At midnight.

The heavy snow has stopped for days.

No wind, dry and cold.

The ground is frozen and the weather is cold.

A bright moon hangs in the sky.

Under the cold night sky is Shanhaiguan standing between two cliffs.

The sky and the earth are magnificent.

Accompanied by a "creaking" sound of the wooden shaft rotating.

The gate of Shanhaiguan slowly opened.

A large army of infantry and cavalry rushed out of the gate, passed through the bright white moonlight, and ran towards the distance.

Among the cavalry, there was a female general who was particularly eye-catching, and it was Jia Yuanchun who was riding a maroon horse.

According to the scheduled plan, tonight she led Chen Daguang and Hu Shouren, led 2,000 cavalry and 8,000 infantry, quietly out of the city for 20 miles to ambush, and waited for tomorrow to encircle the Jin army behind.

The next day, sunny.

The sun shines in the snow. Looking around, it is a vast area, boundless, and a bit dazzling.

Lou Nan led 6,000 cavalrymen, doubled their flags, pretended to be tens of thousands of cavalry, and rushed towards the Jin army camp fifteen miles away.

Behind this cavalry, two armies of infantry and cavalry came out one after another, lying ambushed in the valley of Kanto and on the hillside of Kanto.

Two hours later, the sound of horse hooves went back, like thunder rolling across the earth.

Lou Nan led 6,000 cavalrymen, pretended to be defeated, and rushed all the way to Shanhaiguan.

"The whole army obeys the order, and the rear team becomes a forward and turn around and attack!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the cavalrymen of the Great Zhou had struggled for a few times, ignored his orders and continued to flee to the gate of Shanhaiguan.

No one wants to confront the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry.

Compared with the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry of the Great Zhou, the combat power is far different.

Lou Nan was stunned.

He had no idea that his subordinates would dare to disobey military orders.

Feng Ziying stood at the close, not knowing what was happening below.

"fire!"

With his order, the thirty-nine artillery closed fired at the same time.

Twenty of them are starry cannons, ten are Franco cannons, and nine are Red Cannons.

There are three types of shells: shotgun, solid shell, and flowering shell.

Although the power is not very great, the shells all fell into the horses of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry.

Fortunately, Lou Nan's 6,000 cavalry did not turn around, otherwise they would have been affected by these shells.

The solid bullet broke the legs of several horses, and the starry cannons bloomed in the herd like large fireworks, only to scare people and horses. The shrapnel of the Furang machine cannon exploded injured dozens of horses, and the Red Barbarian cannon killed several Eight Banners cavalry in the rear team. Overall, this round of cannon did not cause huge casualties to the Eight Banners army, but only a little chaos occurred.

At this moment, there were bursts of shouts of killing sounds sounded from the valleys of Kanto and the hillsides of Kansai.

Although the shouts were shocking, the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were unwilling to rush to the front.

Whenever a soldier rushes to the front row, he will deliberately slow down and let the people following him rush to the front of him.

From a distance, the Great Zhou army that was rushing overwhelmed on both sides was like the waves on the shore. When it rushed over, it would continue to roll back.

"Not good! There is an ambush!" Dorgon exclaimed in surprise when he saw this.

In order to prevent the Great Zhou from leading snakes out of the cave, he only brought 10,000 cavalry out of the camp to meet Lou Nan's six thousand cavalry, leaving Duoduo to lead the remaining 10,000 cavalry to guard the camp, guarding against the Zhou army's lure out of the mountain and attacking the camp.

However, unexpectedly, Zhou Jun really set up an ambush.

Although he was suddenly used, Dorgon had experienced many battles and was both civil and military. His ten thousand cavalry were all veterans of a hundred battles, and he did not fall into chaos.

As the saying goes, the Jurchens are not satisfied with ten thousand, and they are invincible.

Dorgon firmly believed that with these ten thousand cavalry, he was enough to repel the ambush and defeat the Zhou army.

But at this moment, there was another shout of killing from behind his team.

Dorgon rode his horse up to a small hillside next to him and looked back. He saw a large number of Zhou troops appearing behind him, hiding over.

