A surprise attack on the capital is the so-called strategy of attacking the "heart".

For Shaerhuda, the first person who can arrive smoothly is to be the best. The key to this surprise attack is not to break through the capital. With just over 10,000 troops, the probability of breaking through the Southern Dynasty is pitiful.

The Eastern Barbarians entered the pass four times, and they were all very large in scale. They also showed off their power outside the capital, but they never conquered the capital.

The purpose of a surprise attack on the capital was to shake the defense line of Shanhaiguan. It doesn’t matter whether it can be broken or not. What is important is to panic the capital, thereby causing a chain reaction and creating opportunities for Dorgon.

As for the second best thing to settle down and killing the people, even if they have been leaked, it is the second best thing to kill a few people? The strategic purpose is to be the one who is at the city and intimidate the heart of the capital.

Jin Sheng led his troops to form an array, two or three miles away. Seeing the figure in the forest, he couldn't help but say: "Fortunately, the veteran has a long foot stick, so he rushed to catch up quickly. If the Tartars ran away, the general would have to peel my skin."

He said, "Jiucai, I think you don't want to be the village chief. Keep working with me. With this credit, not to mention the generals of the camp, the veteran military officer can still give it."

Jiucai was a little moved, but hesitated for a moment and said, "Being the village chief is also a death for the Lord. Sir, this time it was a lucky draw, and it was not very rewarding... Besides, after being injured, your hands and feet are not as flexible as before..."

"Barring." Jin Sheng said: "Isn't this a credit? You can say less useless things. I think you have nothing to do with your hands and feet. Just decide. After the war, the old capital wrote a memorial to it."

"this..."

"Stop talking nonsense, the Tartars are here."

But I saw the dense Tartars gushing out of the forest, with a big bald head full of eyes, and a disgusting mouse tail behind my head. Arranged on the side of the forest, with long spears and shields, and huge swords and axes.

Jin Sheng observed for a moment and said, "How many people are there? There are not two thousand, right?"

He said left and right: "About 1,500 people."

He also said with sharp eyes: "It doesn't look like a real Tartar."

Jin Sheng's heart turned around and shouted, "Where is it that night? Let me show you, it's impossible for the Tartars to be just such a few people."

Li Jiucai also said: "What the lord is talking about is four or five hundred boats, at least tens of thousands of Tartars."

"I guess I plan to use this little force to restrain the old capital, so the main force can run away!" Jin Sheng did not guess and said, "No, I can't let the Tartars run away easily."

He shouted, "Press up all the soldiers and eat first."

Three thousand lines are arranged in a row, without panic, the military order is pushed forward like a wall. Two or three miles away, but the effort of a cup of tea is reduced by half. The face of the Tartars is already vaguely visible.

Seeing the Xia army approaching, the Tartars lined up next to the forest became turbulent. Kong Tingxun's heart was raised to his throat and shouted that he ordered the soldiers to prepare for war. The ones that filled the muskets and the ones that were on the muskets were filled with muskets, and the ones that were on the muskets were on the muskets, and the ones that were on the muskets were on the muskets

At one and a half miles, a cavalry of about four or five hundred people broke out from the Xia army. The entire square infantry formation also began to change to the half-moon shape.

The horse's hooves rolled, and the sound was like thunder. One mile passed by in a flash. The smoke and dust ascended to the sky, and it had reached two hundred steps.

At this time, the Xia army infantry, which had changed into a half-moon formation, began to accelerate, in a semi-encirclement shape, and followed the cavalry and quickly brought the distance to Kong Tingxun's troops.

Two hundred steps, the cavalry was very powerful. Although four or five hundred people were like a tsunami. The traitor soldiers of Zhenghongqi had already fought two battles. Someone accidentally released a gun. Suddenly, there was a crackling sound like rain to hit the banana leaves, and the musket was fired. But no one was hit, and it was all outside the range.

Kong Tingxun was furious but could not do anything, so he had to shout: "Fill in the gun, fill in the gun!"

But where did it come from?

