Chapter 10: War breaks out (IV)

Wu Sangui was not good at tracking, so the important task of chasing Dorgon naturally fell into the hands of Na Ge. Dorgon's five thousand troops were almost wiped out, and the Later Jin Dynasty would definitely not give up. Therefore, Langsu led the remaining soldiers to return to Chahanhot immediately, and Wu Sangui also led the remaining thousand Guanning Iron Cavalry to return together. Next, a war between the Later Jin and Chahar Mongolia was probably going to break out. Although he was not sure whether he would participate, he had to ensure the safety of Concubine Kang. Therefore, before the war broke out, he had to take Taisong out and send it back to the Ming Dynasty safely.

Although Dorgon escaped, his less than 300 wounded soldiers were no longer important to the battle situation in Qingcheng. Qingcheng is now surrounded by iron walls. In the past, he could only die. Maybe he kept going west and might have a glimmer of life!

Wu Sangui ordered people to pass the news of Dorgon's escape to Mangui, who led the Guanning Iron Cavalry out of the pass, and told him to block Dorgon's way into Qingcheng. As long as Dorgon could not enter Qingcheng, without the help of this peerless general, Bai Yantaiji could not defend Qingcheng at all, and Dorgon had over 10,000 Iron Cavalry at the top!

Another thing is that Oboi, who was cut off the rear, was seriously injured and captured alive. Seeing Dorgon breaking out, the task of cutting off the rear was almost completed, and the people around him were almost dead. Therefore, there was nowhere to know where he had a hint of urgency, and he was desperately killed by Yegu and pretended to be dead.

Originally, Oboi's plan was that even if Yegu didn't believe that he was dead and he would make up for another blow, he could take the opportunity to attack and threaten Yegu to break through. However, Yegu was arrogant and believed that his sword could be fatal. In addition, he was exhausted. The Mongols always respected heroes. Oboi was considered a hero at night, so he did not come forward to take his head, but instead ordered people to bury him alone.

Originally, Oboi might have escaped by pretending to die, but he was not lucky. When he met Yan Peiwei, Yan Peiwei was cautious. When he heard that Yegu said that the general of the Later Jin Dynasty was the one who died, he naturally wanted to come and see. Moreover, he had been paying attention to Oboi for a long time. He wanted to gradually see what a powerful general of the Later Jin Dynasty would look like?

As a result, Oboi was discovered and disguised by Yan Peiwei and was captured alive in an instant.

Obai pretended to be dead and was captured alive by Yan Peiwei, which made Yegu blush on the spot. Yan Peiwei found out that he was captured. Yegu was embarrassed to ask Yan Peiwei for someone, so he had to knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. The military achievements he got flew away like this. Yegu almost ran away and did not kill all the prisoners of the Later Jin soldiers.

Of course, if it is really reasonable, Yan Peiwei really cannot take Obai away. After all, he was captured from Yegu's people. Yegu may not find the illusion of Obai pretending to be dead, but the cautious brother may not be able to hide it. Yan Peiwei took a chance and picked up a bargain. Because Wu Sangui did not participate in the pursuit of Dorgon, it was equivalent to not competing for the win or loss with him, but whether he could win was up to him. If the brother couldn't catch him or not killed Dorgon, he would be unreproached Wu Sangui. No matter what, the brother would bear the love of Wu Sangui and sent Obai out with the flow.

Wu Sangui didn't care about the winner and lose. Even if he lost, it was not a bad thing for the Ming Dynasty. As for the 100,000 taels of gold in the bet, this was simply the compensation for the Ming Dynasty to Chahar Mongolia after the war. The current and future payments are the same.

Of course, this time the military achievements were quite good. However, in front of Lin Danhan, no matter how much military achievements he made, it was just a reward from outside. Therefore, it didn't matter even if Langsu attributed all his military achievements to him alone.

Wu Sangui's purpose of returning to Chahanhot again was to take Kang Fei Taisong away from Chahar Mongolia and return to the Ming Dynasty.

Time is tight, and Lin Danhan did not deliberately keep trouble because he knew that Huang Taiji might personally lead a large army to retaliate. If Taisong stays in Chahar Mongolia, Lin Danhan will be unable to support him at that time, so Taisong will soon be allowed to leave Chahanhot.

