A Jia Lazhangjing with a blue flag reminded him: "Dudu Beile, there are many Ming soldiers. Are you asking Prince Rui for help?"
Du Du cursed angrily: "You're a useless thing. You're just a Nangou. No matter how many you have, you can't be my rival to the Qing Dynasty Warriors!"
Even though Du Du is just a Gushan Ezhen with a blue flag and a mere Baylor, he is also from the royal family of the Qing Dynasty and is the nephew of the current emperor Huang Taiji.
Although he seemed submissive in front of his uncle Huang Taiji, Prince Li Daishan, Prince Rui Dorgon, and Prince Zheng Jierhalang, the owner of the Xianglan Banner, he was not like that in front of his subordinates. .
At this moment, he looked at the Ming army running in the distance. There were less than a thousand cavalry in front of them, galloping all the way in, bringing up billows of smoke. Behind them, two to three thousand infantry could be seen, pushing more than a hundred large and small war vehicles. Car, follow slowly.
After that came the Ming army. This time, the cavalry guarded the left and right wings. In the middle, nearly a hundred chariots drove at the head, followed by infantry. They were so majestic that they could not see the edge at a glance.
Du Du stood on a fire road pier at the top of Shuangzi Mountain, and it seemed that the entire pier was shaking with the advancement of the Ming army.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant. Not only Du Du was a little surprised, but even the Qing generals and soldiers around him looked unbelievable: "Didn't the Ming army want to cross the river to save Jinzhou? Why did they suddenly come here? La?"
According to the Qing army's intelligence reports, the Ming army had been preparing the equipment needed to cross the river for days, and was planning to forcefully cross the Nvnu River and engage in a decisive battle with the Qing army at the foot of Jinzhou City.
Therefore, most of the main force of the Qing army has withdrawn to the north bank of the Nv'er River and formed formations in the wilderness to the west and south of Jinzhou City to await the Ming army. Although the Xianglan Banner Gushan Ezhenbeile Dudu is stationed on the Twin Mountains, in fact, There was only one armored horseman, and even if some armored aha were added, the number would be less than 2,000 men and horses.
Du Du looked at the overwhelming Ming army infantry and cavalry rolling in front of him, and couldn't help but his heart was pounding. In the past, not to mention that he still had more than a thousand warriors at this moment, even if he only had a few hundred, he would dare to charge forward. Tens of thousands of Ming troops formed a large formation.
But today, for some unknown reason, Du Du only felt a chill in his vest, and a trace of fear rose in his heart!
Du Du was not sure how many men and horses there were in the Ming army's infantry and cavalry rushing in front of him.
They saw a sea of flaming red Ming army flags, and in the billowing smoke and dust behind them, Ming army infantry and cavalry continued to appear, seemingly endlessly.
Du Du shouted loudly: "En Kehun, go find out which Ming Dynasty dog general's men and horses they are!"
"嗻."
A very young Tatar officer responded loudly, turned around and hurried away.
Soon, the Ming army's infantry, cavalry and horses, which came like a tide from the opposite side, stopped in the Pingchuan wilderness next to the southeast road of Shuangzi Mountain and stopped moving forward.
Du Du raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that this Ming army had approximately over 10,000 troops. Although it was unknown which Ming general was in charge, it looked very fierce from the outside.
I don't know since when, many generals in the Qing army became much more cautious than before.
When they met the Ming army, they actually learned to calculate gains and losses, instead of charging desperately and killing without thinking, no matter whether they were outnumbered or not, as before.
Du Du first ordered the Jia La Zhang Jing Kun Qiang around him to lead several Niulu down the mountain to clean up the troops and prepare for battle. After Enkehun Niulu returned from the investigation, he would then attack according to the order.
Du Du was born in the Manchu royal family. His full name is Aixinjueluo Dudu. He is the grandson of Nurhaci, the old slave of Jianzhou. His father is Guanglue Baylor Chuying, the eldest son of Nurhaci.
He was awarded the title of Tai Ji when he first joined the army, and was named Baylor as early as the fourth year of the Apocalypse. After that, he participated in almost all wars such as the Mongolian expedition, the conquest of North Korea, and the invasion of the Ming Dynasty, and he repeatedly made military exploits. .
In the ninth year of Chongzhen, when the slave chief Huang Taiji founded the country and proclaimed himself emperor, he was only promoted to Anping Baylor. Such a title was far inferior to that of his brothers of the same generation, and even inferior to some of his nephews.
This situation made him feel very aggrieved!
Duoluo Anpingbeile, this title has become an unchanging title for Dudu since he obtained it.
Not to mention that he was already a Baylor in the fourth year of Tianqi, but in the ninth year of Chongzhen, after Du Du was named Doroan Ping Baylor, he still fought bravely and achieved countless military exploits.
