Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 312
Dorgon deserves to be the Great Regent of the Qing Dynasty. In just one month, he mobilized the Qing Dynasty nationwide. The entire Qing Dynasty, including Monan Mongolia and Mobei Mongolia, is fully supporting Dorgon Dagon goes to war with Daming.

Of course, the high-level officials of the Qing Dynasty now know that Dorgon suffered a defeat at Shanhaiguan. Potential.

Of course the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, who now sits in the capital of the Qing Dynasty, is a remarkable figure in the history of the Qing Dynasty. She is a Mongolian and the pride of the Kormi tribe. She married her aunt when she was 13 years old when she conceived His uncle Huang Taiji was not even as good as a third-rate concubine at the beginning of his status in the palace.

But she is talented and quite scheming. For other women, the harem is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, because if it is not done properly, there will be no bones left, and she will not know how she died.

But this woman thrives in the harem, like a fish in water, with ease, even though she is only thirteen or fourteen years old, beauty is only one aspect, she can also speak well, is good at dealing with affairs, and is also good at winning men's sympathy and love, very She quickly became one of the influential women around Huang Taiji. Apart from Huang Taiji, Dai Shan, Dorgon and many others liked her.

Don't look at Qing Dynasty as a new thing, don't look at Huang Taiji's dominance, but the battle in the palace has never stopped, intrigue, jealousy, sometimes even bloody, but this woman walked all the way with a smile and became Huang Taiji One of the best figures in the harem.

Huang Taiji passed away suddenly, and this woman was the mediator. For the foundation of her ancestors and the Aixinjueluo family, she endured humiliation and took advantage of her unique status, power, youth and beauty, and her relationship with princes such as Daishan and Dorgon. The delicate relationship between them turned the tide, successfully resolved the crisis of power struggle between the two factions of Hauge and Dorgon, avoided a fratricide within the royal family, and helped the six-year-old Xiao Shunzhi to the throne of God, but The power essentially fell into the hands of Dorgon.

This is undoubtedly the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's relationship with Dorgon. It is said that the relationship between the two of them is ambiguous. Some people saw Dorgon going in and out of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's bedroom many times. Although they are sisters-in-law and brothers, they are both Young men and women, coming and going so unscrupulously, it is inevitable that they will be suspected of being under the sun.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang heard that Dorgon had suffered a defeat in Shanhaiguan, and she immediately supported Dorgon with all her strength, mobilizing troops, ammunition, and money for him. Then they concentrated in the Ningjin area to replenish Dorgon's troops and ammunition supplies.

In the current Qing Dynasty, Dorgon basically had the final say, mainly because of the strong support from the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang behind the scenes.

Of course, this woman supports Dorgon in order to consolidate her own status and the status of Horqin, the Mongolian tribe behind her. Prince Su Hauge is not her biological son, otherwise she would not be able to secretly collude with Dorgon. Xiao Fulin, the ninth son of Huang Taiji, helped him onto the throne.

A six-year-old kid, what does he know?Of course, it is all up to the regent to take the regent. To put it bluntly, the current regent Dorgon is the emperor on the 2nd, or the quasi-emperor. He can issue orders on behalf of the emperor and order the entire Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, under the planning of Dorgon and the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, the Qing Dynasty dispatched troops and generals to support Dorgon in going to war with the Ming Dynasty.

Because now they know that although the emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty "dead Sheji", the prince Zhu Cihong is still there.But the 15-year-old prince can't secure the country with literature, and can't rule the country with martial arts, so the power falls in the hands of the prince and grand teacher, Lin Yi, who has money from the Ministry of War.

What kind of character Ji Dong is, the current high-level Qing Dynasty knows.In the past few years, from Huang Taiji to Dorgon, from Yuetuo to Amin, to Abatai, and even Oboi, the number one warrior in the Qing Dynasty, they have dealt with Lin Yi, or they have all eaten Lin Yi Fortunately, whether it was a frontal confrontation or a surprise attack from behind, the entire Qing Dynasty, including the Mongolian tribes, firmly remembered this all-powerful name.