The firearms and weapons used by the Eight Banners of the Donglu Han Dynasty are still old-fashioned things. They cannot break armor by hundreds of steps, and they are slow to fill, and it is easy to explode. It is the limit to a cup of tea that can hit two or three guns.

But when facing the cavalry charge, where can I get time to fill him with medicine?

After a round of air guns was shot, the cavalry rushed into the range, but there was no gun to release them. In the eyes of the traitor soldiers, those armed cavalry with only a pair of eyes exposed outside, and the cold and cold light shone out their hearts.

Four or five hundred cavalrymen have not yet dispersed, but they still have a tight formation. At a hundred steps, they all hold guns, grab the reins with one hand and the other, and fire-fifty steps to fire. In the smoke and fire, the shield of the traitor soldiers on the opposite side exploded, their foreheads exploded, and their brain plasma and blood spilled, and they fell down immediately.

Kong Tingxun's troops were in chaos. At this time, fifty steps passed in the blink of an eye. The cavalry put away the three-eyed gun, took off the Pu Dao with his backhand, raised it, and a sword flashed by, and the chaotic traitors' defense line was torn apart, and the armored cavalry rushed in with unstoppable force.

A traitor soldier was knocked away by an armored cavalry, and his chest collapsed in the air. He was stabbed by the soldiers behind him without falling to the ground. An armored cavalry was accidentally knocked off the horse, but he looked fine. He turned over and pulled out a short sword from his waist and killed one person. He was able to cope with one, but he could not stop it. He was as powerful as a tiger.

At this moment, Jin Sheng's voice had reached the forefront.

"Roar up! It's round!"

A battle began quickly and ended quickly. Kong Tingxun was chased by the armored cavalry and had no choice but to escape, and ended by kneeling down and begging for mercy and surrendering. More than 1,500 traitors from the Zhenghong Banner were killed, and less than 300 were captured.

"Come on the name."

Jin Sheng rode his horse and stood with a sword, looking down at Kong Tingxun kneeling on the ground, and said with disdain.

"Submitting general Kong...Kong Tingxun."

Kong Tingxun buried his head in the ground and said tremblingly.

"Kong Tingxun? I haven't heard of it." Jin Sheng said: "Do you want to die or live?"

"I want to live!"

"Then let's say it." Jin Sheng said: "Where did the main force of the Tartars run?"

Kong Tingxun did not hesitate: "On the other side of the woods."

“How long has it been?”

"In less than two minutes."

"How many people are there? Who are the troops leading?"

"Ten thousand people, all of whom are full of elite soldiers of the Eight Banners. The ones leading the troops are Shaerhuda and E Shuo."

"Ha, you will know that it is a real Tartar when you hear this name." Jin Sheng said to the left and right: "Not like this, he is a traitor."

Kong Tingxun buried his head deeper.

"Where is your target? Is it the capital?" Jin Sheng lowered his head slightly.

"...yes."

Jin Sheng nodded: "Take him with me."

He also said: "Send people into the city and, in the name of our headquarters, ask the Baodi County Master to help guard the prisoners."

At this time, Ye Bugusui reported: "My generals, brothers have already tied up the tails of the Tartars. The Tartars fled from the other side of the forest and went east."

“Going east?!”

Jin Sheng frowned and shouted, "Wang Mazi, you will take your people here to clean the battlefield. Others will follow the veterans and don't leave the main force of the Tartars!"

"Here!"

At this time, the closed east gate of Baodi County in the east opened wide. A young man wearing an official robe and a sword rode his horse, led a group of yamen runners and thousands of young and strong men to fight out.

"The Tartars are right in front, don't teach him to run away. Everyone, the Tartars are not afraid. Don't panic, don't be afraid, just stick them in. Our elite soldiers are in the south of the city and will arrive in a moment."

I have to say that the county magistrate was very brave. He found the traces of soldiers and horses, quickly closed the city gate and summoned the yamen runners. The young and middle-aged county were moved to know the truth with emotion, and after mobilization, he even broke out of the city.
