After seeing the Qing army ambush, Ainengqi immediately gathered two other cavalry groups.

One hundred of them dismounted and controlled the fifty tiger squat cannons they carried. Ai Nengqi and a thousand cavalrymen, with fifty tiger squat cannons as the core, cruising on both sides, slowly towards the Qing cavalry

Approaching.

Just now, the Qing barbarians fought against Li Yuanyin, with nearly 400 casualties, and now only more than 2,600 people remain.

Although the number of people still has the upper hand, Daishan couldn't help but frown.

The combat effectiveness of these more than a thousand Ming army cavalry was far higher than his estimate. If possible, he hoped that the Ming army would retreat.

Unexpectedly, when the number of people was at a significant disadvantage, the Ming army not only did not retreat, but instead had the intention of fighting with them.

Judging from the war losses just now, Dai Shan knew very well that even if they could annihilate more than 1,000 Ming army, the remaining more than 2,000 Eight Banners Manchus would probably have suffered heavy casualties.

There were only a few troops escorting them back this time. If they lost another two thousand cavalry, it was unknown whether they could pass through the grassland smoothly.

Thinking of this, Dai Shanyong ordered: "Retreat!"

withdraw?

Many Eight Banners Army, including Mazhan, were stunned when they heard the sound.

But Daishan had already turned his horse's head first and ran towards the northwest. The rest came to their senses and could only catch a horse and follow.

Dai Shan's order also made Ai Nengqi and Li Yuanyin confused.

The cavalry led by Ainengqi was originally within 200 steps of the Qing army, and at that time they could have the tiger squat cannons fired a spike to bombard the Qing army. Unexpectedly, the Qing army suddenly fled when the number of Qing army was obviously dominant.

Ainengqi did not order a pursuit.

He was ambushed by the Qing captain just now, which made him scared - fortunately, Li Yuanyin's team rushed out and was not eaten by the Qing captains. Otherwise, even if he could win, he would definitely be

A miserable victory.

If the Qing cavalry moved fully to avoid the large number of casualties caused by tiger squatting cannons, it would be possible to annihilate more than a thousand of them.

Besides, they were rushing to chase after the horse, and they were exhausted, and they needed to bring fifty tiger squat cannons. It was difficult to catch up with the Qing cavalry.

After the reunion, Li Yuanyin first reported the casualties, and then asked: "General Ai, what should we do now?"

"What do you think you should do?" Ainengqi asked his subordinates habitually.

"Uh," Li Yuanyin was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Since the Qing Lu sent three thousand cavalry to ambush us, it means that the large team going to Miyun must have important Qing Lu members.

But we don’t know how many soldiers and horses this Qing army has. Even if we only have these two or three thousand eight banner troops, it is difficult for us to deal with.

Bei Zhi’s suggestion is to send someone to the capital to ask for help from Huang Junmen, and be careful to be hugged behind this Qing army, looking for opportunities to harass or attack at night."

"Night attack?" Ainengqi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then nodded, "Just do what you said!"

Afterwards, Ainengqi and several whistle cavalry went to the capital, leaving dozens of people to take care of the wounded soldiers and clean up the battlefield.

He and Li Yuanyin took the remaining 1,300 cavalry and rushed toward Miyun carefully.

It is said that it is a hurry, but the speed is actually much slower than before, because they always have to be careful to guard against the Qinglu cavalry again...

Dai Shan left many whistle cavalry along the way, and then he led the remaining two thousand Eight Banners Army to catch up with the large team.

Seeing that the team was missing nearly 500 people, and a small number of those who came back were injured, Dorgon frowned and asked, "Does so many soldiers have been lost? Have you destroyed all the Ming cavalry?"

Dai Shan's face turned slightly red and he shook his head.

"No?!" Dorgon couldn't help but raise his tone, "You lost nearly five hundred soldiers and horses, but you didn't even get rid of more than a thousand Ming cavalry?"

Dai Shan frowned and said, "Although I failed to annihilate the Ming cavalry, they also lost four or five hundred people, and they dared not pursue us voluntarily anymore.

If the Regent is not satisfied with this, he can lead his troops to deal with the Ming cavalry. They not only have grenades and muskets that were sent off on horseback, but also fifty tiger squatting cannons.

The Regent can take all the remaining troops and horses to see if he can take advantage of this Ming cavalry!"

Hearing Dai Shan's words, Dorgon calmed down instead.

He was not good at leading troops to fight—if the Ming army's cavalry equipment was as good as Dai Shan said, Dai Shan used one-to-one damage to make the Ming army dare not pursue it without any more arrogantly. It would be acceptable.

