Chapter 472 Five days later, we will pave Huang County!

Late at night, Dengzhou City.

The moonlight is very thin and light, and it is very cold. The sky is always gray, and the moonlight seems to never penetrate thick clouds. The entire Dengzhou City is shining with such moonlight, and it is so pale that it makes people feel creepy, as if a lonely ghost is about to appear. The angrily wind lamp sways under the eaves, emitting a dismal light. When the wind blows, the angrily wind lamp sways left and right, and it also seems to be the palace lantern to welcome the bride in hell.

There are no figures on the streets. Even in the most remote streets, there are no figures. Only a large number of Tartar soldiers stand at the intersection. Their figures are pale and pale by the moonlight, and their shadows are dragged very long, just like demons that have just emerged from hell. The light reflected by the weapons falls in the darkness that cannot be shining on the moonlight, and it keeps shaking, as if it is a special symbol to summon the devil of hell.

In the square in front of the governor's yamen, there are many wooden poles with dozens of heads hanging on it. The heads were just cut down, and some were still bleeding. The blood dyed the wooden poles red. If someone familiar here, you will see that one of the heads was from Park Dacheng, one from Yuan Anbang, one from Wang Tingrui, and the other from Zeng Hualong, the former governor of Dengzhou Prefecture.

It was originally a hot summer night, but because of the existence of these heads, it seemed to turn into a winter night. The entire Dengzhou City seemed to be trapped in an ice cellar, and there was no movement at all. Well, no, there was movement. The movement was still coming from the governor's yamen. It seemed that someone was yelling desperately, but was pulled by someone, and finally he had to stop screaming with difficulty.

In the governor's yamen, there were a large number of angrily lanterns under the eaves. The lights looked sallow and yellow, just alternated with the pale moonlight, reflecting a bleak yellow light. The Tartar soldiers standing outside the chamber were long and long by the lights behind them, their eyes seemed to be green, and they also seemed to be lonely ghosts.

In the huge chamber, there was only one person sitting there quietly. There was no light in the chamber. There was only the lights and moonlight shining from outside. Standing in the chamber, you could just see the moon. The moonlight fell on the ground, and it was also pale and without any anger. There was a man who did not sit in the place where the light was reflected, but sat in the darkest place where the light could not be shined.

This person is Dorgon.

He had completely returned to his calm, and there was no sign of any emotional fluctuation on his face.

Only Duoduo was still going crazy and wanted to seek revenge on Zhang Zhun overnight, and kept ordering people to kill. As a result, Dorgon had to drag him back and then give him a bowl of ecstasy soup, so that Duoduo slowly calmed down.

Duoduo lost his mind.

The losses of the three Niulu made Duoduo unable to control his emotions. He ordered the killing of Park Dacheng, Yuan Anbang, Wang Tingrui, and the killing of Zeng Hualong and others to vent his anger. Zeng Hualong and others did not agree to surrender to the Tartars, but was placed under house arrest by Ruan Dacheng and then handed over to the Tartars. Duoduo was furious and killed them all. All the heads were hung up for public display.

When Dorgon learned that the entire army of three Niulu was wiped out, he was also shocked and angry, and even a little scared. Three Niulu, three Niulu! It was not three Great Jin warriors, not thirty, not three hundred, but about nine hundred! It is true that some Niulu were not satisfied. However, Dorgon led the Niulu to the south, they were definitely full. No matter what, he would never have imagined that the elite of the three Niulu would be gone.

Huang County, a place he had never noticed before, had such a powerful existence. It was incredible that when Yuan Chonghuan was in Ningyuan, the Jin army came out in full swing and tried to take Ningyuan down, but in the end Nurhaci was injured. However, even so, the Jin army did not have the precedent of the three Niulu being wiped out.

When Dorgon thought of this, he felt heavy pressure. It was not from the pressure of the enemy, but from the pressure of the internal pressure. The core of the Great Jin Dynasty's consistent policy was to only take advantage of the advantages and not suffer losses, and to use clever battles to support the war. The purpose of their battle was to plunder more population, materials and wealth, thereby strengthening themselves. At the same time, avoiding large losses as much as possible.

