Chapter 234 Dodo Withdrawal

The Qing army and infantry were mixed together and fled south one after another.

Behind them, more than 2,500 cavalrymen tried their best to open the gap, killed the rebels who were surrounded, and allowed Mandahai and others to escape.

The Ming army roared and massacred the enemy troops trapped in the formation, harvesting the lives of the Qing army.

The war lasted until the evening and gradually returned to peace. All the Qing troops trapped in the sea of ​​people were killed.

This elite Qing army that pursued the Ming army from Jiangnan to Shandong collapsed and collapsed under the attack of the Ming army and more than 100,000 rebels and the people.

The cheers sounded at the foot of Daze Mountain. The rebels who came to help the battle looked around the battlefield and saw the snow-covered earth full of Qing army corpses and blood-stained frozen soil, and suddenly they called out a wave of presumptuous calls.

The rebels waved their weapons and vented their joy. Since the massacre of Jinan, the people of Shandong defeated the arrogant Qing army on the land of Qilu for the first time and avenged their bloody revenge for their families.

This battle made everyone feel angry, and many people cheered and shed tears unconsciously.

In this battle, the Ming army defeated 15,000 elite Qing troops and beheaded more than 10,000 people on the battlefield of Daze Mountain.

Mandahai and others broke through and fled. The Ming army chased for more than 30 miles and was ambushed by rebels along the way. From Daze Mountain to Dongping, the Qing army buried their bodies all the way. The 15,000 Qing army had only 2,500 cavalry of the rear army, plus Mandahai and others, and a small number of front army fled.

After Mandahai rushed to Dongping, there were less than four thousand cavalry left by his side, and more than 11,000 people were all annihilated by the Ming army and the rebel army.

The Qing army did not dare to stay because they were afraid of being surrounded by the tide of Ming and rebels in the city. Mandahai fled south and retreated to Rizhao, Yizhou, and then he calmed down and wrote a letter to Dorgon to apologize.

When Mandahai retreated on the southern road, the Qing army had already captured Qingzhou City.

At this time, Jueluo Bahana and Yue Le had already discovered something was wrong. Zhao Ming's army was not in Qingzhou, so he hurriedly contacted Mandahai on the south road, but learned that Mandahai was ambushed in Laizhou, defeated by the Ming army, and fled south in a hurry.

This shocked Jueluo Bahana and Yue Le, worried that they would be surrounded, so they quickly gave up Qingzhou, withdrew to Jinan and wrote a letter to the Qing court.

The Daze Mountain victory was a major earthquake in Shandong. For a time, the rebel army rose up. The Qing army only occupied the prefectures and counties along Jinan and the canal, and the eastern and western Shandong areas, and all of them were all.

The rise of Shandong's rebel army also affected the areas in southern Hebei and eastern Henan. The northern land, which was ruled by the Qing Dynasty for more than two years, was in a turbulent trend, which immediately alerted the Qing Dynasty.

Huguang, outside Changsha City, the Qing army coalition camp.

After the autumn harvest last year, Duoduo obtained a military ration from Hubei, and the Qing army immediately launched an offensive, one to seize the entire Huguang, and the other to seize the autumn ration from Hunan.

When Zhao Ming attacked the Huai general, Duoduo led 80,000 troops and went south to Hunan again, with his troops aiming directly at Changsha.

This shocked He Tengjiao. While mobilizing troops into the city, he also sent a letter to Du Yinxi and asked Zhongzheng to rescue Changsha.

In November, Duoduo's army was unstoppable and advanced to the city of Changsha. He Tengjiao's generals Huang Chaoxuan and Zhang Xianbi fled without fighting and lost the front line of the Laodao River. The Qing army took the opportunity to attack Changsha. Fortunately, Ma Jinzhong and Hao Yaoqi led the bloody battle to repel the Qing army's attack and stabilize the city defense of Changsha.

In early December, Du Yinxi, who was asked for help from He Tengjiao, ignored his past grudges and persuaded Li Guo that Gao Yigong would go out of Yiling, while Du Yinxi led his army out of western Hunan. The two armies met in Changde, killed the Qing Dynasty's garrison and approached Yiyang.

At this time, in the Qing army camp, Duoduo was summoning generals to discuss military situations and analyzing the situation in the war in Huguang.

In the big tent, Kong Youdedao: "Huguang bandit army, He Tengjiao is not worth mentioning, Du Yinxi is a threat. Now Du Yinxi is approaching Yiyang and approaching Changsha. If you want to rescue He Tengjiao, Prince Yu might as well destroy Du Yinxi first. In my opinion, only by defeating Du Yinxi, the Changsha bandit army will inevitably abandon the city and flee."

