last blood-like clouds in the sky.
