Wang Siyi was right next to Zuo Mengeng and noticed something strange about him.
Only then did Zuo Mengeng open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of turbid blood. The depression in his chest and abdomen was slightly relieved.
"How can the blood flowing from your body compare to the blood flowing from your heart?"
The others were silent and watched Hou Jin's army go away. But the wailing sounds of the people still seemed to echo in their ears, and they may never dissipate in this life.
Huang Zongxi turned around suddenly.
"Zhongheng, let's build a new world."
Zuo Mengeng raised his sleeve and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Aren't we doing it?"
Mao Yuanyi calmed down somewhat, got back on his horse, and said in a low voice: "Count me in. Sooner or later, I will personally chop off the heads of Chongzhen and Huang Taiji."
This person has been greatly stimulated and has obviously gone into an extreme alley.
But Zuo Mengeng understood his feelings very well, so why didn't he himself feel the same way?
Anyone who saw the scene of tens of thousands of Han people being kidnapped in Dongjiakou could no longer maintain a normal mind. He felt that the world was so heavy that he couldn't breathe, and that he had to punch a big hole in the sky.
OK.
"Qianza, shall we return?"
Zuo Rong was very lonely.
In the end, the rear camp missed the opportunity to fight and could only watch Huang Taiji calmly withdraw, which made him very ashamed.
No conscientious soldier would ever forgive himself if he saw the people being kidnapped by bandits in front of him.
Zuo Mengeng shook his head and had already made up his mind.
"There is still a big battle waiting for us later."
He remembered that the whole Jisi Revolution was completely over and would not take place until May.
Huang Taiji's army was not captured, but he did not want to let go of other post-Jin soldiers.
Next, we need to take a closer look to see who is the unlucky guy he is targeting.
Everyone returned and gathered together with the large army in the ravine north of Qian'an.
After returning from Dongjiakou, Mao Yuanyi, Huang Zongxi, Zuo Rong, Zuo Hua and others obviously underwent drastic changes.
They drilled the army with greater intensity, which led to a wave of military training throughout the army.
Huang Zongxi even used his eloquence to tell the entire army what he saw in Dongjiakou.
These soldiers who had missed the opportunity were filled with grief and anger when they heard the tragic situation, and finally understood the purpose of the officers' redoubled training.
In this unknown ravine, the rear camp continued to hone its technical and tactical skills.
On the battlefield, with Huang Taiji's withdrawal, there was a strange calm for a long time.
The entire Ming Dynasty has long been in turmoil, and every tree and plant is in a state of war.
They couldn't tell whether Huang Taiji had really withdrawn his troops, or whether he was making a false move and was up to some conspiracy.
So all Ming armies had to huddle in the city and wait for the situation to become clear.
In the Jisi Incident in later generations, what Hou Jin did was basically characterized as a military adventure and robbery. But judging from the actual situation, Huang Taiji was obviously planning a big game.
If it was just looting, then when he returned, all the troops of Hou Jin should have withdrawn together. But it is obvious that Hou Jin still had strong military strength in various parts of Gyeonggi at this time.
Abatai, Jirhalang, Sahalian, Sony, Ning Wanwo were stationed in Yongping, Bao Chengxian was stationed in Qian'an, Turg, Namutai was stationed in Luanzhou, and Chakara was stationed in Zunhua.
What better reflects Huang Taiji's huge ambition is the edict he gave to his subordinates before leaving.
[The people of Emperor Ming, if God has given them to me, they will be my people. If I invade my people, the country they have surrendered will no longer be mine. The people of other countries will never come back. .The ministers of Baylor and others who are guarding the city should give strict orders to our sergeants...]
Obviously, Huang Taiji regarded this invasion as a contest with the Ming Dynasty to win the hearts of the people.
Recalling that when he attacked Shanhaiguan, he also ordered farmers from all over the country to take advantage of the beginning of spring to cultivate, and even gave farmers cattle for farming, which shows that he was very ambitious.
What's more, since the invasion this time, many people from various places have surrendered.
Huang Taiji also did not want to leave and leave those who surrendered with the impression of being arbitrarily abandoned, which would increase the difficulty of joining the invaders again in the future.
From this point of view, Huang Taiji has no idea how superior he is to the US military.
The people he left behind to guard the occupied areas could never be defended. However, they could use this method to give those who surrendered an illusion.
Dad didn't abandon us. Dad fought bloody battles for us. Dads just didn't fight.
On March 11, the situation between the enemy and ourselves underwent a fundamental change.