Now Ji Dong is not only famous in the Central Plains, but also in Shengjing outside the pass. He is also a God of War. Many Tartars, including the Mongolian Tartars and Prince Baylor of the Manchu Tartars, all use Lin Yi as their imaginary enemy and practice hard to kill the enemy. , dreaming of one day defeating Lin Yi on the battlefield, making contributions, and shining a bright light on the family.

There is even a saying among them that if you want to conquer the Han people, you must first conquer the Ming Dynasty, and if you want to conquer the Ming Dynasty, you must first conquer Ji Dong.

These characters mainly include the rising stars of the Qing Dynasty, Yue Le, Shuo Tuo, Man Dahai, Xihan, Suo'etu, etc. When you mention their names, all of them are powerful and capable of fighting.

According to the original historical development, especially after Shunzhi entered the Central Plains, the Eight Immortals crossed the sea to show their magical powers and wiped out the anti-Qing forces and the remnants of the Ming Dynasty in order to achieve the purpose of ruling and enslaving the Han people.Yue Le killed Zhang Xianzhong, Suo'etu is the future assistant minister of Kangxi, not to mention Man Dahai and Xihan, they are also the mainstay of the Qing Dynasty.

In addition, there are Mongolian fierce generals Tieli, Dada Chier, and so on.

Now when they heard that the regent Dorgon had lost the battle, almost the entire army was wiped out in the battle of Shanhaiguan, and the commander of the Ming army was Lin Yi, they felt that the opportunity had come, and it was time to show their skills on the battlefield.

Therefore, they rushed to the Ningjin battlefield with their swords and guns and their personal guards.

So soon Dorgon gathered another 8 troops, including 400 red cannons, 5 elite Eight Banners, and the remaining 3 horses, including artillery and infantry.

This 8 army is not only the Eight Banners, but also a new unit led by Yue Le, which is the all-powerful Green Battalion.

The green battalion is a new type of arms established with reference to the establishment of the private battalion, marked by the green flag, and with the battalion as the organizational unit.

The main body of the Green Battalion is mainly Han soldiers who surrendered. After training, they are equipped with muskets.

This time Yue Le brought 2 green battalion soldiers to assist Dorgon in fighting the Ming army.

In addition to Hauge, Obai, Wu Sangui, and Kong Youde, Dorgon suddenly swelled up again with the addition of so many strong generals and soldiers.

Now Dorgon's 8 troops are stationed more than 40 miles outside Shanhaiguan, and Dorgon held another military meeting to discuss how to attack Shanhaiguan.

In the military tent, Dorgon's subordinates were full of talents, bustling with people, and everyone was chattering. The result of the discussion was that the Ming army would never dare to open a field battlefield with the Qing army. To win, or to use tricks and tricks to win by surprise.If in the wild, the Ming army is definitely no match for real swords and guns.

Now that the Qing Dynasty has so many soldiers and horses who are used to fighting, and red cannons, the Ming army's artillery advantage no longer exists.When they get there, they must stick to the pass and wait for the opportunity.You can use a cannon fire to blast away the Guancheng, kill the generals to go in, the Ming army can be broken, and Lin Yi can be captured.

Therefore, there is no need to discuss at all, just send troops directly.This is of course strongly advocated by Man Dahai, Yue Le and others.

Dorgon, Hauge, Wu Sangui, Kong Youde and others shook their heads for this kind of remarks. They didn't quite agree, because they felt that things were not as simple as they imagined. These young people were too arrogant and arrogant. Not afraid of tigers, they don't know how powerful the Ming army is, because these people were more arrogant than them before, but now they are honest after suffering.

Dorgon wanted to hear Wu Sangui's opinion, after all, he was once an important minister that Ming relied on.

Wu Sangui concluded that the failure of the last Shanhaiguan battle was mainly due to two points. One was because of the surprise attack of the Ming army, they rushed to the battle when they were caught off guard and exhausted.