The two invasions fully demonstrated this strategy. In order to avoid the Ningyuan defense line that could not be attacked from the front, the Tatars worked hard to expedition and entered the core hinterland of the Ming Kingdom for a long distance. In fact, the losses of the Jin army were only a few hundred people during the two invasions. The casualties were basically divided by each Niulu. No Niulu had a particularly serious loss, and no Niulu was completely annihilated.

Now, he is all three Niulu destroyed!

The impact of this matter is too great. Maybe he, the banner owner of Zhengbai Banner, will be deprived. Huang Taiji has long disliked him, Dorgon, and how could he let him go with such a good opportunity? If Huang Taiji took the opportunity to do something, other Eight Banner nobles would not be able to speak for Dorgon. It was really that the loss of San Niulu was too great.

"Have Burgidai been back?"

Dorgon suddenly asked outside.

"Master Beller, haven't come back yet."

Someone outside the door answered carefully.

“I haven’t come back yet…”

Dorgon frowned and said to himself.

Burgidai is also a Niulu Zhangjing, and is also a member of Zhengbai Banner. The ones who were brought to Dengzhou City by Dorgon this time were all elites of Zhengbai Banner. Burgidai is also a warrior with outstanding military achievements. However, it was this guy who led his large army and his whereabouts were unknown for several days. Until now, there is no accurate news about him.

Dorgon felt that his mind was in extreme swelling. Although there was no information that Burgidai and his subordinates might have been destroyed, the information that the three Niulus disappeared today came, and Dorgon's ominous premonition became even stronger. All three Niulus may have been completely wiped out, let alone one Niulu?

"Who was the last person Burgidai came into contact with?" Dorgon asked gloomyly.

"Kakh's Reply." The person outside the door replied carefully.

"Call him!" Dorgon said coldly.

"Abide by the order!" The person outside the door hurriedly agreed and sent the order.

A moment later, a Niu Lu Zhangjing, whose nervous tongue was a little trembling, appeared in front of Dorgon. It was Kake's reply. Perhaps because he was too nervous, after coming in, he did not see Dorgon's position clearly, so he hurriedly knelt down and bowed. As a result, it was not until the salute that he realized that Dorgon was not sitting at the top, but sitting on the side of himself. He suddenly started to sweat and trembled on the spot. The sound of teeth fighting could even be heard by the Tartar soldiers outside the chamber.

Tonight, the entire Dengzhou City was shrouded in an extremely tense atmosphere. This atmosphere was of course due to the news of the defeat ahead. Although Dorgon ordered a strict ban on spreading, the Tartars, who were over ten men, basically knew it. The three Niulu were wiped out by the army, which was too shocked to them. In addition, Duoduo was angry and killed dozens of people in the heads, and these Tartar leaders could not help but be nervous.

Seeing his subordinates so nervous, Dorgon realized that he was too emotional. This was not a good thing. So he tried his best to control his tone and said warmly: "Kakk-Du Li, don't be afraid, I just learned about some of the situation from you. If you answered truthfully, what did Burgidai do?"

Kakedali hurriedly said, "Go back to Mr. Beile, Burgidai is... chasing Xu Qingluan from the Sinxiang Sect."

Dorgon said slowly: "Was anyone's order at that time?"

Kakdali said, "No. At that time, Jiala was not here, and only the two of us left the city. After we repelled the attack from the Singxiang Sect, I withdrew my troops back to the city. He found that there was a very beautiful woman in the Singxiang Sect's team, so he took his men to follow him."

Dorgon said slowly: "Did Burjidai take his own initiative to chase Xu Qingluan?"

