There is an army of nearly 10,000 people lying across the city of Xishan and Ningyuan. This army is called Tianzhu Army. It belongs to the Eight Banners Han Army and is under the Xianglan Banner. The commander is King Zhishun, one of the three kings of the Qing Dynasty, Shang Kexi.
Shang Kexi is forty years old this year, and it has been ten years since he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. During this period, he followed Huang Taiji to conquer Korea and made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty. Especially two years ago, during the Songjin War and the siege of Songshan, Xingshan made great achievements.
In the blink of an eye in ten years, things have changed and people have changed. Shang Ke is happy that he has long lost any feelings for his homeland towards the Ming Dynasty, and has unknowingly become the executioner of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The drums in Ningyuan City continued to beat loudly, but no other movements were seen. This abnormal move made Dorgon and others puzzled, but they were also suspicious. They didn't know what Wu Sangui was doing.
He ordered Shang Kexi to keep a close eye on the movements of the officers and soldiers in the city, and at the same time ordered Nikan to speed up the attack on the mountain.
Nikan also wanted to go fast, but the mountain road was rugged and narrow, not suitable for riding. He walked on the snow among the rocks and thorns with one foot deep and one foot shallow. After walking carefully for several miles, he looked at the scene in front of him and immediately became filled with anger and anger.
The corpses of the more than 200 Qing soldiers who had entered the mountain were piled up and down at the mouth of the valley. Some had their brains exploded by huge rocks, some had their throats pierced by sharp arrows, and some were blasted beyond recognition by muskets...
Damn Ming Gou, I swear I won’t be a human being until I kill you! Your face is livid, your fists are clenched, and you look around and see that the sides of the mountain road are steep, with messy traces and blood stains everywhere. It is obvious that this group of people has set up an ambush here before entering the valley.
The valley in front of us is wide and can accommodate several horses running parallel to each other. However, the two sides are like knives cutting each other. Looking up at the sky, they are like a thin line. If the Ming army laid an ambush on it, they would have no way in or out.
A brave person has the courage to go against the current. Knowing that there are tigers on the mountain, he would go to the Tiger Mountain, not to mention that his duty does not allow him to retreat. Nikan had a murderous intention in his heart and hated the Ming army to his bones. How could he retreat despite the difficulties? He immediately ordered his subordinates to follow On both sides of the mountain road, he was forced to climb to the top of the valley, two hundred on each side, and the rest followed him into the valley.
In a post at the top of Xiantian Valley, Hu Ling looked at the Qing troops gathering outside the mountain pass. The Qing troops all over the mountains and plains were climbing the peak in danger. A Qing army of 1,000 people in the mountain road had arrived at the entrance of the valley. They divided their forces and were climbing to the top of the valley. Another wave of troops He entered the valley with such arrogance, he was really brave.
Since entering the mountain, the young eunuch has entrusted Hu Ling with everything in the mountain, from firewood, rice, oil, and salt to security and defensive fortifications.
Chang Yu led his troops out of the mountains to ambush the Qing army. He then perfected various fortifications in the mountains, including light and dark sentries, light and dark stakes, shooting points, ambush points, rolling stones on the top of the valley, and barriers in the valley...
Previously, two hundred Qing troops entered the mountain, allowing Hu Ling to practice his skills and verify that the quality of the fortifications was indeed excellent. Not a single soldier was injured, and they were annihilated in one fell swoop, killing them all.
But now the Qing army has increased its troops, and counting the thousands of people and horses who are all over the mountains and fields at the mountain pass, the difficulty begins to increase.
However, Hu Ling was still confident enough to keep these thousands of Qing troops out of the mountains.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Qing troops who were walking wildly at the mountain pass were temporarily unable to approach, they wanted to eat the more than a thousand men and horses in the valley first. After observing for a moment, Hu Ling made a decision and immediately sent an order to the troops ambushing in the valley on the north side. Chang Feng and Wei Zhitong asked them to divide a group of troops to kill the Qing troops who were trying to climb to the top from the entrance of the valley.
At the same time, he ordered the servants led by Lao Jiu to enter the valley from Moshigou and face the enemy head-on!
The valley is flat, with messy hoof prints extending deep into the snow. When you look up, the sky is like a line, and the two walls are as sharp as a knife. It towers into the clouds, making people tremble with fear. If there is an ambush above...
