Paper Maker: This is the end of the Ming Dynasty in Liaozhai

Chapter 197 Both sides suffer, Daming wins!
"Governor, Jiannu's offensive is very fierce, almost desperate. I'm afraid Malanyuguan won't last long."

Luo Qing shook his head, Jurchens have no problem whether they are riding, shooting or fighting on foot. Mounted horses are cavalry, dismounted are infantry, and their siege capabilities are not too weak. Although they don't have siege equipment, the Jurchens don't care about casualties at all. Well, there are few defenders at Malanyuguan, and it is very difficult to hold on under the Jurchen's offensive that doesn't care about casualties.

"Order Guo Qin to tell everyone on his side to rush on their way. If they can reach Malanyu Pass within an hour, they will be rewarded ten taels of silver!"

After thinking for a while, Yuan Chonghuan gritted his teeth and said, he can't catch up here, he is still seventy or eighty miles away from Malanyuguan, and he will arrive tomorrow no matter how soon, when they arrive, everything will be too late .

But now Guo Qin is less than [-] miles away from Malanyuguan. If he marches desperately, he should be able to catch up. Although the price of ten taels of silver per person is not small, if all the Jurchens can be wiped out , then the price is worth it.

"Yes."

Luo Qing nodded in response.

...

On Malanyu Pass.

The brutal city wall battle is in full swing. Countless corpses of soldiers are piled up in the narrow passages on the city wall. There are soldiers from the Ming army and some from the Houjin army. There is a steady stream of post-golden soldiers climbing up along the claw hook.

On the other side, Ming army masters such as Zhao Liaojiao and Deng Kui fought together with many Jurchen masters. The entire wall has been destroyed. As a martial arts practitioner, Zhao Lediao still held back Daishan abruptly with his first-class level, although the price he paid was not small.

"Zhao Lijiao, Ben Baylor will give you a way to survive, get out of Malanyuguan, Ben Baylor will let you take someone away!"

Looking at the gradually setting sun, Dai Shan gritted his teeth and said, these Ming troops are more difficult than he imagined. They have already lost nearly [-]% of their battles, but they are still fighting to the death. If it gets dark, the Ming troops have the advantage of the city wall. situation will be worse.

"Daishan, since you have chosen to enter the customs, you can stay here with peace of mind!"

Hearing this, a grim smile appeared on Zhao Ratejiao's face, combined with the blood on his face, mutilated left arm, and scars all over his body, he looked even more ferocious.

"kill!"

Daishan yelled again: "If you don't break through, you can't retreat. Those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"

Zhao Lijiao also roared angrily: "Block these Jiannu, the reinforcements are more than ten miles away, and when the reinforcements arrive, these Jiannu will die."

The next moment, the two turned into two afterimages and collided again. Zhao Ratejiao was holding a knife in one hand. Although he was seriously injured, Zhao Ratejiao's aura was even more fierce, and he forced Daishan back a few steps with the knife , and then the two fought into a group again.

...

On the other side, on Man Gui and Hou Shilu's battlefield, although Yu Xiao restrained Dorgon and the others, the situation on the battlefield was still tilted towards the Jurchen side, and the cavalry under Man Gui and Hou Shilu's command had begun to flee.

"retreat!"

Seeing this, Man Gui could only roar loudly and retreat. This level has reached the limit, and he can fight again without collapsing. Once it completely collapses, it is really powerless.

When Man Gui and Hou Shilu led the troops to withdraw, Li Hongsheng and Yu Xiao followed closely behind and left the battlefield.

"Don't chase, hurry to Malanyuguan."

Seeing that the three of Dorgon wanted to chase again, Huang Taiji quickly stopped him: "The other Ming troops are coming after us."

It is not difficult to completely defeat the cavalry under the command of Man Gui and Hou Shilu, but it will take a lot of time. Once the other Ming troops rush to Malanyu Pass first and completely block the pass, they can only find other passes. The loss of the city is in vain.

Hearing Huang Taiji's voice, the three of Dorgon gave up the idea of ​​pursuing and led the troops towards Malanyuguan.

.........

city ​​wall.

Zhao Shujiao's face was already showing fatigue. Although the physical strength of a horizontal martial arts practitioner is long, he is weaker than Dai Shan himself. It is already the limit to be able to resist to this level.

On the other side, Daishan's complexion was not good either. Looking at Zhao Ratejiao who was still fighting high, Daishan's heart sank. The demon power in his body was running out. Once the demon power was exhausted, he would have to serve as Zhao Ratejiao. Butchered.