"Oh no! The Zhou army actually surrounded everyone!"

Although the Zhou army was amazing, their movements were surprisingly slow.

Not only the infantry, but also the cavalry were slow, and they were walking slowly one by one, without any intention of rushing to charge.

"Don't panic! Zhou army is as timid as a mouse. Now the back team turns into the front team and follow me out of the encirclement!" Dorgon gave an order.

The Eight Banners Cavalry, who were already a little panicked, gradually calmed down, waved their sabers, turned around and ran wildly, and rushed towards the Zhou army behind.

This Zhou army was the two thousand cavalry and eight thousand infantry led by Jia Yuanchun himself.

Although there are tens of thousands of people, infantry are naturally at a disadvantage when facing cavalry.

As soon as the two sides contacted each other, Zhou Jun only persisted for less than half a cup of tea and collapsed across the board.

Fortunately, the other three Zhou troops had surrounded him and fought with the Jin army. Otherwise, the ten thousand Zhou troops led by Jia Yuanchun would not have been able to hold on for a moment.

"Support it, don't retreat!" Jia Yuanchun shouted sternly, but her shouts were drowned in the sound of weapons colliding, the sound of killing and howling.

Chen Daguang and Hu Shouren also roared and stopped the deserter.

But they could not stop the Zhou army from fleeing.

Dorgon led more than a dozen brave subordinates to kill the Zhou army and rushed straight to the central army's flag.

Chen Daguang said anxiously:

"Jia Jianjun, Dorgon is here to fight, retreat quickly!"

Jia Yuanchun looked sad, his eyes were frightened, and he said with a stern voice:

"withdraw!"

Chen Daguang and Hu Shouren led more than 20 cavalrymen to guard Jia Yuanchun and flee westward.

They wanted to bypass the battlefield where they were fighting and return to Shanhaiguan.

But Dorgon was very skilled in riding and soon caught up.

Following closely behind were more than a dozen Eight Banners Cavalry.

They were all wearing white helmets and white armor, and they should be either the white flag or the white flag inlaid.

Since Dorgon was the owner of the Inlaid White Banner, these cavalry should all belong to the Inlaid White Banner.

One of the soldiers wanted to bend their bows and take arrows, but Dorgon scolded him:

"Everyone obeys the order and is not allowed to shoot the female general in front, otherwise military law will deal with it!"

"Yeah!" The soldiers took the order one after another.

"Swoosh-swoosh-swoosh-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo-swoo

Accompanied by several sounds of breaking through the air, the cavalrymen set their bows and shot arrows.

Arrows flew out, and several Great Zhou cavalry guarding Jia Yuanchun were successively caught and dropped.

The cavalry of the Great Zhou also turned around and bent their bows and shot archers.

But their archery skills were unfamiliar and only shot two cavalrymen invaded the white flag, and the rest of the arrows were all gone.

Not long after, only Chen Daguang and Hu Shouren were left beside Jia Yuanchun.

However, Dorgon and more than a dozen cavalrymen with the Inlaid White Flag were getting closer and closer.

......

At the same time, in Rongguo Mansion in Shenjing City.

Zhuque led more than 800 Jinyiwei to fight and retreat while fighting, but was forced into the Xijiao Gate of Rong Mansion by tens of thousands of bandits.

The bandits took the opportunity to invade Rongguo Mansion.

The Jinyiwei continued to lose personnel, but the bandits fought more and more.

It turned out that several other bandits nearby came to hear the news and wanted to take the opportunity to rob Rongguo Mansion.

Hearing the shouts of killing outside, the sound of weapons colliding and howling, Lin Daiyu knew that another thief broke in, and hurriedly rushed out of Rongqingtang with a long sword in his hand.

When she saw the bandits rushing like a flood, she was shocked.

The more than 800 Jinyiwei were simply a mantis chariot in front of more than 10,000 bandits, and they could not stop them.

Lin Daiyu hurried back to Rongqingtang and said to Jia Mu and Dai Quan:

"Old ancestor, adoptive father, the thief is in great power and the situation is critical. You can escape with me!"
