Chang Yu's loud voice made the city quiet for a moment, but then it became restless.
"Supervisor, Supervisor, this is a humble duty..." Two cavalrymen jumped out of the safety line and went straight to the city gate. Just as the soldiers at the top of the city were about to draw their bows, they were immediately stopped by Wu Sangui.
Sure enough, the two cavalrymen at the foot of the city were Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong, who were all weathered. They held up torches and shined their faces. Chang Yu saw clearly and opened the door with a loud roar!
The city gate opened and Chang Yu rushed down to the city. Wu Sangui and Tang Tong looked at each other in the city. What background did these two people have that made the little eunuch so excited? They looked quite big. Could it be that they were eunuchs in the palace again!
Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong, "I have met the governor in my humble position." Kuang Ren entered the city and dismounted, and when they saw Chang Yu, they quickly saluted. .
"Good guy, he's still so strong." Chang Yu went up and punched Tu Yuan directly. Tu Yuan didn't move at all, he himself almost dodges, and Wuzhong's brows suddenly narrowed behind him.
"The governor's fists are getting harder and harder. I'm afraid my subordinates will suffer internal injuries." Tu Yuan, with his rough skin and thick flesh, chuckled as he touched the place where Chang Yu punched him.
"Who did you learn that glib tone from?" Chang Yu scolded with a smile, "Is this going smoothly?"
Running thousands of miles, no matter the wind or snow, nearly three hundred horses rode non-stop day and night. The hardships can be imagined. The little eunuch was deeply moved. More importantly, Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong were his left shoulder and right arm. With people by their side, no matter how powerful the Qing army was, there was nothing to fear. As for Kuang Ren, with his sharp archers by his side, the security was even higher.
In the middle of the greetings, Wu Sangui and Tang Tong went to the city. Chang Yu introduced them, and Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong were introduced. Kuang Ren hurried to see them.
Wu and Tang were deeply surprised and curious to learn that they were the young eunuch's powerful generals and personal bodyguards.
Jia Waixiong's two hundred elite cavalry were carefully selected from the Jinwu Guards. They had performed well in the Taiyuan Battle. At this time, they were transferred to Ningyuan to fight alongside the Gongzi Camp. As soon as they entered the city, they were placed in the military camp. The little eunuch immediately ordered Kill the six injured horses of the Qing army to reward them.
This made Wu Sangui and Tang Tong sigh. Sure enough, they were direct relatives, but their treatment was different.
Kuang Ren's accompanying fifty archers were placed in the governor's mansion. They were responsible for Chang Yu's security, and they needed a good rest after a long journey.
The banquet was held again at the General Military Mansion, and hot soup and dishes were served. Tu Yuan, Jia Waixiong, and Kuang Ren devoured their food. From time to time, they chatted with the little eunuch and heard what they heard. The four of them laughed and made a fuss when it came to something interesting. Wu Sangui and Tang Tong stared at each other, completely ignored.
The little eunuch actually has such a side, fighting with his subordinates as brothers, sometimes laughing and dancing like children, but there is no majesty of the governor of Dongchang who kills without blinking an eye.
The laughter soon stopped. The person Wu Sangui sent to the beacon tower to verify the military situation had returned with news. Judging from the light of the fire, it was estimated that the Qing army should have more than 5,000 people. They were stationed at Gelizi Mountain at this time. The specific details had been sent to the spy. Go for a low-down reconnaissance.
Gelizi Mountain is located more than ten miles north of Huludao and Tashan Fort. After the Songjin War, Huang Taiji ordered the destruction of Song, Xing and Tashan Forts, otherwise the Qing army would not be able to station in the barren mountains.
Five thousand men and horses were the vanguard of the Qing army. It seemed that Dorgon was extremely cautious. The large army's baggage was blocked by wind and snow, and the situation was unclear, so he sent a vanguard to check on the spot. How could he arrive so quickly? On the ground, there is no doubt that they are cavalry.
The cavalry army of the Qing Dynasty was invincible and could conquer everything outside the pass.
Since they are pioneers, they should mainly control the current situation and understand the situation. Even if the Qing army does not pay attention to the Ming army at all, the situation is complicated at this time and they must be cautious. In addition to the long journey, Chang Yu and Wu Sangui speculated that one or two This vanguard army will not move arbitrarily in the next few days, but will send people to contact them.
I'm destined to have no sleep tonight.
Wu Sangui ordered the city to be on first-level alert, and all generals under his command were on duty. There was no room for relaxation on the city, in the military camps, or inside the city.
War horses neighed in the Qing army camp at the foot of Gelizi Mountain. The soldiers were resting. The patrol team did not dare to be careless on the three floors inside and outside. The lights were brightly lit in the big tent in the middle of the camp.
Abatai sat in the middle of the tent. Although he had the lowest title, he was the senior among the other three, not to mention that Dorgon appointed him as the leader of this group.
At this time, Hauge, Nikan and Luo Luohun were sitting on the left and right, frowning like Abatai, listening to Tan Ma's report.
The more I listen, the more confused I become.
There was indeed a battle at Shanhaiguan. The three nearby mountains knew that Gao Di had rebelled, and they defeated Wu Sangui's men and fled back to Ningyuan City.
But what is puzzling is that after a few days of investigation, the spies discovered that several consecutive waves of defeated troops retreated into Ningyuan City. How many troops did Wu Sangui have? What's the matter with Ningyuan's city walls being frozen and several trenches in the north of the city?
The only thing that made them feel at ease and proud was that the Ming army's first spies who arrived for investigation did not kill them, but at most drove them away. It seemed that Wu Sangui had given the order.
The army arrived soon after, and the situation was unclear at the moment. As a vanguard, he had to figure out the situation as quickly as possible. Wu Sangui was confused about what was true and false for a while. Abatai and others discussed and decided to send a group of troops to Ningyuan City tomorrow. Contact Wu Sangui directly to find out the truth.
Just who to send?
Hauge enthusiastically recommended himself, but Nikan refused to give in. Only Luo Luohun did not express his position, perhaps because he was the youngest and was embarrassed to compete with his two uncles.
Luo Luohun's is the second son of Yue Tuo, who is Dai Shan's eldest son.
Although Daishan was always suppressed by Huang Taiji because of his elder age, he was depressed and did nothing, but his descendants were all very promising and were famous generals with great achievements in the Manchu Dynasty.
Needless to say, the eldest son Yue Tuan died five years ago. His son Shuo Tuo was executed last year for helping Dorgon fight for the throne. The third son Saharin deserved the most respect and trust because he supported Huang Taiji and became emperor. He died of illness early in the morning. Huang Taiji mourned and took more care of his children. For example, he once wanted to vigorously cultivate his eldest son Adali, but because Saharin was too good, Huang Taiji always felt that the father of a tiger was a dog. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Adali was supported by mud. Not on the wall.
So he always reprimanded him more, which made Adali feel rebellious. In the end, the two disliked each other and became like enemies. Therefore, when Dorgon and Haoge competed for the throne, Adali was obligated to support Dorgon together with his uncle Shuo Tuo. Ergon was eventually killed together.
But Luo Luohun and his grandfather Daishan had the same goal. Although Huang Taiji suppressed him back then, he didn't want Dorgon to become emperor, so he stepped back and let Fulin take the throne.
But from Dorgon's perspective, if you don't support me, you are against me.
Therefore, although this menacing vanguard cavalry has impeccable combat power, its generals are at odds with each other and have their own agendas.
"Luo Luohun, you go tomorrow"
After much deliberation, Abatais left the opportunity to Luo Luohun, the youngest.
Nikan and Yue Tuo looked at each other and sat down with a sneer.
