Chapter 33: God is fair

Compared with the thin, tall and tall Dorgon, Huang Taiji looks fatter.

He looked down at the nosebleeds flowing on his clothes, then looked at Dorgon and said, "Call the shaman over."

Dorgon looked at his brother and whispered: "Call the Han doctor to handle it?"

Huang Taiji pinched his nose with his hands and wanted to speak, but the nosebleed had already entered his mouth, and he had to glare at Dorgon.

Dorgon bowed slightly and left quickly. After a while, he brought a shaman with a feather in his head and a mask.

The venue was quickly surrounded by blue cloth curtains by the guards who looked like clay and wood sculptures. After lighting a handful of hair, the shaman began to ring a bell and circle around Huang Taiji. .

Dodo listened attentively for a while, and then said to his brother Dorgon: "Does he really believe that shamans can cure his nosebleeds?"

Dorgon He frowned and said, "Even Han Chinese doctors can't. In that case, why don't you choose to believe in shamans?"

Duduo looked at his brother strangely, and then sneered: "In order to let the people in the old forest The savage is so determined that he won't even let himself go."

"Shut up!"

Dorgon scolded Duduo in a low voice and pushed him to a quiet place. : "He is our emperor and our brother. He did this all for my Qing Dynasty. If you are rude to him next time, I will punish you severely."

"He deprived us of our military power!"

"That's because we didn't kill Hong Chengchou!"

"If he comes, can he kill Hong Chengchou?"

Dorgon raised his head and looked at the tall Songshan Fort opposite, nodded and said: "Yes!"

"Yes? How is this possible? He has not made any progress in besieging Songshan Fort these days. The Han in Kong Youde's hands The army flags are almost dead, and Fei Yanggu, who besieged Xingshan, has not benefited from Cao Bianjiao."

Dorgon looked at his stupid brother and whispered: "Be prepared, Hong Chengchou. If you want to escape, you must keep all the heavy artillery in Hong Chengchou's hands. I don't think he will take these things with him when he escapes."

The two brothers talked for a while, and the shaman heard from his nose. The strange humming noise gradually stopped.

The fat Huang Taiji walked out of the curtain, washed his hands in the copper basin held by the waiter, and said to Kong Youde, who was standing not far away: "This time, send Mongolian warriors to charge the city. ”

After Kong Youde knelt down on one knee and agreed, he handed a blue military flag to Horqin’s Daruba.

Although he found it strange that it was unwise to use Mongolian cavalry to attack the city, he did not dare to ask.

The same Daruba was also very strange. He also did not say a word, but he heard Dorgon standing aside: "Fill the horizontal ditch!"

Daruba Luba then came to his senses, glanced at Dorgon gratefully, and took his people to prepare..

Huang Taiji looked at Dorgon and said: "You are the smartest among our brothers and the one who knows the most current affairs. Many times, I think our ideas are connected.

Dorgon knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "I understand."

Huang Taiji sighed: "Since you understand. , Don’t save your strength this time.”

After saying that, he left the battlefield.

Dorgon, who had regained his military power, did not have much joy on his face. He did not say a word when facing the generals of the two white flags who gathered around him. He just watched the Mongolian cavalry riding with their leather bags in their arms. Run towards Songshan City.

Songshan Fort is actually not very tall, but due to the terrain, it seems a bit out of reach. This slope does not pose any obstacle to the short Mongolian horses. When the horse's head appears, Within the artillery range, the artillery on Songshan Fort began to roar.

Mongolian cavalry were constantly being smashed to pieces by artillery shells, and many Mongolian horses were turned into piles of minced meat on the way to charge. However, there were still cavalrymen who braved the threat of muskets and arrows. The soil in the leather bag poured into the deep trench.

The battle became fierce from the beginning...

At this moment, Dorgon handed over his command to Duduo, and he came to a small place. of valley.

Xia Chengde has been waiting here for a long time. When he saw Dorgon coming in person, his eyes were bright and he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, when will I return to Songshan Castle?

The general thought that the prince had forgotten me."

Dorgon took Xia Chengde's hand affectionately and said: "For many years, no matter how bad the situation is, I have never used you, no. I forgot about you, but your position is too important.

Even in Jinzhou, my two white flags suffered heavy losses, and I was not willing to use you. Now, it is time for you to make a contribution. "< /p>

Xia Chengde said excitedly: "The general thought that the prince would fight to the death!"

Dorgon smiled and shook his head and said: "You don't need to fight to the death. There are only two things you have to do this time. One is to keep Hong Chengchou, and the other is to keep the artillery of Songshan Fort."

Xia Chengde smiled and said: "Twenty percent of the people in Songshan Fort are ours. As long as we are unexpected, we can achieve what the prince wants. "It's difficult."

Dorgon laughed and said: "Okay, as long as you do it, I will give you a reward. If you want the land around Ningyuan, I will give it to you. If you want the Han people in Ningyuan City, I will give it to you." As your slave, I can give it to you. As long as you do what I say, I will satisfy everything you ask for."