Obai, a prisoner of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, also set off from Chahanhaote and returned to the Ming Dynasty.

Elinchen received support from the Northwest Military Region of the Ming Dynasty. He defeated Bai Yantaiji step by step, and tens of thousands of troops retreated to the city of Qingcheng.

At this time, Man Gui led the Guanning Iron Cavalry out of the Pass. Although Bai Yantaiji was always prepared for the Ming Dynasty, most of his troops were transferred to the opponent's Elinchen's army. Therefore, Man Gui had almost no decent resistance and came to Qingcheng!

This is the first time that the Ming army has seen this famous city outside the Great Wall. It is indeed blue bricks and tiles, standing majestic, and it deserves the reputation of "Qingcheng"!

The Iron Cavalry of Guanning suddenly came out of the pass, and the world was shocked. The Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty did not expect that the Ming Dynasty would take the initiative to send troops to help E Linchen, and the general who led the army was Man Gui, which shocked the Jin court even more.

Huang Taiji was aware that Dorgon might have been in danger of going there, so he made a quick decision and announced his oath to personally conquer Chahar Mongolia. The Eight Banners of Mongolia were 40,000 Iron Cavalry, the Iron Armored Army, and surrendered to the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Eight Banners of Han, and the Eight Banners of Korea, and the Eight Banners of Korea, a total of 160,000 troops, claiming to be 200,000, and they rushed to Chahar Mongolia.

At the critical moment of life and death, Lin Danhan was not a weak person. Although his military strength was not as strong as Huang Taiji, he quickly gathered 150,000 Mongolian cavalry at the command, and six elite cavalry directly under the central army, and ninety thousand households of the other affiliated households, also known as the "two hundred thousand" to meet them!

A war between Chahar Mongolia and the Later Jin Dynasty is bound to break out inevitably!

When Man Gui received a secret report from Wu Sangui, he immediately sent more than a dozen teams to search and intercept all roads from the direction of Ulanqab.

There was a blockage in front and a pursuer behind. After avoiding several Guanning Iron Cavalry search teams sent by Mangui, Dorgon felt something was wrong. The brother who was chasing him closely behind was understandable. Why are there so many Guanning Iron Cavalry near Qingcheng? If one or two of them would not arouse Dorgon's suspicion, after all, Wu Sangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry under Wu Sangui also has a share in chasing him.

However, the Guanning Iron Cavalry he encountered was obviously different from the Guanning Iron Cavalry under Wu Sangui. They seemed to come from Qingcheng, rather than staring at the back of their butt.

An extremely bad premonition emerged from Dorgon's heart, and the Guanning Iron Cavalry came out of the pass! And it was not Shanhaiguan, but Datongguan.

Is Bai Yantai finished his luck? Thinking of this, the wise Dorgon felt a little numb in his scalp. It was impossible to calculate the Ming Dynasty to take the initiative to send troops to Mongolia. Is this the Ming Dynasty, which has always been a ritual country?

There was a tiger in front and a wolf behind. Dorgon found himself in desperate situation!

what to do?

Dorgon was extremely anxious. He must not fall into the hands of that brother. Lin Danhan and Huang Taiji had a deep grudge. If it fell into his hands, he might be worse than death. However, if it fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, there might not be a good life. There were only two or three hundred people who broke through, dozens of seriously injured, others were more or less injured, and more than a dozen people were separated from the middle. In addition, he sent several teams of suspicious soldiers, and there were only less than a hundred people left by Dorgon.

What can a hundred people who are tired and hungry with injuries and are tired and hungry to do?

"Fourteen Bells, a team of Guanning Iron Cavalry was found on the edge of the woods in front of them, with about fifty people!" Dorgon was thinking about how he could get rid of the predicament in front of him, but he didn't expect that a report would interrupt his thinking and had to get up again to find a safe place to live.

Going up the mountain and lying into the forest, the war horses had become a burden at this time. As a last resort, Dorgon had to order the killing and take some horse meat with him, and buried the rest on the spot!

