On the outskirts of the capital, banners blocked out the sun, and the Jurchens and Mongols besieged the city on all sides. Although King Qin's soldiers and horses kept arriving, because their combat power was not as good as that of the border troops, they were all blocked by Hou Jin's soldiers and horses.
The soldiers and horses of King Qin from all walks of life were also very anxious, and one of them was even more shabby. There were more than two thousand people in total, and they wore all kinds of clothes, not to mention the weapons in their hands. Among them were suppressed police officers, and some
There were old soldiers from the inspection department, and even an old man with half a beard. To be able to organize such a group of people and go to the capital to serve as king, this leader was quite capable.
This army came from Daming Prefecture, and the leader of the army was the local magistrate Lu Xiangsheng. Lu Xiangsheng was a strange person. He was from an orthodox imperial examination background, but he loved to practice martial arts and had courage that no man could have deserved. It's ridiculous to say that Lu Xiangsheng had grown up since he was a child.
The big dream is not to pass down the scholarship to the world, but to fight on the battlefield and make achievements.
There was no chance before, but this time the Tatars blocked the pass, Lu Xiangsheng finally seized the opportunity. He immediately organized the young men of Damingfu and rushed to the capital in a hurry. Due to the complex structure of the team and uneven quality, the marching speed was naturally slow.
Many. When they arrived at the capital, the Tatars had already surrounded the capital. King Qin had many troops, but they all had their own agenda, and for a while the Tatars blocked the perimeter.
Lu Xiangsheng's temper was always bad. He couldn't bear it for a long time and decided to launch a night attack to create a gap from the direction of Yongding River.
At night, Lu Xiangsheng ignored the dissuasion of others and resolutely led his troops towards the Yongding River. At this time, it was Azige who was stationed near the Yongding River.
The Yongding River is not a good place. There is nothing to grab, and there is no credit for it. The most you can do is to fight off the rabble. No one from the Houjin Belles wants to come to the Yongding River to enjoy the cool breeze. Azig went from the front line to the Yongding River.
, almost equivalent to being kicked out.
Huang Taiji's meaning was very clear. Since you, Azige, can't work hard, then you can go to the rear to blow the cool breeze. The next thing has nothing to do with you. It can be said that from now on, the benefits of the Hou Jin Kingdom's detention will be
And credit, it has little to do with Azig. However, Azig was not angry, especially after learning the news that the Yunfu cavalry had conquered Qingzhou, he felt even more at ease.
There is no airtight wall in the world. Such an important thing cannot be concealed for long. If our own people don't tell it, why don't the Han people tell it? When the truth is known, all the troops and horses will definitely be in chaos, and their morale will plummet, especially in the Karaqin and Henan provinces.
Horqin's people probably wanted to fly back with wings. Under such circumstances, things could easily go wrong in a hasty retreat.
The generals of the Ming Dynasty were not fools. They would definitely go out of the city to pursue and delay the killing. At that time, the people on the front line would be in trouble. Moreover, Azig had received a private message from Dorgon yesterday, and he was worried.
Another level of planning.
The Ming Dynasty did not want Huang Taiji to quickly withdraw to Liaodong, and Dorgon also did not want Huang Taiji to rush back quickly. During this period, Dorgon had used his skills, either through promises or threats, to win over many powerful people. In short, Huang Taiji rushed back
The slower the speed, the more benefits Dorgon will reap.
Of course, it is possible that the Yunfu cavalry could capture Shenyang and cause irreparable losses to the Kingdom of Jin. But Dorgon felt that this possibility was very small, unless that Tie Mo really risked his own life.
The Yunfu cavalry raging in the northwest of Shenyang would also cause immeasurable damage to the Kingdom of Jin. But Dorgon didn't care, whether it was Haraqin or Horqin, it was Huang Taiji's territory. Dorgon thought very clearly, As long as the Yunfu cavalry don't come to attack Shenyang and let them do whatever they want, it will be Huang Taiji who will feel bad for him anyway.
Azig leaned under a willow tree, drank strong wine, looked at the stars in the sky, and felt much better. Although he was not very close to Dorgon, his younger brother, he had to admire Dorgon's intelligence. If If it weren't for Dorgon's planning, the three brothers would have been suppressed by Huang Taiji long ago.
There were hurried footsteps in the distance, and a soldier with a red flag came closer and said in a hurry: "Master Beile, a group of Han troops just crossed the bridge and will be in contact with us soon. Lord Dutong would like to ask Asking you how to fight!"
"Huh? When did those Han people become so bold? They dared to cross the river at night!" Azige was suddenly surprised. He had fought with those rabble several times, and he had some understanding of the abilities of those people. Unexpectedly , a brave and ruthless man unexpectedly emerged from this group of trash, led the troops across the river, and was not afraid of fighting against the warriors of the Kingdom of Jin?
