Although not all soldiers surrendered to the Ming army, at best, only about one-fifth. Others were still hesitant to watch, and many even turned their heads to look back, not knowing what they were looking at.
But Dorgon knew that he could not continue like this, otherwise, the remaining soldiers would probably surrender.
So, he immediately ordered the troops to retreat. He wanted to find out what happened to make those people rebel on the battlefield!
If he didn't figure out the reason, he was afraid that this would happen again the next time he attacked.
If this is really the case, this battle will be impossible to fight!
The "dong dong dong" sound of the drum quickly disappeared and was replaced by a rapid "dang dong dong" sound.
Hearing the sound of gold ringing, many of the hesitating soldiers retreated, while others were still hesitating. In the end, some were called back by the retreating people, and some did not go back, but surrendered to the Ming army.
Originally thought to be a vigorous battle, no, it was a very tragic battle, but it ended with four or five people dead and wounded, and about a quarter of the Ming army surrendered.
As soon as the soldiers returned, they began to murmur with the people of their own tribe.
The scene that just happened not only surprised Dorgon and others, but also their own clan members, their clan leaders, leaders, etc. were also very surprised. Therefore, of course, you must ask clearly as soon as possible.
By the time Dorgon's messengers arrived, all the tribes were already in a commotion, seeming to be arguing about something.
After receiving the military order, the heads of various clans rushed to Dorgon's side. In fact, even if Dorgon doesn't send someone to tell them, they will still go to Dorgon.
The clan chiefs of each clan arrived first and last, among which Wu Keshan was the first to arrive.
As soon as he saw Dorgon, without waiting for Dorgon to say anything first, he immediately asked: "Did Kong Youde betray the Qing Dynasty? Those who robbed the Qing Dynasty's granary were not barbarians from the north, but the Ming Army's Jingying Cavalry, headed by Is that Wu Sangui that guy?"
"..." Upon hearing this, Dorgon was stunned. He didn't expect that Wu Keshan asked more clearly than he did.
It wasn't until this moment that he suddenly realized that he couldn't help but hate himself.
To be honest, Dorgon attached great importance to Emperor Chongzhen. Therefore, in the past, he had repeatedly sent people to Duduo to emphasize that he must pay attention to the traces of the Ming Emperor. Because he expected that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom and his Royal Forest Army were the strongest military force in the Ming Kingdom and the strongest weapon against the Qing Dynasty. If they don't show up, then the Ming army's actions may be in vain.
It was only when the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and his Royal Forest Army appeared in Haizhou that Dorgon was sure that the Ming Army's attack on Haizhou was its true combat purpose. Therefore, he made such an arrangement and did not hesitate to fight.
Unexpectedly, in this battle, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty actually reversed his previous practice and used himself as bait. Instead of sending the Guan Ning Army, he sent the Beijing Camp Cavalry Army to seize the lifeline of the Qing Dynasty. It was because he had not expected this that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty took his salary from under the cauldron and ended up in such a difficult situation now.
In fact, this really cannot be said to be how stupid Dorgon is! There are really too many cards to play in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen. No matter how talented Dorgon is, how much can he handle?
Just say that this time, even if he included the Beijing camp, Emperor Chongzhen would call back Chen Qiyu's Xuan Army, or call Zheng Chongjian's Qin Army over, there would be too many cards, and Dorgon would not be counted at all. Finished. Unless Emperor Chongzhen gives him the golden finger, he can still use the golden finger to make up for the gap in strength between the two sides.
At this time, after he came back to his senses, he naturally denied it immediately: "What's the matter! Is this a rumor spread by the Ming army? I said they were northern barbarians, and they are northern barbarians. Is it possible that you still want me? Can I show you the eight hundred miles of Shengjing Express?"
"Your Highness, please take a look!" Unexpectedly, Wu Keshan did not flinch this time, but climbed up along the bar.
At this time, other clan leaders happened to arrive. After hearing their conversation, they all agreed, wanting to see the urgent report and see whether it was the Ming army or the northern barbarians.
Because for them, the difference between the northern barbarians and the Ming army was too big, and they wanted to figure this out. Some clan leaders even shouted: "Did a lot of the grain trucks that came before be fake? Is there not that much grain left in the army at all?"