Daqing Mountain belongs to the middle of the Yinshan Mountains, creating many longitudinal mountain peaks. In the territory, the main peaks from west to east are Jiufeng Mountain, Jinmidian Mountain, Panlong Mountain, Hutou Mountain, etc., and the southeast is Manhan Mountain.

Thousands of thousands of people may not be able to hide their whereabouts, but it is really difficult to find him by throwing a hundred people into this vast mountain. Therefore, Dorgon still has a glimmer of life. As long as he can escape the search of Guanning Iron Cavalry sent by Na Ge and Mangui, over time, he will inevitably relax. It is still possible to return to the Later Jin safely.

That brother must capture Dorgon alive. This is a bet between him and Wu Sangui, and it also affects the face of Chahar Mongolia. How did Mangui focus on dealing with Bai Yantaiji in Qingcheng? He didn't care much about whether he could capture Dorgon, or when necessary, he was willing to open a hole and let Dorgon enter Qingcheng!

Wu Sangui didn't think of anything. His mission was to prevent Dorgon from taking the 5,000-Eight Banner Iron Cavalry into Qingcheng. It would be better if he could capture Dorgon alive. If he couldn't catch him, he could not join Huang Taiji. Without Dorgon, Huang Taiji would be like cutting off half of his arm, and his purpose was to think that Lin Danhan would not be defeated too miserably in the early stage.

Another task is to protect the safety of Concubine Kang Taisong. As long as Concubine Kang safely enters the territory of the Ming Dynasty, he can free up his hands to do a big battle in the Mongolian grassland.

In the Shunyi Prince's Mansion, Bai Yantaiji summoned his confidant generals to discuss matters. The hall of the meeting was dull. Tens of thousands of troops were defeated by Elinchen and retreated continuously. Now there was only one Qingcheng left. Outside Qingcheng, a larger enemy came - the Guanning Iron Cavalry of the Ming Dynasty.

"Everyone, the Ming Dynasty has given us Ji the ultimatum. He handed over the golden seal of King Shunyi within three days and led his troops out of the city to surrender. Otherwise, the day when the city was broken would be our deathbed!" Bai Yantai Ji was exhausted and seemed to have been aging for decades.

The Maidali Living Buddha was sitting in the list, which was related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people in Qingcheng. As the supreme leader of the Gelug Sect in Tibetan Buddhism in Mongolia, the Maidali Living Buddha naturally had the right to participate and decide the future of the entire city.

"The Ming Dynasty also bullies people too much. This is a matter between us Mongolians. Why should he intervene?" Bai Yantaiji's general stood up angrily and said.

"We all saw with our own eyes that Bu Shitu Jinong entrusted all the matter to Lord Bai Yantaiji before his death. Although Elin Chen is the son of Bu Shitu Jinong, he should also respect Bu Shitu Jinong's will. As a minister, he is the best. This is a rebellion. The Ming Dynasty did not distinguish between right and wrong and even launched an army to attack. It is simply too much to deceive others!" Bai Yantaiji's right-hand man Mengtuobeile of Halashen's troops cursed angrily.

Many tribal leaders who did not willingly surrender to Bai Yan cursed in their hearts. If Bai Yan hadn't surrendered to Huang Taiji, how could the Ming Dynasty treat you like this? It's so shameless to drag us into the water!

Seeing that his subordinates were disagreeing, Bai Yantaiji put his hands together at the Living Buddha Maidali and said devoutly: "I would like to ask Lord Living Buddha to give me some advice!"

The Living Buddha of Maidali was a squat in Qingcheng and became the highest leader of Tibetan Buddhism. The Living Buddha of Maidali was born in Mongolian and was also the only Mongolian among the Dalai Lamas. He is also a descendant of Altan Khan. Although he has passed away, the Living Buddha of Maidali still respects Altan Khan's descendants very much. Now Elinchen is slogan of avenging his father and regaining his ancestors' foundation. Although he is a little skeptical, he is still a little shaken about Bai Yan, especially Bai Yan has always coveted the throne of King Shunyi. This is understandable, but now that such a thing happens, it is worth doubting Bai Yan's purpose.
