Huang Taiji is also in the Songshan area.

The Ming Kingdom is betting on all the family funds.

On the Qing side, the total amount is all the money bet.

However, Huang Tai Chi has one advantage.

This person who looks a little ugly and has a very domineering name actually has a very good quality, the more nervous he is, the clearer his brain is, and the less mistakes he makes. It can be said that among the many emperors of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji should be the first in ability, and Kang Mazi's ability, compared with him, is not even worthy of carrying shoes.

So far, the Qing side has lost a few small battles and has been beheaded by hundreds of people.

However, Huang Taiji is not worried at all, he has already seen Hong Chengchou's change of formation, and touched the bottom of Hong Chengchou, if you want to evaluate, it is: "This formation has the right to the front, and there is no defense, it can be broken!"

"Authority" is a military term, "there is power in the front, but there is no defense" means that the focus is on the front, and the defense in the back is weak. In layman's terms, it is called "anticlimactic". This is because Hong Chengchou wants to concentrate his troops and gradually move forward, and he considers that the Houjin army will be sent to the front, so he will focus on deploying in the front. When an excellent military commander commands such a major campaign, the central army and the front power must be strong, and the rear defense must not be weak, the left flank and the right flank must be equally emphasized, and the front, rear, left, right, and center must be deployed.

Hong Chengchou accepted the lesson of Yang Hao's failure, and the lack of division of troops and the arrangement of front power were his advantages, but he did not realize that the weakness of the rear defense was his weakness. People win with their long, and they lose with their short.

Huang Taiji was pondering how to defeat Hong Chengchou.

This is not a difficult task for him.

He already had a rough plan in his mind, took out the sand table, and planned against the sand table how to improve the details of the plan.

The devil is in the details!

At this moment, an intelligence officer suddenly ran in: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong. ”

Huang Taiji couldn't help but be stunned: "What's the matter, don't panic, say it quickly." ”

"Prince Zheng took thirty Niu Lu's troops and attacked the Qingshan Military Fort in Xuanfu. However, there was news of defeat. The intelligence officer said.

Huang Taiji's pair of thick eyebrows couldn't help frowning: "What are you talking about? Ji'er Harang was defeated? The forces of the Ming Kingdom in Xuanfu were basically transferred to Songshan. The Ming army insisted on drawing troops and horses, and they could draw them too. But the sky can draw more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. Among the generals of the Ming Dynasty, there are no amazing talents. ”

"Zilharang is a figure who fights old battles. With the strength of his hands. No one in the Ming army should be able to defeat him. ”

"It is said that Prince Zheng led thirty Niu Lu to attack the Qingshan Military Fort. But in that battle, something very strange happened. Prince Zheng was more than a hundred steps away, but he was shot by He Xuan with a bow and arrow through a person. Not only that, but He Xuan fired more than 100 arrows in a row on the city wall, shooting all the generals in these thirty Niu Lu. The remaining more than 8,000 people, not even a single general, and in the end there was only a helpless rout. But fortunately, none of these soldiers and horses dispersed, and most of them returned to Shengjing. ”

"That's right. After listening to the whole process, Huang Taiji couldn't help but be stunned: "In this way, it is indeed possible for Zierharang to lose." Zilharang died in a small military fort, and I gave him this task, which I thought would be fairly easy to accomplish. But he didn't expect that he would die there. ”

Huang Taiji had just finished speaking, and his nose began to bleed incessantly.

Huang Taiji is also older now, and his health is getting worse and worse.

Especially not long ago, his favorite Concubine Chen died.

Huang Taiji's Concubine Chen, Min Huigong and Yuan Concubine, Borzigit, named Hai Lanzhu. Born in the 37th year of Wanli, she is the daughter of Korqin Belle Zhaisang in Mongolia and the niece of Empress Xiaoduanwen. In the eighth year of Tiancong (1634), Hai Lanzhu entered the Qing Palace at the age of twenty-six.

Huang Taiji named the East Palace where Hai Lanzhu lived "Guan Ju Palace". Hai Lanzhu's title and the name of the palace where she lives fully express Huang Taiji's heartfelt love for Hai Lanzhu. Concubine Chen is deeply favored by Huang Taiji, and the two have a deep relationship. On the eighth day of the seventh month of the second year of Chongde (August 27, 1637), Concubine Chen gave birth to the eighth son of Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji granted amnesty for this, which was a measure that would only be taken when the crown prince was established. Mother and son are the most favored by Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji led the Eight Banners and the Iron Cavalry of Monan Mongolia Horqin and other troops to fight a decisive battle in Songshan Jinzhou with the Ming Dynasty army Hong Chengchou. Just when the life-and-death struggle of hundreds of thousands of sabers and swords on both sides was in full swing, the envoys of Shengjing came to report in panic on the 12th that "Concubine Guan Ju Palace is sick". Huang Taiji, who loved both the country and the beauty, heard that Hai Lanzhu was ill, and immediately summoned the generals to let them stay and hold on, and he drove back to Shengjing in the early morning of the next day. All the way in a hurry, to the 17th night stationed on the old side, just after a watch, the Shengjing envoy reported that "Concubine Chen is sick".

