I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 402: The Last Eight Banners of Slavery
Chapter 402

The Qing army collapsed and there were still people who took the initiative to stay behind. However, Ning Haijun's cavalry did not fight head-on with the Qing army's cavalry. Behind Ning Haijun's cavalry was a rocket launcher convoy, although the rocket shells could not keep up with the speed of the cavalry. , as long as the Qing cavalry stayed to block Ning Haijun's pursuit, they would be bombarded by Ning Haijun's rocket launchers.

To ask why Ning Haijun's rocket launchers were not as short as Huang Taiji imagined, it needs to be explained again that Ning Haijun was the main force of the four brigades in the decisive battle with the Qing army.Huang Taiji sent people to blow up only the ammunition depots of the Eighth Brigade and the Guards Brigade, while the Seventh and Ninth Brigades did not suffer any losses.

Facing the Ning navy cavalry, they would not let go. Once they caught up with the Qing army's lagging troops, they would immediately pounce on them and devour them.If the Qing army was in the rear, they would use rocket launchers to bombard them. The Qing army's defeated troops would gnash their teeth in hatred of the hungry wolves behind them.

The Ning navy cavalry's tactics of using light cavalry to chase after them, constantly biting their opponents, and bleeding their opponents while also causing panic, exhaustion, and even despair, were their specialty. During the decades of war between the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Qing army The cavalry's wolf attack tactics were a nightmare for the Ming army. Often the Ming army collapsed with this endless biting before the main force could fight decisively!
Now that this tactic was used on himself, he felt the same sour feeling and made them furious!
When Huang Taiji woke up leisurely, what he saw was such a tragic scene of abandoning his armor.The yellow flag and the red flag were okay, and they still maintained discipline, but Guan Ning's army was miserable. Flags, armor, weapons and other things were thrown all over the world, and they almost took off their pants and ran naked to reduce a little weight.

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui, Wu Sanfu and other generals of Guan Ning's army looked panicked and kept looking back, like deer being chased by hunters. They looked so cowardly, which made Huang Taiji furious!
Huang Taiji noticed that the troops were running towards Beijing. The Ming army cavalry kept appearing and disappearing behind them. Every time they appeared, there would be bursts of horrified screams from the Qing army.

Huang Taiji was heartbroken and defeated. He devoted all his strength to fight Cheng Shijie. The Qing army was defeated before it had time to display its normal level of combat effectiveness. Moreover, it was a crushing defeat!
After this defeat, he may not have another chance.

Huang Taiji looked around, but did not see his reckless son.He asked: "Where is Hauge?"

No one answered him.

Everyone was focused on running for their lives and could not hear his voice.

Huang Taiji let out a roar: "Where is my Hauge!?"

The generals around Huang Taiji were startled and finally came to their senses. They looked at each other in confusion and no one answered.

Huang Taiji was not a fool. He thought of the result naturally. He looked sad and murmured to himself: "Hauge...is gone too..."

A strong feeling of loneliness came over him, making his soul tremble.Those figures who once followed him throughout his career, including Amin, Mang Gurtai, Abatai, Jierhalang, Azig, Dorgon, Duduo, Yuetuo...are no longer there, and now even that Hauge, who has always been reckless and not very popular with him but has never lost his loyalty, is no longer there. He is the only one left who is still struggling!
The fleeing army suddenly made a loud noise, angry and frightened. The huge sound interrupted Huang Taiji's thoughts.Huang Taiji raised his head to escape the sound, but couldn't see anything.He frowned and asked: "What happened? Why are the soldiers making such a noise?"

The generals also looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

Wu Sanfu ran back in despair. When he was escaping, this guy was the fastest and kept running at the front. No one could keep up with him. This ability really impressed Huang Taiji.

Of course, it would be better if Wu Sanfu could use this ability in fighting.This guy ran in front of Huang Taiji and shouted in horror: "Your Majesty, Ning Haijun, Ning Haijun!"

Huang Taiji's heart sank suddenly, and he grabbed the collar of this guy who couldn't even speak clearly, and shouted angrily: "While I still have a little patience, speak clearly to me, or I will kill you!"

Wu Sanfu was startled, but he spoke eloquently: "Ning Haijun! A Ning Haijun blocked our army's way, and let them kill all our scouts!"

Wu Xiang lost his voice and asked: "How many people are there in this Ming army?"