Nikan led five hundred warriors, swords unsheathed and arrows cocked, and they walked vigilantly along the valley. After entering the valley for more than a hundred meters, suddenly there was a loud sound of gunfire behind them. At the top of the valley behind, it seemed that the Qing and Ming troops who had climbed up from the valley entrance were engaged.
Taking advantage of the Ming army being restrained there, they rushed into the valley. Nikan made a gesture and ordered his men to rush forward. Suddenly, there was a loud shout above his head, and boulders fell like rain, killing and injuring dozens of people in an instant. The soldiers screamed again and again, fled in panic, and hid in the recesses of the mountain walls on both sides. Although they avoided the boulders above their heads, they were inevitably injured by the jumping rocks. What was even more terrible was that the Ming troops on both sides of the valley began to cross towards the bottom. Shoot, or musket, or bow and arrow.
fight back! Fighting back, Nikan hid in the recess of the mountain wall and roared loudly, with more than ten soldiers holding him up with shields.
"Rush in, rush in..."
Yes, when faced with such a head-on attack, the best way to deal with it is to stand still and wait for death. Rushing through the ambush point is the best way to deal with it.
The panicked Qing soldiers blocked the arrows with their shields and rushed into the valley close to the recesses of the mountain wall.
A hundred meters away, Lao Jiu was holding a knife. He heard the sound getting closer and closer, and his breathing became heavy. The two hundred servants behind him were like him, staring straight ahead, nervous and expecting. There was a turning point in the valley. It feels like those Qing troops will be able to escape there in thirty steps. Once they show their heads, they will kill them...
The sound insulation effect of the cave is very good. The sound of drums in Ningyuan City is like thunder, and the sound of killing in the mountains is loud. In the cave, Chang Yu and hundreds of soldiers from the two battalions sleep in darkness, and the sound of snoring comes one after another!
They are so tired!
Only Wu Weiying was restless, hiding at the entrance of the cave and peeking out. He could vaguely hear the sound of killing, and saw only the infantry battalion in the valley in the distance sniping at the enemy, pushing stones, shooting, or drawing bows...
It's just that he hasn't seen a Qing army yet, but even so, he can feel his heart beating fast.
"Have the Tatars entered the mountains?" Suddenly a deep voice came from behind, making Wu Weiying jump with fright. He turned around and looked at Wuzhong, who frowned and looked tired.
"Not yet, not yet. Why did you wake up?".
"Can't sleep." Wu Zhong rubbed his face and was about to get out of the hole with the knife. Wu Weiying grabbed him and said, "What are you going to do?"
"My little cubs are down there killing enemies, I have to go take a look." As soon as Wu Zhong broke free, he threw Wu Weiying away and came out of the cave. However, the marquis stumbled and almost fell down. If the servants around him hadn't been sharp-eyed, he would have eaten shit like a dog.
His little cub? who? Those two wolf cubs? Wu Weiying was confused, he didn't know yet, Wuzhong offered his plan last night, and the little eunuch was overjoyed and finally nodded and gave him the servants. Now these servants are killing enemies in the mountains, Wuzhong's new official takes office, he is so excited that he can't control his emotions. Although he is extremely sleepy, he still After tossing and turning, I finally couldn't bear to get out of the cave after sleeping for a while.
However, it was said that Nikan led his troops into an ambush, and in the panic there were no casualties. The troops fled in panic. Although he rushed through the ambush point with his strong instigation, he found that there were only more than 200 people around him, and another group of people fled back to the road in panic and were captured. The Ming army split into two from the cliff.
Everyone was lucky to have narrowly escaped death, but they did not dare to be careless. They clung to the rock wall and stared at the sky above them, fearing that there would be another Ming army rockfall attack from above. They heard the sound of killing at the mouth of the valley. It seemed that there The fighting was fierce, but now there were only about two hundred people left, either retreating or advancing.
Enter! Nikan decisively ordered to continue marching into the valley. He was not acting on impulse. There were thousands of Qing troops outside the valley. They were looking for ways to climb mountains from various places. They would definitely be able to contain most of the Ming army. And his troops had previously divided their troops at the entrance of the valley to seize the valley. Yes, that's where the Ming army is strategically located. We can't afford to lose it. We should fight for our lives. This will not only contain the Ming army's strength, but also draw attention to the valley entrance.
Therefore, the mountain is empty, and this is their best chance to invade.
Entering the mountain, climbing to the top, attacking from both sides, hey hey hey.