Xia Chengde knelt down and said loudly: "I will definitely live up to the prince. ”

Dorgon helped Xia Chengde up and took picturesHolding his hand and saying: "Tonight, I will leave a gap for you to return to Songshan Castle. Be careful, Hong Chengchou is not an ordinary person."

Xia Chengde said with some pride: "No hard work Your Majesty, we have a way to enter Songshan Castle."

Dorgon's eyes became sharp and he looked at Xia Chengde and said, "Authentic?"

Xia Chengde met Dorgon. His expression changed, and he quickly said: "It is a canyon. The general has only recently discovered that it is possible to pass through this canyon. However, it is only for people, not horses."

Dorgon thought for a moment. , and said to his personal attendant: "Go with General Xia."

Xia Chengde hurriedly said, "Let's leave now, it will be difficult to leave until dark."

Without waiting for the personal attendant's agreement, Xia Chengde said in a hurry: "

While Dorgon was anxiously waiting for news about Xia Chengde, Hong Chengchou was also anxiously waiting for Xia Chengde.

Although Hong Chengchou believed that Wang Pu would not do such outrageous things, he also understood that these damn generals were used to playing hedging, and they were no longer pure soldiers.

Even if Wang Pu will not betray Daming, it is difficult to say that he will not secretly cause trouble.

After half a day of hard work by the Mongolian cavalry, the Henggou in front of Songshan Fort was finally filled in for a hundred steps.

Although many Mongolian cavalry died in the battle, Jiannu did not seem to care about it.

Seeing that the Henggou was damaged, Wu Sangui twice proposed to go out of the city to fight the Mongolian cavalry to prevent them from filling up the ditch. Hong Chengchou did not agree, but ordered to kill him with fierce artillery fire, dense bullets, and feather arrows. Mongol.

Looking at the corpses of the Mongols lying under the city, Hong Chengchou said to Wu Sangui: "Did you know? The purpose of the Ming Dynasty's war with Jiannu should not focus on the gains and losses of one city or one place.

p>

If a city can be exchanged for the lives of a thousand slaves, I will make the exchange without hesitation

From Songshan Fort to Shanhaiguan, we have no less than a hundred such fortresses. So, we can afford it!"

Wu Sangui frowned and said: "Judging from the current situation, Jiannu may not give us a chance to break out."

Hong Chengchou laughed. : "Don't worry, they will definitely give us a chance to break out."

Wu Sangui said: "Why?"

Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "They want to stay here more than keeping us." Get rid of the artillery here."

Wu Sangui sighed: "We are not as important as these artillery."

Hong Chengchou looked at Wu Sangui and said with a smile: "Although the Guan Ning cavalry under your command is elite. , However, these elites are destined to slowly leave the battlefield. The future war will be a world of steel and fire.

Uncle Chang, the world has changed."

Wu Sangui took a long breath and said: "Because of Lantian Yunzhao?"

Hong Chengchou nodded and said: "He changed the way we fight."

Wu Sangui couldn't help but look to the west He went over and whispered:"I, Guan Ning, do not accept the cavalry."

Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "You are also a young hero, so naturally you are a little arrogant. However, I hope you will use all your wisdom when facing Yun Zhao. Come with courage.

Many times, when we think we are incomparably powerful, in Yunzhao's view, our strength is just a castle built on the beach, which can be easily pushed away by the sea. "Falled."

Wu Sangui said suspiciously: "Why do the commander-in-chief admire this person so much that his own prestige is destroyed by others' ambitions?"

Hong Chengchou sighed and said: "Wait until you meet him?" After this person, don’t say anything like this again!"

Wu Sangui closed his eyes slightly and said, "I am eager to see you."

Hong Chengchou smiled and did not answer, and continued to watch the Mongolian cavalry. The city was thrown into mounds of earth.

When attacking a city, there are actually not many strategies to use, whether it is the attacking party or the defending party.

For thousands of years in China, such wars have occurred tens of thousands of times, so that everyone knows what to do when facing such wars.

This is the case at this time.

Before Hong Chengchou showed any flaws, Huang Taiji's only option if he wanted to break through Songshan Fort was to take human lives.

Perhaps, the city will only be breached after it is full of flesh and blood.

Perhaps, you will never have enough to eat, and you will never be able to break through.

Who knows.

In short, the war is still going on, and judging from the situation on the battlefield, it is extremely fair to both sides.

In the evening, Dorgon organized a siege. This time, he dispatched the bannermen of Zhengbai Banner. These warriors in iron armor carried ladders and conducted a tentative attack.

This attack was finally driven back by the efforts of Yang Guozhu and Wu Sangui.

Seeing the Jianzhou people slowly retreating, Hong Chengchou glanced at the sunset on the horizon and said to Wu Sangui and Yang Guozhu: "Let's start making preparations. Let's leave Songshan Fort."