Another point is that Lin Yi has a musket battalion under his command, all of which are new-style muskets, which are different from the old-fashioned muskets, birds, and three-eyed muskets. This kind of musket does not need to be ignited at all. Shooting, it's just incredible.

After Wu Sangui finished speaking, Gongshun Wang Kong Youde couldn't help nodding, and he very much agreed with what Wu Sangui said, because he had a deep understanding.

He recalled that he was fighting that night, and in a hurry, he cut down several Ming soldiers in a row. This was a Ming soldier aiming at him with a gun in the flames.Kong Youde relied on his horse's sharpness and sharpness, and rushed over with his sword, thinking that if the opponent's gun could not be fired, he could chop the Ming army under the horse.

In the end, I was completely wrong. The other party fired the gun as soon as he raised his gun, without giving him any chance at all.A bullet flew towards him, and with a bang, it hit his head.He felt a pain in his head and fell off his horse.

He thought his head was broken, but after falling off the horse, he felt that everything on his body was still his own. When he touched it with his hand, the helmet was gone, and there was a burning pain on his forehead. When he saw blood on his hand, he knew he was alive. .

Get up from the ground again, pick up the big knife, and charge desperately.It was only after the battle that he realized that the bullet just pierced his helmet, and the bullet passed close to his bald forehead, and the scalp on the top of his head was pierced with a ditch.

He was so frightened that he felt cold behind his back. It has been so many days since this incident, and he still has lingering fears when he thinks about it.

When Kong Youde said this, he took off his top-wearing feathers, twisted his shiny long braids behind his head, and stretched out his half-bald head for everyone to see.

Sure enough, there was a long scar on his bald forehead.

The words of Wu Sangui and Kong Youde are quite powerful, because these two Han people were once famous military generals in the Ming Dynasty, and they held heavy troops to defend the fortress. After surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, they were still in high positions.

In particular, Kong Youde is now King Gongshun of the Qing Dynasty and one of the three kings of the Han people.Among the Han people, there were very few who were crowned kings by the Manchu Tartars, and Kong Youde was one of them.

After the Phi Island rebellion, he was a miner and led the crowd to surrender to the Qing Dynasty.He brought a group of troops, and more importantly, there were many red cannons in this army.At that time, his army was the one equipped with the most red cannons in the Ming army.

It was precisely because of his surrender that the Manchu Tartars not only had red-clothed cannons, but soon also had the ability to imitate the Han people to make red-clothed cannons. Since then, they have broken the artillery advantage of Ming Dynasty. As well as the Battle of Ningjin, the Qing army used red cannons on a large scale, and the Ming army suffered heavy casualties, with each battle losing more and more miserably.

Kong Youde's contributions to the Qing Dynasty did not stop there. He suppressed North Korea and personally participated in the battles of Songshan and Tashan.

The Battle of Shanhaiguan that just passed was a personal experience, so his words are very powerful, including Prince Su Hauge, and the number one warrior in Manchuria, Obai, also nodded. They all agree with what Wu Sangui and Kong Youde said, and advocate that this time, we must think The surefire strategy is not to use troops rashly. The Lin surname is really not easy to deal with. This opponent is too strong for them to deal with.

But despite this, Man Dahai, Yue Le and other young people still didn't take it seriously. They felt that this group of old guys were scared of being beaten by Ji Dong.Is it that scary?Speaking of the sky, I would never believe that Da Ming's army was able to win their Eight Banners army in a field battle. No matter how powerful Ji Dong is, can he still cover the sky with one hand?He has defeated this and killed that, but he has never met Ben Baylor!
So Yue Le said: "My lords, after talking for a long time, Lin Yi still won the battle of Shanhaiguan with strange skills and ingenuity. Isn't it just a few firearms? We all have cannons in red clothes, so why be afraid of his firearms? Yue Le If you are not talented, you are willing to lead the Green Battalion to attack Shanhaiguan, and if you are defeated, you will be willing to serve as a military order!"

