Chapter 203 Ma Zhan died, year 27
In the 12th year of Chongzhen, on February 23, in the southeast of Zunhua.

Yue Tuo was seriously ill and vomited blood, so he stayed in the camp to recuperate. He sent Anping Beldudu and Fuguo Gong Mazhan to lead the army to Santun camp to test the defenses of Xifengkou and Qingshankou.

Sun Chuanting seized the opportunity and laid an ambush ahead of time. After the Qing army's vanguard had passed, he personally led the Fubiao Battalion and two troops of Cao Bianjiao and He Renlong to ambush the Qing army's central army.

The generals of Liaodong also came rushing from Santun camp, with Wang Tingchen's department as the vanguard, stumbling the front army horses of the Qing army, preventing them from returning to help.

At the same time, Chen Xinjia also led the Xuan army out of Qian'an to attack the rear of the Qing army. Zhang Cheng, Wang Pu and other generals rushed to kill them bravely. Duke Mazhan was shot dead on the spot.

Aixinjueluo Mazhan, the sixth son of Daishan, Prince Lilie of the Qing Dynasty, grandson of Qing Taizu Nurhachi, nephew of slave chieftain Huang Taiji, official residence and assistant state prince.

In September of the 11th year of Chongzhen, he followed Baylor Yuetuo to conquer the Ming Dynasty, and entered from Qiangziling, which destroyed the border city.

Finally, on February 12, 23th year of Chongzhen, he was bravely killed by Ming general Zhang Cheng at the age of 27.

In this battle, the Ming army beheaded more than a thousand heads of the Qing army and captured more than [-] horses. It was a big victory!

It is a pity that the Qing army was only probing, and did not escort the captive people to go with them. Although it was a great victory, it failed to rescue the suffering people.

After the war, Sun Chuanting and Chen Xinjia jointly reported the news of the victory. Lieutenant General Zhang Chengzhen of Jiexun wrote a special book about Zhang Chengzhen's beheading of Ma Zhan, thinking that Zhang Cheng should take credit for it.

…………

On February 24, more than [-] cavalry from Dorgon and Hauge's troops of the Qing army rushed to Qian'an for a long distance when the Ming army attacked Dudu's Qing troops. Yang Guozhu was ordered to stick to it, but the slaves failed.

Later, Zu Dashou, the commander-in-chief of the Liaodong vanguard, came to help and beheaded more than [-] heads of slaves and thieves.

After Dorgon retreated, he turned to attack Yongping, and returned to the army to join forces with Abatai to attack Fengrun. Fortunately, General Hu Dawei of Shanxi, and Yang Dezheng, Deputy General of Yutian, etc., defended well, and the slave soldiers lasted for a long time. Can't attack, retreat.

On February 28, Zu Dashou, the vanguard general, joined the Liaodong soldiers in Luanzhou. Since then, the Liaodong soldiers have been under the command of Zu Dashou.

At this time, most of the Qing army and the captured Ming people and goods were stationed between Yutian and Fengrun. On the second day of March, after Fengrun, they slowly moved to Qian'an.

On the seventh day of March, Belle Dudu Dudu of the Qing Army Anping led a Qing army to attack Yongping, failed to overcome, then turned to attack Luanzhou, still failed, returned to Qian'an.

On the same day, Dorgon led the Qing soldiers to attack Qian'an in a surprise attack. At that time, Yang Guozhu and other Xuan troops were ordered to transfer out, and Qian'an was captured.

…………

On the night of the eighth day of March, Sun Chuanting, Chen Xinjia and other troops led a hundred miles southwest of Qian'an, and attacked the Qing army's camp at night.

At that time, Qin soldiers Cao Bianjiao, He Renlong, Zuo Guangxian and others had already entered the right camp of the Qing army. Hauge was forced to lead the troops out of the camp. Only when he was able to stabilize himself, he immediately organized the Qing army to fight back.

Abatai's left wing was more vigilant. They found the Ming army when the Chinese army was attacked and organized defense immediately, but they just held the camp and were unable to rescue Yuetuo's Chinese army for the time being.

The Qing soldiers did not know how many people participated in the night attack on the Ming army, but they saw fires flickering everywhere in the camps, and all the camps were in a panic. Yue Tuo insisted on wearing armor to go into battle when he was sick, climbed to a high place, looked around, and fought together. Black smoke rose.

