Chapter 56 Offensive and defensive changes?Bang Pingshan Customs!

Wearing armor, Sapphire rode forward, looked at Hong Chengchou, and said confidently:
"Marquis of Yongchang...Sapphire!"

"If you lose to Ben Hou, you won't be wronged!"

On the side, Zu Dale cursed angrily:
"You hide your head and show your tail, you don't even have a name..."

Suddenly, Hong Chengchou stopped Zu Dale, clapped his hands and smiled lightly, which gradually turned into a hearty laugh.

Before the formation of the two armies, Hong Chengchou's tears flowed from his laughter, and he seemed to be insane.

Seeing Lan Yu felt a chill, she waved to Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Liaodong, and asked:

"General Wu, is this man crazy?"

The moment Zu Dale saw Wu Sangui, he clenched his fists and said coldly:
"Wu Sangui!"

"You pay back my cousin's life!"

At this moment, Hong Chengchou stopped laughing and said with emotion:

"Marquis of Yongchang... Sapphire? This general will assume that he has the same name and surname as that Sapphire."

"Da Ming really didn't deserve to die! There is such a famous general as you! It's a pity, it's too late."

"That's all, let me see how you left these [-] cavalry here."

When it came to the end, Hong Chengchou turned his head and returned to the army formation somewhat dispirited.

If it could have been earlier, maybe those soldiers would not have died, and he... would not have surrendered to Manqing.

Zu Dale gave Wu Sangui a hard look, and followed Hong Chengchou back to the army formation.

……

Sapphire looked at the backs of the two, narrowed her eyes, and asked:
"General Wu, this person was a general of the Ming Dynasty before?"

Wu Sangui nodded, said with a wry smile:

"General Hong used to be the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the governor of Jiliao. He fought against the bandits in the Qing Dynasty, and won many battles."

"The year before last, in order to save the dangerous situation in Liaodong, General Hong led more than [-] people to support him. If His Majesty hadn't urged us...ahem."

Lan Yu realized instantly, and when Hong Chengchou and the two returned to the army formation, he raised his right hand and shouted:
"put"

In the next second, the sound of the cannons of Hongyi cannons resounded through the night sky.

In the Qing army.

Caught off guard, Hong Chengchou nearly fell off his horse, quickly clamped his horse's belly, and looked around.

When he saw the bloody and bloody soldiers being bombed one after another, he shouted:
"Drumming"

"Army Charge"

This time he was negligent again. He didn't expect that the general on the opposite side would dare to use artillery at such a short distance?

A few seconds later, amidst the continuous sound of artillery, the thick sound of war drums sounded.

"dong dong dong"

The Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners, who were in chaos, gathered one after another when they heard the sound of the drums, and charged towards the Ming army.

Zu Dale held his bleeding left arm and shouted:
"Those who kill Wu Sangui will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver!"

……

Seeing the Manchu army rushing forward, Chang Mao decisively ordered:
"put"

Tens of thousands of soldiers aimed their guns at the front one after another.

"bang bang bang"

Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, thousands of Han Chinese and Eight Banners rushing to the front turned their backs, and were immediately trampled into flesh by the cavalry in the back row.

……

And Chang Sen took this opportunity to lead fifty thousand Guanning iron cavalry, and went directly behind the Manchu army, blocking their way back.

……

Inside Shanhaiguan.

Huang Taiji rode on a tall horse, raised his head, looked into the distance, and murmured:

"Mr. Fan, it seems that General Hong and the Ming army fought against each other."

"This time, can my Daqing really enter the Central Plains?"

Fan Wencheng showed disdain, bowed and said:

"Your Majesty, with Zhu Youjian here, the Ming Dynasty will surely perish. He doesn't know how to fight, and has changed generals many times."

"This is Qing Dynasty..."

Suddenly, Fan Wencheng felt that his surroundings were much brighter. He looked up at the sky with a look of fear on his face. He threw himself at Huang Taiji and shouted:

"There is an ambush!"