Upon hearing this question, Dorgon realized that one head was as big as two. That urgent report must not be shown to them. There is not much food left in the army, and we must not let the whole army know, otherwise the morale of the army will be chaotic.
At this time, he finally understood.
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty is really a monster. To deal with the strong attack on his side, it is not artillery and guns, but this kind of blow that exposes the truth. Not only did he easily resolve the strong attack, he even made it difficult for him to resist. He was so ruthless and treacherous!
"How dare you rebel?" At this moment, Duduo got angry, pointed at them with a stern face, and shouted loudly, "You can't see what I gave to my uncle, the regent. In front of my uncle, the regent. Dare you be so rude?"
I have to say that Duduo's usual image is indeed unreasonable and arrogant. His outburst really made the scene quiet down.
Seeing this, Dorgon couldn't help but relax a little.
However, before he could say anything, the following clan leaders arrived. Because they did not see Duduo's outburst, they questioned Duoduo as soon as they arrived. So, other clan leaders joined in, wanting the truth!
When Duduo saw it, he was extremely angry. Just when he was about to draw his knife, Haoge, Yue Tuo, and Azig all came one after another. The three of them were also surprised by the scene just now, and rushed over to see what was going on. Therefore, they happened to see Dorgon again, looking like something was wrong.
After asking for a moment, Hauge probably understood what was going on. He immediately became furious. He pulled out his knife on the spot, pointed at the clan leaders and shouted: "You bunch of dog slaves are just dogs of my Qing Dynasty. How dare you You are so rude, do you really want to rebel?”
Although they had internal conflicts, at this time, the authority of the Qing Dynasty was challenged. As the prince of the Qing Dynasty, Hauge naturally became violent.
Seeing this scene, many clan leaders already knew it. There is a high probability that the Ming army was right, and the regent had lied to them before.
Those of them who can become clan leaders are naturally not stupid, and they immediately thought of many things from it. Suddenly, their faces looked very ugly.
Dorgon looked at this scene. No matter in his heart he wanted all the tribes to die, but before he really died, he still had to appease them so that they could still listen to the military orders of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, he softened his tone slightly and shouted loudly. Said: "We are facing a formidable enemy. We should work together and not quarrel!"
At this point, he glanced at the clan leaders of each clan, and tried to explain: "If you think about it with your brain, you will know what good things the Ming army can say? As long as it is beneficial to them, the black ones can be said to be white, and the white ones can be said to be white. It's dark. There are royal secrets in the urgent report, and I can't show it to you. If you want to trust me, you can't trust the Ming army but not your own people, right?"
After hearing this, Yue Tuo also comforted him: "The Ming army is about to be wiped out by us. Naturally, they are so anxious that they can use all kinds of tricks. No one with a little bit of brains will be fooled, let alone, you are all in your own way." How could the clan leader be fooled by them, right?"
Hearing the words of the two of them, some clan leaders had to doubt their own conclusions just now, thinking in their hearts, could this really be a trick of the Ming army?
However, when they were silent, Wu Keshan suddenly asked Dorgon: "Did Kong Youde betray the Qing Dynasty?"
"Didn't I say this, this is a rumor from the Ming army!" Dorgon was very dissatisfied when he heard this, and immediately replied coldly.
After hearing this, Wu Keshan pointed at Duduo and said, "But before the war started, how come I heard him say that Kong Youde betrayed the Qing Dynasty?"
Hearing this, Dorgon couldn't help being surprised. Needless to say, Duduo's voice was a little loud before because this thing heard him.
But at this time, how could he admit it? He immediately shouted with a cold face: "Why don't I know?"
After finishing speaking, Dorgon glanced at the other clan leaders, and when he saw the doubts on their faces, he knew something was wrong.
"I was right in front. At that time, he said that Liu Aita, Geng Zhongming, and Kong Youde all betrayed the Qing Dynasty..." Wu Keshan immediately said what he heard to prove that he was right.
However, when Dorgon heard this, he immediately interrupted sharply: "At this time, you are actually spreading false rumors to deceive the morale of the army. Well, I didn't know until now that you are hiding deep in our Qing Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty’s detailed work inside, come here!”