Thinking of this, Daishan tightened his grip on the weapon, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, the demon power in his body began to boil continuously, the degree of demonization of the whole person became more obvious, and a snake tail grew out behind him.

Flicking the tail of the snake, Daishan knew very well that he could not continue to procrastinate. If he could not take this place before dark, other Ming troops would come.

At this moment, a large cloud of dust appeared in the distant sky, and at the same time there was the sound of horseshoes, and the banner representing Huang Taiji was very conspicuous in the wind.

Seeing the flag, Daishan was overjoyed instantly, and his demonic power relaxed a bit, but the next moment, Zhao Liaojiao's long knife struck again.

"Zhao rate teacher, are you crazy?"

Seeing that Zhao Lijiao is still entangled, Dai Shan said coldly: "The sweat has arrived, if you continue to entangle, you will only have a dead end!"

"It also depends on who is faster!"

Zhao Lijiao said calmly, his hands still kept moving, each knife was as fast as a knife, and Daishan was so suppressed that he had almost no strength to fight back.

Hearing Zhao Ratejiao's words, Dai Shan's expression changed. After forcing Zhao Ratejiao back with a single move with all his strength, he turned his head and looked to the other side. The Ming army was approaching at a very fast speed. Twenty thousand soldiers and horses in Huacheng.

This distraction, Zhao Lengjiao's long sword struck again, hitting Daishan's vital point. For a while, Daishan could only resist with all his strength.

...

In just a moment, thousands of cavalry led by Huang Taiji arrived at the pass, and on the other side, the Ming army of the brigade also slowly approached the pass from another road.

"Khan, do you want to defeat these Ming troops first?"

Looking at the Ming army coming from another way, Dorgon frowned. If they don't defeat them, when these people block the pass, Yue Tuo will not be able to escape from the pass.

"Seize Guancheng first!"

After pondering for a while, Huang Taiji gritted his teeth. Although the opponent is advancing, the pass is already a mountainous area, and there is no place for the cavalry to form formation. It is not impossible to attack by force, but it will definitely take a lot of time. It is better to attack first In Xiaguan City, there is no chance to defeat this Ming army.

...

the other side.

On the city wall, Deng Kui took a look at the Jurchen cavalry coming towards this side, repelled the opponent with one move, and came to the side of Zhao Ratejiao, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhao, retreat first, you can't stop it!" Already!"

Now they are unable to block Daishan's side. If Huang Taiji joins in again, they will undoubtedly lose, and Guancheng will also fall into the hands of the Jurchen. Lanyuguan Road.

Hearing Deng Kui's words, Zhao Lediao glanced at the other Ming army masters on the city wall. There were more than a hundred of them before, but now they are less than half.

"withdraw!"

Zhao Lijiao gritted his teeth and said, they have tried their best, and it is useless to stick to it.

"withdraw!"

Under Zhao Lvjiao's order, a large number of Ming troops on the city wall quickly withdrew to the Great Wall on the west side, and Zhao Lvjiao took the remaining hundreds of soldiers to take charge of breaking the rear.

"Stop chasing."

Seeing that there was no chance to completely keep the Ming army led by Zhao, Daishan said loudly: "Open the closed door first, and welcome the Great Khan in!"

Their goal is to win Guancheng. If there is a chance to keep Zhao rate to teach them, that would be the best, but if there is no chance, then they can only focus on winning Malanyuguan.

...

"Khan, do you want to send troops to rescue Yue Tuo and the others?"

Seeing the cavalry continuously entering Guancheng, Dai Shan said with a tired face, although he was not seriously injured in the battle with Zhao Liaojiao, his demon power was almost exhausted, and he didn't have much strength to fight another battle.

"Send someone to notify Yue Tuo and ask him to bring his troops back immediately..."

Looking at the Ming army in formation outside the pass, Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and said, nearly half of the [-] soldiers and horses brought by Yue Tuo were the elite of the Eight Banners. If he just gave up like this, he would not be willing, but went to rescue If so, he is powerless.

There are more and more Ming troops gathering here. If they leave the pass city, they will most likely be blocked in the pass. Even he will die at that time. He can only wait for Yue Tuo to lead his troops back, otherwise he will Also powerless.

"it is good."

Hearing this, Dai Shan nodded, and picked a second-rate expert from among his personal soldiers to inform Yue Tuo.

As time passed, Huang Taiji and Dai Shan stared closely at the pass, but Yue Tuo was nowhere to be seen. Instead, two Ming armies arrived, one was 2 people brought by Deng Kui from the capital, The other was the cavalry led by Man Gui and Hou Shilu.

"Pass down the order and go back to the grassland!"