Wu Sanfu swallowed hard: "There are more than [-] people..."

Wu Xiang's vision went dark, he staggered, and was about to fall off the horse.Unfortunately, Huang Taiji tried his best to mobilize an army of 9 to [-] troops to fight Cheng Shijie in a bloody battle. However, Cheng Shijie assembled four brigades of [-] troops and were defeated in just two days, with heavy losses!
Now that the Qing army has been severely weakened, Ning Haijun has shown up hundreds of thousands of troops, and they are not letting anyone survive!
Seeing that Wu Xiang was about to faint, Wu Sanfu quickly added: "It's not Ning Haijun! They mainly use long bows and crossbows, they don't have cannons, and they don't have many muskets. They are not Ning Haijun!"

Wu Xiang stopped shaking immediately, and all the Qing generals breathed a long sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't Ning Haijun... As long as it wasn't Ning Haijun, they would still have some room to fight back!
Of course, what Wu Sanfu said is correct, and what he said is wrong is also incorrect.This is the Ning Haijun adapted from the Dashun Army. Cheng Shijie reorganized the Dashun Army under Song Xiance and did not add advanced rifles and artillery. The six brigades from No. 13 Brigade to No. 18 Brigade are still Dashun The original military equipment.

Even though the equipment of this army is not as good as that of Ning Haijun's 12st to [-]th brigades, the problem is that they have more combat experience than the [-]th to [-]th brigades.

Huang Taiji looked gloomy.It was certainly gratifying that he did not run into Ning Haijun, but the mere news that "it was not Ning Haijun" made the generals feel relieved. This meant that his generals had completely lost the courage to face Ning Haijun. They would not face Ning Haijun again in the future. Ning Haijun probably only has one word left to escape, just like the Ming army once had only one word left to escape when they faced them.

The Qing army has come so far with its fierceness and daring to fight, but has lost the confidence and courage to fight to the death with Ning Haijun. Do they still have a future?However, it is too early to think about the future now. In front of them, Ning Haijun has hundreds of thousands of troops standing in front of them, and Ning Haijun is pursuing at full speed. If he cannot pass this level, this area will be the death of him and his army. Land, if they all died, there would be no future.

He asked the generals to calm down and went forward with a group of soldiers to inspect the enemy's situation.

A huge infantry phalanx lay in front of the fleeing Qing army.

The flag of this army looks quite strange, very different from the Ming army standard, but the armor on the body is the Ning Navy standard. The helmet, shoulder armor, breastplate, and greaves are all stamped from large steel plates at one time. , the defensive ability is extremely amazing, I don’t know if a musket can penetrate it, at least a bow and arrow cannot penetrate it.In front were three rows of tall, hunky crossbowmen.

The crossbowmen held in their hands the formation-breaking crossbow that made the Qing cavalry change their expressions. The quiver must have been filled with the most lethal three-sided armor-breaking cone at this time, and a horizontal sword made of fine steel was pinned to it. On the back, this thing has a strong armor-breaking ability, and a full thrust is enough to pierce the Qing army's iron armor.

Behind the crossbowmen is an endless line of pikemen, holding four-meter long spears. The iron mask integrated with the helmet has been put down. Only a pair of cold eyes are left on the whole body. The cold and bloodthirsty gaze, coupled with the ferocious look. The iron mask of the evil ghost is really terrifying.

The spears are densely packed. I believe that any cavalry facing such a dense phalanx of spears will be one head and two bigger.You can't see clearly from behind. They are probably super heavy infantry holding giant axes. Although they move slowly, no one can remain calm when tens of thousands of Mo Dao and giant axes are chopped down at the same time.

This is a cold-weapon Ning Haijun, which is roughly equivalent to the Ning Haijun during the Haizhou Battle in the fifth year of Chongzhen. After the Dashun Army was reorganized, it immediately went north from the Jianghuai River and captured Zhending Mansion with lightning speed. , Baoding Prefecture, until arriving at the capital city of Shuntian Prefecture, which also cut off the return route of the Qing army to the capital!

Who among Ning Haijun's troops is the most utilitarian?
That must be Song Xiance, one of Cheng Shijie's original team members, because Song Xiance, because Song Xiance knew very well that he could only get ahead unless he followed Cheng Shijie, and Song Xiance himself was too short and did not have the ability to be independent. , the development of the Dashun Army has always relied on the development program provided by Cheng Shijie.

