Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Zicheng has already given birth to the idea of ??withdrawing troops, not from Shanhaiguan, but from the whole of Beizhili.

    Shortage of food!

    Even if the Manchus could be repelled in this battle, Li Zicheng would be completely out of food.  Once the food is cut off, not only the army will fry the pot, but most of the people in Beijing will starve to death. What's the point of being an emperor like this?

    It's better to withdraw from the vortex of Beizhili, take the army to other places to get food, and come back when the food is sufficient.

    Even if you want to retreat, you have to kill the Manchu and Qing cavalry in the pass, otherwise it is very likely to retreat until the whole army collapses.

    When Hauge and Dorgon came again with cavalry, Li Zicheng also brought cavalry to fight, but this time the equipment of Dashun cavalry changed.

    Do not carry bows and arrows, especially quiver, a few quiver are heavy.

    The inner armor is also taken off, and only the cotton armor for defending bows and arrows is worn, and even the armor piece in the cotton armor is also removed.

    Everything is just to reduce the burden on the cavalry.

    The surviving child army also has this set of equipment.

    Dashun Xiaoqi and Dashun Boyer Army, there are only 10,000 people left in total.

    Hauge and Dorgon still wanted to play routines, but they were scattered into countless cavalry and shooting, and the formation was so scattered that it was outrageous.

    The Dashun cavalry didn't care about anything, they even threw their bows and arrows at Shanhaiguan. Under the leadership of Li Zicheng, they divided into several groups and charged directly against the rain of arrows.

    It is life for life. After the Dashun cavalry lost weight, they were able to quickly catch up with the Manchu Qing cavalry who armored the key parts of the horse.

    This time it was Hauge and Dorgon was beaten. Because the formation of the Manchu and Qing cavalry was too scattered, after the cavalry of the two sides fought, a Manchu and Qing cavalry was often besieged and killed by several Dashun cavalry.

    Of course, the Dashun cavalry is not having a good time either. The enemies in each unit are scattered and few, and they have to find another unit after killing them.  And in the process of chasing, he will be shot and killed by the rain of arrows.

    The whole battle process can be simply divided into two links¡ª¡ª

    The Dashun cavalry pursued and was shot dead by the Manchu cavalry.

    The Dashun cavalry caught up and killed the Manchu cavalry.

    After some fighting, Dorgon and Haoge couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately ordered the cavalry to assemble.

    After the assembly was completed, Li Zicheng did not dare to charge again.

    Because they can't rush, the Manchu and Qing cavalry are better equipped and have the advantage of bows and arrows. Once assembled, they can hang and beat the Dashun cavalry after weight loss.

    Li Zicheng directly ordered the withdrawal of the troops. They are riding fast now, and the Manchu cavalry cannot catch up.

    In this battle, the two sides each suffered more than a thousand casualties, almost a one-to-one record.

    Huang Taiji was outside Shanhaiguan, still bombarding frantically, and ordered the Han army flag to attack the city after the bombardment.

    In the afternoon, the cavalry fought again.

    This time Li Zicheng brought a bow and arrow, and both sides used traditional cavalry tactics.

    Fighting and fighting, Hauge and Dorgon played tricks again, Li Zicheng ordered the whole army to throw away their quiver, and they didn't wear the inner armor and cotton armor at all.

    ?It was life for life again, the Manchu cavalry dared not play anymore, and regrouped to fight, Li Zicheng once again withdrew to Shanhaiguan.

    Dorgon and Hauge were really scared of being beaten!

    Twenty thousand cavalry rushed across the Great Wall, and after several cavalry battles, only 14,000 were killed.  Although Li Zicheng's cavalry died more, how many Manchu warriors were there in total?

    In the next three days, although the Manchu and Qing cavalry would come over, they did not dare to approach Shanhaiguan, for fear that Li Zicheng would catch up and risk their lives.

    In fact, the Manchu and Qing cavalry can slightly adjust their tactics to break Li Zicheng's style of play, and exchange lives with Li Zicheng with equipment advantages-although it is still a change of lives.

