Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 375 Ambush
Even hunks like Wu Sangui and Zu Dashou were stunned. Is this Fan Wencheng really so powerful?When the two armies were in a melee, could he install a spy to infiltrate the Ming army, and the information would be delivered so quickly?
It is easy for a spy to infiltrate the enemy camp, but to gain the trust of the enemy, and then steal valuable information, it takes skill, means and time, but now this spy has immediate results, and the information sent is so timely, its value is even more insignificant Having said that, it turned out to be the time, route and location of the false emperor Zhu Yousong's trip, is it true or not?What a coincidence?

Wu Sangui and Zu Dashou were full of suspicion. They couldn't believe it. Such important information would definitely be impossible for ordinary people to get their hands on, let alone the spies who just got in. The target is Ma Bao and Zu Keyong.

Then, the two of them started thinking wildly: These two generals are actually undercover agents of the Qing court?It was hidden so deep that even we were deceived. So the former Ma Bao killed people in Luoyang, fell into the city and fled and almost died. He was playing tricks, so when did Zu Keyong get bought by the Tartars?
If this is the case, is there still a need to feign defeat in today's battle?If this is the case, do we still need to send spies to infiltrate the Ming army?wrong……

Soon the two overthrew the assumption in their hearts, because many things happened later proved that such an assumption was not true. For example, Ma Bao defected to Zhu Yousong first. In the back, what is the role of an undercover agent?

Maybe it was the reminiscing with them before the battle today, which influenced the two of them, it is impossible...

When Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui were thinking wildly, Dorgon began to plan to ambush Zhu Yousong tomorrow.

Tomorrow's ambush battle Dorgon decided to go out in person, to relieve his hatred, to kill the enemy with his own hands, and asked Wu Sangui to pick out five thousand elites to accompany him, and picked out Sony, Tulai, and Tan Tai from the Daming Mansion to bring a banner of troops each, and let Wu Sangui , Suo Ni, Tulai and Tan Tai personally led a team to go there. A total of [-] elite soldiers, including the Han Baqi and Tartars, went out of the city overnight and rushed to a place called Sanhe Town to ambush.

At this time, Hong Chengchou proposed to Dorgon to make this battle a big one. Tomorrow, he would not only ambush a false emperor Zhu Yousong, but also attack the Ming camp at the same time, making their officials difficult to care about, and no one could save anyone. Zhan Zong couldn't wipe out the 20 Ming army in one fell swoop, but also let them collapse.

This trick is even more damaging, and it is worthy of being the executioner who suppressed the peasant army. Hong Chengchou surrendered to the Tartars and became a traitor.

"Master Hong's plan, what do you think?" Dorgon now obeyed Fan Wencheng's words, and asked his Mr. Fan about military affairs before making a decision. This is what he learned from Huang Taiji.

After thinking about it, Fan Wencheng thought it was feasible. Dorgon was overjoyed, and immediately asked the two princes Haoge and Jierhalang to lead 5000 troops to the Ming camp tomorrow morning, and let Zu Dashou lead the remaining [-] troops from the Gaogang camp. The men and horses cooperated with the two princes to attack the Ming camp. At that time, nearly [-] troops from the three groups attacked the Ming camp. Even if the news of Zhu Yousong's ambushes in Sanhe Town spread to the Ming camp, it was impossible for them to send troops to rescue the king. Come on, in this way, Zhu Yousong can't escape with his wings.The remaining tens of thousands of horses were led by Hong Chengchou to guard the Daming Mansion.

Dorgon is worthy of being a military strategist, and the arrangements are perfect.

Everyone praised it, but Wu Sangui was the only one who was not without worries, and bravely put forward his own opinion, "My lord, the little king is bold, is the news accurate about the puppet emperor leaving the camp to check the terrain in Sanhe town tomorrow? We just sneaked in, Then I got such important information, the false emperor was full of tricks, and the five kings were all annihilated because of his tricks, what if..."

"Nothing in case." Before Dorgon could speak, Fan Wencheng interrupted him, saying confidently, "Don't worry, my lord. No matter how scheming Zhu Yousong is, he would never have imagined that what he just agreed upon has already reached us. If 2 people attack him in an ambush, even if the false emperor has three heads and six arms, he will still be doomed. Let Zhu Yousong experience tomorrow's battle Taste the taste of annihilation!"

When Fan Wencheng talked about his pride, Dorgon and others laughed, as if they had succeeded.

At the second watch of the day, Dorgon scattered his tents and prepared to go.

Dorgon and Fan Wencheng never revealed the details of the spies. Wu Sangui and Zu Dashou were very puzzled, but they didn't dare to ask more, for fear of arousing Dorgon and Fan Wencheng's suspicion again.

At three o'clock, the two camps of the Qing army at Daming Mansion and Gaogang moved into action. After the battle meal, it was almost four o'clock, and the spies sent back said that the area around Sanhe town was still the same, and no Ming army was found. spies.

But Fan Wencheng was cautious, and still ordered the march without torches, the horseshoes were wrapped in cloth, and the animals were all strangled to prevent their mouths from neighing. The 2 Qing army night tour giant snake quickly moved to Sanhe Town...

The big tent of the Ming camp, that is, Zhu Yousong's imperial tent, all the generals persuaded Zhu Yousong to go to Sanhe Town to check the terrain tomorrow.

"Your Majesty, Sanhe Town is located in the northwest corner of Daming Mansion. It is more than eighty miles away from here. The terrain is complicated, and it is very close to Daming Mansion. It is enough to go deep into the enemy's rear and spy on military affairs. Your Majesty is the body of Wan Cheng. , Don’t give up your life easily.”

"Yes, Your Majesty, if the Tartars find out, the consequences will be disastrous, please think twice, Your Majesty."

Zhu Yousong said disapprovingly: "I decided to go there because of the complex terrain there. Dorgon is cunning, and Fan Wencheng, who is good at strategy, is assisted. Without surprise soldiers, it is difficult to win. The matter is very important. I must go there in person. You don't have to worry, how can the Tartars know what I just decided? Even if they find out my whereabouts tomorrow, it will be too late to use troops. The sword will cut him under the horse. I will leave early tomorrow, and I will be back in the afternoon at the latest. I have made up my mind, so there is no need to say more, Qing."

No one can change Zhu Yousong's decision, and it has been proved again today.

Lu Jiude, Huang Degong, Zheng Hongkui, and Liu Zhaoji couldn't persuade them, and they all suggested that they should bring more strong soldiers to accompany them on the trip tomorrow, but Zhu Yousong didn't accept it either, "I'm here to check the terrain, not to fight. There are many people with big goals, isn't it the same as sending a letter to Dorgon and the others? I will travel lightly and lightly, with Jinhua and Jiaoer accompanying me, three people and three riders are enough."