All of a sudden, a Ming army came rushing towards him like a ghost from the world, the sound of "bang bang" could not be heard, and came straight to his big tent of the Chinese army.

Yue Tuo's subordinate Jia Lazhang Jing Humin led dozens of Qing soldiers and rushed to stop the Ming army, but was stopped by Zhang Cheng's sentry chief Chen Zheng led more than 200 elite cavalry, and the two sides fought together.

Zhang Cheng saw that more than 300 steps away from the golden dragon banner in front of him, a Qing general in gilt armor was standing on a high place, looking around at the surrounding battles. From a distance, there were only dozens of people around him. Guarded by Qing soldiers.

Zhang Cheng led Chen Zhong, Wei Zhice and the Zhongjun sentry against two hundred fine cavalry, and rushed over. Not far away, Zhang Guodong kept charging to Zhang Cheng's left side, but he never dared to leave Zhang Cheng's eyes.

He had persuaded Zhang Cheng earlier not to commit a dangerous situation, and he and Chen Zheng would lead the night attack, while Zhang Cheng would stay in the rear to protect Xuanda governor Chen Xinjia, but Zhang Cheng insisted on personally leading him and others to attack the Qing army at night. big camp.

Therefore, Zhang Guodong was always concerned about Zhang Cheng's safety, and always guarded him on his left side. At this time, he also saw that Zhang Cheng was about to rush towards the golden dragon flag in the middle of the Qing army's camp.

He yelled loudly to greet his fine cavalry to run to the big flag from the left, and from a distance, he saw hundreds of Qing soldiers running towards a high platform next to the big dragon flag.

After Zhang Guodong greeted him, he led the first and second generals to meet the Qing soldiers and stopped them, while the third general under his command, led by the general Tong Shoushan, rushed straight to the high platform without stopping. go.

Chen Zhong and others rushed ahead of Zhang Cheng, and a burst of three-eyed blunderbuss broke through the defense line of the Qing soldiers in front of him, and rushed straight to Yue Tuo's place. The knife and stick in his hand were covered with blood, and he roared loudly, looking like a madman .

Yue Tuo saw Zhang Cheng rushing from a distance, and couldn't help but feel excited. Several Ba Yala guards beside him hurriedly brought the horses and called Fu Yuetuo to get on the horses.

With his current situation, he can't fight on horseback, not to mention that the Ming army charging on the opposite side looks extremely ferocious from a distance.

"Zhongzi, Zhice, look at that slave chief, take him down for me..." Zhang Cheng yelled angrily.

Chen Zhong and Wei Zhice hurriedly urged their horses upon hearing the words, and charged straight up.

There are four riders in front of Yue Tuo who are protecting Yue Tuo and are about to run away on horseback, and there are dozens of Ba Yala guards on both sides riding their horses, trying to prevent Zhang Cheng and others from chasing Yue Tuo.

Chen Zhong shouted loudly: "Xiao Linzi, Jin Hai, you protect the general."

Lin Fangping and Liu Jinhai agreed loudly, and the leaders of the team did not take care of Zhang Cheng at either side. They went straight to Yuetuo and chased after them. The guards from the Qing soldiers from both sides were all intercepted by Chen Zhong and Wei Zhice. .

There were only two riders rushing towards Zhang Cheng. They each threw a javelin at [-] paces. Zhang Cheng dodged one, but was shot by the other javelin at the head of the horse's crotch. inside the head.

The horse neighed, and fell to the ground. Zhang Cheng was thrown forward by the forward rush of the horse. Still holding the knife and stick in his hand, he rolled on the ground twice before he stabilized his figure. .

Before he could look back at the situation behind him, he saw that thirty steps away, the Qing general in gilt armor also fell from the saddle bridle of his war horse, and before he landed, it seemed that a mouthful of bright red sprayed out.

Without haste to think about it, Zhang Cheng, who had just stood up, swooped forward a few steps, and at the same time concentrated all his strength on his waist, and suddenly stood still.

"kill!"

With a loud shout, he twisted his waist vigorously from left to right, pouring all his strength from his waist to his right arm, and threw the knife stick in his hand forward. Due to the excessive force, he fell to the ground again.

I saw the already heavy knife stick flying out of Zhang Cheng's hand, piercing the night wind in early spring, whistling with a slight wind sound, and flying towards the back of the slave chief Yuetuo who was squatting on the ground in front of him.
