After nearly 2 hours of hard work, the red flag finally conquered Qinghe Fort.

Yue Tuo knelt on the ground and said: "This battle is marked with red flags, and the losses are two thousand, and you still ask Ama to punish you?" ”

The inlaid red flag was originally the third most flag-in-chief among the eight flags, but in just one day, more than half of the 7,500 people in Qinghe Fort were lost, and now there are only more than 3,700 left.

However, at this time, Shi Shan did not blame him, this battle Yue Tuo fought very resolutely, especially in the end, he ordered the army not to leave the city in time, so that the Ming army failed to take advantage of the chaos to break through, and it can be regarded as the total annihilation of this elite Ming army.

This Ming army is very strong and extremely cunning, and it is already a fluke that the red flag can take Qinghe Fort in time, if it really drags on until dark, I am afraid that there will be variables again.

Dai Shan helped Yue Tuo and said: "The warriors with the red flag fought bravely to kill the enemy, broke through Qinghe Fort, annihilated the elite of the Ming army, and raised the prestige of our Dajin army." If you should be rewarded, how can you be punished? ”

Dai Shan's words made Yue Tuo, who lacked fatherly love since childhood, feel an inexplicable warmth.

Soon Nurhachi led the main force of the two yellow banners to Qinghe Fort.

Obviously, the price paid for this entry is far beyond its imagination, and at present, the blue flag has lost 4 cattle records, 1 white flag inlaid with 1 cattle record, and nearly 13 cattle records with red flags.

Although Qinghe Fort was captured and Qinghe Road was captured, the main force of the Ming army was not captured, and it can be said that the strategic goal of Houjin has been defeated.

Dai Shan said: "Qi Qi Great Khan, Qinghe Road has been swept by my Dajin last year, and there are not many people who can plunder here. According to the existing intelligence analysis, it should be the main cavalry of the Ming army that ambushed the Zhenglan Banner in the west of Qinghe Fort, and it is likely to be the Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Li family. ”

"Although the three banners of the blue flag and the two white flags have now gone to pursue, this Ming army is strong, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents. We should continue to march in the direction of Shenyang, and it is best to encircle and suppress this Ming army; Even if we can't eliminate him, we will suffer a lot of losses in this battle, and we can only make up for it by plundering the population, livestock, and grain near Shenyang, otherwise we may find it difficult to survive this winter. ”

For an all-out attack on the hinterland of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty, Nurhachi still had some concerns.

He has been able to develop and grow in the past 30 years, relying on the word "Gou".

kept pretending to be a grandson in front of Daming and Li Chengliang, and after so many years, he finally waited until he had enough strength to have a showdown with Daming.

I thought that the battle of Salhu could defeat Daming in one fell swoop, at least deter Daming in a short period of time, and give myself enough time to digest the fruits of victory.

Unexpectedly, Da Ming is a hundred-legged insect that died but did not stiffen, and Li Rubai, who had always been cautious, actually took the initiative to attack himself by surprise.

At present, the casualties of the Eight Banners have been shaken to the national capital of Dajin, if the Ming Dynasty is further provoked, there is still a steady stream of soldiers and horses in the interior of the Ming Dynasty that can be transferred to Liaodong, but Dajin has almost no new soldiers to replenish.

Seeing that Nurhachi was still hesitating, Dai Shan continued: "Great Khan, there is no turning back when you open the bow, our Dajin and Daming are already immortal!" At present, we can only look at the present, and with the financial resources of the Ming Kingdom, we will not be able to gather a large army to attack us again. ”

Historically, Nurhachi followed Li Yongfang's advice and did not rush to Shenyang after annihilating the Ming army's three-way men, but took the original road first, and then exterminated Ye He to completely solve his worries.

At this time, Li Yongfang had been escorted to Shenyang, and in the end, Nurhachi still listened to Dai Shan's advice, and led the Zhenghong Banner and the Two Yellow Banners to continue north to Shenyang, while the Red Banner with large casualties stayed near Qinghe Fort to rest, and at the same time guarded the retreat of the whole army.

On the other side, Mang Gurtai was tossed by the Ming army, and there were iron tribules all over the ground for a while, and big trees cut down on both sides of the road to block the road.

Zhenglanqi chased the Ming army for several hours, but they didn't catch up, and now they can't figure out where they are now.

Looking at the crooked-necked pine tree next to the boulder in front of him, Mang Gurtai felt a sense of déjà vu.

