Since everyone wanted to withdraw their troops, Ben Khan obeyed everyone's wishes and agreed to withdraw his troops and not engage in a stalemate with the tiger bandits here. ” Huang Taiji showed his attitude of obeying public opinion.
Even though everyone knew that it was his attitude to withdraw, he still showed that he was not arbitrary.
"Where are you going to retreat to?" Dai Shan asked Xiang Huang Taiji.
Since we are retreating, we naturally have to have a retreat direction.
Huang Taiji thought for a moment and said: "We have come here all the way from Liaodong. We can't go back empty-handed. I think that since the tiger-character flag is difficult to deal with, let's deal with the people who are easy to deal with. Let's go to Jizhen Entering the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty."
After the words fell, Zuo Ling and the others below began to discuss among themselves.
Daishan looked at Huang Taiji thoughtfully.
He thought of a possibility. Huang Taiji's thousands-mile raid was probably just to plunder the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty. As for finding the tiger-shaped flag to avenge Azig, it was just an excuse.
The goal from the beginning was Ming Dynasty.
"Going to Ji Town?" Amin's eyes lit up as he sat on the other side.
Ji Town is guarded by the Ming army, which is much easier to deal with than the Tiger Banner. Moreover, once they enter the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, even if they do not need to go deep, just looting near Ji Town is enough to recover the losses of this troop dispatch.
Capturing more Mingren slaves and bringing them back would provide some compensation for him and Xianglan Qi.
Huang Taiji nodded to Amin and said, "Yes, let's go to Ji Town. Originally, I wanted to occupy Qingcheng, get rid of the tigers and thieves here, and then enter the Ming Dynasty from Xuanda. In this way, unless the two join forces, Otherwise, no matter which side we deal with, the other side will either stand by and watch, or add insult to injury, and in the end we will benefit."
"When are you leaving?" Amin asked eagerly.
He couldn't take advantage of Hu Ziqi, and he didn't want to stay here at all.
Huang Taiji said: "The faster, the better. There is not much food and grass in the army. If you waste one more day, the army will consume one more day. The food and grass need to be replenished in the Ming Dynasty."
"I agree with the Great Khan's idea." Daishan said, "When we go to Ji Town, the two red flags are willing to be the vanguard of the army and march to the Ming army in Ji Town first."
Amin, who was sitting aside, saw Daishan volunteering to be the vanguard, and hurriedly said: "The blue flag can also be the vanguard. It is better to keep the two red flags to cut off the rear. In case the tiger thief insists on clinging to it, the strength of the two red flags has not been lost." Just in time to stop tiger thieves."
Entering Ji Town first is equivalent to looting Ji Town before others. As long as they don't go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and only loot around Ji Town, in his opinion, there won't be much danger.
[To be honest, I have been using @ recently.
, the true blue flag with the blue flag inlaid along with the two yellow flags broke out of the camp, leaving the two red flags behind. "
"I will obey the Khan's orders."
Everyone in the tent bowed and saluted, even Daishan and Amin who were sitting in their seats bowed slightly.
When everyone in the tent had almost left, Dai Shan asked Xiang Huang Taiji, "What are the arrangements for the Mongols?"
Although the Mongols followed Huang Taiji to the west, they were still nominally allies of Dai Jin, not subordinates.
Huang Taiji said: "Manggus took some Mongolian soldiers to leave first with Dorgon and the two white flags, and the remaining Mongolian soldiers left with the two yellow flags. As for leaving the rest of the matter to the Mongolian soldiers, I don't worry. If the second brother wants to I don’t have any problem with leaving some Mongolian soldiers to kill the rear together, but I need my second brother to talk to Mangus.”
"No, if the tiger thieves really want to come after them, it doesn't matter whether they have Mongolian soldiers or not. If they don't come after them, these Mongolian soldiers won't be needed." Dai Shan refused and left the Mongolian soldiers to accompany the two red flags to cut off the rear.
As soon as the banner leaders came back, they began to make arrangements for moving out of camp.
The lower collar and left collar were all busy.
Although the two white flags and the two blue flags caused many casualties, there were not many actual injuries, and a lot of work was saved. The few injured people under the two white flags were also handed over to other flags to take care of them.
It happened that Zhenglan Banner and Xianglan Banner also had some injured, so Huang Taiji placed these injured flag soldiers together to take care of them.
As soon as Huang Taiji withdrew his troops, he naturally couldn't hide it from Tiger Flag.
When Dorgon left with the two white flags, the sentries on the Tiger Flag side immediately sent back the news that the slave thieves had withdrawn.
Zhang Hong finally decided not to send troops to pursue him.
Although Huang Taiji could not lose anyone in the previous battle, his strength was still there, and he had an advantage over the Tiger Banner in terms of military strength. He had a large number of Mongolian cavalry.
Once pursued, the Tiger Banner is likely to fall into a passive position, especially the dragoon divisions and combat divisions, which are not suitable for large-scale pursuits at all. Moreover, the Tiger Banner has a relatively small number of cavalry, and the Chahar Department has no hope of doing so. Not on.
Another day passed, and the sentry rider sent the latest news from Huang Taiji.
"Shi Zheng, do you want to pursue me?" Gao Zhongyun looked at Zhang Hong.
Zhang Hong is the commander-in-chief of the army, and Zhang Hong needs to make the final decision on all military operations.
"What's going on with Hutuktu Khan?" Zhang Hong asked about the situation with the Chahar tribe.
After hearing this, Gao Zhongyun asked in confusion: "What do you mean? Are you expecting the Great Khan to take action?"
"What's wrong?" Zhang Hong said, "If Huang Taiji's soldiers and horses were all here, the Great Khan would definitely not have the courage to take action. But it's different now. Huang Taiji has left with most of his soldiers and horses, leaving only With Daishan’s two red flags, maybe the Great Khan can’t help but take action.”
Gao Zhongyun pursed his lips and shook his head, saying: "I'm not optimistic about the Great Khan, not to mention that the distance between Daishan's two red flags and the army taken away by Huang Taiji is less than a day's journey. Once action is taken, Huang Taiji can lead an army to support Daishan at any time. good."
"This day's journey is our opportunity." The corners of Zhang Hong's mouth raised slightly.