Kakedali knew that his answer would be related to the life and death of the Burgidai family and could not be neglected. However, Burgidai did take his own initiative to pursue the woman from the Wink Xiang Sect. He did not dare to hide this matter at all. In desperation, he had to say: "Yes, he went there by himself. Master Beile, I think he wanted to capture Xu Qingluan and present it to Master Beile. I heard that he was a very beautiful woman, more beautiful than Miss Nishi Gong..."

Dorgon shouted angrily: "Bastard! Nonsense!"

Kake hurriedly shut up, then sweated coldly. He suddenly realized that he had accidentally made a taboo. The Western Palace Concubine Jin he mentioned was Huang Taiji's concubine, Bumubutai, who would be the future Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. For some reason, Dorgon had a good impression of this Western Palace Concubine Jin. He actually said that there was a woman more beautiful than Bumubutai. Isn't this seeking death?

Fortunately, Dorgon did not blame him, but said quietly: "You go!"

Kakdali hurriedly turned around and went.

Because he was too nervous, when he left the door, Kakdali tripped by the threshold and almost fell down. However, no one of the Tartar soldiers outside the chamber thought there was anything wrong with Kakdali. In this situation tonight, even if Batulu arrived, he would probably be very nervous. Tonight is indeed a tormented day!

After Kakedali left, Dorgon stood there, and seemed to be a little lost. This loss of consciousness had nothing to do with the war in front of him, but with the woman Kakedali mentioned just now. But soon, Dorgon's thoughts returned to the situation in front of him.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, Dorgon slapped hard on the coffee table.

The Tartar soldiers outside the chamber were shocked, but breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that in their opinion, Dorgon lost his temper, which was a good thing. Since he learned that the three Niulu had been wiped out, Dodo was like a madman, yelling and going to find Zhang Zhun to avenge him overnight. Dorgon's face was gloomy and he never spoke, as if he was a condensed rock.

In the eyes of these Tartar soldiers, after Dodo vented, his emotions gradually stabilized. People are like this. As long as they vented, their emotions became much more stable. This kind of venting, whether it was yelling, fighting, killing, or asking a woman to vent, as long as they could vent. However, Dorgon always pressed his anger in his heart and had no intention of venting. Thinking of the arousal accumulated by Dorgon, how fierce it would be, the surrounding Tartars were trembling.

Now, Dorgon's anger finally burst out. The damn Burgidai finally did a good thing. He used his mistakes to induce Dorgon to vent his anger.

"Come! Send the order!"

"Drain all of Burgidai's family to slaves!"

Sure enough, Dorgon shouted angrily.

"Abide by the order!"

The Tartar soldiers outside the door had long guessed that this was the result, and were not surprised at all.

Burgidai went to chase a woman without orders, and even led to his entire army being wiped out. This ending was not surprising. In the Great Jin army, the military orders were very strict. Otherwise, none of the three Niulu Tatars could have escaped. Obviously, Haninga did not issue an order to retreat, so no one dared to withdraw. Even if they were all killed in battle, they could not withdraw.

The surrounding Tartars hoped that after Dorgon vented, his face would no longer be so gloomy and terrible. However, Dorgon's venting was very short. After dealing with Burgidai's family, he immediately had a gloomy face. So, the Tartars outside the conference hall became worried again.

Suddenly, a horse was approaching.

Dorgon said calmly: "What's the matter?"

Response to the horse: "Belle, someone reported that near Beiqu Mountain, many warriors of our tribe were found to be unfortunately killed, and there were about 300 people... There is news that they were ambushed by Zhang Zhun..."

The Tartars outside the chamber were shocked when they heard the report of the horse detective. Oh no, Burgidai was indeed killed. He died at Zhang Zhun's hands! Huang County lost three Niulus, and Beiqu Mountain lost another Niulu... The Great Jin army had just arrived in Dengzhou City and disappeared... This is a heavy loss that has not been suffered since the founding of the Great Jin Kingdom!

Inside the conference hall, Dorgon's face turned slightly blue and he said coldly: "You go to the scene to confirm in person! Then come back to report to me!"

Tanma agreed to go.