Huang Taiji raised the telescope and looked over there. His whole body trembled violently. Several veins protruded on the back of the hand holding the telescope, and he almost crushed the telescope barrel.

Huang Taiji saw about 1000 prisoners in front of Ning Haijun's formation. Among these prisoners were some of his acquaintances. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's Old Fourteenth and Old Fifteenth!"

Jierhalang cried out: "How could they fall into the hands of Ning Haijun!?"

Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and said, "The army attacking Shanxi...is over!"

It should be said that before Huang Taiji entered the pass, he sent Daishan, Yuetuo, Dorgon and others to lead half of the Qing army to attack Shanxi. The commanders of this Qing army's western front legion were Prince Rui Dorgon and Prince Yu. Duduo, the Western Front Army has two strategic tasks, which is to capture Jingxing, attack Beizhili from Shanxi, and echo the Eastern Front Army to capture the entire north as quickly as possible. ,

There was nothing wrong with Huang Taiji's plan, but something unexpected happened.

The first surprise was Zhou Yuji, the commander-in-chief of Shanxi who had just taken office. Zhou Yuji was more capable than Xie Zhiliang. After taking office, he quickly took control of the army. Because of the support of the civil servant group, Zhou Yuji entered Shanxi with money and food.

The biggest problem of the Ming army was that they had no military pay. As long as they had military pay, they would be almost invincible. Zhou Yuji relied on the food and military pay in his hands to lead the Shanxi Army and Dorgon's tribe to endure for more than three months.

You know, this is half of the elite troops of the Qing army. Shanxi originally suffered heavy losses from the Mobei Mongolia, and what was left to Zhou Yuji was actually a mess. Many new recruits were added, and it was these recruits that blocked Dorgon's southward path. After Yi Yi ran out of ammunition and food, the Qing Army's Western Front Army broke through Jingxing and arrived at Zhending Mansion.

Before they could rejoin the Eastern Front Army Corps led by Huang Taiji, they crashed head-on into Song Xiance's headquarters. After continuous fighting, the new regiment led by Song Xiance was like a tiger, and in less than a month, Inside, he ate Dorgon's troops and captured Dorgon, Duduo, Azige and even Daishan, Yuetuo and others.

Seeing how embarrassed Dorgon and others were, this could only mean one thing. The 10,000+ army that attacked Shanxi was finished, completely finished, not even a scum was left!

That was nearly half of the troops of the Qing Dynasty, and nearly half of the Eight Banners disciples were buried in Shanxi like this!
In fact, as early as a month ago, Dorgon and the troops he led were crushed by Ning Haijun Song Xiance's troops in Zhending Mansion. Azig was captured alive by Yuan Zongdi's troops. Dorgon and Duoduo led the remaining troops The defeated general fled, and Song Xiance's nephew Jiang Wubing led his army in hot pursuit. After a fierce battle, Duduo was also captured by Jiang Wubing's men.

Later, Dorgon led the remnants of his troops to escape into the Luliang Mountains, and Song Xiance's troops followed him closely. They surrounded hundreds of miles with water and launched a search. Hundreds of thousands of civilians and guardsmen joined the search. Dorgon had nowhere to hide.

After hiding in the mountains and chewing bark and grass roots for several days, Dorgon finally couldn't stand it anymore and decisively went down the mountain to surrender to Song Xiance's army. He had thrown away the pride of the Qing prince and the dignity of the Eight Banners warriors. He just wanted to be a soldier. Damn it!
At this time, the soldiers around Song Xiance laughed excitedly as they watched the Qing army of [-] to [-] defeated.

"Our efforts were not in vain, we blocked them!"

"Stop it, block it!"

"So many heads! They are enough to exchange for thousands of hectares of fertile land!" "Song Shuai, the last general is willing to be a pioneer!"

"No, no, General Yuan, you are the vanguard every time, and we have no chance at all. This is so unfair! We must leave the chance to us this time!"

"We want to be pioneers too, we want to be pioneers too!"

The Dashun Army had never fought against the Qing Army Jianu, and suffered losses at first. However, later, they discovered that Dorgon's men were not that strong and could fight better than the Ming Army, but the problem was that they could not fight much.

In the eyes of these Dashun Army officers, one slave head equaled 75 acres of land, which made the poor and fearful soldiers ecstatic.