After holding his chin and thinking for a while, Azig flashed a strange smile in his eyes, "Why fight? Tell Ji Dutong to get out of the way and pretend you didn't see it."
"Ah? Mr. Beile, is this okay? The Great Khan already has objections to us. Let's let this Han army pass..."
"Huh?" Azig's face turned cold, and his eyes pierced the soldier's face like a knife, "You really want to fight? People will die in war, do you understand?"
The soldier shuddered suddenly and did not dare to say another word. He knew that if he continued to speak, Azig would kill someone. He was stupid enough. The relationship between the three brothers of Great Khan and Azig, It's obvious that there are lice on the bald head, so why do you still say those words?
.......
It was late at night, as cold as water, and with the sky full of stars on his back, Lu Xiangsheng moved forward cautiously. What surprised him was that he did not encounter the fierce battle he expected. Instead, the road went smoothly. Except for disturbing a few wild birds, even the Tatars No one was seen.
What is going on? The Tatar defense is so lax?
In this way, Lu Xiangsheng rushed to the foot of Tongzhou City in a daze, then passed through Tongzhou City and came to the most brutal battlefield of Deshengmen outside the capital.
Lu Xiangsheng was a little confused. The journey along the way was so smooth that it was unbelievable. But no matter what, since he came in, he couldn't come in vain. At Yinshi, when he was deeply sleepy, Lu Xiangsheng quietly I touched the outside of a camp.
"Remember, after entering, set fire to create as much chaos as possible. Don't be too eager to fight. After a quarter of an hour, everyone will rush in and join the defenders at Deshengmen!"
"I understand, Lord Prefect, let's do it. We, the men of Daming Mansion, will not embarrass you!"
"good!"
Lu Xiangsheng made a gesture, and the two young men quietly walked over and quickly eliminated the two guards at the door. It must be said that the Jurchens were really too arrogant. They felt that there were people guarding the outside, plus the soldiers and horses of King Qin Most of them were just a mob, and they were not prepared for night attacks at all, so the vigilance was much relaxed at night.
Daming Manfu soldiers and horses entered the camp and immediately set fires everywhere, setting fire to many tents and houses. In early winter, the weather was dry and dry, and they were most afraid of fires. Coupled with the cold wind, the fire quickly swept through half of the camp.
During the fire, Lu Xiangsheng led his people to disperse and cause trouble everywhere, which made the Jurchens miserable. For a while, it was unclear how many soldiers and horses were invading.
Hauge was awakened from his sleep and rushed out angrily, "What's going on? Did that old guy Hou Shilu bring someone to kill him?"
"No...the enemy came from the south." Yue Tuo had a dark face and hurriedly put on his armor as he walked.
"South?" Haug's face twisted and he cursed in a low voice, "You son of a bitch, Azig."
Hauge felt quite unhappy when a mob invaded the camp, "Yue Tuo, go and block the door. You must keep these Chinese dogs here, otherwise, we will become a joke."
Yue Tuo's face didn't look good either. Although there was Azig secretly causing trouble, it was really embarrassing to let a group of mobs turn the camp into this state. If these Han dogs were allowed to stay, they could still regain some face.
When the Jurchens came to their senses, the gap in combat literacy between the two sides became apparent. Under the combined efforts of the Jurchen soldiers and horses to strangle them, Damingfu soldiers and horses suffered more and more losses. Fortunately, all the places where fires should be set were set on fire. Lu Xiangsheng and his men
Start rushing north.
Hauge was excited to fight. After a moment, he saw a middle-aged man in the fire, wielding the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, and he was wearing armor and looked majestic. This man must be the leader. Hauge roared and rushed over with the sword.
In the blink of an eye, the two were fighting together.
At the beginning, Hauge was full of confidence, but after two rounds of fighting, he realized that he had underestimated the man in front of him. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword was as heavy as a stone, and each move seemed clumsy, but it was deadly.
Lu Xiangsheng had no intention of fighting with Hauge. Seeing the opportunity, he struck down hard with the Green Dragon Sword, slashing Hauge back several steps. Hauge looked furious, but Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said: "Haha, Tatar."
, I’m going to go, next time we meet, I will definitely take your head!”
"You... Han Chinese, tell me your name..."
"Remember, your grandfather's name is Lu Xiangsheng!"
