Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 617 The Battle of Yanshan
The capital in [-] was really an ominous place, and it seemed that anyone who got contaminated here would be unlucky.

Compared with the huge bureaucratic group of the Ming Dynasty, there were only a dozen people in the decision-making team of Chuangjun. After many days, it was initially set at Xianghe, then transferred to Punubao, and then dragged to Yanshan, but when the real army set off, the spies came to report in embarrassment. A few simple lines of defense.

In the end, the battlefield had to be dragged to the small plain next to the capital.

After entering Beijing No.30 for nine days, once again, this city was brought to the fore.

On April 27th, the huge Chuang army finally had enough of eating, drinking and having fun in the capital. Moving their bloated bodies, they slowly arched out of the city. This time Hao Yaoqi's army was at the front, followed by Tian Jianxiu, Liu Fangliang and others. General, there are more troops than when they entered the capital. However, the spirit of forging ahead did not know where it went. If you look closely at the team, a large group of soldiers is followed by a large group Women, and even some with children.

Those originally spirited and excited Shaanxi cavalrymen yawned as they walked on horseback. Many infantrymen had dark circles under their eyes, and they could still listen to them talking about returning from the battle and rolling the dice while walking. Several generals They came on horseback, but when they went out, they were in a carriage. All of them had one thing in common, that is, they had a heavy and heavy package on them.

"God is unfair!"

The chaotic sound of cursing and spitting also followed the army's messy sound at the gate of the city. Poor Chen Yan, the former Shoufu University scholar, the organization was too clever. He was the first to donate 4 taels of silver. He also risked his life to save his life. , put up all the antiques, brocade and curios in the family’s house for sale, all the servants were dismissed, and he himself moved out of the mansion, and lived in the Pudu Temple on the edge of the city. When Emperor Chongzhen was soliciting donations, he only took out 100 Two silver coins, but now he has tossed himself and ruined his family.

Even so, he did not escape the fate of a knife. Li Zicheng did not plan to fight Jiannu in the city of the capital. He survived the siege of Jiannu several times, because he was backed by water transport grains from the south of the Yangtze River, but he did not have Dashun, and it was not in Dashun's interest to be trapped in an isolated city.

Having been tortured so cruelly in the capital, Wu Sangui is still under the banner of borrowing soldiers from the east to avenge the country!Li Zicheng was naturally worried about leaving the capital behind, so he picked out another group to kill among the demoted officials in the Ming Dynasty. Chen Yan ranked No.1 on the beheading list.

"Why bother in the first place! Why bother in the first place!"

Thinking about what I have done all these years as an official, especially these days when I finally became the chief assistant, I might as well support Emperor Chongzhen's southward relocation plan, even if the emperor shirks responsibility in the end, scholars all over the world will still praise me for being a good person Yes, it's like now, after all the tricks have been done, he has been named as a second minister, but in the end he still can't escape the knife on the head.

He was suddenly pressed on the open space in front of the Desheng Gate, and hearing the sound of the sword waving behind him, Chen Yan sighed in sorrow and remorse. Unfortunately, he didn't wait for this guy who wasted his country and the people to make any regrets. The big knife behind him had already been chopped off, blood was splashed everywhere, and human heads were flying. Dozens of important officials of the court who did not help the Ming Empire at the last moment ended in such a hasty end and died in the capital city.

Li Yan's soldiers and horses followed the sacrificial flags and left the city on blood. However, amidst the applause of foolish people, Li Yan didn't even have the interest to turn his head to take a look. On the one hand, his face was full of heaviness.

Of the three things that Song Qingshu explained, Dashun has failed two and a half now, and the scholars who have been handed over to the world to watch still leave the impression that they are still the bandits back then. This is also the reason why he supports not fighting at the capital, but at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, so as not to catch fire behind his back, but even if he fights at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, the outcome is still unknown.

Although the Dashun Army has almost 40 horses, which is almost twice as large as Jiannu, but the nearly 30 horses of the Dashun Army are infantry, and many of them are descended from the Ming Dynasty like Tang Tong and Chen Yongfu. Even if there are tens of thousands The cavalry, but the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Shun army is really not as good as the cavalry of Ningyuan back then. Wu Sangui had [-] Guanning iron cavalry, and the Shun army often needed [-] to [-] cavalry to hold them.

This is just the Guan Ning Army, how powerful is the Eight Banners that have suppressed the Guan Ning Army for many years?

Even so, if Li Yan had the confidence to fight Jiannu to the death before entering the capital, but now?Seeing the heavy Huangpu carried by the 16 people in front of him moving slowly, and there were so many actors and actresses serving there with grinning pride around King Chuang, Li Yan shook his head again with difficulty.

Xuan!

…………

The battlefield was placed in Miyun, next to the foot of Yanshan Mountain, leaving only Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and a few literati guarding the capital with heavy troops. Li Zicheng mobilized all the troops that could be mobilized, a total of more than 37. Almost all the main forces of the Dashun Army for many years were in this team, and the huge infantry group also brought slow speed. They marched for a full day and camped for another night. On the morning of April 28th, they arrived at Yanshan Mountain. However, the slave-building army there is already ready to go, and has occupied the most favorable position.

The Great Wall, the strongest fortress for the Han people to defend their homeland, is filled with the flags of the Eight Banners of Jianzhou. The 23 Eight Banners of Jianzhou are deployed at the southern foot of the Simatai Great Wall, by the shore of Yuanyang Lake. Looking from a distance, the entire mountain seems to be surrounded by The colorful red, yellow, blue and white are divided into a huge mosaic.