"Stop arguing, I have my own plans!"

Song Xiance looked back at the majestic city of Beijing and said with a faint smile: "Jiang Wubing!"

"The end is here!"

"You lead your troops to capture the city of Beijing. This city must belong to Cheng Shuai!"

"uncle……"

"There are no fathers and sons in the army!"

"It's Shuai Song!"

Although Jiang Wubing was very dissatisfied, he agreed to rely on it. In fact, the capital was not difficult to fight, because Huang Taiji had no hope. As long as Huang Taiji lived, the capital could be easily obtained, and there was no need to fight.

The credit for capturing the capital was not small, but the problem was that it was much smaller than capturing Huang Taiji alive.

Song Xiance said again: "Give them an appetizer first, and drag Dorgon and Duoduo out for me!"

"Chopped?"

"Chop them with one knife. It's too easy for them. Let me beat them to death!"

Duduo howled hoarsely: "Bago, help me! I don't want to die!"

When Duduo opened his mouth, Dorgon and Azig couldn't hold on any longer and screamed at the top of their lungs: "Bago, save me!"

The shrill howls resounded across the battlefield, and the Ning navy officers burst into laughter, while the Qing army bit their lips until they bled, and their cheeks were burning, as if a pair of invisible hands were pointing at their faces, snapping and lashing out from left to right. , so hard that stars appeared in their eyes!

Ji Erhalang roared: "Ming dog! Killing people is nothing more than nodding their heads, what kind of skill is it to insult the captives like this!"

The Qing army then roared: "Insulting the prisoners like this is nothing!"

What responded to them was the unscrupulous laughter of the Ning navy officers, and the miserable howls of the Manchu nobles, which made the listeners sad and weeping: "Bago, save me! Please save me, please. emperor……"

Song Xiance waved his hand.

Then a group of humanoid tanks appeared in Ning Haijun's army. Yes, they were all heavy infantrymen over 1.8 meters tall, wearing heavy armor and holding sledgehammers.

These heavy infantrymen temporarily acted as executioners.

"Go!"

"Pfft..."

"Ah...ah..."

As the heavy hammers fell one after another, the Manchu nobles, including Dorgon, were hit one after another, and they screamed in agony.But after being hit with a hammer, he couldn't die, but he was heartbroken.

These heavy infantrymen of the Ning Navy first smashed the feet of Dorgon and others, and then the legs. Their feet and limbs were smashed into pulp one after another. Although the limbs were extremely painful, they could not die directly.

Although these hammers did not hit Huang Taiji, they made him suffer.

Of course, Huang Taiji can't do anything now.

The screams on the battlefield became weaker and weaker, and most of the prisoners were seen unconscious from the pain. The last hammer hit the heads of those prisoners.

"Pfft, puff..."

The heads of these prisoners looked like broken watermelons.

Huang Taiji couldn't stand it anymore and vomited blood and fell into coma.

Song Xiance smiled very happily and said, "Are these slaves going crazy?"

Song Xiance succeeded, and the remnants of the Qing army were driven crazy by the success.

Song Xiance knew that Cheng Shijie hated the Jian slaves very much and was not afraid that the Jian slaves would drive them crazy. They would definitely surrender in despair. Facing these Jian slaves, Cheng Shijie would feel as uncomfortable as vomiting a fly.

As the saying goes, he was worried about the humiliation of his ministers, so Song Xiance decided to solve the problem for Cheng Shijie.

The soldiers of the Qing army waved their weapons and shouted: "Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"

Cheng Shijie, Zhou Ning, and Zhang Yu led the Ning Haijun cavalry to advance quickly. The dead bodies in that area were the best road signs, and they pursued the Qing army fiercely.Ning Haijun's infantry was trotting behind in pursuit, and was already several miles behind. During a short distance march, the infantry could not keep up with the cavalry anyway.

A killing sound came from a distance.Cheng Shijie reined in his horse and listened attentively: "The Qing army seems to be blocked?"

"Yes, they must have been blocked, and a fierce bloody battle broke out. Who could be blocking them?"

Cheng Shijie smiled and said: "There is no sound of cannons, it should be Song Xiance's men!"

There are hundreds of thousands of troops blocking the front, and tens of thousands of troops chasing after them behind. The fate of the Qing army has been decided, and there is no way for them to survive.
