The 130,000 army was bloated, but fortunately, all the troops were commanded by their commanders. At least half a day was spent, and it was not until sunset that it was almost ready.

The man shouted and the horse was neighing, and the army started to move. This action was a blind man. He could feel it roughly, and he could not hide it or cover it up.

Huang Taiji, who was observing the Ming army's military power in the distant mountain, naturally would not turn a blind eye to the movements of the Songshan army.

Logically, he should be happy.

If the Ming army occupied the city and defended, Huang Taiji's army would have to fight, and he would have to be tragic. His strategic arrangements were nothing more than to drag the Ming army out of the city and fight in a field.

But at this time, when Huang Taiji saw the movements of the Ming army in Songshan, he was not happy.

Previously, he sent Ajige to lead his army to attack Tashan just to cut off the food route of the Ming army and retreat. He then combined with the internal forms of the Ming court to siege Jinzhou as bait, forcing the Ming army to go out of the city to fight in a field, so that he could achieve his merits in one battle.

Huang Taiji was in the Central Plains and used various means to know the situation of the Ming court. He knew that the Ming Dynasty had only one of the soldiers available now.

As long as this army is broken, the Ming court will be unable to do anything. The great country in the Central Plains is the thing in its pocket.

But he never expected that Ajige would be defeated and died!

He had tried his best to be more respectful to the ghost-like figure that suddenly appeared, but he did not expect that the man could defeat the eight thousand Ajige army with his own strength.

I didn't expect that the ghost-god who was a ghost suddenly came from Jinzhou to Tashan again!

Since Ajige was defeated, the plan to encircle Songshan was useless. In this way, the Ming army still had a retreat, and it would be difficult to destroy the Ming army in one go.

In addition, the ghost and god don’t know where they are now. If they are in the Ming army, that would be another variable.

Huang Taiji waved away the defeated soldiers of Ajige and walked back and forth several times in anger. He looked certain and shouted: "Prepare the troops and horses, and return to Jinzhou camp tomorrow morning!"

But at this moment, a soldier came to report: "Hong Chengchou led his army out of the city and had arrived at the foot of the mountain."

Huang Taiji frowned, hurried out of the tent of the chasing Luan, and brought his personal soldiers to the top of the mountain to watch. He saw cars and horses rushing down the mountain, and people shouted and neighed. There was a big crow on his head, and the word "hong" was clearly marked on it.

"It was Hong Chengchou who personally led the troops out?"

Huang Taiji observed carefully and saw that the Ming army was very close and was at the foot of the mountain. To launch an attack, only a military order was needed.

"How could Hong Chengchou have such confidence? Do you think that our Qing cavalry, like the thugs of Ming Dynasty, was about to collapse at once?" Huang Taiji was unwilling to his mind, but he thought: "Is it possible that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty issued another order to urge him? It must be like this!"

"I'm here, and Hong Chengchou has no choice. Seeing the opportunity, he thought he could take me and decide the situation."

Huang Tai smiled, picked up the whip and pointed at Ming Jun at the foot of the mountain and said, "Hong Chengchou is not wise, so he is here to die!"

All the generals and officials around agreed and said, "The emperor is here, Hong Chengchou is vulnerable."

Huang Taiji laughed loudly, but suddenly said, "There are about 50,000 soldiers and horses at the foot of this mountain. The Ming army in Songshan stationed more than 100,000 troops, where are the rest?"

At this moment, a soldier came to report: "After Hong Chengchou, two soldiers and horses left the city, one around the left and the other around the right, each with about 40,000 soldiers and horses, undoubtedly."

Huang Taiji couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "One left and one right? Could it be that I want to surround me?"

He asked again: "Who led these two soldiers?"

"The left one has the word "Wu" written on the big flag, and the right one has the word "Hu" written on the big flag."

Huang Taiji knew in his heart: "It must be Wu Sangui and Hu's great power."

He also said: "Zu Dashou of Jinzhou is Wu Sangui's uncle, and the Wu family is also a general from Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty. Some of them can do it. As for the great power of the tiger, he is also the general of a town."

Then I ordered: "Quickly investigate the movements of the two soldiers and horses, and come back to report once there is a result."

There were all the left and right generals and officials who advised him: "My cavalry of the Qing Dynasty is extremely powerful, but after all, there are few soldiers. Youdao is the son of a thousand gold medal and cannot sit in the hall. We advised the emperor to return to the Jinzhou camp immediately."

How come Huang Taiji doesn’t know?

Although the iron cavalry under his command was mighty and fierce, it was only 5,000 after all. The Ming army at the foot of the mountain was ten times more likely. If it attacked hard, it would be hard to predict whether it was a victory or defeat.

If the two Ming troops were surrounded by siege, it would be difficult.

However, Huang Taiji was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty after all, so how could he retreat at the sight of the Ming army? Isn’t this just in line with the Ming army’s wishes and reduce his morale?

So he said, "It's okay. Look at the Ming army, the marching is messy and bloated. Although there are many powerful people, what can I do to me? I have a cavalry, come whenever I want, and leave whenever I want, and just want to see what the Ming army can do."

All the generals and officials were convinced, but they said that the dragon's mighty power was indeed the true emperor.

So everyone was very calm and looked at the Ming army at the foot of the mountain, just like grass, and didn't take it seriously.

However, even though Huang Taiji said that, how could he not be worried and suspicious? But even if he wanted to retreat, he had to retreat with the emperor's demeanor, so that he could be in line with his identity.

