Chapter 152 What Bad Ideas Can Dirk Have?
In the 11th year of Chongzhen, on the tenth day of December, at Shenshi, the sky was dim, and the sun was hidden behind dark clouds, looming.

Ten miles northeast of Julu County, in the fields on the west side of Wangju Village on the west bank of the Laozhang River, hoofbeats rumbled like thunder, and clouds of dust flew up one after another.

Xuan Dajing of the Lu Xiangsheng Department of the Ming Army is fighting fiercely with the Zhenglan Banner Qing soldiers led by Prince Su Haoge of the Qing Army. In the wilderness, there is a group in the east and a group in the west. The red and blue armored torrents are intertwined. one slice.

The Qing Army's Zhenglan Banner Jialazhang Jingdandai led hundreds of cavalry, and was surrounded by two thousand-odd knight regiments from the Ming Army, Lu Xiangsheng and Hu Dawei. Yang Guozhu and Chen An's two Ming armies chased after him, but they were powerless.

Hauge, Prince Su of the Qing Dynasty, who had been watching the battle from a distance, saw that the situation was critical, so he hurriedly ordered a Ba Yala warrior beside him to lead a hundred elite warriors to rescue the Dandai tribe.

They led a hundred Qing cavalry, roaring hoarsely, and charged at the Ming army of the Tiger Dawei Department. The leading Baya soldier flew up and down, left and right with a tiger spear.

He smashed the thorns and smashed a bloody path, and rushed to Dan Dai, shouting in Tartar language: "Dandai, the prince ordered me to take you back. Kill..."

Dan Dai's troops were also very brave, but after fighting for a long time, they were a little tired, especially their horses were already weak, and they were surrounded by Ming troops twice their size, so they couldn't escape for a while.

At this time, more than 100 new troops came to help, and he immediately cheered up, shouting: "Warriors, go out and return to the prince..."

With the bravery of the dozen or so Bayala soldiers, they finally broke out of the encirclement. The more than 600 Qing soldiers galloped like wild horses, leaving more than a hundred dead Tartars behind.

De Kelei also heard the sound of gongs. With a whistling whistle, he led the army to another team of Mongolian cavalry. The two armies kept a distance of a hundred paces, covering each other and supporting each other, running fast and go.

Yang Guozhu and Chen An just led the army to chase after them. Seeing them going away, they were about to give up, but they saw a red cloud flashing in the smoke and dust in the northeast direction. They cheered up and continued to chase.

The guerrilla general Guo Yingxian led five hundred knights and was rushing towards him. He wanted to intercept the Mongolian cavalry of Dirk's tribe, but was blocked by the opponent's cavalry and shot, and failed to intercept him. Riding a dead body.

When Zhang Cheng's army intersected with Haoge's troops, the three-eyed guns were fired at close range, overturning more than a dozen Qing troops riding the Zhenglan Banner, and then rushed to the Qing troops of Dandai who had just emerged from the siege.

Dan Dai was not entangled with Zhang Cheng, he led his army to follow those Bala soldiers, trying to bypass Zhang Cheng and other knights, and return to Hauge. Although Zhang Cheng chased hard, he only captured more than [-] horsemen. Weak soldiers.

…………

Hauge's interest was very low. Under the guard of his Ba Yala soldiers, he ran up the official road and then slowly headed towards Nangong County.

Recalling how high-spirited I was when I left Nangong County in the morning and rushed to the Julu to approach the soldiers, all I thought about was how to torture Lu Xiangsheng, Zhang Cheng and others after the victory.

How could I have imagined that the dog thieves Lu Xiangsheng, Zhang Cheng and others from the Ming Kingdom would take the initiative to attack. At this moment, I couldn't help but think in my heart: this time, after being defeated by the Ming thieves for the second time, Fourteenth Uncle will definitely be at the father's place. Sue yourself for being black.Hey……

Most of his subordinates escorted the plundered young men, money, grain and other supplies, and a few small groups plundered separately, but have not gathered yet. He was afraid that Julu would be too late and would be looked down upon by Dorgon, so he led three troops. More than a thousand riders rushed to the giant deer first.

It's a pity that because he underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, he was defeated by the Ming army again, which really made him feel unwilling. Therefore, he hated Lu Xiangsheng, Zhang Cheng and other Ming generals to the bone, and wished to eat their flesh raw.

He now has only two thousand cavalry around, of which Zhenglan Banner Qing soldiers are less than a thousand cavalry, and he lost more than 300 Qing warriors in this battle, which made him feel very distressed.

As for He Chenggong's Han army, more than half of them were injured, amounting to more than [-] people. Only Deke was more cunning, and he gave full play to his advantages.

In this battle, less than a hundred of his subordinates were injured, and before the battle, they all tied their bodies to the horses with ropes.

But the advantage is that even if a person is injured, he will not fall off the horse, and his horse will still advance and retreat with the brigade. Many wounded will return to the camp with the brigade when they retreat.

Deke Leice was on the horse, and he was in a good mood. He fought against Lu Xiangsheng and Zhang Cheng of the Ming Army twice, and Hauge lost a lot. However, he was always able to lead his men and retreat unscathed. He was also very popular in the hearts of his men. Long.

At the same time, he also found that although most of the generals of the Ming Dynasty were unbearable to fight, after all, the emaciated camels were bigger than the horses, and they still had some blood and bravery, just like the soldiers and horses of the Ming army Lu Xiangsheng who fought twice.

Especially that Zhang Cheng, whose name was already quite resounding in the Qing army. Since the invasion of Ming Dynasty, nearly a thousand warriors of the Qing Dynasty were killed by Zhang Cheng.

Especially even Prince Rui's noble body was shot by that Zhang Cheng thief!
Thinking of this, the Dirks are looking forward to the opportunity to meet this bold and arrogant general for a while.

At the same time, he also made up his mind in his heart that it was reasonable to invade the Ming country this time, not to loot much property, but to keep more Mongolian warriors in the tribe.

As for allegiance to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, in the final analysis, strength is the king. If you can't beat someone, you can only sacrifice your life for him. Back then, even Lin Danhan was chased all the way to the northwest by Huang Taiji, and died of illness. What can I do?
Di Kelei thinks this way, but He Chenggong beside him is trembling. Since he went to the Ming Dynasty with Prince Su Hauge, he has led his subordinates to help Hauge break through many fortresses, but his own subordinates have also suffered a lot of casualties. small.

It was planned that after the triumphant return, there would be a reward, but how could he have thought that in today's battle, more than half of his soldiers and horses were lost. He sat on the horse, bowed his head in thought, and peeped at Hauge in front of him from time to time, There are fifteen buckets in my heart, up and down, uneasy.

In the battle of Haoge, there were more than [-] casualties, most of which were left to the Ming army. Only a few escaped and returned. There were nearly [-] Qing warriors who fled with the brigade. However, these people Will return to the team soon.

Fortunately, there were more than three hundred casualties of the Zhenglan Banner warriors under his command, which made him very uncomfortable. Thinking about the strength of the army in his own banner, it was much weaker, how should he face his father after returning.

As for the life and death of He Chenggong and those Han soldiers, he didn't care. Even if they were all dead, what did it matter to Hauge?

What made him most uncomfortable was that in this battle, those who retreated were a little flustered, and their horses suffered huge losses. They rode two horses, especially the warriors in the Zhenglan Banner, most of them had three horses together.

He led more than 3000 people this time, that is, more than 7000 war horses, but the ones that were withdrawn, after a rough inspection, only had more than [-] horses, and there were actually nearly [-] war horses missing.

"Hey……"

Hauge sighed silently, only feeling an abnormal tightness in his chest.