Tens of thousands of rockets were seen falling from the sky, and in just a few seconds, a fire broke out in Shanhaiguan.

Just as the Eight Banners troops of the Manchu and Qing dynasties dispersed one after another and put out the fire everywhere, the sound of artillery came from the direction of the four city gates.

"boom boom"

Huang Taiji ran up the city wall with an ugly face, saw the densely packed Ming army surrounding Shanhaiguan, and said annoyedly:

"It's hit!"

Dorgon hurried over and said anxiously:

"Your Majesty, all four city gates have collapsed, and the Ming army is trying to trap us here!"

Fan Wencheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and persuaded:

"Your Majesty, why don't we go down and hide first, this city wall is not strong."

Earlier, their Manchu artillery blasted for half an hour, and several sections of the city wall collapsed. If the Ming soldiers hadn't run fast, they might have been buried in Shanhaiguan.

Now Feng Shui turns, and it is their turn to be trapped in Shanhaiguan.

Huang Taiji closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said:
"Call together the army and rush out of Shanhaiguan!"

……

at the same time.

Outside Shanhaiguan.

Wei Guogong Xu Da commanded an army of [-] under his command. After surrounding Shanhaiguan, he ordered artillery to attack the city.

Today, Shanhaiguan is the burial place of the Eight Banners Army of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties!
……

After a while, the city wall of Shanhaiguan collapsed section by section under continuous artillery bombardment.

In an instant, smoke and dust rose.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huang Taiji led the Eight Banners Army of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties out of Shanhaiguan.

What came oncoming was the dense cloud of projectiles, and hundreds of tiger squatting cannons.

Just a face-to-face meeting, nearly [-] Manchu Eight Banners troops were blown into blood.

In desperation, Huang Taiji had no choice but to withdraw his troops and lead the army back to Shanhaiguan.

……

Wei Guogong Xu Da waited until the Manchu Eight Banners army returned to Shanhaiguan, ordered his soldiers to suspend the offensive and set up camp.

Only hundreds of Hongyi cannons were left to bombard Shanhaiguan in turn.

……

early morning.

When it was just dawn.

Hong Chengchou coughed heavily, looked around, and saw the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Chinese Eight Banners, nearly [-] cavalry, only a few hundred people left at this moment.

Looking around, there are corpses and pieces of flesh all around, and it is difficult to find even a complete corpse, which is enough to show how tragic the fight last night was.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horseshoes.

Yongchang Hou Lanyu rode his horse to come before Hong Chengchou and others, lay on the horse's head, and said with great interest:

"Shangshu of the Ministry of War? Governor Ji Liao?"

"This Marquis asks you, are you willing to surrender?"

In the battle last night, Hong Chengchou might have slipped away if he hadn't laid down a heavy siege and the [-] Guanning cavalry led by Chang Sen had harassed him.

Because of this, Lan Yu wanted to persuade this person to surrender at this moment, and gave it to the emperor of the Chongzhen Dynasty.

Hong Chengchou smiled miserably, glanced over the armors of the soldiers of the Ming army, and muttered to himself:
"It's too late, His Majesty... he can't tolerate me waiting."

"I...have no face to see His Majesty."

Afterwards, Hong Chengchou took off the Manchu armor on his body, turned around and bowed in the direction of Shuntian Mansion.

After getting up, he picked up the sharp sword on the ground and drew it to kill himself.

When those hundreds of people saw Hong Chengchou committing suicide, they all knelt down and begged for surrender as if they had lost their backbone.

Seeing that Hong Chengchou would rather kill himself than return to Daming, Lan Yu frowned and ordered:
"Sen'er, you lead the army to stay here and clean up the battlefield."

"Mao'er, take hundreds of guards and go to Shanhaiguan with my uncle!"

When Chang Mao heard that he was going to Shanhaiguan, he immediately smiled brightly, and hurriedly mobilized the guards.

Chang Sen led Wu Sangui to the front, pointed to the hundreds of surrendered soldiers, and asked:
"Uncle, what about those people?"