While making big talk, he ordered the messengers to go to the rear to send a message to Jiergalang, so that he could respond on time. He still ordered his generals to be prepared to evacuate at any time.

...

Hong Chengchou ordered his generals to follow his own flag and lead the army out of the city first, so that he could approach Huang Taiji's personal soldiers at the foot of the mountain and prepare for combat at any time.

Then Wu Sangui, Hu Dawei, led his troops and generals to leave the city as planned.

Hong Chengchou asked him to call Zhao Yu.

A moment later, Zhao Yu came to the side hall.

Hong Chengchou said: "This governor is ready."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Yu said, "Then let's do it!"

Hong Chengchou hurriedly said, "Sir Zhao are at ease. I received the message that Huang Taiji had learned from the defeated troops of Ajige that the heroes had defeated ten thousand troops. I must be afraid. I have sent a large army out of the city and approached the hill where Huang Taiji was and restrained him. However, if it is tonight, tonight, and tomorrow morning, Huang Taiji will withdraw."

Zhao Yu couldn't help but be anxious: "In this way, I have to do it early!"

Hong Chengchou said: "If Huang Taiji defends his life, it is not easy to break him. It is better to wait for Huang Taiji to retreat and attack halfway. At that time, the Tatar cavalry stretched the line and it would be much easier for the heroes to kill him."

When Zhao Yu heard this, he could guess Hong Chengchou's plan in his heart, but he didn't think it was offensive. As Hong Chengchou said, it would be much easier for the cavalry to lengthen the line and kill the generals and seize the flag.

So he said, "Well, just follow the commander to the supervisor."

Hong Chengchou was happy and smiled and said, "It's better to have a full meal and nourish your energy. At night, he happened to have a surgery with Huang Taiji."

Zhao Yu nodded: "It's good."

Although Hong Chengchou is a civil servant, he is good at fighting. His grasp of the fighter has his own unique features. While accompanying Zhao Yu to eat and drink, he is evaluating the journey of Wu Sangui and the powerful army.

I was secretly waiting for the scout to report.

At the end of the day, when I was full of wine and food, I came with me. After a few words, Hong Chengchou looked certain and whispered: "The message sent the army to attack the mountain."

Zhao Yu wiped the corner of his mouth, and the meal was very happy. A fat sheep was completely relieved and refreshed. His ears were extraordinary, and even the whispers in person could hear clearly.

It was clear that it was the great power of the tiger. Wu Sangui's army was halfway through the journey to reach the ground in Jinzhou.

From Songshan to Jinzhou, it is only a few dozen miles away. The two armies set off at sunset, and it has been two hours now. It is common sense that the journey is halfway.

Even if the elite soldiers are not hungry and have strength, they will definitely not be a problem to walk thirty miles in two hours. Moreover, Songshan is only about fifty miles away from Jinzhou.

It was also because the Ming army had been corrupt for a long time, otherwise it would have been staggering to rush from Songshan to Jinzhou in two hours.

Hong Chengchou issued an order and turned around and smiled, "The deployment of our army is appropriate. This governor has ordered the army to attack the mountain, so Huang Taiji will definitely not fight hard and will withdraw. Although he is a slave chief, he has some identity at least. How dare he stay in a place of crisis?"

Then he stood up and bowed: "Sir Zhao, the head of the slave chief is right in front of him. My life and life are all on the hero!"

Zhao Yu slowly stood up: "The supervisor is so serious. If you talk about military strategies, I don't understand. I will only take the head of Huang Taiji. I have agreed to the promise to wait for the supervisor's orders, and the supervisor will be in the district."

Hong Chengchou felt very calm.

So he waved his sleeves: "Please go and see the miserable slave chief together."

"It's what I wish!"

Hong Chengchou asked Zhao Yu to wait for a moment. After a while, he was dressed in a general, wearing a red tassel helmet, a big red battle robe, and a sword hanging on his waist. He took the tiger's steps and came closer.

Zhao Yu looked at it and said intimidatingly that he was about to leave.

Hong Chengchou said: "On the battlefield, there is no eyebrow for swords. Why don't a hero wear armor?"

Zhao Yu shook his head, "Not only do not wear armor, but also ride a horse."

He said: "I am covered with copper and iron bones, and I am not afraid of swords and guns. My iron cone is too heavy, so where can I hold the horses? Fortunately, I have extraordinary feet and are not inferior to those of the horses, so there is no need to worry about the supervisor."

Hong Chengchou couldn't help but be stunned, and also remembered the large iron cone weighing 550 kilograms. He was speechless for a moment and had to nod: "If a hero has something to do, he can speak."

Zhao Yu nodded.

So he and Hong Chengchou and his personal soldiers came to the mansion.

Zhao Yuxin walked to the cart, reached out to hold the tapered handle as thick as a bowl, and fluttered like a straw. He picked up the iron cone and carried it on his shoulder: "Supervisor, please."

A look of surprise flashed in Hong Chengchou's eyes.

The personal soldiers around him shouted secretly.

This iron cone has been here for more than half a day. Someone doesn't believe that evil has tried it. It is true, not false, or just a piece of iron sheet. It is heavy, and three or five people can only lift it up at the same time. The hero in front of him is indeed a heavenly soldier and general. He lifted the iron cone as simple as eating and drinking water.

So I left the mansion.

Hong Chengchou and his personal soldiers both got on the horse, while Zhao Yu carried the iron cone and walked leisurely in the courtyard. Even if the war horse ran, he would not leave a step.