What occasion is this?It is estimated that only he dares to speak, and only he dares to say so.For other people, Dorgon, Hauge, Aobai and others would have been furious long ago.

Because the meaning of Yue Le's words, on the surface, is to volunteer, but in fact, he thinks that people like Dorgon are all idiots, idiots, and waste.

Who are these people?Dorgon, Hauge, Obai, Wu Sangui, Kong Youde, whether they are Tartars or traitors, which one is not the most powerful generation?Can't that make a difference?
But if Yue Le dares to say that, it's not entirely bragging.

Yue Le is the genuine grandson of Nurhachi, not fake at all, because he is the fourth son of Abate, the seventh son of Nurhachi.

The important thing is that this Yue Le is not yet 19 years old, but with his bow and arrow, and his sword on a horse, among the princes and princes of the Qing Dynasty, including the prince and grandson of the Mongolian Tartars, no one can match .In particular, his throwing knives are so perfect that someone gave him the nickname "Three Hands General" at a young age.

Prince Su Hauge valued him very much, Dorgon also wanted to win him over, and the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang also liked him very much, which was why he had mastered the power of the green camp at a young age, and it was his capital to expand.

At this time, Man Dahai saw that the regent Dorgon was still hesitating, so he also stepped forward and bowed to salute: "My lord, my subordinates are willing to attack Shanhaiguan with Yue Lebeile!"

Man Dahai is only 22 years old this year, but don’t look young. Like Yue Le, he is an elite of the Aixinjueluo family. He is the seventh son of Prince Li Daishan and the authentic grandson of Nurhachi. He is used to fighting , Repeatedly made military exploits, participated in the Jinzhou War, the Songshan and Tashan battles, defeated Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui, was named Fuguogong at the age of 19, and was later promoted to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

If it wasn't for Ji Dong's crossing, that is to say, according to the original historical development, after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, he would have defeated Li Zicheng.

Therefore, no matter in terms of status, origin or meritorious service, Man Dahai would not stab Yue Le. He is now Beizi.He is equivalent to a prince of the Han people, and he was named a prince at his age, which is quite impressive.

On this occasion, only the two of them dared to intervene. The others, like Suo'etu, Xihan, and the princes of Mongolia, Baylor, didn't even dare to fart.

Although the two young beiles were rather arrogant, the regent Dorgon was not annoyed at all. On the contrary, he was very relieved. He was relieved that there were so many bloody characters in their Aixinjueluo family. What is needed is this kind of fighting blood.

He knew how much these two people weighed, so he looked at Hauge, who nodded knowingly, and Dorgon looked at Wu Sangui and Kong Youde, and the two of them also smiled with admiration. , noncommittal.

Just as Dorgon was about to make a statement, the reporter suddenly ran in from the outside.

"Reporting to the Prince Regent, Lin Yi has led a large team out of Shanhaiguan and is coming towards us. The Ming army has 8 troops and is more than 30 miles away."

"Oh?" At this moment, including Dorgon, all the people present, whether they were Manchu Tartars, Mongol Tartars or traitors, suddenly jumped up.

They looked at each other, except for surprise, they were all full of anger and hatred, and they all had expressions like this:
"He still dares to go out and attack us?"

"Does he really think that he is invincible and invincible?"

"Then we will set up a battlefield in the wild and fight him to the death to avenge Shanhaiguan and shame the Xuebing defeat!"

Yue Le and Man Dahai were even more eager to try and couldn't wait.

Dorgon immediately spread out the map to see the terrain in this area.

Haoge, Wu Sangui and others quickly surrounded them, and they immediately made a plan to fight against the Ming army in a vast open space in front of the mountain with their backs. This open space is called Huanggutun!
This Huanggutun is not the same place as the Huanggutun where the Northeast King Zhang Zuolin’s patent column was bombed and died in history. The Huanggutun is in Shenyang, and this Huanggutun is dozens of miles away from Shanhaiguan. There is a big difference. hundreds of miles.