But Du Du, who has repeatedly made military exploits and swore allegiance to Huang Taiji, is still not trusted or reused by Huang Taiji!
Perhaps Huang Taiji intentionally or unintentionally forgot about Du Du's military exploits, but in Du Du's own heart, there was a clear record of his personal military exploits.
Du Du felt unbearable to be left out despite having such outstanding military exploits. He once personally said the words "I don't care about being so hardworking". It can be seen that Du Du's dissatisfaction has reached a certain level.
He even believed that Yue Tuo, who was also the nephew of Huang Taiji's son, was "still the king of the county" even though he was accused of treason and had been convicted many times during his lifetime.
In particular, Yue Tuo's eldest son Luo Luohong is just a child, but he can still "attack Lord Belle"!
And Tan Tai and Tu Lai, who are ministers of the Two Yellow Banners, are able to continue to be promoted, but "people who seem to be innocent and meritorious like me" have not been given reasonable promotions. They are just bullying me. He is just the eldest son and grandson of Lao Nu.
In recent years, Du Du's resentment has become more serious, and he often speaks without restraint. Although I try my best to serve the country, "What's the use?" For example, Jierhalang just often puts the emperor in his mouth, and promises Got a prince.
He even said: "Just wait and see, I believe God will make his own decision."
From this point of view, the grievances in Du Du's heart are too deep to be resolved, and he does not compare with others, but only mentions Jilharang, which actually has profound meaning.
The crimes committed by Ji'erharang's father Shuerhaqi and brother Amin were not inferior to those of his own father Chu Ying, but Huang Taiji treated them significantly better than Du Du.
Therefore, Du Du, who was full of resentment and had no way to vent it, would naturally show it in his actions, so he did many disrespectful things that could be criticized without hesitation.
However, Huang Taiji was mostly punished with severe and light punishments, and he was always fined silver. Perhaps Huang Taiji felt that he was in the wrong, so he was given such a lenient punishment.
After all, Du Du is still his nephew, with the same royal bloodline. In fact, if Du Du was not his legitimate son and grandson, he probably wouldn't have received such attention from Huang Taiji. All of this has something to do with his eldest son, his father. But it doesn't matter much.
Du Du's father is Aixinjueluo Chuying, the first son of Nurhaci, the old slave of Jianzhou. He began to lead the army alone in the war at the age of nineteen. He was once the most outstanding one among Nurhaci's sons.
In the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, he was awarded the title "Humbatulu" and promoted to Baylor for leading the army to pacify Anchulaku.
In the Battle of Wujieyan in the thirty-fifth year of Wanli, Chu Ying took the lead bravely and made great achievements. The old slave Nurhachi was very happy about this and gave him the title of "Alhatu Tumen", that is, The meaning of resourcefulness.
After that, Chu Ying also made outstanding military achievements in a series of battles during the slave-building period such as Yihan Mountain City, and made important contributions to the old slave Nurhachi's unification of the Jurchens. He can be called an outstanding contributor to the establishment of the Later Jin Dynasty.
At the same time, because he was the eldest son of Nurhaci and had repeatedly made military exploits on the battlefield, he was appointed to take charge of state affairs at that time. At the age of only twenty-nine, he had already become the second most powerful figure in Hou Jin Dynasty.
However, Chu Ying was cruel and narrow-minded by nature, and because of his outstanding military exploits, he rose to a high position at a young age and began not to take anyone seriously. This offended the "Five Founding Ministers" of Hou Jin Dynasty, E Yidu and Fei Ying. Dong, He Heli, An Feiyanggu, Hu Erhan and even some brothers were at odds with Chu Ying.
The contradiction between the two sides gradually became clear and intensified, forcing the old slave Nurhachi to make a choice between his eldest son Chu Ying and the "five ministers" and other princes.
After repeated weighings, Nurhaci decided to alienate Chu Ying in order to win over the "five ministers" and scholars. However, Chu Ying not only failed to learn from it, but instead reflected on himself and kept secretly.
Instead, he began to be hostile to the old slave Nurhachi, and secretly made friends with his followers, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. When the old slave sent troops to fight abroad, Chu Ying came up with a plan, wrote a curse to burn to heaven and earth, and threatened: "If I am defeated, I will not let the defeated people Father and brothers enter the city."
In the end, Chu Ying was "unsatisfied, so he burned his watch and complained to heaven", so he was convicted of "juying". The old slave Nurhaci imitated the method of punishing Shuerhaqi back then, and ordered his eldest son Chu Ying to be imprisoned in Gao. within the wall.
Just two years later, Chu Ying was ordered to be executed by Nurhachi in the name of unrepentance. He was only thirty-six years old!
In fact, the reason for this incident should be found in Chu Ying himself. It was his lack of humility towards the "five ministers" who were the "pillars" and "heroes" of the founding of the state.