So he asked Ala-ezhen, who was on the side, "Have we been here before?" ”

Since they had cleaned up the tribulus, they hadn't actually seen the cavalry of the Ming army, but the thick snow on the ground could not hide the traces of the horses' march, so they looked for the horseshoe prints and pursued them all the way.

Only then did he realize that he must have been brought into a circulating mountain road by the Ming army, and he was actually in a circle.

Just as he hesitated to chase after him, the sound of a large number of cavalry running behind him was heard.

It didn't take long for Huang Taiji and Du Du to ride their horses over.

Seeing Du Du, Mang Gurtai said angrily: "What's the matter with your white flag?" I was ambushed by the Ming army and didn't even check the battlefield carefully, so I was ambushed again by them in the same place later. ”

This matter Du Du really cheated Mang Gurtai, and he was a little reluctant to go.

Huang Taiji hurriedly played a round and said: "Du Du also fell for the Ming army, and was led astray by their suspicious soldiers. ”

"Why is the Three Baylors moving so slowly?"

Being asked by him, Mang Gurtai also felt ashamed, so he had to tell the story.

Among the several people, Huang Taiji's thinking was the most keen, so he hurriedly asked people to bring a map.

After opening the sheepskin, Huang Taiji pointed to an intersection and said: "Sanbeile, the main force of the Ming army must have secretly gone north at this point, and this road leads to Shenyang." ”

Then Huang Taiji asked again: "How many people ambushed the Ming army with the blue flag?" ”

Mang Gurtai said: "I don't know the specific number of the Ming army, but what stopped me on the mountain road was the iron-clad heavy cavalry of the Ming army, all of whom were wearing armor, about five hundred. But the 4 Niu Lu I left behind were killed by the Ming army in less than a pillar of incense. ”

Huang Taiji's face was solemn, and he said: "It is impossible to eat your 4 Niu Lu in a short time without several times the number of troops, it seems that the number of Ming troops is not less than your blue flag." It's just strange why they didn't choose to continue ambushing you, but let you waste time in this circular mountain path? ”

Suddenly, he realized that he might have been fooled, and that the Ming army was doing this simply to cover the retreat of their infantry.

The small Qinghe Fort can only accommodate a few thousand Ming troops at most, and the intelligence says that Yang Hao is in Qinghe Fort to punish the division, and the main force of the Ming army should have retreated overnight.

Now that the snow is falling, the mountain roads are estimated to be more difficult to navigate, and the infantry may march much slower than usual, so there should still be a chance.

So Huang Taiji decided to venture north to Shenyang to pursue the Ming army.

Du Du has the least troops, and his seniority is low, so he naturally doesn't dare to have any opinions.

However, Mang Gurtai said: "The Great Khan just ordered us to move near Qinghe Road, and now that it is dark, it is too risky for a lone army to go deep into Shenyang, do you want to ask the Great Khan first?" ”

Huang Taiji said: "The Han people have a saying that 'the generals will not be subject to the orders of the foreign army', and the Great Khan ordered us to destroy the Ming army, and there was no place to be specified. If the Three Baylors are worried about the Great Khan's punishment, can they not go? ”

Mang Gurtai originally had nowhere to vent his anger, where could he withstand the excitement of Huang Taiji?

Soon, the Three Banners braved the heavy snow to march to Shenyang.

The days in March on the Liaodong Plain are still relatively short, especially on this kind of blizzard day, and the sky has darkened early.

Suddenly, a rattling arrow pierced the sky, leaving a long tail in the air, and then a firework exploded in the air.

Zha Huizu's face was a little gloomy, and it was actually red fireworks. I thought that this kind of blizzard day Tartar would give up the pursuit, but I didn't expect that tens of thousands of Tartars would go north.

But fortunately, according to the calculation of time, now the Southern Route Army should have arrived at Fengji Fort, and then it will be far away from the mountains, and the road to Shenyang will be smooth, and it is too late for the Tartars to chase after them now.

Thinking of this, there was a smile of contempt on his face.

Soon a fast horse came galloping, and the person on the horse was Li Rubai's personal soldier Ma Laixi.

Ma Laixi anxiously asked, "Where is the young general?" ”

Zha Huizu said: "The young general has already led his troops to intersperse the Yahu Pass, after leaving me here to break off, what happened to you in a panic?" ”

Ma Laixi said: "Heavy snow closed the mountains, the roads were difficult to travel, and the progress of our army was slow. The road ahead has collapsed due to the blizzard, and the army has been blocked, and the road is being reopened, which has been delayed for a long time. The marshal hopes that you can hold the Tartar for a few more hours. ”

When Zha Huizu heard this, his face changed in an instant.