After the regent decided on the battle plan, all the tartars and traitors present were gearing up. When they heard that they were going to fight the Ming army in the open field, they all showed their abilities, Hao Ge, Obai, Yue Le, Man Dahai, Wu Sangui , Kong Youde, Suo'etu, Xihan, Tieli, Dadachier, etc., all asked for orders to take the lead.

Dorgon was relatively calmer than them, his eyes rolled, and he began to divide his troops and arrange troops.

The first one made him send to Yue Le and Man Dahai, and let them lead 2 green battalion soldiers to resist Ji Dong's troops and prevent them from advancing.

Fearing that they would be alone in the green battalion, Wu Sangui and Kong Youde were asked to lead their troops to help.

The second one sent him to Hauge and Aobai. Lin Yi's soldiers left Shanhai Pass, and at this time, the pass city must be empty.Let them each bring 50 soldiers and horses, all of whom are elites of the Eight Banners, and all of them are cavalry, each with [-] cannons, one by water and the other by dry road, go around to the back of Lin Yi's team, attack Shanhaiguan and a piece of stone, and take down After these two pass cities, the soldiers joined together to attack Ji Dong's rear.

The remaining 2 horses, mainly Manchu and Mongolian Tartars, were on standby fifteen miles away from the Green Battalion. At the same time, an artillery camp was set up. The remaining 300 red cannons were not here.

The remaining 1 horses are basically infantry. They are responsible for logistics, foster food, etc. The 1 horses are camped in Huolonggou in Shandong Province, which is their food and grass supply camp.

With Dorgon's arrangement, it is obvious that there is retreat and advance. Hauge, Aobai, Wu Sangui, and Kong Youde all agree that Dorgon will use soldiers.

But Yue Le and Man Dahai didn't take it seriously, and sent two men to the back to take advantage of the gap and attack Shanhaiguan and a piece of stone, which is fine.

But after taking Guancheng, let them attack Ji Dong from behind, it seems unnecessary!

By the time they go around and take Guancheng, the battle here will be over long ago. Is there any need for them to sneak attack?
Also, why set up a second line of defense on the side of the mountain?This is obviously a distrust of their green battalion soldiers, which means that if they can't stand it, they can use the 2 horses to press them up again. Alright, is this necessary?I really agree with both hands, it's superfluous!
But neither of them said a word, and they both held back their energy secretly, meaning that this time we want to let you take a look, can we green battalion soldiers do it?I, Yue Le, and I, Man Dahai, are they Lin Yi's opponents?Is this battle still needing so much trouble?
Therefore, without saying a word, the two Baylor and Beizi set off after counting 2 green battalion soldiers.

The two of them didn't even call out to Kong Youde and Wu Sangui, which means that if you want to follow, you can follow, and if you don't want to follow, you will be dragged down.The implication is that we can do it with you, or we can do it without you.

This is looking down on the two traitors!
Because in terms of official position, Wu Sangui is now the general of Pingxi, which is equivalent to the king of Pingxi, because he was Pingxibo in the Ming Dynasty, surrendered to the past, and only promoted but not surrendered.

And Kong Youde is the king of obedience, these two beile sons are not as good as them.

Not to mention age and seniority, the two Tartars are still 20-year-old brats, Wu Sangui is still in his early 30s even though he is young, and Kong Youde is in his 40s.

In terms of talent and status, both Wu Sangui and Kong Youde are much higher than these two Tartar brats.

Wu Sangui and Kong Youde knew it very well, but they didn't dare to make mistakes. Who would let others be Tartars and be Han Chinese?

If you are not born well, you should be inferior!
So the two of them hurriedly set up soldiers and horses, leading a team of traitors with tens of thousands of horses, and followed behind them, listening to them as they went.

In this way, 2 green battalion soldiers and 1 traitor teams, a total of 3 horses formed the front of the Qing army, left Dorgon's troops in a mighty way, and headed towards Shanhaiguan...