His personal guards arrived in response. When Wu Keshan saw that something was wrong, he quickly said: "I am loyal to the Qing Dynasty, how can I be a spy in the Ming Dynasty? My nephew is the Qing emperor, my sister and my aunt..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Dorgon's eyes were ruthless and he ordered sternly: "Take him to the front of the battle and chop him down, so that the Dog Emperor of the Ming Dynasty will know that his meticulous work has been discovered by me. This time, the Dog Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has no internal support and is dead!"
"Dorgon, you bastard, you dare to kill me? How are you going to go back and explain to the Queen Mother?" Wu Keshan never expected that Dorgon would kill him, so he threatened loudly, "You dare to kill me? You will not have a good death in the future..."
Dorgon's personal guards didn't care whether you were the emperor's uncle or not. They rushed over immediately and dragged Wu Keshan away.
Wu Keshan's threats were in vain, so he immediately called out to his people to rescue him.
This scene frightened all the clan leaders present. In their view, the Horqin people and the Manchu people were the closest. Wu Keshan was a relative of the Qing Dynasty and had made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. They even killed him. Even if it was a detailed work, he should be escorted back to Shengjing for trial, right? What's more, judging from the situation just now, maybe Wu Keshan was wrongly accused!
When the Horqin tribe heard their leader's cry for help, they became commotion. However, Dorgon did not give them a chance, and immediately mobilized the Manchu troops and surrounded them all, with swords and guns pointed at them. Anyone who dared to move would definitely rush over and chop them down with this posture.
Wu Keshan's original reputation in the clan was actually not as high as that of his father Bu He. In addition, it had only been a little more than a year since he took over as the clan leader, and the base camp was still attacked by the Ming army, so they started to stay under the fence. During the days when Wu Keshan was the patriarch, the Horqin tribe did not live well, and many people were even killed by the Jianbu, but Wu Keshan did not seek justice for them. Therefore, seeing that he was about to be killed, and seeing the Manchu army watching eagerly, in the end, even a few of Wu Keshan's cronies did not dare to move. They were afraid that if Wu Keshan failed to rescue them, they would be killed by the Manchurians first.
As a result, Wu Keshan was dragged to the front of the two armies by Dorgon's bodyguards. One of the bodyguards, who understood the Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty, shouted loudly to Yaozhouyi: "My uncle, the regent, has discovered that Wu Keshan of the Horqin tribe is a masterpiece of your Ming Dynasty." , I was ordered to show my head to the public!"
After saying that, without waiting for a response from the Ming army, he chopped off the struggling Wu Keshan with a "click". The head fell to the ground, and his eyes were still wide open with anger. It is estimated that he will not die until he dies. I dare to believe that he was slandered as a spy of the Ming Dynasty and died in the hands of Dorgon.
On top of Yaozhou Post City, Emperor Chongzhen saw this scene and couldn't help but sneered. He didn't care at all about Wu Keshan's death.
However, of course he would not let Dorgon succeed, so he called Wu Zhong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and told him: "Preach my decree and let the whole army announce that Dorgon and Azig have been killed." I captured them alive, they were my internal agents, and I released them."
"..." Wu Zhong also saw the scene outside the city. When he heard that the emperor actually asked someone to shout such words, he couldn't help but be speechless. But when he came back to his senses, he immediately showed an expression of joy and quickly received the order, "Your Majesty's wonderful plan, the last general will accept the order!"
Outside the city, Dorgon saw Wu Keshan's head being brought back for inspection by his personal guards. He pointed at the head with a cold face and said to the chiefs of other tribes: "Everyone, this piece of shit was made carefully in the Ming Dynasty. Every time It was only by informing the Ming Dynasty that the Qing Dynasty could not win the war! Now that it is better, the details have been eliminated, you can fight with peace of mind, and you can regain the glory of the Qing Dynasty, and be invincible in every battle..."
He was bewitching these clan leaders when suddenly, he heard a thundering voice. It was fifty thousand soldiers of the Ming Army shouting in unison. The sound of this sound immediately overwhelmed any sound in the Yaozhouyi area.
Upon hearing the shout, those who understood it were dumbfounded. They all turned to look at Dorgon and Azig, their eyes full of suspicion.
In the past, they were surprised that due to the status of Dorgon and Azig in the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Emperor captured them and there was absolutely no reason to release them. However, the fact is that both of them were returned to Liaodong. This is very abnormal!
Could it be that, as the Ming army just shouted, they were released after they became the slaves of the Ming Dynasty?