But Dorgon was not willing to miss the opportunity to attack Daishan, and said coldly: "Three thousand cavalry went to ambush one thousand five hundred cavalry, but fought one for one. You can't push the mistake of this battle.

!”

Dai Shan said: "The Regent punishes him as much as he likes. He can even take me to behead him and show him the public."

Dai Shan is so stupid.

He knew very well that Dorgon had no effective generals at hand, otherwise he would not have been allowed to lead troops. Not only did he grow old, he was also the target of suppression by Huang Taiji, Dorgon and other younger brothers. The normal situation is basically

It is impossible for him to lead troops to achieve military merits.

The Qing Dynasty has reached this point, how could Dorgon kill Dai Shan? Hearing this, he just snorted coldly and waved his sleeves to leave.

At night that day, although I knew that the Ming cavalry was still hanging behind, the Qingting team had to stop and camp - a mixed military and civilian team of 20,000 to 30,000 were completely unable to rush to the road at night.

In order to avoid being attacked by the Ming army at night, the Qing army was on high alert and even five hundred horses cruised around the campsite.

However, the night was safe and the Ming army did not do anything.

After another day, the large team where Qingting was located was approaching the Gubeikou Great Wall, which was the Miyun Guard and Chaohe Station of the Ming Dynasty.

When they arrived here, the Qingting troops did not relax their vigilance.

Although theoretically speaking, since the ninth year of Tiancong (1635), Huang Taiji conquered the Chahar tribes, all Mongolian tribes in the south of the desert have surrendered.

In the second year, he and the Manchu and Han nobles elected Huang Taiji as the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and the tribes were officially incorporated into the Qing Dynasty. Even some Mongolian (Khalkha) and some Mongolian (Verat) tribes in the northern desert and Qinghai were also

He sent an envoy to pay tribute to Huangtaiji.

But in fact, the Mongolian tribes in southern desert are still highly autonomous.

When the Eight Banners Army was strong, there were rebellions from all the Mongolian tribes in the south of the desert, not to mention that the Eight Banners Army's power has been destroyed now.

These Mongolian tribes have been oppressed by the Qing Dynasty in the past ten years and are already poor. Now, if they know that so many nobles in the Qing court were only escorted back to Liaodong by more than 10,000 troops with worrying combat power, they also carried a large amount of gold and silver.

Wealth, you may not be united and robbed.

Therefore, now Dorgon and others not only dare not recruit troops from the Mongolian tribes in the south of the desert to protect them, but instead try their best to conceal the news that they passed through the Mongolian tribes in the eastern part.

After leaving Longtan, he was about to enter the wolf's nest. Dorgon, Dai Shan and others were certainly not willing to relax their vigilance...

It's the night, the ugly moment is the beginning.

Ainengqi and Li Yuanyin stood on the same mountain, looking out at the outskirts of the Qinglu camp with infrared telescopes, and frowned.

"I didn't expect that the Qing barbarians were about to leave the Great Wall. They were still so vigilant. It's hard for us to do it." Ainengqi said in contemplation.

Although Ainengqi is young and has a brave combat style, he has suffered a loss when he attacked Chengdu for the vanguard in Sichuan and has been more careful every time he leads the army alone.

What's more, through the infrared telescope, he could clearly see that the Qing Lu not only had many open and secret whistles arranged outside the Qing Lu, but also four or five hundred cavalrymen divided into two strands and patrolled around them slowly.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for them to quietly approach the Qinglu camp to launch an attack.

Li Yuanyin found that the Qing emperors were very cautious and was very unwilling to accept it.

He and Ainengqi both thought that if they left the Great Wall, the Qing emperor would receive help from the Mongolian tribes, and they might even recruit Mongolian cavalry to escort them, which would be even more difficult for them to get benefits.

Therefore, tonight they regarded it as their last chance to retain this Qing army.

After thinking about it, Li Yuanyin said: "General, we have tiger squat cannons, grenades, and three hand-held searchlights that we haven't used very much.

As long as you can get two or three hundred steps closer to the Qinglu camp, you will have the opportunity to launch an attack, causing chaos in the Qinglu camp.

However, from our observations over the past two days, there are probably nearly 10,000 troops in this Qing army. If we don’t do it well, we may be trapped in it.”

If it were under Zhang Xianzhong's command, Ai Nengqi would have ordered such a thing without hesitation.

But after following Zhu Mai for so long, Ai Nengqi's thoughts have also changed a lot.

He said, "That means we want to keep these Qing captives with our lives, right?"

Li Yuanyin nodded.

Ainengqi sighed, "Since the lives of the brothers in the army are involved, please ask them what they think."
