From the 13th to the 25th, the two sides fought and talked while waiting for reinforcements. A more brutal battle was about to come.

When Jinzhou was in danger, Governor Yuan Chonghuan led Zu Dashou and others to garrison Ningyuan, but they insisted on not rescuing and refused to send reinforcements. However, Mangui resolutely led his army from Qiantun in the rear, and together with the commander-in-chief You Shilu reinforced Jinzhou, they marched on the 16th

When they arrived at Yanli Mountain, they encountered Hou Jin's partial force protecting the grain and were surrounded. This partial force was led by Da Beile Mang Gurtai, Bele Zir Harang, Ajige, Yue Tuo, Sahalian and Hauge.

A powerful force, its strength is no less than that of the Manchu and Gui armies.

Man Gui was the first warrior in the Ming army. He took the lead in charging towards the enemy, and the two sides launched a fierce field battle. The Ming army fought bravely and killed many people, but Man Gui had the upper hand. Although Man Gui repelled the enemy, there were also casualties among the troops.

So he led his troops to Ningyuan. After discovering Mangui, on the 28th, Huang Taiji led the Eight Banners army across Jinzhou to attack Ningyuan. Mangui personally went out of the city to attack, and led the Ming army to camp two miles east of Ningyuan City, with his back against the city wall.

, lined up guns and artillery, and stood ready. Seeing that the Ming army was in order and with high morale, the Jin soldiers hesitated to attack and retreated to the mountains to wait and see.

Three of the four ruling Baylors, Daishan, Amin and Manggurtai, advocated retreat. Huang Taiji insisted on fighting. He personally led his army to rush towards the Ming army. Daishan, Amin and Manggurtai saw this.

They had no choice but to follow up in a hurry. The two sides started a life-and-death struggle outside Ningyuan City.

Man Gui led his lieutenant general You Shiwei and others out of the city to meet them, which was quite lethal. Man Gui was also seriously injured. The Jin army also suffered heavy casualties. Jierhalang, one of the eight great Beile, was seriously injured, and Sahalian, the third son of Dai Shan, the great Beile, was seriously injured.

The fourth son Wakda was seriously injured, and he was killed in the guerrilla attack on Jueluobai Mountain, Beiyu Bashi and others. Seeing that he could not gain any advantage, Huang Taiji had to order the temporary withdrawal of troops.

At this time, Zhao Lijiao, who was guarding Jinzhou, saw that the main force of the enemy outside the city had left and his troops were slack. He suddenly opened the city gate and led his troops to attack the enemy camp. After a while of killing, he quickly withdrew his troops back to the city to support Ningyuan in the rear. Huang Huang

Taiji felt that he was in danger of being attacked from both sides, so he withdrew his troops from Ningyuan and attacked Jinzhou again.

On the fourth day of June, Huang Taiji led his army back to the outside of Jinzhou City and launched another crazy attack on Jinzhou. The Ming army still used "cannons, bows and arrows, and bricks" to serve, and dealt a heavy blow to the Jin army.

The Jin soldiers suffered heavy casualties, had no food or drink, and were exposed to the hot sun. Their morale was very low. However, Huang Taiji, who was red-eyed at the loss, lost his own face and refused to withdraw his troops regardless of the life and death of the soldiers. He forced the soldiers to attack the city and fight.

From morning to evening, Huang Taiji got nothing but corpses, so he had to order the troops to retreat.

This battle was called the "Great Victory of Ningjin" by the Ming Dynasty, but the Jin Dynasty only fought for Jinzhou and did not mention Ningyuan. It can be seen that the Jin army regarded its opponent in this battle as the general of Pingliao, Zhao Lijiao, rather than the governor of Liaodong, Yuan Chonghuan.

.

In the Battle of Jinzhou, the Jin army suffered over 10,000 casualties and fought for miles with corpses stinking to the point that no one in the Jin Kingdom wanted to mention this tragic battle. Huang Taiji also suffered a huge defeat because of this battle.

I don't want to mention it, so for many years, the Battle of Jinzhou has been almost a forbidden area among the Jin Army, and no one dares to mention it. Now Ning Wan, I boldly bring it up, and use this to urge Huang Taiji not to attack Jinzhou to avoid repeating it.

The repeated mistakes made Huang Taiji hesitate. The battle was so tragic back then, and now he is very scared when he thinks about it.

"This time, that time!"

Just when Huang Taiji hesitated to speak, Tong Yangxing stood up and said forcefully: "Back then, the Ming army had a lot of troops defending Jinzhou, and there were famous generals in charge, and there was a steady stream of reinforcements from the rear. But today, the Ming army is trapped in the isolated city. Once again,

The soldiers came to the rescue, and the general took charge. But we are the masters of victory. With the power of victory, we attack a city that can only be defended by thousands of old and weak soldiers. Why not attack! King Khan, don’t hesitate, this time

We are about to capture Jinzhou and march into Ningyuan to achieve great success!"

When he heard that veterans like the consort in the west room also supported the attack on Jinzhou, Azig became active again and shouted: "The consort is right, we get up wherever we fall. The city of Jinzhou used to be undefeatable, but today it is easy to win."