Lu Xiangsheng put aside these words, drew his long sword backwards, turned over and mounted a fast horse, and rushed towards the north. At this time, most of the remaining soldiers of Daming Mansion had already reached the periphery. What made Lu Xiangsheng even more happy was that Hou Shilu saw Tatar
There was a fire in Zi's camp, so he also sent people to come. The two sides joined forces and slowly retreated to Deshengmen. Hauge, who had suffered a heavy loss, was afraid of the combat power of Xuanfu's elite soldiers and did not dare to continue the pursuit.
.......
Outside Desheng Gate, with the light of a torch, Hou Shilu could clearly see the appearance of the person coming. After careful inspection, he found that he was still an acquaintance.
"Master Lu, it's you!"
"Haha, General Hou, how are you? I'm no worse than you at killing Tatars!" Lu Xiangsheng smiled boldly and raised his hand towards Hou Shilu.
Hou Shilu shook his head and smiled bitterly. Crazy Lu, what kind of imperial examination did he take? He should take the first prize in martial arts. This was the first time I saw a civil servant leading troops to charge into battle, but this guy was so tough.
Things in the world are so mysterious. Some people have double happiness, and some people have misfortune. Hou Shilu not only welcomed Lu Xiangsheng, but also got good news.
Lu Xiangsheng devoured the noodles. When he saw Hou Shilu's face beaming with joy, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Mr. Hou, what's the good news?"
"Yes, His Majesty just sent someone to deliver the news. Tie Shouwei has led an army of 20,000 to break through Qingzhou City and send troops to Horqin. Now, it is the Tatars' turn to have a headache. My Ming Dynasty is not for them to come and leave whenever they want.
You can walk!"
"Oh, is this happening? Mr. Hou, is this person you are talking about Yun Mansion guard Tie Mo?"
"Exactly this person!"
On the other side, Huang Taiji's face seemed to be covered with frost. At this time, he had no intention of pursuing Azig's fault, let alone being angry with Hauge because the camp was attacked.
Not long ago, the news that the Han invaded Qingzhou was spread, and the news spread quickly. At this time, all the soldiers and horses knew the news. Now it was a big commotion. Wu Liangha was the most anxious. First
He stood up and wanted to go back. It’s not Wu Liangha’s fault. When the Han invaded Qingzhou, the Karaqin tribe must have suffered. If they didn’t go back, who knows how the Karaqin tribe would be destroyed by the Han? What’s more terrible is that,
Will Lin Dan Khan let go of this opportunity to reap benefits?
Wu Liangha had to rush back. He was afraid that if he didn't go back, all the beauties and cattle and sheep in Haraqin would be robbed by the Han people and Lin Dan Khan.
Horqin's Burgatu followed closely behind. Qingzhou City had already fallen. Can Horqin escape? It was related to his own personal interests, so he couldn't care less about what Huang Taiji thought.
In just half a day, many tribes came to ask for orders to go home. When the matter reached this level, Huang Taiji had no other solution. Even if he did not go back, the morale of all the tribes was low and the soldiers had no fighting spirit. It would be very dangerous to stay. Withdraw the troops.
, was imminent, so how to withdraw the troops became the most troublesome thing.
At this time, no one would be happy to send anyone to block the situation. If I had known about today's situation, I would not have transferred Azige to the Yongding River.
Huang Taiji wanted to withdraw, but the Ming army launched an active attack instead. The Ming army's intention was obvious, which was to delay the retreat of the Jin Dynasty's ministries.
On November 24, the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji, with Hauge, Yue Tuo, and Mang Gurtai as his rear troops, intercepted the Ming Dynasty soldiers and horses along the canal. Yue Tuo, Hauge and others led the two yellow flags and the red flag elite
The fierce battle lasted for a day, and the Ming army failed to break through the canal defense line.
On November 25, Hauge and others, who had completed their rear mission, retreated, and this retreat also became a road of death. In order to stop the pursuit of the Ming army, Hauge and others suffered heavy losses in their troops.
, and now that they are retreating, it gives the Ming army an opportunity to chase after them.
On that day, Xuanfu's counselor Li Jiasheng, Datong's counselor general Lou Daji, and Liaodong's commander-in-chief Zu Dashou and He Kegang led the Xuanfu cavalry and Guanning cavalry, a total of more than 20,000 people, to pursue them all the way to the north of Jizhou.
In this battle, the Ming army suffered more than 6,000 casualties, but the other side did not get any benefits. The two yellow flags and the red flags suffered more than 4,000 casualties, especially the two yellow flags, where almost all the elite troops were lost.
On November 26, the Ming army pursued and recaptured Sanhe, Xianghe, Jizhou, Zunhua and other places. At this point, Huang Taiji's long-planned seclusion operation was completely shattered.
This time, not only was the detention period much shorter than in history, but due to the hasty retreat, half of the supplies along the way were intercepted by the Ming army.