King Sanshun and Ningyuan's surrendered infantry were displayed in the forefront, the Mongolian cavalry horses on both wings were restlessly planing the ground, and the Mongolian bow riders in leather war robes were slowly taking care of the bow strings. In the center, more than 6 strong soldiers from the Eight Banners of Jianzhou Buqi looked down murderously with the sharpness of a snowflake-rolled knife wind from Liaodong.

In fact, there is Song Qingshu in this time and space, the fourth entry into Guan Zhengming and the battle of Ningjin, the Qihuo army gave Houjin a great trauma, not to mention the 3 or 3 horses that Dorgon paid for, it was only Jinzhou. , just like Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Town at the beginning, firmly stuck behind Jiannu's back, so that in this expedition, Dorgon had to leave [-] people to guard against the Shengjing area, and he was still not at ease. They also conscripted as many as [-], but the Korean soldiers are really worrying, not even as good as the Han people who surrendered, and they were left behind by Dorgon as civilian husbands.

However, in this era, perhaps what those metaphysicians said is true, no matter Jiannu or Dorgon, their luck is booming. , Ewenki, Hezhe, Dahaner and other tribes launched continuous wars of conquest, and the conquered tribes were forcibly incorporated into the Eight Banners of Jianzhou. In a few years, not only the number of people lost, but also more than the Eight Banners of Manchuria in history Three or forty thousand strong men go out, which is the motivation for war.

It was also because of the war with the savage Jurchen in the poor mountains and rivers that Dorgon not only supplemented his two white flags, but also gathered his popularity again in Houjinzhong, and last year he killed Huang Taiji, and Hauge In the battle against the emperor, he was superior again, and proposed to support Dayuer's son, the little emperor Fulin, to succeed him. He and Jierhalang supervised the country in the name of their uncle, and completely suppressed Hauge's influence.

Jierhalang is old and submissive, and now the entire Manchu Qing is equal to him, Dorgon, who has the final say, and it coincides with the collapse of the Ming Dynasty. The Northern Song Dynasty had an even better time.

After waiting for about half an hour, Dorgon put down the binoculars that he had been holding up and didn't feel too tired, rubbed his bald forehead, and couldn't help laughing.

"There are so many people, there are so many people!"

"Regent, although these rogues are a mob, after all, they have just captured the capital and destroyed the Ming Dynasty, and they are in full swing. The veteran thinks that it is not appropriate to fight with them quickly! The thieves will attack with all their nests, and there will be no backup. Moreover, the water transportation in the south of the Yangtze River is cut off, and the food and wages are also in vain. It’s because the supply is poor, our army’s food for Ningjin’s reclamation is less than that of the bandit army, so we only need light cavalry to harass the rear, it doesn’t take a month, the bandit will run out of food and leave!”

Following the right master, Fan Wencheng also experienced a trough and climbed back again, ranking first among the Qing scholars. He also watched the mighty Chuang army line up below Yanshan for more than half an hour. The number one Ming traitor couldn't help clasping his fists in a daze and admonishing him.

His words are considered old-fashioned, but the deeper meaning is that he was scared by the last battle in the pass.

Daming also has a battle-ready army!Who knows if there are 40 million people in Mali?

After Dorgon's defeat in the past few years, he mostly fought against the savage Jurchen, and did not participate in the fifth entry into the customs. The Jianzhou nobles who followed him recently were similar. Dorgon couldn't help frowning at the look of the soldiers under his command.

"King Pingxi, what do you think?"

Looking around, Dorgon suddenly yelled, and immediately a general wearing a mandarin jacket, whose hair was also shaved into a money mouse tail, and who could hardly be seen as a Han Chinese, suddenly knelt on the ground on one knee.

"The final general would like to invite you to be the vanguard, but a mob, as long as there are [-] cavalry, they can defeat the enemy overnight!"

Wu Sangui's eyes were a little red, the capital was in such a state of chaos, Wu's house was ransacked, and the news of the extermination of the family could not be concealed, not to mention the last battle in the capital, Wu Sangui had to wear a uniform during the chaos, and borrowed the help of the capital The dilapidated houses in the suburbs were disguised as intruders to escape, and this proud guy was already very angry. Now he is really counting family and country hatred, new and old debts together, that impulse to kill, even those who The Jianzhou Titans all felt a palpitation.

Dorgon, who watched this scene, couldn't help laughing with his head raised.

"Good! You are worthy of being the number one Batulu in the Guanning Army! King Pingxi, this king will give you this opportunity. Your Ningyuan soldiers will be the vanguard, and King Sanshun and Duke Jishun will attack the vanguard first. Wu Keshan, Tong Yangzheng, Ru Wait to attack the thieves from the two wings!"

"Today, this king will break him into robbers!"

Two sharp eyes staring down, like a falcon staring at a rabbit, Dorgon yelled ferociously, following his words, all the generals who were pointed to agreed loudly, and immediately the war machine of the Eight Banners roared into operation stand up.

More than ten minutes later, the soldiers of the various battalions of the Chuangjun Army who were carrying the banner spears and ran to the battle positions in front of the battle panting, had just stood still when the sound of heavy horseshoes suddenly sounded from the opposite slope of Yanshan Mountain. The Yuanyang Lake was so shaken that circle after circle of ripples, under the terrified gaze of those low-level infantrymen, in front of them were countless ferocious cavalry holding their spears and knives high, taking advantage of the mountain situation, to overwhelm them The general rushed over.

Two months ago, the big guys were still worthless, and they died when they died, but now, they are all heavy on their backs and waists, and there is even an extra woman in the team behind. The barbarian, with the gun in his hand, couldn't help but tremble.

"Hold on!"

In the formation, Hao Yaoqi shouted loudly
