Chapter 132 Xiao Zhang Cheng shoots an arrow at Prince Rui
About five miles north of Huolucheng, there is a small hill, and less than one mile to the south, Zhang Chengzheng, a guerrilla from Xuanzhen, and Dorgon, Prince He Shuorui of the Qing Dynasty and the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, are fifty paces apart, looking at each other, and In conversation.

Zhang Chengce was on the horse, estimating the wind force in his heart, squinting his eyes, and looked far away from the setting sun to determine the position and distance of Dorgon, but he replied sharply: "Your general is Xuanzhen Zhang Cheng, So that the slave chiefs will remember, Mo Dao will not know who will die in the future."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Cheng leaned back sharply, raised his left arm, and immediately clasped the bowstring with the thumb of his right hand, clamped the arrow feathers between the thumb and index finger, and naturally clasped the index finger and middle finger on the thumb. Then the right arm quickly and vigorously draws the full Kaiyuan bow.

"Whoosh!"

A heavy arrow, like a shooting star, flew off the string, pierced the biting cold wind, and shot toward Dorgon's chest.

In the blink of an eye, the Baya soldiers of the Qing army behind Dorgon saw that Zhang Cheng had sneaked up on their banner owner, and they cursed and screamed, and there were even voices of panic.

"Pong!"

After all, Dorgon is a veteran of more than ten years. He fought with Huang Taiji in Mongolia when he was 15 years old. With the cold wind blowing, lean your body slightly to the right.

In addition, the arrow shot by Zhang Cheng was quite hasty, and affected by the cold wind and the dazzling sunset, it missed Dorgon's vitals, but only hit his left shoulder.

The arrow pierced the gilt armor on Dorgon's body, and took away a piece of flesh from his left shoulder, only to see the pieces of the gilt armor flying, blood and flesh splashing.

When Zhang Cheng shot this arrow, he was in no hurry to check the results. When the arrow flew out, he hurriedly urged his horse to turn and gallop back. The distance between the two sides was only fifty steps. He galloped out, rode and shot for a while, he would be seriously injured if he didn't die.

As expected by Zhang Cheng, he shot Dorgon's left shoulder with his arrow, and dozens of horses rushed up. Although most of them were surrounded by Dorgon, more than ten of them rushed forward.

It's a pity that Zhang Cheng snatched an advance, and he rode his horse back to the main formation. The distance between the two sides was more than a hundred steps, and it was difficult to shoot with a bow and arrow. , how can you be afraid.

After a short time, the Qing army on the opposite side stopped making noise, and the Ba Yala soldiers scattered one after another. Dorgon was still riding on his horse, but his left shoulder was covered by hundreds of steps, and there was faint blood seeping.

A white-armored knight beside Dorgon suddenly galloped towards Zhang Cheng. Chen Zhong also saw it and said, "Damn it."

He was about to ride his horse to meet him, but Zhang Cheng stopped him and said, "Don't be impulsive, let's see what the slave thief is up to."

When the knight of the Qing army rode his horse and ran to more than [-] steps away from Zhang Cheng, he reined in his horse and said loudly: "Prince He Shuorui of the Qing Dynasty, the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, and the general ordered to teach Zhang Cheng the guerrilla attack in Xuanzhen Town of the Ming Dynasty. Unparalleled in loyalty and bravery, the best archery skills in the three armies,
The special general will come here and return this arrow. When we meet again in the future, we will have a good fight with General Zhang on the battlefield. "

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng was taken aback for a moment, he was granted the post of guerrilla general only after entering the guard this time, and his days are numbered, how could Dorgon know such details.

There is also the unparalleled loyalty and bravery, the highest among the three armies, and even the imperial decree, as well as the content of the dialogue between Emperor Chongzhen and Yang Sichang. How did this slave chief know?

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but take a deep breath. The intelligence work of the Qing army is really good. I don't know how many insiders they have in the Ming Dynasty.

Then Zhang Cheng said again, this Dorgon is worthy of his name in the history books, this kind of bearing is indeed extraordinary, he really is a generation of great talents, second only to Huang Taiji's No. 1 among the Tartars.

It's a pity that my current strength is not enough to kill him here, what a pity.

Zhang Cheng said to Chen Zhong who was beside him in a deep voice: "Zhongzi, go and get the arrow, and then take a package of gold sore medicine, and send it to the slave chieftain and false king Dorgon. Since one arrow is not enough to kill him, he will be born and raised. I will come back to pick it up on the battlefield in the future.”

Chen Zhong got the order, rode his horse up and stopped when he was less than ten steps away from General Na Qing. He held the rein in his left hand, and took out a small medicine bag from his arms with his right hand, and said loudly:
"My general, ordered me to send this sore medicine to the false king Dorgon, the slave chief. My general said, since you can't take the life of the false king with one arrow today, please have a good life and raise him, and you will take the head of the false king in person on the battlefield in the future." class."

After finishing speaking, he threw the medicine bag over, and the Qing army knight caught the medicine bag with his hands full of anger, but he didn't dare to disobey Dorgon's order. Baring his teeth, he projected towards Chen Zhong with all his strength.

Chen Zhong saw that the arrow was thrown from the hands of the knights of the Qing army, but the speed was not fast. He turned his body slightly, looked at the time, took the opportunity with his right hand, and took the arrow in his hand. It was blood, not yet dry.

At this moment, the cavalry of the Qing army on the opposite side, surrounded by Dorgon, ran slowly, and trotted to join the thousands of Qing troops south of Zhang Cheng. The horse caught up.

There was another puff of smoke rising from the north, but it was the cavalry of Hu Dawei who rode their horses up to the hill where Dorgon was just now, and they just rode their horses on the hill to watch Dorgon leave.

Dorgon's troops rolled to the south, and smoke and dust billowed up in the fields and wilderness. The thousands of Qing cavalry in the south of Zhang Cheng had been waiting in full force until Dorgon's troops had rushed more than [-] steps away. Slowly chased up.

Finally, there were more than a thousand Qing cavalry on the official road. They waited for the team of cavalry to gallop for more than 400 steps before jumping off the official road and slowly following Dorgon.

…………

Dorgon is worthy of being a famous general of the Qing Dynasty, his strategy and bearing are all extraordinary.

Since he was in Beijing, he began to notice Lu Xiangsheng, a rare and brave general in the Ming Dynasty, especially after Haoge was defeated and fled in Gaoyang.

Dorgon made a strategy at that time and passed on to all the ministries that they must not waste their troops with the Ming army of Lu Xiangsheng's department. If they meet, try to avoid them as much as possible.

His purpose is very simple and direct, that is, the small stocks will run away when they meet Lu Xiangsheng, and the big stocks will stick to Lu Xiangsheng when they meet them, and then gather a large army to annihilate this few daring troops in the Ming Dynasty in one battle.

Yesterday, he resolutely carried out his decision, and even played a trick in Huolu City, that is, to show his favor to Lu Xiangsheng in person, in order to cause some misunderstandings to the court of Ming Dynasty.

Today, more than a thousand Qing soldiers were left to escort the captives and military resources to withdraw first. He personally led the army to the rear and delayed for some time, but came across Zhang Cheng's troops. He wanted to test the courage of this rookie in the military circle of the Ming Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Cheng was so dishonest that he wanted to kill him with a surprise attack during the conversation. However, Dorgon, the hero of the generation, knew that this was not the time to care about this matter.

He generously sent his confidants to take advantage of the opportunity of returning the arrows to fight Zhang Cheng, which not only showed his generosity, but also took the opportunity to humiliate Zhang Cheng. Unexpectedly, Zhang Cheng didn't care.