!Why did Xianhan raise his army? It’s not because we, the Jurchen clan, can no longer be bullied by the Ming Dynasty! Now we have defeated the Ming army and annihilated all the Ming Dynasty’s soldiers and horses outside the pass. All his cities are now as if they were gone.

Women who are wearing clothes usually lie in front of us. If we don’t take it, God will be angry with us!"

"Twelve Baylor, don't forget, we don't have siege equipment!" Seeing that Azige and Tong Yangxing still wanted to attack Jinzhou, Ning Wan and I were anxious and reminded him of the most practical issue, that is, whether the Jin army can

There are no siege engines.

Dorgon said disapprovingly: "There are plenty of tools in Dalinghe City. We worked all night to make enough to siege the city. These tools are not a problem."

"Yes, siege equipment is not a problem. Ning Wanwo, please stop making alarmist comments here!" Azig glared at Ning Wanwo.

Ning Wan was startled and looked towards Fan Wencheng and Bao Cheng first, but they shook their heads at him and signaled him not to persuade him any further.

After Ning Wan, I sighed and had no choice but to say to Huang Taiji: "If King Khan really wants to attack Jinzhou, I can talk to you. However, I think it is best to send a group of troops to test it. If the Ming army in the city is well prepared, what will happen to me?"

To avoid unnecessary losses, King Khan had better withdraw his troops and go back."

"You're the only one who talks too much!" When Azig saw that Ning and I were still talking there, he was so angry that he wanted to rush up and kick him.

Hu Daxian suddenly emerged from among the surrendered generals and said to Huang Taiji swornly: "King Khan, there are no soldiers at all in Jinzhou City. The basic strength is only two or three thousand regiment training and guard troops. Qiu Hejia recruited civilian men and young men to help.

Defending won't help. I'll put it bluntly, Jinzhou is indeed very easy to fight."

Huang Taiji perked up: "Are you sure that there are only two or three thousand regiments and guards in the city?"

Hu Daxian nodded solemnly: "The general has confirmed it, King Khan can rest assured! If the king doesn't believe the general, he might as well ask Mr. Zhang. He knows best how many soldiers and horses there are in the city." After saying that, the court said with ill intentions.

Zhang Chun looked over.

"shame!"

Zhang Chun was so angry that he picked up a tea bowl and threw it at Hu Daxian. Hu Daxian stepped aside and the bowl hit Ah Shan, which made Ah Shan prepare to hit him in anger.

Huang Taiji was overjoyed. Didn't Zhang Chun's attack prove that what Hu Daxian said was true? There really were no soldiers and horses in Jinzhou City!

God help me!

If you don’t take the empty city, you will be blocked by it in the future!

Huang Taiji frowned, and there were people from his ancestors over there clamoring for him to avenge Zu Dashou. It was not easy for Huang Taiji to get a good general like Zu Dashou. He was going to use him as a vanguard to conquer the Ming Dynasty, but he was actually sent to be killed by Qiu Hejia.

Damn! The anger stems from his heart. If he doesn't avenge his ancestor's birthday, how will he deal with the surrendered generals?

Dai Shan observed the words and expressions on the side and knew that Huang Taiji was moved, so he struck while the iron was hot: "Since Jinzhou is heavily guarded, I asked the Khan King to lead his men to attack. Firstly, he can take the wealth in the city to offset the losses of the banners; secondly, he can also occupy Jinzhou."

, use Jinzhou as the base, and then attack Ningyuan; come the third time, we can also wash away the humiliation of the Ningjin battle."

Huang Taiji no longer hesitated, but he was not impulsive. Instead, he ordered Azige: "Ajige, tomorrow you will lead the red flag and command the four thousand Han troops to descend to attack Jinzhou!"

Azig was overjoyed and responded solemnly: "My brother accepts the order and will dedicate Jinzhou City to the Khan King tomorrow!"

Jierharang saw that Huang Taiji decided to attack Jinzhou, but he had no choice. Fortunately, Huang Taiji asked Azig to lead the attack and did not ask him to take the Zhenglan flag. In this way, even if there were casualties, it would still be a matter of setting a red flag. As long as the Zhenglan flag has the strength

If there is no loss, he doesn't bother to care whether Jinzhou fights or not.

When their brothers first attacked Jinzhou, Dorgon and Duoyi were also very excited. The two brothers discussed whether to allocate a few Niulu from their banners to put up red flags so that Azig could successfully capture Jinzhou.

At that moment, Azig received the order to mobilize 4,000 Han soldiers to surrender, while Dorgon led people into the city to get the equipment of the Ming army, and asked the Han army craftsmen and soldiers accompanying the army to rush to make siege equipment overnight. The other banners made

Be prepared accordingly, the camp is extremely busy.

When the Jin soldiers heard that they were going to attack Jinzhou tomorrow, the city was filled with food and wealth, and there were still several Han people and few defenders, so they were all very excited. After days of fighting, the casualties were too great and the gains were little, so Jinzhou City was needed.
