Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 116
It's no wonder that Azig is full of resentment.

Do you think that Li Zicheng was aggrieved in Shanhaiguan in the past few months?

The Qing army is also very aggrieved!
After finally fighting, he took the lead in front of Shanhaiguan, wearing heavy armor and went straight to the North Water Gate of Shanhaiguan. Retiring Li Zicheng played a crucial role.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first achievement.

Afterwards, in the battles with the Dashun Army in Beijing City, although the two sides mostly engaged in artillery battles, he was always at the forefront in all battles, big or small, and won consecutive battles.

At the juncture of going south to compete for the deer, it is normal for such military exploits to be crowned king.

But it has not been a few days since he was crowned king.

Because Dorgon wanted to win people's hearts and clean up military discipline, he didn't even spend a few days in Beijing arrogantly and domineeringly. Before he had the opportunity to enjoy the prosperity of the Han people's country, he was sent up by a paper order.

Prince of England.

In Manchu, it directly means King Batulu, King of Warriors, and King of Heroes.

That is to say, it is really hard to shirk the title of the throne, otherwise, who would want to climb the snow and lie on the ice to fight in the savage woods where the savages don't shit.

Also because of this, Azig led the army to march at a relatively casual speed, and when they arrived in Shengjing, they stayed at the edge of the city for five days.

Let the soldiers who have also experienced hardships and bloody battles and traveled long distances relax.

That's why it was more than ten days longer than Zhu Youjian expected.

However, the fast horses of its vanguard quickly entered the Ningguta area and went straight to Ningguta City.

Soon, the city of Ningguta was in a mess, and the news that there was no living person except insects, snakes and rats reached Azig's ears.

When he heard the soldier who sent the message describe with some trepidation that they found several strange skeletons in the center of the inner city of Ninguta, Azig also gave him a very happy slap.

"Idiot! Wait for my army to arrive! One cannon will blow up those things! Let's see who it can harm!"

He talked about pride, but the fact that Ninggu Tower fell and that all the cattle records around Ninggu Tower were looted by savages made Azig order to speed up the march.

At the beginning of November, Azig led his army to Ninggu Tower, and he did what he said, under the watchful eyes of his soldiers, Zhao Bai's painstaking work was bombarded.

After the rotten bones flew all over the ground, Azig smiled boldly and counted the days for his soldiers.

"It's the beginning of winter now! There are still almost two months before the New Year's Eve! I don't want to talk about too much! The days of climbing ice and lying in the snow are as short as possible! Half a month to clean up the savages! Half a month to catch up! Go back! One month left to prepare for the New Year's Eve!"

All the bannermen laughed happily when they heard this.

Manchurians also have New Year's Day, but at first this festival was limited to one day on New Year's Day, and it was called 'Agneye Nengye'.

However, because the Later Jin regime entered Shenyang, the weak Manchu culture was sprinted by a huge amount of powerful Han culture, so when the Later Jin changed its name to the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Chinese New Year and the Han Chinese New Year were basically the same, and their own ethnicity There are also a large number of Chinese New Year projects that integrate Han culture, such as worshiping ancestors and praying for blessings.

Although running back, I can't enjoy the blessings in the newly captured Beijing.

But after this battle, you can go back to your hometown for the New Year.

Driven by this thought, the soldiers suddenly felt that the snow and cold wind around them were not so cold anymore.

In this way, the Azig army marched for another two days, and the forward of the army naturally discovered the fortifications of the first line of defense of the Zhenghei Banner.

While the trenches stretching for nearly [-] miles were spread out, thousands of people also worked hard to clear up all the vegetation in front of the trenches to reinforce the trenches, build watchtowers for observing the front line, and use them as heating fuel.

So finding a trench means being discovered by the Black Banner Army.

However, due to the scope of vision, the vanguard of the Azig Army did not have a glimpse of the whole trench.

But the picture of the trench has not been completed for a long time, it just looks like a lot of construction work.

And because it looked like rows of mounds and a few wooden towers to the naked eye, the vanguard officer of the Azig army immediately retreated excitedly, and told Azig after returning.

The savages are building fortifications more than a hundred miles away to stop the army, but it seems that the construction has just started not long ago, and not even a wall has been erected yet!Just piled up a few mounds and placed pieces of wooden horses!

Hearing that Azig was overjoyed, he took advantage of the situation and let the news go, encouraging the soldiers to march faster.

This may force the wildlings to rely on unformed fortifications to fight against the army!

But the savages will prepare in advance to resist the encirclement and suppression of the army, and they will also build fortifications, which also alerts Azig.

It turned out that what Dorgon said was all right.

But it's no big deal.

The Ming army is no more than a chicken and a dog. After all, they have found the savages. Let's pull the battle apart first and then make a decision on the spot!
Azig led the army for three days, and finally appeared in front of the Zhengheiqi trench under the heavy snow.

A total of more than 8000 troops set up camp, and Azig took people to look at the trenches of the Black Banner Army.

"Eh, it seems that these savages are useless. They probably stopped working on snowy days. The appearance at this time is exactly the same as what the servant saw when he first came!"

"Indeed, but there are not many savages in that ravine and behind the horses. They seem to have noticed my army's attack and have no intention of defending here."

Looking at the trench with some regret, Azig felt that his idea of ​​fighting to put down the wildling rebellion had failed.

"Stop camping first, bury pots and cook food, let the soldiers warm up and put on armor to prepare, and then call the people for future discussions."

The entourage on the side shouted.

Immediately, the smoke from cooking in Azig's army rose faintly.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help laughing when he saw it.

Coincidentally, in order to prevent surprise attacks, the elm cannons and prepackaged gunpowder in the Black Banner Army are distributed behind the [-]-mile defense line. Now that your army is gathered in one place, it is convenient for the Black Banner Army to use it first. The sled transports these to one place.

"What is Jiannu eating here! Come up and fight to the death!"

Karama expressed dissatisfaction with this.

Seeing his excited look, the scars on his face were congested and red, as if the blood was angry.

Ever since Zhu Youjian taught them the concept of simulated drills, a group of tribal leaders headed by Jia Lama who had nothing to do and had nothing to do led a few troops every day and began to practice offense and defense around the trench.

Fighting to be the defender from the beginning, stuffing a little gunpowder into the elm cannon and firing the cannon was extremely lively.

In the end, almost all of them turned over and became the offensive side, in order to find a way to avoid heavy casualties when storming the trenches.

Now the long-awaited Jiannu has finally arrived.

They are just waiting to prove the experience they have simulated as a defensive team.

"But our previous simulations were all based on what Wuert said. Before the attacker starts to attack the trenches, as the defender, he must be bombed for at least one round. Will Jiannu bomb us too?"

"Where's Wuert?"

"In the cave."

"Then let's hide for a while, and wait for the warriors watching the wind to see some movement."

Zhu Youjian was in the cave next to them, drinking tea listening to the words of Jia Lama and others.

If it wasn't for the offering from the North Korean Li family, he really wouldn't be able to drink this good tea.

As for the bombardment.

The cannons of later generations were somewhat weak against the trenches, which made the battle after the invention of the trenches much longer than the previous battles.

Cannons of the age
Wait until the wooden boards on the roof of the cave can leak some soil and it will be considered a big success for the Jiannu bombardment.