After the horse explorer left, Dorgon's cheek had been slightly distorted. Even with his patience, he was now on the verge of the outbreak. With the Niulu of Burgidai, he had a total of four Niulus, and the losses were in Zhang Zhun's hands. Since Nurhaci issued the Seven Hate and raised troops to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, the Jin army had never suffered such heavy losses.

Four Niulu, four Niulu! Four full Niulu! Nearly one thousand two hundred people! At the price of four Niulu, he could have driven the Ming army of 40,000 to 50,000 to run away all over the mountain. At the price of four Niulu, he could have broken through the Great Wall and plundered deep into the places close to the Yellow River. However, they were gone, and they all followed Amanurhaci!

Dorgon's ability to endure is indeed extraordinary. What Huang Taiji is most taboo is Dorgon's ability to control. However, such losses are too great, so great that Dorgon cannot accept it. He felt that his anger was spreading uncontrollably throughout his body and would burst out at any time.

"Tata Tower!"

At this moment, the sound of rapid and heavy footsteps came.

Dorgon's face gradually returned to normal and he slowly sat down.

A moment later, Duoduo appeared in the meeting room angrily, as if it was a hideous monster. His face was ashen and terrible as his eyes were even red, just like a hungry wolf who had eaten too much corpse.

Dorgon said calmly: "Stay well."

Duoduo tried his best to curb his anger and said deeply: "I heard that Burgidai was ambushed? None of them came back?"

Dorgon said calmly: "What does it mean that he hasn't come back? They are following Ahma."

Dodo did not have as good endurance as Dorgon. He waved his fists and shouted fiercely: "Let me go! I want to flatten Huang County! I want to capture Zhang Zhun and tear him apart! I want to razed Huang County, Shandong, and the entire Ming Dynasty to the ground!"

Dorgon said coldly: "Do you know how many defenders there are in Huang County? Do you know what kind of firearms are there in Zhang Zhun's hands? Do you know what kind of backing he has? Do you know where his reinforcements are? Do you know why our warriors are so serious?"

Duoduo shouted fiercely: "I don't care! I want to kill him!"

Dorgon said coldly behind, "We basically know nothing about Zhang Zhun's situation. How can we kill him? The military strategy is full of knowledge, know yourself and your enemy, and win every battle. We don't know anything now! If we kill out of the city overnight now, we will only suffer even greater losses!"

"If Zhang Zhun can kill you three Niulu, you can kill you five, ten, or even twenty Niulu! Are you going to destroy all the Enangu White Banners in Huang County? If you want to go, I won't stop you! But, you can take the Enangu White Banner away, and my Zhengbai Banner will not give you a soldier!"

Duoduo stopped hard and bit his lips hard.

Dorgon said coldly: "Now, the most important thing for us is to figure out why Zhang Zhun is so capable of fighting! I believe that the combat effectiveness of our three Niulu, even the Ming army of 30,000 cannot be wiped out. If you don't understand this, you will still be beaten up! Don't underestimate the Ming people, they are still talented, but their talents are not reused!"

Duoduo turned around with difficulty, his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he said fiercely: "Can we just let it go?"

Dorgon said coldly: "Do you think it's possible?"

Duoduo gritted his teeth and said, "How can we deal with this Zhang Zhun?"

Dorgon said slowly: "We know almost nothing about the situation in Huang County. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the firearms of Zhang Zhun's troops are very powerful. Our warriors were killed by their sharp firearms. Now, we must understand the situation in Huang County as much as possible. At the same time, we must prepare enough firearms."

Duoduo said angrily: "I'll take the red cannons!"

Dorgon said calmly: "Of course, the red cannon must be brought. But this is not enough. We need more people. We need more people. We need to add back the three lost Niulu."

Duoduo frowned and said, "The Emperor will not send troops to support us."

Dorgon said lightly: "We don't need his supplements. I have sent someone to pick up the tribesmen of Liugong Island and Shamen Island. In three days, they will arrive in Dengzhou City."