Huang Taiji dispatched Amin and Shuotuo from Shenyang to replace Abatai, Jierhalang and others to direct the Gyeonggi operations.
This approach is obviously to deal with Amin.
Of course Amin knew, but there was nothing he could do.
Huang Taiji returned to the army victoriously, making all the ministries make a lot of money, and his reputation has reached its peak.
Under such circumstances, he, one of the four Baylors, has lost the ability to compete.
If he dares to disobey orders, all the Xianglan Banners in his headquarters will betray him.
The Ming army should also have received information about Huang Taiji's return to Shenyang, and Zu Dashou began to organize an offensive.
On the eleventh day, Zu Dashou left Shanhaiguan and entered Funing, and then attacked Yongcheng.
Although it was not captured, it was obvious that Hou Jin's military strength was not as strong as before, which also made the various departments of the Ming army much more courageous.
On March 26, after Amin arrived in Zunhua, he also knew that his situation was critical. Unwilling to surrender, he decided to use actual military exploits to get out of trouble.
So on the next day, Amin took Jierhalang, Shuotuo and others to march westward, hoping to win a big victory.
As a result, they encountered Cao Wenzhao's troops at Niumen and Shuimen, and then Ma Shilong also arrived.
After a great battle, Amin was driven back to Zunhua, and the Ming army also approached the city of Zunhua.
Zuo Liangyu was under Cao Wenzhao's command, and he made great contributions in this battle.
Later, Hou Jin attacked the Fengrun area, but was repulsed by You Shilu.
It can be said that the Jin Dynasty never won any battles throughout March. Instead, it was pressed hard by the Ming army from all sides, and its space for movement became smaller and smaller.
But for the Ming Dynasty, there was nothing to be happy about in March.
Bad news comes from the west.
In February, when Shanxi soldiers and horses were marching to the capital, Lao Huihui, Ba Jingang, Ren Zishun, Shangtianhou and other troops crossed the Yellow River, captured Puzhou, and officially entered Shanxi.
Chongzhen was shocked and asked Geng Ruxi and Zhang Honggong, who were in Liangxiang, to return to his army.
But Geng Ruqi wrote a letter to resign.
During the battle in Liangxiang, Geng Ruchi was seriously injured and injured in many places. He was disabled and unable to hold office.
Chongzhen had no choice but to agree and at the same time changed the governor of Shanxi to deal with the peasant army in northern Shaanxi.
How did he know that Geng Ruqi was already disheartened and did not want to work for the Zhu family dynasty anymore.
Geng Ruqi, who had no official position and was light-hearted, took Geng Zhangguang back to Linqing leisurely.
In April, the Ming army began a massive counterattack.
Sun Chengzong personally came to the front line to command and gathered all the troops to attack Luanzhou.
Later Jin's guards in Luanzhou were Turge, Namutai and Tanggudai.
These three men were very brave, and they defended the city for four days. However, the disparity in the strength of the two sides was too great, so Sun Chengzong brought in cannons and destroyed the city wall.
Turg saw that he had no choice but to lead his army to break out.
It happened that it rained heavily and was besieged by the Ming army. The Jin army fell into chaos and killed more than 400 people.
Turg retreated all the way to Yongping, but frightened Amin.
At this time, there were more than 5,000 Jin troops in the pass, and they were scattered in various places. Amin knew that even if all the troops were gathered together, it would be impossible to defeat the Ming army, so he decided to retreat.
As Huang Taiji's brother-in-law, Turge knew that if he went back like this, he would definitely be punished. He dissuaded Amin and said: We have defended Luanzhou for four days. As long as everyone works together, we will definitely be able to defend Yongping.
Amin didn't listen at all, for fear of dying in the Ming Dynasty.
Moreover, he was lucky, thinking that as one of the four Baylors, he would only be scolded by Huang Taiji after returning home.
So he gave an order to Chakara of Zunhua to come and join him and prepare to flee.
Amin had no idea that this time he abandoned the city and fled, which finally gave Huang Taiji a chance. Although he did not kill him, he completely deprived him of his power and imprisoned him until his death.
Zuo Mengeng, who has been hiding in the mountains, is always paying attention to the changes in the war situation.
When Chakara of Zunhua fled to Yongping, he was keenly aware that the final battle was coming.
"Amin didn't have the courage of Huang Taiji, and the soldiers and horses in Shanhaiguan were not afraid of him, so he didn't dare to go to Dongjiakou at all. So the only place for him to escape was here."
With all the generals watching, Zuo Mengeng's hand focused on one place.
The bright moon shines on the clear water, and the cold wind blows through the pass.