    That night, in the name of discussing military affairs, Li Zicheng trapped and killed Ma Ke, who was thinking about surrendering.

    Then in the middle of the night, they took Dashun's elite and quickly withdrew from Shanhaiguan. Except for the grain workers (there was not much food left), the rest of the troops were left behind.

    The next day, when they met the Manchu cavalry, the infantry retreated cautiously. Li Zicheng personally led the cavalry and went to expel Dorgon and Hauge.

    After bypassing Funing, because there were no enemies ahead, and because Li Zicheng abandoned Shanhaiguan, the elite of the Dashun Army began to decay like a cliff.  Especially those old thieves, they knew that Shanhaiguan was lost, and Beijing would definitely not be able to defend it, so they looted along the way, and even insulted women to vent their desires.

    Li Zicheng turned a blind eye to this, and the Dashun Army, who had committed no offense in the autumn, became a traditional rogue once again

    Niu Jinxing, who stayed behind in Beijing, had received the news in advance and quickly organized the delivery of goods.

    Li Zicheng didn't dare to go to Shandong. Even if Shandong was captured, he was afraid of being flanked by the Man Qing and Zhao Han.  He wants to retreat to Shanxi, and then take Shaanxi, maybe it is still possibleIndeed, Zhao Han did not dare to send troops to Shandong, but set up checkpoints to block the people going south.

    Facing the terrible plague, all military plans had to be scrapped.

    Swallowing Shandong at this time is purely courting death. Even if he hadn't fought Zhang Xianzhong, Zhao Han would not take risks in Shandong.

    When the team reached the boundary of Yutai County, what Sun Chuanting was worried about happened.

    One family member was infected with smallpox, and two cavalrymen were infected with plague. Wang Tingchen and Cao Bianjiao responded quickly.

    The family members disembarked, the cavalry left, and they were thrown two bags of miscellaneous grains to fend for themselves.

    Arriving at the boundary of Pei County, the number of people infected with the plague had increased to double digits, and the entire team was in panic.

    But apart from abandoning the sick, they have nothing to do, and they don't even dare to leave alone.

    The team finally arrived in Xuzhou, but was blocked on the other side of the Huaihe River and was not allowed to come over.

    Every day, Datong soldiers patrol the river by rowing boats, and drive back those who try to cross the river.  This is extremely inhumane, but it is necessary. The plague must not be allowed to spread southward.

    "I have an idea, maybe I can try it." Sun Chuanting said.

    Cao Bianjiao asked: "Is there any way?"

    Sun Chuanting finally told the truth: "We have a prince on board, we will see if the other side will let him go."

    Two merchant ships sailed to the center of the river, and soon the Datong Army came by boat.

    The soldiers raised their guns and shouted: "Go back immediately, if you dare to cross the river again, the artillery on the bank will serve you!"

    Concubine Tian Gui hugged her feverish young son, knelt on the deck and said loudly: "The imperial concubine Tian of the Ming Dynasty, together with the prince, ask the King of Wu to take him in!"

    The soldiers did not dare to neglect, and went back to report to the superior.

    After discussing with Xuzhou Zhizhou, Fei Ruhe agreed to let these people cross the river, but they had to be quarantined separately by the river for one month.

    Not only Concubine Tian Gui, but also the rest of the smuggled people are treated in the same way.

    There are always people taking advantage of loopholes to sneak across the border, can they all go back?  Some of Zhao Han's sites are not blocked by rivers, so it is easier for people to run over.

    The boundaries of the jurisdiction, counties, villages and towns, grassroots officials and farmers' associations have already started functioning.

    ? Mobilize the people to defend in groups. Once strangers enter the village, they are immediately driven to the outermost part of the village, and these people are ordered to be isolated for at least one month.

    Waiting for a month before they get sick, they are asked to boil their clothes in boiling water, and they have to wash their whole bodies several times before they can be allowed to take refuge in the village.

    Shandong has already exploded, and Northern Zhili is about to explode. After the Manchus enter the customs, they will find that they have come to a land of plague.

    (Third watch is late but arrived, please ask for a monthly ticket.)
