The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 222 Sudden Three Mistakes (Addition)

In the Battle of Hunhe, Houjin attacked the Sichuan army repeatedly, but failed to break through, thousands of casualties were lost.

Before this battle, the dignitaries of the Later Jin Dynasty dismissed firearms, because they had never lost in the battle with the Ming army, and the firearms of the Ming army could not help them.

As a result, the Sichuan Army and the Zhejiang Army taught them a vivid lesson. It is not only you who can fight in the field, but our Ming Dynasty also has troops that can fight in the field.

But when the old slave was there, he still didn't pay enough attention to firearms, including Azig, who always looked down on firearms.

Until Huang Taiji came to power, this man was indeed a man of great talent and general plan. Not only did he employ Han officials, but he also began to pay attention to the research of firearms, and he also knew the importance of population.

Today's style of play, if Hou Jin brought artillery over, he could immediately tear apart the Ming army's battle formation. No matter how good the Ming army's formation was, it would not be able to withstand the artillery attack.

Azig originally thought that Ding Yi's Ming army was very strong, and he was an unprecedented enemy of Dajin.

But after listening to Li Soltai's analysis, he also felt that it was not good.

Next time you come to bring artillery, are you just looking for a fight?
Thinking about it this way, I feel much better.

However, the next fight is the next time, how to explain to Huang Taiji when I go back this time.

Azige used to look down on Ming people, surrendered officials, and artillery.

After today, I feel that Li Sutai is a good person, with a bit of vision and a bit of ability.

So he pondered for a moment: "I don't know how to explain this defeat to the Great Khan after I go back." After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Sutai meaningfully.

Li Shuitai's expression was solemn, and he said solemnly: "Twelve Baylors don't need to blame yourself, if you want to blame it, it's that abrupt disobedience, self-assessment, which caused the defeat of our entire army, we must pay him a big blow. "

"..." Azig.

Li Shuitai continued solemnly: "This battle is so abrupt, there are three mistakes."

"First, they didn't obey orders and took the lead in attacking. They didn't join our Han army at the same time, which gave the Ming army a chance to defeat them one by one."

"Second, give up riding and shooting, and fight with knives. The Mongols are good at riding and shooting. Wutu is self-righteous. He gave up his strengths and ordered the sergeants to hold swords to meet the arrows. He walked up and fought with the Ming army. He suffered heavy losses. Military spirit."

"Three, retreat without losing, leading to defeat. At that time, the Mongolian army had already attacked the front of the Ming army, but under the fire of the Ming army, they suddenly collapsed. , triggering the collapse of the entire army, and it became the failure of our Daikin."

Azige was overjoyed after hearing this, and reached out to pat Li Soltai's shoulder through the horse: "Well said, well said."

"It's all this damned suddenness, the command is not good, and it caused our Daikin's fiasco, so we must join him."

After speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed.

Among the Mongolian, Han and Jin armies, only Wutu, the commander of the Mongolian army, died in battle, and Wutu's command was indeed inferior to Li Sutai. The two decided to blame Wutu for all the faults. If he didn't take the blame, who would?
Huang Taiji had just dealt with Amin, and Azig was naturally afraid that Huang Taiji would take advantage of this defeat to deal with him. Now that someone is taking the blame, he is more than half safe.

After Azig laughed, he also thought it was true, no wonder mynah likes to use Han people, Han Chen, these Han people are so insidious, they can come up with all kinds of nasty ideas, just like that Ding Yi.

From then on, Azig also liked to play with the Han Hanchen and get closer.

On the same day, they returned to Fuzhou, and the next day, the whole army drove to Shengjing.

Huang Taiji knew that the South Pass was a disaster, he couldn't believe it, and was even more furious.

Not counting the Ming people brought by Azig, the Mongolian, Han and Jin armies numbered 500.

When I came back, there were only less than 4000 people.

More than 3000 people were killed or captured alive by the Ming army, which was an unprecedented fiasco for Dajin.

That's right, Dajin hasn't suffered such a fiasco since the old slave founded the country.

In the battle of Hunhe that year, there were only more than [-] casualties, and it was considered a very heavy battle that is rare in the history of Dajin.

That same night, Huang Taiji summoned Azige, Li Yongfang and his son into the palace.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the three of them came in, Huang Taiji heard Azige's crying and wailing.

He stared at Azig dumbfounded, with an expression of shame and anger on his face, and he wanted to laugh again.

Azige was naked, with thorns on his back, and there were wounds and bloodstains on his body. He cried, "Myna, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for Dajin, please punish me severely."

Weeping, he knelt down in front of Huang Taiji with a plop.

Huang Taiji was fooled.

After all, Azig in history has always been a domineering and arrogant person, so he would be so submissive so easily.

Before Azige came, Huang Taiji had already prepared it. If Azige didn't explain clearly, and he was so stubborn with Amin, he had to take this opportunity to set up two more white flags.

However, Fan Wencheng and Tong Yangxing both suggested that Huang Taiji had just dealt with Amin and seized the Xianglan Banner, and if two more white flags were set up, he was afraid that the people below would be disturbed.

Right now, Daming is the number one enemy, and internal stability must be maintained. Moreover, the excuse of defeat is not a good excuse. Amin massacred the city and killed a large number of Ming people. Population is a resource for war, and he can be punished. Ah What is it that Zieg loses a battle?Have you ever lost a battle, Huang Taiji?Afraid of not being able to convince the public?
As soon as Huang Taiji heard it made sense, he didn't intend to punish Azige for his felony.

Unexpectedly, Azig was also very knowledgeable, and came to plead guilty with a trick used by the Han people.

Seeing this, Huang Taiji felt much better. At the same time, he gave Li Yongfang a meaningful look. He thought it must be Li Yongfang who taught him.

But this is also good, Azig used to look down on the Han people and Han Chen, but now he needs to know the importance of the Han people and Han Chen.

"Twelfth brother, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, get up and say it. Mynah, I'm not saying that I want to punish you. I just want to hear from you. How did it happen?" Huang Taiji said kindly, He also personally stepped forward to help Azig up.

This also confused Azig, Huang Taiji is so easy to talk?It seems that it is still useful for the Han people to plead guilty.

He stopped pretending at the moment, and hurriedly asked himself to go, first explaining the battle process.

It is probably what Li Soltai said, but some places have been changed.

He said that I let the Mongolian army ride and shoot the Ming army's wings, and the Han army rushed forward.

Wu Tu made up his own mind, disobeyed orders, and insisted on attacking by force, so he knew that Ming had dug a lot of holes insidiously, and immediately suffered a big loss.

Then the Mongolian army retreated first on the battlefield, causing the entire army to collapse.

Half of what he said was true and half was false. In short, he put the blame on Wu Tu.

Huang Taiji didn't intend to punish him, so after thinking about it, he said sharply: "Wutu is incompetent, and he will implicate Dajin, pass the order."

He demoted Wutu's whole family to slaves, and all the children, old and young, were assigned to Azig.

In this battle, all the officers above Dadan of the Mongolian army were beheaded, and those of the Han army who fled first were all beheaded.

He also ordered the whole army to fight against the Ming army in the future. Whoever dares to retreat first will be executed by the Han and Mongolian armies.

Dajin army, all beheaded, all family members demoted to slavery.

The poor Mongolian Wutu died fighting for Dajin, but his daughter and wife favored the rich and powerful.