Shang Kexi also said: "When Prince Yu attacks He Tengjiao, Du Yinxi will come to ask for help, but when the prince attacks Du Yinxi, He Tengjiao may not be able to save him. In this way, Du Yinxi can be solved first and then against He Tengjiao."

Duoduo nodded slightly, "The last time I entered Huguang, I failed to wipe out all the bandits. I let Gao and Li thieves escape into Wushan and escape. Now they take the initiative to go out of the mountain, which is indeed an excellent opportunity to wipe out them."

After Duoduo finished speaking, he waved his hand immediately, "Come on, bring the map!"

A Qing general took the map and spread it in the tent. Everyone was watching. Qing general Shen Zhixiang hurried into the tent and whispered to Duoduo.

Duoduo's expression changed when he heard the words and said in a deep voice, "Let him come in!"

"What's the matter with the prince?" Kong Youde and others were puzzled.

Duoduo waved his hand, "The Regent sent someone here, I don't know what happened."

Soon, Shen Zhixiang led a man in. Everyone looked closely and saw that the person coming was Fan Wencheng.

"Prince Yu." Fan Wencheng saluted Duo after entering the account.

Duoduo sat upright in the position of commander and did not get up, and asked casually: "The Regent asked you to come to Huguang, what's the matter?"

Fan Wencheng hurriedly took out a letter of order and submitted it to him, and then said in a deep voice: "Report to Prince Yu, the slave is here because of the pirates and cholera in Shandong. The regent wants the prince to return to the army to help and clean up the situation in Shandong."

"Shandong cholera pirates in Shandong?" Duoduo frowned.

Fan Yongcheng said: "It's the Zhao Ming and Zhao Iron Band. This giant bandit first entered the Huai River, then went north to invade Shandong, defeating the Beilemanda Sea soldiers. The Shandong bandits took advantage of the situation, and the situation in Qilu was already deteriorating."

"How did Zhao Zamao do it? How could he go to Shandong?" Duoduo looked puzzled and was quite angry. I swept away the thief army in eastern Zhejiang. The thief army in eastern Zhejiang had been crippled by the king. Why did the bandits emerge again as soon as I left. Boluo was killed and his troops were divided. Now Mandahai was defeated again. It is difficult for the Qing Dynasty to be without me?

Fan Wencheng hurriedly explained: "Prince, the pirates came in on a boat. The court did not expect that the people in Shandong are rebelling now, and only the prince can handle the situation."

"A Zhao Zamao actually forced my Qing Dynasty into this! Well, let me deal with him!" Duoduo stood up helplessly and arrogantly.

...

On December 25th, the Little New Year, there was no joy in Changsha City as the New Year approached, and pessimism spread rapidly in the city.

At this time, outside the Huguang Governor's Office, a large number of gentry and civilians gathered and blocked the gate of the government office.

Many gentry were excited. They heard that He Tengjiao was about to escape, so they came to the Governor's Office to ask if it was true.

In the Governor's Office, everyone was sitting on a chair. He Tengjiao was very angry and was angry. He scolded his subordinates and asked who leaked the news that he was about to retreat to Hengyang.

In the official hall, Hao Yaoqi said in a deep voice: "Duxian asked the Dufu Army for help. The Dufu Army supervised the Zhongzhen Camp. As soon as he returned to Changde, the troops forced Yiyang, we suddenly retreated south, this..."

The northern comfort Fu Shangrui was stern and looked like Shangguan, "General Hao, Governor Xian has his own consideration of Governor Xian. Now Duoduo is strong and powerful, and it is difficult to resist. If we don't take advantage of the loyal camp to attract Duoduo's attention, we should retreat south quickly. How could there be such an opportunity in the future?"

He Tengjiao agreed with Fu Shangrui's idea. If he didn't leave now and the Qing army attacked Changsha with all his might, he wouldn't be able to leave. As for the Zhongzhen Camp, the remnants of the thieves, the loss points were not bad.

"Okay!" He Tengjiao had a gloomy face, "The Qing army is powerful, and this governor decided to evacuate and preserve its strength. No one of you will say anything more!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Jinzhong broke in happily and said anxiously: "Duxian, the Qing army outside the city has withdrawn!"

He Tengjiao was stunned when he heard the words, and everyone in the hall was also very surprised. Hao Yaoqi said, "Can you go to Yiyang?"

Ma Jinzhong shook his head and said, "Scouts report that the Qing army is retreating to Yuezhou!"

This makes people unable to understand. Duoduo has obvious advantages, so why did he suddenly retreat to Yuezhou?

But it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, as long as the Qing army retreats, He Tengjiao was suddenly overjoyed, “Hurry, send a quick horse to report the victory to the court!”