He also lacks the wisdom to win over many younger brothers, but just wants to take advantage of the old slave Nurhaci's lifetime to gain power first, and then gradually deprive them of their wealth and power in order to consolidate his position as prince.
It was precisely because of his foolish behavior that the older brothers and the "five ministers" felt that everyone was in danger, prompting them to unite and hold together for warmth, which in turn led to the loss of their status and lives.
"If virtue is not matched, there will be disaster." The ancients do not deceive me!
Maybe he inherited his father's good genes, but in fact, Du Du also has some shadows of Chu Ying in him, that is, he lacks a humble attitude and the wisdom to win over people's hearts.
Perhaps it was precisely because he lacked these that he was able to live a good life under Huang Taiji, instead of becoming the target of Huang Taiji's elimination because he was too sharp.
Now, although Du Du has a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, he does not dare to take it lightly when it comes to specific military affairs. After all, it may be the right way at the moment.
What he was thinking about was hoping that he would be treated fairly in the future, instead of dying at the hands of the Ming army now.
After a while, Niulu Zhangjing Enkehun rode his horse up the mountain. He turned over and dismounted in front of the fire road pier, ran all the way up, and reported: "Dudubele, the Ming army in front is Miyun Commander-in-Chief Tang Tong." soldiers and horses."
"Tang Tong?"
There was a trace of disdain on Du Du's face, and he said in a cold tone: "Tang Tong, who dares to come to Twin Mountains!"
He then shouted loudly: "Send the order, all Niulu assemble, follow Benbeile to fight, defeat the Ming army, capture and kill Ming Gou Tangtong."
"嗻."
In fact, Du Du's fear of the Ming army mainly came from Zhang Cheng's Xuanfu army and Cao Bianjiao's Qin army.
After all, Zhang Cheng was well-known. In just a few years, he successively killed Yuetuo, the first prince of Keqin County in the Qing Dynasty, and Duduo, the first prince of Yu. Both of them were famous royal generals in the Qing Dynasty, and both were granted hereditary titles. The princes who replaced him were all one of the eight iron hat kings in the early Qing Dynasty.
The achievements of the two famous kings are extremely great. Zhang Cheng's name is almost as famous as that of the famous anti-Qing general and national hero Li Dingguo in the Yongli Dynasty of the Southern Ming Dynasty. They are both people who can make the generals of the Qing army famous and frightened. They are also people who are hated by the monarchs and ministers of the Qing Dynasty. people!
But Du Du didn't actually fight against Zhang Cheng's Xuanfu army, but "the name of a person is like the shadow of a tree". After all, Zhang Cheng had a good reputation, and Du Du didn't do it when he killed the slave king in the two battles. In the frontline army.
Especially this time, Duduo, Prince of Yu of the Qing Dynasty, was shot to death by the Xuanfu army in the formation of his home decorated with white flags. Even his body was taken away by Zhang Cheng's men and became a prop for him to receive merit and rewards.
Therefore, everyone in the Qing army now knows Zhang Cheng, and everyone has a little fear of the Xuanfu army in their hearts. Even a few people, such as Dorgon, may hate Zhang Cheng more than fear them. , but they don’t dare to despise it anymore.
Although Du Du had heard of Cao Bianjiao before, he didn't have much impression. In fact, most of the princes and beile in the Qing army were like this, and they were only familiar with the generals of the Ming army in Liaodong.
For the generals of the Ming army outside Liaodong, most of them only know their names. Even the fierce generals of the Ming Dynasty such as Cao Bianjiao can make the domestic bandits frightened, but in the eyes of the slaves and thieves, they are nothing.
However, this time the battle of Shimen Mountain allowed these self-righteous and arrogant Tatars to see the power and ferocity of the real Ming Dynasty generals.
On that day, Cao Bianjiao at the foot of Rufeng Mountain with more than 2,000 Ming cavalry rushed straight into Prince Rui Dorgon's army station and killed a man who passed through the camp. Unexpectedly, no one could stop him. On the contrary, he also killed countless generals. In the end, he could only Watching Cao Bianjiao retreat with his entire army.
This battle made Cao Bianjiao's name famous among the generals of the Qing army. This battle further solidified Cao Bianjiao's reputation as a fierce general. From then on, Cao Huhu's name not only frightened the thieves, but also the slaves. The thief dare not underestimate him anymore.
But now, Du Du heard that the person who came was neither Zhang Cheng, nor Cao Bianjiao, nor even Wu Sangui, but a mere Tang Tong, and he didn't take it seriously.
It can be seen that after this battle of Jinzhou, the slave thieves changed their previous attitude of being extremely contemptuous and even contemptuous of the Ming army, and they indeed paid more attention to the Ming army than before.
But it is only limited to those who are particularly capable of fighting. As for the other Ming armies, in the eyes of slaves, thieves and knights, they are still little Kalami!