Knowing that Hai Lanzhu was seriously ill, Huang Taiji pulled out the camp overnight, urged the war horse, and couldn't wait to plug in his wings and fly back to his concubine. In the early morning of the 18th, he told Hai Lanzhu that he had died of anger for the third time "Concubine Chen", for the Huang Taiji on the way was really like five thunders, he flew into Shengjing, rushed into the Qing Gate, and went straight to Guan Ju Palace, but it was indeed a step too late, Guan Ju Palace was fragrant and jade, and Hai Lanzhu, who was Chinese New Year's Eve three years old at the time, had closed his eyes forever. Here, only the grieving figure of Huang Taiji stroking the corpse and the mourning cry are left.

Huang Taiji was overwhelmed with grief. Since then, the emperor, who has always been in good health, suddenly fell into a coma, suddenly reduced his diet, and often "bowed to disobey peace". On the second day of the tenth month of that year, he said to the kings and their wives and children: "If the mountains are high, they will collapse, if the trees are high, and if they are rich, they will decline. ”

This revealed that Huang Taiji was already uneasy about his old age and decrepitude.

Not long ago, the Qing State suffered several small defeats.

This made Huang Taiji not care about the getting worse and worse, and Pegasus rushed to the front line of Songshan.

In the process of coming, he used a bowl to catch a nosebleed, rode a horse and hurried, galloped under the stars, and came to the front line!

When I arrived at the front line, I was reconciled by the imperial doctor, and my health was better.

But I heard that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were defeated in the hands of one person, plus the death of his quite good general Zierharang, which made Huang Taiji's nosebleed and couldn't help it, and he flowed frantically.

Some of the servants next to him took bowls to catch nosebleeds, and some hurriedly called the imperial doctor.

After a long time, the imperial doctor came, and only then did he stop Huang Taiji's nosebleed.

The imperial doctor took the pulse for a long time, and after prescribing some Chinese medicine, he said: "Your Majesty's dragon body is not as good as before, please cherish your body and work less, otherwise, I am afraid of ......."

"I also know that my health is poor now. But this time it was a general battle between the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it was impossible to work less at this point in time. Huang Taiji, who was out of breath, took a break and began to analyze calmly: "Bring a few more people who participated in the battle of Qingshan Military Fort at that time, and I will ask carefully." ”

......

A day later, more than a dozen of the people who participated in the battle of Qingshan Military Fort were brought to Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji asked about the auspicious scenes in the battle one by one.

Then, he narrowed his eyes and said to the military officer Fan Wencheng on the side: "This He Xuan, if he can see the location of all the generals and kill them accurately, then his eyesight should far exceed that of ordinary people." ”

"He can hunt people more than a hundred steps away, and he can also hunt people apart, which shows that his strength is far beyond ordinary people. ”

"He can shoot more than 100 arrows in a row, which shows that his physical strength is far beyond ordinary people. ”

"He was able to block the rain of arrows with two swords, which showed that his speed was far faster than ordinary people. ”

And this person can jump more than three meters in high jump, and in terms of high jump, he is far more than ordinary people. ”

"If you had to describe it, this person could only be described as a monster. ”

"Can the military advisor figure out how to deal with this person?" said Huang Taiji with a smile.

Fan Wencheng shook a feather fan in his hand: "But this person is not without weaknesses to be found." First, the fact that this man was wounded in the face of a rain of arrows and kept retreating, indicating that he was not invincible. He went head-to-head, and it was impossible for him to match nine thousand people. In Weichen's estimation, he should not be able to defeat a thousand people head-on. Even if it is more than that, it must not exceed 2,000 people. ”

"But this man's ability to shoot from a distance is indispensable. ”

"Yes, so, the order goes down, and from then on, all generals and officers will wear the same clothes as small soldiers. In this way, he didn't know which one to shoot. Huang Taiji nodded and said, "At the same time, I ordered to transfer a force of three thousand people to deal with this person. If this person appears on the battlefield, besiege and kill him. ”

"He's exposed his own limits, his own weaknesses against Zilharang. ”

"As long as there is a weakness, it can be defeated. ”

"Our main enemy is still Hong Chengchou. defeated his army of more than 100,000, and the Ming Dynasty is in the palm of our hands, and we can't jump away. ”

"He Xuan, a puppet, no matter how brave he is, it is impossible to stop the general trend of the torrent of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Huang Taiji held his palms and was full of confidence.
