Saving the Ming Dynasty: I can exchange bodies with Chongzhen

Chapter 24 The Battle of Dingding!

"Everyone says we are bandits. Now I'll let you see that we are not so easy to mess with." Li Dingguo said with cracked lips in Feala City.

"General, you said that the Tartars will not attack the city immediately, right?" asked one of his lieutenant generals, swallowing dryly.

Li Dingguo was silent.

"When will General Sun arrive?"

This time, Li Dingguo replied firmly: "It will be here soon. I have sent someone back to deliver the letter."

This sentence is what has supported them till now.

It has to be said that Sun Kewang's strategic planning was extremely correct. If Zhu Changgan were still alive, he would also be impressed that history can often be very wrong if it is just a little bit wrong.

As the two brothers of Daxi, Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo's talent points complement each other and depend on each other.

Sun Kewang's skills lie in the logistics and training of the army, as well as in the formulation of strategies, while Li Dingguo's skills lie in military affairs.

This is also why in later history books, the military achievements of the two Dashi brothers, Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo, were so amazing before they broke up.

After the separation, the two of them quickly became devastated.

Now, throwing themselves completely into the arms of Daming has completely eliminated any rifts that might have existed between the two of them, and they have become a united force.

History will not change because of certain people, but history often changes its trajectory because of certain people.

……

Dozens of kilometers away, several scouts were digging at the soil on the ground, identifying the marks on it, and blowing the whistles around their necks.

"found it!"

"found it!"

The heavy snow did not stop the Ming army. They were the troops led by Sun Kewang sent by Li Dingguo.

The troops of the five camps headed for Hetuala.

In the view of Sun Yingyuan and others, Nurhaci destroyed the Huifa tribe in Hetuala, merged the Ula tribe, created the Eight Banners, promoted military farming, conquered the Donghai Jurchens, subdued the Sakhalian tribe, and established the Later Jin regime in Hetuala and called himself Khan.

In addition, Hetuala has Yuetuo, and Dorgon will definitely join forces with Yuetuo when he is desperate.

However, Sun Kewang held the opposite attitude. He believed that given Dorgon's personality, he would definitely not go to Hetuala, but would go to Feala.

Now I see that he made the right bet!
"Hurry up, Dorgon is just ahead. Anyone who kills the Qing emperor will be granted a title of nobility!"

Wow~
The originally somewhat loose formation suddenly shrank. The high-intensity charges and pursuits of the enemies in the past few days, especially the battles against the Manchu nobles, were particularly fierce.

Those bondservants, knowing full well that they were going to die, burst out with fighting power that was no weaker than that of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty at their peak.

After a few days, they had participated in so many battles that they couldn't even count them. They were almost exhausted, and many brothers even died forever on this land.

But when they heard the news about Dorgon, they instantly became eager to fight.

"The damn Tartars are so good at running that they actually ran all the way to their ancestral land?!"

"Take advantage of his illness to kill him!"

"Fuck him!"

"Dry……"

If it weren't for the heavy snow, they would have reached Feala long ago. They had lost their way several times along the way, but now they finally found the right direction again.

……

"Get out of here, you son of a bitch!"

A Tartar rolled down from the city wall with blood spurting out. The Ming army soldier who was speaking was about to attack again, but was nailed to the city wall by an arrow.

Sun Kewang had not arrived yet, but the Battle of Feala City had already begun. In the snowy weather, the soldiers of both sides were fighting on the city walls.

Li Dingguo swung his shield and knocked a Tartar off the city wall, but he was hit in the leg by an arrow.

"Stick together!" The Ming soldiers formed groups of ten, some holding shields, some holding spears, and charged forward, stabbing the Tartars one by one.

Although the Tartars were ferocious, they had no advantage in front of the Ming army.

The snow on the city wall and the sticky blood on the ground were trampled into mud.

At the same time, on one side of Feala City, a warhorse suddenly appeared, rushing out of the snowstorm, followed by two, three, and hundreds of thousands of horses, gathering into a stream and galloping over...

……

In an instant, a muffled horn sounded, and a solemn atmosphere was about to break out.

Because of the heavy snow on the ground, the cavalry's voice was heavy and muffled, but such a muffled sound was so palpitating when it fell on people's heartbeats.

This charge of just a few kilometers made the generals on both sides' mouths dry and their blood boil.

At this moment, Dorgon finally saw the appearance of this Ming army. Before this, he had been in the palace.

Therefore, it is not clear what this Ming army is like.

It was not one of the five major battalions, but the fighting power of this army was beyond his expectations. The fighting power and fighting will they displayed were not weaker than those of the five major battalions. There was a kind of ferocity in their eyes that was ready to devour anyone.

All this was subverting his cognition.

Over the past few months, Dorgon has been wondering why the Ming people suddenly became so brave?
Perhaps... it has something to do with Zhu Youjian's ruthlessness. He killed more than half of the court officials and beheaded tens of thousands of gentry in several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. This cruelty may be one of the factors that led to the current situation.

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, the sound of killing was already deafening in the valley outside the city.

"kill!"

"kill--"

The roar of tens of thousands of people was like thunder, shaking the entire world, and the dark clouds and the earth were trembling.

The battle of life and death is like the water of Qiantang River rushing towards you.

……

On November 26, the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty faced off in a decisive battle.

Arrows and muskets streaked across the sky; some fell on the ground, some on shields, and some on people.

The bloody smell instantly filled the air, and the entire mountain became strange and violent.

On the snowfield, everything became intense. Shouts and cries of killing came from far away and were like the tide, like huge waves hitting the rocks on the shore.

Everything combined into a violent roar.

Swords, spears, arrows, cannons, muskets... waves of blood exploded.

……

The wind and snow swirled in the air, dancing like blades across the wilderness.

Mixed with countless waves of sound, a mixture of blood and stickiness.

After two and a half hours, the battle in Feala City finally came to an end, and the smell of blood was so strong that it was sickening.

In the chaos, someone suddenly shouted: "Dorgon is dead!"

"It's done! I really did it!"

Wow~
All the Pinglu troops were in an uproar.

Whether it was Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo or the soldiers below, their initial thoughts of rebelling and joining the army were just to get some salary, curry favor with the rebel king, and occasionally train, just for show.

Being conferred a title of nobility or honor is just a trick to deceive yourself.

But now, it has actually come true, this incredible wealth has actually fallen on my head...