Looking at the Ming army gathering more and more, Huang Taiji could only grit his teeth and say, if they wait any longer, they may all be in crisis.

"Yes."

Daishan sighed, and then went down to deliver orders. The current situation does not allow them to stay any longer. The Ming army gathered more and more. If they continued to stay, they would even have to sacrifice part of their troops before they could leave safely.

Soon, groups of cavalry left Malanyuguan, and Huang Taiji personally led the soldiers to cut off the rear.

After the Jurchens left, Zhao Ledjiao and Deng Kui reoccupied Malanyuguan.

...

On the other side, seeing that Huang Taiji led the cavalry back to the grassland, Man Gui and Hou Shilu immediately led the cavalry to the battlefield where Wang Zhichen was.

.........

High in the sky, looking at Malanyuguan in the distance, Huang Taiji's expression was extremely gloomy. The situation was supposed to be good, but he didn't expect it to be so embarrassing.

After returning to the ground, Huang Taiji said in a deep voice, "How about the loss?"

"Back to the Great Khan, there are only 430 people who have returned to the grassland."

Du Du said bitterly.

Hearing this, Huang Taiji's body couldn't help shaking. For him, the servants and Mongols were nothing. No matter how many people died, he wouldn't feel sorry for them. But those elites of the Eight Banners are the foundation of their Jurchens.

Even in the face of Yang Gao's siege and the capture of Shenyang City, there were no such heavy casualties. These are not ordinary Eight Banners soldiers, but elites, and each elite has spent a lot of resources to cultivate.

The elite of the entire Eight Banners Army was only more than 2 people, and 8000 people were lost in one entry, nearly [-]% of the elite.

The main reason why he chose to enter the customs at the beginning was because the Jurchen clan had been fighting for many years, and the food in the clan was seriously insufficient. In order to solve the food problem, he would take the risk to propose to enter the customs.

And before he entered the customs, he had learned about the general deployment of the Ming army through those businessmen. There were more than 20 Ming troops in Liaodong and Shanhaiguan, while there were not many Ming troops in other places around the capital. Not much.

In order to contain the more than 20 Ming troops in Liaodong and Shanhaishan, he deliberately brought only more than 1 elites and more than 1 servants and Mongols. He even didn't bring any of them, just to prevent the more than 20 Ming troops from entering Guan Qin easily.

According to his speculation, as long as Datong, Xuanfu, and Liaodong's reinforcements are defeated, the emperors and ministers of Ming Dynasty will never send troops to stop him from looting, and as long as he does not threaten the capital, Liaodong and Shanhaishan will never venture into the pass. , when the time comes, he will be able to swagger and plunder, and then leave calmly.

But there is one thing he miscalculated, that is Su Hao, that lunatic actually let Yuan Chonghuan's 20 troops go north, and after a few days after he entered the customs, Su Hao let Yuan Chonghuan go north, otherwise the capital and Zunhua Nearly [-] troops will never appear in the city of Jizhou and Jizhou so quickly.

And Su Hao let Yuan Chonghuan go north, that is the result of both losers, and he and Su Hao both lose, Daming benefited from it.

You must know that he not only brought more than 1 Eight Banners elites, but also nearly [-]% of the Jurchen clan masters. If they were all wiped out in the pass, the Jurchen clan would definitely decline, let alone continue to harass Daming. Not bad.

And the Mongols had already let him be disabled. In this way, without the trouble of border crossing, Da Ming can use all his energy to deal with Su Hao.

So this time Su Hao allowed Yuan Chonghuan to go north, it can be said that he was completely targeting their Jurchen clan, and he did not hesitate to harm himself!
"Su Hao!"

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji made a knife with his right hand, and slashed fiercely on the palm of his left hand, a lot of blood gushed out: "Ben Khan swears by blood today, I will not take your head as a sacrifice to my family's children, I swear I will not be a human being!"

...

Not to mention Huang Taiji's side, at this time in the pass, the massacre has officially come to an end.

After Man Gui and Hou Shilu led the troops to arrive, under the attack of the two sides, the five thousand cavalry under Yue Tuo's command collapsed instantly.

After defeating Yue Tuo, Man Gui, Hou Shilu, and Wang Zhichen did not stay, but led their troops to Yongping and Luanzhou, where there was Amin, the innate master of the Jurchens.

Under the siege of Li Hongsheng, Yu Xiao, and Xia Bing, three innate masters, Li Hongsheng beheaded Amin on the spot at the cost of one seriously injured and two slightly injured.

And the [-] Xianglan Banner elites under A Min's command were also wiped out. Only a few lucky ones escaped from the battlefield, crossed the Great Wall, and fled back to the grassland.
